THE GREAT RACE TO HARBOUR
He Drove His Car 500 Miles at a
Greater Speed Than Any Man
Ever Before Attained.

Indianapolis, Indina.-Nearly 1OO,-
900 persons from every state in the
Union saw 40 of the most intrepid
automobile drivers in the country
Court death on the A. A. U. saucer
shaped indianapolis speedway.
After all it was Harroun, the quiet,
self contained little man who rarely
has a word to say, who really de-
served the victory that was his aiter
six hours, 4 minutes and 8 seconds
of racing. He drove a mastery race.
His car was shaped like a wasp and
was painted the colors of wasp
black and yellow. Harroun carried
no mechanican with him. He drove
the entire race with the exception OF
80 miles. Then he was relieved. He
has the satisfaction of knowing that
he went more miles at high rate OF
speed than any human being has ever
travelled any where in any kind of
a mechanical contrivance. Railroad
trains have never sustained a speed
of rs miles an hour for 900 miles;
neither have aeroplanes. The auto
mobile is the only thing made by the
hand Of man that has.

ANOTHER INDIAN CONGRESS
Governors of Five Civilized Tribes
Will Meet at Hugo, Ok, June 20
to Discuss Tribal Business.

Muskogee, Oklahoma.-The COVER
nors of the five civilized tribes of In
dams who participated in the memor-
able Indian congress here last year,
which was attended by over 10000
redskins, will gather around the camp
fire at Hugo, Ok, on June 20 and 81.
The convention will be conducted in
the manner of Indian councils and
the chief purpose of the gathering is
to plan the final disposition of tribal
property, mineral and timber lands.
The question of school, federal pro-
hibition, taxes and per capita pay
ment will also be taken up.
The department of the interior will
be represented. The subject of timber
lands is especially important, as is
the matter of discontinuing all the
Indian schools except the industrial
feature.

SUIT TO GUST KANSAS MAYOR
ACTION COMMENCED AGAINST
LEAVENWORTH OFFICIALS.
Attorney General Charges Failure to
Suppress Saloons-Places Licensed
Under Fine System.

Topeka, Kansas-Ouster proceed
ings against Mayor Albert Doege and
j. T. Taylor, chief of police of Leav-
enworth, were instituted in the su-
preme court by John Dawson, attor-
ney general. The two Leavenworth
officials are charged to have been
derelict in their duties in failing to
suppress the saloons and resorts in
Leavenworth; in failing to notify the
county attorney of violations of the
prohibitory law; and in assisting in
carrying out contracts and agree
ments whereby resorts are licensed
by means of the fines system.
The custer proceedings are the first
to be brought under the Brewster
custer act, passed by the last legis-
lature. The attorney general has not
decided whether he will ask for the
suspension of the two men from their
offices pending the trial of the suits,
as may be asked under the law. An
assistant attorney general, j. P. Cole
man, was sent to Leavenworth last
week to help in joint prosecutions.
He came back in a hurry and his re-
mark to his chief was: "They don't
need help over there. What is needed
is for the slate to be wiped clean and
new men put on the job"
The petition asserts that from 40
to rs men and women are engaged in
conductin places where liquor is
sold. The attorney general declares
that the joints are not only being
allowed to run wherever a saloon man
wanted to start one, but these Of
ficials would not give the least help
to the county attorney to stop the vio-
lations.

END TRUSTS SAID MADISON
THE SUPREME COURT WAS TOO
LENlENT WITH LAWBREAkERS.
The Decision Finds officers Guilty
and Attorney General Should
Begin Prosecutions.

Washington, D. C.-Seize every
pound of tobacco and every gallon OF
OIL that gets into interstate com.
merce. That is the way to break up
the tobacco and the oil trusts, e. H.
Madison, representative from the Sew.
eneh Kansas district, said, and such
procedure is possible. Discussing
the two recent decisions of the su.
preme court, Judge Madison said:
rThe things which friends of the en-
forcement of the, Sherman antitrust
law will most regret about the Stand
ard Oil and tobacco trust decisions Is
the failure of the supreme court to
hand down a decree effectually and at
once ending the combinations which
1t denounces as unlawful in unmeas-
far as the exercise Of it's injunctive
powers is concerned, practically
licenses those combinations to con-
tinue their unlawful combination for
six months Such a judgment will not
discourage them, but simply lend
hope that in that period they may
devise schemes that will enable them
to evade the law for another long
period. That particularly will apply
to the Standard Oil company, upon
which the serveilance of the court is
removed during this period. The cir
cult court ordered the dissolution OF
the trust in 80 days and until dis
solved it was enjoined from engaging
in interstate commerce. That sort
of decree had real teeth in it, II it
had been upheld Dy the supreme court
the dissolution would have occurred
by now and the trust would have un-
derstood - was really under the con-
demnation of the law. Dealing with
trust by gentle taps on the wrist will
accomplish nothing.
"There is a great opportunity be-
fore Attorney General Wickersham,
the greatest that has come to any at
torney general since the enactment of
the Sherman law. The highest court
in the land has held that the actions
of John D. and William Rockefeller
and their associates and H. B. Duke,
T. E. Ryan and their associates were
clearly in violation of law. Those
still alive can be and should be prose-
cuted."

BRYAN FORCES ARE DEFEATED
The Democratic Caucus Voted Against
Free Wool and for Modification
Of Present Duty.

Washington, D. c. Democratic
members of the house of representa-
tives administered to William Jen'
nings Bryan stinging rebuke for his
interference with their legislative
plans and his demand for free raw
wool.
BY a unanimous vote, the Under
wood bill, carrying revenue tariff on
wool, was endorsed.
This action followed endorsement
Of a resolution declaring it the sense
the Democrats that they favor free
raw wool as a party principle but the
exigencies of the government treasury
due to Republican extravaganza, made
it necessary to carry revenue duty
on raw wool.

PronerIX Thankful.

Clark Howell of Atlanta tells OF
the sad case of an elderly darky IN
Georgia, charged with the theft OF
some chickens. The negro had the
misfortune to be defended by young
and inexperienced attorney, although
it is doubtful whether any one could
have secured his acquittal. the COM
mission of the crime having been
proved beyond all doubt. The darky
received a pretty severe sentence.

dered by the United States
Senate.

Washington, D. CA new in
vestigation of the Lorimer case was
ordered. The result was a victory
for senatorial dignity and senatorial
courtesy over insurgency, but it was
not won without injury to the feelings
of the victors. The Martin resolu-
ton to submit the inquiry to the COM
mittee on privileges and elections was
adopted. That is the committee which
whitewashed Lorimer at the last ses-
sion. Senator LaFollette and the in
surgents, assisted by several Demo
Gratis, tried to have the investigation
put in the hands of special commit
tee elected by the senate.

An Astonished Boy.

In February of this year a Wiscon-

to a village for the first time, and
there the lad saw a train of cars. He
was SO astonished at the sight that he

weeks.
If that youngster is ever taken to
circus or a geological garden he'll
surely be struck dumb for the rest OF
his life. His fathers farm must be
