The Independence day fete and Anti-Kl&n Forces Shoot It Out--One Dead, One Wounded. Warton, III.--The war In WtfflkniMon county flared up Into new flames late Friday night Klan and antl-klan forces are arrayed against each other lb Herrln and threaten to shoot It out One man was killed, another is d Ing, and three have been kldnapedL Five companies of state troops are on duty In Herrln to prevent more bloodshed. It Is the same old trouble which has been the beginning of many battles. Bootlegging is the cause or is being made the excuse for the raids and counter raids and pitched battles. On the one side is the klan and its "dry" raiders, headed by S. Gleiai Young. On the other is the sheriff of Williamson county and his deputies. Bach faction claims to have the law on Its side. The sheriff says he will clean up the bootleggers If the klan will support hlm. The klan claims the county authorities are lax and that the klan's vigilance committee must enforce the law. It was the activity of the klan raiders which caused the French government to file protest with the officials in Washington, asserting that the rights of French citizens In Williamson county were being violated. The real cause of and the circumstances surrounding the night's bat* tie are somewhat in doubt These facts are known: Constable Caesar Cagle, leader In the klan and a dry raider, was shot and killed. Deputy John Layman was seriously wounded. Three of Herrin's police force-- Chief John Ford, Assistant Chief Grain and Patrolman Frank Stephens --hive been spirited away. Klan leaders asserted they were kidnaped. The sheriff's forces say they were arrested and taken away for "safekeeping."

Culberson of the Illinois National Guard, who was sent to Herrln to prevent a threatened outbreak. With them was Deputy Sheriff John Layman. Suddenly, the sheriff reported, three Herrln policemen broke into the room and opened fire. Laymen fell and the policemen rushed out. Cagle, the sheriff reported, was shot later in the street near the Jefferson hoteL The klansmen assert that the trouble began with'the killing of Constable Cagle. They allege that Cagle was attacked and shot dead by a mob headed by Deputy Sheriff John Layman and that, following that attack, the mob went to the Rome club; that the Herrln police received a riot call there, and that the shooting of Lay* man followed in that place. Herrin, 111. -- "Bloody Williamson" county Is undfer military rule. The One Hundred and Thirty-second Infantry has been ordered to proceed. to the scene at once from Chicago. The proclamation for military rule was Issued by Adjt. Gen. Carlos Black. He says It Is the only solution for this stormy county's predicament. Maj. Gen. Milton J. Foreman of Chicago is in full command of all troops In Williamson county. General Black makes this distinction between the military rule that has been declared and martial law: Under martial law the military Is In supreme authority, under military rule the military is technically subordinate to the chief law enforcement officer of the county, which in this case Is Coroner W. T. McCown. The situation here is bad, General Black said, and it is not getting any better. The atmosphere of peace and quiet that characterized Herrln, Marlon, Johnston City, West Frankfort and other nearby towns Is superficial. Underneath are forces that would throw the county into bloodshed. They are held In restraint only by the presence of the troopg, and when these leave they will break out again. General Black issued the proclamation after all-day conference with leading citizens and those in temporary tnanteau containing $350,000, but, ow --» tog to Imprisonment for bankruptcy. Is also will mark the opening of Law iihable to secure possession.

Would Protect Indiana Washington. -- Commissioner Buries of the Indian bureau on Friday after- £3» 2 Refuses to DigxnUi Oenby at Request of Senate, .r Washington.--President Coolidge on Monday night flatly refused to dismiss Secretary of the Navy Denby at the, behest of the senate. By a vote of 47 to 34, the senate late in the afternoon declared it the sense. that body that the President imme-j iiately should call for the resignation yf Mr. Denby because of the leases of navy oil reserves that the navy secretary and Albert B. Fall, the secretary Df the interior, had made to E. L. Dofieny and Harry F. Sinclair. A few hours later President Coolidge issued a formal statement announcing: that he would ignore the senate res* tutlon, which he pronounced an invasion of executive functions. President Coolidge issued the following .statement denying that the se£; ate has the right to force the resignation of an executive officer: "No official resqghition can be given to the passage of the senate resolution relative to their opinion concerning members of the cabinet or other officers under executive control. "As soon as special counsel can advise me as to the legality of these leases and assemble for me the pertinent facts in the various transactions, I shall take such action as seems essential for the full protection of the public Interests. I shall not hesitate to call for the resignation of any official whose conduct In this matter in any way warrants such action upon my part. "The dismissal of an officer at the government, such as is involved in this case, other than by Impeachment, is exclusively an executive function. I regard this as a vital principle.of our government. "In discussing this principle, Mr. Madison has well said: 'It is lulu down, in most of the constitutions or bills of rights In the republics of America'; It is to be found -in the political writings of the celebrated civilians, and it is everywherej4 held as essential to the preservation of liberty that the three great departments of government be kept separate and distinct. "President Cleveland likewise stated the correct principle in discussing requests and demands made by the senate upon him and upon different departments of the government, in which he said: " 'They assume the right of the senate to sit in judgment upon the exercise of my exclusive- discretion and executive function, for which J am solely responsible to the people from whom I have so lately received the sacred trust of office. " 'My- oath to support and defend the Constitution, my duty to the people who have chosen me to execute the powers of their great office, and not to relinquish them, and my doty to the chief magistrate, which I must preserve unimpaired In all its dignity and vigor, compel me to refuse compliance with these demands.' "The President is responsible to the people for his conduct relative to the retention or dismissal of public offlcalls. I assume that responsibility. And the people may be asured that as soon as I can be advised so that I may act with entire Justice to all parties concerned and fully protect the public Interests I shall act. '% do not propose to sacrifice any Innocent man for my own welfare, nor do I propose to retain In office any unfit man for my own welfare. I shall try to maintain the functions of the government unimpaired, to act upon the evidence and the law as I find it and to deal thoroughly and summarily with every kind of wrongdoing. "In the meantime such steps have been and are being taken as fully to protect the public Interests." Quell Convict Revolt.

Not only have they disappeared, but their memory is mostly continea to the puges of eld books. Strangely enough, the one surviving wonder is the oldest, It dates back almost 4,000 years before Christ, and It is still in good condition. It is the pyramid of Cheops at Ghizeh, in Egypt. The most notable thing about the pyramid was the care taken to protect it from grave robbers. All the entrances were sealed. There were several large chambers near the base of the structure built to mislead any one seeking the sepulchral chamber. This was 188 feet above the ground, and could be reached only by tortuous passages, cleverly concealed. The walls of Babylon were the second wonder. The third wonder was the statue of Zeus in the temple at Ephesus. The fifth was the mausoleum of Halicarnassus, in Carla. The sixth was the Colossus of Rhodes, and the seventh was the lighthouse of Alexandria at Pharos. It was Antlpater of Palestine, the Baedecker of the ancient world, who selected the seven wonders about 200 years before the birth of Christ.--Detroit News.
