Washington, D. C~.-Thousands or
children were stamped as illegitimate

preme Court. The principle estab-.
lished is that a State cannot grant a d.

rage is a resident within its jurisdic-
ton. A divorce must be Of such a
character as to be respected by all
other States. The decision was by g
vote of five to four-Justices Harlan.
Brewer, Brown and Holmes dissenting.
1t is estimated that at least 10000
children are affected by the opinion.
These are the offspring of marriages
based on divorces granted where but

Columbus, o., Aug. 22.-The conf

When the Ohio democratic ccnven-
tion assembled today it was with the
knowledge that the fight on county
option in temperance legislation, as
part Of the declaration of principles,
was assured. The protracted night
session of the committee on platform
had been insufficient to bring the diff
ferent opinions together. Many of the
temperance advocates among them,
leaders of the anti-saloon league, were
understood to be willing to accept a
compromise. but w. L. Finley had all
along maintained that no compromise
which left the county option idea at
all obscured would be acceptable to
him and the delegates were not sur
prised at the prospect of a minority
report. The proposition of Finley for
local option by counties. the present
laws providing only for township and
residence district option. came before
the convention as an amendment to the
report of the platform committee. The
proposal made by Finley to the COM
mittee was rejected. but was SUBJ
mitted by him as an amendment to the
report of the committee on resolutions
when that was presented to the con-
vention today.
Finley spoke at some length in sup
port of his motion. Rev. Herbert +.
Bigelow of Cincinnati, whose COM
promise substitute before the commit
tee last night was accepted by Finley,
then and today was presented by him
for action by the convention. followed
in support of the substitute plank.
After much discussion the Finley re-
port was adopted.
For secretary of state Samuel A.
Hoskins was nominated.

st. Cloud, Minn., Aug. 22.-There is
a big bed of good iron ore in Santiago

The first definite word from the
newly discovered iron territory was

those who have been watching the
work that the vein is at least fifteen
miles long, and a mile or two wide.
1t is supposed to extend up into Ben

Foley.
The investigation is presumed to be
made by the steel trust and one of the
prominent Duluth members of the

effects. On arriving at Reston. Man.,
he had sold them to one A. A. Nc
Murchy, who in turn sold them to

completed his work and landed the
horses in Moosomin, having Travelled
in all about 200 miles.
Peterson received his hearing TODAY
before Inspector A. M. Jarvis and Mr..

is worth all it is capitalized for, and
as to taxation. the company will not
murmur as long as its property is as

real value as is the property of pri-
vate citizens.
1T is almost universally the custom
in every part of the country" he says,
Ito transport free of,charge, national,

the railroads and claim on the con-
science of the officials, nor have 1

has voted or been expected to vote,
against his convictions because of

There will be no objection on the
part fthe company to cease issuing
passes. If the people of Kansas desire
this to be done.
AS to the railroad in politics, Presi-
dent Ripley says: I'VE have the same
interests in good government as any
other citizen and the same right to
display that interest. As the largest
corporation in the state and the larg-
est tax payer, we have vital interest
in sane and conservative legislation,
and when, as has too often been the
case, there is danger that the state
will be swept off its feet by appeal to
passion and prejudice, made by the
designing demagogues for their own
personal, ends, it becomes duty to
oppose those men by fair and legal
means; and in such cases and in such
cases only, will the Santa He be, found

Washington, Aug. 22.-Brigandage is
so common near Smyrna, Syria, that
the Americans have appealed repeated
ly to the American consul there for
protection against brigands in the
licorice root fields and tobacco plan
tations adjoining the city. The for
eign population is moving into the city
from the suburbs because of the fear
that brigandage which has been visited
only upon Ottoman subjects so far,
will be extended to the foreign popu-
lation.
The unsatisfactory condition in
Smyrna was detailed in dispatch to
the state department from Ernest
Magnifico, the American vice-consul to
that city. Outlawry is said to exist
in Aidin, Vilayet, one of the suburbs
of Smyrna, to greater degree than
in twenty years. Within few months
practically all the wealthy Ottomans
have moved out of the suburbs and
the English consul has posted notice
that all BIRTHS hsubjects who go into
the interior do SO at their peril.
Americans have been advised that
travel in the interior is unsafe.
