BIG SENSATION IN GERMANY
Caused by Latest Speech of Emperor
William.

Berlin, Aug. 27.-The speech dellf-
cred by Emperor William of Germany
before the provincial banquet at Koe-
nigsberg, in which he reiterated and
emphasized his belief in the divine
mandate by which he rules, referred
to the Prussian crown as bestowed by
Gods grace and not by parliament's
or peoples assemblies, and laid a
lance against the present movement
for woman suffrage, is the political
sensation of the hour.
The leading organs of the German
press devote extended comment to 1t,
generally criticising the emperor's ut
terances, and there are indications
that the discourse will have deep
political effect upon the country, near
ly all the Berlin papers discussing the
subject in connection with the pollt-
ical crisis of November, 1908, when
the publication by the London Daily
Telegraph Of an interview with the
emperor aroused a storm against the
uncontrolled public speaking of the
emperor.

DOZEN DIE IN WRECK
Disaster on Grand Trunk Road
Near Durand, Mich,

Durand, Mich, Aug. 26.-Probably
dozen persons were killed and eight
injured, three probably fatally, when
Grand Trunk train No. crashed into
the rear of train No. IA, stalled on the
track two miles east of Durand.
DR.. Fair of Durand, surgeon of the
railroad company, asserts that the
charred bones so far recovered should
represent about six persons. 1t is be-
lieved that the bodies are those of
four women, one child and one man.
The engine Of No. 4 plowed it's way
three-quarters of the way through the
sleeping car Nebraska, the last car in
train No. IA, catching eighteen per-
sons asleep in the coach. The firebox
of the colliding engine then dropped
out and the death coach in few min
utes was blazing from end to end.
AS the flames ate their way through
the splintered timbers of the coach
the cries of the injured ceased and the
odor of burning flesh deferred the pas
sengers of the unchanged cars and
the farmers who had hurried from
their homes to assist in the work Of
rescue
The crew of No. IA, except the en-
gineer and fireman, are said to have
been hired during the recent strike
and retained after the settlement.

RAIN INSURANCE POPULAR.

Open Air Festival Promoters Whiting
ly Pay High Premiums. Z
To pray for rain has long been GUS
tomary in rural communities, but to
take out insurance against rain is a
feature Of modern civilization which
keeps pace with the aeroplane and the
last word In automobiles. This type
of insurance is not extremely rare
nowadays.
The other day the firemen of Bask-
ing Ridge, N. j., succeeded in getting
5000 insurance for a premium Of 500
that it would not rain during their car
nival The policy was got from Lloyd's
Of London
Insurance is popular with the pro-
motors Of open air festivals Of various
kinds, especially of aviation meets, say
the insurance men. It is considered a
safeguard against slim gate receipts in
stormy weather, and the men who have
control of the enterprises do not pro-
test against the high premiums charg-
ed One aviation meet management
offered to pay $4,000 for insurance Of
100000 against rain.
OF course a few drops Of water do
not constitute rain in the insurance
sense, and the risk is not quite 50 spec
ulative as it appears at first. In order
to collect on the policy, loss must be
proved, just as in fire insurance.

Death Reports Vary Widely.

Reports received by Supervisor Wei
gle at Wallace concerning the number
of dead forest employees did not agree
with that obtained at Missoula. The
reports to Wallace say that of Ranger
HOllingshead's sixty men on Big creek
fourteen bodies have been found and
the other men are missing. Of sixty
0men on Setter creek forty-eight bod
les have been found and five men are
missing. These siXty-tWo deaths Of
forest employees, added to the twenty
one deaths at the Bullion mine and
on the Big fork Of the Occur d'Alene
and the deaths in Montana and vari-
.ous Idaho creeks, would bring the to-
tai number of deaths in the service up
to 100.
There is a dearth of news from the
st. Joe valley, where the fires are rag
ing uncontrolled. Circumstantial &C.
counts Of the death Of lis men in four
parties were brought to Spokane and
Tekoa by survivors. The survivors
say that 600 men we're working on Big

ployed there is sixty. Joseph B. Hahn

GREETED AS OLD COMRADE
Roosevelt Given Rousing Reception at
Cheyenne, Wyo.


Cheyenne, Wyo.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Aug. 2S.-Colonel
Roosevelt got realistic touch of the
fast vanishing wild and woolly West"
when he was the guest of honor at
the closing days exercises of the from
tier day celebration, closing a solid
week of cowboy excitement such as
even Cheyenne never before wit
messed.
The thousands who gathered at the
station to meet the Roosevelt special
train did not come to greet a former
president of the United States. They
came to cheer Theodore Roosevelt, the
coWman who ran a brand on the Lit
tie Missouri years ago; the former
broncho "peeler' and Dakota deputy
sheriff, and to greet him as a comrade
of the range and extend him typical
Western welcome.
For twelve hours, with scarcely a
break for rest, the colonel was in the
hands Of several thousand hilarious
cowboys-real "punchers," CARRIED in
the silk neckerchiefs, leather chaps
and wristlets and all the other pictur-
esque accouterments of the typical
plainsmen. .=t.~..

FIRES CAN BE PREVENTED
Clifford Pinchot Says Loss Is Price Of
Unpreparedness.

Washington, Aug. 27.-Gifford Pin
chot of the National Conservation as
ISOLATION and former head of the gov
eminent forest service, in statement,
holds that the loss of property and
life in the recent and present forest
fires was unnecessary.
The disastrous results, he said, are
-traceable to the unpreparedness to
deal with the fire situation. He scores
members of congress who have op-
posed appropriations for the proper
equipment of forest rangers and in
that connection names Senator Hey
burn of Idaho, whose home town, Wal
lace, Ida, suffered serious loss; Sena-
tor Carter Of Montana and Representa-
tive Mondell of Wyoming.

Widows Desert State to Escape
Inheritance Tax.
RATE IS CALLED RUlNOUs,
Two Per Cent Levied by Law on Ali
Fortunes, Irrespective of Size-Many
Legatees Depart For Other Common
weaIths Where Widows Incomes Are
Not Harassed.

Widows are leaving Iowa, and spin
sters are rejoicing at the prospect Of
the state becoming Widowless. Spin
sters who had abandoned hope Of
marital felicity are manifestly perking
up. The day is not yet lost.
The reason for it all is not that men
don't die nor the divorce mills fail to
grind, but because heavy penalty de-
wolves upon the Iowa woman who once
has entered the realm of matrimony
and strives afterWard to live with
out it.
1t is all because of the hateful tax
law, which DEGREES that widows must
pay per cent tax on all the moneys
and credits left them by the last will
and testament Of the late deceased.
1t has been figured out that at the
present rate of departure of widows
from the state it will be but few
short years until Iowa has no charm
ing widows.
Law Considered Unjust.
Yet when one stops to think that
the widow who is left small fortune
by the will Of her husband is COM
PEELED to pay 2 per cent tax on that
fortune, which is often just enough to
carry her in comfort to the end of her
days, while rich men who know all
the tricks and devices Of tax lodging
and who invest their moneys outside
Of the state escape the law, there
comes feeling to them that possibly
the law is unjust.
The question has a financial side as
| well, phase which actually affects
interest rates. Most Of those widows
| who are left money in any amount
usually lend it out on good farm mort
| cages. When they discover that while
| they are lending the money at small
rate Of interest they must pay pei
cent Of it back in taxes they begin tt
! get wise and either send the money ou
of the state.for investment or remove
from the state to those states where
no such law is on the statute books.
Increases Interest Rates.
| Ine1r removal OF the investment out
side Of the state reduces the loan com
| petition, and the result is that interes
rates advance because there is not th
money to lend that there was whel
this money was kept in the state ant
loaned out.
An interesting case in point is tina
Of a Cedar Rapids widow who was lef
moneys and credits to the amount O
$1S5,OOO. She liked Cedar Rapids an
had hoped to spend her remainin
days in the old home there, enjoyin
the income from her little fortune
But she was a practical woman a
well, and when at the end Of the frs
year she found that she must pay a
per cent tax on her little fortune SD
simply pulled up stakes and went
New York city, never to return
Iowa to live.
The case is but one Of dozens whic
occur every year.

And at every town the Roosevelt
grin has been greeted with shouts of:

Teddy, we're with you.'
Roosevelt has made no reply to the
shouts so far, but the smile widens a
