Hines Has Another Idea.

Frank l.. Hines, superintendent of
waterworks, yesterday suggested to the
city council waterworks committee that
IL might be a good idea 10 ask the may
or and the council To prohibit lawn
spIinkling entirely for a While and To
remit water taxes for the months of
September and October, or as Ions as
the restriction continued. Mr. Hines
Idea is that so long as citizens pay wa
ter taxes they win feel they have a
right 10 use more or less water for
spTinkling purposes. The committee
took the suggestion under advlsement
and NAV offer II to the council
The Thirteenth East reservoir had
only j few inches of water In it to meet
the sprinkling period last night. and
the few inches were soon cleaned out
The expected chortage came and re-
manned for an hour or two, although II
was not so pronounced as on Tuesday
evening

FRIDAY. AUGUST ii.
OPEN MEETINGS..

the Newark EWING News takes
a sensible view Of the Court of Par
dons in holding that its sessions
should not be in secret. The court
complains that it is often imposed
upon and the Newark Evening News
declares that il the hearings and de-
liberations we're open, the court
could hear more than one side of a
case and 1t would give the public an
opportunity to furnish evidence to
counterfeit any arguments some BIZ
ased friends of the prisoner might of
fer. The Newark Exening News has
always stood against star-chamber
sessions as being opposed to the Am
erlcan system of government, where
the officials are merely the represent
atives of the people. The public have
a right to know what is going on. If
meetings were more open the daily
papers would not be filled with so
many stories of graft.

IRVING
Complainant Rhinock Charges Grim
inaI ibel.


NEW YORK. Aug. l1.-Robert A.
Irving, publisher of the New Yorker,
has been arrested charged with crimi-
nal libel. He was about to start for
Newport. Irving was taken at once
to the criminal courthouse, arraigned
before Magistrate Breen and in de-
fault was locked up in the Tombs.
The complainant is Congressman
Rhinock of Covington. Ky, who some
weeks ago caused the arrest of Robert
W. Criswell, editor of the New Yorker,
on a similar charges Crlswell subse-
uuently met with a tragic death be-
meath a subway train.
The charge against Irving grows out
of the same article upon which the
prosecution of Criswell was basel. The
article censured Congressman Long
worth of Ohio for Introducing MIR.
Rhinock to Miss Alice Roosevelt dur
ing the visit of the presidents daugh-
ter TO the Latonia races, near Gin
cinnati.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Newark Advertiser:

Newark Advertiser:
In an account of the hold-up of a
fast freight on the Atlantic City rail
road, near Egg Harbor City, yester-
day, it is stated that "Chief of Po-
lice Senft, who went with several
men to the scene of the trouble" up
on being notified by one of the crew,
who had escaped and 'phoned TO that
official, failed to capture either of
the two negroes who stopped and
boarded the train. They were called
upon to surrender, and in true west
ern fashion refused to do so, and
escaped, although followed by the
police and some of the crew.
1t is easy to sit in safety, to be
sure, and criticise in a case of this
kind, but it is by no means unreas-
enable to feel that an armed posse,
backed by a train crew, should have
made d rather better showing. 1t
is to be feared that the holding game
will be encouraged by so fiat a fail
ure of law officers to apprehend
such desperate criminals caught red
handed under circumstances peculiar
.ly favorable to the administration of
a drastic lession against an extension
OF the western crime to our own
borders.

Governor Stokes has signed the
last three bills left upon his desk by
the legislature which adjourned last
March. One of these bills is the
measure increasing the circuit court
judges from four to five in number.
There is no doubt but that as soon
as the constitutional Limitation of
i've years has expired, another
amendment will be submitted to the
people for the reorganization of our
judicial system. That some reform
is sadly needed is admitted by al
who have any dealings with the
courts. When it takes three ant
four years to get a CASE through the
upper courts because of the number
OF cases already on the calendar, /
Is high time something was done. Thu
people have had their eyes opened IL
this regard since they defeated thu
last amendment offered.

JAP TERMS
VERY HARD.
Russians BaIk at Peace Con-
ditiOns Reimbursement
fer Cost of War.
WANT COST OF WAR.

PORTSMOUTH, N. H., Aug. IL
The critical point in the peace confer
ence has been reached. Within TWEEN
ty-four hours it is thought that it will
be practically decided whether or not
the ear will accede to The demands
Of the Japanese, although the negotia-
tions over minor points may drag
along for several days or weeks.
The text of the Japanese terms so
far rs essentials are concerned will
stand as presented in writing by Baron
government to decide whether they
shall be accepted.
At the session of the conference
Baron Komura handed to NJ. WHITE
the terms of peace formulated by the
emperor and the elder statesmen of
Japan. The former minister of the in
terror of the Russian empire promptly
thrust the papers into an inside pocket
and the session of the peace confer
ence was then declared adjourned.
The japanese at once went to lunch
con, but Nj. White and Baron Rosen
retired to their private rooms, where
they examined the document on which
so much depends.
NJ. White personally put into cipher
for transmission 10 his imperial master
the czar with his own upon
the character of the conditions of the
Japanese demands and his views as tc
what action had best be taken.
1t IS said that Japan's peace terms
have fairly staggered the Russian Ell
voys. Among other demands which
she has made-the money indemnity
alone being susceptible of scaling-are
said to be the following:
Reimbursement for the expenses sus
tanned in the prosecution of the war
the cession of the island of Sakhali.
and the limitation of Russia's naya
strength in the far east constitute til,
main features of Japan's peace condi
tons. The word Indemnity" was care
fully avoided, the term employed bein
reimbursement for the cost of th,
war. No sum was fixed, the amour
being distinctly adjourned for mutua
adjustment between the two countrie
after the Japanese expenditure la
been ascertained. These are the all i'm
portant conditions. and it is known
that the Russian plenipotentiaries fint
them absolutely unacceptable.
Cession of IL portion Of Amur prov
ince in Siberia.
Cession of Sakhalin island and Dial
ny.
REIMBURSEMENT of all Russian rights
IN the Liautong peninsula.
Obligating Russia not to interfere
with the Japanese fortification of Port
Arthur.
Cession of the Eastern China railroad
from Hardin to Port Arthur.
Recognition of the predominance OF
| Japanese influence in Korea.
Evacuation of Manchuria by tho
Russians.
Obligating Russia to not interfere
with the open door policy in Man

GETS TWO YEARS
Fred Van euren, IS Year Old Boy, Who
Was Indicted For Stealing Horse
and Buggy Belonging to J. N. Baush-
man, Sent to Fort Madison.


Fred Van Buren,, who was indicted
for the larceny of a horse and buggy
belonging to j. N. Baughman, and who
pleaded guilty Monday was sentenced
to two years at hard labor in the Fort
Madison penitentiary by Judge Burn
ham this afternoon. Van Buren's
crime, brought out by the question
of Judge Burnham before he passed
sentence, would seem to have been the
result of lack of home influence. and
the climax to four years of wandering
about. working but little. and constant
ly on the move
Van Buren, said he was Is years OF
age, and has no home. His mother is
dead, and of his fathers whereabouts
he knows nothing. For four years he
has been tramping about, working now
and then, but never sticking to one
thing for any length of time. He said
the thought to steal the horse and
buggy came to him after he had rent
ed it to go to a farm west Of town.
where he had been working. BY good
behavior Van Buren, can shorten his
sentence to one year and nine months.
