THK'RKE: OMAITA, MOXDAV, DECEMBER 12. 1010.
!he Tribune repeated the reinet and ns
Igaln refused, t now with the ass' itlon
that he would not permit pU-ture to b
taken Scent on the order of Judee Dun-
gan. Judge Dungan was then out of ilif c( carrying free moll for nil executive de
e.lty and did no, return until fiitunhiy lertment and for the rnntrf".
night, f.m Bunday Judg nun'ti was
asked for an order on the sheriff prr
mlttlng tha photograph to I takm. Jit igo
Dungan left for Mlrden flundav o rninj.-.
mad out the order at that place ami
mailed It to representative of the Tribune,
who received It lata ,Ion!y afternoon.
Tuesday morning, armrd with this note,
the Tribune representative repeated his
request for permission to photornph the
cell. Tha sheriff was Informed thot th brought to a head represent swindling op
photograph could be lal.fn without the I eiutlone that have filc hed from the Ameii-
haisrd of a flash'lgi.t. Tha reitie.t tea",
refused again and this t:nie tl,e ehetlff
declared that he would not at any time
permit the plct'ir to be taken, notwith
standing tha orrter from Judge Dungan.
Tha Tribune exhausted all efforts to get
tha picture, which would have shown with
esactnes Just wl at the furnishings were.
We do not see an. good reaon for tlie
refusal, for the Inking of the picture would
have been of no Inconvenience to the
Jailor or the prisoners. Surely It was not
because of objections the prisoner might
have had to being photographed, for It
was not asked to have the prisoners In
the cella for the photograph.
Feraltare nml .Meals.
"The Tribune published a report to the
effect that dresser had been ordered sent
to tha cell. Rome filrnlture had been de
livered to tha cella and Immediately upon
getting a description of them, the Tribune,
on Tuesday of thla week, quoted the sheriff
himself a saying that they were small
tahlea or tahourettes. The Inspectors call
them cabinet.
"The Tribune Information In rrirard to
tha Intended preparation of meal for the
prison by the Japanese chef M obtained
from a pen-on with whom the Jailor had
talked of tha prisoners' plan. The rerort
as to tha Ja panose chef waa made before
tho prisoners arrived. Since then the
Tribune haa printed nothing to Imply that
the Japanee was sending meala to the
Jail, but on the contrnry It waa staed on
the day after tin ranchmen cama that the
Japanese bad not arrived and that the
prisoner were belr.g supplied with tha
regular prison fare.
"There has been nothing In tha Tribune
In rcferenc to laee curtains or carpet
In tha cells, to which allusion was made
In the Inspectors' finding. That report Was
published In Kanras City, from a source
for which tha Tribune I In no way re
ponslbl. . ,
"Tho thing which our contemporary
with such fervor now den lei were reported
In It own columns. It asaerttd that the
prisoners had selected tha Adam county
Jail as the place of their Imprisonment;
It designated tha prisoner as the self-appointed
gueata of Sheriff M'Cleery and
told of their being as snug as a bug In
a rug and enjoying all the pleasures of
life in tha Adams county Jail; It reported
tha nlnglng and dancing by tha negro
Daugherly for the amuement of the
ranchman; It spoke of. tha unusual cour
tesies and privileges granted these crimi
nals; as lata as Monday of this week It
referred to tha attention being attracted
by these prisoner being permitted to fur
nlh their cella with the moat expensive
rug and furniture as well as being al
lowed all tha comforts of home, Including
a Japanese chef.
"Practically all of tha report concern
ing the treatment of tho ranchmen would
have been proved or disproved by a photo
graph of tha cells occupied by the ranch
men. Tha Tribune tried thla mean of
showing tho conditions and failed, for rea
sons .which may bestH stated by the
Jailer.' V 1 .': .
"However, slnca tha Tribune's exposures
have had tha effect of bringing about an
Investigation we feel that wo hava done
our Just duty."

Is the circulation of thla type of publlca
tlona which aid ao affectively in tha edu
cational and moral advancement of tha
people, that the government can beat af
ford to encourage. For these publications,
and also for legitimate reading matter in
periodical form, tha dTrtment favora a
contiauatlon of tha present low postage
rat of 1 cent a pound and reoomtnenda
that tha proposed increase In rata b ap
plied only to magasln advertising matter.
Vanishing Deficit.
"In view of the var;rlilnir postal deficit
It is believed that If the magaslnea could
ba required to j.y wli.iw It c.mts the gov
ernment to carry their advertising pages
tho department's revenues would aoon
grow large enough to warrant 1 cent pos
tage on first class mat).
"Newspaper are not Included In the
plan for higher rata on advertising mat
ter because, being chiefly of local distribu
tion, they do not employ the malls to any
suoh extent a tha widely circulating mag
aslnea." Whlla the loaa resulting from the low
poataga rata on second class mall I the
greatest In tha postal service the loss on
rural delivery service is very considerable.
Tha appropriations annually granted to
maintain tha rural delivery system, how
ever, aa pointed out In tha report, are ex
pended In tha Interest of a vast population.
Mr. Hitchcock urges tha wisdom of fur
ther axtenalon of this system even at a
considerable lote to tha government. Ha
point out. also, the business wisdom of
tho consolidation during tha last year of
tha atar route and rural delivery system,
tho consolidation 'having baen the means
of affecting a large aavlng and of increas
ing tha efficiency of the aervlce.
Mr. Hitchcock reviews the work already
accomplished looking to tha establishment
of aoatal savings banks. A trial of the
new ay st ana will ba made beginning Janu
ary 1. at on poatofflca In each atate
and territory of the union. The amount
appropriated by congreaa for thla trial waa j
fluo.Ouu. All of tha offices selected for the ;
trial ar of the second rlae, wage earners j
being particularly benefited. It ia ex
pected that tha new postal savings system
wilt ba extended to many other offlcea be
fore tha and of tit current fiscal year.
Limited Parcel. Post.
A renewal of tlie previous recommenda
tion for a limited parcels post service on
rural routta la made. Mr. Hitchcock ex
presses tha hope that con ureas will author
ise tha delivery on rural route of parcels
weighing as high' as eleven pound. This
achema can ba put into operation with little
If any expense to tha government.
A recommendation Is made that congres
sional
uthortty be given the dcpartni.nt
for the Issuance of postal notes In amounts
sot iceedlng HO at a lower fee than Ik

crusade by the Posioffiee department
against the fraudulent nee of tlie ma l
has been pushed with great vino-. L'urlng
the lust few month the principal officers
(of thirty-four corporation and firms have
been placed under arrest for awlndllng the
puhlle by this method.
"It is estimated." the report says, "that
the eighty Important cases recently
ran people In less than a decade fully
.llC'.W;.0i)0."
Mr. Hitchcock strongly urges that the
entire postal service be taken out of
politics. He aays:
"The recent order of the president classi
fying, on the recommendation of the de
partment, all assistant postmasters was an
important step In tha )m 11 1 direction. As
a still more Important reform, presidential
postmasters of all grades from tha first
rluss to the third, should be placed in
the classified service. This uction. which
Is earnestly recommended would unques
tionable result in a still better standard
of e: vice."
A gtneral extension of the civil service
rules to fourth class postmaster I recom
mended, although some disadvantages have
developed in the application of the civil
service rules to postmasters of that class.
In conclusion, Postmaster General Hitch
cock expresses the hope that congress will
see its way clear to grant an annual leave
of absence of thirty days to postoffice
clerks, city letter carriers, and to railway
postal clerks who are required to work
six days or more a week throughout the
year.

TITTr-Bina. Fa., lec. ll.-Throughout
the coal fields of Pennsylvania, urtilo and!
est IiR.nla there was canvassing,
rallying and parading; of miners today to
clove one of the campaigns for the elec
tion for district and national officers of
the I'nlted Mine Workers of America. The
election will bu held throughout this coun-
try nnd Canada on Tuesday and the offi
cial returns announced In January. The
fnlted Mine Workers now number 3uO,X,
embracing every nationality, even Indians,
Japanese and Chinese enjoying the right
to vote.
The re-electjon of Thomas I.. Iewls of
Bridgeport. O., as president is opposed by
a faction whose candidate for the office
Is John P. White of Iowa, a former vice
president of the national organisation, in
the Pittsburg district the fight becomes
acut because Francis J. Keehan president
of the Pittsburg district, has allied him
self with the White aupportere and con
ducted a campaign against Iewls. The
tycwls faction In turn lias fought for Fee
han's defeat as president of the local dis
trict, having named A. A. Gibbons as a
Lewis candidate for the place.
Lenin Hay Oatlook Uriah.
In a pre-election statement President
lyewlB sums up the national situation, from
his viewpoint, thus:
"The Pnited Mine Workers' organization
ha? lost none of its prestige through the
strenuous times we have had this year.
Outside of the Irwin strike. aOO.OQO men
suspended work on April 1 and were Idle
tor aeveral weeks. One hundred and fifty
thousnnd were on strike for several
months. During all the time that our men
were on strike there were no violations of
tho laws of the land, a remarkable fact
considering the cosmopolitan makeup of
our membershlD. It speaks volumes for
thS progress ofthe miners' union.
"We have about 7.000 mine workers on
strike in Colorado. Ohio and Nova Scotia.
Striking miners will be successful In all
of these districts. The strike In the Irwin
f'eld is In charge of tho officers of the
Pittsburg district. Those men have been
on strlks many months, putting up a splen
cid flgh.t fr their rights. I would like to
see the strike settled, the rights of the
striking miners protected and the suffering
and privation that now exists brought to
an end. We are sending $20,000 every week
to the Irwin district to relieve the strikers
and their families.
"It Is true that the members of our or
ganization stood loyally by me In the fight
and it Is to them that I look for a vindi
cation of my work as their executive offi
cer during the year."

AMERICAN COIN IN PORTUGAL
Claim Mad that Former SI is Stewart
Will Supply Rom M Israel with
Money for Revolution.
PARIS. Dec. 11. (Special Cablegram.)
English tories are not alone In their fear
of tha American dollar. The Portuguese
republic alao will have to reckon with It,
according to well Informed circles here.
Tha dollars of tha American prlnceaa of
Braganxa, formerly Miss Anita Stewart of
New York, are said to be financing the
plans of Dora Miguel to stir up a counter
revolution in Portugal, not with the idea
of returning Manuel to tha throne, but
making Miguel king and the former Mlsa
Stewart a royal prlnceaa, and perhaps
ultimately queen. .
Dom Miguel has been in consultation with
a number of friends In Portugal, and their
plans hava been matured. Amply supplied
with money, they ar. to foster Miguellst
sentiment, especially In tha army, and to
stir up dissatisfaction with tha republic.
It la said money goes a long way In Portu
gal, and that men high In the councils of
the republicans, both In civil and military
life, can ba won over to tha cause If tho

MISS MARSHALL CAPTAINS TEAM
Abler to Read the tboe Wearer's
I. We by l.oaklaaj ln the Kylets
of the Pont Tesgery that
lie Wears.
NEW YORK. !ec. It -(Special Tele
gram.) "With women bootblacks In the
new Pennsylvania station, women suf
frage can not be so very far away. We
have women lawyers, women doctor, den-
! tlsts, orators and so women bootblacks
ought to convince men that women can
vote." At least this Is the argument of
Miss Lottie Marshall, captain of the boot
black tram In the new terminal.
Miss Marshall likes to black boots. She
can't for the life of her see anything un
dignified or unbecoming In It. She can see
thnt there Is as much art to It as many
a more aesthetic vocation, therefore she
Is one of the most pains taking, polite
bootblacks that ever looked a patent
leather shoe In the eyelets. But of course,
she Is an unusual girl, too, or she would
not take advantage of her unique posi
tion to study women from their heels up.
"Of course. I don't black and but
Women's shoes." she said.
"Oh. yes; I took a rogulnr course In
bootblacklng. The work Isn't hard, once
you get used to It, and the many strange
feet you meet In thi courte of a day pre
vents it from becoming monotonous. I
can read a woman's whole life In her heels
and the way she wears her shoos.
"Women with old shoes that are a little
run-down a.t the heel and a trifle worn
at the sides are almost always rich.
Women who wear small, high heels are
generally laxy and poor. Heels that turn
outward generally Indicate extravagance;
those that ttirn in, aa a rule, belong to
nervous, hlgh-Btrtng women who cannot
afford to hava more than one pair at a
time.
"A neatly-patched shoe, with straight
heels and a tendency to wear at tha toes,
usually belong to a selfish, niggardly na
tureIt's no use looking for a tip In that
direction.
"Why, there's nothing wa can't do when
we make up our minds. I thought at first
my arms wouldn't, be strong enough for
the work. But they are really too strong
by that I mean I don't havo customers
enough for my energy.
"If I thought." Miss Marshall' added
with modest pride, "that 1 should have
to turn prize fighter to get the ballot, I'd
do It willingly.
."I advise girls to give up manicuring
for a change and try bootblacklng. It can
be made Just as nice as manicuring, too.
J Everything depends on one's being an
artist."
