ENDORSEMENT
FOR CARTER
PLATFORM ADOPTED RY rHE iE
PUBLICAN CONVENTION uN THE
GARDEN ISLAND.

The Kauai Republican platform. as
adopted in the convention last week. is
as follows;
THE Republican party Of Kauai in
convention assembled this FIRST day Of
october 1904 renews its allegiance to the
principles and traditions Of the Repub-
lican party of the nation and endorses
the sentiments expressed 10 the Repub-
lican territorial platform adopted by
the Territorial Convention at Hilo Ha-
vail on the first Of September 1904.
we particularly endorse the con-
sentative and economic policy OF our
governor George r. Carter at time
when the financial condition of the Ter
ritory was seriously crippled. and we
consider the territory and the Repub-
lican party should congratulate Itself
that II has at this time a Republican
Governor Of wisdom and executive
ability.
I'VE also endorse thp Territorial
Platform wherein the support Of the
party Is pledged to the reelection of
Delegate Kalanianaole, and we hereby
express our appreciation to our Dele
gate for the benefits we have received
in the way of federal favor through his
efforts.
Kauai being solely "a farming com
munity. we believe in the disposal Of
unoccupied public lands to bona fide
settlers upon most favorable terms, but
/ we do not endorse any policy that
/ would in amy manner jeopardize the
| chief industry of this island from which
! al citizens of Kauai either directly OF
| indirectly derive their living and the

farmer at home, who has made TIE

! fully as much consideration as the un.

We pa. t.cul rly cha ge our nat 8 al

We believe in the establishment o.

be the most economical policy in theory
for the Territory, but because we be
lieve that County Government alon,
will free Kauai from taxation withou
proper compensation, and assure it,

Inside Nervesl

Sickness looses half its terrors when we
strip medicine of its MYSTERY For most
all forms Of sickness start in the same
way. The nerves are weak. Not the
nerves that govern your movements and
your thoughts.
But the nerves that, unguided and IN
known, night and day. keep your heart in
motion-control your digestive apparatus
regulate your lver-operate your kidneys.
These are the nerves that wear out and
break down.
1t does no good to treat the ailing organ
the irregular heart-the disordered liver
the rebellious stomach-the deranged
kidneys. They are not to blame. But go
back to the nerves that control them.
There you will find the seat of the trou-

Tommy Ryan Has an Idea That
He Can Whip JEFF.
The Mfddleweight Champions
Confidence Pipe Dream.
JAMES NOT A BUTCHER
The Californian Wouldn't Get
I'm the Ring With Tommy.
Ryan In a Great Fighter but
Not in That Class.

New. York, Nov 26.-Tommy Ryan,
middleweight champion, has made a
public statement that he intends to
whip Jeffries and take away his title.
The announcement was made while
Ryan was still excited over the beating
he gave Jack Graham, local fighter
of Kansas City. Probably by this time
Tommy has cooled, down and has start
ed back to the farm
Tommy Ryan weighs 152 pounds In
the best of fighting condition, and fire.
quently goes several pounds below that
figure. Jeffries touches the beam now
at $50 pounds or more. A mere hundred
pounds over the weight Of Tommy
Ryan.
Tommy taught Jeffries some of the
rudiments of the boxing game. That
from the Pacific slope was good
fighter, in a ponderous sort of way,
but he needed a little coaching for the
fight with F'itzSimmons, in which he
won the championship. Foxy Tommy
was picked to put the final polish on
Jeffries style. He invented the famous
Jeffries crouch,sswhich for two years
made it impossible for any heavy
weight to do damage worth mention
ing to the big boiler1naker.
AT that time Jeffries was there to
learn, and he didn't make any attempt
to thrash the school teacher. Tommy,
to Jeffries, danced in and out smashing
away for all he was worth, while JEFF
patiently took whatever came and
learned all he could of Ryaifss tricki-
ness. AS a nfatters5of course Tommy
landed many a.. hard smash on Jeff's
nose and since that time he has carried
around the idea that he could give JEFF
fries a fight.
Tommy ought to know better. He
went out to California last year and
helped Jim Corbett to get into condi
ton for his unsuccessful attempt on
Jeff's title. He ssatsat the ringside and
saw what JeffFfes did to Cerbett. He
saw that the clumsy giant had become
almost as greati9a boxer as himself.
Tommy Ryan6is a great fighter, but
l don't befeVe mat ne could whip Jim
Corbett, and jim. himself acknowledges
that he can't come within a thousand
miles Of whippIhg the California griz-
ly.
OF course Jeffries never would get
into the ring with q little fellow like
And for that matter there is only one
thing that would 9seonvince me that
Tommy would So5far depart from the
path of sanity las9to fight Jeffries. I
would believe tiff 1 saw the fight
start.
Ryan would have as much of a
chance with the big fellow as a snow
ball would have in Flagstaff, Ariz. He
knows it. When Terry McGovern ser
iously challenges Bob Fitzsimmons,
Tommy Ryan will challenge Jeffries.
Tommy is his own press agent and he.
is a good one We have to. forgive these
little attempts on the limehght, because
he. really is suctf a great fghter-in his
own class.
Jim Jeffries was 1000 miles away
when Ryan made his bluff. Lucky! It
would be awfully humiliating to the
middleW champion to be spanked.

WAS DE BoIssIERE's soN.fs
Charles Silly, Frenchman, Kills
Himself Near Ottawa.


Ottawa, Kan, Nov. 26.--The funeral
of Charles Silly, who was found dead
near here, was held Friday. Silly was
a Frenchman, a follower of De Bois-
siere, and there is a belief among
many that he was a son of De Bois-
siere. He was found in field with
bullet through his brain. 1t was a
case of suicide. In his pocket was
found his will in his own handwriting
1t read:

and no friends among the people of
my nationality, I give willing to

The dog was found by the dead body
of his master and the officers were
compelled to 1asso it before being able
to approach the body. Among other
papers in Silly's pocket was found an
inventory of property in France and
several French legal documents.

THE MAJESTY OF THE LAW.
A Case in Point in the Early Days at
Cottonwood Falls.

There are time when the majesty of
the law acts as a powerful safeguard
to the man who is its representative.
A number of years ago, ]. w. McWil-
liams was justice of the peace in Cot
tonwood Falls. a position he holds at
present.
AL Brandley, who was well known
in the county at that time, was sued
in his court. and when the case came
to trial, asked for a jury. The case
went to the jury late in the afternoon,
and there seemed little prospect of
their bringing in verdict before
night McWilliams. at that time, was
unmarried and was attentive to a
young woman who was teaching
school several miles south of town,
and was anxious to have the case end
ed so he could go out and bring her
home to Cottonwood Falls. He
fdgeted and squirmed in his chair and
finally remarked:
81 wish that I had the settling of
this case. I'll bet I wouldn't fool
around that way
Brandley heard him and immediate
~ inquired how he would decide it,
and the. Justice answered, In your
favor, of course"
That settled matters. Brandley
called his lawyer to one side and sug-
gested that they ask the lawyer on
the other side to leave it to McWil-
liams, and as this lawyer had heard
nothing of the conversation between
ately agreed.
The jury was recalled and the jus
tice decided the case for the plaintiff.
BrandIey slowly got to his feet,
stretched to his full height, spit on
his hands a couple of times and in
CURED:
''Is this court adjourned?''
The court looked at him and seeing
that he meant business, replied:
mo, this court is not adjourned,
and what's more, it's going to stay in
session all night"
Brandley walked outside the court
room, and paced the sidewalk in front
of the building, III the meantime re-
calling the spectators with an account
of what he would do to the justice
when he left the court room. McWil-
liams watched him from the window
with a heavy heart, but finally thought
of a convenient window in the rear.
Through this he made his escape and
leaving his enemy to pace the street,
went after the school ma'am.-Em-

LONG WILL PLAY AGAIN.
Rheumatism Has Left the Great Ball
Players Arm.

Des Moines, Nov. ga bit of sport
ing news that will be interesting to
baseball fans is contained in the an
nouncement that Herman Long, the
once brilliant shortstop, has been
signed by the Cantillons to manage
their Des Moines team in the Western
league. He will play second base and
will have entire charge of the players
on the field, while Mike Cantillon will
look after the business affairs of the
club.
1t was feared that Longs playing
days were over when he asked for his
release from the Toledo team last year
because of rheumatism in his right
arm, which made it impossible for him
to throw accurately, but the lameness
has left his arm.
This fall he played Independent ball
around Chicago and found no difficulty
in throwing and he expects that he
will have no trouble whatever at sec
ond base as the throw is much shorter
than from shortstop.
The Cantillons have also signed Will
Kelley, a brother of Mike Kelley, man
ager of the champion st. Louis team
for Des Moines. Young Kelley played
an infield position on the Winnipeg
team last year and is looked upon as
most promising youngster- Mike Can
tillon says that they now have 20 per
cent of the stock of the Des Moines
club and would likely purchase more
before the season begins.

1t Threatened Once or Twice ia
End in a Big Row.
NOT TO PIPE AWAY GAS.
Montgomery County Was Most
Bitter In the Fight.
Insisted on Combining Gas to the
Producing Counties.
VIII Carry the Matter to the
Legislature This Winter.

Independence, Nov. 26.-The delegates
from the counties of Montgomery, Neo-
sho, Wilson, Labette and Cherokee to
the gas mass meeting here developed
much oratory and considerable friction.
The largest attendance was from Mont
gomery county and this delegation led
a strong movement to commit the as
ISOLATION to the policy of demanding
legislation which would keep the gas in
the county in which it is produced. This
effort threatened at one time to break
up the meeting.
The representatives from Labette and
Cherokee counties, which lie on the
edge of the gas belt, threatened TO
withdraw if the issue was not made on
piping the gas out of the state. They
asserted that the gas belt was not
strong enough to carry its demands
through the legislature without help
and if the gas, was to be kept in the
counties in which it Is produced the
outlying counties would let them hoe
their own row at Topeka The Mont
gomery delegates then sai& they were
merely interested in keeping the gas
away from Kansas City and Joplin, Mo.
Charges were made that the meeting
had been packed in the interest OF
Montgomery county, but after explana-
lions had been made Judge Skidmore
of Cherokee county and Mr.. Perkins or
Labette county and their a0nerentS
said they were satisfied
D. NJ. Kennedy of Chanute, president
of the Kansas Gas Protective associa-
ton, called the meeting to order He
said this was the greatest issue which
had ever confronted the people of Kan
Sas; that the homes of the residents of
the gas belts were threatened with de-
struction by aliens and the time had
come to do something for their protec-
ton. Mayo Thomas, county attorney of
Montgomery county, said the gas in
dustry meant millions of dollars to all
of the gas would mean the loss of
factories and the cutting in half of the
value Of the homes. He produced a
prospectus of the Kansas National Gas
company showing, as he alleged, that
the estimated profits on the line to
Joplin would be more than a million
dollars year and the combined profits
of the Kansas City and Joplin lines
would amount to s., 100000 a year. He
asserted that the amount of royalties
paid to the farmers by this company,
according to its own statement, was
less than $1,000.
A. d. Clark. assistant county attor-
ney of Montgomery county, also assert
ed that the farmers were being misled
by the tales of wealth they were losing
by the stoppage of the gas pipe lines.

One of the Oldest Kansas Landmarks
Torn Down.
The Kansan's Kickapoo correspond
emit. recently mentioned the fact that
the old Kickapoo Indian mission house
on the farm of Mrs. Lou Atkinson, at
that place, had been torn down on ac-
count of it's dilapidated condition.
This building was one of the old land
marks of Kansas, having been erected
during the very early fiftfes as a mis-
sion house where the pioneer Baptist
missionaries labored to Christianize
and civi1ize the Kickapoo Indians who
| lived at that place.
Mrs. r. NJ. King, of Oak Mills, who
was an early settler of that locality,
recalls that the first time she ever at
tended church was in this same old
mission house, it having been used as
a meeting house by the early white
settlers after the Kickapoo Indians
were transferred to their diminished
reservation in Brown county. Mrs.
King says that although the buildin e
was log structure, it was neatly and
substantially built, was two stories
