the growing desire of the Australian people for complete independence which the fleet from the American republic has greatly augmented. The people of Melbourne aud other Aus trslian cities have gone wild over the American Men of War. The officers and crew have not only been officially entertained, but the functions have passed beyond mere official courtesy and hecome constant demonstration, of..sffeceion for the Stars and Stripes. The motto of all the speeches hss
 been .sblood is thicker than water. The similarity of American and Aus srslian interests. their common origin. their growing commercial bonds and she mutual responsibility for guard ianship of the Pacific, these have been exa lied everywhere. The American ideas and influences have for the time
 being eelipssd England in the minds of she masses of the people. The legal ties binding Great Britain with Aus tralia are slight. The real ties are
 those of blood and friendship. If
 America supplsnss England in the hearts of the people the chief link to

BRIGGS SURVEY
made THE line
SECRETARY AND COMMISSIONERS
JOIN IN DECISION MARKING
TRUE NORTH LINE OF NEZ
PIERCE RESERVATION.

The local land Office has received
a decision from the secretary and
commissioner in which the north
boundary of the Nez Perez Indian
reservation is held to be the line
located by Surveyor Briggs, and the
survey made by Engineer Hurlbut
is not recognized.
This decision is of special impor-
lance from the fact that about 20
bomesteads are affected by the rul-
ing. In making the surveys for the
property north of the line the south
boundary was extended to a point
considerably south of the reserva-
ton line, and when the survey was
made for the property south of the
line the reservation boundary was
made their north line.
This resulted in about 20 of the
claims overlapping and the matte
" as brought to the attention of TIL
land office to determine the tru.
north boundary. The secretary sug
gests that those who have lost
part of their land by>reason of tn
error in the survey shall be REIN
bursed by being allowed to max
filings in some other locality for al
amount of land equal to that affect
ed by the decision.

LIABILITY BILL UP TO TEDDY.
Senate Passes the House Bill With
out Division.

WASHINGTON, April 10.-The
bill relating to the liability of COM
mon carriers by railroads, passed In
the house of representatives on
April 9Th. yesterday passed the SEN
ate without division.
The senate bill on the same sub
!, ject was not confined to railroads,
but covered all forms of common
carriers, and Senator Dolliver of
Iowa, who had reported 1t for the
committee on education and labor,
sought to substitute 1t for the house
bill, but his motion was defeated.
Numerous amendments were offered
to the bill, but all we're voted down
AS passed, the bill is expected to
meet the objections of the United
States supreme court to the common
carrier liability law of 1906, decided
to be unconstitutional by the court.
The bill abolishes the strict COM
mon law liability, which bars re-
covery for personal injury or death
Of an employee occasioned by the neg
ligence of a fellow servant.
1t also relaxes the common law
rule which makes contributory neg
ligence a defense to claims for such
injuries, and permits an employe to
recover for an injury caused by neg.
ligence of a coemploye. The bill does
not bar recovery, even though the in
jured one contributed by his own
negligence to the injury The
amount of the recovery is diminish
ed In the same degree with the neg
ligence of the injured to the injury.

MEETING TUESDAY
STATE CENTRAL
COMMITTEE CALLED.
Convention Date and Manner %
Choosing Delegates - Before
Governing Rody.

Louisville, Feb. l5.--The Republi'
can state central committee will meet
at the Louisville hotel at | O'Clock
Tuesday afternoon next for the pur-
pose of fixing the date of the state
convention and the manner in which
the delegates to the convention shall
be selected. The call was issued yes
terday afternoon by Chairman Rich
ard p Ernst, of Covington. The can
embraces the statement that the
committee will transact any business
that may come before it. At presen,
il is claimed that there are no differ
ences to be adjusted by the commit
tee, and hence the only business out
side of hearing from the leaders as to
the good of the order will be issuing
a cali for a convention.
Owing to the fact that the Repub-
lican national convention will be held
June 16, II makes il necessary that
the state convention be held at least
thirty days previous to that time.
This being the case. the state con-
vention cannot be held later than
May 20. The prevailing opinion is
that the convention will be held about
the middle of May. 1t is asserted
that the weather in April is too
treacherous, and it is the first spring
month in which farmers can do any
thing toward preparing for crops. and
for this reason May will be a better
month in which to hold the conven-
ton.
