GOVERNMENTS SIDE OF CASE.
Prosecution Reveals Its Charges
Against Senator Borah of Idaho.

Boise, Idaho.-The government has
revealed it's charges in the case of
United States Senator Borah, charged
with timber land fraud. The jury was
completed at the morning session on
Tuesday, and during the afternoon
Judge M. G. Burch of Detroit, Mich,
special assistant to the attorney gen.
eral, made the opening statement of
the prosecution. He arraigned the
late Governor Frank Steunenberg as
the central figure in the alleged con-
spiracy by which it is claimed that
more than 1900 acres of virgin for
est lands, thick with towering pines,
came fraudulently into the possession
of the Barber Lumber company, a
Wisconsin corporation operating a
plant in this city.
Mr. Burch connected Senator Borah
with the land transactions only as at
torney, first for Steunenberg, and then
for the lumber concern. He declared
that Senator Borah interested himself
in all matters having an outward bear
ing on the lands claimed by dummy"
entrymen, turned over to dummy
trustees and by them decided over to
the Barber company.

About by Hand of Fate.

A farmerish-looking man shared my
seat on the train as | was travelling
through Indiana, land after we had
heen talking for a couple of hours a
very communicating woman got on at
station. / saw the man look very
hard at her, and directly after she had
taken seat he rose up and said:
Excuse me, stranger, but l think |
used to know that woman, and I'll go
over and see her."
He was gone about an hour, and
had forgotten all about him when he
returned to say:
"Yes, ! knew her. Durn my cats if
it didn't turn out to be my first wife!"
1T did?"
"Sure's you live. We was divorced
leyen years ago, and since then I've
been married twice and lost both
women by death. l surely believe the
hand of Providence is in it,"
For just what reason?"
"Why, I've got nine children that

GRADES OF RANK IN JAPAN.
Society There Is Divided Into Many
Separate Classes.

A traveller just returned from Japan
tells some things which perhaps all
the world does not know. Says he:
OF rank there are eight classes after
the mikado and the ZiogoOn, namely
Cd the princes; GU the mobiles who
owe feudal service to the prince, or
the empire; (3) the priests; (4) the
soldiers. These four form the higher
orders and enjoy the privilege OF
wearing two swords and petticoat
trousers; (5) inferior officials and doc
tors, called respectable, allowed to
wear one sword, with the trousers;
co merchants and tradesmen, whose
legs may not pollute the trousers,
though by entering as domestics to a
man of rank they may enjoy the privi-
lege Of wearing one sword; these are
the only people by whom wealth can
be accumulated CD artists, artisans
and petty shop-keepers; (S) day labor
ers and peasants. Tradesmen who
work on leather tanners, etc., are ex-
cluded from classification. They are
defiled, and may not even live with
other men, they live in villages OF
their own.

Inquiry for good cattle was strong last

Bullet Ends Fierce Encounter in the Grand
Junction Depot Yards Between Officer
and a Well Known Negro
THE LATTER IS SHOT DOWN

Grand Junction. Colo, Oct. 1O.-A
tragedy occurred in the depot yards
here last night. Wade Johnson, a ne
gro % years of age, was shot through
the heart by Depot Officer Frank Ma
haney. Mahaney surrendered and was
locked up in the county Jail. Johnson
was seen to make run for the pas,
senger train but Mahaney started af-
ter him. The colored man paid no heed
to the command of the officer, who
started after him as the train was
then moving out of the yards. Maha
ney is said to have jumped aboard
the blind baggage and pulled the ne
gro off and then the latter put up a
terrific fight. The gravel roadbed for
many feet around the spot where the
men alighted showed signs of hard
scutile. 1t is believed that the negro,
angered by the action of Mahaney in
pulling him off the train, drew a re
volver, but before he could get this in
action the officer jerked out his weapon
and, pressing it against the colored
mans head, fred once and then sent
two more bullets into the mans body.

COUNTY BOARD
LOCATES ROAD
This Will Be Good News to
People of Silt and That
Part Of County
ADJOURNED WEDNESDAY

After busy three days session the
board of county commissioners ad
journed Wednesday afternoon and bust
ness of the utmost Importance to a
large number of residents of the coun-
ty was transacted The necessity for
the construction of a road to connect
with the bridge which will be built by
the state at the ferry site at Silt was
apparent and the commissioners gave
considerable attention to it. The road
will extend from the new bridge across
Henry Halsey and Robert Ferguson
to the railway tracks, thence west on
the south side of the railway tracks
to Silt; also from the point where this
road will intersect the railway, north
to the county road. This road will be
built for the purpose of avoiding the
maintenance of that along the bank
of the Grand from the bridge to Hal.
sey's. Captain C. NJ. While and Ed
Connors. who are interested in the
road, attended meetings of the board,
as did Messrs. DeRemer, Halsey and
Rehme. Representative Napier, who
secured the appropriation from the leg
islature for the construction of the
bridge, also took a deep interest in
the proceedings.
The board approved the bond of Jus
tice of the Peace James Duce of Pre-
cinct 10 New Castle). The contract
for repairing the state bridge was or

MORE PRAISE FOR

WORK FOR ALL
ABLE-BoDIED MEN.

Denver, Colo, Oct l0-No man need
be ont of work in Colorado, if figures
from the office of the state labor com
missioner, Alex Swanson, are indica-
tive of what is being done in the
state and the general prosperity. Never
in years, according to the labor com
missioner, has there been such dcarth
of labor in Colorado as at this time,
and conditions are growing worse con
tinually.
The big power companies throug ghout
the state are all in need of men, and
applications for more men have been
pouring into the Office of the labor com
missioner in such amounts that he can
do no more than tell everybody he
knows about it.
The greatest demands come from the
coal, power and beet concerns. The
beet sugar companies of the northern
part of the state want 300 men immedi-
ately. This in spite of the fact that
during the last year so many Mexicans
nave been shipped in from the South
that Colorado may soon hear as much
of the soft southern accent as New
Mexico.
The Northern Colorado Coal company
also wants far more men than it can
get and as a result the output of its
mines is crippled. In the South, around
Silverton and Telluride. miners are
precedented condition. These districts
have always been well supplied here
tofore.
The Central Colorado Power comapny
has been doing much work of late and
establishing new camps, but it has the
same difficulty getting men. Coming
nearer home, the Argo smeter cannot
get enough men to operate at its full
capacity, and men in Denver who can
not find work would have a short dis
tance only to go to get it.
Not only in agricultural, construe.
tion and mining lines is labor scarce,
but even in the realm of the intellect,
lack of numbers is being felt. Not
that theer are not enough smart peo-
pie in Colorado, but the poulation is
growing so rapidly in the rural dis
tricts as result of the immigration,
that there are not enough smart peo-
and mining sections cannot get enough
teachers to instruct their children.
Miss Katherine Craig, state superin-
tendent of public instruction, has had
application from more districts in the
country for teachers this year than
ever before. The salaries run from
$40 to $50, the best that have ever
been offered in rural districts,

CUBS ARE Winners
OF SECOND GAME

Chicago, Oct. 10.-Chicago won a
brilliant victory over the Detroit base
ball team by score of 3 to l in a
game that abounded with sensational
fielding yesterday. The game, the see
ond in the worlds championship Sc
ries, reached a climax in a pitchers
duel between Pfeister, south paw and
Mullin. The game was won and lost
within the first four innings when Mul-
Inns wildness and terrific hitting by
the Cubs drove three men over the
plate.
Detroit scored its lone run within
the same period. The game was played
before a crowd which neared the rec.
ord attendance of the world. After
the fourth inning the game was thrown
into the pitchers hands. Pfeister, al
though hit for ten safe ones, pitched a
great game. He was very effective in
pinchcs. Chicago secured nine runs off
Mullin and the Cubs ran bases at will.
Shecknard s fielding was sensational
and Rossman took the batting honors
by getting three hits, one of them be
ing a triple, and securing Detroit IS
only run.
The official attendance was 2l,901,
which was 2,476 short of yesterday IS
attendance, but established new rec.
ord in the West.

CLONE is the sailor, home from the

back each have their buck, and the ma
jority of them do not favor the killing

Martin Mazzucci, restaurateur, ac
companied by John Anderson and two
other men, came back last night. They
had four fine bucks, one for each man
all the law allows-and each was a
fine specimen. Jack Teeters and wife
and Grant Teetcrs, all of Cardiff,
passed through Glenwood this morning
bound for their home. They had been
out about two weeks and were plenti

the appearance of their wagon.

fish they wanted, and the day before
the deer season opened they saw about
forty bucks, but did not shoot. Each
man brought back buck, but none
killed doe or fawn. Their horses are

them suffering from sore back. When
