fight of the Cincinnati distillers
against the new rules of the internal
revenue department for the brand
ing of spirits, Judge Thompson in the
United States court here this after
noon granted a temporary Injunction,
stopping the enforcement of the new
rules.
The suit for injunction was brought
by the Union Distilling company,
backed by the National Distellers' as
that the system of branding which
has prevailed for the past 40 or 90
years has not been abrogated by the
new pure food law, and that the
customs which have become es-
tabished in the trade by which GER
tain products of the distillers have
been marked spirits and others
alcohol. are not condemned by the
pure food law or in conflict with it.
The new marking rule prescribed
by Commissioner Capers of the in
ternal revenue department, IL is held,
involves damage and on that ac-
count the injunction is granted.
Attorney General Bonaparte has been
directing the fight for the new
branding rules. which are claimed by
the government officials TO be needed
for carrying ont the pure food law.
Local distilling interests are elated
tonight over the granting of the in
junction. The government is TO con-
tinue the fight. and an appeal TO the
United States supreme court is ex-
pected

The secretary of the treasury has
decided that the census bureau was
equipped to undertake the work
Secretary Straus of the department
OF commerce and labor of which the
census bureau is branch, gave the
bureau the necessary authority for
doing so. This bureau now collects
statistics annually from 175 cities,

among business men are included all
who are actively employed. To the
worker who has little property the
matter of employment at remunera-
tive wages is of supreme importance.
Farmers have a similar stake. Mr..
Bryan invites campaign contributions
from these classes. What for? Can
they afford to take him and his pre-
tensions on blind faith? They can
not safely risk their means of liveli-
hood on a politician who has been
twice defeated by the people and who
is identified with discarded para
mount issues that he no longer dares
to defend. Ex-Governor Douglas
knows too much about business TO
take charge of the collection of cam

A single term as the representative

forever Mr.. Bryan is doomed to dis
appointment wherever he tries TO get
in touch with practical business men.
He represents principles and condi-

carry responsibilities that forbid in
diligence in visionary palitics and the
whims of an untried agitator who
thinks only OF his own ambitions.
They deal with hard headed verities,
while Mr.. Bryan is addicted to fad
issues that he drops, when they play
out, with cheerful air of never hav-

in Charge of Saltpeter

BERKELEY, July 17.-Working in

elevation of more than 15,4OO feet is
the novel experience OF two college
graduates. Guy Fraser and Norman
Zolph, of the class of 1907. who have
written descriptive letters TO friends

of saltpeter mines at Collahusai. Chile.
and left the university several months
ago for the high Andes
When they first reached the mines
they were overcome by pima" sick
ness due to the high altitude. and 1t
was thought for a time that they
would have to forsake their positions
and return to the United States.
Both men are rugged athletes and
made their marks on the track in the
university, and after several weeks
they were able TO withstand the rar-
fed atmosphere.
With the exception of an English
man the two university graduates are
the only white men in the region for a
distance OF $50 miles.
Among the amusing features of their
journey inland to the mines was the
fact that the railroad train stopped
every evening at dusk for the night.

BOY SENDS BULLET
INTO LADS BRAIN

OAKLAND. July 17.-Eleven year old
Robert II. Estabrook of 122 Lynde
street, Fruitvale. is dying at the Ala
media sanatorium from the effects of a
bullet that was accidentally fired into
his brain by another boy last Satur-
day morning while Estabrook was
watching a gang of men digging a
sewer trench near his home.
The identity of the lad who fatally
injured young Estabrook while shoot
ing at a bird is known to the parents
of the wounded boy, but thus far they
have refused to divulge his name, as
they are satisfied, after making an in
vestigation, that the injury to their
son was purely accidental
The shooting occurred Saturday
morning about $50 o'clock. The lead
slug struck the lad over the left ear,
fractured his skull and penetrated his
brain. A piece of the bullet was re-
moved by DR.. Daniel A. Crosby, but the
largest part of the missile is embedded
deep in the boys brain. At the Ala
media sanatorium it was given out this
evening that the young patient was
very low and was likely to succumb
at any moment.
