REGIsTRATToN BEGINs.
People Are Lining Up for the Grow
Reservation Lottery.

Billings. Mont, June 14.-Registra-
ton for lands upon the Crow Indian
reservation began here today.
Carl Myer, general land Office. and
Captain White are in charge and have
an adequate force of clerks to enroll
the thousands of citizens who will take
chances in the big lottery. Commis-
sioner General Richards of the general
land office, Will arrive from Cheyenne
Saturday.
Prohting by their experience at the
Uintah registration the government
forces have the crowd well in hand
and everything is moving along
smoothly. There are not so many PEG
pie present as expected the first day,
but it is understood that many have
been delayed by the washouts. The
registration for the day will amount to
about 500, according to an estimate
made a noon.
The registration offices at Miles City
did not open this morning. owing to the
failure of the necessary notary blanks
to arrive. Not to exceed two dozen
people from the east are at Miles City
and there appear to be little interest
there in the affair.

LAW PROTECTS TREES.
Property Owners Have a Title to Trees
in Parlzings.

A. A. Hurd says in a letter TO the
State Journal:
In last evenings issue 1 notice an
article in relation to the wanton de-
struction and injury of trees and
shrubbery in the parking in front of
Mr.. George Sharitt's residence in To-
peka, notwithstanding his protest
from which it would appear that the
statute regulating such matters is not
generally known. I think you ought
to publish section / of chapter los of
the session laws of 1905 for the in
formation of property owners IN the
city so that they may protect their
trees and shrubbery which they nave
at great expense and labor planted for
the Identification of the city and l en-
close herewith typewritten copy of the
section
The section of the statutes referred
to is as follows:
THAT the owners of real estate stu
ated in cities of the first, second and
third classes in the state of Kansas
abutting upon public streets and ave
nues in said cities shall have such
title to and property in growing trees
situated in front Of such real estate but
without the boundary line Of the streets
or avenues and within the curb line, and
also such title to and right of property
in the parking and ornamental shrub
berry planted and cultivated within the
curblfne Of such streets and avenue,
as to enable the owners, in case of in
jury to OF destruction Of such trees,
shrubbery, and parking, to recover from
the person. company or corporation
causing said injury or destruction the
full damages which the abutting pro-
perty in front Of which they are situa-
ted may sustain by reason thereof. not
withstanding the fee title to the land
in the streets and avenues may not be
in the owner of such abutting property
and such abutting property owners shaU
also have the right of action IN any
court of competent jurisdiction to en-
join injury to or destruction of such
trees, shrubbery, and parking: Provid-
ed, nothing herein contained viii de-
priye the mayor and council of such
cities of the right to direct by a pro-
per ordinance OF resolution the manner
of planting and c8ltivating such trees,
shrubbery and parking in the part of
the street where they shall be so plant
ed and cultivated, and from exercising
reasonable supervision over the same,
and causing them to be trimmed and
grown in such manner as not to inter
fere with public travel upon the streets

lola, Kan, June 1.-THE strike of the
iron moulders at the United Iron works
in this city. inaugurated some weeks
ago. when the men quietly walked out
on strike at the order of the general
union, assumed new phase today.
Recently the plants operated under

sued the statement that hereafter the
shops will be open shops" It was
stated that former employees will be ta-
ken back and union men employed, but
that the union will not be recognized

today when it is said that five mouders

MUST BE POLITE.
Waiter Girls Union Lays Down Rules
for Employers.


Chicago, June 1.-THE members of
the Mattresses union held an indigna-
ton meeting at which their sentiments
were crystallized unanimously in the
following maxims for the benefit Of
the managers:
Employers shall not use profane
language to Mattresses
Mattresses shall not be reprimand-
ed in the presence of guests.
These two dicta were carefully type
written and laid on the desk of the
manager of every down town restau-
rant where girls are employed Ac-
companying them was a note to the
effect that unless employers saw fit to
follow these rules they may be con-
frOnted with strikes.
The Indignation OF the young wo-
men is said to have been aroused when
a manager in restaurant discharged
a waitress for taking offense at a
reprimand. The manager afterward
apologized, it is said, but this did not
appease the wrath of the young wo-
men belonging to the union.

BROOKS IS PARDONED.
Get Rich Quick Nan Who Testified
Against Burton Escapes Prison.

St. Louis, June 1.-THE Globe-Demo-
crat of today says: Charles H. Brooks,
get-rich-quick promoter, who conducted
the National Securities company, and
was a partner Of Maj. Hugh Dennis in
the Rfalto Grain company walked into
the federal building yesterday, surren-
dered to United States Deputy Marshal
Nall and presented a pardon from Pres
ident Roosevelt, freeing him from a sew
enteen months penitentiary sentence.
Brooks was convicted of the using of
the mails in scheme to defraud, and
his sentence had been affirmed by the
federal court of appeals.
The pardon operates as a commuta-
ton of sentence. The president relieved
Brooks Of the prison sentence, but in
creased his fine from $3.50 to 81, 500 and
costs. Brooks paid 81. $40 and was re-
leased. Chester H. krum, his attorney,
accompanied him.
The pardon is a sequel to the second
trial Of Senator Burton of Kansas, when
Brooks appeared as q witness for the
government. To the charge made by
Burton's attorneys that Brooks had
testify he entered a denial on the stand
was then under conviction from
which he had appealed.
There was never any evidence that
Brooks had an understanding with the
government authorities. and it is sup
posed that he volunteered to testify and
take chances of getting a pardon after
ward Attorney General Moody is said
to have recommended the Communication
of sentence

TALKS ON RACE PROBLEM.
General Miles Delivers an Address at
Nebraska University.

Lincoln, Neb., June 1.-THE annual
commencement exercises of the Uni
ver.asy of Nebraska were held here to-
day, Hhe senior class and the graduates
of the several colleges, numbering
about 300, being addressed by General
Nelson A. Miles, this morning.
General Miles, referring to the race
problems this country has to solve,
said:
our past history, our present condition
and the probabilities of the future that
it might be we'll for Us to consider. The
natives Of this country who were dwell
ling in peace, contentment and happi-
ness when our ancestors landed upon
our eastern shores have been driven
from every valley and mountain crest
until their race has been nearly an
initiated. The Ethiopians, whose an
cestors were kidnapped on the coast of
Africa and sold into slavery along the
Atlantic and gulf coasts, were subject
ed to unrequited toll for more than 200
years and have now increased to be-
tween eight and ten millions OF souls.
More than eight millions of Malays are
now held by the arbitrary power of
our government with no Immediate
prospect Of relief or independence.
1.-THE red men, the black men and
the brown men have had a hard time
under our civilization. Whether this
VIII have an effect Of changing our
form of government from pure de-
mocracy to more restricted liberty
and centralized power, the future alone
can determine. In fact, whether these
different elements of our great popula-
ton will continue as homogeneous in
the future as in the past is a serious
problem.
'The only hope and salvation for this
nation is universal education and deep
seated, strong patriotism that shall
permeate and control every community

ONLY ONE WITNESS.
Standard Oil Company Has Little Testi-
mOny to Offer.

Cleveland, O.. June 14.-The interstate
commerce commission reopened the in
vestigation of the Standard Oil com
pany here today Judge C. A. Prouty
was the only member of the commission
present J. T. Marchand, chief counsel
for the commission was assisted by
Judge S. s. Mehard, of Pittsburg.
In opening the session Judge .Prouty
said he had received a letter from Virgil
P. Kline. chief counsel for the Standard
Oil company Of Ohio on June Z, in which
it was stated that the Standard Oil
company did not desire at this time to
offer any testimony.
Mr.. Kline, who was present, ecorrob-
grated this statement and said that this
course was decided upon because he be-
ieved that a full reply to all the charges
against the Standard Oil company was
now on file in the office of the commits
sioner of corporations.
Judge Prouty then asked if anybody
else desired to be heard and the only re-
Spouse was from Chief Counsel
Marchand who said he had the tesi-
nony Of one witness to offer, that of NJ.
c. Tully, an auditor in the freight de-
partment of the Lake Shore & Michigan
Southern Railway company.
Mr.. Tullys testimony was concerning
storage charges made against the stand
ard on company at Cn4cago anu II was
sought to draw from the witness state
ments concerning the methods used by
the railroad IN keeping such accounts, it
being the contention of Mr.. Marchand
that the railroad had allowed the storage
charges against the Standard Oil company
to 90 unpaid and that the auditors de-
partment in Cleveland had afforded the
local agent at Chicago relief in this re-
spect.
Mr.. Marchand endeavored to show that
this was a roundabout way Of giving the
Standard Oil company a rebate. Close
questioning on the part of counsel, howev-
er failed to obtain definite Information
from the witness regarding such allega-
tons.
Mr. Tully maintained that he did not
possess the information with which to en-
tighten the commission
Commissioner Prouty took the witness
! in hand and after a sharp examination or
Edered him to proceed to his office and OBJ
tain the accounts of the Chicago office for
the last two years containing the record
Of freight charges. The commission took
| q recess until Mr.. TuIly.s return.
