"The White House. Washington,
D. c., Dee. 10, 1906.-Dear Mr..
Bonaparte: Some years ago Sheriff

action in beating off a mob of sew
eral hundred white people who were

put him to death. Sheriff Merrill
and his deputies fired on the mob,
killing and wounding several men
and beating the others off. Because
of this he was defeated for re-elec-
ton. Congressman Adamson, say
ing that he hated to see a man who
had done such a service as a public
official defeated because of the very
fact that he had rendered the serv-
ice. He told me that Governor Ter.
rill had offered Merrill a place, the
best he had to give, which carried 4
salary of $50 per month. l told the
con gressman l thought l could beat
that, and got him a place at $1,000 d
year as custodian of the grounds OF
the federal prison at Atlanta. l hear
he has done we'll If he has done
well. can't We give him a promotion?
Sincerely yours,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

Of all. being 4G miles shorter than

Concerning this proposition a high
official of the ST. Paul says very en-
phatically: 1T is all 'bosh.' We par
allel the Northern Pacific in places,
it is true, not of our own choice bur
because we cannot help ourselves
owing to the lay of the country. We
would very gladly get away from
the Northern Pacific a hundred miles
or so if we could. But the lay OF
the country prohibits 1t. More than
that there will be business enough
for all hands by the time the st.
Paul line is pushed through. Mr..
Hartman has nothing to do with It
at all.
The foregoing statement seems to
be borne out by all the known data
in the case. The st. Paul scarcely
had choice of routes in the mat
ter. Starting from Evarts, it's pres
ent northwestern terminus, it follow.
ed practically the only route it could
to Seattle no matter whether its in
tentions were friendly to James J
Hill or not.
The following tabulation shows
the mileage of the various routes
from Chicago to Seattle, one beins
over the Great Northern and Bur-
lington, another over the Northern
Pacific and Burlington and the other
over the st. Paul line for the entire
distance.

THAT BAND FUND.

The developments OF the last twenty.
tour hours have not dimmed the wis
dom Of the recommendation made by
this paper that the way to bring back
the band Is to bring 1t back.
While worthy gentlemen OF the town
are trying TO lind ways and means To
get at the relief fund, the people are go
ing their several ways to do their share
To raise some money.
The Bulletin has already over 5000
available for this fund, which II has
been said must be only Ave times great.
er In order to bring the boys back.
The Hawaiian Club has made ar
engagements for public benefit and the
Delegate has called meeting OF prom.
inent Hawaiian societies TO devise other
means OF giving their portion,
Meanwhile persons who have a dol
lar or two to give are turning their
money into the Bulletin. where il will
be held to be added to the general fund
that may be gathered
We are inclined 10 believe that the
Bulletin IL making more Roadway than
those chasing the relief fund. although
we confess TO "a sympathy with the
theory which the Merchants Associa-
ton members have suggested.
The only objection To II Is that the
results are not forthcoming. As the
Bulletin stated In its last issue, IL has
the man available who will furnish all
the money needed for Immediate trans .
