DEH MOINES, July 17. (Special.) Sena-
tor George Cosson and Assistant Attorney
General John Fletcher will go to Ottumwa
tomorrow morning, to tuke up the case of
the effort on the part of certain iersuns
to have removed from office Mayor T. J.
Phillips. This will be the third trial In the
state under the state laws which provide
for removal of officers for failure to per
form their official duties. In both the other
cases the courts ordered removal.
The Phillips case is perhaps peculiar in
that the mayor undoubtedly has had back
of htm a public sentiment that sustains
him In his attitude. While one of the ac
cusations against him Is for Intoxication
while he Is mayor, yet this Is least of the
charges. He Is accused of having main

OY8TER BAY. N. Y.. July 18.-Theodore
Roosevelt saw no poll .ans today and
talked no politics. He talked of cows and
conservation, of tree chopping, the state
or affairs In Africa, and the negro In the
south, but there was nothing In his con
versation to Indicate that he knew me dif
ference between an insurgent and a regular.
Colonel Roosevelt did say, however, that
he had decided definitely to speak before
the conservation congress in St. Paul on
September 6.
The colonel was hard at It all the after
noon chopping down trees. As he finished
chopping, three of the Roosevelt cows
ambled placidly down the shady, winding
roadway on their way to the barn. They
were propelled by ropes hitched to a couple
of farm hands.
"Do you ever milk the cows?" Bomeone
asked.
N6, I can't milk cows," the colonel ad-
nutted. "The last time I tried was many
years ago on a ranch In North Dakota,
where we only had condensed milk morning
and night. I chased a cow llckety-spllt for
two miles over everything we came to;
rooed her, threw her and turned her upside
down. .But the result was not as good as
I expected. I got precious little milk."
For the next week the ex-president hopes
to keep away from politics and have a
quiet time of it. He expects to have al
most no visitors, and to put In th time pre
paring some of the speeches for his west
ern trip. He said today that his speech

First Article.
To the Editor of The Bee: With your
permission It Is my purpose to write a se
ries of articles upon an Issue which some
people seem disposed to force upon the
voters of this state In the coming cam
paign. This issue is wnst is Known an
county option, it Is with no vain boasting
that I now speak for myself. More than a
quarter of a Century a no the present writer
went Into office as dlotrlct attorney of
the Sixth district. The so-called Slocumb
law had jut gone into effect It was
looked upon 4s a temperance measure; and
I ray, and challenge contradiction, that I
have prosecuted more -men, civilly and
criminally under that law than any man
In this state. It was the writer who ob
tained the decision of the supreme court
that a sale of liquor on Sunduy or on
election day Should be prosecuted by In
dictment; it was the writer who obtained
the decision that that part of lhapter CO
which punished intoxication was constitu
tional; It was the writer who obtained the
interpretation of chapter 00, known as the
Slocumb, law. In lf0 I made seventy-nlhe
speeches In this state In favor of the pro
hibitory amendment to the constitution. I
have been where addled eggs flew, smelled
and tasted them myself, for one struck
me In tho mouth. I lived on the border of
the state and fought shoulder to shoulder
with State Senator Robinson of my home
town to keep the sandbar saloon out of
this county. Dakota was prohibition, Iowa
was prohibition, Kansas was prohibition.
Nebraska was a veritable valley of
Gehenna for the prohibition Jerusalem
about It. I thought, as a matter of de
fense, that we ought to have the same po
lice regulations as the states about us.
But today I thank Almighty God from the
fullness of my grateful heart that prohi
bition wits not adopted. In the short space
of twelve months 100,000 of very valuable
citizens and a large amount of capital
sought an asylum with us. The nomads
left when prohibition was repealed in
South Dakota. This state never had such
a boom In its history.
l'rogreulve Prohibition.
I expect to bo called a renegade, -a Judas
brewery capper and everything but a
gentleman, but I will say as Themlstocles
said to Eiuryblades, "Strike if you will, but
here." I expect to be criticised for send
ing these articles to a republican paper.
I am not writing as a democrat, but .as a
citizen. Never for one hour of my mortal
existence, did I believe In prohibition as
an abstract proposition. Now I freely con
fess that much can be said for county op
tion as an abstract proposition. The argu
ment against it does not lie against the
mere enlargement of the option unit, to
embrace a rural district adjacent to a city.
The objection Is that it Is cowardly and
progressive prohibition. Its advocates do
not deny that prohibition is the plus-ultra
of county option. No time will be wasted
upon county option on its own merits. But
I hear a lion in the lobby roar:
Say, Mr. Speaker, shall we shut the door?
And keep him there, or shall we let
mm in,
, To try If we can turn him out again?
If county option passes the next legisla
ture what would be the result Then would
follow the harvest of the prohibition orator.
a campaign wouio De started in every
county In this state with, probably, the
exception .of Boyd, fuming, Platte, Col
fax, Hall, Dodtre and. Richardson. It would
cost the people of the atate $4,023,000.' A ma
jonty or tne counties would go dry; I con
cede It.- You' are familiar, Mr. Editor, with
the fox in the stable who had lost his tall
and who went Into an assembly of foxes
and tried to persuade them to have their
tails cut off. 'Any man elected to the legis
lature In one of the dry counties, would
be compelled to declare for state-wide pro
hibition. Statewide prohibition would be
enacted. Then what?
Ait Experience.
I will tell you a little of my experience.
A town in my own district, in one of the
counties which I have named, had gone dry
by a small majority. A fellow thought he
knew what the citizens wanted better than
they knew themselves. So he started
tiger, which was not blind. His saloon was
open and above board, In defiance to the
law. Oh) How zealous and optlmlstlo Is
youth! On the trial, I proved, first, the
venue; that this man- was the proprietor of
the place; that on Its front was displayed
the sign, "Krug's Lager Beer;" that Inside
was a bar with beer glasses and the .usual
paraphernalia; that on the first day of the
week, commonly called Sunday, five men
entered his place of business, one of these
threw down a silver coin, 26c, and called
for five drink of beer; that the proprietor
set out five glasses, known as beer glasses,
and. filled them with a brown liquor covered
with white froth and having the general
appearance of beer; that the men drank
the liquor; that the proprietor swept the
rnsney into his drawer. The defendant took
tie stand to contradict some unimportant
matter. But he was hot-headed; and I got
hint rolled; and he testified to more than he
meant to say. I insisted that he waived his
constitutional right not to testify- against
himself by taking the stand. The court held
with me. Then by a merciless cross-exam
ination, I extorted from htm the direct
statement that he sold the beer. The Jury
retired at I p. m.; they were out the re
mainder of the afternoon, all night and un
till 10 o'clock a. m. the next day and was
d'scharged because they could not agree.
Mr. Nesbltt of Tekamah was on the Jury;
was for conviction; and will confirm all
my statements in regard to the matter.
This Is the farce' that will bo re-enacted In,
at least, twelve counties of Nebraska, It
ever we enact state-wide prohibition.
Cannot He Kn forced.
I am against prohibition in Nebraska, be
cause It cannot be enforced. We have quite
enough of laws In this state which are a
dead letter. We have a law which pun
ishes swearing; we have a law which
would punish two ladles for playing
backgammon In a hotel (any game except
an athletic game Is the statute); we have
a law which punishes treating In a saloon;
we have a law aga.nst playing base ball on
Sunday; we have a law which would put a
man in the penitentiary for having a slot
machine In his possession, "keep gamble
device," are the words of the statute. But
In subsequent articles I shall argue that,
given tlio most rigid enforcement, prohibi
tion Is not a condition to be doslred any-
whore, certainly not In Nebraska.
I expect to convince every reader who Is
not drunk with wine of his own fanaticism.
or tho absinthe of his own ambition.
I will save anyone the trouble of remind
ing mo that I was sometime an honorary
member of the W. C. T. U., and that I
once signed a petition to the Nebraska leg
islature to pass a .county-option law. I
