LAND BILL
In Aid of South Dakota Settlers
introduced By Martin

Washington, Dec. 3.-Indian lands
opened to settlement in portions of
South Dakota found to contain coal
aud other mineral deposits are to be
made subject to ''disposal under the
general provisions of the coal and
mineral land laws" according to the
terms of a bill introduced by Repre-
sentative Martin, of South Dakota.
His bill refers to lands in the Rose
bud, White River, Lower BIule,
Cheyenne River and Standing Rock
reservations.
A number Of the settlers in these
localities have written Mr.. Martin
that they have found Fuller's earth
and kalonite on their land. Under
the present law they are unable to de-
velop them, and Mr.. Martins bill pro-
poses to correct the defect.
The national board of soldiers homes
has recommended that a steel reservoir
be erected at the Battle Mountain sani-
tarium in Hot Springs. S. ID. p. Ii.

THE REFERENDUM
An Amusing Feature of Its
Application to Free
Lunch

New York Tribune: Really there
are some joys about self government Of
the western style. where everybody is
bis W lawmaker. We had thought
it was all a frightful bore, which only
an exaggerated sense of duty would
made supportable. But 1t must have
been fun for Los Angeles to vote en- the
question. of retaining the free lunch
in saloons. II must have been great
fun, considering the circumstances
which led TO that vote. 1t appears
that this was not a reform measure
proposed by some enemy of good
cheer. The saloon keepers themselves
wanted to get lid Of the burden of
feeding their patrons. but could not
agree among themselves to stop doing
IL. So some of them used the ordin-
ance forbidding free lunch to be sub
mitted to the voters, not openly, of
course, but probably all the while
making q long face at this threatened
invasion of their rights of hospitality
and of the personal liberties of their
patrons. No doubt they expected the
newly enfranchised women voters Of
Los Angeles to strike down the rival
of the family dinner table.
So far as the voters understood the
real motive of the ordinance, what a
satisfaction they must have 8 t in
rsllying to the defense of the right of
the man behind the bar to feed his
patrons freel They have been upheld
by a large vote. men and womeD alike
declining to restrict his generosity. No
one will nov venture to interfere with
ii. The free lunch has q huge measure
of popular approval. The saloon keep.
ers can't abandon it themselves now
without assailing the sacred right of
the people to rule. 1t has almost a
constitutional character.

FIRST BOB CAT
Rapid City Man and Wife Bag
the First of the Season

Rapid City, Dec. 13.-With the
first fall of tracking snow which fell
Monday night Senator M. A. LANCE
and his wife were afeld bright and
early Tuesday morning. They started
their lack of bounds in near the
mouth Of south canyon and soon they
were in full cry after a bob cat. Mr..
and Mrs. LANCE saw the animal sever
al times as he ran along the side of
the canyon just out of gun shot.
After an hours chase the cat freed
but jumped as Mr., LANCE approached
the tree. After a short chase the
animal again sought ocver in a tall
pine. LANCE reached the tree and
called to Mrs. LANCE to come and
shoot the cat. At the sound of
Lange's voice the bob jumped as
LANCE says forty feet striking the
ground far beyond the reach of the
dogs and scampering away up the can
yon. Some time was spent in getting
the dogs Cr the track. Then the chase
continued during the afternoon the cat
freeing and jumping until heal dusk.
The last stand the bounded animal
made was high in the top of an old
pine that stood On the edge of the can
yon. 1t was too dark to distinguish
objects clearly. Mr.. Lang. however,
directed Mrs. LANCE to shoot at a
bunch in some pine boughs near the
top of the tree. With the discharge of
the gun the cat jumped again. This
time the dogs caught the trail quick
y and after following the now
wounded and badly fatigued animal
about a mile killed it just as it was
crawling into a pocket in the rocks.
The cat weighed twenty eight pounds
and is a handsome specimen. 1t will
be mounted for the museum Of natural
history at the state University.

BAYONET THOUGHT OBSOLETE
Use Made by BuIsarians Wakes Up
Military Experts.

1t is curious to think that the bay
onet, which has played so great a
part in tine Bulgarian victories, might
not have been in existence if the mill
tary experts of the kingdom had had
their way.
In 1892, in the Bulgarian scheme of
modern armament, the Mannlicher RI
fies were ordered without bayonets,
the authorities having come to the con-
clusion that the bayonet was obso-
lete in modern warfare. The average
opinion Of the army, however, soon
made itself felt, and the first order
was countermanded, and the rifle was
ordered with the bayonet, but the bay
onet was not of the ordinary size, but
really a sort of knife. In subsequent
orders the bayonet was not questioned.
1t is interesting to speculate what
the Bulgarian fortunes might have
been without the bayonet.

Cleveland, o., Dec. l3.-In a little
kitchen at her home Mrs. Mood Thol
has battled with Nature for years SO.
cretly In an effort to keep Time from

Around her feet crept three children,
two, three and four years old. Vic

devised to prevent them from advanc.

kicked their feet and waved their
hands as she crooned over them.
The older boy did not creep faster OF
with greater eass than the younger
ones. He is barely larger than the
average child of two years and appar.
emily has not advanced intellectually
beyond the cradle.
To turther defeat their development
the mother has never fed them any
thing except baby food. What lay be-
ond the door. through which a
stranger never passed, they had no
idea.
Neighbors say the woman never took
her children away. Occasionally In
the hot summer, they say, she would
wheel them out in the darkness, but
always guarded them carefully from
the gaze of amy person.
"She had a strange desire to always
keep them babies" Deputy Sheriff
Stanley Sobczap said. "Tbe four-year-
old boy cannot talk or walk. He is
not IS large as my ~youngster, who is

A Voice From Watauga County.

Union Republican.
Mr.. Editor: Being a reader of your
paper and not seeing anything from
old Watauga for some time, thought
| would inform you that the people
were not all dead up the mountains,
and were not all supporting Mr.. Taft,
by a horn full. The Republicans of
this county are for Theodore Roose-
welt, for President, ten to one.
note, Mr. Editor, that you are sup
porting Mr.. Taft and opposing Mr..
Roosevelt, and | don't know for what
cause, unless it is through party 10y
atty, that is, that you believe Mr.. Taft
to be the choice of the Republican
party. Now l want to ask you who
compose the Republican party? Is it
the great masses of voters who elect
ed Mckinley and Roosevelt, or is it
Barnes, Penrose, Root, Mckinley and
a defunct national committee and the
office-holders under Mr.. Taft? If the
latter, then, of course, you are repre-
senting the party's choice, but if the
rank and file of Republican voters,
then you are ignoring their expressed
demands. Of course, you would say
that Mr.. Roosevelt is not a Republi-
can, and not running on the Republi-
can platform. Now I want to say
that if Mr.. Roosevelt does not rep
resent the Republican party by name,
he does represent them by principle,
because the progressive platform is
the same document the Republicans
! demanded at Chicago, but whose pow
er was crushed and rights denied
/ You know and every other Informed
man knows that in nearly every State
! where the people had a voice they
were overwhelmingly for Roosevelt
| and more especially in those State:
that have a Republican majority
So if you are for party loyalty come
out for Theodore Roosevelt, tn,
champion of the people, who the ma
jority of the Republicans are support
ing, whose just claims will be proven
on November 5th. I am,
/ Yours for Roosevelt,

HE charged that Simmons had
Lorimer to visit him at his New Bern
home and had entered into a lumber
deal with Lorimer; that Simmons in
his talk about the Lorimer lack
pot" had shown his familiarity with
the game, while he declared with
hands raised in holy horror that he
(the governor) had never seen a
Jack pot" and did not know what
one looked like.
He charged that Simmons state
ment that he would resign If he was
not elected chairman of the finance
committee was a political bluff, q
game that Senator Simmons was gooG
at; that as a matter of fact Simmons
would not resign.

WANTS CONSISTENCY.
Mr. Jonas Thinks Secretary Davis
Should Oppose Wilson and Mar
shall as Wei rs Settle.

Some days ago the Secretary OF the
Anti-Saloon League sent a circular
letter to all the newspapers. and pos
sibly To others asking their support
in fighting Settle for Governor, be
cause he is running on local option
plank. but failed TO raise any protest
against voting for Wilson and Mar
shall who are avowed local option
lists. The editor OF The Lincoln
Times received one OF the letters, and
the following is a portion Of his re-
ply:
Rev. r. l.. Davis. Superintendent
State Anti-Saloon League,
Raleigh, y. c.
Dear Sir:-The Lincoln Times Is
in receipt OF your circular letter in
which YOU say there is nothing left
for us but to fight their (the Repub-
lfcan) ticket, since that party has
nominated a local option candidate.
| agree with you that the Anti-Saloon
League and all individual prohibit
tionists VIII oare sincere should vote
and work against the election TO high
office any man who is local option
list. For that reason The Times has
repeatedly pointed out TO its readers
the fact that the Taft Republicans in
the State, and also the National Dem
ocratic party, have nominated as
their standard bearers opponents of
prohibition. The Times has further
expressed surprise that your League
has not taken action in openly oppos-
ing both these political organizations.
You will remember that after
this State had voted prohibition by a
large majority, you and your fellow
leaders told our people the fight had
Just begun, and that the next step
was to carry the matter before the
National Congress and fight for ma
tional legislation that would curtail
the liquor traffic by preventing the
shipment of liquor into this and other
dry States. Such legislation is now
pending in Congress. The question
arises, How can we hope to succeed
in passing national legislation that
viii curtail the liquor traffic if we
help elect, either by our votes, or by
quietly failing to show our oppOsi-
ton, a President and a Vice-Presi
dent, both of whom are avowed local
optionists?' You are we'll aware Of
the fact that both Woodrow Wilson
and Governor Marshall, the Demo-
Vice-President, are opposed openly
to prohibition. You are also aware,
doubtless, that the Anti Saloon
League of Maryland notified the
Democratic committee that if they
sent Governor Marshall into that
State the League would be forced to
openly oppose the ticket
