TITLE TO BLACK' HILLS ROAD
Federal Court Upholds Decision of Su
prcsme Court of Sout Dakota
Washington The Bupreme court of
the United States has dismissed for
want of jurisdiction the case of the
Dakota, Wyoming & Missouri River
Railroad company against John D.
Crouch and Francis Seitzerding. The
suit grew out of the contention over
the ownership of thirty-four miles of
road between Rapid City and Mystic,
In Pennington county, South Dakota.
Crouch and Seitzerding claimed . title
through the purchase of mechinics
liens and the state courts sustained
their contention. Today's action of
the supreme court is equivalent to the
affirmation of that decision.

Is a true story of a young officer in
the navy who met knowledge in a
landsman when. he least expected it.
While his ship was in harbor a volun
teer naval brigade came on board for
a little practical instruction.
The young lieutenant was , detailed
to give the landsman ..their lesson in
gun maneuvering. He showed them
all the different types of guns and ex
plained their mechanism. Once, how
eyer, his knowledge failed him. One
of the guns was a new model, and
something about the breech mechan
ism was novel and perplexing. , .
"This, lemev is a new attach
ment for for ." One of the naval
brigade spoke up: "Excuse 'me, sir,
It's for range finding." , Then he went
on to explain, but after a few words
stopped and retired. "How do you
know what you're . talking about?
This device wasn't put on any ship
until three weeks ago." "I know, sir,
but you see, I invented it" American

HEARST HITS HARD
He Hurls Defiance at the Pirates and
Buccaneers of Business
and Politics
Albany, N. Y. William Randolph
Hearst warmed up to his work and
in. speeches at Albany, Troy, and Co-
hoes turned himself loose on trusts
and capitalists in earnest. Each of
his speeches was an echo of the other
and. they, all were fired at receptive
and responsive audiences.
I feel confident," said Mr. Hearst,
that two-thirds of the people of great
er, ftew York are in favor of this
movement, to wrest the control of gov
ernment from the trusts and the great
public service corporations which now
control it in their own interests, and
restore it to the hands of the people
to be conducted for the greatest good
of the greatest number.
'The question merely is, whether
two-thirds of the people of New York
will be able to accomplish anythiher
against the great aggregations of cap
i'al which control not only the ma
chinery of parties but the machinery
of government in nearly every depart
ment. The men who have been put
n office and who hold the power of
office wr re put there by the trusts and
stand ready to serve the trusts to the
last desoerate extremity."
Referring to the mayoralty contest
last fall in New York and the effort
to have the ballots recounted, Mr.
Hearst reiterated his attacks upon At
torney General Mayer and the mem
bers of the republican legislature who
prevented the measures desired in tha
direction. He. continued:
"We do not know what particular
outrage, what final blow to popular
institutions", to American rights and
liberties may be dealt at this elec
tion, but we do know that every trust
owned officer In every branch of the
government will do his best to defeat
the will of the people and to continue
the trusts that suckle him in power.
It is confidence in such crimes, be
lief in such betrayal of, the people hv
such officials that allows Wall stree
to scorn these demonstrations of poo
ular feeling and to laughingly bet thre
to one that the immense majority o
the people of New York will not be
able to prevail against the power of
corrupt wealth:
"I think the election in New York
City last year was won by not less
than 30.000. I think the election in
Greater New York this year will be
won by from 150.000 to 250.000 if the
people are not by some treachery de
prived of their riehts as citizens.
"I believe that the majority will be
somewhere about the majority in the
whole state, as I do not think the
republican party will be able to bear
its load of popular condemnation and
stageer to the Harlem river with any
majority at all.
"I warned the people last year that
immense sums would be used to de
feat them; that the great trusts and
corporations would go to any lencth
to defeat them. The people listened,
but doubtless hardly believed that fo
serious a situation menaced them, yet
the result established the truth of
every warning I had given them.
"Tonight I solemnly warn the peo
ple of this state tint even more des
perate measures will be taken by the
corniDt corporations at this election.
"All that Belmont, and Rvan. and
Morcan, and Rockefeller, nad Rogers
spent to buy. or bribe, or steal the
mayor's chair for their puppet, Mc-
Clellan, will be lost if a governor and
legislature are elected who will see
to it that the votes that we have
fought to preserve are honestly count
ed ps cast.

tie of the trusts would be driven out
of office or removed for criminal com
plicity, and all the greedy hopes . of
gain of tlKse financial outlaws would
be destroyed.
"The public booty they had within
their grasp would be taken away
from them; the millions and hundreds
of millions they had expected to make
out of the peonle's property by nil-
age and plunder and by oppression
and extortion would be lost to them'.
In honest business they would have
no advantage over honest business

"When the Independence League
netitions were before this election
board they were allowed to be mutil
ated and altered and partly destroyed,
and an attempt was made to throw
out the Independence League petitions
and indorsement completely. I am
astounded to learn that this attempt
was confirmed this afternoon bv a de
cision from the appellate division of
the sunreme court.
"If the criminal trusts and corpor
ations can control the machinery of
both old parties and stifle any inde

you hope to secure?
"You may nominate candidates, but
only such candidates as your corpora

your vote, but your vote will only be

American citizens, but you only retain
