FIGHTING FoRMosAN TRIBES
Abori9ines Willing to Give UP Enc
mics Skulls.

Several weeks ago ten communities
of the Nan-Ow aboriginal tribe in
the Giran province OF Formosa pro.
posed to the government to submit
says the South China Post. Upon this
the government gave them the follow
ing items of conditions under which
the government was disposed TO admit
their submission:
/. The aborigines concerned should
hand over to the government those
skulls which had been cut Of the bod
les of the other tribes whom they
killed and are keeping in their houses
according 10 their habits.
.. The arms and ammunition should
all be- Surrendered to the government.
The aborigines agreed to the former
condition. but many Ct them objected
10 the latter. and thereupon they gave
up the idea OF submission. Since then
they are again Offering resistance
against the government troops. APP
rearing here and there in the vicin-
10y OF the Ayu line la guard line es-
tablished by the government against
the msubiu2ated sbOrigines), but the
government troops having finished the
construction Of their guardhouses, tel
euhone lines and wire entanglements,
and thus almost attaining their object.
are now chiefly paying attention TO
their guard service. attaching less inn
portance 10 their submission.

STOCKS FELL OFF
Downward Movement of Prices At.
tributed to Efforts of the
Professional Element.

New York. Oct, 2S.-The downward
movement of prices of stocks today
was commonly attributed to the eff
forts of the professional element
Their motive was found in the con
yiCtion that stocks were being sup
piled on rising prices to meet any
outside demand that developed They
prcfessed to detect distribution
which they believed to be for the ac,
count of financial powers which have

1t was argued from this evidence
| that a similar course of procedure
was III contemplation after the cleo
ton to take advantage Of any new
demand for stocks which might arise
then. Suggestions current in the
financial district of the extent Of
speculative holdings (which are
awaiting an opportunity for lquida-
ton reach such formidable figures
that misgivings arise of the suf-
ficiency OF tn expected new demand

pprices. The response of the market
to the quarterly report of the United
States Steel corporation was the i'm
mediate occasion for this process of
reasoning of the professional specu-
latiye mind. Earnings for the quar-
ter proved larger than preliminary
estimates heard yesterday inv Wall
street The increase in untitled or
ders on hand OF 100000 tons over the
previous quarters end was distinctly
encouraging in its proof OF better
ment in the trade. The fact that was
was that after the mo-
mentary advance, prices sold off in

With that occasion so near at hand, |

FAL sIFlcATIoN.

Under this heading the Burlington
Hawk-Eye reprints the following para
grapa from the Democratic paper in
this city:
Kennedy is a strong henchman of
Car Cannon. H was with the speaker
on the questions which were of vital
Importance to the people. He was one
of the congressman who made it pos
sible for the speaker to prevent any of
the measures advocated by the llbor
interests from becoming a law. II
elected Kennedy will vote for Cannon
and the interests again. 1t remains
to be seen whether the laboring men of
the First district will vote for a man
who would misrepresent them in con-
gress."
The reply that the Hawk-Eye makes
to the Misrepresentation INDUCED in
by the Democratic organ is to the point
/ and conclusive. 1t advises the latter
! not to worry, and says that the labor
ing men of the First district will vote
! for c. A. Kennedy because of the mer-
! itorious record he made in congress
during t.he first tern, of his service
! The reasons for this attitude of First
district laboring men are thus clearly
stated:
They recognize the falsity of the at
tftude of those Democratic organs ant
speakers that are attempting to preju
dice them against Mr.. Kennedy They
! know the statement that Speaker Can
non and Mr.. Kennedy opposed ever.
measure advocated by the labor inter
ests is untrue. They are cognizant o
the fact taat Speaker Cannon favored
and aided in passing many laws bene
fetal to labor, and that Kennedy votet
for every one of them-the employers
liability act the safety appliance law
the law limiting the hours of work
the eight-hour law in government SCI
vice and many others. The wage-earr
ers are, therefore. paying no attention
to such statements as that of the Keo
kuk Democratic organ, but are prepal
ing to vote as they have voted in tn
past, with the possible exception tina
more of them will vote for Kennel
than did two years ago.

PANIC HAS IMPROVED LABOR.

President Finley of the Southern
Railway in his annual report, draws
attention to one quite significant eff
feet of The industrial depression upon
labor. He has discovered that his
employees are more attentive and will
ing because they know that some one
is waiting and longing for their jobs.
On this account he figures that SO
much more and better work has been
done that the operating expenses have
ben greatly reduced. In the face OF
decrease of sG92,o15 in gross earn
ings for the month of March there was
shown decrease of nearly million
dollars in operating expenses as com.
pared with the same month of last
year. Finley says that the men de-

The fairness and franI IS of the
Washington Democrat is worthy of
emulation and praise. 1t does not pre-
tend to know whether Governor Has
kell of Oklahoma is guilty or not, but
it confesses that he seems to it to be
doing a good deal Of denying for an in
nocent man. The Democrat thus states
the case with admirable perspicuity
and truth:
When man is innocent he has pa
thence to wait till time vindicates him.
Haskell is not foolng anybody. We
believe for Bryan's sake Haskell ought
to shut up and 90 off by himself some
where in the deep wild, dark woods of
Oklahoma, if there are any wood lands
there and if not then if he were to
jump into well 1t wouldn't hurt us
any He is about as bad as Foraker
in our judgment"
