AMBER MEAD SALE
STOPPER IN V|NITA
On Receipt Of Report Of Test County
Attorney Files Injunction Against
Maddox & creekmore.

There is only grief among the dis
pensers Of Amber Mead, that liquid
joy that for some days has been sold
in Vinita as a substitute for beer.
County Attorney Brady has received
a report from the state chemist on
the amount Of alcohol contained in
Amber Mead and Brew Malt. The test
showed the former to contain from two
to five per cent alcohol-the highest
test being 5.5S per cent. On Brew
Malt the test showed that beverage to
contain from 66 to / per cent alcohol.
The state prohibition law prohibits
the sale of all beverages containing
more than one half of one per cent
alcohol, and the county attorney inS
mediately secured a temporary in
junction against Maddox & Creekmore.
There is already an injunction stand
ing against the other places in the
city, where these beverages have been
sold and they with the Maddox e.
Creekmore place win be closed this
afternoon by the sheriff's force.

Protected Industries are
Fighting Organized Labor

1907, worlxingmen were forced into
more strikes by insufficient wages
with which to meet increased living
expenses, than in the entire previous
history of unionism. In the sixteen
years previous to 1897, when the Ding
law went into effect, 1903 strikes
were called, while but eight years be-
Seen 1897 and 1905 the number O
strikes reached 1864 The number
Of strikes per annum previous to 1897
was 1850, while under the advanced
rates of the, Dingley tariff the average
number was 2,459. In the period be-
tween 1881 and 1905, which was spec
tally noted for protective tariff propa-
ganda, 36,757 strikes were called, af
fecting 1S1, ,4O7 establishments. OF the
total number of strikes, 47.94 per cent
succeeded, 1928 succeeded in part, and
S6.7S failed. Between 1881 and 1905
there We're also 1916 lockouts, of
which 716 occurred under Diugleyism.

Washington. Aug. els high pro-
lection friend of organized labor
From the remarks of Senator Aid
rich the affirmative would be inferred,
as his stock excuse for advertising
rates that would boost the cost of Iiy-
ing was that he was protecting" the
American workingman.
In contrast to these assurances, re-
ports are coming from the labor
unions that the protected industries
are now engaged in crushing organ
lied labor in all parts of the United
States.
The union man has all but disap-
peared from the great plants of the
United States Steel corporation. tho
American Tobacco company, the sugar
trust Cramp shipbulding yards, and
other of the principal beneficiaries Of
high tariff rates. Some unions have
reported recently that their trust en-
ployers are imposing on them so they
will strike.
The United States Steel Corpora
ton only recently raised the flag of
Nothing to arbitratei" in its war on
the tin plate workers, as did Carnegie
and Pullman nearly a generation ago.
It enwalled its mills and strung
barbed wire charged with electricity,
and employed regiments of private
police and strikebreakers and armed
them to the teeth.
AS the American union men go from
the mills and shops of the big tariff
protected industries, 5 and 10 hour
workdays give way to IL hour shifts
and as the native help steps out the
freshly imported Hungarians and
Slavs step in. That is why the av-
erage wage of workers in the highly
protected cotton industry is but 81
cents day.
ssThe unions have practically dis
appeared from the trusts" says Prof.
John r. Commons, of the University
of Wisconsin, who has devoted exten-
sive time to the study of the subject,
and are disappearing from the large
corporation as they grew large
enough to specialize minutely their
labor. The organized worlKmen are
found in the small establishments like
the building trades or the fringe of
Independents on the skirts Of thel
trusts; on the railways where skill
and responsibility are not yet dis
placed by division of labor; in the
mines where strike breakers cannot
be shipped in; on the docks. and
other places where they hold STRAIT
egic position"

leyism. between the period of 1897 and

HEARD HERE TO-DAY
Review Of the Gould-Dodson-FaIIis
Row at Bluejacket in Justice
Court.

Blueiacket had large represen-
tation here this morning in the Dod-
son-Gould-Fallis case that has disturb
ed the equanimity in that ordinarily
peaceful community
The case is the outgrowth of a fight
between A. G. Gould and Roy Dodson
in which the former is said to have
been considerably worsted. The orig
inal trouble is said to have started
over the sale of some land by A. G.
Gould. The trouble grew worse un-
til the personal encounter followed.
]. R. Falls got mixed up in the af-
fair, it is said by keeping others from
interfering with the iistic combatants.

Meredith this morning and Dodson
was fined on two charges. He was
fined $25, on the charge of carrying
weapons, and $40 on the charge Of as
sault and battery. Falls was fined

Washington. D. O., Aug. 6.-The tar
lift has been revised, and the extra
ordinary session of congress has been
brought to a close. Both houses adj
iourned sire die officially at 6 o'clock
last night.
The Payne tariff bill, as passed by
both houses. mas been signed by the
president, and today becomes an i'm
portant part Of the law Of the land.
President Taft last night gave out a
statement embodying his views of the
new tarif act, which he designates Of
ficially as the Payne bill,' in accord
ance with past custom of giving first
recognition to the framer of the meas
ure in the house of representatives.
The president declares that while
the bill is not perfect by any means,
nor "a complete compliance with prom
ises made, strictly interpreted" it is
nevertheless a sincere effort on the part
of the party to make a downward re-
vision and to comply with the promises
OF the platform.
President Taft arrived at the capi-
tai at 4:45 p. m, and entered the room
set aside for the occupation of the
president on the concluding day Of
session of congress. There was a
constant procession Of handshaking
statemen through the presidents
room from the time of his arrival until
his departure at $3.50 o'clock.
Just as the hands of the gold clock
in the presidents room reached six
minutes past 5, the Payne tariff bill, as
the measure will be known, was laid
before the president He picked up
pen supplied by Chairman Payne Of
the house ways and means committee,

FOUND DEAD BODY IN
RAILROAD WATER TANK

Stigler, Okla. Aug. 6.-An inquest
was held last night at San Bois over
the body Of a man found by the
watchman Of the Canadian river
bridge in water tank of the Midland
Valley railroad five miles east Of San
Bois and eight miles west Of this
city

found is thirty feet from the ground.
Details of the finding of the mans
body are meagre as there is no tele'
phone or telegraphic communication
with San Bois. 1t is the belief here,
however, that the man was murder
ed and then thrown into the water

MINORITY LEADER
ISSUES STATEMENT
says there is No Truth in Report
That Absence Of Democrats Pre-
vented Defeat of Bill.
BY Associated Press.

Washington, d. c., Aug. 6. - Con
gresham Champ Clark, of Missouri,
today, gave out statement regarding
the course of the democrats of the
house, in connection with the consid-
GRAFTON Of the tariff bill by the demo-
cratic members.
Some newspapers" he said, either
through carelessness or malice, have
gone so far as to say that the absence
of some of the democrats in the house
prevented the defeat of the conference
report on the tariff bill. There is not
syllable Of truth in this report, and
to so charge is either unadulterated
malice or criminal negligence. Many
newspapers are trying to make it ap-
pear that the Payne-Aldrich? ?Smoot
bill is a revision downward. This is
not so. The average rate is about two
per cent higher than provided by the
Dingley BIZ and when the maximum
goes into effect. it will be twenty-sev-
en- per cent higher"

8 TO IS YEARS IS
SENTENCE FOR HAMS
Captain Convicted Of Killing w. e.
Annis Gets Indeferminafe =
Term in Prison.
JUDGE DENIES A NEW TRIAL
Defendant Seems Overcome by
Courts Words and Father and
Brother Deeply Affected.

Capt Peter C. Hains, Jr., U. S. A.,
convicted of manslaughter in the first
degree for killing William E. Annis
at the Bayside Yacht Club last Au-
gust, was sentenced Monday by Justice
Garretson in the Supreme Court In
Flushing, l.. l., to an indeterminate
sentence of not less than eight years,
nor more than sixteen years, hard
labor in States prison.
John F. Mcintyre, counsel for the de
PENDANT, made the usual motion for a
new trial on the ground that the YER
dict was against the weight of evil
dence and also contrary to law. JUS
Mr.. Mcintyre then raised the point of
jurisdiction of the Supreme Court over
the defendant, contending that he had
never been released from jurisdiction
of the federal government and there
fore the case was not properly before
the court Mr. Mcintyre also stated
that DR.. Brush, who had been an ex-
pert witness for the defense. had ex
amined Capt Hams since he was con-
victed and found him insane. Justice
to that effect before the court and he
declined to consider the motion in re-
gard to jurisdiction.
The court clerk then instructed Capt
Hams to come to the bar and proceed
ed to ask him the formal questions put

prisoner seemed dazed and seemed to
have some difficulty in understanding
the questions Lawyers Mcintyre and
Young of the defense stood on either
side of Capt Hams and assisted him
in answering the questions.of the court
clerk
Referring to the nature of the case
the court said that Capt Hams had
been indicted for murder in the first
degree, the severest crime against So
ciety, and, although there had been
great deal of sympathy injected into
the case, the law did not allow a man
to punish another for wrong he had
suffered or to wreak vengeance on the
man who had wronged him.
After Justice Garretson had imposed
the sentence Capt. Hams sat down and
dropped his head on the table before
him. He seemed overcome with emo
ton for few moments, but soon re-
covered himself and sat upright, star
ing at the court Gen Hams the de-
PENDANTS father, and Maj. John Pow
ers Hams, who were in court, display
ed much emotion. Immediately after
for stay of sentence for few days
to take an appeal Justice Garretson
said the case would take the usual
course, and gave the defense twenty
four hours in which to file an appeal.

Taken in New York,


The big stock and grain house OF
Tracy & Co., with two Chicago Offices,
three Offices in New York, and
branches in five other cities, went into
the hands of receiver late Monday
afternoon. A rough estimate made by
attorneys for various creditors placed
the liabilities as $f.250.OO0. with assets
Of 100000. although the amounts
named il the petition were only ST.
100000 and s250,0O0 respectively.
William w Tracy. formerly president
of the Lincoln Park board in Chicago
anil well-known Iliinoisan. was head
of the company.
Unfortunate ventures in the taxicab
business in New York and Chicago and
hard squeeze in the recent grain cor
ner engineered by James A. Patten
were ascribed as tae chief causes of
the failure in dispatches from New
York, where the formal court action
was taken. Although no announce.
ment of the exact cause OF the failure
was made by E. A Benedict, the re-
ceiver, he said he understood money
lost in taxicab promotions figured in
the outside ventures. The firm is n

and the New York Stock Exchange.
