BOGUS MONEY
 FLOODS OREGON
Spurious Gold and Silver Coins Circulated Freely Among
 Banks.

PORTLAND, Ore. May 22-Ten thousand dollars in spurious five dol lar gold pieces, and more than two thousand counterfeit silver dollars in the possession of United States At torney Bristol, is considered conclu- sive evidence of the operations of a gang of professional counterfeiters in Eastern Oregon, where the imitation money was seized.
 The governments prosecutor has been Investigating the case for several days and is satisfied the bogus money is being coined by gang that carries on its work in eastern section of the state. ......
 Learning that a great deal of coun- terfeit money was being circulated in Eastern Oregon, Mir. Bristol has visit ed a number of the towns in that sec tion of the state, where he found con- ditfons worse than had been repre- sented.
 The bogus coins of both denomina- tions are exceptionally good limitations and so closely do they resemble the genuine that they have been readily passed. In one eastern Oregon bank alone MT. Bristol discovered S7S0 of the worthless coin which had been re- ceived on deposit by the bank of ficials.
 The dollars are especially clever limitations of Uncle Sam's product and would pass the inspection of the aver age bank clerk. Spurious five dollar pieces are not so perfect. being slight ly of color They bear the date, 1903, and were made from copper and brass and washed with gold.

BRIBERY oe INDIANS CHARGED
Millionaire oil Man to Be Rrraigned
 for Alleged Big Conspiracy.

PEWNEE. okla, May 22-John s. Glenn, a millionaire oil operator of Buffalo, N. Y. will be arraigned here Tuesday to plead to an indictment found by the federal grand jury in Pawnee county, charging him with bribery and conspiracy in his efforts to lease 300,00O acres of oil lands in the Osage Indian reservation in 1905.
 The indictment against Glenn sets forth that he agreed to furnish cer- tain citizens of the Osage nation S20,- 900 for obtaining the assistance of men whose influence would be useful in manipulating the Osage council. One Osage citizen threatened to block the plan by getting the lease himself. and Glenn is alleged to have agreed that this man should receive the S20.- GOO upon condition that he help Glenn.
 The indictment recites that be- tween S2,000 and S2.5OO, as an initial payment, was advanced by Gleen, of which the chief and the assistant chief of the Osages each got $500, while various sums were paid to other members of the Osage council. The Osage council awarded the papers to Washington, but Secretary Hitchcock declined to approve the lease.
 There is a grave legal question as to whether or not there is any law making it a criminal offense to bribe an Indian council

concerning marriages, laws relating to conveyance and inheritance of property, and hundreds of other things which belong, under the constitution, to the people of the states and which should be settled by the people of the states. The encroachment by the re- publican party upon the rights of the states is becoming so active and per nicious that the issue of state rights is bound to arise at the next election. Roosevelt cannot rest unless he is meddling with the affairs of the state and his federal machines are trying to dictate affairs in almost every state where there is republican majority. Step by step he is making precedents everywhere that will eventually jus tify gross usurpation of power by the i federal government, and the indica- tions are that by the time the cam paign rolls around the people of the United States will be presented with the issue of absolute obliteration of state lines and supreme control by the federal government of local af- fairs, of state autonomy and strict 1, construction of the constitution. The ! democratic party has always stood for state autonomy and the largest pos sible local government, but heretofore majority of the voters of the United States seem to have cared very little about state rights. This sentiment seems to have been encouraged by the result of the war and the passions aroused by the conflict, but now, when secession is dead, buried and forgotten, it is possible that the Amer. ican people will see the wisdom of maintaining their dual government as long as possible and that the issue may strengthen the democratic party.
 Anyway, it is almost sure to be an issue in the next campaign.
 Roosevelts friends continue to de- clare that the president has 10 idea of allowing his name to be used as a candidate for reelection in 1908. It is observable, however, throughout the country that the Rooseelt ma chimes are being kept in perfect work ing order.

FIXED" INSPECTOR.
Remarks of Woman Passenger From
 Paris, Leads to Seizure.

NEW YORK, May 22.-One of the most important customs seizures made in a long time in the port of New York was effected upon the ar rival of Provence of the French Line.
 Suspicion was aroused by the fact that nothing dutiable was declared when the customs officers boarded the ship. Mrs. Max Cohen had several trunks and her movements were close lv watched. Inspectors and a detec- tive followed her about the French Line pier, and when one of the two met her, she was overheard to say that an inspector had been fixed" |" and suspicion then gave way to cer- tainty.
 Search of her trunks revealed fifty Paris gowns, consigned to Hirsch & Cohen. The labers of the makers had been removed, but when the woman inspectors reached Mrs. Cohen they found on her labels which it believed were taken from the gowns
 When the facts were reported to Deputy Collector J. M. Bishop, in the barge office, he ordered that the goods be taken to the appraisers stores.
 There it was found that the trunks contained about fifty articles on which duty should have been paid. Mir Bishop will report the circumstances of the seizure to his superiors and an investigation will be made, which may result in a criminal prosecution against the inspector involved He is not of the regular force, but for four years has been employed, six months at a time, on temporary duty.

They never thought of his faithful horse Jim when they interrupted his masters daylight journey to the cranberry bogs. That's where tho highwayman made mistake

 Then the horse got busy. "Jim'' went up on his hind legs and shook off the two men that held him. Then he struck our fore and aft, starboard and port. He proved a good judge of distance, for two of the highwaymen went to the ground Jim executed a few jig steps on the chests of the prostrate robber< and then gathered up his skirts and started for the Grant homestead. By the time he ar rived there, his master, in the bot tom of the wagon, was unconscious.

CASE FROM GRAHAM
 LONG TIME IN COURT
Railroad Company Is Wearing Out Attorneys, Witnesses
 and Claimants.

At Central, Graham county, on the 1 line of the Gila Valley. Globe and Northern railroad, in the year 1895 a 1 boy named Notes, about thirteen years
 old. was struck by a trunk pitched
 from the baggage car of a train and
 was nearly killed One of his arms
 was broken and he was otherwise bad i ly bruised up.
 1 At the first term of the district court in Graham county after the ac-
 cident happened a suit appeared on ! the docket for damage to the boy, the l father instituting the suit. From that time to the present this case has been
 on the docket of either the district court or in the supreme court and pre-
 sumably if is in the higher court now, though there seems to be a lack of knowledge on this point by at least one Of the attorneys who has grown old since he first filed the suit orig
 inally The following letter received l by one of the supreme judges is worthy of publication here. as a gen teel roast of the courts delay:
 Hon. D. E. Murrer, Associate Justice.
 Dear Sir:
 On the determination of the case of "Jarndyce vs. Jarndyce," alias Notes
 vs. Railway company, kindly advise
 me of the result by your personal let ter. The vitality of this case is a reversal of the doctrine of the sur vival of the tittest It was before you under two commissions, and occupied the whole term of service of Justice Ruffer, and in it's life time the per sonnel of the supreme court has al
 most entirely changed. Some of the counsel engaged have died, and passed away, others emigrated or retired to obscurity; those surviving are in or approaching the decline of life. Wit nesses cognizant of the facts are dead, emigrated or in their dotage. But the plaintiff has survived the perils of
 childhood. has emancipated from tuta-
 lage of his parents, and is now in the
 full vigor of mature manhood, with the hope of an ultimate fortuIie arising to
 him out this case. The characteris- tics of immortality of a corporation has preserved the defendant The case
 is now fruitful source of revenue to
 court officials and of infinite vexation to the defendant, and its final deter
 imitation may become the heritage of
 the supreme court of the state of
 Arizona after it shall have acquired
 single statehood. Respectfully. R. E. MITTITUR.
