- fLONEL LJAESCHKIN had
distinguished himself greatly
in the Russo-Japanese war.
Understand me we'll. il was
not ct the front that he had distin-
guished himself. as leader Of men. but
rather in the rear of the army as a
conqueror Of women. IN the camp at
Hardin. every one knew that there
was no officer in the whole army who
had more beautiful nor more sxpen-
sive female friends than he. II was
not strange then that he had received
several decorations and a sword Of
honor from the Car, thanks to his
good character and noble birth-possf-
bly, his immense fortune nad also
helped matters along some. Il IS
enough TO say that he who was hardly
thirty years old. was already a colonel
with brilliant prospects OF rapid pro
motion.
Just now a most important mission
had been eonfded to him. with MS
regiment he nad been sent to a city in
the interior of Russia. where the
Tevolutionists were very strong. and
as he, being ali powerful master. ruled
the city With an iron hand il was
safe TO predict that ne would soon be
raised 70 the rank Of a general, with
the possibility of a governorship.
OF course. ais surroundings knew all
this very wei, and it was quite natural
that they eudeav0red TO md out all
his peCuliarfties and habits. Spies
were around him everywhers-on al
sides, and at last they found out his
vulnerable point. and this point was
his weakness toward the weazer. sex.
There was one standing order in
MS Office, NO lady who is the least
good looking mast ne turned away. o.

THE PANAMA MINERS.

The movement of the Panama miners is a matter of course-a thing that has come on naturally and at the time it was to be expected Wherever there is need for any considerable number of wage earners there is need for them to be organized. and their organization is beneficial to the employers as well as to themselves. The first great good it does the employers is to necessitate their own organization. Then each side is in position to systematically guard its own selfish interests and to give as well as to take Neither can possibly be- come so strong as to be fagrantly un- just without self injury.
 The working miners started out with the justice of the eight-hour contention conceded, most likely, by great ma jority of all classes of people. It is past belief that the employers would >eri- ously antagonize the workers on that point The question of the wage, how ever, is of different nature, and must be determined by that kind of selfish ness which is willing that each pIrty to the bargain should get some of tie profits.
 It is hoped there will be no serious friction over the matter-and ii dema- gogy can be kept out there is no appa- rent cause to expect any.

 Here it is the miners pick. What would the country amount to if it were not for the man who uses it? asks our never-dying logician. Truly but little. But, then, the pick had to be made before it could be used therefore a real smart demagogue might twist his weaker brothers logic so that there would appear to be one man superior to it's wielder-the man who created it.
 And so it goes The miners pick is an honorable implement, but no more so than the woodman's ax or the log gers peevy. If the biggest mine operator in the country knew it would be greatly to his interest to do so he would quit mining and go to fishing for dog salmon The demagogue's weak point is in play ing the calling to honor the man in- stead of the man to honor the calling

THE DEMAGOGUE'S WEAK POINT.

There is one particular type of dema- goguc that is bound to live forever. It flourishes in the tropics and in the arctic and in all the intermediate climcs. and wherever profitable and honorable labor thrusts its hands there it Is also.
 In certain parts uf Missouri this parlic- ular type of the aforementioned genus,

MERRILL SAX TRIAL
PRESENTED BUT
JUDGMENT WITHHELD IN
oTTUMWA CASE.

Ottumwa, May 29.-The ]. II. Mer-
rill ct al VS.. J. b. Sax case, wnich has
been in progress in the district court
for the past ten days, was completed
yesterday afternoon as far as the ar
guments of the attorneys were con
cerned, but the judge has reserved his
decision in the matter until a later
date. The case is one which has Gre
ated considerable interest botn from
the legal points and for the amount OF
money involved. The trial grew out
of the sale of the former Ottumwa
Traction aid Light company, of which
company the principals on both sides
OF the case were stockholders. The
stock of the company was sold, the
deal being closed by J. B. Sax. In
the petition filed in the case, the re-
mainder of the stockholders accuse
Sax of having illegally received com
mission for the sale of the property,
in the sum of $3.50, which was not
divided among the remainder of the
stockholders, as they claim it should
have been. The defendant claims That
he was the agent of the purchasing
company and received the money as a
commission for mis- services in closing
the deal. The plaintiffs, however,
claim that he was acting only as one
of the stockholders and that eacn one
was bound by the terms of the partner
ship to act for the company without
compensation. OF the sum received
as fee by Sax, $2,5OO is alleged to
have been given to Major Samuel Ma
non, which Sax claims was for ser
vices rendered in assisting him to
close up the deal.
The arguments of the attorneys for
both sides were lengthy and exhaust
i've and covered the case in detail
from beginning to end.

heard Tuesday before Special Commis-
sioner Allen in the antitrust suit insti-
tuted by Circuit Attorney Sager in be-
half of the state against the alleged
ice trust, in which the Polar Wave Ice
and Fuel company is respondent. G.
w. Whitelaw said he was the prime
mover in the consolidation of the
seven constituent companies which
formed the Polar Wave company.
After considerable argument between
counsel Whitelaw finally testified that
he had received 162.04 shares in the
newly formed company.
Through quo warranto proceedings
Circuit Attorney Sager is attacking the
legality of the merger and attempting
to bring about the forfeiture of the

oCTlDpS-NlCINdC ACACEA
Des Moines, May 2s.-Announcement
mas been authorized that Governor
Cummins will be candidate for Sen
lator Allison's place next year, a1d will
make hard fight to oust the vener
able statesman from the place he has
filed with honor and distinction for
many years. 1t has been understood
for some time that the governor would
like to wear the toga, but he did not
like to make an open fight on Ali
son.
The primary bill passed by the re-
cent legislature has given the COVER
nor the opportunity he has long de-
sired. 1t makes the race more Of
free for all fight, and the governor
can make as strenuous a campaign as
he pleases for the place and can pose
as friend of Allison all the while.
Senator Allison's sixth term expires
in March, 1909. He will then have
served the state as senator since
March 4, 1873, or thirty-six years. He
had served in the national mouse dur
ing four preceding sessions, so that
he has been member of congress
from Iowa for forty-four years. He
was born March 2, 1929, and his sixth
term as United States senator will ex-
pire the day he celebrates his eighth
eth birthday. His record has Deen un-
equalled in the history of the United
States.
Governor Cummins was candidate
for the senate before the Legislature
of 1900 John Henry Gear was re-
elected. After his death Secretary of
the Treasury Shaw, then governor, APP
pointed Senator Dolliver, then con-
gressman, to succeed him. In a
speech at Indianola last year Mr.Shaw
said, in substance. that he had first
offered tne position to J. w. Blythe.

Washington, May 29.-Remarkably
unreasonable weather with cold
wave extending throughout the coun-
try east of the Rocky mountains, ther-
mometers in some sections registering
the lowest temperatures for the sea-
son in many years, is reported by the
weather bureau. Tuesday night the
bureau issued the following special
forecast:
Frost warnings have been issued
for the middle Atlantic states and the
eastern lower lake region, western
Colorado, east Wyoming, Utah and
| northern Arizona, and warnings of
freezing temperature for western Wyo-
ming"
Added to this, flood warnings have
been issued for the lower Rio Grande
river valley and supplementary warn
ings for the Red river valley in south.
west Arkansas.
No Prospect of Warm Weather.
Weather bureau officials say that
| there is no immediate prospect of any
summer weather anywhere The pres
ent cold wave, they add, has been run
ming through most of the present
month. Heavy frosts are reported to
the bureau from Michigan and other
states of the lake region. The cold
wave is particularly severe in the
southwest, and due, according to the
weather experts, to the heavy rains in
that part of the country. Forecaster
Harry C. Frankenfield of the weather
| bureau said:
| "The reason for the cold weather we
have had during the past two or three
months is that the high areas of pres
sure have moved eastward from the
northern portion of the country almost
continuously and these have caused
| cold north winds. That Is the only
reason can give for the cold weather
areas. As to what makes these high
areas keep up all this season is more
than can tell"
| Not since 1882 has the abnormal
weather been approached in this part of
the country 1t is five degrees below
the normal temperature for this
month. A temperature of A degrees
was recorded at the weather bureau
early Tuesday and SO degrees at eight
o'clock at night
