WOULD HOIST A NEW
REPUBLICAN BANNER
Party Men in Delaware Favor New
Organization.

WILMINGTON, Del, June 15.-Al-
the next Delaware election. the Regular
Republicans are laying plans for that
fight, which fact has set the Addlcks
people to thinking again.
Immediately following the recent city
election there came statements from
mon high in the Addicks party that the
Regulars had been crushed and that
they would never again be factor in
Delaware politics. but nothing could be
further from the truth.
Regular leaders say they were never
mere determined than now to save the
Republican party of Delaware to the
good peopiS If the State, and TO this end
there is being quietly organized in New
Castle county a party OF independent
Republicans. who In a short time Will
organize county committee to step into
the party breach and declare itself to be
a new organization for whose candi-
dates all Republicans can vote.
Il is nothing more than a scheme to
head off Addicks in his race for United
States Senatorship, TO obtain which 1t is
certain he will split the party two years
hence, feeling, as he did in the recent
city election, that his party can win
without the aid of the Regulars.
In this new movement many men who
heretofore followed Addicks are inter
ested. Senator Ball, it is understood,
looks with favor on the organization OF
the new party. 1t has been whispered
that even Senator Alice realizes that
the Republican party Of Delaware is
hcpelessly divided, and that unless Ad-
dicks lays aside his political personality
for the sake of the party at large Della
ware will not be found in the Republic
car ranks for many years.
The assurance of the Regulars that
there will be an independent party two
years hence will have the effect of caus-
Ing all voters in this county to register.
At this time the names of 1000 Of VIII
mington Republicans do not appear in
the registration books. they having
seen that II is useless to vote so long
as Addicks insists on his one-man rule.

Fighting Joe" Denies Stories of Ill
Treatment in New Orleans

NEW ORLEANS, June 16.-Gen. JOS
eph Wheeler has written a letter TO Gen.
James Dickins, who was In charge of
the Confederate reunion here, denying
the truth of certain dispatches which
were sent from here and from Atlanta
in the course of the reunion.
He mentioned the fact, well known by
local newspaper men. that he did not
wear a uniform Of any kind while here
and therefore could not have been in
anlted because he appeared in a regu-
lar army uniform
He also points out that he had pur-
chased his Pullman ear ticket TO New

fore could not possibly have been .Ieav-

PRESIDENT REPLIES
TO JEWS PROTEST

throughout. this country. without any re-
gard to creed whatsoever, of horror and
sympathy over what has occurred. 1t
is gratifying TO know, what we would,
of course assume that the govern
ment OF Russia shows the feelings Of
horror and indignation with which the
American people look upon the outrages
at kishinev, and is moving vigorously
not only to prevent their continuance.
but to punish the perpetrators. That
government takes the same view OF
those outrages that our own Govern
ment takes of the riots and lynchirgs
which sometimes occur in our country,
but do not characterize either our Gov
ernment or our people.
Il have been visited by the Russian
ambassador on his own initiative. and in
addition 10 what has been said to Score
tary Hay the ambassador has notified me
personally, without any inquiry upon my
part. that the governor of Kishinev has
been removed; that between 800 and 400
of the participants in the outrages have
been arrested: and he voluntarily stated
that those men would be punished to
the utmost that the law would permit
Personal Sympathy Expressed.
Il will consider most carefully the
suggestions that you have submitted 10
me, and whether the now existing con
ditions are sucE that any further on
cial expression would be of advantage
to the unfortunate survivors with whom
We sympathize so deeply. Nothing that
has occurred recently has had my more
constant thought, and nothing will have
my more constant thought, than this
subject. In any proper way by which
beneficial action may DE taken it will be
taken, to show the sincerity Of the his
toric American position OF treating each
man on his merits as a man without the
least reference TO his creed, his race,
or his birthplace. TApplause.l

NOT DRUGS
Food Did 1t.

IOOu OlQ IL.
After using laxative and cathartic
medicines from childhood a case OF
chronic and apparently incurable consti-
patton yielded TO the scientific food
GrapeNuts in a few days. From early
childhood l suffered with such terrible
constipation that / had to use laxatives
continuously going from one drug to
another and suffering more or less all
the time.
"A prominent physician whom l con-
suited told me the muscles Of the d.
gestiye organs were partially paralyzed
and could not perform their work with
out help OF some kind. so / have tried at
different times about every laxative and
cathartic known but found no help that
was at all permanent. l had finally be-
come discouraged and had given my case
up as hopeless when / began TO use the
predigested food Grape Nuts.
Although l had not expected this
food to help my trouble to my great sur
prise Grape-Nuts digested Immediately
from the first and in a few days | was
convinced that this was just what my
system needed.
The bowels performed their functions
regularly and l am now completely and
permanently cured OF this awful trouble

must be unlimited" Name given by

country in that they bring in thou
sands of cattle to occupy the vacant
land. They may by drilling wells
and establishing watering stations
open up thousands of acres of graz
ing land that was formerly inacces-
sible to stock because there was no
water there, and certainly it is bet
ter TO have the grass eaten off by
stock than burned off by fire. But
when ranch, such as the Dewey
ranch, starts out to encompass the
earth by fences, enclosing every lit
tie ranch, every vacant quarter and
every occupied quarter, and then
undertakes to run the little men out
of the country by eating his grass,
drinking his water, devouring his
crops and overawing him with threats
and slx-shooters, and ends up by
numbering four men, who refused to
be inundated, one is almost in
clined to wish that the villains might
fall into the hands of an outraged
populace and be shown the same
brand of mercy that they handed
out to old man Berry and his three
brave boys.-SYracuse Journal.

Mondays Review.


For the first time since the food
we feel satisfied in furnishing your
readers with market report. Our
first sales were made a week ago
last Sunday, and each succeeding
day has shown an improvement.
We are now fully prepared to handle
all kinds of stock to as good an adj
vantage as other markets. Kansas
City will hold her own; this does
not apply to the Quarantine Divis-
ion, as it will be a week or the days
before conditions are normal and
business commences in that part of
the yards. During this time three
bridges will be completed over the
Kaw River, and the packing houses
on the Kansas side thoroughly Glen
ed up and fully equipped for work.
The estimated run of cattle here
today is about 2, 900 head, bulk of
the offerings consisting of killing
cattle. All the packers were in the
market with the exception of Swift
& Co: Prices ruled active at 10
cents advance. No fat choice
steers here, top sold at S4.o5, with
bulk of sales at 81. 90 to s4.Ss.
Butcher stuff was higher also, good
corn fat COWS selling at S3,S5 to a..
medium $3.50 to S3.75 and fair
grades at $500 to $3.50. Best
heifers sold at $40 to S4.7s. med
ium, SAL to $40; fair grades,
1915 to s4.o
Hog receipts, 1000, trade ruled
active, with prices steady to five
lower. The weakness was on the
heavy hogs, light and mixed selling
steady to strong. We quote the
bulk ofsales at S5.75 to $500, top
S5.92-H. Our Mr.. Cave made the
sale. Chicago reports so, 900 head
and five to ten cent lower market,
generally ten lower.

Up in Cheyenne county last week
old man Berry and his three grown
sons were shot by the Dewey ranch
outfit, the father and two of the bows
were killed and the other son
was seriously wounded. Local SEN
timent, which is a pretty safe index
as to the merits of the case, is so
strong against the Deweys that the
sheriff was compelled to hide his
prisoners in another county to keep
them from being lynched by the
people of the neighborhood, and the
governor sent out a company OF
militia to protect them.
Here is a case that has grown out
of condition which we of western
Kansas are all familiar with, and it
should be a warning to the big ranch
men and the little ranch men alike
This man Dewey has been up there
many years. He has owned a large
ranch comprising 40, acres, but
this did not satisfy him. He had
money and he kept adding to his
dominions by buying the compro
missed tax sale certificates on more
and more land, and extending his
fences in all directions. Naturally,
he encroached on the range occupied
by the Berrys and other small stock
men. The big mems cattle ate up
the little mems crops which were in
closed in the big ranch pastures.
Probably the big ranch cattle were
shot while engaged in that kind OF
Pastime and things were a popping
generally. Law suits followed, and
as this Dewey ranch lay in -four
counties the entire judicial district
got more or less mixed up In the
trouble. Finally, from shooting at
and killing one another's cattle, cut
ting fences and threatening lives
they went to numbering Young
Dewey, who had charge of the big
ranch during his fathers absence,
surrounded himself with bunch O:
reckless devils and just how they
got the drop on the Berry family is
not stated, but that they caught
them unprepared is evident from
the fact that the Berrys were all left
for dead and not one of the Deweys
was reported scratched. Of course
the killers assert that the Berrys
commenced shooting first and that
the killing was done in self defense
but it does not look that way from
this distance.
These large ranches may be profit
able and a good thing for the
