News of the YYeeK .The attempt to arrest thirty-two miners in West Virginia for a viola tion of the blanket injunction issued by Judge Keller last August, resulted in a battle between the federal marsh als and a sheriff's posse in whicn three men were killed, three mortally wounded and a large number slightly wounded. Seventy-three arrests were made, ten by the marshals and the re mainder by the sheriff. A somewhat extended account was given in the dailies concerning the battle, but af- . ter that they shut up like clams. What has happened since nobody knows. ' Perhaps the dailies have come to the conclusion that the Keller blanket, in junction was such an outrageous vio lation of the natural rights of man as well as of the constitution, that the best thing to do was to say nothing. the bill and make a persistent fight to that .. Senator Beveridge undertook to tack another British idea on to this govern ment the other day. He introduced a bill to appoint a commissioner to rep resent Aiaska instead of a delegate electee by the people. That's "Eng lish, you know." c ' I sir J . In response to a resolution of the senate, the interstate commerce com mission reports that for the United States the total par value of railway securities is $11,724,035,829, and their market value $8,351,103,523. The capi tal stock is stated to be, par value, $6,021,364,502 and the market value $3,250,144,596. The par value of the funded debt is stated to be $5,702, 671,327 and the market value $5, 100,958,927. ; The defeat in the house of Senator Patterson's bill to appoint a commia sioii to arrange for international bi metallism has resulted in tacking the same thing on to the sundry civil ap propriation bill in the senate and ap propriating $100,000 to pay the ex penses of the commission. It is said that the senate committee on appro priations will insist on retaining it in United States Consul McWade, lo cated at Canton, China, reports that an American physician there has dis covered a cure for leprosy and has actually cured several patients who have been -discharged and declared to be in perfect health. His method is the' use of sanitation and antl-sep'tics. The highest Chinese officials are lend ing their aid- to the general introduc tion of the treatment. It is said that the new legislation against rebates and discriminations applies to the granting of passes and that the road3 will hereafter l. grant none. The pass business has been a great drain on the roads and several times "gentlemen's agreements" have been made to abolish It which were never observed longer than about 24 hours. The law will give an excuse to the roads to cut off a good deal of it, but as far as the abolishment of all passes are concerned, that will be got around by the time the next republi can campaign begins. Speaker Henderson, like all the great pets of the republican party and the corporations, goes to Wall street at the close of his term. in crime, gets the long term and a regular republican, L. Heisler Ball, the short one. - - President Roosevelt has called an extra. session of the senate to ratify some treaties which have been block aded by Quay's tactics on the state hood bill. ' Mabina, the Filipino patriot, has at last taken the oath of allegiance and gone back to Manila. One or two oth ers who were imprisoned with him on the island of Guam refused and were deported to Hong Kong. When the Venezuelan ship, the Restaurador, was turned over by the Germans, the Venezuelans claimed that she had been sacked of every thing valuable that could be carried away. The Germans deny the story and say that while the ship was in their possession $12,000 worth of re pairing was done and that they left 150 tons of coal in the ship for which they made no charge. The truth about these South American affairs is very hard to find out Pronounce cTMy Case Incurable, Said I Would Die Of Heart Disease. Dr. Miles' Heart Cur . Brought Good Health. "I have every reason to recommend the Dr. Mile Remedies as the Heart Cure saved toy. life. I in i large man, considerably vor six feet in height, weigh nearly three hundred pounds. Some years ago my heart was so seriously affected that I never expec ted to get well. Doctors pronounced my case in cur able. I noticed your advertisement in some paper, and bought six bottles of the Heart Cure. I f ;lt great relief andiniproved so I continued until 1 had taken twelve bot tles. My trouble was organic and I never expected to be permanently cured, but thanks to Dr. Miles1 Heart Cure, I have kept in eood health and have been able to follow ray profession contin ually since first taking the remedies eight years ago.

The Aldrich bill authorizes the sec retary of the treasury to receive as security for government deposits (1) United States bonds, as at present; (2) bonds of any state; (3) bonds of cit ies at least twenty-five years old, with at least 50,000 population, with a debt not more than 10 per cent of their as sessed valuation, and which have not defaulted in Interest or principal of their debt for ten years; (4) bonds of railroads ' that have for at least ten years paid dividends on their entire capital stock of at least 4 per cent annually. A provision of the bill also permits the acceptance of the new Panama canal 2 per cent bonds as "se curity for circulation" when issued. The republicans were lifeely in a tight box when ; they' unseated a duly elected- democrat just before the close of the session. As there was no politi cal necessity, the republicans already having a good working majority, the only conclusion that can be reached is that the man whom they seated was in a position to ruin the party if he was not seated. Perhaps he had in formation alid could give evidence that would have made it very unpleasant for some of the leaders. The fight that the democrats have since kept up is justifiable. ' It is said that W. R. Merriam, di rector of the census bureau, will short ly resign and go to Wall street There is where all the real pets of the re publican party finally land. Besides giving the attorney general $500,000 to prosecute the trusts, congress-has also provided two assistant attorney generals and a lot of clerks. Knox now has all the appliances fur nished him for "trust busting" and if he don't bust them what excuse will he make? No doubt he will conjure up some sort of a one that will be satis factory to the partisan Idiots who al ways, "vote er straight." Government by injunction grows. Judge Adams of the United States dis trict court has enjoined 1.100 firemen and trainmen of the Wabash from striking for higher wages. They have been voting 'er straight right along let them take their medicine. - "Gas" Addlcks couldn't reach the senatorial persimmon himself, but he did like D. E.

Cortelyou, secretary of commerce, has large ideas of the im portance of the new department He wants over $600,000 for expenses and a $7,000,000 building for an office. The new head of the new department ap preciates the importance of the office for which he has been selected and appreciates -the opportunities it af fords, for usefulness. A $7,000,000 BUILDING would be none too good for the depart ment of commerce. . It should be an architectural gem and should be dis tinctly appropriate to the idea of com merce. Old Corinth was a commer cial center. The noble Corinthian architecture of the ancient Greeks was developed out of the enlightened self ishness known as commerce. We want in this new building the American ideal original, significant and ornate. THE BANKERS RESERVE LIFE will watch the development of this department with great interest, for under its roof will one day be housed a bureau of life insurance. By that time the young Nebraska company will be one of the greatest western life companies. - Already taking rank among the best, its report J;o the audi tor for 1903 shows a phenomenal growth, and a promise for the future which makes alien competitors green with envy. ."
