WARNS AGAINST DOGS.

Regarding dogs. the city physician
gives a lengthy and timely warning.
This is the season. he says. when there
is the greatest danger from the pets.
He recommends that all stray dogs be
placed in the pound by the police and
dispatched If not called for in two or
three days by their owners. He points
out that the slightest wound from the
teeth OF a dog may prove fatal. He
criticizes the present city ordnance,
which does not hold an owner liable
for the acts of his dog unless II has
been shown that the dog has been
vicious on more than one occasion.
This, he says, permits a dog to kill
two persons before being extermina-
ted. At his suggestion, City Attorney
J. F. Witter has drawn up new ordi-
nance which makes il a nuisance to
have a dog which has bitten anyone.
An effort will be made 70 have this
ordinance substituted for the present
one.

To accomplish the political ruin of
these congressman who have dared
stay regular in the face of Roosevelt
ian demand, the plan now on foot is to
place opposing candidates in the field

conferences. The nominations, if such
are decided upon, will take place in
the state convention which is yet TO be

been suggested that 3. F. Harris, the
Champaign banker, be nominated as

lights for which thsy pay S65 per
year each. This is for an all
night service. The meter rates
In business district is 10 cents per
kilowat, and In other parts OF
town 10 cents per kilowat.
From these rates a discount OF 1
per cent IL allowed for cash be-
fore the 10th OF the month.
Customers are charged $40 each
for meters. warrensburg has
only a night service.
Occasionally we hear soms one
In Higginsville kicking about the
rates and when we do we put II
down he In not posted on rates OF
other towns. There Is not one
town in ten that has the low
rates or good service that Hig-
ginsville has. The town owns it's
own plant, furnishes it's custo-
mers meters, gives a "a hour
service, makes a rate OF 10 cents
for the first 100 kilowats, 7 1-2 TO-
the second, and cents for the
third. The residence district IL
charged the same as the business
district. In the Warrensburg
schedule 1t will bs seen ths town
pays S65 per year for each arc
light. Higginsville has 10 are
lights, and the plant Is never
given credit for supplying this
amount OF light, which II owned
by private capital the city would
have to dig up that amount In
cash.

ARRESTED
IN BOMB PLOT
Many Officers in Iron Work
ere Union in Jail

At a given signal to-day the long
arm OF the United States Govern
ment reached out and closed the
net which for months a federal
grand jury in indianapolis had
been laying for the alleged par
ticipants in the nationwide dyna-
mite conspiracy.
From New York to San Fran
cisco and from Duluth to New
Orleans the meshes OF the net ex-
tended and within few hours
most OF the fifty-four labor
officials under indictment we're
behind prison bars or had given
bonds for their appearance at In
dianspolis March ~, when the
dynamite conspiracy trial is sche-
duled TO begin.
With one sweep practically the
entire official staff and the
International Association OF the
Bridge and Structural Ironwork-
ers, which has a membership
$4,000, was taken into custody, in
cluding the chief officers, mem.
bers OF the Executive Board snt
about twenty business agents an'
former business agents.
These included Frank NJ. Ryan
the president; John T. Butler, o.
Buffalo, N. Y, the first vice-pres-
ident and Herbert s. Ho,kin, the
second vice-president and success
sor OF j. j. Mcnamara as secre-
tary-treasurer and each OF these
men was required to give $4,000
bond for his appearance for ar
raignment with all the other de-
PENDANTS on March ~.
More than forty-four men, chief
ly labor union officials, who are
charged with conspiring to des-
troy by dynamite or nitrog, > cerine
the property OF employers OF nom
union labor, were under arrest to-
night and II was declared the APP
prehen nsion OF all the Others would
follow within forty-eight house.
By its action the government re-
vealed the identity OF the men
whom 1t charges with being the
accomplices of the McNamaras and
ortie e. McManigal, in the dyna.
mite plots, embracing almost one
hundred explosions which were
begun In Massachusetts, In 1905,
which were scattered over the
country for six years and which
resulted In the wreckiny OF the
Los Angeles Times Building and
an attempt to blow up President
Tafts special train at Santa
Barbara, CAL, last October.
Fourteen OF those indicted are
each required TO furnish bond in
the amount OF $1,000 and forty
are to furnish $4,000 bond making
an aggregate bond required OF
$4,000. Some OF those whom the
government was unable to find to-
day were reported to have disap-
peared through fear OF inability to
get bond. It was intimated that
the Iron Workers Association
would be unable to furnish secur'
ity for its arrested members.
