the federal statutes are to determine
employment in the printing Office and
bindery, and not the rules of the
unions. This is advanced ground, and
it will be iniorsed by conservative
labor union men as well as by the
general public.
Public Printer Palmer announces
that he will not take up the Miller
case for day or two. and perhaps
not then. He is probably waiting until
the president has personally in
vestigated and directs him what to DO.
Chairman Proctor, of the civil SER
vice commission, has gone to Oyster
bay, presumably to consult the presi-
dent about the case. Palmer's de-
olson, it is believed, will represent the
presidents personal views. Had Pal
mer been acting on his own molten, he
would have announced his decision
days ago., The binders union is very

RACINE WILL CONTEST.
Adopted Son of Late William Johnson
Trying to Get Share. A

Racine, Aug. IA lawsuit over the
will OF the late William Morgan john
son from Western Union Junction,
now known as Corliss, who died about
four years ago, is being tried. 1t is
claimed that johnson made two or
three wills, but only one of them,
dated July IA, 1890, can be found, in
which he gave all the property, about
$4,000, to his wife during her life, and
after her death to his step-son Norman.
1t is claimed that in the month of jan
uary, 1897, a will was drawn up and
signed by William Johnson giving the
entire property to his wife, and that
later he drew up another will giving
the entire property to his adopted son.
He decided all the property to his wife
some time in 1897 and the adopted son
is now trying to prove that, at the time
he decided the property, johnson was
not of sound mind. Many people in
the surrounding country have come to
testify as To the mental state of John
son.
