The chancery docket was next looked
over but there was not much doing in
chancery matters and after a session of
nearly two hours a recess was taken for
dinner.
When the court re-convened at 2
o'clock the petit jurors were called and
sworn, every man on the panel answer
ing to his name. Judge Taylor gave
! them the customary instructions in re-
gard to their duties and they were later
excused until Wednesday morning
The remainder of the afternoon session
was taken up with arguments on motions
for continuance of cases filed in the fore
noon and at 3 AS o'clock the court ad-
journed for the day, with the prospect
for a long term ahead.
There were only two brief sessions of

each session was taken up with hearings
on motions for continuance in a numb Der
of cases. The afternoon session was
closed at 2:45, with the case of George l..
Beeman vs. Clinton w. Tisdale, appellant
first for trial. This case was started
Thursday morning and jury was
promptly secured. The plaintiff sues
for $3.50 for injuries to his horse which
happened in the defendants stable at
East Middlebury late in August of last
! year, the horse dying within about a
week. The horse was put up there for
the night and was so badly injured in a
stall by the kicking of another horse that
it died as stated above. The case was on
trial all day Thursday and will probably
be completed today. James B. Dono
way of Middlebu.y is counsel for the
plaintiff and Ira H. LaFleur of Middle
bury is representing the interests of the
defendant.
The large number of criminal case:
set on the old docket together with the
new ones originating since the December
term will come up at the close of the
term. OF the new cases there are five
respondents in the county Jail without
bail. Two of these cases are for adul
terry, with more arrests probably to fol
low, two are for grand larceny and the
other is for breach of the peace.

Columbus, o., Aug. 20, William
Howard Taft secretary Of the war
department, made what he was pleas
ed to term his political confession of
faith" at the memorial hall last night.
The auditorium, which has seat
ing capacity of over 5000. was packed
to the doors and several thousand peo-
pie who came to hear the secretary
speak were unable to gain admittance.
The secretary spoke under the aus
pices of the Buckeye Republican club,
md the address was notable from the
fact that it is regarded as the platform
upon which he will make his campaign
for the republican nomination for
president Some of the salient points
in his address were: aAb laf@,
In spite of the general comfort there
have been made manifest by signs not
to be misunderstood, quickening of
the public conscience and demand
for the remedy of abuses, the out
growth of this prosperity, and for a
higher standard of business integrity.
Experience has shown that the rail-
roads cannot be trusted to deal fairly
in matters of transportation between
themselves and their competitors In
an outside business. H#.
at is well understood that the Ell
kins bill was passed without oppost
ton by, and with the full consent OF,
the railroads and the chief reason for
this was the elimination of the peniten-
tiary penalty for unjust discrimination.
1.-THE Imprisonment OF two or three
prominent officers of railway COM
pany, or a trust, engaged in giving or
receiving secret rebates. would have
greater deterrent effect for the flu
ture than millions in fine. JA
THE combination of capital in
large plants to manufacture goods
with the greatest economy Is just as
necessary as the assembling of the
parts of machine to the economical
and more rapid manufacture of what
in old times was made by hand The
government should not interfere with
the one any more than the other.
Great enterprises organized and
managed by men OF transcendant abil-
ity should result in great profit to
them.
The railways can blame no one but
themselves II the revelation of their
fragrant violations of law and of their
unjust administration of a public trust
have led to an outburst of popular in
dignation and have brought on tenn
porary excess. ..s".
Whenever the tariff imposed is
largely in excess of the differential
between the cost of production in the
two countries then there is formed at
once a great temptation to monoplize
the business of producing the particu-
lar product, and to take advantage of
profit in the excessive tariff"

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
City Council Passes Resolution to
Late Mayor Cricket.

In commemoratlol of the late
Mayor William Cricket, the following
resolutions were drawn up and adopt
ed at the regular meeting OF the city
council Monday evening. a. -a
Oskaloosa, Ia, August -, 1907.
Whereas has pleased the d.
vine Ruler of the Universe to call
hence William Cricket, who died at
his home in this city on the morning
of July "a, 1907, therefore. the city
council of Oskaloosa, Iowa, desire to
pay a last tribute of respect to his
memory. .... ..... g.
But recently he, whom we now
mourn, was among us looking forward
TO many years of usefulness. His
heart has ceased to beat and he sleeps
the sleep that knows no waking. We
stand above his honored grave AID re-
call the graces and grand qualities
of his life. A good man has gone 10
the beyond and the city Is poorer for
his loss, though richer and better be-
cause he once lived To those VINO
knew him as he was known here, no
words can add anything to the incense
which envelopes his memory nor in
crease the respect which in his life
his higher character challenged from
all who came in contact with him.
Faithful to hIs friends, yet just 10
his opponents; true to his convictions,
YET ever ready to receive suggestions
and advice. In the city over which
he mad 30 acceptably raled and where
he was so well and widely known, he
was most appreciated and loved. The
announcement of his death carried
sorrow TO all,-the nigh and the low,
the rich and the poor alike. and we
shall Oe fortunate indeed II when our
work is done, II shall have been as
good and our lives as pure as that OF
whom we take the last goodbye. Let
his virtues be written upon marble
and remembered and imitate1 by
those of us VINO survive him.
We submit the following resolu-
tions: 4tF
! Resolved, that this council has
heard with deep regret Of the death OF
Hon. William Cricket. mayor of the
city OF Oskaloosa. Iowa.
Resolved, that the sympathies OF
the members Of this couacil be tender.
ed the relatives OF '1e deceased in
their great bereavement and that a
copy OF these resolutions be trans
mittei by the clerk OF this council
to the relatives OF the deceased and
also be placed upon the minutes OF
this meeting.

lighter and ignited at once. A gen
tleman standing near by tore the veil
away from the lady's head just in time
to save her from what might have
been a more serious confiagration
