It was a sensational occurrence today when Walter Wellman's daily letter qaoted with implied approval a business ' man who said: "I'll tell you what I think as a busi ness man. That is that we shall never have peace and stability in this country till we get Roosevelt out of the Whits House and Bryan out of politics." me expression, so used, is jumped on as indicative or me raise position as sumed by Taft as one sincerely devoted . to the Booseveit policies, ana as an evi dence of an understanding by the reac tionary Interests that Taft will be good to them, although in the western states Taft campaigns on the theory that he , will be a good Roosevelt man. The allegations of a secret deal whereby Robinson, the president's rel ative; Nelson Cromwell, the Standard Oil attorney; Morgan, head or the steel trust, and Charles P. Taft, the presi dent's brother, profited $28,000,000 in the Panama canal purchase from the . French company, are unanswered as yet, ' and this, coupled with the positive as sertion by Frenchmen of prominence, 1 has hurt Taft exceedingly. It Is not claimed that surh a deal has been proved so ttvit fair minded men must ' accept it aa true. But It is claimed that more proof has been offered than was adduced when Hearst, Roosevelt und aft declared Haskell was convicted on videnee which Monnett. the chief wlt- ness, pronounced only hearsay. Democratic leaders expect delhy in 'Answering the canal charges' until It Is too lato for a full investigation. Manv rewspapers are insistently demanding the giving up of records at once, that the facts may he mads known to the public. I learnnd today that some d tectlve work lias been done that In part substantiates the allpgutin that t2K, 000,000 was the profit to the Morpsn-Taft-Robinson and Cromwoll syndicate, taken with the full knowledge, of tne government that It wax taken. they all ran to the scene m'here they saw M liner and others gathered around Sheriff Brown's prostrate form. Accord ing to Burroughs, the sheriff died in about 20 minutes after the explosion. Burroughs told a newspaper reporter that Mfsnor was an official of the Amer ican, Federation of Labor, while to oth ers he Insisted that Mlsner was promi nently Identified with tho Western Fed eration of Miners. When this discrifi- ancy was called to his attention, Bur roughs simply smiled and declared that the two organisations were the same; while, as a matter of fact, well known to any one familiar with the labor move ment, the American Federation of La bor and the Western Foderatlon of Mi ners are not affiliated. There were other discrepancies In Bur roughs' statements. At first he said that Sherlft Brown was killed Novem ber 28, 1905, but later could not recall the exaot date, and said he thought It wag about two years ago. Burroughs is a painter, having worked at ths trade for a number of years in and about Baker City. He came to sheiidan last March, since which time j is has been working off and on at the ! minting Dusiness ana at other odd jotis. ncludlng sheepherding. Burroughs is believed to be mentally unbalanced. He haa been in trouble here considerably of late, nut ror some reason those who might be expected to bring complaint against him have not done so. About six weeks ago he became In volved in a shooting affair at Arvada. a ismall place south of Sheridan. He was arrested for the offense, but the complaining witness finally refused to prosecute, on the ground that. In his opinion. Burroughs was insane. A cou ple of weeks later he was arrested on the charge of stealing a revolver, but nthing came of this prosecution either, the complainant railing to appear gainst nim.

BEING REAL WCf FOR WHILE PASTOR IS AWAY HIS FL6CK IISCJJJSASES PAY (Special DUpatcb to The Journal.) North Yakima, Wash., Oct. 21. When Rev. M. I Rose, pastor of the North Yakima Christian church, ' returns from Eugene. Or., where he is assisting at the 4 dedication of the Christian Di- 4 vlnlty school building, adjacent to the University of Oregon, he 4 will find that his salary hns 4 been Increased $50 a montti. This action, which was planned as a surprise, was taken by a full meeting of the congregation and was unanimous. Ths congrega- tion has increased so rapidly, consequently increasing the duties of the pastor, that the members of the church believed the minister entitled to more re- numeration. They accordingly voted to raise the salary from. 4 $1,200 to $1,800 a year. Governor of Kanagawa Is sues Kules for Observ ance by Japs. d'ulted Presi Leased Wire.) Yokohama, Oct. 21.

"It shall he understood that when jureigner mints ai ills watch h anir. gents that he has some urgent ens-aare- ment."
