CREDIT AND SETTLEMENT.

The most important points
i'll Judging a mans credit;
are first, his good name;
second, his ability to pay;
and third. the manner III
which he does pay.
You may ask how these
relate to you? In this way;
III order FIR &c to buy as
low as any yard: get CIR
stock shipped as quick, and
receive the best OF its kind;
our credit has to be good.
So is it with you. If you
are not getting the service,
stock that your good credit
demand; wouldn't it be a
good idea to try us. We
are bound to keep our credit
good. First, on account of
giving our trade better ser
vice; and second, resulting
partly from the first; more
business and consequently
more profits.

NELSON WINS FIGHT

San Francisco, Sept. 12.-In a fight
that will long stand In class Of its
own in the history of ring contests,
Battling Nelson, the sturdy little
Dane from Illinois, knocked out James
Edward Britt of San Francisco at
Colma. The end came in. the
eighteenth round and was a clean cut,
fairly won victory. This is simple
statement Of the result. The story Of
the battle itself furnishes a thrilling
story. No element that goes to give
the fight the superlatiye title of
greatest" was missing. The sur
roundings, the crowd, the known bit
terness Of the men toward each 9TH
err, the uncertainty as to whether there
would be fight at all up to within a
quarter Of an hour before the fight
actually began; the cleverness, game
ness and endurance displayed by the
two boxers-these are what made the
fight great one.

New York, Sept. 10. - The Russian
peace commissioners have been in
close touch with J. Pierpont Morgan
In their business and social affairs
since reaching this country. AS fis-
cal agent for Russia for some years,
Mr.. Morgan was never able to be of
more service than Of late.
M. White has Travelled In Mr.. Nor
gan's private car since leaving Ports
mouth, returning from trip to Wash
ington this morning. Mr. Morgan's
car has been at his service whenever
wanted. M. Witte appears to appre-
ciate the value Of services rendered
him by Mr.. Morgan in peace negotia-
tions. AS sole representative Of all
credi brs Of both nations, empowered
to deny a loan to Russia to be paid,
Japan as an indemnity and empower
ed to inform both that no money
would be advanced to continue war
or to buy peace, there was little left
to do but make peace. 1t turned out
good, for Russia did not desire to in
crease Indebtedness merely to pay In
demnity.
Mr.. Morgan is now raising 100000
600 for Russia. to be used In restor-
ing quiet at home and in paying small
bills incurred

a concession for feeding and housing
the greater part OF the canal en-
ployes to j. F. Markell, of Omaha,

hotels along the canal and railroad,
each Of them to accommodate from
$50 to $50 dodgers, and twice as many
diners. These hotels, 1t Is declared,
will compare favorably with the bet
ter class of commercial hotels in this
country and will be used chiefly by
the higher salaried employees.
For the laborers employed in the
canal or in any way identified with
that project the concessionaire will
at first establish twenty commissary
camps and later 100 additional ones,
each with kitchen and dining rooms.
Laborers will have the privilege Of

PUBLIC PRINTER BUSTED.
President Demands Resignation to take
Effect September IS.

Washington, Sept. Public Print
er F. w. Palmer, practically has been
ousted from Office. 1t was learned au.
thoritatively that President Roosevelt
had demanded Palmer's resignation,
to take effect on the 18th inst. The
demand of the president for Palmer's
resignation was due primarily to the
latter's action in trying to force Oscar
J. Ricketts,, foreman Of printing and
L. C. Hay, a foreman Of division, out
Of the government printing office.
Palmer asked for the resignation OF
Ricketts, and Hay on the ground that
they had been insubordinate.
AS soon as President Roosevelt
learned of the situation that had de-
veloped he directed Public Printer
Palmer to forward his resignation to
take effect in two weeks.
1t has been known for some time
that Palmer would not stay. For sew.
eral months before Roosevelt left
Washington for oyster Bay he was
casting about for suitable man for
the position of public printer. He Of
fered it to John A. Sleicher of New
York, but he declined it, having some
thing better in view. Until this time
there has been no change in the situa-
tion.

WHIPPING is LEGAL.
Corporal Punishment Is Not Barred
In Kansas Schools.

Topeka, Kan, Sept. Estate Su-
perintendent of Schools Dayhoff has
defined what sort of corporal punish
ment can be legally administered to
a pupil of the public schools by a
teacher.
"Any corporal punishment" says he
in an opinion handed down, "such as
the use Of rubber hose, paddle or
a switch is legal; also the slapping
with the open hand on the cheek or
any fleshy part of the body not over
any vital organ. No teacher has the
right to use any punishment that will
leave marks on the pupils for days.
Boxing the ears, pulling the ears,
twisting the nose, pulling the hair or
the use Of ruler on the palm Of the
hand is prohibited
The state superintendent deemed a
decision on this question necessary.
Some of the teachers of the state have
been extremely brutal in the past!
They would resort to almost any kind
of punishment to conquer a pupil.
While no permanent injury has ever
been reported, frequently teachers
have been arrested for assault and
battery.
1.-THE forms of punishment that are
legal will do just as much to bring a
pupil to time as the severer punish
ments," said the superintendent.
Then why go beyond the limit? l
believe school board is justified In
discharging teacher who admins
tiers brutal punishment to child. A
provision covering that point should
be covered in the teachers contract"

ate hearings will be granted by the
federal courts under the one indict.
ment charging conspiracy.
"All these defendants are included
In the one Indictment charging con
spiracy In restraint Of trade" said

course will be the essence Of the case
