The Same Answer to Many
Questions.

| am asked quite often, either by
personal inquiry or by letter, when
the next apportionment Of school
money will be made. | cannot
say just when it shall be made, but
it will be soon after the Sheriff
makes the Spring turnover. This
will be made about the middle of
this month. Then the apportion-
ment will be about the twentieth or
little after AS 80 how much
money you will receive | cannot
say, but you are sure of 100000
from the county fund this school
year. Ask YOU clerk how much
he has received, this school year,
subtract that from 100000 and that
will tell you how much you are
still to receive. This does not APP
ply to school districts No. 1912
&-47, for each OF these will receive
more than the S300.00. 1t is quite
certain that the districts will not
get all Of the $4,000 at the spring
apportionmcnt, but you will get it,
what there is lacking, in October,
If the taxes were all paid in now,
you would get all the money now,
but they are not so the districts
will have to wait, for part at
least. Section 25 of the school
laws for 1909 will explain it to you.
| shall trust that all who are in
tcrested will understand.
Very truly,

TO DEFINE CONSPIRACY.
U. S. Supreme Court About to Pass
Upon the Question.

Washington, Nov. 10.-The interpre-
tation of the Sherman antitrust law
as a means of administering criminal
punishment of conspiracy in restraint
of interstate commerce came today
before the supreme court of the
United States for oral argument. 1t
is expected the determination of the
questions involved may have some
bearing on the dissolution proceeding
under the same law against the Stand
ard Oil and Tobacco corporations now
awaiting argument before the same
court.
The question arose in the indictment
Of Gustav E Kissel of New York and
T. B. Harmed of Philadelphia, together
with the American Sugar Refining
company and others on a charge of
conspiracy to drive the Pennsylvania
Sugar Refining company out of bust
ness in violation of the Sherman anti
trust law. The indictment, found in
1909, charged that the conspiracy was
entered into in 1908.
KisseI and Harmed pleaded that the
statute of limitations forbade their
prosecution and the circuit court of
the United States for the southern dis
trict sustained that objection to the in
dictment.
The case came to the supreme court
largely on a dispute as to what "con-
spiracy' as referred to in the Sherman
antitrust law means.

CALL A MASS MEETING.
Mexicans Planning a Boycott Against
Everything American.

Mexico City, Nov 1O.-In an inter-
view published today Ambassador Will
son says he was greatly shocked at the
anti-American spirit of the mob, which
did damage to Mexico's reputation as
a lover of peace.
The ambassador charges that the po-
lice stood by idly while the stars and
stripes were being insulted but he adds
that he does not hold the Mexican gov
eminent responsible for the outrage nor
does he doubt that the representations
which he made will receive prompt
consideration. Mr.. Wilson made a de-
tailed report to Washington, in the
course of which he states that the
American goods and stores employing
from acts that might embarrass an al
ready difficult situation.
Ell Pals today makes a suggestion
that a boycott be instituted against
American gods and stores employing
Americans and publishes a call for d
mass meeting next Sunday for the pur-
pose of drafting a form of boycott and
arranging for its circulation.

| Uncle Sam
Ambassador De La Barra called al
the state department about noon but
he said he had no information from
his government regarding the anti
American demonstration in the City
of Mexico.
The two governments are in this
position: If the state department here
finds that Ambassador Wilson'S reports
are justified, a polite request must be
made on Mexico for an explanation OF
, regret for the demonstration and also
for suitable PREPARATION. if any damage
has been suffered by Americans.
On the other hand, the Mexican
government must look to the state de-
partment for a similar explanation in
the case of Antonio Rodriguez, the
Mexican who is reported to have beer
burned at the stake by a mob OF

St Louis. Nov. 1O.-The official
count probably will be required to de-

result is still in doubt, with both sides
claiming victory.

by from 5000 to 5000 plurality. The
Republicans claim the official count

With only three-fourths of the pre-
cincts in the state heard from, the anti

Missouri election was the exceptional
plurality for the Republican ticket in
st. Louis. The average is now near. 30. =
