San Bernardino, CAL, Oct.-Devel-
opments in the chase across the des-
ert wastes of San Bernardino county
after willie Boy" ''bad" Piute
Indian, form thrilling chapter in this
story of real life.
willie Boy" murdered in cold
blood his l4-year-old. sweetheart,
whom he carried away from the home
Of her father at Banning, in four days
after he had killed her father, Old
Boniface, a reservation Indian, when
the latter refused to let his daughter
60 away with the young Piute buck.
Find Girls Dead Body.
A posse of deputies, led by Sheriff
Wilson, with Indian trailers, came at
dawn upon the body of the girl at
The Pipes, a water hole fifty-five
miles away. There was a bullet hole
through the girls heart, and her
body was cruelty torn and her feet
blistered and cut.
Footprints around where the body
lay told something of the tragedy.
Indian trailers were able to tell that
willie Boy" had partly carried and
partly dragged the girl in the last
stage of their flight.
He had shot her through the heart
rather than let her fall into the hands
of her friends alive.
willie Boy" is believed now to
have made his escape to the Arizona
border.
Three officers and two Indian trail
ers left for Daggett, hoping to head
off the Indian or pick up his trah.

His Eyes Open.

A Republican, writing from Jeffer-
son City to the Kansas City Star, rec
ognizes that the Republicans have
handed the country a gold brick. He
says:
"a studyofthe schedules ofthe new
Tariff Law will show whether or not
the party pledges have been compli-
ed with and the Presidents speech,
made up from Payne's argument in
the House on the adoption of the con-
ference report will not pull the wool
over the eyes Of people who read.
The total increase was 5l.4S, while
the decrease is 1882, which leaves a
net increase of 21.84 over the Diugley
Bill. The big decrease in Schedule
A, chemicals, oils, paints, was only
453. Glue was reduced Is per cent
to help, suppose, the weak-kneed to
stick. Salicyclic acid was reduced so
per cent either, 80 per cent; blue VI
triol and chloroform, 80 per cent, and
borax, so per cent. All these reduc-
tons, with many more Of the same
kind, will not reduce the cost of liv-
ing, and that was what was promised
and what was expected. We have
been handed a stone instead OF bread,
a serpent instead of fish, and a
gold brick, as usual. If any doubt
ing Thomases desire to investigate
the schedules, let them send and get
Senate Documents Nos. 1856 and 1856.
An organized plan, it seems, is be-
ing arranged by some of the Republi-
can leaders, through the country
press, to prepare the way for "the
best tariff ever enacted" and those
who protest-including the ten prog
ressive Republican senatorS-are be,
ing denounced as assistant Demo
Gratis" This attempted bulldozing
will only accentuate the fight and
widen the breach, for the great Mid
die West believes in those same sena-
tors, the heart, soul and honor OF the
Republican party. II this be treason,
make the most of it! fought to
maintain this government .and have
grown gray in the service of my par
ty, but if these Aldrich-Can fel-
lows want a fight, they can get all
they want, a fight to the finish, until
this tariff matter is settled right and
the pledges of our party are carried
out in good faith.
Another idol has turned to clay and
what looked like a brilliant admins,
tration and certain succession has
paled under the Aldrich-C Cannon light.
There are millions Of Republicans
who will not bow down to Baal. The
great heart of the people is in the
right place and another Lincoln will
rise up to lead us out Of the wilder

Costly Business.

Nearly every country editor has a
gasoline engine, hence few of them
own automobiles. In our limited
horizon, we see but two, Ewing
Herbert, of the Hiawatha, Kan,,
World, and Wallace Crossley, Of the
Warrensburg Star. Wallace has just
bought his, so cannot qualify as an
expert witness; but here's Ewing's
experience:
'The interest on an auto is $50 a
year on the thousand. A set of tires
can't last over year, if used. They
cost from so to $40 each. A car de-
preciates one-third in value each
year, SO at the end Of three years a
car is worth just what you can get
out of II. It will cost SIS to 40 a
month to own and run car. "-Cliu-

NAVAL MILITIA BILL
FINDS MANY FRIENDS
Unanimous Endorsement Of the
Delegates to the Annual
Convention.

Washington, Dec. 9.-A bill having
for its object the bringing Of the ma
val militia under the same benefits
and training as the Dick bill made
possible for the National Guard, re-
ceived the unanimous Endorsement of
the Naval Militia association at its
annual convention which began here
today,
Delegates from twenty-three states
were present and listened to sneecheS
by Assistant Secretary Of the Navy
Beekman Winthrop and Commander
Wi1terhalteT chief Of the photographic
service.
Mr.. Winthrop discussed the neces-
sity for an insular naval militia, based
ands and while he was governor Of
Porto Rico. He expressed confidence
that the proposed naval militia bill
could be put through congress at the
present session,
He called attention to the impor-
lance of the navy having an organized
militia Of 10000 men which could be
called upon in time of war to man its
battleships within seventy-twO hours
notice Mr.. Winthrop advocated a ma
val militia bureau in the navy depart
ment.
Commander WHITEWATER discussed
a navy in time of war. He made the
startling statement that before start
ing around the world It was necessary
for the officers of the American battle
ship fleet to collect $4,000 charts from
countries all over the world because Il
was impossible to secure them in this
country.

DEMANDS A LARGE SUM
Paper in the Libel Suit of Lawyer
Heney Against William H.
Croker Not Yet Filed.

New York, Dec. 9.-The libel suit for
a quarter of a million dollars which
Francis J, Heney, special prosecutor
in the San Francisco graft cases, is
said to have begun in New York
against William H. Croker, has not yet
taken definite form a canvass Of the
various courts. federal and state, shows
that the case has not yet been dock
eted.
1t appears that James Beck, former
assistant United States attorney gen.
eral, is acting as attorney for Mr..
Heney. Mr.. Beck has been absent from
the city several days. When seen in
Philadelphia he said no statement could
be made until service had been made
on Mr.. Croker. This is taken to in
dictate that the legal preliminaries are
definitely under way.
William H. Croker was in New
York on a visit until recently, when
he left with the body of his brother
George for San Francisco. Up to the
time OF his departure no word Of the
suit had been heard. It is learned to-
day that a bill of proceedings giving
details on the issues involved win be
filed in behalf of Mr. Heney within the
next few days.
