T.. II. HARTMAN


late Il. II. Harriman's great railway
lines Hike the Union Pacific upon
which is the noted Salt Lake cutoff,
the Southern Pacific, the Oregon
Short-Line &c. appreciate his genius
as a builder and organizer. He Is
considered the most efficient railroad
man which our country has produced
but that distinction might be dis
puted by James j. Hill OF the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific.
Previously We have discussed Har-
rlman and men of his class from the
ethical side and drawn the conclus-
ion that they have made an ire
mediable mistake when they have
wrecked railways, absorbed the pro-
party of stockholders and thereby
unjustly added to their own legiti-
mate requirements. For men OF the
organizing ability, execute force and
business acumen of Gould, Gates,
Morgan. Walsh and Hartman would
be able by legitimate menas to ac-
quire all the money and property
they would ever have any use for.
II these men would confne their
operations TO legitimate channels
they would be among the most prom
incnt of the worlds philanthropists
for they have added enormously TO
the comforts and luxuries of the
people. II is almost luxury now to
travel over the great transcontinen-
cal railways, with the excellently bal
lasted rcad-beds, the palace sleepers
and diners. the fast train service,
the great bridges and tunnels, the
consolidated systems making few
changes necessary, possibly none in
crossing the continent. Then these
magnates have added to their lines
palatial hotels, some Get in magnifi- |
cent forests, as at Monterey and |
Riverside and Santa Barbara, Califor-
mia. and moreover they have steam
ship lines reaching out from San
Francisco and Seattle TO the Orient |
thus bringing the peoples of the
climes OF the east into closer rela-
tion with ourselves and greatly facili-
tating an echange of coTodities.
Whether the transportation mag
nate has not done most In later
times to cater to the desires OF men
and women In an enlightened state
is a question which might be solved
by different persons.
There is Teddy Roosevelt the fight
ter OF the battles of the common
people and the noted hunter. some
would say he is the chiefest man.
There is Edison who has thought
put so many inventions and improv-
ments with regard TO light, power.

most to the sum OF hu-
man happiness.

Of tobacco invoieed as filler have dis
closed a considerable quantity of wrap
per in the shipments. Wrapper tobacco,
which Is leaf tobacco suitable for cigar
wrappers. IS taxed $1.s5 as is filler to-
bacco when mixed or packed with more
than Is per cent. of wrapper tobacco,
but unstemmed filler tobacco with less
than - per cent. of wrapper is taxed
onlv 50 cents
Treasury officials have believed for
some time that the government Is not
getting all the duty that it should re-
ceive on wrapper tobacco and seizures
will be made IN any cases of fraud.
The instructions direct that when an
examination Of packages ordered into
the apprai sers stores shows l per cent.
or more of wrapper in each of two or
more bales examination will be made
Of q further quantity equal to the
original number OF packages desig-
mated for examination. If upon ex-
animation of the additional quantity
two or more bales are found to con-
tain each l per cent. more Of wrapper,
the entire importation will be ex-
amined.

REPUBLICANS
ENDORSE BILL
Continued from Page One.)
Other Legislation.

It IL likely that the legislature will
take advantage Of the special session
to go on record in one or two other
things than the Organic Act. For one
thing, it is proposed that resolution
be passed requesting congress to re-
frain from passing any prohibition law
for the Territory. The resolution will
point out the fact that Hawaii has now
satisfactory liquor law, one pro-
nounced satisfactory by the prohibit
tion workers at the time it was enacted
and which has been fairly well en-
forced. Il is probable that che reso-
luton viii point TO the progress made
in liquor legislation here during the
past several years as an Indication
that the Territory can handle its own
liquor problem.
1t is also very probable that reso-
luton will be introduced asking con
gress to suspend the operation of the
coastwise shipping law as applied to
Hawaii, as requested in the bill pre-
sented by Kuhio i'll congress. The
Legislature has already spoken in favor
of the suspension, but will strengthen
Kuhio S hand by repeating the resolu-
ton.

Question of High Sheriff.

There has been considerable discus
sion concerning that section of the pro
posed bill dealing with the adjustment
Of the office Of high sheriff, the criti-
cism being based principally on mis-
understanding. The general idea seems
to be that the bill cuts out the office,
something which most members do not
approve of. In reality. the bill sim
ply gives the local legislature the priv
ilege Of legislating the Office out of

Because of the mistaken impression.
however, it is not unlikely that that

KILLED TRYING TO
 PROTECT HUSBAND
Mrs. Amos P. DOrrence of Helena Mont. Grapples With Burglar Hotel
 and Is Shot

Hot Springs, July 23 = That Mrs. Amos F Dorrence of Helena, Mont., lost her life in a hand-to-hand struggle with a burglar this morning in an effort to protect the invalid husband at her side, is the final theory is one of the most shocking murders of the year in this city.
 MT. Dorrence came here about eight weeks ago and took up guar ters at the Parker h2h>e. His wife arrived last Tuesday to join him. They retired last night leaving the door to the hall open because of the warm weather.
 At 3 o'clock this morning a man of medium build stole quietly in- to the house, passed several guests rooms of an easy access and entered the room where Mir. and Mrs. Dorrence must have heard the man and grappled with him.
 When the husband awoke his wife and the man were in a hand to-hand struggle. and a moment later a pistol shot rang out and Mrs. DOrrence fell back fatally wounded under the left eye. The pistol was fired at such close range as'to poowder burn the face badly. The invalid husband caught up the head of his stricken wife who died in his arms few minutes later without a state ment.
 The husband has been prostrat- ed since and can throw no fur ther light on the tragedy.
 MT. Dorrence is a coal dealer Ol Helena, Mont,, and his wife was prominent official in the order of The Eastern Star an aux Hilary state organizZatio to the Masonic raternity. Mr Dorrence ie; Mason and Odd Fellow.
 The man who fired the shot es- capped. Other guests saw him pass ing out under the glare of ar electric light on the corner, but too late to get an accurate des- cription of the man. Burglary is the only accepted theory though nothing was taken from the room
 Five arrests have been made ol suspects but there is little prob. ability that the guilty man is among them.

Potts received a number of minor utsb one on the left arm and another on the right wrist warding off the blows Of the prisoner. Then Potts got out Of the passengers compartment locked Gill ill and mounted, the seat with the driver. Gill however managed to open the door and got out whereupon Potts put him formally under arrest. Gil then made a second attack on the officer it is claimed and Potts fired, the one bullet taking ef- feet in the head

 FINISHES WORK
Strongly Recommend Construction of New and Adequate Court House.
 Find 22 Bills.
July Term, 1909

o"lJ iNI III. icOC To the Honorable J. NJ Carter
 Judge Nevada County Circuit COurt: G
 The Grand Jury having com- pleted its labors, beg leave to submit this, its final report: We have examined 46 witnesses and have returned 22 true bills. We have returned ind. d.ctments in all cases where we thought the evidence warranted it.
 The Books of the country of ficers seem to be well kept, We did not go into the county ac- counts but accepted the report of the Commissioners of Accounts made June 3Oth, 1909. They re- port the accounts Of several of the constable's as unsettled. Some of these have been running long time and we hereby recommend that the prosecuting Attorney take immediat te steps by suit or otherwise to collect all accounts due the county by these delin- Quents.
 We find that four constables have not filed the,r reports for the last quarter to wit:- D. A Shell, Emmet township; T. E Blakely. Jackson township; s. M Logan, Parker township and JnO. Hardwick, Union township.
 We inspected the county jail and found things to be well kept and in a sanitary condition. We also inspected the building in the court house yard, now used by the town as calabOOse and found the same to be in a filthy, and unsanitafy cOnd. tiOn. We recommend that it be condemned as a nuisance and removed from the county property.
 We find the court house entire- ly too small and in bad repair, and we believe in an unsafe con- dit!on and we recommend that the county judge take immediate steps towards the erection of a building suitable to the needs of the county.
 We appointed committee to investigate the poor farm, and it reports that the paupers seem to be well kept and cared for and the buildings kept in a clean and sanitary condition, A new yard fence is needed and aslo a cross-fence separating the paup- CTS houses from the main build- ing. The fence around the fazm also needs some repairs.
