AUSTRALIANS To

Public Meeting Is Held at

recently at a public meeting held at
Mount Morgan in northern Queens
land
II Is recalled that toward The close
of the civil war in the United States
Queensland took to cotton culture to
meet the English demand which was
enormous and had been greatly in
creased BY the impoverishment of the
south; ana in 1871 the cotton exports
from Australia amounted to 2,5o0,O0O
pounds. When cotton growing recov-
cred IN the United states. that coun-
try produced it IN huge quantities and
in order to dispose of it. sold It at such
low figures that the Queensland
growers could not compete with profil
al the American price, and the indus
try finally languished The present
cotton growing campaign owes itself
to an article written for Rockhamp-
ton newspaper by @. stephen Hart, +.
K. In the course of this Mr. Hart
said:

The exact questions were these:

3. What will be Japan's basic prin-
ciple and what will be the conditions
due to Japan in the coming peace nc
gotiations; and what should DE ia

Many Answers Received.
About a score of professors, navy

INDIAN DOCTOR KILLED
BY HIS TRIBESMEN

When a Piute doctor loses his third
case he must die. He might just as
well be prepared to meet his Maker
after his skill has failed him for the
third time. The third and last time
means the finish of the doctor. says
the Tonopah Times. Henry Kelly,
chief of the Tonopah fire department
returned from a brief vacation at
Wellington Friday evening. While
enjoying the simple life on a ranch
near that place Tuesday he received
word that an Indian had just been
found dead on the Hanawalt ranch,
three miles away. The Indians
head had been literally beaten off
with a rock. Mr.. Kelly with others
from the ranch went to the place
where the body was found. 1t had
been placed in some underbrush with
an open suitcase over its head. AS
far as a be learned the Indian had
been killed last Saturday night.
From what Mr.. Kelly could gather
from other Indians in the vicinity the
dead man had served his tribe in the
capacity of medicine man. He had
not had good luck with his patients.
Having lost two in a short time he
made a noble effort to save his third
patient, but in vain.
