GOLDF|ELD INJUNCTION
IN THE SUPREME COURT
Will FOLLOW UP
THE Land FRAUDS
(Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Jan. lit was
officially stated by the Department of
Justice today that there would be no
cessation in the prosecution of the
land frauds cases in Colorado and
other Western States, although the
decisions of Judge Lewis made it
necessary to change the procedure in
some respects. 1t was also stated
that an arrangement had been made
by which strict division of work
in these cases between the Interior
Department and the Department of
Justice had been laid down, so that
hereafter the Department of Justice
will undertake no preliminary inves-
tigation, but such work will be done
by the Interior Department, which
will have control of the cases until
they are fully ready for prosecution.
When these have been certified to,
the Department of Justice will have
full control and all negotiations must
be conducted with the department
and it's officials.

OHIO OVER PRESIDENTIAL
NOMINATION.
(Ry Associated Press.)

CLEVELAND, Jan. 1.-THE first
stroke of the Foraker followers here
was made today, when mass meet
ing committee was selected to dis
place the regular" Republican coun-
ty executive committee. The ques-
tion of the legality of the, committee
selected, as against the regular"
committee, said by Forakerites to be
Taft organization, will not be plac-
ed in the hands of the county board
of elections. The c:aims of the So
called Roosevelt committee, the third
element in the local situation, also
rest in the same situation. 1t will
be the duty of the board to determine
which committee is lawful and of
authority to act for the party in this
county. The board has until next
Wednesday to decide upon the merits
of each claimant. Resolutions con-
demning the regular" committee
and one-man power in the party were
adopted.

withstanding reports to the contrary
that they had been taken from the
mines and enrolled under the banner
of the federation. The mine owners
and their representatives declare that
there has not been single detection
from the ranks, and that there is not
likely to be, for the reason that the
men are only too well satisfied with
their surroundings and the character
of work that they are to perform.
AS far as they not knowing that there
was strike here, that statement is
characterized as nonsense by the op-
orators, for the entire country knows
that there is trouble, and that the
mines were closed down because of
it.
