Schlierholz Dismissed.

The secretary of the interior has suspended from office Charles A. NJ. Schlierholz, special agent of the general land office, on charges in- volying the integrity of his inyesti- gation of depredations on govern ment lands in Louisiana. It will be remembered that several years ago SchllerholZ was active in this state In cases in which allegations of tim- Der cutting were made. He was also asSlduous in eases of alleged fraud Tn soldiers additional hopestead en- tries. It was stated several weeks ago in an Associated Press telegram from Washington that charges of bribery in connection with his duties in Arkansas and elsewhere had been preferred against Schlierholz. It was added that the charges had been investigated by the interior depart ment and that the report was ad- verse to Schlierholz. Later the re- port was circulated that friends of the accused had received adyices of his exoneration and of his assign ment to an important mission in the West. United States officials who were associated with Schlierholz in this state, who were asked their opinion, praised him as an efficient and honest official.

 The Pulaski county grand jury, in its final report after session of forty-seven days, referred to the ef- fort of the officers to suppress gam- bling as follows:
 We commend with pleasure, and in the highest terms, the vigorous action of this honorable court in causing the sheriff of Pulaski county to seize the gambling devices of cer- tam gambling houses in this city in June, and again in October, 1903. These seizures and subsequent burn lngS by the sheriff, we believe, have resulted temporarily, and we hope permanently, in breaking up public gambling in Little Rock. We made examination of the gambling cases called to our attention, but got little Information on the subject of actual participation in gambling. We had before Us the city and county of tieers, whose duty it is to ferret out and suppress crimes of this sort, but discovered that they were the same Innocent and artless witnesses which other grand juries have found them. In a general way, they had vague impression that public gambling was going on, but had never been able to secure any definite informa- ton on the subject. We have re- turned five indictments against as many different parties, believed to be guilty of conducting public gam bling houses, as evidenced by the seizures of the sheriff, heretofore re- ferred to. We call the attention of the court to the fact that in all these cases, the gambling houses were run Tn the same building and in connec- tlon with a saloon, thus constituting a double offense. There does not seem to be any necessary connection between the saloon business and crime, and if saloon is run in vio- lation of law, 1t must be for the rca- son that the proprietor wishes to have it so. The privilege of run ming a saloon must be obtained by public consent, and the saloonkeep- CT Is required to pay a special tax therefor. This being true, does not the granting of a saloon license car " with 1t an implied mutual agree ment that such saloon shall be con- dncted in harmony with the laws governing such matters? These laws prohibit gambling in same buildings with saloons, the sale of liquor on Sunday, and to minors at all times. If an investigation dis closes the fact, as we arc sure it will, that any of the parties indicted have been running their saloons in yiola- ton of these laws constantly for several years, will not this court be warranted in canceling the licenses of such inyeterate and chronic of- lenders against law and good morals?

 Gen. Joe Wheeler declares his be- lief that Russia, in expressing great desire for peaceable settle ment of the Far Eastern troubles, is merely playing for time in which 10 rush troops into Manchuria and l prepare for the fray. Just how many are in that province now mo- body except the Russian officials 1 know, and they will take particular pains not to tell. The number of | arrivals in the past three months, or since the war tension began, Is likewise beyond the worlds knowl- edge. In regard to all of Rusia's methods and designs in Manchuria the world is in the most profound | darkness. But 1t Is safe to say that the work of preparation for the ir- repressible conflict is not being in- tcrrupted in Japan.

count of the great amount Of rough feed
