INDIANA TOWN WOULD PROHIBIT ALL FLIRTING (Special to The Evening Times.) South Bend., Ind., Sept, 20. Be cause the city fathers of the town of Silver Lake In Kosciuako county have tabooed flirting iu an unusually drastic ordinance, the young people Tillman Again in the Arena. (Continued from First Page.) self-government we shall lose the substance of liberty ana nothing but the shadow will be left. When Btates are hampered by federal in terference, when the people are harassed and plundered by corpora tions, we must look ahead and steer away from disaster. Xo Vir With Japan. I do not think there is any likeli- nwvjv, ui ti i nun inuaa uci auaii n in California and on the Pacific coast. Japan is too busy heading off bankruptcy to think about fighting us. It might be different if we were persecuting Japan like Russia did, when Japanese national pride would impel them to fight' if .they were on thelr'knees when the scrap began. Occurrences in British Columbia and the Dominion of Canada demand for exclusion will help out in settling the vexed question. Japan is not going to rear up and tear around with her ally, England, and when she gi..;. through pleading with Eng land they won't try to bluff old Uncle- Sam. The Japanese diplo mats -are acute and alive men and of course they are not going to be disadvantaged by us if they can help it. .,' The ond significant transaction or fact that has come to the front since the adjournment of congress last March is the apparent clash, or threatened dash between state and national authority in the effort to control corporations and railroads. Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, Nebraska, New York, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Alabama have passed tow cent fare bills and taken other prompt action in the direction of regulating charges for freight and passenger transportation. Governor Hughes vetoed the New York bill. The Pennsylvania railroad which owns the state, set about annulling the two cent fare bill. People of other states felt grateful except In North Carolina and Alabama, Cnl td States Circuit Judge Pritchar.1 and District Judge Jones Issued Bweeping Injunctions restraining the state officials from enforcing the laws. The constitutionality of the law was not attacked. It could not be attacked except upon the plea of confiscation. Plutocratic Press Misleading. While the matter was in the public mind the plutocratic press teemed with editorials and cartoons, all In tended to direct the attention of the people to the ghost of state rights, which we were told, were Bhot to death in '61 and '65. The country was led to suppose that North Caro lina and Governor Glenn were at tempting a revival of the old ante bellum doctrine. In truth these or gans of Morgan, Harrlman, Rocke feller, et al., have attempted to mis lead the people and bolster up the Root Idea of national authority upon absolutely false grounds. , When Judges Prltcbard and Jones stand up and proclaim In thundering tones "We are the nation; we have the power and authority to protect Tested Interests and the state shall not destroy the property of the rail roads" they wave their arms franti cally and the ghost of Calhoun is conjured from under the bed. They )td lt.be gone. People who have ye and who examined this affair iclosely, saw,. ., looking7 over these fudges' shoulders, the grinning faces the railroad magnates and the PERIODS OF PAIN While no woman it entirely free from periodic suffering, it does not seem to be the plan of nature that women should suffer so severely. Ir regularities and pain are positive evidence that something is wrong which should be set right or it will lead to serious derangement of the feminine organism. Thousands of women, hare found relief from all periodio suf fering by taking Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound, which is made from native roots and herbs, as it is the most thorough female regulator known to medical science. It cnres the condition which causes so muoh discomfort and robs threaten to des.ut the town in a body'.- The Village council' is being petitioned to rescind its action. "The ordinance, besides prohibiting flirt ing generally, specifies that candy or peanut Vutlug in groups of two or more is flirting. judges are mere niannlkins obeying the orders of their former employ ers. The American people will never be bamboozled and deceived by fake ap peals to the national spirit, invoked to protect the Harrinian, Morgan, Rockefeller gang in their efforts to compel producers of the country to pay tribute to them and dividends on watered stock. MOB FROMMOUNTAINS FLOCK INTO THE TOWN (By Leased Wire to The Times.) Culpepper, Va., Sept. 20. Moun taineers from the fastness of Culpep per and Rappanhnnnock counties, some friends, some enemies and all neighbors of William Seal and his son-in-law, Byrd Jenkins, both in jail here for the murder of William Smith, respectively son-in-law and brother-in-law to Seal and Jenkins, overwhelm this town today, 'i'hey differ much in their opinions as to the guilt or innocence of the pris oners. A one-gallus denizen of the mountains said In a group of twenty or more of his companions: "I am here In tell von TOmtiion they had ought to swing.'l and the sentiment inet with applause. All reported that feeling was bitter against Sealand Jenkins, some of them saying that it would not be surprising if a mob came from their neighborhood to take them out of jail and hang them. The sheriff says he is prepared to light. EVERY JAPANESE IS A FIRST CLASS SOLDIER (By Leased Wire. to The Times.) Seattle. Wash., Sept. 20. K. H. Fow ler, of the JsipancKe-Korean exclusion league, declares that the people of the United States have no idea yet of the Japanese-Korean situation. He says: "The Japanese here are almost without exception trained soldiers, able bodied men, and they can be brought together as a unit. This was done in Vancouver at the time of the riot, when at the call of the bugle every able bodied Japanese in the town was called together In perfect jnlli tury order. The quickly assembled army seftt a scout out to ascertain the state of affairs and found it not so serious as was feared, and as they had been called together by the assembly call, they were given the call to dis miss and they all retreated in perfect order. . ' "Every Japanese in the country is kept track of he must make regular reports to his consul, so that the em peror can know at once evactly where every one of his subjects Is in caw he Is wanted for military duty. So perfect Is this organization that with in a few days time Japan could mob ilize on the Pacific coast an army of 100,000 trained and armed soldiers. This army could capture every gun and every arsenal on the Pacific coast within twenty-four hours." " " ' " . Lost and Found. Lost, between :30 p. m yesterday ana noon today, a bilious attack, with nausea and sick headache. This loin was occasioned by findings at all druggists a box of Dr. King's New Life Pills, the guaranteed cure for biliousness, malaria and jaundice. SSo. CITY ATTORNEY SNOW ON THE AUDITORIUM Editor Raleigh Evening Times: Will you kindly gant me the space necessary for a few statements con cerning the Auditorium Bond Elec tion? This matter was taken up by the Board of Aldermen which went out of office in May last and after a full consideration of the question, with due regard for the best interests of thd city of Raleigh, the Board unani mously decided to have a bill intro duced in the Legislature authorizing the issuing of Bonds of the City in an amount not to exceed $100,000, for the purpose of securing an Audi torium and improving the present City Hall Building, provided the voters approved same at an election Held for such purpose. The Board decided to put the mat ter to the people in the form of two alternative propositions, viz: either to improve, repair and remodel the present City Hall Building, move the market to another plac., provide better and decent accommodation, for the Mayor and other city offi cers, and remove the guard house, froni underneath the ground to a suitable place on t'.ie first floor of the new building, and to construct with in said building an auditorium: or, to purchase a site elsewhere in the city and ' evict thereon an Audito rium and Municipal Building, and leave the old city building and mar ket as they now are. The bill wna introduced in and passed by the Leg islature, and Is now a law; the new Board of Aldermen, in thd exercise of the power conferred by the law decided to submit to the people tu first of the two propositions, as it deemed it the better, and did not deem it wise for the city to put a large sum of money into a proposi tion which could yield but little, if any, returns, and at. the same time, leave the present unsightly, unsuit able and inadequate "aMrket House" standing upon the principal street of the city leading to the State Capi tol Building, and within three blocks thereof. Consequently, the people are called upon to express their ap proval or disapproval of that propo sition at the election to be held on September 2Gth. By a wise provis ion of the ordinance calling the elec tion all matters pertaining to : the selection of a site for the proposed new market, the passing upon "bids, awarding contracts for the work and other matters connected therewith Kellogg Lays Clever Plan for Standard Oil (Continued from First Page.) by Attorney General of Ohio, and the heads of the legal forces of other states. In which actions against the Standard have been brought. Tilford on the Staud. Treasurer Tilford produced state ments showing that the dividends of the standard Oil Company of New Jersey In 1899. Q. Was the dividend $14,304,188.50 or $32,008,541 in 1899? A. It was $13,304,188.30. Q. Is It not a fact that the divi dends of some of the sub-companies were paid to Individuals and not to the New Jersey company during that year, and that the difference In the figures is explained In that way? A. I think that It is right. It was reported that the accountants examining the records of the famous liquidating trustees committee of six have learned that between 1882 and 18S9 the profits of the combine weie between $800,000,000 and $900,000,000. As the figures will not be complete be fore next week no attempt will be made to examine the officers In regard to them. Treasurer Tilford said that up to this time 972.492 shares of the total 97-,riOO has been exchanged for certifi cates In "sub" companies. The other eight shares should still be In the possession of the New Jer sey company, the witness believed. doing back to the Manhattan Oil Company, Anthony N. Brady and E. C. Benedict's venture. Attorney Kellogg sought to learn how their producing wells and tank cars had been dis posed of. Q. Who would know? A. I cannot say. O. Can you find out? A. I don't think so. The same series of answers were given to questions as to whether the Manhattan Oil Company sold Its tank cars to the Union Pipe Line Company. The witnesses expressed the same lack of knowledge of the connection of the Solar Refining Company, one of the sub-companies, as with the Manhattan Oil Company. Treasurer Tilford said that the list stock held by John D. Rockefeller, William Rockefeller, John D. Arch bold, Stephen Harkness, Henry H. Rogers and Henry M. Flagler during and since the liquidation produclngs was being prepared and would be fur nished to Attorney Kellogg. Attorney Kellogg produced a list of the stockholders of the parent com pany as verified on August 11 last. It was a bulky document containing perhaps 1,000 sheets of paper. Some Interesting Facts. Handing it to the witness he began to question him In regard to holdings of several Standard Oil officers. It was brought out that John D. Archbold holds 6,000 shares, John F. Archbold, his son, 100. The widow of j are left to a committee composed of five members of the Board of Alder men, Ave prominent citizens of Ral eigh, and the Mayor, City Treasurer and City Attorney. Now, what are the arguments 'ad vanced against the proposition: First. That a suitable Auditorium cannot be erected a t the proposed site. In reply to this it is only necessary to say that tha architects of the city have stated that an auditorium with seating capacity of from 2,000 to 3,000, according to the length de sired, can be erected, and by widen ing the character of the paving ma terial on side streets the noise will be practically eliminated. So much for this point of ..opposition. It is well to consider also the fact that the present seating capacity of the largest hall in the city (Academy of Music) Is about SSj, and to reflect also upon the question "Would it not be well to improve conditions this much and relieve the present situation until a larger auditorium can be secured in the future, when needed, either by public contribu tion, private donation or otherwise? What convention is the city apt to have in the near future which would overtax a capacity of 3,000 people? Does any other city in the state pos sess an auditorium which will seat more than 2,200 persons? Hadn't we better do the best we can now and then a little more later on? , Secondv That the Board lias not decided where the 'market, is to be located, or,-if they luiv, they won't tell. Of .course'- they haven't decided; they ...have expressly left that to the committee heretofore mentioned; it would be strange if the Board had selected a site and limited the ques tion before the people to one place when there might be other better and more suitable places; and, again. j if they had adopted that course, I would not some over-zealous "pub 1 lic-protector" have raised the cry ! "gra ." "axe to grind," "something in it for somebody"? It may not be amiss to state just here that no mem ber of the Board, and no member of the city government has any inler est, direct, or indirect, in any proba ble site for a market, or cares one iota where it is placed, except that every person in the community prob ably desires it to be so located as to be convenient and accessible, and for the greatest good of the greatest J. A. Bostlck, one of the liquidating trustees, holds 6,048 shares, while other members of the Bostwlck family are credited' with smaller numbers. Henry M, ..Flagler 'was shown to own 30,500 shares and Mrs. Lillian A. Flagler, 1,000. ': Oliver Payne Is cred ited with 40,000 sares and the estate of Daniel O'Day with 2,650 shares. Charles Pratt, father of C. M. Pratt, secretary of the parent .company of the combine, is perhaps the largest stockholder outside of Rockefeller. The father is credited with 52,852 shares, while the son holds 500 shares. William Rockefeller, 'brother of "John I).." is owner of 11,700 shares of the stock. John D. Rockefeller owns 247.692 shares, having parted with almost 9,000 shares since the reorganization In 1S99. His son, John D., Jr., is not very well fixed, having but 120 shares of the 1.00ft per cent stock. Henry H. Rogers, Who s said to have retired Will find no necessity of worrying about funds, as hk 16,020 shares. The estate of W. O. Wordeii owns 585 certificates. JEALOI SV RESULTED IX SHOOTING FROM AMIU'SH. Special to The Evening Times.) VVInston-Salem, N. C, Sept. 20. , Further particulars have been learn ed of the shooting of John Fulp. n 1 young white man, near Walnut Cove, early Sunday morning. It seems that Fulp and Joe Wall were rivals for the , affections of Miss Emma Youruj, of the same community. Wall hnd suc ceeded in winning the affections of I the young lady. Saturday night Joe 'and Will Wall, Grady Pulllam and John, Pleas Lesley and the Misses J'oung attended a social gathering about a mile distant from the home f the parties. On the return about midnight, when the party was about half way home, they were rocked by "lie one hid In the brushes on the side of the road. Several shots were also fired. The young ladles were carried home and the young men came back on their way home and when at the same point they were fired upon again by a party In tho ambush. The firing was return d with the result that the party In the ambush, who proved to be John Fulp, was . dangerously wounded, 4 bulelt having penetrated his left lung. Dfed in New Hampshire. The funeral of Ather Albert, the six-months-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Levlngston, takes place this afternoon at four o'clock from the residence, 217 .South West street. The interment Is at Oakwood ceme tery. The little one died on the 18th, at Berlin, New Hampshire, where his mother was on a visit with the child to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Dogmon. The remains arrived here this morn ing and wore taken in charge by Un dertaker Strickland, number. Third. That the Mayor hasn't published the ' names of the alder manic committee. And what of it if he hasn't? It is to be presumed that the Mayor of the city of Raleigh, In whose hon esty and integrity, a large majority (certainly), if not all, of his constit uents have Implicit faith and confi dence will name the proper men. But "what possible difference can it make, what possible effect upon the Auditorium proposition can it have? It is respectfully suggested that, such an argument is childish, and is made withont consideration and is with out foundation in reason. In other words, it Is absurd. Fourth. That, even if the above grounds of opposition are not sound, then (and as a last shot in the dark) the three city officials on the com mittee owuld blindly obey the com mands of the Aldermnnic commit tee. : :-' ,. aPrdon the suggestion, if you please, that this last proposition is, well it is preposterously foolish, and the only Imaginary theory upa;i which its advancement can be ac counted for is that the mind from which it emanated is just about such a mind as would in such a situation be actuated by the grossly improper motives, as are attributed to. the three city officials concerned. But the mere statement of the argument, carries its own answer. Doubtless no intelligent voter would givJ it, a second thought. . hi conclusion let me say that the Chamber of Commerce lias approved the Auditorium Bond Proposition, and the people are beginning to look at It fairly and squarely. Tlioy are beginning to see that if this plan is rejected, the other plan, viz: to buy a site and erect an Auditorium 'and -Municipal'. BuildLig thereon, and leave the present Market Ho.:,'1 Building as it now is, would most i certainly be rejected, and the result would be that in these respects the city would get no relief for two years. Finally, I desire to say that if the proposition "be defeated no inemb.-r of the city government will suffer any '.'distress other, than that which will be felt by the' public, generally, viz: that the city should have neg lected to take this forward step at this ipiportant period of Its history.
