All the world rcjoiceS today at the
conclusion Of peace between Russia
and Japan. and thcworldwill accord
the praise and honor OF its accom-
plishnents at this time to Theodore
Roosevelt. Without his bcnciicent
services the war would have gone ON
indefinitely. and the world would
have been shocked again and again
by stories of carnage and slaughter.
1t is not So much OF interest to the
nations of the earth what the terms
of the peace treaty are. as 1t Is that
peace has been made. The warlng
nations are not SO much to be- con
graduated. Japan OH the one SIDE
because she was at all times trlum-
phant on the field of battle. nor Rus
STA on the other that she gained a
notable diplomatic victory at Ports
mouth. as they are that there will be-
no more battles and no more blood
shed. To our minds am honorable
peace has been concluded. Honorable
TO Japan because she showed mag
nanimitv ASA victor. and secured all
and more than shedemanded priorto
hostilities. and honorable 10 Russia
because it is devoid of any humlli-
ating concessions. Both nations
have elevated themselves iii the eS-
TEEN of the other nations ot the
world. and after all. nations. like in
dividuals. are dependent upon the
good will and esteem Oi their neigh
bors. Great problems now confront
both nations. Japan must assume
the duties and responsibilities OF the
preponderant power in the far East,
while Russia must engage in the
work of regeneration at home. We
bid them both God speed. and with
the courage they have displayed in
war to back them. We cannot hut
hope that their ways will lead to
pleasantness and their paths 10 con-
tinued peace.

and all on account of the bindery
business.
Referrinfi to the hook and papers
in his possession, Nethercutt said
they had been brought t. him by
Knight, but whether with design or
simply casually he does not know.
Nethercutt fatty denied that he
ever said he would "bawl Collin
out" as the term is not one used
by him under any circumstances.
Coming to the meeting of Collin
and Charlie Carpenter on Mill
street, Nethercutt said that he
would have to have a settlement,
and that in reply Collin said that
he had not done right, for he should
have Nethercutt arrested.
The incident at the Brook sa-
loon followed a talk between Meth
circuit and Knight by which the lat
ter thought that settlement could
be had of the Collin-N 2thercutt
troubles on the basis of Collin as
signing to Nethercutt the $S3S
notes in Nethercutt's possession
and the remainder in cash. knight
showing Nethercutt some gold.
Nethercutt went to the saloon at
the call of Knight, and expecting to
, sign a stipulation for the dismissal
of the suit and the transfer of a
bill of sale of the notes and the
payment of cash to cover the $1,000
claim against Collin and the costs
Of the suit.
Knowing that Collin had inserted
in his answer to the civil suit that
he had never employed Nethercutt
as his attorney the latter expected
at the saloon to have Colin sign a
statement that he had employed
Nethercutt as attorney, as a clear
ance of Nethercutt because Collin
had misstated facts in his answer.
The court took Reese at this
point, and Nethercutt said he was

Collin practically agreed to the con-
tract which Nethercutt had at
tempted to get in as evidence,
which was to the effect that the
notes and stock of the bindery were
to be made in Nethercutt's name.
By agreed" Knight meant that Col
lin knew its contents and made no
dissent. Knight had never heard
of any objection on the part of
Collin to Nethercut-'s name on the
papers until after Nethercutt had
commenced his suit against Col
lin.
Knight testified that the "dupIi-
cate" notes were not made until
the date of the agreement between
Collin and Knight on Oct. II, and
Knight had never asked for such
notes until then.
Waterbury Hendricks testified to
having seen Collin in Ne.hercutt's
Office between the 18th and goth
of August. G. f. Backus swore that
Collin had been in Nethe,cutt's Of
flee during July and August from
six to ten times, thus contradicting
Collins testimony .aat he had new.
er been there more than three
times.
Nethercutt then took tn, stand in
his own behalf and commenced his
narrative. He said that Collin was
interested enough in the Knight
Taylor troubles to ask Nethercutt
to see Knight and feel of him" and
find out If Knight wanted Collin to
buy Taylor out.
"Figure up and tell me how much
is needed" is said to have been
Collins instructions to N-thercutt.
The latter then went into great
detail establishing his employment
by Collin and giving an account Of
all moneys handled by him in the
transaction. Nethercutt said that

phone and at his house during the

COLD THRUST AT BARNHART.

caustic comment concerning the
circumstances under which he plac-

have criminal significance In SUBJ
stance he said:
