WHISKY ELECTION
CALLED FOR FEB. 10.
Vets File Big Petition And Judge
Bailey Refuses Drys Time To
Purge u.

There will be a whisky election in
Lincoln county February 10. Judge
Bailey issued a cali for such an
election on Monday morning, upon
petitions filed by the Wet forces,
containing over 1000 names, il was
said.
Judge Baiiey refused to permit
the Dry forces time IN which to ex-
anime and purge the petitions filed
by the Vets saying that he did not
intend to have such "buying off and
ON" the petitions as was done when
petitions for an election were pre-
scented about month or so ago,
and 80 would take action at once.
The petitions we're filed Friday, so
that the Drys had practically no
opportunity TO 20 over the lists and
sec if every name signed thereto
was legal, bona fide voter, etc.
Many Of the Drys, however, we're
glad TO have the matter settled by
ihc call for an election, so that the
question Of whether the pople OF
lincoln county want saloons re-
opened or not, can be settled for
three years at least, and not have
tie bugaboo Of such a petition hang
ing over their headss constantly.
II is understood that both sides
will GO to work with a vengeance
10 win the victory, aud will perfect
organizations at once. The Drys
are very confident that they will
min as they did about four years
ago. when they defeated saloons by
about 200 majority. The Vets,
however, say that many are disgust
ed with the present system of blind
tigers in the county, and that these
wall vote wet who before voted dry.
There are not many who believe
such Il condition exists sufficiently
strong 20 turn over the 1900 major
ity IN the previous election.

The fact that Ambassador de Ia Barra

.TRUSKETT TO TESTIFY
IN HIS OWN DEFENSE
Kansas Man on Trial for Mur-
der Alleges Worry Over
Oil Leases.

INDEPENDENCE. Kan, March 25.-
Attorneys for the defense in the A. A.
Truskett murder trial today presented a
score of witnesses whose testimony was
calculated to prove the contention that
the defendants mind has been affected by
worry over his Oil business.
When court adjourned tonight not a
witness had testified in support Of the
claim Of the attorneys for Truskett tina,
he shot ]. d. s. Neeley Of Lima Ohio
because he feared his own life was in
danger. It is understood that this phase
of the defense will be taken up mex,
week.
To Speak in His Own Behalf.
Mr.. Truskett, said his attorneys tonight
will probably be called to the stand in
his own behalf some time Monday Al
though he is past seventy years of age,
he is standing the strain of his trial
well. Several former employees of Trus-
kett testified to his queer actions. They
believed his mind to have been affected.
James Winkler, q Caney druggist, told
Of a man named Shaw, who. the witness
said, while in the employ Of the Wichita
Pipe Line Company, asserted his inten-
ton of getting leases on certain Oil lands
held by Truskett. According to Winkler,
Shaw said he would obtain the lands II
it cost him every dollar he could OBJ
tain. Neeley was head Of this company.
Story Of Truskett's Trouble.
The trouble Truskett had about his
lease of oil lands owned by Robert Good
man, an Indian and a minor, was told OF
by several witnesses. According to their
stories, the Indian was kidnapped by
employees Of oil companies controlled by
Neeley and kept away from Truskett un-
til Neeley's companies had obtained from
Goodman leases to his property which
invalidated those held by Truskett. Trus-
kett is said to have lost 5000 in this
deal. which greatly increased his bitter
ness toward Neeley.

severely CRI1|ClSES
THE ANTITRUST LAW
Judge Grosscup Believes It En-
croaches on Powers Of
the Judiciary.

NEW YORK, March 25-Judge Peter
s. Grosscup Of Chicago criticised the
Sherman antitrust law at the Repub-
lican Club today during a discussion of
the question Of the "encroachment of
three coordinate branches of the gov
ernment, one upon the other"
Judge Grosscup thought the Sherman
law was typical OF the laws that en-
croach upon powers Of the judiciary. He
thought that laws should conform to ex-
listing conditions.
He went on to say that the Calvinists
believed that no matter how good a man
was the only way he could escape pun
ishment was by the mercy OF. the Crea-
tor. This was the case with the business
man, and particularly the corporation, he
said.
Through the mercy Of the Department
Of Justice you may never be prosecuted.
The whole power is transferred to wash
ington. It Is no longer what Will they
saw at the court in Buffalo, In New York
or elsewhere? but what will they say IN
Washington" -
President Schurman's Views
President J.. G. Schurman Of Cornell
and David Jayne Hill, ambassador Of the
United States to Germany, also spoke.
DIR. Schurman said that the great change
was that the masses OF the people have
taken hold of the mercy of government
and have seized upon the President as its
organ. >,
he said, 'and we are apt to believe that
public opinion governs I think we have
developed such a system, though 1t was
not the aim of our founders. We have
got to reorganize the evolution that has
taken place and adjust ourselves to It !"
Ambassador Hill spoke in q similar vein.
II would say we are living under laws
adopted, after deliberation, by the Amer
ican people," he said.

Business Man Will Probably Be Ap-
pointed to Succeed Re-
publican Politician.

President Tafts recent conference with
Baron Uchida- the Japanese aanbossa-
dor. has borne excellent results, most
gratifying to the administration. The
President yesterday received through the
Japanese embassy the following cable
message from the Emperor Of Japan:
ITO the President Of the United States Of
America:
II was greatly pleased to receive your
very kind message conveyed to me
through my ambassador in Washington.
and l thank you for It. 1 was already
well convinced that you had given no
credence to the false and wicked reports
regarding Japan, but it was especially q
source Of profound satisfaction to me to
receive from you the assurance that the
relations of amity and good understand
ing between our two countries were
never better or more cordial than at this
time. am more happy to be able en-
tirely to reciprocate that assurance.
'MUTSUH1TO."
The message from the emperor is the
response to the friendly assurances sent
him by the President few days ago.
after conference with Baron Uchida.
and Mr.. Taft believes that the exchange
of cordial feelings has cleared up all the
talk about Japan and the United States
getting into trouble with each other.
Old-Time Politician Resigns.
George wanamaker, appraiser Of the
port Of New. York. has sent his resigna-
ton to President Taft and Secretary
Macveagh and his successor will soon be
selected. Mr.. Wanamaker has for years
belonged to the regular republican organ
iaztion in New York. being lone Of the
boys and a district leader Of prominence.
He stood by Roosevelt in the last state
election, but did so reluctantly. His SYM
pathy has always been with the organiza-
ton, with which he has worked since the
early days Of the late Senator Platt
It is officially stated that Wanamaker' s
resignation was voluntary, but It has
been known for some time that the ad-
ministration would prefer a business man
as appraiser. Wanamaker had never had
q business training suitable to the work
Of appraiser, and the aim OF the admins
internal revenue service, the postal serv-
ice and all branches Of the government
coming In contact with the business
world just ais much on business footings
as private enterprises. Collector Loeb In
New York has given q most satisfactory
business administration and the Presi-
dent desires a man Of the same stamp
for appraiser, SO that all parts OF the
customs service may pull together. Secre-
tary MacVeagh Is turning the customs
service into a business institution at all
ports as fast as he can do so.
President Taft yesterday received an
invitation to attend the anniversary cele-
bration of the 1st Regiment, National
Guard Of Pennsylvania, at Philadelphia,
to be held at an early date He does not
