That the new law prohibiting any but qualitied electors from engaging in the re- tail ‘sale of Intoxicating liquors, which went_ into effect in this state on March 1, does not apply to bartenders and porters, is the optnion of Attorney General H. W. Byers. Mr; Byers, when in Councll Bluffs Sat. md; was abked By certain interested saloonmen regarding the new law and he said that it was merely intended to pro- hibit any person other than a qualified elector of the city, town or township in Wwhich the business was carried on to con- duct 'a saloon or engage In the retall sale of intoxicating lquors. “The law was never intended” declared the attorny gen- eral “to apply to bartenders or porters merely serving as employes of the pro- prietor of a saloon.” When ‘the law went fnto effect last Tuesday, two or three men engaged as bartenders in local saloons, who had not been residents of the city sufficlently long to mmke them qualified electors lost thelr Jobs as thelr employers had been Informed that the law applled equally to bartend- ers and porters, as to the owner of the saloon. Now that the attorney general has given it as his opinion that the new law does not apply to them, these bartenders will be able to resume their former posi- tiona, —_— You know Dad Hubbard. fle pays cash for butter, eggs, hides and poultry.

PP “ Council Bluffs ' MABRAY CASE SET THIS WEEK Small Army of Witnesses Coming to | Attend Trial |MANY MIKE SUITS TO COME UP Il)o-hllll It They Cam'Be Reached Owing to Crowd of Dusiness on the Doekets of Court. Councll Bluffs this weék will entertain another convention of Mabray ‘‘Mikes," a large number of whom will be here as witnesses at the trial of J. C. Mabray and other alleged members of the “big store’ swindling syndicate in the United States court. Many of these jes were here last September at the Wime the federal grand Jury returned the blanket Indict- ment against Mabray and his alleged as- soclates, but a large number of the wit- nesses who have been subpoenaed for the approaching trial were not brought be- fore the federal grand jury. It ls sald that the government his subpoenaed over 100 witnesses for the Mabray trial, many of whom are men who went up against the fake horse races, prize fights and wrestling matches, which the gang is charged with pulling off in Council Bluffs during 1908. Nothing has been given out as yet by the federal authorities aw to the number of defendants named in the blanket In- dictment returned last September who are to be tried with Mabray this week. At the time the demurrer to the indictment against Mabray was argued before Judge Smith McPherson in this city last January, the court requested that a list of tae de- fendants in the Mabray case then In custody be furnished him. List of Defendants. The following list was furnished the court by Postoffice Inspector J. 8, Swen- son In_ fail: | Thomas Ga J. C. Mabray, and Eddie K. Morrls, Coun’ cll “Blutts; Bert R.

Since then additional arrests have been made by the federal officers in dlfferent parts of the country and several of the men in jall at that time have since secured their release on bonds. Among the men indicted here arrested recently were Wil- lard Powell at Jacksonville, Fla., and E. B, L. Woodward at Fort Worth, Tex. Both gave bonds for their appearance here. . Harry Forbes Coming. Postoftice Inspector Swenson made a trip last week to Troy, N. Y., for the pur- pose It was understood of bringing Harry Forbes, a prize fighter, to Council Bluffs Farbes was. arrested under the: Councll Bluffs indictment at the ringside after he had been soundly lloked in a prize fight with Abe Attell. He had previously been arrested under the Omaha Indictment, but had been released on bail. Inspector Swenson returned Friday without Forbes and it s understood that Forbes again succeeded In securing his liberty on bonds. Harry Forbes is sald to be a brother of Clarence Forbes, likewise a prize fighter, who was Included in the Council Bluffs and Omaba indlotments and was arrested several months ago in Chicago, where he furnished bonds for his apeparance In court here. Inspector Swenson shortly after returning from the-east started for Colorado for the purpose, it was stated, of hunting up witnesses for the trial here this week. The capacity of the north court room in the county court house in which the trial of Mabray and his alleged assoclates will be held this week will be, it Is expected, taxed to the limit. The trial is expected to attract a large number of spectators, not to mention the court officlals, attaches, at- torneys for the accused and the small army of witnesses. The government has ar- ranged for the use of rooms on the third floor of the court house as offices for the United States attorneys. Many of the wit- nesses have never been interviewed by the attorneys for the governmcnt and these rooms will be used for that purpose. Trial Set for Thursday. Judge Smith McPherson will convene the term of court Tuesday and the trial of Mabray and other alleged members of the gang Is set for Thursday. The term of federal court at Creston is scheduled to open on Tuesday, March 2, so that the term here will necessarily be a short one and it is likely that Judge McPherson will reconvene it later in order to dispose of the business that will have to be side- tracked on account of the Mabray trall, which is expected to occupy the greater part of the two weeks. Twelve of the clvil sults brought by Mabray “Mikes” to recover the amounts out of which they claim to have been buncoed by the gang have been filed for trial at this term of United States court, but it is extremely doubtful, if they will be reached. N. A. Crawford, attorney for the piaintitfs in these clvil suits, stated yesterday that he was ready and desirous to have these cases tried at this term. The amounts which the twelve “Mikes" seek to recover in the civil actions in the United BStates court here aggregate $70,200. The plaintiffs and the amounts which they sue for are as follows: Z. Plerpont, Marysville, Mo., $2,100. Thomas K. George, San Antonlo, "fi’.‘:ry Stogadill, Cabool, Mo., $3,000. George L. Brown, Norion, Kan., $3,200 W. H. Bedford, Bolckow, Mo., 35,000, George B.

Weaver of Colfax, Ia., yesterday afternoon in an earnest “heart-to-heart’ talk to men enerally at the Young Men's Christian as- soclation meeting in Councll Blufts, “The Rich Young Ruler” was the title of General Weaver's address, and throughout it was an earnest exhortation to the young man to lead the life of a Christian. The young man of the present day, while ap- parently leading a good and upright lite, lacked the chief essentlal of the real Chrls- tlan, and that was the glving of all to Christ. “Throw down your gun and sur- render yourself to God,” was the striking way In which the gray-haired veteran of the civil war urged the young men la the audience to forsake the things that are worldly and enlist in the army of the Lord, “Be honest, be truthful, pray to God and love your nelghbor,” were the closing ad- monitions of the speaker. The meeting was largely attended, many representative business and professional men belng present. General Weaver was introduced by his old corps commander, General Grenvifle M. Dodge. J. G, Wade- worth, the newly elected president of the assoclation, presided, and Rev. James M. Willlams, pastor of Broadway Methodist church, offered the opening and closing prayers. The meeting this morning of the Minis. terlal assoclation, at which General Weaver will dellver his lecture on “Faith Healing, will be held in the auditorium of the public library and not in the Young Men's Chris- tian assoclation bullding, as originally an- nounced. Yesterday morning General Weaver spoke at the Broadway Methodist ohurch on “Faith Healing from a Christian Stand- point,” and In the evening at the same church he spoke especlally for the benefit of the veterans of the civil war, who at- tended n'a body., % * | ’ MOTHER IN COURT PUSHE! SON INTO PENITENTIARY Jury Convicts Young Man at Bedford Largely on Testimony She Gives. CRESTON, Ia., March 7.—(Speclal,)—D. §. Saunders was convicted in the Thayer county dlstrict court at Bedford last week of the crime of forgery, and his mother was the principal witness against him and seemingly did everything In her power to secure a penitentiary vendiot for her soi. The unusual sight of a mother working, so hard to send her son to prison reacte(. on the audlences that gathered every day to hear the trial to such an extent that a strong sympathy for the young man s)rang up. Sentence has not yet been passed upon the young man. His crime, briefly out- lined by the evidence mvr~Zuced, is that the defendant Is thc youngest son of Mrs. Saunders, @ widow, living near Corning, She formerly ilved on & large farm near Lenox and when her husband died a few years ago she was made administratrix of the estate. There are seven children, the s0n who has been on trial being the young- est. He desired her to loan him money to stock @ farm which he wished to buy and she refused, pleading it would be unfair to the other children for her to do so. Later the son attended a sale and bought a bill of stock, giving his note and signing his mother's name to the note for security. Later the note was sold to J. R. Cooper at Conway and when he presented the note to Mrs. Saunders for payment she denied giv- Ing permission to use her name and brought the charge of forgery against him, In the meantime the son had moved to Cambridge, Ta. At the trial other notes and checks were Introduced by the state which it was clalmed he had forged, and these entered largely into the jury's con- clustons. Former Man Killed. CRESTON, Ia., March 7. — (Special)— Word has been received here by relatives that J.

The following speech was delivered at the recent organization of the Walter 1. Smith ulub at Councll Bluffs, by General G. M Dodge Mr. President of the Waiter I and fellow citizens: Smith elub, this is the tirst time in my lite that 1 have appeared before an assemblage llke this to make a political speech, but it is a great pleasure to be present here with you to ald in organizipg this club and paying our tribute to Walter 1. Smith, our dlstin- guished citizen and mote distinguished rep- resentative of our state in congress. Any person seeking the office of congres: man from lowa has before him & task and & problem. He will find this position hard to fill, for Iowa In the congress of the United States occuples a position held by no other state, as a leader in legislation and in the counsels of our nation. It took this stand in the civil war when our repre- sentatives and senators cama immediately to the front as leaders in the house and senate and not only there, but in the fleld, in the civil war, through the action of our | Governor Kirkwood in the policy he pur- sued of leaving to each military organiza | tion in the field from Iowa to fill all the vacancies that occurred in battle or by dis- ease, by promotion of the members of thelr orgunization in the field. For this act, no one can estimate the value and ald it was to our commanders, Generals Grant and Bherman; and other officers often spoke to me in praise of the action of our state. Many states sometimes filled such vacancies by sending to the front citizens that had seen no service, ignoring the brave men who had shown their fitness In battle, thus creating great dissatisfaction in the regiments. Towa In congress from the beginning un- til the present time has held such promi- nent position In the house and senate that it has of necesslty .taken an active part in all leglslation; has been consulted in all questions of party policy and to a great extent in Iater years has been the active leader of such” legisiation. The leaders from our state have also been always con- sulted Dby the president, republican and democrat. They have had the confidence of both sides of each house, and to hold such a position 8o many years has required men of great ability, of excellent judgment and of national standing. Perhaps no person has had a better opportunity to judge of this man than 1 have, for it has been my duty in connection with the great develop- ment of our country to have been continu- ously before congress to obtain the neces- sary laws to carry forward these great works, and In all this time all I had to do was to go before our delegation and pre- sent our plans and when they met their ap- proval they went forward and obtained the legislation. If they did not approve, we never antagonized them; we dropped the mutter. The delegation has worked all theso years almost continuously as a unit, not only In legislation, but in all party (matters, and it wi this harmony that brought them to such high position in the nation. Walter 1. Smith has been one of these factors; his standing In the house and in all the administrations could not be better; he 1s looked upon as one of the ablest and most safe men In congress, and during his time he has saved millions to the nation, Inaugurated and passed bills that have been national in their character and of great benefit, He has advocated all the great party's measures inaugurated by President Roosevelt and now being car- ried out by President Taft. A leading, eastern, journal in.speaking of him as speaker of the house for the next congress says: ‘17" “Mr. Smith is one.of the readlest de- baters in the house; & flend, for facts and res and has 4 't 6 'ds sharp as a whip-lash; despite his'tremendous force of character his good nature is one of the predominating features of. his make-up.’ It 18 beyond me how lowa today ocan 0 back on this record and have divisions | on questions that so' far as ‘1 can see B @'e all in favor of, and my hope Is that we will line up in the coming conflict as one man in behalf of the principles | advocated by Roosevelt and being a0 loy- ally carried out by Taft. When you con- sider that this country is 3,000 miles long, | east and west, and nearly as many miles | north and south, with two great seas| washing Its borders; with almost every state having different local Interests, you must see how impossible it s for govern- | inent to meet the wishes of all. We must | 80 forward as we have been doing In the past, adapting ourselves as nearly as pos- sible to the great principles of the party and always Iining up In 80lid front against the common enemy. There never has been in the presidential chair so strong an ad- vocate of the party as President Roose- velt and who made greater efforts to hold his party together and have its sup- port. He had no use for a republican who was not willing to lay down his in- dividual views on party measures and vote with his party. He sald he often had to change his views on many measures that the party did not agree to and he felt it he could do this the republicans who had no such responsibilities as he had could afford to do as much. He always sald that a president to be successful must have his party behind him, He believed the only way the party could be successful in carrying out its measures was to line up in all party battles and meet the common enemy with a solld | front under the command of its general; that to get out as & guerilla on some per- sonal reasons one only injured his party and helped the enemy; that a party must be organized and led as an army. Tt was & well-known fact that he had no confi- denoe in a republican who proposed -to fight outside of the party line after the party, through its proper mources hed adopted Its party measures and when Presi- dent Roosevelt returns to this country, you will find him lining up with Presi. dent Taft, carrying to a successful end, the party 'principles he Is now advocating and “urglng congress to enact into lawa We must stand for these principles and stand by our president and congress if Ive want to continue the republican party in power and maintain our future develop- ment and prosperity. There has been a wave of criticlsm over this country against President Taft and his administraticn that it is hard to ac- count for. It is certainly unreasonable and uncalled for and has been worked u through underhanded means and selfls interests, but President Taft has shown himself able to meet it; he ls carrying out the principles adopted by the party In its conventlons and in congress. No misrepre- sentation or abuse has changed him and he is on the road to success and as the years go by, he will prove, as President Roosevelt predicted, one of our ablest and most progressive Dresidents our eountry has ever elected. This club should get behind him and go forward to battle for Walter I. Smith and the loyal support Walter I.

It Is estimated that in Berlin alone 120,000 persons took part In what was called |a “demonstration stroll” in various parts of the eity. The chief of police at Berlin fearing danger from the assembly of so many thousands In the popular park of Treptow, the place chosen by the socialists, forbade a demonstration of any kind there. But the socialist newspaper, Vorwaerts, announced that the manifestation would be held In spite of the order of prohibition. This caused the collection of a powerful force of police and gendarmes in Treptow park, which left the remainder of the eity virtu- ally unguarded. The soclalist leaders this morning, ob- serving that their plan had been frustrated, quickly and quietly passed the word to their followers to proceed to the other end of the city. These Instructions were obeyed by 30,000 manifestants, who succeeded In accomplishing the “stroll” almost undls- turbed, while the others who had remained around Treptow park came into severe col- lision with the gendarmes and police, with serfous consequences, The police, however, in the majority of the cases, acted with the utmost modera- tion, obeying the orders to avold as far as possible using thelr arms which were ls- sued by Chlef Von Jagow, who recently had been much criticised for his severity. It was the provisional gendarme, who, on this occasion, eams into the most seri- ous confllet with the crowds. Until & late hour tonight all the streets leading to the palace, the imperial chancel- lor’s residence and the Prussian parliament were guarded by cordons of armed police, but no demonstrators appeared. Reports from the provinces show, In most cases, the demonstrations by many thousands passed off peacetully. NIGHT LETTER SERVICE WILL BEGIN TODAY Western Union and Postal Companies Wil Put System Into Effect at Once. NEW YORK, March 7. — Announcement was made tonight that the Postal Tele- graph-Cable company, beginning today will render a night letter service of fifty words between all offices on its own telegraph lines and lines of its direct con- nectlons In the United Btates at the regular day rate for ten words. This is the same rate as recently was adopted by the We ern Unlon Telegraph company for similar service going Into effect tomorrow also, but Charles H. Adams, second vice presi- dent of the postals asserts that this is to be understood not as evidence of a com munity of Interest, but of keen competl tion. In the case of the Western Unlon Tele graph company the service will be an In- novation as it will be in effect in connec- tion with the Bell telephone lines, and patrons of these lines may have their ac- counts carried from month to month, Mes- sages will be received up till midnight by telephone, code words not being permitted. Under the new system, o fifty-word mes- sage will be carried at night for the price of a ten-word day message, and for every additional ten words one-fifth of the original charge is added. These messages will be delivered at destination by mes- senger or by mall, as designated, COL.DER WEATHER COMING Weather Man Says it Will Be Wide- =pre Covering Central Valleys Today.

The dance began at 10:60 o'clock last night and was halted at o'clock this afternoon. The six couples remaining on the floor ag the close will divide a purse of $14.

Good Silence Maintained as to Strike Con- ditions in Baltimore, with No Change Noted. BALTIMORE, Md., March 7.—Sphinx-like silence is still maintained In accordance with & three-cornered agreement, by all concerned touching the progress of the board of mediation composed of Chairman Knapp of the Interstate Commerce com- mission and Commissioner Nelll in their ef- forts to adjust the differences between the Baltimore and Ohio rallroad and its con- ductors and trainmen relative to Wwages and service oonditions. There was today what ls sald to be & moat unusual event, a Sunday conference In connection with the case. It was between Commissioner Nelll and representatives of the employes and lasted about four hours. Chairman Knapp was prevented from coming to Baltimore by other business. Conferences will be re- sumed early tomorrow morning. Owing to the pressure of other business it is said that Chairman Knapp will leave the nego- tiations entirely in the hands of Mr. Nelll for the next day or two. While nothing specific is obtainable as to the progress of the work of the board of mediation, it may be said that the pros- pect of a peageful settiement satisfactory to both sides is at least as bright as It was yesterday or has yet been. \ Texas Democrat tor Culberson 8.
