Hearst and Dunno.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Dec. civilian Ran
dolph Hearst has neld two conferences
with Mayor Dunno, and political wise
acres are looking for a formal an
nouncement of the launching of the
new Dunno Hearst machine, as a re-
suit of the visit Of the New Yorker to
Chicago.
Mayor Dunno would not admit that
he was building up his political fences
with the aid of Mr.. Hearst. He said,
however, that he was holding a series
of conferences with friends for the
purpose of promoting the cause Of mu-
nicipal ownership and cheaper gas.
This is the first time the executive
has openly coupled the gas question
with that of public ownership and pol

Burton and Mitchell.

the governor of Kansas or Oregon
could either appoint his successor or
call the legislature in session to elect
him, as he saw fit The senate might
pass a resolution of expulsion, but
this would not be necessary.
Senator Mitchell is in precisely SIM
liar position. He was permitted to
appear in the senate and make a
speech declaring his innocence, but
this privilege was refused Mr.. Burton
because ne did not ask it at the out
set.
The cases of Senator Depew and
Plat are entirely different from those
of Mitchell and Burton. They have
not been convicted by the courts of
any offenses. Whatever disgrace has
been brought upon them by the in
surance revelations has resulted from
private business transactions, and it
is the policy of the senate to take no
cognizance of such matters.

Important Decision of South Dakota
Supreme Court.

SIOUX FALLS, Dec. 6.-Of the ut
most Importance to the wholesale
houses of the twin cities, Omaha, Sioux
City and other centers is the action of
the state supreme court in sustaining
the action of Judge Jones of the state
| circuit court in this city, who declared
unconstitutional section 2 of the pure
food law, enacted by the legislature at
its session last winter.
The original suit was instituted by
Bailey & voorhees,, local attorneys,
acting nominally for the wholesale
firm of Jewett Bros & Jewett of this
city, but it is understood that othe-
wholesale houses who are doing BUSH
ness in South Dakota were behind the
local men in the action.
Section of the pure-food law pro-
vides that the name of the manufac-
turer should be placed on the labels of
all provisions, groceries, etc. offered
for sale in South Dakota. The Jew
etts and other wholesale grocers have
their own brands Of canned goods,
bottled goods and coffees, which are
not purchased every year from the
same persons.
The contention of tina firm was that
the name of the wholesale firm was
just as mucn a protection to the pub
lie as that of the manufacturer; that
to enforce the section would be a hard
ship on all legitimate wholesale mer-
chants, and that no one would profit
by it unless it was the catalogue
houses.
Firms. doing business in South Da-
kota can now, in accordance with the
action of the state supreme court, use
their own individual labels on all
goods, no matter where they are man
ufactured.

Messrs. Burton and Mitchell nave

their appearance in the chamber might
compel the senate to take cognizance

 We are floating about in space at a respectable speed-some 6,00O miles an hour. A meeting with another heavenly body is not impossible and according to observations of the star of the Bear it was by a meeting. by a violent collision, that the catastrophe observed came about
 If two planets such as our own. de- void of any save reflected light, were to collide at the huge speed above stated, the shock would be so great as to create a flaming sun of such a tenn perature that it would continue for many millions of years in the state of a sun or burning nebula.
 The consequences of the meeting of our earth with a comet are hard to determine, but they would be tragic and disastrous. The speed of a comet through space is equal to that of our planet multiplied by the square root of two. which would be found to be about S4,OOO miles an hour. If the star met us squarely, the collision would take place at a speed of IA, GOO miles an hour. The velocity of other meet ings would depend on the angle.

The two foremost originated from the series of "Alphonse and Gas ton" illustrations which have appeared for nearly two years in the New York Sunday Journal and which have made cartoonist F.
