Clay County Attorney Faces Joint
lists Charges.

Clay county is torn up over charges
which have been made against K e.
Miller, the county attorney, by joint
ist at Morganville, in that county Inc
iointist alleges that he paid the county
attorney for immunity from prosecu-
ton, ana the matter has been checked
up to Attorney General Coleman, whose
home is in Clay county, to begin GUS
ter proceedings against Miller.
Miller is a Populist. Some time ago
he had Mr.. Coleman and his law part
ner F. L. Williams, arrested on the
charge of kidnapping the little child OF
Rev John Jackson. Mr.. Coleman and
Mr. williams were attorneys for Mrs:
Jackson in the Jackson family row, and
as Jackson had just taken the child
from its mother, her attorneys took 1t
back again. Judge Kimble, of the dis
trict court, released Coleman and Will
Jams on a writ of habeas corpus as
soon as the matter got before him.
Now Mr.. Coleman may play even
with Miller. Miller has also had a
county commissioner and the county
clerk arrested at different times for
minor offenses, so it is oGthing new in
Clay county for a criminal action to be
brought against a county officer.

suspicion of being the lone" burglar
who has been operating during the last
three weeks
Brown denies that he is the man
wanted for the numerous robberfes re-
ported to the police since September

three years before coming here. He
has a gunshot wound In his le1t leg

Browns arrest was brought about
by Elias Zaroor, an Assyrian who runs
a fruit stand at 324 South Sixth street
Brown went to ZarOor yesterday AFTER

appearance with the tobacco.
Brown was in the "sweat-box" at

forenoon, but he refused to say any
thing concerning his movements since

ed at Topeka for stealing a bicycle
and that he would return there with

NOT GOOD BooKKEEPERs.
That Appears to Be Trouble With
BARRIERS board.

The State BARRIERS board has got
it's accounts in a tangle and Cover
nor Bailey will have State Accountant
Rowett make an examination of the
affairs of the board in order to
straighten things out. 1t seems that
the members of the board divided up
the state and each took a portion to
look after in enforcing the new bar
Der law which was passed by the last
legislature. The members of the board
are supposed to get their pay from
the fees they collect, but the accounts
of the board are SO mixed UP that they
cannot tell how much each has col
lected and received. The trouble
seems to have been that the board did
not know how to keep books. The
members appealed to Governor Bailey
to straighten them out, and he will
have the state accountant do it. There
may be some fees coming to the state.
The members of the board are J. D.
Stevens of Leavenworth, w. L. Akers
of Wichita, and D. M. Mitchell of
Argentine.

LOST OVER A MILLION.
Old Currency System of Philippines
Was Expensive.

Washington, Sept 22.-The bureau OF
insular affairs of the war department
in its review and final audit of the
Philippines government, has definitely
nxed the loss sustained by the insular
treasury up TO June 80. 1908, due TO the
nuctuating value of the silver currency
in general circulation in the islands I'M
ill a recent date, at 81, 294 OSS.
This loss TO the insular government
was brought about largely by the fact
thai when silver was dear, MeXicanS
were almost exclusively offered for
pavment of government dues but when
silver was cheap and the Mexicans
overvalued. comparatively little was Of
fered in payment of dues. and creditors
of the government sought by every
means possible to obtain settlement by
the government in Mexican money. In
q this way silver money would be taken
at a high rate of exchange to gold and
paid out at much lower rate than re-
CeiVed.
Under the new coinage act, which is
now in successful operation, Mexican
money is no longer receivable for pub
lie dues. and such loss viii be impossi-
BILE in the future.

DRUGGISTS ON TRIAL.
Charged With Selling Liquor When
Permit Was Not in Force.

Frank Keith, Z. c. Russum and A.
G. Moss were on trial in police court
Wednesday afternoon for selling liquor
Illegally at the old Gish drug store. 300
heard. and the case taken under ad-
visement until this evenings session of
court.
The defendants ran the drug store
from July to August 10 without reg
ular liquor permit, but it is shown by
the receipt books turned in to the pro-
bate court, that they sold liquor under
a permit held by Gish during his life
time. 1t is the contention of the city
attorney that the Gkh permit expired
when the holder died during the month
of June. and that the defendants were
as guilty as though they had not re-
quired the liquor customers to sign
up"
The prosecution asked for convictions
on the evidence of three witnesses
Lew Frost. a "spotter'' employed by
Chief Stahl, ]. w. Mildfelt, police
man, and A. B. Lawless, who test1ned
that he had bought liquor and signed
for it during the time when Gish's per
NIT was being used,-July and August.
The spotter, Frost, testified that he
had bought whisky of E. c. Russum
without being required TO sign up,
and the whisky was introduced as evil
dence. He admitted that Chlef Stani
gave him money to buy the liquor
When cross-examined Frost admitted
that he had served a term in the penl-
Tertiary for horse stealing, and hau
been frequently arrested for minor OIL
lenses.
The city wants convictions on six
counts two sales to e'rost, by T. q.

PENDANTS. ]. K. Codding, attorney for

Wheat Crop May be Short.

No extraordinary wheat crop is
expected this year. According to j.
@. Brown, statistician of the Produce
Exchange, the total wheat harvest
this year should 657, O21 900 bushels.
The governments report was based
upon the condition of the grain and
the acreage in June. In 1903 on the
similar date the forecast indicated
a yield of 7S2, 100000 bushels, but
the final harvest was only 637,821,S35
bushels.
The comparatively poor showing
that is made by the wheat crop at
present is due to the handicap which
winter wheat received on account of
the intense cold last winter. This
loss cannot be made. up to any ex-
tent, as harvesting of winter wheat
has already begun.
Benefit to the crop must come
from improvement in spring wheat,
which is now doing well.-New York
Dispatch, 10th.
