ruEY WILL TRY TO GUST DUDLEY
Quo Warranto Proceedings Brought
Against the Sheriff That Didn't
Defeat n Mob.

Sullivan, Ind, Jan. 23.-Attorneys
John T. and VIII H. Hays have brought
quo warranto proceedings for Coroner
w. p. Maxwell in the circuit court to
GUST John s. Dudley from the Office
of sheriff. The complaint says Dudley
was elected in November, 1900, and
reelected in 1902. The proceedings are
complicated by an act Of the legisla-
ture, which extended the first term Of
the sheriff until Feb. 1, 1903, and by
the fact that the lynching of James
billiard, which led to the proceedings
against Dudley, occurred after his cleo
ton the second time and before the
first term expired.
The complaint says that Dudley be-
came ineligible after the date Of the
lynching. The governor issued a COM
mission to Dudley for his second term
and on Jan. : Dudley filed his bond.
The complaint sets out the law which
removes a sheriff when he fails to
protect a prisoner in his care; that the
governor refused an application to re-
instate Dudley and SO notified the
county commissioners, who refused to
appoint a successor.

10 Allowing Men TO Bald
. House.

Philadelphia, Jan. 22.-The feature
Of the strike commission session yes
terday was a few remarks passed by
Judge Gray at one point in the testi-
mony. One of the witnesses, a mine
manager named Mercur, said hat due
ing the strike he wanted to build q
boiler house for a colliery. The strik>
ers refused to permit the work to be
done. Finally the contractor wrote to
District President Fahey and asked
permission" to erect the boiler house.
Fahey replied: ION account of ex-
listing conditions l cannot grant you
the permission which as l understand
from your letter you request"
Chairman Gray and miners counsel
Darrow had an animated colloquy owe
the matter, during which Judge Gray
said he did not like the word permits
sion" as used by Fahey. This was a
free country, and he was not educated
up TO using it in the way Fahey had
employed it. He added that he hated
tyranny, nomatter whether it was prac-
ticed by an operator, miner or any one
else. The chairman delivered his re-
marks with much force and the incl
lent created considerable of a stir in
fha court room.

JOINT SESSION THAT DOES NAUeHT
Only Forty.Ffve Votes Cast, Some
Non-Voters Being Democratic
Legality Question Raised.

Denver. Jan. pa Joint session of
the two branches Of the general as
sembly for the election of United States
senator was held yesterday, but only
Democratic members participated and
there was no election. After concur
ring In adjournment of the house until
2 p. m. tomorrow the Democratic rep
resentatives proceeded to the senate
chamber, where the joint session was
called to order by Senator Adams,
president pro tenn. of the senate. There
were present twenty-six senator's and
twenty-five representatives, a total of
fifty-one, which is the number required
to elect a senator.
Refusing to Vote II Popular.
Three Republican senators were in
the chamber during the session, but
withdrew before a ballot was taken.
Senator Mcclure Dem.) also retired
after the session had refused to excuse
him from voting, leaving only fifty
members present. Several members OBJ
jected to the proceedings on the ground
that the joint session was irregular,
and five Democrats besides Mcclure
refused to vote for senator. On the
joint ballot forty-f'e votes were cast,
all being for Hen1y M. Teller. The
joint session then adjourned until noo
today.
Question of Legality Raised.
The Republican leaders say that any
action Of the joint session is Illegal and
invalid, as the house had adjourned.
They agreed to adjournment Of the
house until Friday in order to give
the two serates a chance TO make
peace, and they did not anticipate the
plan of the Democrats to hold a joint
session. After the house adjourned
without permitting a joint session the
point was raised that no ballots TO be
taken on subsequent days would be
valid because the statutory provision
had not been complied with yesterday.
The legal advisers of the house man.
ayers stated that they were satisfied
after a careful examination Of the
federal and state constitutions and the
statutes of the United States and the
state of Colorado that it was not neces-
sary for the assembly to meet yester-
day for the purpose Of comparing the
journals If it did not see fit.

and nearly all of them were III refer
renee to the wage question. The rec

his annual address that a substantial
increase in wages should be demanded
was borne in mind when the recon-

range from 10 to % per cent. increase

There were also demands made for
a change in the d~ifferentials between
machine and pick mining, and hat the
wages of the common laborers be in

mines. A resolution from an Illinois
local to buy a $4,000 residence In In

o Of political economy at the Uni

ing the benefits of British management
there, and then said:
when Mr.. Rockefeller, for instance,
raises the price Of oil 2 cents he forces
us to contribute money for the collec-
ton Of a great body Of productive cap
ital. 1t is, of course, a system of vol
untary despotism TO which we Ameri-
cans thus submit. Mr.. Rockefeller has
more money than he can use; so 1t Is
no effort for him to save his extra

ital. If the riches were divided equal

COAL SHORTAGE IS QUITE NATURAL
John Mitchell Thinks That Way, Too
Attempt to Gust Sheriff
Dudley-Notes.

Indianapolis. Jan. 23.-The official In
vestigation into the coal shortage and
alleged coal trust in Indiana was con-
cluded yesterday. President Mitchell, Of
the United Mineworkers, met the COM
mission. Mitchell said: There are two
causes for the shortage of coal. The
product was 100000 tons less in
1902 than the product of the Penn
sylvania and the West Virginia mines
was in 1901. The larger part Of the
product of those mines which usually
comes west is going east this year."
Explained by Natural Causes.
He added: 1902 was an extraor-
binary year. More factories were run-
ming then than usual. and this created
an unusual demand for coal. Railways
have not the equipment with which
to haul the coal, and they cannot Sc
cure engines and cars. Inability of
the railroads to move the coal is re-
sponsible for the shortage, and think
that operators as a whole are doing
what they Gan to relieve the situa-
ton. The shortage being experienced
In Indiana now is easily accounted for
by natural reasons and natural
causes. l have not heard of any cases
Of collision between dealers and OPP
orators and l do not believe that there
are any"
Nobody IL To Be Blamed After All.
Governor Durbin said: 1--WE have
heard the railroad men, the operators,
the local coal dealers, editors of Indi-
annapolis newspapers. and Mr.. Mitch
ell. From the information given us it
is evident that there is no collision
on the part Of any enc to put up the
price of coal. The present high price
is evidently the result Of a demand
not fully supplied. Those who get rev.
enue from the coal business naturally
seek the best price for it. The railroads
are doing all they can to get the coal
to the Dealers"

WEEDS

Consumption is a human
weed Aourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes Inn
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear. :
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.
