"There they sat, Roosevelt and
Booker and It same Czolgosz or

harm would have been done the

''This rufian not only gave out
such a remark as is quoted above

which brand him as one whose

doctrine. Such a low down brute

Little Chapters From Life
A Matter of Life and Death.

1t is no fun to be the coroner
of Beltrami county.
Of course the business of the
coroner is with death and he is
not supposed to have fun but it
is rather more serious business
in Beltrami county than in most
other places.
Some months ago the coroner
of Beltrami county was sum-
moned to the north end of the
county because of a suspicion in
one mans mind that another
mans death had somewhat anti,
cipated the natural course of
events. A telegram got the cor
oner out at three O'Clock in the
morning and started him on
journey that numbered 700 miles
before he sat again at his own
hearthstone. When in the course
of time the county cashes the
coroner's expense warrant the
taxpayer will have been parted
from something like one hundred
dollars which is about as serious
a business for the taxpayer as
the rest of the trip was for the
coroner.
Recently the coroner of Bel
trami county was summoned to
Shotley. Owing to the compul-
sion of an arbitrary train service
and of the law which brooks of
no delay, the coroner left be-
tween two days. But the train
service stops short of Shotley
seventeen miles. Not so the
tamarack swamp, however,
which pushes it's wealth of mus.
key right up to the gates of the
city which is not yet a city de
iure for the reason that every
man but one in the whole Shotley
Brook country is a homesteader
and there is but one legal resi-
dent within the profound corpor.
ate limits of ShotleY. How to
vest the complex organization of
modern municipal life in this one
man is the problem in constitu-
tional government with which
the good people of Shotley are
graphing. Shotley is the one
spot in America where the office
seeks the man.
One might talk of many more
irrelevant things in heaven and
earth only to come back and find
the coroner still footing it YEARLY
from hummock to hummock
across that seventeen miles and
back Of shaking swamp.
Through such perils and worse
is the coroner of Beltraml county
compelled to win his pitiful wage,
but he is accustomed to look
deathin the face and perhaps it
does not seem so serious to the
coroner as it does to the editor
sitting in his luxuriously APP
pointed sanctum languidly die
tating editorial gems for the
next days paper to his chief
stenographer.

SUE FOR. DISSOLUTION OF
STANDARD OIL COMPANY.
Petition in Chancery Court of New
Jersey Declares ROckefeller's
Operations Are Illegal.

Trenton, n. J.. June 27.-Charles D.
Henderson, Jr., of Jersey City and Joseph
NJ. w. NewIin of Philadelphia, counsel for
George Rice of Marietta, o.. to-day filed
in the Court of Chancery a bill for the
dissolution of the Standard OIL Company,
charging that the company is Illegal and
that it exists in violation of the antitrust
laws of the United States and of the de-
cision in this State relating to monopolies.
The bill charges that the Standard Oil
Company in Ohio was declared illegal by
the courts of that State. but in obe-
ence to that decision, has. by subterfuge,
cofpany, instead of dissolving, in obedi-
ience to that decision, has, by subterfuge,
evaded the Ohio decision and that the
New Jersey corporation is merely hold
ing company for the Ohio concern. The
bill asks that not only the company be
dissolved, but that its assets be dis
tributed among its stockholders after pay
ing off its outstanding securities.
For the accomplishment of this purpose
it is asked that a receiver be appointed.
