BATTLE MONUMENT.
One Unveiled at Lake George In
Presence Of Thousands.

Lake George, N. Y, Sept. SIN the
presence of thousands of excursionists
from New York, Vermont, Massa-
chusetts and Connecticut representa-
tives of patriotic societies of New York
and England, Representatives of the Off
cial life of these states, the governors
OF New York, Vermont, Massachusetts,
and Connecticut, stationed the four
corners of the battle monument, pulled
the fastening which unveiled today the
bronze memorial of the battle of Lake
George AS the canvas which had hid
den the figures dropped, the guns of
the first battery sent forth a national
salute.
The bronze figures of the monument
were designed by Albert Weinert, the
sculptor, and represent the Indian
chieftain, Chief Hendricks, demonstrat-
ing to General Johnson the futility of
dividing his forces. The figures which
stand on a granite pedestal are nine
feet high.
The monument stands in the center
of Battle park, overlooking the lake. On
the east face is the following inscrip-
ton:
''1903-The Society of the Colonial
Wars erected this monument 10 COM
memorate the victory of the colonial
forces under General Johnson and the
Mohawk allies under Chief Hendrlck
over the French regulars, commanded
by Baron Dieskau. with the Canadian
and Indian allies"
On the south face 1t reads: Defeat
would have opened the road to Albany
to the French"
On the north face: coincidence in
spired by the victory was of inestim-
able value to the American army in the
war of the revolution"
On the west face are the words:
Battle of Lake George. September s,
17as"
The days ceremonies began with a
review of the troops by the quartette
of governors.
Following the review Governor Odell
held an impromptu reception.

PLINY SOPER REPLIES.
q. s. Attorney Files Answer to
Charges Made Against Him.

Washington, Sept. S.-The department
of justice has received from Pliny Soper,
United States attorney for the northern
district of Indian Territory, an answer
to the allegations which have been made
against him to the effect that he has
been interested in leasing and releasing
Indian lands, etc. Mr.. Soper admits
that he is connected with one company,
the Tribal Development company of
Tisehomingo, but says that it is not Ill
his district. being in the southern dis
trict~ of the territory.
He denies that the company has done
or is doing anything that is unlawful
or in any way reprehensible. The de-
partment has ordered still another spe-
cial agent into that territory and will
investigate Mr.. Soper's statement 1t
also will make an investigation of each
of the federal officers in the four dis
tricts of the territory against whom
any derogative statements have been
made

CASE OF ELMER MUND1N.

The case of Mundin who pleaded guilty
to manslaughter in the district court
Monday offers an excellent temperance
lecture to the young man of today.
'Mundin is an ordinary young man who
was noted for nothing but his dissipa-
ton. While out with a number of COM
panions having a good time" he wan
tonly fired a gun through a door and
killed a young woman. Mundin was
intoxicated. If he had been in his
right mind he would not have shot
through the door. He would not have
taken human life. But the drunken
man never thinks of the any injury he
may infiict on others and when this be-
sotted young man fired his rifle at the
door he not only took one life, but
wrecked another-his own.
1t is useless to point the moral. 1t
must be evident to every one who takes
the trouble to give the case of Elmer
Mundin a single thought. The man who
drinks to excess may injure others, but
he will certainly destroy himself.

TIE COAL INVESTIGATION.

The coal operators have taken steps to
combat every move of the county and
state authorities who are trying to force
them to an accounting. 1t may be that
they have already concluded that they
have gone a little too far in their greed.
When three different meetings of the
coal mine owners in a single month are
followed by three increases in the price
of coal it makes the talk about there
being no coal trust sound rather pecul-
lar, especially when there is no cores
ponding increase of miners wages.
Every man in Topeka is interested in
the outcome of the coal investigation.
Attorney General Coleman and County
Attorney Hungate have gone at the
thing as if they mean business. They
are backed by the laws of the state
and if the coal barons of Kansas can
evade the law and force the people TO
pay exorbitant prices for coal it is time
that the people find it out.
This is a good time to give the Kan
sas antitrust laws a thorough test. On
the face of things it appears that there
has never been a more fragrant violation
of the law. If this is a fact and these
men are guilty they ought to be prose-
cuted with just as much zeal as joint
list or horse thief The fact that a man
is wealthy ought not to make him i'm
mune from prosecution in Kansas and
the people will remember any official
who proceeds on this theory. Equal
rights to all and special privileges to
none is good doctrine.
The investigation has developed the
fact that the retail coal dealers of To-
peka are at the mercy of an organiza-
ton which determines whether they can
have coal to sell and what they shall
pay for it, The coal barons will say
that this is simply an organization for
mutual protection but if forcing people
to pay $1.50 a ton more than coal is
worth is the kind of protection that is
afforded by this organization the coal
consumers want to have something TO

LAST WEEKS WEATHER.
The Official Report of the Govern
ment Bureau.


The following is from the government
climate and crop report for Kansas
issued today by Director Jennings of
the weather bureau:
GENERAL CONDITIONS.
The week has been warm and dry;
the temperature has ranged from 3 de-
grees above normal in the western
counties to slightly below normal in
the eastern. Very light showers-mere
traces-have fallen in several of the
western and northern counties with
slightly better showers in the south
western but over the greater part of
the state no rain has fallen, the weather
being very good for farm work.
EASTERN DIVISION.
Corn is in good condition. Early corn
has matured rapidly this week: cutting
has progressed in the south and has
begun in the central counties. Late
corn has grown rapidly. and is in the
roasting ear stage in the central cOun-
ties, but it needs rain and hot weather
yet. Flowing for fall seeding has been
pushed. until the ground became too
dry and hard. and is now nearly fin
ished. Wheat sowing will begin in
Johnson and Linn this coming week
Haying has been rushed and a large
crop of fine prairie hay is now in the
stack and haying is well nigh ended
for this season The third crop of al
falfa is now in the stack. or NOW. and
is a good crop. Much alfalfa has been
thrashed. but the seed crop was not up
to the usual standard. The English
bluegrass has been threshed in John
son and Marshall. and a large amount
of the seed being marketed; in Marshall
large acreage is being sown to blue
grass. Apples are plentiful in the
south: they are abundant in Shawnee
where they are unusually large and
fine. Grapes are ripening and are a
fair crop. Melons planted in the flood
ed district since the flood are riDe and
are unusually fine Pastures are good.
MIDDLE DIVISION.
Early corn has matured in the south
and is being cut, and in the north is
ripening rapidly; late corn needs hot
weather and rain. Flowing has contin-
ued but in some counties it has been
stopped by the ground being too dry
and hard. Threshing has progressed
rapidly during the week with fair,sre-
suits. Haying has been rushed and
large crop of fine prairie hay has been
put up. Grass and pastures are fine.
The third crop of alfalfa is now in the
stack, a good crop. Forage crops are
fine and are being cut. Apples and
peaches are plentiful in the south.
Grapes are abundant SOUTH light crop
north. Melons are fine.
WESTERN DIVISION.
Early corn is maturing rapidly and
late corn growing rapidly; 1t has been
injured somewhat by drought and high
winds in Decatur and where weedy, in
Thomas, has been dried up. Thrashing
continues, showing good yields of wheat,
rye and barley. Haying is in progress
and a fine crop of prairie hay is being
put up. Pasture, or range grass, has
cured and is now dry enough to burn.
Flowing continues in many parts but in
others the ground is too dry. Forage
crop cutting has begun in the north and
q good crop is being put up. Grapes are
ripening in Norton.

STAMP OUT TYPHOID.

The reassuring reports of the chemists
who have analysed the drinking water
used in Topeka should not tend to throw
people off their guard. There is no es-
Gaping the fact that typhoid fever is
prevalent in Topeka. Physicians all say
that the most frequent source of the
dread disease is impure water. One of
the best physicians in the state informed
the writer that there are about IT'S cases
of typhoid fever in Topeka. If the
water is responsible for typhoid as
scientists and medical men agree much
impure water is now being used in the
city.
One chemist has found that the city
water is practically free from organic
matter and another has ascertained that
the water in the Vinewood well which
it was suspected was infected is in re-
atty unusually pure. Both these re-
ports should not make the people of To-
'peka any less vigflant or careful about
the drinking water. Physicians say
that boiling the water will kill the dis
ease germs and the only safe plan for
all the people, no matter from what
source they secure their drinking water,
is to boil it. 1t may be some trouble,
but it must not be forgotten that eternal
vigilance is the price of health in time
like this.
Physicians say that if the people of
Topeka would drink nothing but boiled
water it would be only a few weeks
until the typhoid is entirely eradicat-
ed Then why not protect yourself and
help stamp out the disease by boiling
your water?

WANTS A LABORATORY.
Food Inspector Farnsworth Can Not
Make Tests

Food Inspector Farnsworth wants the
city to establish a city laboratory for
making chemical tests, and appoint a
city chemist to take charge Of the lab

in which the city can fully protect itself

water.

A most interesting and instructive
comparison is made. says R. G. Dun &
Co, by eliminating from the returns in
each year the few defaults for 800 900 or
more. The balance comprises the large
bulk of disasters, and makes a better
comparison than when a few large losses
distort the record. 1t is found that
seventeen manufacturing insolvencies
provide S546O.2s5, or over o-thirds of
the total liabilities for the PAL defaults
in that class and the average loss to
each small failure was but $1021e, which
is less than the average in five of the
preceding nine years of the decade. Still
better is the exhibit as to traders, five
failures providing s735,OO0 liabilities out
of the total $2,946,352 for the 544 suspen-
sions. Subtracting the few large de-
faults the average loss to each of the
remaining $50 concerns is "a, 102, only
1896 of the previous ten years showing
a smaller average, and in August of that
year there were 757 failures for less than
100000 each, the much larger number
naturally tending to produce a lower
percentage. The large failures elimin-
ated for that month were % in number
and S6,349, 249 in amount. OF all COM
mercial failures in August, 1908, there
were % for over 100000 EACH aggregat-
ing S6195,2S5. leaving an average of
S5927 for the remaining 100 defaults a
lower ratio than in seven of nine pre-
ceding years.
