five per cent of the registered Voters

passes or vetoes the measures de
sired within thirty days, an elec
tion will be held to enable the people

petition carries only 10 per cent of
the voters and tho governing body
refuses to act, the measures come up
for a vote of the people at the next
regular municipal election.

A Berlin dispatch .to the New
York Sun says: "Count von Revent
low, tho famous writer, is about to
publish a critical opinion concerning
tue relation of the United States and
Japan. Ho asserts that Japan un
questionably is preparing for an ag
gressive war against the United
btates with as much care as she pre
pared for the struggle with Russia.
The count asserts that statesmen are
convinced that Japan cannot con
tinue to exist as a great power unless
ouo possesses aDsoiute naval supre
macy in the Pacific, which is also in
dispensable to her commercial pros
perity, xne desire for this supre
macy is the logical result of her
efforts to command the Chinese mar
kets and defeat the attempted con
quest thereof by tho Americans."
A Chicago dispatch to the Denver
Times says: "Congressman Champ
Clark of Missouri Ib a candidate for

and faro worse and I think it will."

A Yankton S. D., dispatch to the
Sioux City (la.) Journal, says: "L.
E. May, a relief express messenger of
St. Paul, working for the Great
Northern on the run into this city,
lost a package containing $1,000 in
bills. The package of money was
consigned from Souix Falls to a party
in Davis. Instead of following the
usual practice of putting it in the
safe, May put it in his pocket, and
when near Tea he dropped it out of
his pocket and it fell from the car.
Being an inexperienced hand May
did not think that he had authority
to stop the train, and it had gone a
couple of miles when the conductor
learned of the accident and backed
the train to the place where the mes
senger thought the package fell out.
It could not be found, however, and
the train came on without it. Sec
tion hands were sent out from Tea
and May returned to Sioux Falls
from Lennox, and after a prolonged
search the place where the package
was dropped was discovered, and
$950 found, the package having
broken and the rest blown away."
The Kansas legislature has passed
a state utilities commission hin
something like the New York and
Wisconsin laws. Concerning this
measure tho Kansas City Star says:
"The utility bill, as reported from the
conference committee and finally
adopted, provides or a board ap
pointed by the governor. It carries
with it a re-enactment of all the
present railroad laws, with additional
provisions regulating railways. It
also includes all telephone, telegraph,
street railway, express and sleeping
car companies. Tho ntimioa re
mission Is given the power to regu
late rates and tolls charged by all
public utilities corporations, and to
order competing companies to estab
lish joint rates. It has the power,
also, to make physical valuations of
the property of the companies to de
termine what constitutes a fair and
just rate for the company. The com
missioners may institute proceedings
uiJUU men uwn initiative to compel
Ion
public rates or to Teadjust their
charges to the public. It gives the
utilities companies the right of ap
peal to the courts, but pending the
appeal the rate ordered by the com
mission must remain In force. Any
citizen may appeal to the commis
sion for the adjudication of any
franchise council which controls a
public utility. Upon appeal the stato
commission has the power to regu
late local public utilities companies.
The commission is also given the
power to regulate and control the is
suance of stocks and bonds by pub
lic utilities companies.
President Diaz of Mexico says he
will not treat for peace for the
revolutionist. He says he has his
own ideas about bringing "rebels"
to terms.
The governor of Texas has signed
a bill providing or a vote on the
constitutional amendment for state
wide prohibition. The special elec
tion will take place July 22.
The Mexican revolutionists say
that before they enter into any con
ference looking toward peace, Diaz
must resign as president and permit
an honest election and a free ballot
to be held.
