Distressing scenes were witnessed
along Cabin Creek section of West
Virginia yesterday when deputy sher-
ifs evicted the families of many min
ers from their humble homes. The
evictions are being closely watched
by the military to prevent mistreat-
ment and unnecessary suffering. The
striking miners were notified two
months ago that they must return to
work or move. No serious disturb
ances followed the action of the Off
GERS early in the day, but the author
tiles were apprehensive and the dis
trict was carefully guarded.

of S15O,O0O to the preconvention CAM
paign of President Taft. Through
the Washington headquarters, Man

partially account for this sum on the
stand yesterday before the Senate
special committee. How much was
collected and expended elsewhere he
said he did not know. Mr.. Mckinley

Some surprise was created recently
by real estate transaction of more
than ordinary Importance. l.. NJ. Shaw,
according to the record, has sold to
G.. L. Voss all of his real estate in
Crawford county, the consideration
amounting to in the neighborhoOd Of
$1OO,OOO.OO. This is one of the largest
real estate transactions which has
been made in this locality. 1t is reas-
enable that Mr.. Shaw would want to
sell his real estate in the west as his
business is centered in Philadelphia.
And it is natural that Mr.. Voss would
desire to invest in real estate in this
county because he has demonstrated
his faith in Crawford county land. We
are sure that Mr. Voss got the best
end of the bargain because Crawford
county land is meter than cash any
time.

those who desired to make entries
and exhibits from doing so. All day
Tuesday stock was being taken to the
sheds and pens, and the floral hall
was being rapidly filled with exhibits
OF all kinds. Supt. F. n. Olry and
Prof. w. c. VanNess were at Arion
early arranging splendid school ex-

of beautiful needlework, canned

to the rain of Tuesday people are per-

BISHOP LEWIS AT DENIsoN.
This Noted Missionary Bishop Speaks
at Oenison on Thursday Even-
ing, September 18th.

Denison is to be honored Thursday
evening of this week by the presence
of Bishop Lewis of the Methodist
church. He will speak at s o'clock
on that evening and the usual prayer
meetings of the Presbyterian and
Baptist churches will give way so that
the membership can hear him. Many
will remember that prior to his TAX
ing his new office, Bishop Lewis was
president of the great Methodist col
lege at Sioux City. He has been sta
toned for two years in China and will
speak Thursday not alone on the mis-
sionary efforts in that far off land, but
of the political and social conditions
of the new republic. A talk from so
eminent and we'll posted speaker
should enlist for him large hearing.

SEEKS TO ADJUST
CITY WATER RATES
City Council Sees Need of More Rev.
enue From Water Plant and
Will Readjust Rates.
$500 FOR THE FIRST 10000,
Forty Cents for Next Five Thousand,
Thirty Cents for Next Five
Thousand, Fifteen Thereafter

The city council contemplates a
readjustment of city water rates in
the near future, and the city solicitor
has been instructed to prepare an or
dinance setting forth a new schedule
of rates. Under the present method
of charging for the use of city water
the revenue is not sufficient to cover
the expense of operating the plant.
The meters recently installed are not
to be done away with by any means,
but minimum of $500 is contemplat-
ed, and patrons will be allowed 12,-
900 gallons. Whatever the meter reg
listers above that amount will be
charged for as follows: 40 cents
per thousand for the first five
thousand, 80 cents per thousand for
the next five thousand and Is cents
per thousand thereafter, per month.
Heretofore the rate has been charged
at 40 cents for the first thousand gal
Ions, 80 cents for the next five thous-
and and 20 cents thereafter, per six
months.
Under the present method of read
ing the meters, patrons are charged
the 40, 80 and 20 cent rate per six
months The new ordinance will pro-
vide for the minimum of $500 and the
40, 80 and Is cents per month instead
of six months.
1t is figured that the new rates will
make returns to the amount of about
$4,000 per year. There are number
of patrons who have not yet in
stalled meters and unless they do so
at once they will be Charged $1,000
per year.
With the building of the new wells
and installation Of new pump a
couple of years ago the water fund is
considerably behind and under the new
rates it is hoped to soon liquidate the
last Indebtedness and provide for III
tu"e contingencies.

JUDGE POWERS
ON THE BENCH
District Court Opened Monday After
noon and Judge E. N. Powers
Called Calendar.
BYRNEs FOREMAN GRAND JURY
Presumption is That Number Of
Cases Will be Settled
Out of Court.

Judge Powers arrived on Monday
and opened the district court during
the afternoon and proceeded with the
business of the term.
The grand jury was organized with
J: T. Byrnes as foreman, other men,
bers Of the jury being: J. P. Hanigan,
N. J. Kahl, Wilbur Hall, Otto Siege
mann, G. NJ. Goddard and J. P. Maloy.
After the jury had retired to their
room Mr.. E. T. Cochran was selected
as clerk of the grand jury for the
term. This county has been fortunate
in the light expense on account of
criminal prosecutions. After the
grand jury was impanelled the court
proceeded to call the calendar to as
certain what cases would be for trial
and to make the assignment of the
equity cases for this week, leaving
the law cases for trial the second and
third weeks of the term. The. equity
cases assigned for trial this weeh are:
Ellen A. Sleeper, guardian, versus E.
S. killion; Robert c. Jackson VS. John
letter and others; Thomas Rae VS.
Mary A. Butler; Frank Comstock VS.
Jacob Fielweber and H. J. Cummings,
sheriff; Mary E. Duncan VS. Anne E.
Vollertsen and Carl Evers VS. Elsie
Evers.
The presumption is that most of the
cases assigned for this week will be
either settled or continued, which will
probably result in the court not be-
ing in session during the full week.
There are a number of cases assigned
on the law calendar for this term and
we presume a sufficient number to
keep the court busy the rest of the
term.
Judge Powers, from his appearance,
has evidently enjoyed his vacation and
looks as if he would be able to stand
the arduous labors ahead of him for
the coming year.

came to pass in the old Methodist
church. We know that some of the
most stirring religious events of Den.

dearest friends spoken in the pulpit

ship in stately cathedrals, of great
occasions in churches whose walls are
uplifted high, but all can give testi-
mony that in little church with mar

hearts and the presence of the divine
more than in the stately structures.
We have witnessed walk up the
aisles of that church with expectant
tread to take the solemn marriage

ice in all directions is good and all
who can should attend the remaining
days of the fair.

John L. Stevens, the high minded
progressive of Boone, when he first
announced that he would cast his lot
with Theodore Roosevelt, said that
he should not, under any circum-
stances, consent to ticket in the new
party in Iowa in opposition to the
regular candidates nominated by the
republicans at the June primary be-
cause the candidates on the republi-
ed by the people of Iowa and the voice
OF the people should be respected. On
several occasions since he repeated
that no nomination should be made
against republican candidates on the
state ticket because they were fairly
nominated. One can now judge how
effectively the reform movement has
operated upon the conscience of
Judge Stevens, whe it is disclosed
that he himself has accepted the nom-
ination for governor in the new party
and comes out against Geo. w.
Clarke, whose nomination he declared
was fairly made by the people. Judge
Stevens can have no hope of election
and cannot expect to accomplish any
thing further than to defeat the elec-
tion Of Mr.. Clarke, progressive and
a man whose nomination reflects the
will of the people fairly expressed at
the primary.

Rev. J. H. Senseney left early in the
week to attend the Des Moines con
ference of the Methodist Episcopal
church, which is in session at Boone
this week. Bishop Hughes, of San
Francisco, is the presiding officer
The program is good one and nc
doubt will attract number of Den
ison people. The expectation is that
Rev. Senseney will be returned here
for another year, and if anything
should happen to prevent it there will
be great disappointment, not only to
the members of the church, but to peo
pie outside of it. Rev. Senseney by
his attractive way, strong sermons
and deep piety has gained a strong
hold upon the people and the commun
ity and we trust hat he will oe re
turned tcr another year.

BILL

PROVISION ABOLlSHiNG CON-
MERGE COURT is LEFT IN

ial appropriation bill. eth carrying
the provision Ia abolish the commerce
court but lacking the provision 10 limit
tenure of office of civil service en-
p poyes 10 seven years. II now goes to
the senate for the second time.
The appropriations committee made
40 changes In the bill after II came
back from the White House except to
drop from II the civil service restric-
tion. The measure. passed without n
roll call. contained the provision for
the immediate adjustment of the COM
mercc court. the transfer of its busi-
ness To the federal district courts and
the retention of the five judges as
extra United .tates circuit judges
Before the senate acts on the meas
ure II will go through the hands of It's
appropriations committee. Many men,
bers of the committee said today they
favored leaving out both OF the sec
tions to which President Taft had
objected. While the senate undoubt-
edly would approve bill to abolish
the commerce court, many republicans
and democratic leaders favor leaving
the legislation out ol the appropriation
bill
Should the bill as passed today by
the house go through the senate with
out change, II is believed the president
again Will veto 1t and force upon con
gress the n Tentative of acceding to his
wishes or facing deadlock with tht
White House which would prolong tn,

the bill containing the abolishment Of

would fail of such repassage In the
