Governor HOCh Had No
Authority to In
tervene

Yesterday afternoon the United
States supreme court handed down a
decision holding that the goyeror Of
Kansas could not intervene in the
suit Of the Katy railroad for alternate
sections Of land within ten miles Of
Che right OF way thru the territory.
The railroad, therefore, if it continues
this suit, must bring action against
the individual allottees.
The road first started to do this,
and it is said that Judge Raymond
had already written an opinion ad-
verse to the railroads claim when the
matter was taken from before him.
the railroad having secured Governor
Hoch's assistance in taking the mat
ter before the supreme court on what
was thought to be a shortcut. Yes
terday's decision means however, that
the railroad must go thru the same
process any other litigant is compell-
ed to go thru,

ALL DRUNK WHEN
MAN WAS KILLED.
Tiff City, Missouri, Whisky the Cause
Of a Strange Killing Among Cayu-
ga Farmers Saturday Night

Deputy Marshal Lee Mechanism
came in last night with Oscar Hunt,
who is charged with the murder OF
Joe Wolfenberger near Cayuga Satur-
day night. Hunts preliminary hear
ing will be held at Alton on March IL.
He will probably spend the interim
in the jail here, though an effort to
have him released on bond may be
made.
The story Of the killing is a acompli-
Gated one. In company with several
other farmers, Hunt and Wolfenber-
ger went to Tiff City, Mo, Saturday
with loads Of corn. or course in Tiff
City they got drunk, and they started
home with several quarts in their
wagons. They drank heavily along
the road. One man, Sam Nuckolls,
was so dead drunk that he was tied in
the wagon and his team was allowed
to follow along behind the others.
In hollow near Cayuga, shortly
after O'Clock, the whole party eyi-
IDENTIFY stopt for final carouse. Peo-
pie living in the vicinity heard loud
shouts and then a shot or TWO. Not
long after that Hunt appeared at the
home Of Nuckolls, who is a cousin,
and told Mrs. Nuckolls that he be-
lieged he had killed Wolfenberger'
No investigation was made, however
and Hunt spent the night there.
The next morning about 8 o'clock a
naB named Alberty went to the hol- |
ow. He had heard the carousing the
light hefore, and hoped to tiEd some

been saying for a long time has been
demonstrated to the good people.
There is no panic. there Is no cessa-
ton of progress and prosperity. conf
dence, far from being shaken by the
New York furry, has been made
manifest and yet, We are doing bust
ness with cashiers checks, until gold
llmportations from Europe replenish
the channels of trade, and frightened
depositors in New York put their
money back.
Like a mobile army of willing
units, the currency goes in volume
west to move the grain crops; south
to move the cotton crops; with de-
ployed lines into Kentucky, Virginia
land Tennessee to buy the tobacco
and SO on, keeping local financiers
busy. preparing to meet these periodi-
cal drafts on resources.
Perhaps, 1t was a providential
thing this stringency occurred just
to warn the people to remedy the ex-
isting defects in our currency system
before it happens again some time
during an industrial depression.

FOR JEWS.
German Lloyd Company VIII Provid,
Kitchens.

Berlin, Nov. Efforts of the In
ternational Jewish Territorial organ
ization to obtain special kitchens and
other arrangements on the ocean
liners to America have resulted in
success.
The North German LLOYD company
has agreed TO provide accommoda-
lions particularly for the Jews, and a
meeting of the officers OF the steam
ship company and the Jewish associa-
ton was held today to perfect the
plan. The conference was attendea
by Israel Zangwill, president; Glenn
ent Salaman, honorary secretary of
the organization, and representatives
of the Bremen relief committee TO,
INDECENT Jews.
1t has been decided that hotel in
Berlin shall be placed exclusively for
the disposal of Jewish emigrants.
This hotel will contain, in addition
to kosher" kitchen, a prayer and a
reading room. The kitchen will be
under the supervision of the chief
rabbi and all Jewish emigrants will
take their meals in the hotel.
Special ritual kitchens will be in
stituted on the large transatlantic
liners running to New York and Bos-
ton, under the supervision OF the

BECKHAM. A sCAPEGoAT.

We'll along in the state campaign
The Sun observed that in the event
OF Hager's defeat, which seemed
probable, and the election OF a Dem
ocratic legislature, still more prob.
able, the gang might turn on Beck
ham and defeat him for United
States senator, Notwithstanding the
fact that he was nominated at the
state primary. Before the first shock
of the election news died out, there
were heard mutterings against Beck
ham. He is to be made the scapegoat
for the whole Ubiquitous machine, OF
which he was the better part Henry
Hines, Hager, Percy Haly, ct al, may
purge the party by throwing Beck
ham overheard and perpetuating
themselves in power. Governor Beck
ham was the only link between the
gang and respectability. There is nc
doubt, II the sentiment OF the party
will stand for II. the machinocrats
will double cross Beckham. They
have the Louisville Times. the Gin
cinnati Enquirer and the Courier
Journal in hearty sympathy with any
movement to assassinate Beckham,
and two months in which to create
the proper sentiment in the state.
Poor Democracy II she sends
Beckham to the senate. she will do 1,
grudgingly. II she rejects him she is
guilty of breach of promise.
Even popular primaries have their
drawbacks, haven't they?

According to William E. Curtis, in
the Chicago Record-Herald, the ex.
traordinary high prices, which we
must pay for necessities, obtain IN
Europes where cheap labor also is an
economical factor to be considered.
So our brethren Of the minority, who
pointed to the cheapness of living
under free trade in Europe, and were
blind to the low wage scales, have
another prop knocked from under
their argument.

been decided at a White House cor
