STILL AFTER MILES.
Congressman Hull Succeeds in Amend
ing Army Bill to Generals
DISADVANTAGE.

Washington, Jan. l3.-'rhc appointments
Of Lieutenant Genera, Nelson A. Mics
inspector general of the state of Massa-
chusetts overshalowed all other questions
in the discussion of the army appropria-
ton bill in the house. The debate had pro-
cecded leisurely until Mr.. Hull. in charge
of the bill. offered an amendment provid
ing that retired officers above the grade of
major should not receive the full pay of
they grade when assigned to duty with
the militia of the several states. Several
members declared that the amendment
was directed especially at General Miles,
but Mr.. Hull insisted that had no such
thought in mind, and argued that the best
results were obtained from officers Of the
lower grades. He asserted that not until
the law was passed allowing increased
pay for officers assigned to the militia did
retired officers of the higher grade apply
for the appointments. He said it was such
increased pay and not patriotism which
prompted them, and he characterized their
conduct unseemly. This statement
reused Mr. Cochran of New York. who
declared that it was simply penalizing SUI
perior officers to the advantage and profit
of inferior officers. After lively debate
the amendment was adopted.

KEY TO BIG ESTATE.
Convict in a Penitentiary Knows of
Valuable Records.

Valuable FNSCoFuS.

Perry of this city it now has been clear
ly established by competent authorities
is one of ttirty-siX heirs to an estate
consisting Of 100 acres of anthracite coal
lands in Pennsylvania which are cstimat-
ed to be worth fully $35, 600.
This valuable estate has been tied ur
during the last nincty-nine years by /,
lease which recently terminated. The or
iginal lease was made out in the name
OF the Dyes, to whom the land then be-
longed. The location of the land and all
papers pertaining thereto have been hand
ed down in the family for generations, OF
until the death OF Mrs. Perry's great
grandmother, who died without making
i will. BY her death all records appar-
emily were lost.
1t is said there is one man living who
knows of the records and the location
of the land, but he is in an eastern peni-
Tertiary for crooked transactions involv
ing the vast estate. and it is supposed he
was endeavoring TO sell the property on
the principle of being the rightful OWL
cr.
Naturally the heirs are leaving no stone
untlirncd to recover possession of the
property, and some of the best legal
talent in the country is engaged on the
case One hundred acres of the tract al
ready have been definitely located. 1t is

a short time until all the land has beer

necessary legal proceedings to secure pos

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
Commissioners Cannot Assess Moneys
and Credits.

Nermillion. S. D., Jan. 1.-THE de-
cision which Judge E. G. Smith of
Yankton handed down Saturday in the
case Of G. T. Salmer VS.. the county
commissioners of Clay county is an i'm
portant one, touching as it does upon
similar cases throughout the entire
state. the county board last year at
tempted TO assess moneys and credits
owned by many capitalists of this city
and Clay county All resisted pay
ment, and as n test case G.. r.. Salmer
took his troubles into court. The case
came up before Judge E. G.. Smith last
Thursday, and afte arguments had
been presented, took the matter under
advisement.
Dean Thos. Sterling of the state uni
Versity law department appeared for
the plaintiff and the commissioners
were represented by C. Fl. Dillon of
Yankton and States Attorney Triton
of this city. The argument advanced
by Dean Sterling was to the effect that
under the law as 1t now exists the COM
missioners have no power to levy as
SesSmentS on moneys and credits where
the assessor nor town board has re-
turned no assessment on same. The
old law gave the commissioners this
power, but it was rescinded in 1908, or,
rather, amended in a way to make the
town board or assessor responsible for
assessments.

THE SMOUT CASE.
Defense Prevents Testimony as to Re-
lation of the Church with Po-
litical PARTIES

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE defense in
the Senator Smoot investigation today
called to the stand f. Fl. Holsheimer Il
practicing lawyer of POcatello, Idaho
He lived in Utah about twenty years
before going to Idaho two years ago.
He belongs to the Episcopal church and
said he always had been a democrat
except for a time in Utah, when, in
common with all Gentiles, he belonged
to the liberal party. The examination
of Hoshemer was confined almost en-
tirely to political conditions in Idaho.
He WAS Il member of the last democrat
ic convention, which adopted the anti
Mormon plank, and served on the reSO-
lutionS committee. He declared he had
opposed the plank for the extermina-
ton of pOlygamy and polygamous CO.
habtation, and the separation of
church and state on the grounds that
no plank of that character was needed,
as there had been no plural marriages
in the state since the manifesto.
Witness said the majority of dele
gates opposed the plank, but the resoiu-
ton was forced on the convention be-
cause it was understood former Senator
Heitfeld, who had been endorsed for
governor. had made pledge to the ma
tional convention that it should be
adopted. Afterward he was nominated
for congress but declined to run on the
ticket because the party leaders pro-
posed to conduct Il campaign directed
against the Mormon church.

MAJORITY is HEAVY.
1t Is Said 80 Per Cent. of the House
Opposes Revision

Washington, Jan. PA prominent mem
Der of the ways and means committee of
the house said to the Associated Press
that the poll which the leaders of the
house had conducted of the republican
members on the question of tariff revision
showed that so per cent Of the members
who had been approached were against re-
vision.
All of the leaders of the house except
Representative Payne. chairman of the
ways and means committee. who is laid
up with rheumatism, and Representative
Tawney, are against revision. The work
of crytalliZing the sentiment against re-
vision Is being done by Representative
DalZell, of Pennsylvania, and General
Grosvenor, Of Ohio. The tangible result
in this direction, it Is said, is the
signature of practically all of the repub-
lican members from the states of Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, New York, New Jersey and
West Virginia to petitions against tariff
revision. The Pacific coast delegation en-
dcavorcd to get together today, but with
out avail The friends of revision seem
/ to be taking no active interest in advanc-
Ing their ideas in the house, but claim to
have many members in the various dele
cations on their side.

The Pcstoffice inspector.

Washington, Jan. 14.-Postmaster
General Wynne has issued an order
transferring the entire corps of postof
flee inspectors from the jurisdiction of
the fourth assistant postmaster gen
eral, and placing them Immediately un-
der the postmaster general. The action
is taken on the ground of subscribing
the best interests of the government
and also is based on the fact that in
spectors of other executive depart
ments are directly under the head Of
the department. The order is effective
next Monday, and affects over 200 men
scattered throughout the country. The
order is one OF the most important is
sued by the department for long pc
Rod and may create significant de-
velopments. Fourth Assistant Post
master General Bristow, who is siren
uously opposed to the transfer, has
made efforts to avert the transfer.

Says No Other Power but Gov
ernnaent Can Do It Now.

Madison, Wis, Jan. 1.-THE main
feature of Governor LaFollette's mes
sage. which he read personally to the
legislature today, was a demand for an
appointive freight rate commission, the
last Of the big reforms asked by the
governor. He also urged repeal of the
mortgage taxation law, the enactment
of an income tax and better protection
against railroad accidents.
1.-THE time has come" said the COVER
nor, "for decisive action. Control of the
price Of coal. iron, food products and
other basic elements of our commercial
life by trust organizations IN connec-
ton with the great transportation sys-
TENS of the country, is absolutely de-
structive of political independence. 1t
is time to look to the government for
relief, and for its own sake no power
short of the government itself is ade-
uuate now TO meet existing conditions"

of the city, at its regular bi-monthly
meeting last night, unanimously adopt
cd resolutions opposing the proposition
of locating a Carnegie library in this
city This action of the leading literary
organization IN the city created great
surprise. The action is vigorously criti-
cised by many prominent residents who
have always been in favor of {, Carnegie
library in Canton, but it is probable
that 1t will kill the proposition to estab-

the club for the action taken is that
the venture will be an unnecessary and
unwarranted expense to the city, impos-
ing a burden that the city is unable to
