the sentiment of the country in regard
10 presidential preferences. In the opin-
ion of that paper, the masses Of the
people are strong in their allegiance 10

'The South though solidly Demo-
cratic, has a warmer spot In its heart
for Roosevelt than any other President
save Mckinley.
New York, the Presidents own
state, has many selfish interests that
are solidly and hostllcy arrayed against
him. but people thoroughly familiar
with conditions there insist that, "

state by larger majority than no did

The question whether President
Roosevelt could be induced TO accept

considerable portion Of the peoples
money had to be emptled into the pock-
cts OF partisans, IL the party were to
continue In power, WAS the first ara
perhaps only consideration.
The lack OF public spirit was abnnd-
antly proved during the struggle of a
former city Council to obtain a large
water supply for the City, matter OF
vital Importance. All the efforts of the
Council were furlously fought, for no
other reason than to secure delay and
prevent the City from entering into
contracts and push the work. Why did
the bosses of the present administra-
ton oppose public improvements until
their friends should have n secure hold
OF the purss-strngs? Why did they
add In the nelghborhood of 100000 to
the cost of the conduit--an additionai
expenditure that has been declared un-
necessary? Why are they now lying 10

There is clash of authority in
North Carolina between federal and
a state court overt the enforcement of
the states new law fixing the railroad
rate for passengers. The whole issue
win be settled through the courts, but
there seems to be strong disposition
on the part of some federal judges
to assume that all state legislation
touching railroads is Illegal and that
the contention of the roads is right.
and their prayers for restraining or
ders should be granted. 1t would do
much to mend matters to assume that
state as well as federal laws are con-
stitutional until held otherwise by the
courts. An ex parte assertion should
not have tho weight of a judicial
determination.

CROW INDIANS CHARGE FRAUD
CLAIM THEY HAVE BEEN De.
FRAUpED OF 100000 ~
LAND GRAeeERs.

Billings, Mint, June 1.-THE Crow
Indians, who for years have occupied
rich lands in the Big Horn basin set
apart for them by the government,
have asked an investigation of charges
they make that they have been de,
frauded out of 100000 by land
grabbers. For the purpose of investi.
eating, Secretary Garfield sent his
own private secretay, Mr.. Dallsey,
who has been on the ground now for
two weeks.
The investigation is said to have re-
vealed an interesting condition of af-
fairs on the reservation. Secretary
Dallsey gave the Indians a hearing,
the tribe being represented by Helena
Grey, who recently went to Washing
ton to lay the matter before the presi.
dent.
Mrs. Grey makes several charges
against the agents and others, who,
she alleged, have defrauded the In.
dians Of their lands.
Muskogee. I. T., June 10.-A new
territory scandal is on the tapis and
will develop next week, when, it is
stated. suits charging land frauds will
be filed here by an agent of the int,

prominent in the politics of the two
territories.

Was Hired for Bloody Work.

Boise, Idaho, June ALFRED Hors-
ley, alias Harry Orchard, the actual as
sassin of Frank Steunenberg, went on
the stand yesterday as witness
against William d. Haywood and con-
fessed long chain of brutal, revolving
crimes, done, he said, at the instiga-
ton and for the pay of the leaders of
the Western Federation of Miners.
Orchard confessed that as member
of the mob that wrecked the Bunker
Hill and Sullivan mill in the Occur
d'Alenes he lighted one of the fuses
that carried fire to the explosion;
confessed that he
Set the Death Trap
in the Vindicator mine at Cripple
Creek that blew out the lives of Supt.

fessed that because he had not been
paid for his first attempt at violence
in the Vindicator mine he had been
treacherous to his associates by warn
ing the managers OF the Florence &
Cripple Greek railway that there was
a plot to blow up their trains; con-
fessed that he fired three charges OF
buckshot into the body of Detective
Lyle Gregory of Denver, killing him
instantly: confessed that for days he
stalked Gov. PEABODY about Denver,
waiting a chance to kill him; confess
ed that he and Steve Adams set and
Discharged the Mine

QUESTION OF LAW is RAISED.
Circuit Court Of Appeals Hears Arsu.
ments in Rebate Case.


ST. Paul, June 9.-Argument was be-
gun yesterday in the United States cir
cult court of appeals, Judges Van De-
vanter, Adams and Riner sitting, on
the writ of error sued out by the
Great Northern Railway company, fol-
lowing convictice early last April of
violation of the Elkins law by the
granting of rebates. The trial of the
case was had in the district court at
Minneapolis, Judge Page Morris sit
ting, and the railroad company was
fined $4,000.
This hearing is of Importance be,
cause on its final determination hinges
the question whether the railroads can
be prosecuted for violations of the
Elkins act, such violations having been
committed prior to the enactment of
the Hepburn act in 1906, and no prose
cution having been started until after
the Hepburn act went into effect. At
tend that the Hepburn act gives all
railroads a clean bill of health, so far
as rebates are concerned, up to the
time that act went into effect, except
as to causes which were pending in
courts of the United States at the time
the Hepburn act went into effect on
June 20, 1906.
The contention of the government is
that the conviction of the Great North
ern was secured on the theory that
the Hepburn act was not intended to
and does not remit offenses committed
prior to it's enactment.

Tells of stuenenberq Murder.

Boise, Idaho, June 8. - Harry Or
chard crowned his admissions of grave
crimes yesterday when continuing his
case against William D. Haywood he
made an explicitly detailed confession
of the murder of Frank Steunenberg
by an internal machine. This confess
sion opens the way for his own convic-
ton and execution for the offense. He
swore that the assassination of Steu-
nenberg was first suggested by Hay
wood, was Jointly plotted by Haywood,
Meyer, Pettibone and himself, was
financed by Haywood and was exc
cuted by himself after the failure of an
attempt in which Jack Simpl1ins had
participated.
Victims Number Eighteen.
Orchard increased the total of his
own murdered victims to eighteen, de-
tailed the circumstances under which
he tried to murder Former Governor
Peabody, Judge Goddard, Judge Cab
bert, Gen. Sherman Bell, Dave Moffat
and Frank Herne. Incidentally he
confessed to plot to kidnap the child
of one of his former associates. Then
under cross-examination by the de-
tense Orchard confessed to the guilt
of sordid social crimes, of deserving
his young child and wife in Ontario,
fleeing TO British Columbia with Hat
tie Simpson, the wife of another man.
and committing bigamy by marrying a
third woman at Cripple Creek.
