It's a very desirable clatter.

It's a very desirable clatter.
For-at the sound of its peal,
1t is bringing to heal
Those men who give our town vantage
For the first place in health,
For the second in wealth,
For you ali know old Benjamin's
adage.
To say nought of the fame
That's thus brot to the name
OF our town in the great marts of
trade
Which you will admit,
And demur not bit
Is essential to a prestige well laid.
Then, too, may say,
By way of fair play,
That there's two sides to every such
case
And it's my private guess,
That the coon in this mess,
Is some one who looks no good sleep
in the face.
In Insomnia's grasp
He starts with gasp
When our siren calls men to their toll
Then he rolls in his cot
And cusses a lot
Der the sleep WE invariably foil.
So then, my dear friend
Cheer up, to the end
That our town is on Industry's map.
For no sharp business head
Should want to throw lead
At even the unlovely zap
OF whistle at five
For it's a sign we're alive
Making hay while there's hay for the
making
And to close we advise
A brisk walk at sunrise
And will guarantee the cure after
taking.
1t seems to me, says the Board of
Trade,
More factories here could be made.
Their noisy wheels and clouds Of
smoke
Would bring more trade, and none
would be broke.
More news for the papers could then
be had,
And the town would look anything
but bad.
But alas for the town and its peoples
welfare
OF the poet and sleep-head we will
have to beware;
For to have all these good things the
Board desire,
We must put up with the 5 A. M. toot
and little fire.
If those who complain would take
more pain
To reach their bed and the hours not
strain
Would not mans natural hours dis
turb with footing horn
Or would not keep stores open until
the following morn
Then how easy for them to follow the

KATY'S SUIT WITH
SUPREME COURT
RAILROAD COMPANY CLAIMS EV-
ERY ALTERNATE SECTION AO-
JOINING RlGHT-OF.WAY.

Washington, Jan. 25.-The claim of
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Rail
way company to $62.OO0,000 damages
against the government for the lat
ter's failure to turn over alternate
sections of land along its line through
Oklahoma, will furnish one of several
important arguments this week before
the supreme court.
The railways claim arises out of
the spectacular railway building race
started by the government in 1866. In
that year congress offered to grant al
ternate sections of land as soon as the
Indian title should be eXtinguished,
along a line of railroad to be con
structed across the present state of
Oklahoma to Denison, Texas, to the
first railroad to build line from the
eastern terminus of the Union Pacific
on the Kansas and Missouri state line,
to the southern line of Oklahoma.
The race was open to three rail
roads-the Kansas and Neosha Valley,
the Leavenworth, Lawrence and Fort
Gibson, and the Union Pacific. The
Kansas and Neosha, which has since
become the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas, won. The government has
not made the grant, however, contend
ing that the Land in question never be
came a part of the public domain OF
the United States. The road claims
$20 an acre damage.
The court will be called on to study
the title to some 10000 acres of land,
comprising the Alameda grant in the
Rio Grande valley near Albuquerque
n NJ. from 1910 down to the present
day. in another case to be presented
to the court this week. Some five
hundred heirs of Captain Juan Con
zales and Francisco Monies Vigil, to
whom the king of Spain granted the
land in 171O assert title to the tract.
So do nearly 100 persons who have
suuattcd on that portion of the land
in the valley and resided there for
years. The latter claim narrow strips
few yards wide, running back some
sixteen miles from the river.
Argument will be heard on the valid
ity of the statute under which c. j.
RiXey. former banker at Alexandria,
Va. is confined in ward for the
criminal insane, at Marion Va. RiXey
was indicted for an alleged felony con
nected with the failure of his bank.
His friends claim a right to have
him committed to the western state
hospital for the insane at Staunton,
Va.
The constitutionalty of that feature
of the federal employers liability law
which gives the surviving widow and
dependent children of an employe kill
ed bv a railroad the entire amount OF
damages recovered will be presented
to the court in oral argument. 1t is
claimed this law is an unconstitution-
al interference with the law of des'
cent Of property in force in various
states.

HA|VES PUTS DEFEAT
UP To PR0CRESS|VES
Governor of Maine Was Beaten by
Plurality of 5000; Leg
islature Divided
Stetini to The Telegrath

Portland. Me-, Sept. 16.-Governor
William r. Haines, Republican. de-
feated for reelection by Mayor Oak
ley G.. Curtis. Democrat, of Portland,
by 5000 in vote of 1873. 900, attributes
his defeat to three factors-the un-
faithfulness of a sheriff he had ap-
pointed to enforce the prohibitory law
after removing a multiplying official
the increase of mileage rates on the
Maine Central to "a cents after he
had vetoed a bill to regulate the issue
of mileages, and the operations of the
Progressive party. The last Is the
most important factor. The removal
of three other sheriffs may have had
an influence.
The vote, approximately completed,
is,
Haines, Republican, 5S,351; Curtis
Democrat, 61.5S9; Gardner, Progress
sive, 1858. Haines gained 31,S02
over the vote cast for Taft in 1912,
Curtis gained 10,476, over Wilson's
vote. and Gardner fell 30,S52 short of
the vote which was accorded Roose-
welt. In September, 1912, Haines re-
ceived 70,931 and defeated Plaisted,
who had 67,7702. Therefore from last
Governors election Curtis decreased
GLIB and Haines fell off 1850.
The Legislature will be divided. The
Republicans will control the Senate
with II votes to the Democrats IA. In
the lower house exact figures are not
yet clear, but indications are that the
Democrats will have rs, Republicans
70, Progressives 5 and one in doubt
Unless considerable number of
Republicans violate their platform
pledges there will be no referendum
of the constitutional prohibitory
amendment in the next two years, for
resubmission of an amendment re-
quires two-thirds majority in both
houses and the Republican party is
pledged to support prohibition.
Three Republicans and one Demo-
crat were reelected to Congress. The
combined vote of the four Republican
candidates, not quite complete, was
5S,327 and of the four Democratic
candidates, 59.20S. The defeated Re-
