Who Are
the Coyotes?

Well, Mr.. Lode-Express, you
arose in your unrightous indig-
nation when we stated to the
public Just how cheap you were,
and thought to relieve your pent
up feeling by callings us coyotes.
We are perfectly willing to let
any person judge as to who are
the coyotes of the printing pro-
fession of Lincoln county, and
Just who should be arrested for
cruelty to the profession.
Is it cruelty to the profession
to hold up prices to living
basis so that you can pay labor
what it is worth? We think not.
Yet our bid for the county adj
vertising for Lincoln county was
within a cent or two of being
FIVE times as great as yours, Mr..
ode-Express."
You bemoan the fact that
prices are so low in Lincoln
county. Who is responsible for
this condition of affairs? Just
such outfits as you are. During
the thirty years existence of
the RECORD, we challenge any
one to point to a single in
stance where this paper has not
stood for fair living prices, and
we can give you another assur-
anee, that, under the pres
ent management, the same pol
icy will be adhered to. No sir,
we don't want the money that
bad.
We never did charge that the
Lode-Express" would suspend .
publication. Evidently they had
been thinking of it. If the re-
cent contract they acquired will
allow them to remain in the field
Of publications in Lincoln county,
we will say candidly, that we
are immensely pleased that they
secured it. The article appear
ing in the former issue of the
RECORD was not intended as a
howl, but as a fair comparison
If the existing prices and that
allowed by law.

Chippewa Falls, Wis, September B. Judge John J. Jenkins, congressman from the Eleventh Wisconsin district, today received a letter from William Loeb, Jr., secretary to President Roosevelt, in which Secretary Loeb says that the statements made in circular purported to have been issued by Judge Smith of Superior on the eve of the primary election are false.
 It is alleged by Judge Jenkins friends that the circular in question brought about the defeat of Jenkins by Irvine L. Lenroot for the republican congressional nomination.
 The letter is dated at Oyster Bay, Sep tember 4, and reads as follows:
 My Dear Judge Jenkins: l am in re- ceipt of your letter of the 2d, without in closure. The statements which the circu- lar says were made by the President through his secretary are absolutely false Judge Smith called .at the executive of flee and asked to see the President. He vas told by Acting Secretary Forster that the President would not see him or any one else on a matter of local political nature and would not discuss it in any way. Judge Smith then wrote a note to the President, asking him to state whether lKlns that the President had written him a letter urging his renomination was true. Judge Smith was again told that the

 COMPLETELYBURNED
NEGRO SKATING AUDITORIUM IS TOTALLY DESTROYED BY FIRE WHICH BROKE OUT AT EARLY HOUR THIS MORNING.

The negro skating auditorium on the corner of Eleventh street and seventh avenue. north. was burned completely to the ground this morning at an early hour.
 An alarm was turned in at No l sta ton of the fire department just few minutes after 1 o'clock, but the fire must have started about 12:30. When the fire bell was sounded the reflection of the fire shone in the top windows of all or the tall buildings in the sheart of the city, and before the department could reach the scene of the blaze the entire buildings. which was frame structure, was in flames.
 It was possible to get but one line of hose on the fire and water had to be carried through this line for a distance of about three blocks. Shortly after the first water was thrown on the burning building the whole structure collapsed and the one stream of water was inef- fective.
 The fire department succeeded in say. ing other buildings in the immediate vi- cinity only by the most commendable work.
 The skating rink is a complete loss. Nothing was left of it except the brick pillars on which it stood. The loss could not be ascertained this morning, but 1t will amount to several thousand dol lars

GERMAN ARMY IN
 BIG SHAM BATTLE

St. Johann n-the-Saar, September s. The expected encounter between the two armies engaged in the German autumn maneuvers did not take place today ow- ing to the cautious tactics observed by the respective commanding generals. By g o'clock this morning the "red'' cavalry had occupied a strong position in val ley, while the "blue" cavalrymen were massed behind a wood a few miles away.
 Although both sides had succeeded in locating one another the cavalry was afraid of losing their advantageous position and did not come to an encounter.
 The labors of the day fell to the ar tillery, which, posted on heights blazed away mercilessy. The "red' infantry now extends along line nine miles long. Emperor William, wearing the picture sque green uniform of the Posen Chas- seurs came on the field early in a motor car and spent the day on hillside in the vicinity of the fred" cavalry. With his majesty were the crown prince, Prince August William, Archduke Fran cis Ferdinant, of Austria, and the Duke of Saxe-Coburg Gotha. AS usual the Emperor threw himself with the greatest zest into the spirN of the maneuyers. He was in conversation with Lieutenant General Count von Moltke, or one of the other umplres continually, and did not take lunch until after o'clock. At this hour he sat down on kitchen chair be- fore a plain wooden table and had light luncheon that had been cooked on one of the small portable army ranges The meat was served by the imperial ser wants.
 Mai. Gen. Leonard Wood, U. s. A., accompanied by Lieutenant Colonel Wis ser, the military attache at Berlin, and Capt. Halstead Dorey, of the fourth in fantry, at o'clock proceeded on spe- cial train to the scene of the maneuvers, and spent the day on horse back.

Chicago by the expatrates of % national ities of the old world
 '"rhe National festival" concludes Miss Hofer "has to do with the heart history of people, and centers about such events as lift the deeper passions of a race into united, heroic action.
