stituted at a meeting of their repre-

Mr.. Carnage pointed to the faith
full observance for nearly a century
of the agreement as to naval power
in the Great Lakes by the United
States and Canada, and declared that
the two tiny vessels there have
proved the most powerful vessels of
war, "the true Dreadnaughts-sin
they have kept the peace by discharg-
ing salvos of good will" "a nation
has everything to dread from gigantic
armed Dreadnaughts," continued Mr..
Carnegie" but nothing to dread from
these true agents of peace"
He declared that Europe is the vor-
tex of militarism, and remarked, in
cidentally that there was no arma-
ment against outside enemies, for the
enemies of Europe are they of its own
household. The ironmaster eloquent
ly depicted the agreement between
Argentina and Chile, marked by the
statue of Christ in the Andes, with
the inscription, Sooner shall these
mountains crumbe to dust than Ar
gentines and Chileans break the peace
which at the feet of Christ the Re
deemer they have sworn to maintain"

according to his affidavit, was mem-
Der of Dewey lodge, and at Friend-
hip lodge he saw two OF the pistols
taken from Police Judge CIV. Ruck.
or during the Eddyvile raid.
Halls connection with the matter
is unique, and his life is already for
feited to the night riders. He had
hard time getting into the night rider
band, but he was a valuable menu
ber because he is a dare devil by dis
position and they could put him to the
front on any sort of a desperate en-
terprise. =, - u ,Vn
He startled County Judge w. r.
Crumbaugh at Eddyville Saturday by
asking him if he remembered sitting
up late on certain night about six
weeks ago churning in the house with
an automatic gun across his knee. He
mentioned the hour and Judge Crum-
baugh said he remembered 1t.

The night riders planned to capture
Judge Crumbaugh, If they could with
out harming him or being shot them
selves, and make him take. the night
rider oath in order to shut him up.
They intended doing the same thing
with County Attorney Krone On the
occasion referred to Judge Crumbaugh
had sat there and churned for a while.
and when he finished he set the churn
aside and went outside the house and
stood guard until O'Clock in the
morning.
1t was learned that Judge Crum-
laugh and County Attorney Krone
never slept in their homes between
the hours of 10 O'Clock at night and
in the morning for nearly three
months before the soldiers reached
Eddyville. They went to bed at dark
and got up at 10 o'clock and took
their station outside, armed with
| three or four automatic guns. At 2
o'clock they went in again and slept
Until s. They have become so accus-
toned to that sort of discipline that
Attorney Krone can lie down at any
time and force himself to sleep and
awaken wide eyed and vigiant. They
often have seen men skulking about
their premises.
! County Attorney Krone has been
threatened time and again and he has
spent several hundred dollars of his
own money in hunting down the night
riders. The deep root the organlza-
ton has taken east of the river
makes his position more hazardous
and more difficult even than that OF
County Judge Wells. of Galloway
county.

facts in the Jodle Groce case that
County Attorney Krone Is receiving
the credit justly due him. The cases

She was incensed, he says, but told

1t is sincerely to be hoped that
Congress will respond to the
Presidents earnest recommen-
dation that the Census Bureau
be placed under civil service pro-
visions. This has been one of
the worst spoils bureaus in the
Government in the past, and the
examinations of employees, of
which members of Congress
prated so loudly, it is said were
only a blind to hide the rampant
spoilsism which prevailed in the
selection of appointees.

The President is making it very
clear that E. H. Hartman, who
has always stood behind ex-Gov.
Ben" Odell, and the Standard
Oil Company are the real oppo-

they are fighting Taft because
they know he would be loyal to
the Roosevelt policies. Once this
fact is brought home to the peo-
pie of the United States, the
nomination by the Republicans
of any candidate whom the Pres
ident does not regard as trust
worthy would insure the success
of Mr.. Bryan.

The cost ofthe paper is worth con-

For it is quite possible for you to

may pay as high as 40c a roll, and
still have patterns away behind

The annual cost of sanitation
on the Panama canal zone is, ap-
proXimately, $4,000, and
since this government took over
the project the entire cost a.
mounts to SIS, 3O7, 900, for santa
ton alone. While this sum seems
a large one, no one now doubts
that it is a wholly legitimate and
absolutely necessary eXpendi-
ture. Col. Goethals has recent
ly cited the possibility of an out
break of yellow fever as one of
the elements that may greatly
increase the cost of canal con-
struction and such an outbreak
would so completely demoralize
the force of workmen on the
zone that the work of reorgani-
zation would have to be practi-
cally done over again. Santa
ton, therefore, rot only contrib
utes to the ultimate success of
the canal enterprise by reducing
the probability of a serious epi-
demic of disease to a minimum,
but it also contributes to the re-
duction of it's possible total cost.
