Loss Of ronsils Fatal.

Reinbeck, March 1.-THE practice of
removing the tonsils, advocated by an
eastern surgeon because these organs
are supposed to furnish a breeding
ground for the numerous bacilli which
find lodgment in the human system,
will not prove popular in this vicinity.
Saturday, shortly after a tonsil had
been removed from the ten-year-old
son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Horstman,
the child died. The little lad was
brought by his father to a physicians
office to undergo the removal of that
portion Of his throat which had been
causing trouble. The operation is
simple one and no thought was given
to possible fatal consequence. When
the father cid not return home in a

to step down to the governors chair,
said Henry Wallace, of Des Molnes, In
an address; on the rate question before
the Wnpcllo County Farmers and
Stockmens Institute at the Market
street theater yesterday afternoon.
Mr.. Wallace is editor Of Wallace's
Farmer and turnout his interesting adj
dress was listened to with the closest
attention and frequently interrupted
with laughter and applause.
The remarks regarding the COVER
norship we're in response to President
Lloyd ID. Burton, who introduced Mr..
Wallace as man known 10 every
farmer in the state and who the farm
ers would some day urge for the chief
executive of the state.
Mr.. Wallace said that the cause OF
the complaints from the farmers
against the railroads was the longer
and slower time In getting their stock
to market and the refusal to restore
the return passes to shippers.
THE railroads" he said, mad been
making many improvements. were US
ing larger engines and hauling longer
trains, so as to haul the greatest pos
sible amount OF freight by using
minimum amount OF coal. The result
was that the trains run slower, and
ever since the adoption OF the tonnage
system by the railroads In January.
1908. the farmers had noticed much
greater shrnkage In their stock ship
ments. The railroads, instead of feed
ing their engines coal worth $40 ton
had been feeding beef worth 500
ton. At a conference OF railroad Off
cials and representatives from farmers
associations, the officials have ex-
pressed a wish to do everything pos
sIble for the best interests Of the farm
ers and the stock trains We're making
better time now, but the run In west
ern Iowa and Nebraska was still from
five to seven hours long. He believed
that this condition would be remedied
in the near future.

SONORA OFFICIALS IN
 THE SLAVE BUSINESS
REPORT THAT YAoUi INDIANS
 ARE BEING SOLD TO YucA- 1 TAN PLANTERS.

An astonishing story to the effect that Yaqui Indians are being sold into peonage by somebody high in author. ity in Sonora has been brought to Douglas by responsible persons, who have recently returned from Hermo- sillo and Guaymas. According to these stories officials of the govern, the railroad men of this great and ment are responsible for the practice, and no real effort is made to keep the matter secret. Of course, the story is not shouted from the house, tops, but it is said that any one who cares to know can do so with little trouble.
 It appears from what can be gath. cred here that the Mexican govern. ment has ordered the deportation to Yucatan of all Yaquis who are even suspected of causing the recent trou- bles in that locality. In the south they are dumped upon the plantations, which, engaged as they are, in the production of coffee and tropical fruits, can use all YaQuis, who are considered the best work people in the republic. that can be secured.
 It is charged. however, that this or der has been construed by certain off cials to mean all Yaquis caught, and that by contract with planters in Yu catan, the Indians are transported south at the expense of the govern. ment and there go at once to the plantations, where they enter imme. diately upon a life of peonage and are practically the property of the planter who contracted with the officials at Guaymas
 The price per Yaqui has not been given out, but as there are plenty of 'Yaquis to supply the demand, and as the commodity costs the seller abso lutely nothing, and in addition to this the government paying the freight, the price is not fixed very high, al though the demand is said to be very large.
 The Yaqui Indians are thought well of by American employers in Sonora, and the action of the government in depOrting them has caused much com plaint from this source. The Ameri cans claim that they cannot get la. borers who will do the work the Yaquis did, even at advanced pay, and are disgusted at the order that has stripped or will strip them entirely of their best source of labor
 On the other hand tLe order is pop ular in Yucatan. where labor is of the very worst kind. and the planters are willing to do anything in reason tol get first call on the Yaquis. Hence the graft that is said to be going on at the capital of Sonora and on the coast.

important Street Work -

important Street Work - Street Commissioner Andy Scott has just completed a number of street improve ments which will do away with the great volume of water flowing along c avenue with every rain. Along A avenue from Third to Eighteenth streets. the street has been graded down, and a big canal constructed on the east side of the avenue throughout that distance. This canal is quite large enough to take care of all the water both ways from Fifteenth street and with rains such as are usual the spectacle of c avenue impossible ex' cept by boat will never be witnessed again, according to calculations. The street commissioner nas also placed culverts at the crossings of Tenth street and A avenue and at Seventh street and E avenue, identical with the one placed at Tenth street and c avenue, and last nights rain proved their efficiency.

Copper City Happenings of Interest
ATTENDANCE OF THE
 CITY PUBLIC SCHOOLS
SHOWS CONTINUED GROWTH OF
 THE CITY OF DOUGLAS.

The second month of the present term of the Douglas public schools closed yesterday, and the enrolment at present is but 13S less than that of Bisbee. The total enrolment now is 941, against 696 for the month of Octo Der last year. Of these. 4S7 are girls and 454 are boys. The average daily attendance was SIT. against 596 last year The percentage of daily attend ance for the two years, however, is just the same-96 per cent. There were eighty-nine new pupils enrolled in October, and the principal reports that almost every day brings new pu- pills.
 This is taken as an argument that Douglas is rapidly becoming the home of many people who have not been figured in the estimated population heretofore.
 Miss Reithal, who comes here from Deming, N. M. will take charge of the first grade of the Seventh street school on Monday. This grade has been divided, the former teacher, Miss Broyles. taking 8 section of the class to the Fifteenth street school, while the new teacher is provided for the part left at the Seventh street school
 The Seventh street school will probably be named the Washington school by the trustees. This action is looked for because of a vote taken Thursday by the pupils for a name for the school The majority was over. whelming in favor of the name of the first president, while the Fifteenth street pupils voted for Lincoln, and it is expected that the trustees will respect the wishes of the pupils by naming the schools as they desire.
 The PirtleVille school will retain it's present name because of it's location
 The pupils have been engaged for some time on a work to be sent to the territorial fair as an education ex- hibit. This work will be finished next week. and will consist of map draw ing, exercises in Lain, and, in short will cover the entire school work When the exhibit is returned after the fair it will be placed on exhibition in Douglas to show the work which has been done thus far this year.
 The rapid increase in the number of pupils is expected to result in fur ther appropriations of funds for use in the local schools.
