Kaufman Sends Boston Boy to
Sunderland

NEW YORK, n. V, Oct. 10.-Al.
Kaufman of San Francisco knocked
out Fred Bradley of Boston in the
fourth round of what was to have
been a six-round go at the National
Athletic Club here last night. The
men fought at catch weights, Kauf-
man being about twenty pounds the
heavier.
The battle, which was a gruelliDs
enc throughout, was witnessed by n
large crowd. Kaufman in the first
round, with left and right to head,
put Bradley to the floor twice. Brad
ley took the count on the second
knockdown, but he got up strong and
STAYED Kaufman off to the bell.
Bradley came up fresh for the Sec
ond round and succeeded, after rail-
ly, in leading with his left on Kauf-
mans head. Bradley had the better
of the round.
In the third Bradley was still full
of fight. but no telling blows were
landed by either.
Kaufman met Bradley's rush at
the opening of the fourth with right
and left to the head. He then sent
n left jolt to the jaw which downed
Bradley. When he arose Bradley got
a smash from Kaufmans left on the
head which put him to his knees. He
continued to hold on. but Kaufman,
breaking loose. sent Highlander
to the head and followed 1t with a
terrific left swing to the Jaw. which
finally put Bradley down and out.
Bradley was removed to the dress
ing-room in an unconscious condi-
ton, and did not come to for several
hours.

Lead building Site Purchased.

. Lead, July 23.-The government
has purchased from the firm of Fish
& Hunter a plot of ground at the
corner of Main and siever streets as
a location for the Lead government
building, paying the sum Of $4,000
for the property. q,
Since the settlement of the con-
demnation proceedings some months
ago, when the government decided to
pay the price asked without taking
the matter into court, nothing had
been heard from Washington and
many inquiries had been made by
anxious citizens. as to where the
building proposition stood. The
money was paid over as stated
above, and no questions asked, and
Fish G Hunter at once commenced
arrangements to move their office
building from its present location
on the corner to a lot some distance
west of where it now stands. It Is
proposed to move 1t, turn 1t hall

years ago on the strength OF the rep
resentation to the Parker campaign
managers that Bryan would try to
earry the Nebraska Legislature as a
senatorial candidate. AS. Nebraska's
majority against Parker was no less
than $4,000 it must be remarked
that whatever became of the money,
1t was obtained by false pretenses.
An immense amount of money was
invested in the Bryan campaign
fund for 1896 by the silver mining
interests, for Bryan's success meant
unlimited profits to them.
The worst plague spot nthe Uni
ted States for campaign corrup-
ton fund is Tammany, an organic
alton without which the democratic
party would be in hopeless condi-
ton in the State of New York and
Nationally. Tammay rolls in the
campaign money, fact that could
be guessed from the enormous ex-
penditures and huge salary list OF
New York City, whose debt is rapid
ly approaching $1,000, 100000. What
chance is there that Tammany will
ever publish a true statement of its
financing campaign? Not one dol
lar in twenty that it spends in pol
itical work will ever see the light of
print. Mr.. Bryan claims that he was
beaten by the us Of money in 1896
and 1900, but the popular plurality
against him was first 100000 and
then 100000, and he must have a
low idea of the integrity of the Am
erican people if he thinks these YER
diets were purchased. The repub-
lican party can better afford to face
the publicity issue, both as to past
and the present, tl1sn can any of the
combines with which Bryan has been
dentified.-Globe Democrat.

CHARGE FRAUD IN LAND DEAL
Hot Springs Man is Arrested on
Des Moincs Complaint.

DcS MONIES SOmpluluCs
Des Moines, July 23.-R. G. Hall,
said to have conspired with L. w.
Akin to defraud Cecil Stewart, of
East Des Moines, out of several
thousand dollars in bogus land
deal, several months ago, was arrest
ed in Hot Springs, S. D., Friday and
will be brought back to Des Moines
to stand trial. Detective Bracket
left for Hot Springs that day to bring
Hall to Des Moines.
With the arrest of Hall and Akin
who was apprehended in Wyoming
several weeks ago, the authorities
believe they have the ringleaders of
the five men who are alleged to have
conspired to defraud Stewart. After
having been indicted last fall, Akin
jumped his bond and for months
eluded arrest. Detective Bracket
finally secured clue to his where
abouts, and several weeks ago ran
him down.
Akin, Hall and three other men
opened land Office in this city last
fall. They represented themselves
as agents for Dakota lands. They
persuaded Stewart, he claims. to &C.
company them to South Dakota and
showed him a splendid piece Of
ground, which Stewart declared he
supposed he was buying. But it is
said that when he received his deco
he found himself the owner of moth

1t is expected that Akin and Hal
will be brought before the grand
jury at the fall term Of court.

Ranchers in Washington, Idano
and Oregon are deep in the wheat
harvest, and it is estimated the to-
tai crop in the three states will ag-
gregate 4S,500,00O bushels, with a
market value of from $36,375, 900
to s3S,S00,000. The last named fig
ure is for S0-cent grain which
price the leading buyers and mill
ing men in Spokane say will pre-
vail, in view of the shortage on
the Pacific coast. At any rate they
do not believe the market will open
under rs cents. The estimates for
1908 are: Washington, 100000
bushels; Oregon 100000 bushels;
Idaho, 100000. The banner crop
harvested in the history of the three
states, harvested in 1907, brought
the farmers little more than $685.

follows: Washington, 25,075,25S
bushels; Oregon, 14,215,597 bush
els; Idaho, S,231,O00 bushels. The
total acreage in 1908 was as fol-
lows: Washington, 1,447,00G; Ore
gon, 725, 900; Idaho, $4,000; total
2,546,0O0 as against 2,340,000
acres in 1907. The barley and oats
crop in Washington are expected to
be heavier in 1908 than they were
in 1907, when 10,365,OOO bushels

IN 1896 the farmers voted for
Bryan in the belief that better times
would follow his election and the
free coinage of silver. His defeat
and the retention of the gold basis
has been followed by IL years of the
most general prosperity the country
has ever enjoyed. Farmers have
witnessed an era of high prices and
this year Mr.. Bryan has nothing to
offer them. 1t is admitted that he
cannot carry the east, there is no
hope for him in the great west. So
1t SINNERS down to solid south
for Bryan against a solid north for
Taft.
Following is the plank in the plat
form adopted by the South Dakota
republican state convention relating
to bank depositors: "Our national
platform favors the establishment
of a postal savings bank system for
the convenience of the people and
the encouragement of thrift. The
protection of depositors against loss
by insolyent and mismanaged banks,
and the protection of solvent and
we'll managed banks against runs
and panics require that postal saw
ings bank laws be accompanied by
efficient laws, state and national,
providing for the insurance of de-
positors against loss. We favor the
enactment Of such laws.
William Randolph Hearst has re-
fused to support Bryan. He says he
has no use for Chameleon candi-
dates who change the color of their
political opinions with every vary
ing hue of opportunities" This is
a reference to Mr.. Bryan's retreat on
the question of government owner
ship as soon as he discovered that it
didn't pay. Il have lost faith"
says Mr.. Hearst, sin the empty pro-
fession of unregenerate democracy"
and he makes it very clear that the
Hearst papers will give no support
to Mr.. Bryan or to the democratic
party. Mr.. Hearst is going to keep
on booming the little toy party of
his own. He enjoys it and can af-
ford it. But only think of the taffy
which Bryan wasted on the yellow
editor. only to get slap in the
face.

tied the Capuchan church to lay a

velvet and gold, while the lesser
Hapsburgs rest under red and silver
trappings, there is an array of crys-

Of Hapsburg. Ever since the 10 tn
century 1t has been the custom of
the royal house for its dead to have

The Mexican government now
claims to have caugHt the two chief
instigators of the recent revolt in
the northern section of the country.
These men, known as Trevino and
Pena, travelled through the dIsaf-

clergymen. They are said to have
admitted under extreme pressure
their connection with certain revo-
lutionary juntas in San Antonio,
Tex, and st. Louis, Mo. They &C
knowledged the real leader of the
revolution was Magon, now at large
in the United States. at Juarez
thirty-two revolutionists were held
by the troops.
