Cripple Creek.-James J.. Bacon,
riining man and former Colorado
legislator returning from Denver,
where he attended the funerals of his
wife. Ida. and his stepdaughter, Jo-
sephine Davidson, killed in an explo-
sion which wrecked the Bacon home
here April 2Sth, was arrested by Sher-
lff Won Phul on charge of having
placed the dynamite in the kitchen
stove which resulted in the deaths of
two and the injury to himself.
Bacon had nothing to say when
taken into custody and accompanied
the sheriff to prison. where he is be-
ing held without bail. He refused to
talk with the sheriff until given an
opportunity to consult with an attor-
ney. The warrant for Bacon's arrest
was sworn out secretly by the sher-
~ ten days ago, but 1t was not served
says that official, until damaging evi-
uCnce was CLEANED through investiga-
tons and shndowing of Bacon. When
bdCOH went 10 Denver LOT lHc luIeI-
ais of his wife and stepdaughter he
vas accompanied by two deputy sher-
ifs.
The sheriff says that he bases the
charge against Bacon on conflicting
stories told by Bacon after his recov-
cry, and on the statement of County
Physician J. II. Hereford, who is re-
rorted to have said that Bacon was
ieigning Inconsistencies at the hos
pital. One story Bacon told the sher
If was that he was in the house at
the time of the explosion and the 9th
er was that he was just outside the
door.
Bacon is accused by the authorities
OF having caused the explosion which
killed his wife and stepdaughter and
IL jured him so that he spent several
weeks in hospital The explosion
vas at first thought to have been ac-
c'dental, resulting from an attempt to
thaw dynamite in kitchen stove
even. Later, Bacon recovered and
gave his version Of the affair, in
which he declared his belief that enc
Eies had blown up the house. To
rubstantiate this, he told of having re-
ceived threatening letters. The coro-

Answer to Query,

The act of uplifting the hand during
the taking of an oath is SO ancient
that it would be futile to even attempt
to say when it started. Homer at
tempts to say when it started. Homer
mentions it as common among the
Greeks of his time, and it is also found
in the earliest biblical time. For in
stance, Abraham, the father of the
Jewish people, says: Il have lifted
up my hand to Jehovah" showing that
even at that remote period the prac-
tice was existent 1t was from the
Jews, of course, that the practice
found it's way into christendom, where
it has ever since held it's place in ju-
dicial trials.

Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, SEPT. 2e, 1913.

warrant was issued yesterday in | Tacoma for the arrest of man charg- ed with trampling and burning the Am erican flag. IL is to be hoped that the individual will be placed in custody at once and speedily brought to trial.
 In regard to politics, religion and in dustrial conditions what a man thinks is his own business and as long as h, confines himself to the proper meth ods, what he does to convince others that his way of thinking is the right way will be provocative of no harm. This is free country. The press IS fortunately free. speech is free and honest criticism of the laws and the manner of enforcing them is never d matter that should be checked, for by honest criticism many wrong things are lighted. But treason is not. nor will it ever be free and immune from the deepest scorn that all honest men have for that which will lower their coun- try's honor or trail their country's name in the dust.
 Every land in the world that is worthy of the name of nation has some symbol or ensignia which represents the national honor and aspirations. A king is nothing more than the symbol of Il monarchy. an emperor the symbol of an empire. But the flag of these United States is d far grander, nobler mightier symbol than king or emperor of mikado or shaw. 1t is the symbol the emblem, the embodiment of a free and independent people.

THE KING BUSINESS"

1 The king business" as one. very no means all that it is cracked up" to be- In addition to the vast amount
 of work that the monarch must do and the fact that neither his time nor him
 self belong to himself-considerati
 which alone would prejudice many against the job--there is the constant
 deadly fear of assassination which is by no means one of imagination. It is a poorly advertised monarch who has not had some one take Il shot
 at him at some time. and those who have escaped have done so only by
 sense that it is quite possible that they
 may not be so fortunate the next time.
 The accounts of the gathering for the wedding of the Princess Victoria
 Louise. daughter of Emperor William. of Germany. to Prince Ernest. of Cum
 berland. throw a graphic light on the
 fear of death which is ever with one
 of the crowned heads-the czar of
 Russia.
 The czar travelled to the happy fes-
 tivities in an armored train and with
 a large force of soldiers all armed to
 the teeth. The station where he was
 tc arrive in Berlin was cleared of all people a long time in advance of the looming of his train and it was guarded
 by armed troops and thronged with
 police. detectives. secret service men,
 etc. On the locomotive of his train there rode many armed men and every
 window of the cars contained others. all keeping a close scrutiny in all di- ! rections to guard against a sudden and , at any moment from any direction. Now. it cannot be a very pleasant 3 things to be compelled to travel to :, 3 wedding in this fashion. There are very few among us who would be will 8 ing to be compelled to do so. The czal
