Hall-WoodruH Loses.
 New York, Sept 25.-After the hard est fought and bitterest contest foi control of Tammany Hall in many years the primaries left the lineup of district leaders as between Charles + Murphy and Mayor Mcclellan practi cally unchanged,
 The result of the battle is subStan tiaIly a draw. Boss Murphy's power remains unshaken, but at the same time he met with signal and humili ating defeat in his attempt to force Maurice Featherson and Francis J Lantry, the two leading Mcclellan leaders, out of the Tammany executive committee.
 State Chairman Timothy l.. Wood ruff's influence as political leader was reduced to zero by his defeat al the hands of the supporters of Gov ernor Charles E.. Hughes in the only two assembly district contests in the Republican primaries in Kings county

FLAGLER IS BADLY NEEDED.
Wanted In Oil Trust Hearing In Con-
 nection With Missinq Books.

hSSAiob FSieti HiiSoihS SS0NSs
 New York, Sept 25.-Following a sharp dispute between Frank B. Kel- logg, the governments counsel in its suit to dissolve the Standard Oil com. pany, and John G. Milburn, counsel for the Standard company, it became ap- parent that MT. Milburn is trying to force MT. Kellogg to subpoena Henry M. Flagler as a witness. The lever that is apparently being used to force such move is the two missing stock transfer books, which are badly want ed by MT. Kellogg and which the Standard officials say have disappear ed from the vault in Room 14O1 of the Standard Oil building, where they were put when the old board of liquidation trustees went out of office.
 From the examination or Wesley H. Tilford, treasurer of the Standard Oil company, at the hearing before ex- Judge Franklin Ferriss in the govern fent suit to dissolve the trust three sensational facts were spread upon the record:
 First.-The Standard oil Trust of Ohio when ordered by the supreme court in 1892 to wind up its affairs and dissolve continued its monopolistic combination without change in man agement or methods, with the same officers, the same stock owners and the same control of supply, transportation and price of oil for seven years, until 1899.
 Second.-The mandate of the su- preme court of Texas debarring the Standard Oil combination from engag- ing in business there has been defed by the operations of the Corsicana Re fning, company, owned by H. c. Fol ger and c. N. Payne of 26 Broadway, and the Security Oil company, said to be controlled by the Standards origi. nal financial institution, the Seaboard National bank of IS Broadway.
 Third.-John D. Rockefeller's income during the eight years when, as he and his friends have said so often, he never visited 26 Broadway, was $21.2J per minute from oil alone.

Wu Ting Fang to Return to Us.

Picking, Sept. 25.-The reappointment of Wu Ting Fang to his former post as minister of China at Washington has been gazetted. After leaving Wash ington MT. Wu held the lowest minis terial post In the foreign office and was subsequently transferred to subordi nate post in the board of punishments where he brought about revision of the penal code and some civil codes and framed regulations governing linn ited liability companies. The foreign office does not appear to have taken advantage of the experience of MT Wu except during the boycott of Amer, ican goods. After the question of a revision of the Chinese exclusion law was dropped he was relegated to an inferior post and then retired

Editor Tribune: AS there

owners on section lines and in
order to make this matter Of roads

any misunderstanding in relation
thereto, I desire to publish the
opinion of the states attorney in
reference to same and ask you to
publish this, in order that the
landowner may understand the
circumstances as they exist.

unless same is designated or

The Washburn leader. [volume] (Washburn, McLean County, N.D.) 1890-1986, 1907-06-21

held that the act of congress of
July 26, 1866, granting the right
Of way for the construction of
highways over public lands not
reserved for public uses con-
stituted an unconditional convey
ance of an infesable interest to the
public; and every right or interest
subsequently acquired under the
general land laws has been taken
subject thereto
You will readily see that the
settler is not entitled to any COM
pensation for the highway on the
section line, as provided by law,
unless he entered the land prior
to the date of the act of congress
as above indicated.
Yours truly,

TIGHT LID FOR
MCLEAN COUNTY
Attorney Nuessle Says Prohibition
Law Shall Be Enforced In
This County.

The states attorney Of Mclean
county will see that the prohibition
law is enforced. In a letter ffbm
Mr.. Nuessle to the Leader he says:
Herewith 1 beg to enclose you
copy of the letter received by me
from the Hon. T. F. McCue, At
torney General, relative to the
enforcement Of the prohibition law.
I need only say that SO far as this
office is concerned the law will be
enforced. The letter from At
torney General McCue is as follows
and shows that the county officer
will be backed up by the state.
''rhe recent decision of our
Supreme Court declaring the law
establishing the Temperance Com
missioner unconstitutional may
lead in some quarters to the con-
clusion that our Prohibition Law
will not be as effectively enforced.
Fearing that this conclusion
may be arrived at in certain
quarters I desire to make state
ment so that the policies of this
Office may be thoroughly under
stood. The Temperance Commissi-
oner, no doubt, would have saved
you and this Office a great deal Of
work, but / believe the law is
ample to enable the officers to
effectively enforce the Prohibition
Law.
What I say here, no doubt, is
unnecessary as far as your county
is concerned, because [ am we'll
aware that you have been per-
forming your duty, but [ am
sending this letter to the States
Attorneys so that there may be no
misunderstanding as to my position
upon the question Of the enforce
ment of this law.
I therefore desire that you rigidly
enforce the law in your county,
instruct your Sheriff and Peace
officer as to their duties, and COM
pei them to be vigilant and see
that this law is enforced, and
whenever it becomes necessary to
have assistance from this Office it
will be cheerfully given.
I think that if you impress upon
the people who are inclined to
comply with law and order the
fact that the duties Of our Office
require you to enforce it in good
faith, this class Of citizens will
desist from violating the law
while those who do not take this
advice and insist upon dealing in
the illegal traffic of intoxicating
liquors, contrary to law, will have
to suffer the consequences Of their
illegal acts.
Yours truly,
T. F. McCue, Attorney General. y
