The Indian creation Legend.

The earliest source for the religion
Of India is the hymns Of the Rig Veda,
the date of which is now fixed ut about
1000 B. c. In one Of these hymns we
encounter as the creator Purusha. who
is simply "mnrniiied man. a pan
theistic turn. however, Is given to this
conception under the Influence of
which Purusl becomes the "all in all"
and is identified with the universe.

All gods, animals and castles are parts
Of him. The moon is his mind, the sun
his eye from his mouth sprang lndra
and Agni and from his breath Nayu,
space from his navel. heaven from his
head and the earth from his feet This
emanation theory when freed from It's
primitive elements becomes pantheism
pure and simple. In accord with this
view the source Of creative activity Is
carried back i'm other hymns to de

Which Motion Will be Heard
and Decided Next Monday.
q. K Press OF Wednesday:
Senator George Il. Nichols was ar
ranged in the Superior court this
morning on the charge of subornation
OF perjury. Assistant Prosecuting
Attorney Ward appeared for the peo-
pie and prior to the arraignment
filed the information in the case, Civ
ing the charge indetail. Mr.. Nichols
appeared unaccompanied and was on
hand before either Judge or prosecut-
or had put in an appearance. He
waived the reading of the Informal
ton and pleaded nor guilty to the
charge as made. Stipulation was
made that the privilege of making
any motion in the information which
might be desired on subsequent
perusal, should be granted.
Here are the witnesses endorsed on
the back of the information against
Senator Nichols: Frederick III. Gar
man, Robert A. Cameron, Allen b.
Morse, StilsOn V. Macleod, Arthur
w. Stowe, Chas. f.. Ward, Wesley w.
Hyde, William b Brown, Louis A..
Richter, William Warner, Jacob G.
Johnson, John A Thompson, Loren f..
Jourden, Henry J. Nibbelink, Mrs.
Hamilton, Darr Luther, Joseph Brew
er, Chris Hindelink, Charles McGurrin
and Frank w. Welsh
The names were noted by the re-
spondent and he took a copy of them,
beside ordering a copy of the informa-
tion prepared
The information which was given
out for the first time today when it
was filed follows closely the lines of
the complaint in the case against Mr..
Nicho.s, but it covers the charges
more in detail. 1t charges George +.
Nichols with soliciting and endeavor-
ing to incte and procure Frederick
II Garman TO commit the crime of
perjury" 1t charges that Mr. Mich
OILS gave Garman 81, $50 and that he
promised him $1,000 more after the
evidence demanded should be given.
Every item of the trial to which
Garman swore is related, as that
which he knew and that which was
desired to avoid having come out in
court and then it is separately
charged that the intent was to have
Garman swear in each instance that
each circumstance was not as it was.
In all of this it is charged Mr.. Mich
OILS acted to corruptly, wilfully and
falsely bring about the false condi-
ton desired. Page after page of
typewriter manuscript is given to
making the charges in detail.
Senator Nichols gave notice that he
would make a motion for change OF
venue. Judge Newman, by consent
of both parties, set the motion for
hearing Monday at 10 o'clock. Mr..
| Nichols stated that the reasons for
the change would be the same as
those set up in the McGarry case,
with perhaps the addition of one or
two more affidavits.

AMEND THE CHARTER.

The amendments to the city charter
which the charter commission has
thus far sanctioned must be regarded
with single exception as Of little or
no Importance in the light of the WELL
defined character of the prevailing de-
nand for such amendment. The pub
lie do not give button whether addi-
tional street lights are established by
a two-thirds or a three-fourths vote
Of the board of public works. Indeed,
the proposal to amend the charter in
this respect is little more than frivol-
Gus, in view of the unfavorable atti-
tude which the commission has occu-
pied generally with reference to the
prevailing demands for amendment.
The refusal, too, Of the commission to
sanction an amendment which would
take the control of the collection Of
garbage away from the city engineers
department and place 1t in the hands
Of the health commissioner, where 1t
belongs, has very distinct flavor Of
personal antagonism toward the de-
mands of DR.. Ohage. The same is to
be said with reference to transferring
the charge Of details of sanitation
work, such as the removal of dead ami
mails, from the department of public
works to the health department. In

the one which the friends Of the ma
tional administration who are now
abusing him wish to avoid, viz: that
if that national administration persists
in a like position it will suffer defeat.
Abuse of Gen. Henderson at this
time will answer no good purpose for
the friends Of the Roosevelt admins
tration. The president himself must
meet the situation which Henderson's
withdrawal creates for his party and
for him as it's preferred candidate in
1904. The only way in which 1t can
be successfully met is by his expressed
declaration that the Republican party
in the next congress will give the coun-
try substantial relief from the excess
sive burdens of taxation which are now
imposed upon them through the Dingley
tariff, and in doing so will direct it's
action so as to strike a blow at the
fairfield trusts. The other horn Of
the dilemma on which President Roose-
welt and his party are impaled through
Gen. Henderson's withdrawal Is repre-
scented either by entire silence or by a
frank declaration that no action what
ever is necessary on the part OF the
Republican party or Its national ao-
ministration in the direction OF meet
ing the demand which has so insistent-
ly forced itself upon Speaker Hender-
sons attention.

FURTHER DELAY CRIMINAL.

The conviction is now prevalent that
the tie-up in the production Of an
thracite coal will come to an early end.
There is nothing whatever in the re-
ported facts of the situation which
would give apparent warrant to any
such conclusion. The mine owners are
just as insistent now as they were
five months ago that there is only one
ending to be had of the difficulty, while
the miners are just as insistent that
that end will never be reached. The
prevailing conviction Of an early set
Element must be regarded as the prod
uct, pure and simple, Of the grave and
urgent need, growing more grave and
more urgent each successive hour, that
the people should have placed at their
disposal their winters supply of fuel.
The situation as it exists is an i'm
possible one. 1t is mere blind folly for
President Baer, or his associates, to
say, at this time, that no coal will be
mined until their former employees ac-
cept their terms. The coal must be
mined, whether by their former en-
ployes or new set of employees. 1t
must be mined, if not by those who
control it, then by the commonwealth
in the exercise of it's ultimate sovereign
power.
1t has been stated in the public press
by one Of the officials operating the
mines that If the men were to resume
work at once it would require many
weeks before the necessary anthracite
coal could reach the people as the an
thracite coal bins Of the country are
now entirely empty. In the light of
this fact, if it is a fact, the country may
be regarded as demanding the dis
charge without moments further de-
lay Of the duty Of the mine operators
toward the consuming public. If the
situation is as thus represented, every
additional days delay must result in
adding to the suffering which the peo-
pie must endure with the advance of
the cold weather and the extortion
which will probably be practiced upon
them in the price demanded, at least at
the outset, for their fuel.
