Pen- dergast, also of Bemidji, an old soldier and one of the strongest supporters of the republican party to be found in the state. Mr. Funkley’s spsech vas a very meritorous effort and was well received by his former fellow townsmen. He spoke mostly on state issues and ex- ploded many of the claims of Governor Johnson as to the latter’s snatching the North Star state from the jaws of utter ruin aud bankrupcy by strenu- ous epistles to state officials and Display Magnificent!

Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 31.—A Brook Haven (Miss.) disyatch says: As a result of the production of “The Clansman” in this city last week and threats circulated by whites that a Ku Klux Klan was being organized to drive negroes from the community the blacks have formed themselves into a band of whitecaps and already have started a series of depredations against the whites. News has reached here from Bear Creek, in Lincoln county, that Bud Godbold, a young white farmer, was fired upon by negro whitecaps while riding through a lonely stretch of woods. His horse was killed, but Godbold escaped. Ac- cording to Golbold’s story a white maa riding 100 vards behind him was si- multaneously attacked by the blacks. Officers have gone to the scene of the ambush. The story circulated that whites would form a Ku Klux Klan was done as a joke, it is asserted, but the blacks took the jokers at their word. The excitement here is intense. White men of Fayette county, Tenn., will meet at Somerville to organize a “White Men's league” for protection against a rumored uprising of ne groes. It is said that a party of ne groes has possession of eighty rifles and- that this fact is responsible for the movement. The approaching elec tion has much to do with the agita tion.

SECRETARY TAFT TO VISIT ISLANDS 'WILL BE ON HAND WHEN NEW GOVERNMENT IS INAUGU- RATED IN MARCH, ‘Washington, Oct. 31.—The president is preparing to redeem his promise made to the Philippine people through Secretary Taft that they shall have a parliament of their own, conditioned upon their good behavior for a term of two years, and it is understood that Secretary Taft himself will proceed to the Philippines next spring to witness the installation of the new form of representative government. March 27, 1905, the Philippine census was pub- lished and consequently two years from that date, March 27, 1907, under the terms of the act of congress the president will direct the Philippine commission to call a general election for the choice of delegates to what will be known as the Philippine as- sembly. This body is to take over all legislative powers heretofore exer- cised by the Philippine commission in that pert of the archipelago not inhab- ited by Moros or non-Christian tribes. As this date draws near the Philip- pine people are showing signs of agi- tation and to the officials here it is evident that they are Expecting S8ome Benefits that cannot at once be realized. For In.ntance, the assembly of provisional governors recently in session in Ma- nila with the view to arranging the preliminaries for the meeting of the Philippinc. assembly is reported to have recommended that the suffrage be widely extended. It is pointed out here that this is not possible for the reason that the act of congress under which the assembly will be convened expressly states the qualifications of voters. These, in brief, are that the voter. must be at least twenty-three years of age (which was the Spanish fequirement), must be able to read and write either Spanish or English, or must own a small amount of prop- erty or must have been in the past an officeholder under the Spanish govern- ment. These qualifications were framed upon the old Spanish practice and no Philippine assembly can change them. The new assembly or legisla- ture will consist of two houses, to be known as the Philippine commission and the Philippine assembly, the latter to consist of not less than fifty nor more than 100 members, It is prob- able that the present commission will be merged in the upper house. FILIPINOS NEED SQUARE DEAL. Former Governor General ide Dis- cusses Tariff Question. San Francisco, Oct. 31.—Henry Clay Ide, late governor general of the Phil- ippine islands, has arrived here on the liner Hongkong Maru, accompanied by his daughter, Miss Marjorie Ide. He has come home after more than five years’ service in_the Far East to at- tend the marriage of his daughter to The wedding will take place at the Ide home in St. Johnsbury, Vt., shortly after Governor Ide’s arrival. Speaking of conditions In the islands Governor Ide said: “Ihe Philippines are today in better shape than they ever were under Spanish or American rule. The labor question is no longer a problem. “What the Philippines do need, how- ever, is a square deal in the matter of the tariff. By annexation we killed Spanish markets for the sugar and to- bacco of the Philippines and by our tariff we barred these products from the United States. Both industries are today in a state of prostration, “The policing of the islands is al- most entirely in the hands of the na- tives and except in Leyte and Samar, where hill tribes make war on the lowlanders, all is peace in the Philip- pines.” CARRIED CREW OF SEVEN.

MINNESOTA. DECLARE THEY PREFER DEATH TO BEING TAKEN BACK TO UTAH TO STARVE. PAY WO ATTETION TO SOLDIERS MAIN BODY OF UTES MOVING RAP- IDLY TOWARD CHEYENNE RESERVATION, & 8heridan, Wyo., Oct. 31.—“We are going to visit Chief White Cow Bull of the Cheyennes at any cost and will not be taken back to Utah to starve. ‘We would rather die first,” is the sub- stance of the answer of Chief Kan- napp to-the soldiers. The Indians are getting bolder and pay no attention to the soldiers. A fight was almost started during the night when an Indian encountered a sentinel of the Tenth cavalry. The Indian refused to turn out of the path and rudely bumped against the sol- dier. Only the intervention of some cavalrymen prevented a serious en- counter, as other Indians came up. As the Utes are continually on the move in small bands cowboys are hired by the soldiers as scouts to keep track of the Indians. The latest re- port from the front locates the main Ute band in the vicinity of Moorhead, going rapidly toward the Cheyenne reservation. Two more troop trains are reported out of Fort Robinson. TROOPS ON THE MOVE. Additional Cavalry in Pursuit of the Indians. Sheridan, Wyo., Oct. 31.—Colonel Augur and the Third squadron of the Tenth cavalry from Fort Robinson ar- rived over the Burlington road and detrained at Arvada, the troops soon afterward taking the field for the front. It is understood that Colonel Augur is in command of all military forces and as soon as his troops arrive at the Indian camp a demonstration will be made. The scout sent in from the front to meet Colonel Augur re- ports the arrival of Colonel Rogers, commanding the Sixth cavalry, who came overland from Fort Mead. The Indians are becoming more bold. Dock Spear and E. H. Gottings, who encountered a band ‘of thirty In- dians, were fired upon and one of their horses killed. The Spear round- up wagon was looted by another band of Utes, who bound and gagged the camp cook and carried off all supplies and bedding. Old settlers near Moor- head, Mont., are sending the women and children to places of safety and have turned the Spear blacksmith shop into a fort, banking the sides and boring loopholes in the log walls. Colonel Kensel, who was govern- ment scout and interpreter in the battle of Wounded Knee, says the In- dians mean fight and gives it as his opinion that they have sent messen- gers to seek the assistance of the war- like Cheyenhes. The Indians say they want President Roosevélt to give them the Powder River valiey for a hunting ground and persist in their determination not to be taken back to Utah. <] The settlers along the Powder river say that if the Indians are allowed to remain in that vicinity the settlers will arganize and exterminate the redskins in spite of the troops. STENSLAND WILL TESTIFY. of Cashier Hering Beging at Chicago. Chicago, Oct. 31.—Paul O. Stens- land, the former president of the Mil- waukee Avenue Savings bank and now a convict in the Joliet penitentiary, returned to Chicago during the day in the custody of an officer to testify in the case of Henry W.

Tokio, Oct. 31.—The Japanese gov- ernment is pleased with the action of the Washington authorities and be- lieves that a satisfactory result may be confidently expected from Secretary Metcalf’'s mission to San Francisco in connection with the exclusion of Japa- nese children from schools attended by white children. It is believed here that the acute stage in the matter has been passed and it can be said that no | anti-American feeling exists here in any form, LABOR SCARCE EVERYWHERE, Canal Commission Searches World for Workmen. ‘Washington, Oct. 31.—Through their efforts to obtain labor for work on the isthmian canal members of th2 canal commission have found that there is a dearth of labor in practically all parts of the world. So great is the demand for labor in connection with railroad building and other improve- ments on a large scale that countries which formerly have sent thousands of laborers to this country monthly are now using their labor at home. Leroy Park, the agent for the com- mission, who has been in Spain for some months recruiting laborers, has found many difficulties in obtaining the Spanish laborers, who have shown themselves so well adapted to condi tions in Panama. Many hundreds of the men whom he has sent to the canal zone are writing favorable re- ports to their friends in Spain and in a short time Mr. Park expects to send a large number of workmen.

Appleton, Wis., Oct. 31.—One hun- dred and fifteen students, comprised of boys in the sophomore and fresh- man classes in Lawrence university, have been suspended because they re- fused to pay $27 damages to property as a result of recent class seraps. President Plantz declared at chapel exercises that in no event will any of the boys be permitted to return unless the entire sum is paid. The suspended students, with spe- clally prepared banners, paraded the streets of the city at noon and de- clare they will leave for home before they will pay the money. DOUBLE MURDER SUSPECTED. Two Workmen Found Dead in Burn ing Car. Rapid City, S. D, Oct. 31.—Two ‘workmen employed by the Milwaukee railroad were found dead in a burning box car.

At an early hour fire was discovered in one of the company’s boarding cars in the city and as soon as it was ex: tinguished the lifeless bodies of the two men, apparently smothered, were discovered in the car. The authorities have four men un- der arrest and also have a witness who claims that he saw one of the accused men fire the car. HOOE IS CONVICTED.
