It will not do Mr. Bryan any good to IHlalm to be the heir to the Roosevelt ides. No one has ever succeeded breaking Mr. Roosevelt's will. Mr. Taft is a good example of the nine American workingman.

In all there are seventeen cases «m the calendar, the most important of whkL un those against Mrs. Christine Clark for the murder of her divorced husband, and T. B. Mitchell, the horse thief. Mrs. Clark will leave no stone unturned to escape conviction, and the case will likely take up several days. It is not known just what action Mitchell will take.

Dallas -This city began to take on the aspects of frontier customs today when Doc Phillips, a Chicago crook, and Frank Lewis of Florence, Neb., were escorted to the state line and giv en warning to keep off South Dakota •oil. They had previously been fined $•"() each for pocket picking and were at the head of a growing crowd of tin horn gamblers and thugs, who had been gathering here since the rush lteiiaii, with the evident intention ot running the town wide open.

It was then discovered that the ministers had presented the wrong petition, and while they hurried out to secure the proper paper, the council took the opportunity to grant the licenses. The advent of the new sa loons means twenty-four saloons for the city, which the ministers claim is contrary to the state law in a town of this size. The action may reach the courts.
