The question of peace or war in
Russia is considered by many Euro
pean diplomats and financiers IL ques-
ton Of money" says the Minneapolis
Tribune. ''it is assumed that neither
power can maintain war long enough
to accomplish any result without
placing Il large loan. The peace MAX
ing powers have been doing their best
to prevent this. The British govern
ment has sternIy discouraged the
placing of Japanese loan in London
and is said to have been able to in
duce the French government to pre-
vent the placing of Russian loan in
Paris. 1t is not certain. however. that
either power would persist in DENYING
its ally financial assistance after war
actually broke out" Modern wars are
enormously expensive. This is one
thing that makes them so short. Many
doubt if we shall ever again see a war
between TWO civilized powers last
more than a year.

Another scoundreI Escapes.

Bank Wrecker Frank {. Adams has
been released from prison by Gov.
Bliss of Michigan after serving only a
rev months of his sentence. although
sent up for ID years. He wrecked the
City Savings bank of Detroit and got
away with $1.6OO.OO0 of the depositors'
money.
1t is charged. and doubtless truth
fully. that there are politics back of
the action of Gov. Bliss. Adams was
Il way-np republican politician in his
time. and it is stated that il was
through pressure from his former as
sociates that he was released by Bliss.
1t is just such actions as this that
bring our judicial system into dis
Tepute. and make il. in many in
stances. Il stencil in the nostrils of de-
cent citizens. There is apparently no
excuse for the governors action. An
drews was fairly tried and convicted.
according to his just deserts, vet after
a few months service he is paroled
out and let To go at liberty.
The fact that this was done in Mich
igan affords some explanation for the
action of Gov. Bliss. for everything
pertaining to politics in that republi-
can state is rotten to the core. Mich
igan-if possible-is worse than Penn
sylvania in some features of its BLING
partisanship.

million more dollars than it ought.
And the governor rebukes the shame

ganization' products and calls upon
the people TO observe and reward his
remarkable virtue,
Any house put together right, with

ielly-fish as speaker in the chair,
would have trimmed that million in a
sensible, discriminating way. 1t
would have been done so the $235,000

Yates and His Vetoes.

Macomb Bystander: Gov. Yates is
making the welkin ring between sobs
about his vetoes of 81 OO0.O0 of appro-
priations made by the last legislature.
He says his vetoes were needfuI to
save the people from spending that
much more money than was neces-
sary.
For four years before the last legis-
lature no such extravaganza was
shown. When Tanner was governor
and Sherman was speaker in 1899 no
such wholesale vetoes were required
to protect the people. In 1901, when
Hon. George {. Rankin. of Monmouth.
was chairman of the house appropria-
ton committee and Lawrence Y. Sher-
man was speaker even our lachrymose
governor did not feel moved to veto
ANYTHING. He did not control those
legislatures.
Who organized and controlled the
last house?
The governor did. by grace of the
plundered pay-rolls of blind asylums
ana hospitals for the insane, pure food
ins pectors traded for votes in a re-
publicau caucus. ) per cent hold-ups

ing is Walking through Korea" which
is the story Of a tramp over the coun-
try with pen pictures of the people
and some excellent photographs that
bring them and the country pretty
clear to the reader. But. perhaps
the most fascinating article in this
number is Beating the Wind on a

ing the daring runs down the noun

begins the first of his articles on the
recent attempt to ascend Mt McKin-
ley. This is quite the most eXtraordin-
airy series of papers to have been
published. for besides the thrilling
experience in exploration. they tell
of those human experiences which are
usually not set down in print by eX-
plorers. Mr. Dunn's article is a hui
man document frankly recorded. The
Silent Places the best serial Stew
art Edward White has ever written
enters upon its most thrilling part in
this number and other fiction is Dis
persion of BiIkington.' an amusing
and exciting incident of the American
occupation of Pekin. Speaking of hui
man documents. the article On''The
Irishman and his Horse" which Vance
Thompson went to Dublin to prepare
for Outing. is of absorbing interest
with its living photographs. Living
photographs may be said to be a
striking note of this January number
for it is full of them from first to
last. Some practical papers that will
appeal to different kinds of outdoor
people are the discussion of Higher
Power in Automobiles by the famous
chauffeur Fournier; How to Make
Plain Sleds and Bob SIeds;" the com
parison of the 'Show Dogs of America

important contribution to this number
Is The Story of the Shot Gun" pre-

Result of Double Lynching and Kill

Last Summer.
ARE CHARCEDW WITH MURDER

Basin City, Wyo., Oct. 26.-There
is great excitement here tonight re-
sulting from the reported findings OF
the grand jury, called to investigate
the lynching of ]. P. Walters and
James German and the murder OF
Deputy Earl Price, who was killed by
a mob at the county jail last July.
The grand jury, it is alleged, will in
dict George Saban, G. F. Mackenzie
and James Patlock, all prominent and
leading citizens of the Big Horn basin.
1t is said Milo Burke, another leading
and wealthy stockman, may also be
indicted.
Sixteen witnesses from Shell creek
were examined and all are being held
pending further Investigations. Smith
Bros, one Of whom was the first, it is
said, to divulge the names OF members
Of the mob, and Willis Dietmar, who
was held up by the mob on the night
of the lynching and compelled to ac-
company the party, were also examin-
ed and all are said to have given the
authorities some startling informal
ton.
The outcome of the affair is diff
cult to forecast. All sorts OF rumors
are afoat here. Talk of lynchings
fill the air.
The accused are indignant that they
have been drawn into the affair, and
all will put up a strong fight to free
themselves of the charge against
them. 1t is possible that Sheriff
Fenton may find it necessary to call
for a large number of special deputies
| to assist in arresting the alleged
members of the mob, as he did in the
case of the arrest and transfer OF
the desperate, Jim McCloud, from
the Thermopolis Jail to Basin.
There appear to be two factions

HIS CHARIOT IS ATTACHED
DEPUTY SHERIFF PUTS ELIJAH
ON FOOT.
Attachment Served at Instance OF
Lawyer Who Defended Zionist
in Criminal Court.

New York, Oct. 26.-The usual early
morning service Of the Zion restora-
ton host in Madison Square garden
today was attended by a large crowd
of Zion citizens, with a small sprink-
ling of outsiders. Dowie attended
the meeting and spoke for a short
time. Today begins the last week OF
the hosts restoration work in this
city.
An attachment was served ON Dow
les coach and team. AS the vehicle
was being driven past the Fifth Ave
nue. hotel a deputy sheriff jumped on
the drivers seat, served the attach
ment on the coachman, seized the
coach and team and drove off with
them. The attachment is said to be
for $1,000 and was secured by Attor-
ney Robert E. Farley, his claim being
for services rendered in defending j.
Luther Pierson of White Plains, a for
mer Zionite, who was convicted for
dllOWlu6 LIS CAlIu w OlO WNCuOuI AAOuA-
cal attendance.
In his morning address today Dowie
said that he had no right to the name
of Dowie and that he did not know
who his own father was. The occasion
for the statement was certain letters
published by q morning newspaper
purporting to show that Dowie had
cast off his own father. Years ago,
Dowie said, he had a painful reveal
ton made to him that John Murray
| Dowie, to whom the letters were writ
ten, was not his father. He said the
| elder Dowie handed him certain docu-
ments on which he would speak to-
night. Dowie declared that he was
glad the matter vas out as the letters
had been in the hands OF certain par
ties for years. During his address
he again denounced the newspapers
and demanded the establishment OF
a censorship to protect clergymen,
politicians, judges and business men
from newspaper attack.
The house to house visitation in
Jersey City by the Dowieites was be-
gun today.

tics at Miles City.


tics at Miles City.
Miles City, Oct. 26.-The enjoiners
have got to work on the water ex-
tension to the Yellowstone and have
secured an order from Judge Loud,
through Attorney I. j. Porter, in
which Mayor Andrus and the city
council and the Union Bank and Trust
company of Helena, who purchased
the bonds, are cited to appear and
show cause why an injunction against
the spending of the $4,000 voted in
April, 1902, for the extension OF h
city water system to the Yellowstone
river should not be issued. The con-
tention of the enjoiners is that at the
election in which the bonds were voted
every voter qualified to vote at a gen
eral election who wished to vote was
permitted to do so. They contend
that this is contrary to the constitu-
ton and statutes, a. they provide
that at any election to incur a debt
over and above the ) per cent limit
allowed for sewer and light improve
ments must be by the taxpayers only.
In this case it is claimed the debt
incurred amounted to 10 per cent
over the 8 per cent limit, and not only
were many who were not taxpayers
allowed to vote, but there were So
| women taxpayers who were disfran-
chised.
The anne Of w. B. Jordan and
Mrs. Fannie Courtenay appear as the
compliments.
