Out OF A Breakfast

An original specimen of hobo was
taken into custody by Officer McElroy
near the B. & o. station at about ten
thirty Wednesday morning. The man
had evidently dfsembarked from a
freight train and was under the in
fiuence of liquor when he went into
the Virginia lunch room east of the
depot and ordered his breakfast. The
meal was served to the man and after
eating all he wanted, started for the
door. He was Immediately intercept
ed by the proprietor, who demanded
the money for the food which he had
eaten. The tramp informed him that
he would not pay anything and that
all he wanted was his breakfast. The
proprietor of the restaurant immed-
lately called the police and the man
was taken to the county Jail in the
patrol wagon.

capable, without help, of maintaining
order. A continuance of this condi-
ton would disgrace the state and in
fict grievous injuries on its capital

surely rests somewhere, the menace
of the situation is beyond question.
And l am unwilling to let lawless
violence run unchecked for the lack
of sufficient force to put 1t down,

recruited and reorganized and the
sheriff is summoning the men of the
county to uphold the public author

the local authorities should have

true. Let them be taken now with

WARM TIMES ARE EXPECTED
Cummins and DoIIiver to Stump Iowa
for Control of State Convention.

Des Moines, April 1.-THE success
full outcome of the Indiana convention
last Tuesday has created tremendous
enthusiasm among Iowa progressives,
with the result a monster progressive
meeting, to be held in Des Moines in
the near future, is being discussed.
There is a close relation between
the situations in Iowa and Indiana.
Senators Dolliver and Cummins both
fought the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill, as
did Senator Beveridge. and both are
looking to the state convention, which
will be held in Des Moines Aug. 3, for
endorsement of their attitude. Both
are anxious the convention shall not
only ignore the tariff law, but declare
for lower tariff.
Warm times may be expected in
Iowa when Senators Dolliver and Cum
Minis reach here to stump the state
for the control of the next state con-
vention.

Solicitor General Bowers has been
mentioned prominently for the va
cancy and now the question arises as
to whether he would be eligible to sit
in the tobacco and oil cases. He did
not participate in the argument of
these cases, as did Attorney General
Wickersham, but opinion is divided as
to whether it would be in good form
for him to sit in judgment, because of
his advisory position in the depart
ment of justice.
How the court was divided in re-
gard to the decision in these cases Is
still as much mystery as before the
assignment of the cases for reargu.
ment. 1t is believed, however, that
the court was evenly divided, or al
most so, and that it probably was
loath to give to the country decision
which was not supported by major
ity of full court. Such a majority
would be five members.

SLEEPING CAR KAIE IUv mum
Interstate Commerce Commission Cuts
the Price Of Berths.

st. Paul, April 12.-As a result OF
the complaints filed nearly three years
ago by two Twin City men, George S.
Lotus and James Manahan, against
the sleeping car charges of the Pull
man company, the interstate COM
merce commission, according to dis
patch received from Washington, has
ruled that berth rates must be low
cred materially and makes specific re-
ductions between st. Paul and the
coast, as well as other Northwest
points. The ruling also holds that 1t
is unjust and unreasonable" for the
company to charge equally for upper
and lower berths.
The commission ruled that the pres
ent Pullman rate Of $12 from st. Paul
to the Pacific coast was too high and
ordered it reduced to $40. The pres
ent rate of s12 for an upper berth is
reduced to $3.50.
A short nights journey. the COM
mission holds, should not carry rate
of more than $3.50 for lower berth
and $1.10 for an upper. The rate OF
81 which the company has maintained
from st. Paul to Fargo, N. D., 242
miles, is ordered reduced accordingly.
The prevailing upper berth rate OF
$3.50 is reduced to $1.10 between st.
Paul and Superior, Wis.,. and the upper
berth rate between st. Paul and Grand
Forks is reduced from 81 to $1.50. The
rates Dreyailing are approved for
lower berths.

NOTHING TO GIVE OUT
Ex-President and Deposed Chief For
ester Take a Two-Hour Stroll, but
Refuse to DivuIge the Subjects Dis
cussed During That Time-Chance
Remark Indicates That Roosevelt
Has Not Vet Repudated Taft.

Porto Maurizio, Italy, April 12.-
Clifford Pinchot, former chief forester
of the United States, arrived unex.
pectedly in Porto Maurizio and after
few hours sleep at the Palace ho-
tel went to the villa of Miss Carew,
where he was given an enthusiastic
greeting by Colonel Roosevelt.
Hello, Clifford! Well, this is fine!"
shouted the colonel, who had not ex-
pected to see Pinchot until much
later in the day.
Hello, Teddy!" responded Pinchot,
while the men were still several
PAGES apart.
And then they clasped hands like
long lost brothers.
1t was almost case of falling into
each others arms.
Pinchot was hustled inside the
house and the two reappeared in a
few minutes and departed on a walk
ing trip to the mountains.
Their stroll lasted two hours and If
the same eagerness that marked their
conversation at the start of the stroll
was maintained throughout everything
that has taken place during the last
year in America was pretty thorough
ly covered.
"Nothing to Give Out"
To the correspondents inquiries
fired after the pair returned to the
villa there was an announcement OF
nothing to. give out"
1t is fair to assume, however, that
Pinchot made full report to the ex
president of what he believes to be
Secretary Ballinger's attempt to re
verse Roosevelt's conservation policy
and that the insurgent movement that
has developed in the Republican ranks
under President Taft's administration
furnishes fruitful topic of discussion
Pinchot let fall one remark that in
dicated that Roosevelt has not yet
repudiated Taft. He said Roosevelt
was surprised he had received no per
sonal message from Taft or from any
member of Taft's official family.
Roosevelt expressed to Pinchot his
desire to hear the full text of the va
rious controversies from the admins
tration's point of view.
Pinchot reiterated the statement
