.GRIGSBY WILL
HAVE FAIR. PLAY
The President Will Stand by Him
Until All Charges Are
Proven.
Attorney General Knox Thought to
Be Unfriendly to the
Rough Rider.

Washington, Nov. 26.-The history
of last winters trip to Washington of
Melven Grigsby, United States marshal
at Nome, points to very hard shedding
on his part in his present difficulties,
unless there is a very radical change in
the attitude of the department Of jus
tice. 1t will be recalled that at that
time Grigsby was charged with hav-
ing absented himself from his post
without leave of absence. So con-
WINGED was Attorney General Knox of
the truth of the charge that he went
so far as to recommend to the presi-
dent that Grigsby be dismissed. But
hard work on the part of Grigby's
friends prevented the president from
removing him, and he went back to
Nome last spring with clear skirts, and
no charges on file at the department.
Just before the season closed in
1902, Grigsby had some cases pending
before the federal court at Nome in
which the evidence of certain per-
sons residing In the states was needed.
He wrote the department., asking for
leave of absence, without stating his
reasons for wanting to leave the
country. Later he informed the de-
partment of the necessity for securing
the evidence to complete his cases', and
reply to the second letter first, in
which he was instructed to use his own
Judgment. Later a denial of his appli-
cation for leave of absence reached
him. In a quandry, and the season
being nearly closed, he acted on his
best Judgment and came to the states
and got a lot of evidence, which he
carried back to Nome this spring.
Upon arriving at Washington he was
confronted with the departments de-
NAL Of permission to leave Nome and
asked to give his reasons for leaving.
which he did, but that was not salts
factory, and his removal was recon-
mended for disobedience Of regulations
and the specific orders of the depart
ment.
President Roosevelt, however, after
hearing all the evidence, decided that
| Grigsby should remain in the service.
Going back a year or two to the time
when Grigsby was appointed II his
present position, it can be stated on
authority that it was done in opposi-
| ton to the wishes of Attorney General
Knox, who only consented to the NOM
nation after the president put the
matter on personal grounds. and asked
| the attorney general to reward Colonel
| Grigsby for his service in the Spanish
war.

Roosevelt Is determined that Justice
shall be done him, and no radical &C.

will take strong proof to convince him

Bill to Meet Move.
Such an act Representative Morrell
of Pennsylvania is trying to put upon
the statute books. His bill forbids
discrimination by common carriers
on account of race or color, making
it an offense punishable by $1,000 fine
for carriers to provide separate cars
for either white or colored passengers.
There is long line of decisions on
questions arising within debatable
ground, where the courts have been
very careful to specify that the right
of a state to impose certain reguIa-
lions upon railroads crossing its jul
risdiction was complete Gin the alb
sence of any law Of congress- to the
contrary It seems probable, on the
face of it, that such a proviso would
be held to govern a case of mere race
discrimination as manifested in jim
Grow car law.
Whether Mr.. Morrell, or any other
member Of congress. will ever be able
to put thru prohibitory measure is
open to grave doubt. Congress does
not take kindly, even in these CEN
tralizing days, to the idea of limit
ing further the sovereignty of the
states. There will always be found
a large element in the membership of
both houses who, either openly or in
secret and by indirection, will stand
for the preservation of state rights

We have been waiting for the
Leader to reply to the claims of the
Miner that lot 5 on section 6 was
coal land, when everybody who
knows anything about the locality
knows that the land in question is
a big, fiat coulee, that cannot be
called either farming or coal land.
It must be.that in referring to coal
lands Harris was speaking of the
Nj Of the NE4 of section 8, town.
IA, range 50, which was fled on
some time ago by Fred L. Harris
as agricultural land, when he knew
that it was coal land. And he has
stated since that as soon as he
proved up he intended to open a
coal mine on the land. Harris
must have read the oath that he
has been publishing in his paper,
and yet he swears that the land he
has taken is not coal land, and
swears to it without a culver. But
then Harris is used to swearing to
that he thinks is nee
essary. Il. d.

This is one of the years when
the work of the good farmer plainly
shows. You can look around in every
locality and see at least a few farm
ers who had a splendid paying crop
and what is the reason2 Simply
because thew put their ground i'll
good. shape, saw that the seed was
good and put in at the right time.
No man a expect to reap a big
harvest if he plows his ground any
time and in any style to get it
done, and then SOW his seed in the
middle of the summer. The best
way in the long run is to farm
what you can, and farm it right,
You will make more money in the
long run.-Edmore Herald.

The New Speaker.

If you are one of those who have
regarded "Uncle Joe" Cannon, the
speaker of the house, as a rough
and ready old western farmer, with
out much social grace or inclina-
ton to acquire it, you have an
agreeable surprise coming to you,
For Mr.. Cannon has taken a hand
some house, 1O14. Vermont avenue,
and purposes to restore his high
office to it's earlier social promin-
ence His home will be presided
over by his daughter, a lovely and
accomplished woman we'll fitted to
adorn any social circle. The home
Of the Cannons in Danville, ILL.,, is
one of the most substantial and
comfortable in the town, and a
handsome palace withal.
"Uncle Joe" is not one of the
statesmen who are also millionaires
but he has a tidy competence laid
by, and he enjoys life thoroughly,
too. Most Of all, he enjoys his
work. And in this respect he does
answer pretty closely to the "hard
headed old western farmer" de.
scription. He is keen and practi.
cal, and has strong likes and dis.
likes, but is noted for his sense Of
fair play. He won't use the vas
power his new office gives him tx
punish his political foes, but hi
gets the best results for the coun
try, as he understands them.--No
