U. P. IS OPEN.
Now Operates Between Topeka
and Kansas City.

Another step has been taken in the
improvement of railway service in and
out of Topeka. After being closed fer
about three weeks on account of wash
outs the Union Pacific main line has
been opened up. and the first through
train was run over that line Tuesday
from Denver to Kansas City, passing
through Topeka at 7:40 p. m, five hours
late. No. s. the west-bound Kansas
City-Denver train. was also run over
the main line. passing through Topeka
at %. m, four hours late. The reg
ular through train service will be re-
sumed today and the trains which have
been running over the Santa Fe be-
tween Salina and Kansas City will be
taken off that line Immediately ami
run over their line. All of the Union
Pacific branch lines are now in running
order with the two exceptions of the
Mania ttan and Junction City branches.
The opening of the Union Pacific
main line is of great importance to the
Rock Island on account of that road
using the Union Pacific tracks between
here and Kansas City. During the time
closed Gown on account of Wash-Outs
the Rock Island has been running its
trains into Kansas City over the Santa
ke tracks, but now that the Union Pa
cific line has been opened for traffic this
system has been discontinued. The
Rock Island ran two trains into Kansas
city over the Union Pacific tracks
yesterday. Their last train into Kan
sas City over the Santa Fe left here
Monday evening.
The Rock Islands Salina line has
not yet been opened for service. This
is the only line over which trains can
not be run. The officials stated today
that it would be ready about the last
of the week The line would probably
have been repaired now had not the
gang of men who were doing the work
become dissa tis6ed with their wages
and gone out on strike They were.

manded - a day and 80 cents an hour
for all overtime work. The company
was willing to compromise and raise
their WAGES to $1.75 a day This offer
was refused. and the company dis
charged the whole gang and put an
other gang to work. The gang which
was discharged consisted of about rs
nsn.
The Santa F'e is now able to use the
entire main line. The break in the Ens.
between Kansas City and Lexington
junction has been repaired and the
system of detouring trains by way of
the Burlington has ceased. The Leav.
enWorth line is now the only line that
remains closed The officials say. how

Berlin June 1.-THE Socialists vic

The failure of either of the radical

then their candidates will be supported

unless the revolution on the Isthmus
is chrushed at once, which seems very
improbable, representative of the
new republic OF Panama will no doubt
soon be on his way to Washington to
take up direct negotiations for the con-
struction of the trans-Isihmian water
way. Our State Department is much
Embarrassed as to the attitude it should
adopt toward this State which has
seeded from the Colombian union.
The administration is anxious to build
the canal and the majority of the
American people will doubtless SYM
pathize with Panama, yet this country
should not encourage strife among the
South American republics. The Sc
cession Of Panama was more or less
expected here as the interests ON that
State and Colombia are in many ways
opposed to each other and their geo.
graphical connections is not close
one. If Colombia should finally rec.
ognize the independence OF Panama,
there would be no objection to our
treating direct with the latter coun-
try, or even guaranteeing its indepen-
dence. If by any chance 1t might de-
eide to become a part OF our posses
sions, no one could toretell the politi-
col effects of our getting possession of

George Drake, who lives on the
road to Tenino, had valuable dog
shot by two hunters for dog salmon,
and they were arrested by Deputy
Sheriff Guyot, Monday, at Mud Bay,
on complaint of Drake, and brought
to town for trial. 1t seems, however,
that the hunters compromised the
matter with Drake, out OF court, with
out SO much as saying to the Judge
"by your leave" and afterwards found
that he was in for bill Of costs that
amounted to more than the sum re-
ceived in settlement. His opinion of

seems, however, that their course laid

until they struck midship and shat

engagement, Roberts came out minus

Death Of Aaron hartsock.

Aaron Hartsock, one OF our pioneer
residents, died Monday, at the hospital
where he was undergoing treatment
for general debility. doubtless greatly
aggravated by severe siege of grippe
a couple of years ago, as he has been
constantly ailing since that experience.
He had lately been in a rapid decline
and the end was not unexpected. De-
ceased was born in Columbus, Ohio,
Oct. 18th, 1880. When he was ten
years OF age his parents removed to
Iowa, where he resided until he came
to this country in 1873. His brother,
Gallatin Hartsock, was q pioneer and
resided on a donation claim a few
miles east OF this city. Aaron was
placed in charge of the farms on
Puyallup reservation, as instructor in
that branch of industry, soon after his
arrival, and when that service expired
returned to this city. He was en-
ployed for a time. in several of the
mercantile establishments, and served
two terms as Cononer and at death
held the position of deputy in that
Office. His wife died in February,
1898. He had four children, only two
of whom survive him, married daugh-
tiers, one residing here aud the other
in Iowa.
Mr.. Hartsock was Mason in good
standing, and that order conducted
the burial services at the grave in
their cemetery, Wednesday afternoon,
the sermon having been preached in
the Presbyterian church, by Rev. DR..
