ROAD MAY STAND SUIT.
This the Likely Action Over Railroad
 Demurrage.

The statement is now issued that the New Haven road will probably have to stand suit in the courts by connecting railroads on the question of compen- sation for freight car demurrage. This Is expected to be the action adopted instead of an attempt to coerce Presl- dent Mellen by caneellihg through tar- if as was done five years ago.
 This is an important decision and will be a relief to shippers who feared an open breach which would affect de- liveries. Officials of the New Haven road have concluded that they will have to go to court over the demurrage charges as the negotiations now stand deadlocked.
 The roads connecting will claim com- pensation for detained cans on a basis of earning power of the cars.

RErpY IN SERIOUS STATE.
Derby Man Has Clot of Blood on the
 Brain.

It has developed that the injury from which James Reidy, the Derby man who was assaulted by roughs on the evening of July B. is suffering is a clot of blood which has formed on the brain. Dr. F. P. Budd, who is at- tending Reidy, states that his condi- tion is very serious, the brain being dangerously affected. Reidy is troubled with illusions, the result of the mental derangenent.
 It is thought that an operation may be necessary, but this will not be per formed for some time. At present att tempts are being made to absorb the clot, thus avoiding the danger of an operation. If this cannot be accom- plished the operation will probably be necessary.

LEST WE FORGET

The Star editor seems to take great
pride in declaring that all temperance
legislation in Ohio sprang from the
Republican party. He forgets that
the temperance cause made gredter
strides as result Of the Pattleon
than 1t ever made befdke.
He forgets George b. Cox, of Mecca
saloon fame, when he makes this .as-
sertion. He forgets that George B.
Cox was in the saddle In Ohio While
he (Harding) was in, the state sen-
ate and later in the lieutenant sov,
ernor's chair, or in other words SwkSn
he used to be In politics. He knew
that Cox was. boss then though. ond

reasonable. there can be no doubt
that the eleqt,pn in Marion county

not Marion county people are willing
to lend hand toward the election Of
Senator Foraker to the United States
senate. Mr.. Dcnithen IS a Foraker
man and his election means vote for
Foraker.
The declaration Of Mr.. Donithen
that he is in favor OF electing Unit
ed States senator's by popular vote,
can be taken a. an indication thai
the plan is to elect Senator Foraker.

in making the declaration, since It

er's case. It-FUruker is elected at
the coming session of the legislature,
Inc will have taken, his seat before

and then 1t will not concern him
in the least.
But supposing It is not definitely
settled that the next general as

knows Foraker, knows that with the
present fight on his hands, he will
take any kind OF a chance II his
forces are In control of the next leg

near to certainty as can be reached

TOWNSHIP TICKET
SMOKED OUT

Hoke w. Donithen. the nominee
Of the Foraker faction in the Re-
publican party, has declared in ia
vor of the county local option bill
which 1t is supposed will be present
ed to the general assembly which
will meet in Columbus in Janu-
ary. The local Foraker organ has
changed its prognosls and now as
serts that the fight is between Doni-
then and Smith and has informed
Rev. c. W. Hensel that he has no
business on the ticket and that IL
he is half man he will step
down and out and go to Logging for
Donithen. These are the develop
ments in the local political situation
for Friday.
The move upon the part of Doni-
then was not unexpected. Those
who have been keeping in touch
with the political situation have
-.been expecting this very thing for
more than week. There was rea-
son for the move and reason for
those who knew, expecting 1t. The
organ of Mr.. Donithen's political
party. and to be more specific, the

which he represents, time and again

ing for an opportunity to declare
for county local option, and lo,there
was none. His heart has been bur
denedyfor weeks, like lump of
lead this declaration has been
weighing upon him. Like the pal
sled man, he lay at the brink Of
the pool of healing and there was
none to put him in. vainly has he
sought to unburden his heart. but
none would give him ear, until the
good Samaritan in the person of
the editor Of the LaRue News came
along and gave him opportunity to
declare himself.
This change of front upon the
part of Mr.. Donithen is not more
interesting than the About! Face!
upon the part of the Foraker or
gan. Only a few evenings ago the
editor of that paper, commended
Mr.. Donithen's refusal to pledge
himself, stating that he was right
in desiring to be on the ground
and mingle with other members of
the legislature before determining
how he should vote. In speaking
last night of this new child which
Mr.. Donithen has adopted 1t says:

FORAKER Is TRYING
TO STEAL A MARCH

The belief that the legislature
which assemblies on the first Monday
OF next January Is the only one which
can legally elect successor for
Senator Foraker, is becoming quite
widespread, not only in Marion coun-
ty but throughout the entire state.
Prominent and able men are arrayed
on both sides of the question, some
contending that an extra session must
be called prior to March 4th, 1909.
for the purpose of making the selec-
tion and Others holding that the ex-
ira session cannot. under the law.
eject a senator. AS stated before,
able men are arrayed against each
|other, but none are more able and
competent than Judge George B
Okey. one of Ohio's recognized most
able jurists.
Judge okey's contention as stated
by the Ohio State Journal is that the
|state constitution requires the legis-
,lature' to meet In regular session the
first Monday in January Of each ev-
en- numbered year. That would shut
tout the adjourned session. On the
same hypothesis Judge Okey Is posi-
tive that the next legislature, to be
elected on the presidential ticket
In 1905 cannot meet. unless called
in special session. until January. 1910.
That would require the present leg

and the opinion Is backed by one

ton whether the coming general as

of the opinion that the United

Railroad Engines In Hard Luck this Week
One Serious Wreck American Falls and Several Other Acct
dents Elsewhere that Lay Them Up for Repairs

A regiment of dynamiters could hard

more effectually than they have been
crippled this week by regular accidents.
The first of the series was at Amer

freight crashed into the rear of the
Twin Falls branch ''Ping Pong" train.
A Jap was killed, a pIasterer who had
been working on the Minidoka tract but
was on his way for visit to Salt Lake
was crushed so that he died, and an
other man injured. Traffic was delay
ed for some hours, several cars being
wrecked so as to obstruct the main
track.
Another wreck occurred next morn
