loss last year being no less than 4,42s
men. The secretary declares that,
while many reasons hare been adj
vanced In explanation, a sufficient one
is to be found in the inadequacy Of
army pay. He recommends the adop-
tlon for the army Of the navy system,
under which the president is author
lied to fix the rates Of pay within de-
fined limits, as means Of obtaining
better discipline and higher eff
cheney. He also recommends the crea-
ton of a general service corps to re-
lieye the soldiers of the vast amount
Of unmllitary work they are now called
upon to perform. In his opinion the
military service should be so attractive
and desirable that it will not be diff
cult to get and hold the class of men
needed for the enlisted personnel. The
estimates for the support of the mill
tary esta blishment during the next fis-
cal year are 1852, 1871 greater than
last years appropriations. By far the
greater part Of the increase is for coast
defense works.

Bryan Hailed at Chicago.
Jackson day at Chicago was far
different affair from that of the New
York gathering. There the banquet
given by the Jefferson club was the
scene Of Bryan love feast, in which
GOO Democrats cheered riotously the
words of the Nebraskan. Most of the
speeches lauded President Roosevelt as
the man "who had appropriated the
Bryan platforms and made them popu-
lar with the people," All pleaded for
harmony for the approaching triumph
under ''the leadership of the matchless
Bryan" In his speech Bryan called the
Republicans "the party Of the aristo-
Gratis" which sees every measure Of
law and policy from the viewpoint of
plutocracy, He described the Democ-
racy as "the other sO,O00,0OO." All
they needed to do was to convince. the
people that the Democratic party is
democratic.
Taft on Labor lniunctions.
Secretary Lewis of the Ohio Fedora.
ton of Labor has received letter
from Secretary Of War Taft replying
specifically to four questions Of inter-
est to labor, as follows: First, that he
sees no objection to law restricting
or defining the power Of the courts to
issue injunctions and specifying the
language in which they may be franz
ed, but he points out that such laws
generally are the. province Of the states
and that federal law would not apply
beyond the jurisdiction of the federal
I courts. Second, he sees no objection to
a provision that no restraining order
shall issue except after notice to de-
PENDANT and a hearing. as he believes
that the purposes of a strike and strik-
ing men may be entirely lawful. Third
as to the fixing of certain limit Of
time in which to hear application for
injunctions he believes that this is nee
essary except where the power Of issu.

the court. He admits that the issuing
| of eX parte DEGREES has in the past Civ
en- rise to "abuses and injustices.'
Fourth, he does not deem 1t unreason
able to have provision giving the per
son charged with contempt In violation
of an injunction the right to object te
/ hearing by the same judge who Is
sued the injunction. These views he
expressed in speech at New Yorl

The jury in the case of Caleb Powers,
charged with the murder of Governor
Elect William Goebel of kentucky,
failed to reach an agreement and was
discharged. The jury stood ten for ac-
quittal and two a. conviction. Judge
Morris set Monday. July 6, as the date
for new hearing for the accused. The
jurors who stood for acquittal signed
request to Governor Wilson to re-
lease James Howard, who is serving a
life sentence for completely in the Goe-
bel murder. The jurors say that the
testimony introduced in the late trial
has convinced them that Howard is
entirely innocent.
New Jersey Railroad Tax Valid.
The New Jersey court of errors and
appeals has affirmed the constitution
ality of the Perkins main stem railroad
tax act, thus putting upon railroads
the burden of taxation at the average
tax rate" of the state payable upon
assessments made by the state board
Of assessors. This means that the rail-
roads of New Jersey must pay about
400 per cent more taxes, an increase Of
about $2,5oo,ooo on main stem prop
erty.
Pettibone Not Guilty.
The trial of George A. Pettibone at

Receivers For Great Western.
Upon the order of President Stickney
Of the Chicago Great Western railway
from London, where he had gone In
the hope of raising capital, an applica-

crates 1,4I4 miles of tracks. The plan
is to put $4,000, 600: first mortgage on

Country Banks Blamed.
A circular issued by the National

order must be restored. A party of 300
night riders later visited the large to-
bacco growers about Powerville and
Augusta and induced them to sign a
pledge not to raise any tobacco this
year and to hold their 1907 crops. The
governor offers $500 for any conviction
through advance information Of an in
tended raid. The agent of the Milwau-
kee Mechanics Fire Insurance compa-
ny has recommended the cancellation
of all insurance on tobacco In Ken
lucky outside of Louisville, he having
made special investigation. He says
there is no probability of any conyic-
tons. although the names of the riders
are well known, witnesses either SYM
pathizing with the raiders or intimi-
dated by them, refusing to testify or
pleading forgetfulness. The withdrawal
of insurance is expected to injure the
pool, as money will not be advanced on
warehouse receipts in order to make
advances to the farmers. 1t is believed
that the loss of the independent pro-
ducers exceeds that of the trust to
E ~ 2 q ~ !
which they have sold tobacco. Gov
trnor Wilson says that these raids will
make it harder for the growers to get
living prices, will shake the faith Of
the people in the protection Of the laws
and will force capital and valuable i'm
migration to shun Kentucky without
the least chance of helping the men
who formed these conspiracies. Fur
Their, he declares. it means the peniten-
tiary for these men and for their dupcs
and that there can be no possible hope
that the Kuklux Khan can govern
Kentucky. Russellyille is town Of
1000 inhabitants, thirty-one miles from
Hopkinsvtlle, the scene of the last big
