COMMONER SEEKS JOHNsON's AID
Personal Letter Received by the
Governor Asking for a Con.
ference at ''FairvieW."

On Saturday Gov. johnson received
a personal letter, in autograph, from
William Jennings Bryan, democratic
nominee for the presidency, requesting
his early presence at 'FairvieW," the
commoner's home, and asking him
when he could be available for speak
ing purposes.
The latter question is asked. Mr..
Bryan says in his letter, in view Of
the numerous requests that have been
received for Gov. johnson for speak
ing dates in the various states. He
says the demand in this respect is
general, and he hopes the Minnesota
governor will be able to give them his
attention.
Mr.. Bryan refers to the visit made
him at Lincoln by the Minnesota dele
cation and the cordial support ten
dered him by the Individual delegates.
He was told then that Gov. johnson
would be available when wanted and
he now hastens to request his presence
at F'airview that details concerning
the campaign may be talked over.

made painstaking, conscientious and
accommodating officials. In fact you
hear it on all hands that they attend
to their official duties with more dili-
gence and zeal than any trio OF coun-
ty servants we have had in a dozen
years. A square deal demands their
reelection without opposition, and,
as the Confrey Times says, a square
deal usually appeals to Brown coun-
ty voters.

sentative, things have not taken de-

Shooting on the 800 and 1,O0O-yard
ranges is necessary to enter the ex-
pert riieman's class and mighty few
there are, indeed, who qualify. AS
they say in camp, there is where they
weed 'em OUT But Company A was
exceptionally fortunate. Out of the
eleven who had qualified as sharp
shooters, nine came out of the test on
the long distance ranges as experts.
Here are their names with the cor
rected scores:

evening.
Red fire and cheers greeted the boys
as they marched through the principal

and, while the reception accorded
them was by no means elaborate, it
showed at least the feeling of regard
in which the local members of the
guard are held by the denizens of this,
their home city.
The work at camp this year con-
sisted chiefly in practice on the ranges.
The change in rifles, which took place
only a couple of months ago, made
this necessary, and, now that it is all
over, the officers of the regiment are
congratulating themselves on the ex-

the First and Third regiments were

lNEBRlATE FARM LAW HELD VALID
State Supreme Court Renders De-
cision Of Vital Interest to
Every City.

The law passed by the last legisla-
ture, providing that two per cent of
the income arising in the various
municipalities of the state from the
licensing of saloons be sent to the
state treasurer for the maintenance of
a farm and hospital for habitual
drunkards, is constitutional.
The state supreme court so decided
on Friday in a case brought by the
board of control against the city of
Morris.
pay the assessment against the city's
income on the ground that the money
was not subject to taxation and that
the state had no constitutional right
to provide a hospital for man be-
cause he drank too much.
The court, however, in an opinion
rendered by Chief Justice Start, takes
the position that the legislature alone
gave the cities the right to license
liquor selling and that the power which
gives has the power to take away.
Furthermore, it holds that the method
of commitment to the inebriate insti-
tuition carefully protects the constitu-
tional rights of the individual and
there can be no question but that the
state has a right to exercise this
paternal oversight.
The board of control will therefore
be able to proceed with the location
and erection of the proposed hospital
as soon as the necessary amount of
funds have accumulated in the state
treasury. At present it is estimated
that there is in the neighborhood of
$50, 900 available.

SAYS MIRACLES
Are FABRICATIONS

CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-Prof. Herbert
l.. Willett, an instructor in the divin-
ity school of the University of Chi
cago, today declared the old tesla
ment to be fiction. He said the mir
acles of the. good book were fabrica-
tions, and nothing more than fables.
This sensational announcement
was made in an open lecture at Has
kell hall and caused sensation in
the religious school.
Professor Willett classes the fol-
lowing stories as fiction:
Jonah being swallowed = by a
whale.
The Red sea opening up to allow
the children of Israel to escape from
the bondage in Egypt.
Part of the story of Adam and Eve
in the Garden of Eden
Lots wife turning to salt when she
looked back at the forbidden city.
Abraham taking his son into the
mountains and offering him as sac
rifice.
Samson Staying 1000 Phillistines
with the jawbone of an ass.
The falling of the walls of Jericho.
Professor Willett prefaced his dis
belief in the truth of the old tesla
ment by telling of how Christ in
structed by parallels. and that the
church since that day has used fic-
ton to teach morals and ethical
truths.
He said modern belief similar to
the old testament was the story of
Santa Claus.

SPANKING CASTRO
IS NOT So EASY
(By Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, July 30.-It be-
came patent today that spanking,
Castro is an operation much easier to
talk about than to accomplish. Even
Holland may have to sit down to a
contemplation of the willy venezuelan
without hope of finding way to
adopt either corrective or punitive
measures, thereby putting herself in
the class with the United States and
France.
This was apparent even before the
announcement from The Hague that
the dispatch of the Gelderland did
not mean bombardment, but mere
the representation of Holland.
Venezuelan ports, it is feared, may
not be attacked because Great Brit
ain, Germany and Italy have a mort
gage on the revenues. Blockade or
bombardment would shut off the
revenues and leave the creditors for
whom these governments acted with
out a dollar of income on their liens
automatically speaking, it is
delicate situation. Practically it is
not so grave for the reason that the
Netherlands cannot invite the three
great powers to stand aside while she
makes Venezuela smart for the acts
of aggression on the part OF Castro's
government. The government of the
Netherlands, had 1t the power, would
have the prior right to take steps
looking toward the institution Of
government capable of and Inclined
to render the respect to other ma
lions commanded by the law Of ma
lions.

DEMANDS LIST OF
RAILWAY PASSES

BOSTON, july 30.-The latest in
teresting chapter in the campaign
against the Boston and Maine by
Rosecrans w. Pillsbury, a candidate
for the Republican nomination for
governor of New Hampshire, is fur
nished through publicity given to
letters exchanged by Lucius futile,
president of the railroad company
and Mr.. Pillsbury.
The subject of contention appear-
ed to be the number of free passes.
II any, that the railroad has and is
said to be issuing. Mr.. Pillsbury
made demand on Mr.. futile, that.
in the interests of public policy, he
furnish list of the free passes, and
the names of the holders. Mr.. futile
answered by denying that his road
was taking part in politics, or that
any persons were being influenced in
New Hampshire by the gifts OF free
passes, adding that it would be i'm
proper for the Boston and Maine to
issue a campaign document for the
alleged benefit of any candidate for
a political office.
Mr., Pillsbury made reply that II
was inferrible that the Boston and
Maine this year had sent out between
500 and 700 annual free passes to
persons in New Hampshire. and
about 400 of these were sent to men
whose political activity and acumen
were well known. Mr.. Pillsbury
makes a demand upon the railroad
for some statement that will explain
the consideration for which these al
legged passes are issued.

GIBSON WILL Be
GIVEN new TRIAL

CARSON CITY, Aug. 3.-The SUI
preme court of the state Saturday
handed down an opinion granting an
other trial to George Gibson, a for
mer deputy sheriff at Goldfield.
and convicted of manslaughter for
the killing of Richard Maunsell, a
mining engineer, on August 13,
1907. Gibson is now serving SEN
tence of three years for the crime
but under the decision he is granted
new trial.
At the trial of Gibson on the
charge of murder one of the witness
les summoned by the state could not
be located so the testimony as given
by said witness at the preliminary
trial in the justice court was adj
mitted as evidence, the stenographer
taking the evidence making oath as
to the correctness or his notes. The
defense objected to the admission of
the evidence, basing the objection on
the ground that the law providing
for admission of evidence in such a
manner was unconstitutional. The
supreme court sustained the decision,
holding that the title of the act in
question was defective in that it did
not include reference to such a
feature and also that the act covered
more than one subject. The opinion
was written by Judge Sweeney and
concurred in by the full court.

GOULD FAILS TO
RETAIN CONTROL

NEW YORK, Aug. George ].
Gould spent the day in vain effort
to retain the control of the railroad
system which for SO many years has
been operated under his family
name. His failure, 1t is understood,
is due to the position of his sister,
Helen, who forced him to give up.
Miss Gould is of the opinion that
he is undertaking too much in at
tempting to manage the numerous
properties which the Gould family
controls. This is especially SO, in
view of the banking enemies he has
made and the inability of his rail-
road companies to maintain the mar
ket for their stocks.
Although he has made strenuous
efforts, Gould found it impossible to
obtain relief in any other direction
than the one dominated by Harri-
man, and after numerous confer
ences consuming the entire day he
announced that arrangements had
been made for taking care of the
$S.00O,00O Of Wheeling and Lake
Erie notes that fall, due Monday.
Kuhn, Loeb and company and Blair
and company will take them up In
behalf of Hartman. Hartman will
in the future occupy very much the
same position regarding the Gould
roads that he does now in the Erie.
