HEAVY CALENDER
OF civil CASES

! When the district court meets, Sep.
TENDER "a, a large CALENDAR will be
presented. Forty-six cases were con-
| tinued over from last term, and 20
new onas have been added. 1t Is i'm
possible to tell how many of these
cases will come before the court at
this time as that will depend upon the
action of the attorneys.
The bulk of the cases will be civil.
The state of Idaho VS.. Mitchell. on A
murder charge. will come before the
court, but up to the present time no
papers have been filed with Clerk Erb
on this case.
The sheriff's office reports that
everything is exceptionally quiet for
TINS time of the year. Cases cannot be
forced upon the calendar after last
Saturday, and it has usually been
very busy week. The week before

He SCORES ARMOUR.
Joseph NIedHI Patterson Invades the
Chicago stock Yards District.

Chicago. March 29-"Cemra1e'' 7seph
Mediu Patterson invaded the stock
yards told the Packing Trust employees
that they were foolish in their political
affiliations and then vigorously attack
ed J. Ogden ArHpuur and his system. "
Back skinners, S13 week; dry
salter, ST; cattle stickers, $f3; laborers,
ST, and J. Ogden Armour, 100000 a
week. Now you see something is wrong
with your system.
Every one who works for Armour
helps to contribute to a purse of s5.000,-
900 a year for him. He has his $780,
100000 and you have to give him a So
900, 900 purse every year. On the aver
age every one of his $4,000 employees
gives him S100 a year. I'm talking CAIN
~ to make you know"
Before giving the figures on wages
Mr.. Patterson read statements concern
ing packing house pay from the United
States Bureau of Labor statistics for
1904 and called for verihcation from the
audience

mo, no. a dozen voices in the crowd

of them" declared the back skinners
get SO or S13 a week
In the same way Mr.. Patterson Fro-
cured figures for other grades of work
men.
Nov. J. Ogden Armour owns what
you know OF here In the stock yards,
Mr.. Patterson went on. HE owns sim
ilar plants at Omaha and elsewhere.
and he owns refrigerator cars. He also
owns city councils. Suppose ne should
own all these things and suppose no
body would work for him. He couldn'
do a thing So the most valuable thing
he owns Is the power to compel 10000
4 people, not any particular individuals,
/ but that many people under the present
/ system, to work for him, not because
they love him, but because they have to
or starve.
1--WE hear talk about American equal
/ ity of opportunity. There was equality
of opportunity when there was more
land But Is there now? This young
man. J. ogden Armour, started at thir-
ty-hve with s75,00O 600. Interest has
/ raised the amount. It is absurd to say
that any of you started with an equal
opportunity
In the stock yards you pay tribute
to Armour, Morris or Swift The pres
ent system is almost as bad for the
+ children Of the rich as it is for the poor
The poor man turns himself into beast
because he's not good enough; the rich
man turns himself into beast because
he's got too much. Elect a Socialist
house, a Socialist senate, then we will
have a socialist supreme court aVd

MAY DISRUPT UNION.
Miners are Not Fully Agreed Regard
ing Terms of Settlement.

Indianapolis. March 29-Before
the toint conference of miners and
ooerators went into joint session this
afternoon. miners of Ohio and Illinois
held caucuses to consider the proposi-
tion of r. L. Robbins of Pittsburg to
nav the advance in wages asked. The
meetings we're secret but 1t was
learned that the miners of both states
are practically a unit against allowing
anv district or any mines to run under
the advance unless it is granted TO al
miners in the central competitive dis
trict.
Western Pennsylvania miners are
divided. A strong faction favors ac-
ceDtina the advance no matter what
the national convention does, even go
ing to the point of threatening to
leave the union.
Coal Prices Advanced.

price of coal on contract has been ad-
vanced from so to 10 cents here be-
cause Of fear OF strike.

state Won't Lose Anything on Phil
lips County Defalcation.

On account of the sensational ex-
posures of shortages in the county
treasury of Phillips county, involving
renittances which should have been
made to the state for school land
sales, State Accountant J. c. Gafford
today started in his force on an ex-
animation of the Phillips county land
sales It will take several weeks to
complete this examination, as the
Phillips county sales have been very
extensive, and it is necessary to go
back to 1860 in making the record.
It is understood that the eX-couuty
treasurer robbed the state of about
$4,000 which should have been paid
in on school land sales.
''The state will not be out any
because of the defalcation of the Phil
lips county treasurer said J. G. CAT
ford today 1.-THE money was Paid
over to the county. and the county Is
liable to the state for all the shortage.
Bowman's bondsmen Will have to
make it good"
The clerks in the accountants Office
have been working on the land in
vestigation for some weeks, but have
been taking up the counties in alpha
betical order. As they had only com
menced to work on the &C" counties,
it would have taken too long for
Phillips county to be taken up in its
turn

The authors reply IS said TO be
quite the finest piece of writing he has

six Foreigners Held for the Wholesale
Murder at Minneapolis.

Duluth, Mimi, March 29.-Six for
eigners who are thought by the po-
lice to have occupied the house in
Minneapolis where six Bulgarians
were found murdered early Tuesday
morning. were arrested here today.
One man. who talks English, says
the party left on Monday the house
in MINNEAPOLIS where the murders
were committed, and that at that time
there were only six men in the house
and that they were all alive and Well
He says he knew but two OF the men
there at that time. His name is Kuz-
man Sckuloff, and a woman arrested
with the party is his wife
SckulOff admitted that he Is the
man who rented the house and took
the party there, but he maintains that
everything was all right when he left
there with his party. Some are Bull
earfans and some Macedonians- All
are well supplied with money Later
five other men were arrested IN con-
nection with the case.
Sckuloff says when the party en-
tered the Minneapolis house It num-
bered 16, and ten of these came to
Duluth. leaving six there. OF the six
four were brothers of the name DIM

itris We're father and son Is wrong
The Dimitris went to the train Mon
Sckuloff says there was the best of
feeling in the house. The ten who
came to Duluth we're on their way
to work in the mines. The party be-
fore going to Minneapolis had been
at Alberin station and numbered
more than 1 6. but the others remained
in Duluth preparatory to going out
on section work. They came from the
province of Presba, near Bulgaria,
which they say is under Turkish rule.
SckuIoff expressed surprise at hearing
of the murder. but when asked for a
theory shrugged his shoulders. threw
UP his hands and said he did not
know.
The effects of a religious nature
found in the house he says are prayer
books and other things of the Bull
garian church. of which they are
members. and which they always carry
with them.

now well established that the killing
of the six Macedonians was carefully
