when the war department has an
abandoned because of its inland posi-
tion. il being the policy of the depart

no longer any hostile Indians near
Boise and il is not easy TO see why
troops are needed there. A reader of

why troops are wanted in Boise is be-
cause John D. Rockefeller of the
Standard Oil Company has acquired
many valuable mines in the vicinity OF
Roise and he wants government troops
easily available to suppress any labor
disturbances that may arise among his
employees When the labor troubles in
the Occur d'Alenes are recalled, this
explanation does not seem unreason-
able.

ARE CITED TO
SHOW CAUSE

The Ames Mercantile Co. have asked
for an Injunction to restrain ThOs. Lee,
James Naugn, Chas. Ehrenfels, John
Caulan and others from mining on the
beach abutting the Ames Company's
property. The plaintiff alleges that
the land being mined is used for land
ing goods from lighters and barges:
that sluice boxes and mining machinery
have been erected thereon, and that
dirt is being dumped into the sea, thus
filing it and making the landing of
goods impossible. The defendants claim
that they are working under lease
from the Nome-SinOok Mining Co,
which company, long time ago. began
suit of ejectment against the Ames
Company, but the suit is still at issue.
1t is also alleged that thes Nome-Sinook
Co. is not ROW, and has not been, in
possession of the premises since April
"a, 1901 and a long time prior thereto.
An order was issued citing the de-
PENDANTS to show cause on June why
they should not be enioined. Ira ID.

WILL Be SENTENCED
Tomorrow Afternoon at O'clock
synopsis of Evidence
AdduCed at Trial.

The trial of S. H. Stevens, of the
Gold Digger, on a charge OF criminal
libel, preferred by Maurice Pelz, began
in Judge Reeds court yesterday morn
ing, and was concluded at 5 p. m,
when he was adjudeed guilty, the court
reserving sentence until today. This
morning the court stated that sentence
would be deferred until p. IN. tomor-
row.
Attorney o. d. Cochran, for Stevens,
would make motion for continuance
until documentary testimony could be
produced from the outside. At lC
o'clock Monday morning, however, he
stated that he would not make the mo-
tiOn, and the case was set for trial yes
terday. Acting District Attorney
Grigsby and Attorney James w. Bell
appeared for the United States.
The First Witness.
The first witness was F. l.. Henshaw,
q printer employed in the Gold Digger
office. He told of the publication OF
the libelous article, and said that the
''proof" had been seen by Stevens and
D'Hierry, reporter on the same paper.
Henshaw also stated that Stevens had
commented upon the article. Stevens,
he said, asked D'Hierry what authority
he had for it's publication, but the wit
ness said he did not remember all of
the conversation. Stevens asked wit
ness what he thought of the article,
but the witness did not give an opinion.
rAohno chad tho tpitn0cc il
he did not hear Stevens protest against
objection by Attorney Bell was sus-
tanned, the court stating that it was
not disputed that Stevens was one OF
the prOprietors of the paper, and he
did not have to make protest, and
mitigation could not be shown in that
way.
A. L. Smith, who was reporter on the
Gold Digger from last October to May
], was next called. Stevens and War
rem were proprietors OF the paper, he
said, but he only knew who was the
editor by the name at the head OF the
editor ial columns.
The Complaining Witness.
Maurice Pelz, the complaining wit
ness, was called next. He said he was
a cigar dealer, and told of his residence
in Nome since 1900, but not continu-
Ously. Last summer and fall he con-
Quoted the Monte Carlo saloon and the
atre, and he intended to apply for a
license to again engage in the same
business. Asked if the statements con.
tanned in the published article to the
effect that he had been run out of sew
eral towns were true, he replied, cit is
false" as were the other statements
contained in the article.
Attorney Cochran cross-examined the
witness closely, seeking to maize it ap-
pear that the Monte Carlo was a place

PROVISIONS
At FAIRBANKS

Rampant, April 16.-The reports from
the Fairbanks district the past week
throw much light on the situation
there. The statement of Frank Hiatt
that there is, and always has betn,
plenty of provisions Of all kinds-if the
money was available to pay for them
is fully corroborated. The estimated
cleanups next spring are lowered, as it
is admitted that all the best dirt mined
this winter has been PANIED and rocked
and the money long since in the COM
panies' safes in the new district, to
whom it has been paid, in order to OBJ

BUSY At YORK

Quite Il number of tin prospectors are
at work ON Potato mountain and vicin-
lty, according to statement made yes
terday by d. w. Walker, who reached
town from that section. Fifteen men
are at the head of Buck creek, looking
for tin quartz: and they are being re
warded. Mr.. Walkers party found Il
big quartz outcrop the other day, which
is most promising. 1t contains abund-
ance of tin, so plain, in fact, that it
does not need an assay to determine
the presence of the metal. However,
Mr.. Walker brought down 30 pounds
of the ore for assaying purposes.

was better. although the shore ice is
severe on dogs feet. The ice is out at

along the coast it is apparently As solid

SIMPLY THROWN OUT.

- HARTMAN EwART Of the Union
~ Republican county committee.
has not resigned. as reported he was
removed because his course as chair
man was not acceptable to one John r..
Addcks. In an interview which ap-
pears in another column, Mr.. Ewart
tells why he was deposed. Addicks
wanted a mere tool. and Mr.. Ewart, be
1t said to his credit. is not that sort Of
man.
More honor has come to him by his
removal than he has won In all his
years as the chairman Of the Addicks
committee. We regret that he ever be-
came a Union Republican; that he con-
sented to serve as chairman OF that
committee, and that he didn't resign
long ago. But 1t Is an honor for him to
make his exit as he has. being thrown
out because he had somo independence.
We have always wondered how eer-
tain men Of the standing in the COM
munity Of Mr.. Ewart could go to the
support OF the unspeakable leader Of
the Union party. There are few such
men who by a mysterious process OF
reasoning have gotten out OF their nat
ural environment. And they have beer
welcomed with outstretched hands, be.
cause such men give the Union party
all the character IL possesses.
But their opinions are not required
for the Union party doesn't want opin-
ions. II wants subserviency, and that
It viii have on pain Of expulsion. Mr..
Ewart is really open to congratula-
tons; he is out OF position that added
nothing to his standing in the commu-
nifty.
And Addicks succeeds him. He will
steer his own craft which is now almost
on the rocks. He win control his COM
mlttee like a Snowman controls his per-
forming dogs. And that should cause
rejoicing IN the hearts OF an Republi-
cans.
