COLOMBIA ENTERS
VIGOROUS PROTEST
Objects to Attitude of United
States in Recognizing Re-
public of Panama.
TEXT WAS NOT MADE PUBLIC
Conditions on the lsthmus May
Lead to Trouble Between the Uni
ted States and the Government Of
Colombia.

Washington, Nov. 9.-It was learn
cd in official circles last night that the
United States of Colombia has lodged
a protest against the action of the
United States in connection with the
events which have occurred on the
isthmus of Panama. The terms Of
the protest could not be ascertained
last night, but it is known that strong
objection is made to the attitude Of
the United States in general and
against interpretations made by this
government of the treaty of 1916 be-
tween the United States of America
and the United States of Colombia.
The state department has the protest
under serious consideration, but the
nature of its reply, if any, or the time
when it will be made is not known.
Rather than admitting that such a
document had been filed in the state
department, the officials there will
say nothing about the matter.

TO TEST ANTITRUST LAW.

Council Bluffs, Nov. 6.-For the
first time since Iowa's antitrust law
was enacted it is to be put to test
in an important suit. In a controversy
involving more than $4,000, the Port.
land Gold Mining company, an Iowa
corporation, is resisting the collection
Bridge company because the latter
company is alleged to be a trust and
an integral part of the great United
States Steel corporation.
The mining company admits the
purchase Of the steel but it declares
it was not in accordance with contract
and further, that the American Bridge
company, from which it was bought
is included in the billion dollar steel
trust, organized April l, 1901, for the
purpose of combining in one great
trust or pool all the large iron and
steel manufacturing and bridge build
ing companies in the United States,
controlling and regulating prices, re.
pressing competition and monopoliZ.
ing business, controlling 213 plants
and factories, thousands of mines.
several hundred ocean and lake
steamships, hundreds of thousands of
acres of lands, 10000 coke ovens and
thousands of miles of pipe lines and
railroads, and that this combination
is engaged in manufacturing and sell.
ing products in Iowa.
The Iowa legislature enacted a
statute, sections 5000, 5061, 5062, 5000
and 1904 Of which declare that any
trust or combination for the purpose
of regulating, or fixing or limiting pro-
duction Is conspiracy and this stat
ute Is asserted to provide that this
shall be deemed a defense against
any claim by such conspiracy or trust
for goods or merchandise sold.
The answer sets up that under this
statement of facts and Iowa law the
bridge company is not entitled to re.
cover the amount of its claim even if
II was justly owed.

TendenCy of the Times.

The tendency of medical science Is
toward preventive measures. The
best thought OF the world is being
given to the subject. 1t is easier and
better to prevent than to cure. 1t has
been fully demonstrated that pneu-
monia, one OF the most dangerous
diseases that medical pen have to
contend with, can be prevented by
the use OF Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Pneumonia always results
from d cold or from an attack OF in
fuenza grip, and it has been OBJ
served that this remedy counteracts
any tendency of these diseases to-
ward pneumonia. This has been
fully proven in many thousands of
cases in which this remedy has been
used during the great prevalence OF
colds and grip in recent years, and
can be relied upon with implicit con-
fidence. Pneumonia often results
from slight cold when no danger 1s
apprehended until it is suddenly dis
covered that there is fever and d1fh-
Guilty in reathing and pains IN the
chest, then it is announced that the
patient has pneumonia. Be on the
safe side and take Chamberlain :
Cough Remedy as soon as the cold IS
contracted. 1t always cures. For

THE Legislature had little fun
with Willie Hearst last week. The
members passed resolution eulo-
giving Hearst for his action in the
coal strike in the East, and also
giving him some taffy about nomi-
mating him for President in 1904.
This news was rushed over the
wires to Hearst and he immediate
ly telegraphed back $3.50 for the
members to have a drink on. We
expect that Sam Davis, the keenest
Joker in the fusion ranks, engi-
neered this scheme to get Willie
to set up the wine. The absurdity
of the whole thing has probably
not struck the gang with full force
vet, but as a matter of relaxation
from the strenuous labors of the
members the play was a pretty
neat one.

it will, but there are things about
it, which seem to us will not work
well. However, the measure is
now a law and those whom it may
injure will have to take their med

THE county seat of Nye county
will probably be changed from
Belmont to Tonopah by the pres
ent session of the Legislature, as
it should be. The people of
Churchill county have also nu-
merously signed petition asking
the Legislature to call special
election in that county so the peo-
pie can vote on the question of
moving the county seat from st.
Clair to Fallon, a new town which
has sprung up in the center of
that county, and which is only
sixteen miles from the railroad.
Both of these changes would be
of great benefit to the people of
the above named counties. It
would not be out of the way for
Lyon county's representatives to
make provision for the people of
Lyon to vote at the next general
election on the proposition of
moving the county seat of Lyon
from Dayton to Yerington, the
place where it will eventually be.
This would not entail the expense
of special election.
