NOMINEES FOR CHARTER COM.
MlssIoNERS
Spirited and Good Natursd Contest
at Primaries on Thurs.
day Next.


day Next.
The Republican primaries for the
nomination of three candidates at large
and one in each ward to be voted for
next Thursday as commissioners to re-
wise the city charter resulted in one Of
the liveliest and best natured primary
contests for years. While the'vote was
not large in any of the wards there was
something doing" every minute dur.
ing the three hours the polls were open,
arguments pro and con on the two lists
were at times decidedly warm, although
good. .natured.
1t was the general expectation up to
Friday last that the voters favorable to
commission form of government
would call primaries for the nomina-
tion Of candidates and that those op-
posing change in the form of our city
government would do likewise. It de-
veloped, however, that if primaries
were held the call must come from the
regular party organizations and the
Republican city committee issued its
call, which proved to be the only one
issued. The time for filing names to go
on the primary ticket expired at noon
Wednesday and at that time but eight
names had been given to either the
chairman or secretary of the commit
tee, as follows: At large: N. R. Walsh,
G. M. Dewey, DR.. A. M. Hume; first
ward, W. E. Collins; second, Geo. Nc
Laughlin; third, julius Frieseke;
fourth, G. E. Rigley, Jr.; fifth. w. II,
VanSice. The list apparently was not
satisfactory to the officers of the COM
mission government club as they an
nounced Thursday morning that they
would have ticket. Upon investiga-
tion it was found that the second ticket
could not be used and so pastors were
printed containing the following names:
At large: w. M. Fitzpatrick, J. H.
Robbins. w. E. Hall; first ward. G.. E.
Pardee; second, DR.. G. Mccormick;
third, c. M. Cudney; fourth, c. E.
Rigley, Jr.; fifth, w. D. Whitehead.
The result showed the nomination of
the first ticket by the following vote
At large:
Walsh-43, 30, 43, 90, 53-197.
Dewey-59, 81, As, %, 52-214.
Hume-45, 20, A, %, 53-l99.

Washington, Nov. LITTLE state, de:

China about $50 miles from Peking,
on the Gulf of Pechili. The purpose is
10 perform an international duty un-
der the Boxer treaty in keeping open
the line Of communication between
Picking and the sea.
1t was said at the state department
that request for troops had not been
made on the war department, but was
momentarily expected. The officials
were careful to make it appear that
The dispatch of these troops to China
would be absolutely without any po-
litical meaning and the movement was
not to be construed as Intervention.

URGES CONTROL BY BUREAU
Roosevelt Discusses Methods Of Regu.
Iatinq Trusts.

3.
New York, Nov. 17.-Recent litiga-
ton and legislation to regulate the
trusts is discussed and remedy to
meet the present situation is suggest
ed by Theodore Roosevelt in an edi-
torial entitled "The Trust, the People
and the Square Deal" published In the
Outlook.
"The suit against the steel trust by
the government" Mr.. Roosevelt be-
gins, has brought wildly before our
people the need of reducing to order
our chaotic government policy as re.
CARDS business"
He concludes with the following
"The national government exercises
control over interstate commerce rail-
ways and it can, in similar fashion,
through an appropriate governmental
body, exercise control over all indus
trial organizations engaged in inter-
state commerce. This control should
be exercised, not by the courts, but by
an administrative bureau or board
such as the bureau of corporations or
the interstate commerce commission;
for the courts cannot, with advantage,
permanently perform executive and
administrative functions"

DECISION AGAINST
THE BEEF BAR0NS
Judge Koh|satt Dismisses Writ
Of Habeas Corpus.

Chicago, Nov 19.-The government
won another move in it's fight to bring
to trial nine indicted Chicago meat
packers when Judge Kohlsaat in the
United States circuit court quashed a
writ of habeas corpus issued several
days ago.
Judge Kohlsaat held that the cir
cult court had no power to issue a
writ except in extraordinary circum-
stances and that in the present case
it was without the right. ITO do so,"
he said in his decision, would be an
attempt to review the finding OF the
United States district court. The order
of the court will be to quash the writ,
remand the defendants for trial and
surrender them to their sureties.'
Levy Mayer, counsel for the pack
ers, prayed an appeal to the supreme
court.

honor to FIX the amount of ball." he

Sheean, government counsel, when a

"Your honor's order to remand Is
void" said Mr. Mayer. I'VE shall
find. unless care be taken, this ques-
ton will be so snarled that there can
be no adjudication"
After hearing arguments from the
packers attorneys Judge kohlsaat re-
fused to interfere. The packers gave
notice of appeal. Il x.
