was mysteriously assaulted and is
lowering between life and death as

office, received his mail and then start
ed for the home of his friend, where he
had promised to make a call. AS h,
approached the house two men jump
ed out from the bushes along the road
side, siezed his horse by the bridl
and began firing.
Persons living nearby heard
shots and FASTENED to the scene

men making their escape. SOderland's
horse had got away and was running
down the road while Soderland lay
unconscious On the grass with bullet
wound in his side.

ton. and citizens and authorities are
making every attempt to catch the
aSSailantS.

ELECTION on At ZION CITY
New Overseer Must Be Selected to

ZION CITY, ILL.,, Sept 1S.-In accord
ance with an order issued by Judge
K. M. Lands, of the United States
District court an election is being neiu
here today for the selection Oh
new overseer, who shall act as trustee
of the property of the church WHICH
is variously estimated at between VIZ

rolled from his shoulders. He parted
with it in almost the same words pro-
posed by the convention two years be-
fore and stopped by him. This shows
democrats the danger of putting any
fantastic Bryan doctrines in their plat
form while he lives, for he will never
let them be taken out again until the
party has been churned in the mire Of
defeat. Then he will rise up with an
other world surprising issue to take
the dead ones place.
Mr. Bryan has an aphOrism that no
issue is settled until it's settled right
Ir Bryan is the great issue in tho
democratic party, and the party will
never have any peace until Mr.. Bryan
is settled right and good and plenty.

YOUNG WiIkie Is a Bad Man.

FERGUS FALLS, Mimi, Sept. 49,
Edward Wilkie, alias John Kelly, was
arrested here a week ago on the
charge of holding up John Romstad
beneath a Great Northern bridge. 1t
has since developed that Wilkie comes
from one of the leading families Of
Paterson, N. j., and his brother ar
rived from that city today with let
tiers from the mayor, judges of the
municipal court, the district congress-
man and other prominent officials,
urging that he be treated leniently.
Wilkie is a young fellow and started
out to be tough. He followed an
amusement company westward and
was finally arrested at Perham, this
county, for stealing beer. On his re-
lease he Immediately held up Mr..
Romstad and demanded his money,
and was captured and is now awaiting
sentence. His family is very much
chagrined over his escapades and will
make every effort to secure his re-
lease.

BRYAN'S RAILROAD PLAN.

Mr.. Bryan's fantastic dual, state and
national, ownership of railroads has
been before the public less than two
weeks, but in that short time the peer
less one has received an impression
that it is purely his own doctrine and
not to be forced on the democratic
party.
When he invaded Kentucky yester-
day Mr.. Bryan read a carefully pre-
pared statement in regard to the rail-
road question which showed that he
had been touched by the unpopular re-
ception of his plan. He does not ex-
pect it to go in the platform unless all
the democrats want it. This is very
fortunate for the democratic party, for
If they once put it in their platform
Mr.. Bryan could be depended upon to
see that it did not come out again no
matter how impracticable it might ap-
pear to be. Free silver was inserted in
the platform of 1896 and Mr.. Bryan
kept it there in 1900. He would not
let go of the issue, though he had
been decisively beaten upon it and the
country had declared as loudly as it
could that it preferred the single gold
standard. Every argument that mortal
men could voice was used to get Mr..
Bryan to consent to the dropping of
free silver. His final word on that
question was that the democrats might
| leave it out of their platform if they
liked, but they should, in that event,
leave his name off their ticket. This
was the sort of free voice the demo-
| Gratis had in their platform making in
1900.
In 1904 Mr.. Bryan went to St. Louis
and fought for three days against drop
ping free silver from the platform.
He succeeded finally in compelling the
convention to stultify itself by making
no allusion to the money question. In
1906, Mr.. Bryan returned from a trip
around the world and, like Christian
in 1.-The Pilgrims Progress" dropped
his burden. The weight of free silver

MASTERS, OR SERVANTS?

There will be a meeting Of the
council tonight 1t is not a secret
meeting and any one so desiring may
attend it and judge of the way some
of the city's affairs are mismanaged.
Just one meeting attended will con-
vince any fair minded man that there
are men in the city council who care
nothing for the opinions Of the tax
payers or property owners. A closer
inspection of the actions of some of
the councilmen will also generate the
suspicion that they are more than un-
fair to the people of the municipality.
For months the question of paw
ing streets to suit the property own
ers instead of the grafters has been
agitated. For more months the prop
erty owners hav. been turned down.
For weeks and weeks the people
have demanded enlightment on the
pipeline scandal. They have been met
at every turn with contemptuous re-
fusal.
But there is every indication that,
forced at last to take cognizance Of
public opinion, Bill Kirkman and w.
P. Mexican of the water committee,
will cause a certain sort Of report"
to be made tonight. The Statesman
would call attention to the rumor that
experts in the employ of the Warren
Construction company have been sit
ting up nights fixing up a report"
which will report nothing, but is de-
signed to protect Kirkman and Nc
Kean, the two men responsible for
whatever extravaganza and misman-
agement may have occurred in the
building of the pipeline.
1t is necessary also, in view of the
rumors flying about, to call attention
to the fact that any honest report must
be accompanied with vouchers and re-
ceipts. Unless this is done the report
will not be satisfactory
The people demand of Mr.. Kirkman
and Mr.. Mexican that they crawl out
into the open and be inspected.
They demand of the street committee
that honest, fair paving contracts be
made.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Sept. 1S.-The age
limit agitation has reached the
church. A minister who has attained
to his sixtieth year no longer has
the necessary vital force, activity and
hustle" to render himself valuable
to a congregation.
So the trustees of the Austin Con-
gregational church told their pastor.
Rev. E. B. Chase, yesterday. He
bowed before their wishes and wrote
his resignation, which will be acted
on by the members next Wednesday
evening.
Rev. Mr.. Chase has just passed the
sixtieth milestone and has been in
charge Of the church for five years.
His resignation is offered to take ef-
feet on Nov. 80.

BUTTE, Mont, Sept 1S.-The al
legel populations of William p Far
rell, until recently chief deputy for
Clerk of Court Davies, now exceed
$4,000, and are expected eventually
to reach $4,000.
Mr.. Davies is Of the opinion that
the issuance of false warrants for
jurors and witness fees, by which
method, it is alleged, Farrell secured
the money, did not originate in his
term of office. Farrell was deputy in
previous terms and the clerk Of the
court thinks the acts charged to Far
rell begun before he took charge Of
the Office.
Farrell is in Jail and as yet no
charge has been filed against him, the
officials waiting until the checking of
his books is completed. Dancer, who
bought the alleged counterfeit war
rants is also in Jail. He denies that
he knew the warrants sold to him by
Farrell were bogus. What, if any, is
the responsibility Of Dancer under
the criminal law, remains to be seen.

that Mckay came onto the Brigham
