CROPS BLOTTED FROM EARTH A Wide Area Devastated in Western Pennsylvania. Railroad Traffic in Vast Terri tory Is Demoralized. Pittsburg. July 25. Death and deso lation spread broadcast over thesouth west counties yesterday and last night through cloudbursts and overflowing streams. Three score or more lives are the toll while the damage to homes and industries can not be esti mated. Fifteen lives were lost in Superba mine No. 2, near Uniontown, seventy- five miners narrowly escaped death, while from many other sections come reports of lives lost by the mountain torrents rushing into mine slopes. Hun dreds of families deserting homes in a maa rush for safety on the mountain sides sought shelter beneath impro- issea snacKs and tents, toward the con struction of which every available piece ot debris was turned to account At daybreak shivering women and children gazed over the scene of deso lation in the Upper Youghiogheny val- ana as tne waters receded upturned dwellings, shattered buildings and crumbled piles of mortar were held in a conglomerated mass by a railroad nnage or trestle, or the prog ress of the debris had been impeded by some larger and staunrher biitiriir.e- It was long after midnight before me waters Dcgan to recede. Rain had ceased falling some hours earlier but the heavy precipitation soon made the usually dry beds of mountain streams veritable cataracts. Floods in these regions are or annual occurrence, for which preparations are made and comparatively little damage is done. Freshets caused bv hpa w anmmai- --rains occur several times a season, but the heavy waterfalls are carried away with only little damage. The cloud burst of yesterday, however, came be lore the district had recovered from more than 24 hours of torrential rains ?n Sunday and with every stream bank run, soon all were out of their banks. Power of Uie Elements. This morning as the waters cleared away, a stricken community gazes Bgh&st at the power of the elements. Heavy rocks have ben split, heavy rauroaa iron has been lifted from al- mnof enHH V. I 1 i I uu uroppeu into rivers while on all sides deep scars mark the surface of the earth where the crowding waters have made new courses for themselves. Dunbar, near Connellsville. was in undated The waters raged through the main street, upsetting massive structures and endangering the lixes vi nunareas or persona. A cloud- i'ur!?t was tne cause although it muugni a aam broke. The Turtle t'"' vauey was visited by a disss trous flood and the damage is enor mous. ltops were blotted from the Railroad traffic through a great ter ritory is demoralized. With four con nections into Lniontown the Ppnnsvl vania was unable to get passengers into ine cny eariy toaay. Several bridges of that system and the B. O. were torn from founda tions thought to be impregnable end hurled into the maddened waters. Hundreds are homeless. Thousands are suffering, towns are cut off from railroad, mall, telephone and tele graph connections and are in dark ness and are without fuel. From West Virginia no reports can be secured bv the weather bureau for almost every wire from that state is down. Many Towns Flooded. In the city the storm created havoc, but while streets were flooded and traffic delayed, the damage was not heavy. It was in the coke regions that the fury of the storm seemed to have been spent. Uniontown, Dunbar, Lemont. Mount Braddock, Connells ville, all were inundated and great damage was suffered. The greatest loss of life was due to the flooding of the Superba mine at Evans, nine miles from Uniontown. Fifteen miners are now accounted lost. Three are missing among the employees of mine No. 1 of the H. C. Frick Coke company, whose nine foot vein underlies the Superba workings.! This estimate will doubtless total all the casualties from Wednesday's per formance of the elements. Those who have penetrated the Su perba mine came out with reports of almost indescribable ruin. "It looks in there as if there had been an explosion of terrific force," said Frank Taggart, who accompanied Mine Foreman Gancer. "The water simply ripped up the tracks and twist ed and bent the rails in all sorts of shapes, in some places forming an al most impassable barrier. Supports were torn out, water filled the heading to the rjf." Gancer said the mine was filled to a point about 1,200 feet from the sur face opening. Beyond that the work ings extend in various directions about 3.100 feet and about 60 or 70 acres of openings are under water which contain the bodies of those unac counted for in checking lists at the mine office. BEVERIDGE QUITS PARTY letter to Progressive Announced He Is Not Republican. Indianapolis, July 25. Former Sen ator Albert J. Beveridge formally re nounced allegiance to the Republican party in a letter received last night by William Holt Dye, a leader of the Pro gressive party in Indiana. Mr. Bev eridge. who is spending the summer at Seal Harbor, Maine, says the letter is intended as an answer to queries of many Indiana friends, who sought to enow his position concerning the Progressive party. He says in his letter that if the new party does no more for Indiana than oust the old line political bosses, it will have performed a great blessing to the state. THURSDAY E.VEN1KG. NO LOVE FOR HER Girl Who Killed Father Long Hated by Him. Gamble Drore Daughter's In tended Husband From House. THREATENED TO KILL GIRL Ethel Gamble Believed Father Burglar; Shot Him. Mother Knew Man in Dark Was Her husband. Kansas City, July 25. Choked be fore the man she loved and her ro mance shattered because of her la ther's loathing for her. there is little wonder that Ethel Gamble, acquitted on the charge of murdering her father in court here Wednesday, showed no emotion at his death. Everything dear to a girl Gamble, the evidence showed, had tried to deny his daugh ter. Amone other thinn n.n broke off the engagement between his .v. a railroad engineer uw nome is at lloisington, Kan., according to S. U. Peet of Emporia, Kan. Peet is the girl's uncle. The Kansan was a regular caller at the Gamble nome, according to infor mation which was made public nt the coroner's hearing. Gamble believed that the Hoisington man called unon him. When he learned that this was not tne case, and that his friend and his daughter were engaged he made things so unpleasant for the man that the latter ceased to call and the en gagement was broken. Even when she was on trial for killing her fa ther the girl was not given the sup port of the presence of the man she loved. Among other things it is charged that Gamble choked his daughter be fore the man to whom she was en gaged. And this is only one incident of the abuse heaped upon her. Late ly, she said, she had been forced to give up all her boy and girl friends. Gamble Hated the Girl. Gamble seemed to possess an all surpassing hate for his child. And she in turn, hated her father. This might be accounted for by his treat ment of her. The dead man really loved his wife and when sober was kind to her. But between the daugh ter and her father there was always war. "Some day I am coming home and kill Ethel and then take my own life," evidence shows he said, "but I will leave my wife. Ethel's blood will lun in the street before I die." Thought He Was Burglar. Gamble was shot by his daughter as he came up the front stair of their house at night after entering through a window. The daughter declares she believed she was shooting a burglar when she killed her father. She says that had she known the identity of the man she shot she would have allowed him to kill her before shooting. "You know he was my father," she said. The mother, however, admitted she knew or bel'eved the man coming up ths stens was her husband. Just be fore the shot was fired she said she was certain of it- When the girl was acquitted she threw herself into the arms of her uncle, and burst into tears. It was tho first tim since the killing that she had shown any emotion. ONLY SHOWERS. Rain Tills Morning Not General and Heaviest Fall at Topeka.

UP FOR SATURDAY Supreme Court Will Again Hear Injunction Case. Status of T. R. Electors to Be Decided Then. THE TAFT MEN DETERMINED They Go Back to Supreme Court From Branine. After Judge Refused to Make Injunction Permanent. .Records of the appeal from Judge Branine's court to enjoin the placing of the names of the Roosevelt elec toral candidates on the primary elec tion ballots were filed today in the supreme court and the question set for hearing at 9 o'clock Saturday morning. The temporary restraining order granted more than a week ago by the Harvey county judge- is still In effect and is operative pending the fin al action of the higher court. Under the stipulation of the lawyers. following the hearing in Hutchinson Tuesday, the records in the case were due in the supreme court at noon to day. They were filed at 11 o'clock by D. R. Hlte, representing the Taft in terests in the controversy. A second stipulation provides that the restrain ing order will remain in force if by Friday noon an agreement for imme diate hearing is made by the regulars. This contest will be filed tomorrow and Saturday morning the case will be heard on its merits. Tw o of the asso ciate justices of the court Judge Ben. son and Judge Burch are in Colorado and will not sit. -aA Concerning the Issues to be raised by the Taft forces in the hearing be fore the supreme court, Fred S. Jack son today made a statement in which he meets the argument of Chester 1. Long and insists that the people have a right to a voice in the present party quarrel. Fred Jackson's Statement. vr candidate for president has the right in law or common justice to have 1 T- ..Ulinnn Vial Int 1 n his name on tne ntp""""" Kansas until it has been indorsed and ;.i ner the law to the Secretary of State by the state organization of that party, the organization reco8i" and protected by the laws of the state, said Jackson. The party council and the state committee to be chosen at Via tirimarv at. the same time the presidential electors are to be voted on, is the living voice and at the same time, the supreme court of the party. Will Senator Long abide by Its decision, or will he bolt? "The Republicans of Kansas, pro gressives, and in many cases those who style themselves regulars, have worked assiduously for seven years to make the party progressive in its policies and laws, as popularly understood in poli tics today. "The success of the Republiian par ty in Kansas at the present time is largely due to its advancement and In crease in strength in the last few years. Boss Tweed said years ago that he was always willing that the people should vote for the candidates he nominated, and Boss Barnes, his grandson, representing the spirit or his distinguished grandfather, now proposes that the courts shall pre vent the voters of Kansas and other states from any expression as to the nominees of their party. "The opposition appeals to equity and two well known principles of equity settle the controversy: 'That which is done in fraud is not done at all,' and if President Taft was nomi nated by fraud, he was not nominated Let the people say. The other princi ple of equity is: "That must be con sidered done which should be done.' The delegates to the national conven tion from Kansas, almost half of all the delegates conceded to be entitled to seats in the convention, and mil lions of voters all over the country honestly believe that Theodore Roose- velt, who Chairman Root character ized as the most distinguished Repub lican of the age, had more than a majority of the legally elected dele gates to the Chicago convention. In equity, therefore, he is the Republican nominee. The supreme court of Kan sas has said that the fact that he is also the nominee of some other party, representing similar principles, is in material. Let the people Judge. "Senator Long proposes to fight; that is right. The Republicans of Kansas propose to fight to keep the same men, who destroyed the Repub lican convention at Chicago and pos sibly tne Republican party in the na tion, from taking by force and vio lence the party name and emblem in Kansas. It belongs to the rank and file of Kansas Republicans. Let them decide; let them use it as they deem best." DON'T WANT BRYAN, Friends of Champ Clark Obtain Can, eellation of Lecture Date. Mexico, Mo., July 25. Will Daniel, hoc. retary of the Vandalia, Mo., Chautauqua association, nas received a message from the Redpath Vawter Chautauqua system saying that Bryan's date at Vandalia had been "reluctantly" cancelled. The Chau tauqua people took a vote on the matter, sending cards to the citizens of Van dalia, who had guaranteed the advance ticket sale, and the result practically was a unanimous demand that Bryan's dale be cancelled. Vandalia is in Speaker Champ Clark's congressional district. HAD TO HAVE BREAD. So Andrew Cole, Aged 80 Years, Will Marry Fair Baker, Aged 36. New York, July 25. Announce ment is made here of the engagement of Andrew Cole, a wealthy Brooklyn lumber merchant, to Miss Anna Schultz. Mr. Cole is 80 years old. and Miss Schultz is 36. They will be mar ried this week. Friends said today that Mr. Cole fell in love with his neighbor after he had eaten several loaves at ftnmm TOPEKA. KANSAS. JULY; 25, made brown bread from her oven. Because he thought life would not be worth living unless he could be as sured of a continuous supply of that delicious bread, ne asked her to be come his briae. "There isn't going to be any honey- moon," explained Mr. Cole to inquir ers, "but we're going to have a fine wedding supper, with brown bread for the wedding cake." BRITTAINLOCATED He's Wanted in Elk County for Death of Girl. Located in Jiew Mexico Prison Serving Time for Theft. Application was maue to the gover nor's office today for extradition papers for the return of Don Brittain to Kan sas for the murder of Maude Bingham, a pretty 18-year-old Elk county girl. Brittain is now serving time in the state penitentiary of New Mexico for horse stealing. f The killing of Maude Bingham was one of the most sensational murders in the history of Elk county and for nearly a month the. coroner's jury worked to establish the links in a chain of circumstantial evidence that connected Brittain with the young woman's death. Almost immediately after the girl died, Krittain fled. He went to New Mexico. and a few months ago was arrested on a charge of hors stealing. He is now serving time m the penitentiary and an effort will be made to bring the man to Kansas foi trial on a murder charge. Maude Bingham was a pretty,- well meaning, unsophisticated country gin She lived with her parents a few miles from Howard and it was while visiting in that town that she met Brittain The couple had kept company several months and on numerous occasions Brittain had taken the young woman buggy riding. On the afternoon of November 22, last year, Brittain drove to the Bing ham home. The young woman went with him for a drive. When she left home she appeared cheerful and well. That evening when Brittain drove back to the Bingham home his sweetheart of a few months was dead. Her body was still warm and physicians were summoned, but without result. To the doctors and neighbors Brittain told contradictory stories concerning the girl's death. That night he fled. A coroner's jury was summoned to inquire into facts surrounding the girl's death. On December ii, tttey return ed a verdict, placing ihe blame at Brit tain's door. Evidence which came to light after Miss Bingham's death showed that Brittain had visited a drug store the day his sweetheart died. At the store the young man had pur chased certain tablets, which it is be lieved he gave the girl to relieve her condition. In a little ravine, some distance from the Brittain home, offi cers found the wrapper which con tained the drug. They, also found a Dortion of a package of candy and tjortion of the dead girl's garments. But Brittain was gone and not until recently was it learned that he had subseqeuntly been sentenced to a term in the state prison of New Mexico, In the mind of County Attorney J. A. McHepry of Elk county is a doubt as to the offsense witn wnicn isrittain may be held. Perhaps the most se vere punishment under the circum stances surrounding the crime will be first degree manslaughter, although an effort will be made to hold Brittain for first degree murder. The application for extradition pa pers was presented by the attorney general's office on behalf of the Elk county prosecutor. WANT NAGEL'S SCALP. Taft Leaders Are Trying to Obtain His Resignation. Washington, July 25. Criticism of i"..w" T Cha Nagel, Secretary of Commerce and La bor, to leave the cabinet. Although denied at the White House, there is a persistent rumor that Nagel will resign his portfolio before the November general election. It is said that several persons very close to the president politically, and it is even hinted that a member of the cabinet, have been to Mr. Taft and have urged that he suggest to Mr. Nagel that he resign. The same authority, however, avers that the president is loath to go that far and has thus far refused .to listen to the "knocks." Nagel's trouble with the White Housa crowd started when he went to St. Louis last spring to represent the presi dent at the Missouri convention. The way the president's friends look at it, Nagel misrepresented the president on that occasion. Roosevelt controlled the convention and captured the four dele- gates-at-large, Nagel saying that the Taft contests from Kansas City and St. Joseph had no merit. Before Nagel re turned to Washington from St. Louis he was spoken of as traitor" and 'quitter.'' The meeting of the Republican na tional committee came in June. Nagel was then the national committeeman from Missouri. Just before the meeting time of the committee he announced tha he had given his proay to Repre sentative Bartholdt. MERCHANTS' WEEK. Decided to Continue Annual Affair in Topeka, This YTear. It is now almost a certainty that there will be a "merchants' week" entertainment here in October. The finance committee appointed to pro cure pledges from members of the Jobbers' and Manufacturers' associa tion is now hard at work, and a num ber of members of the association have pledged themselves to do their part to support the enterprise. The members of the committee are John T. Witt, Samuel E-.JL.ux and Clyde Lawrence. It is estimated that at least 1,500 merchants of Kansas are ready to ac cept an invitation to come to Topeka for three days of entertainment. Weather Forecast for Kansas.

Officials Predict 20 Per Cent Supply Decrease. ONLY F0URM0RE YEARS Gloomy Outlook for Jfatural Gas in Future. Mayor Billard Returns From Kansas City Conference. Mayor Billard and old man Gloom. sitting in the same seat, arrived in. To peka last evening after the gas con ference in Kansas City. The mayor and Gloom sat together In the office at the city hall this afternoon. Here is the message Gloom brings to tne city of Topeka: iV The eras supply this winter- will be 20 per cent less than it was last win ter. C21 On account of a change in the pumping plant, the gas company will be unable to handle a chilly spell In SeDtember. (3) In all probability the gas supply will last only four more years decreas ing in pressure every year. (4) An attempt will be made to raise the price from 25 cents to 50 cents a thousand cubic feet Co) A large number of the wells in the gas district have played out al together. Others are growing weaker every day. No relief in sight. (6) Nothing for the citizens to do this winter but buy coal to keep warm. The gas will be useless in severe weather. Draw a black line around the above funeral notice and remember Gloom's visit to Topeka on a hot summer's day. Mayor Discouraged Mayor Billard has given it up. He went to -the conference at Kansas City with a growing hope that relief could be promised to the shivering citizens this winter. He returned to Topeka discouraged and "disgusted. He found nothing but gloom. The gas officials in attendance admitted the gas wells were playing out. They were not a bit hack ward in saying that the supply this winter would be only 80 per cent of the supply las t winter. They threw up their hands when it was suggested that more wells be connected. And the only ray of hope that penetrated that sweltering conference was a hint from gas officials that the supply could be improved if if and here the conference heads dropped if the rates could be raised Mayor Billard will not listen to the lone argument of the gas officials for a better supply. He says he has no faith in the theory that by increasing the cost of gas the consumption would be decreased. The Topeka mayor does not believe in the people relieving them selves at their own expense. He says If tnrere is an increase in price it should be made to large consumers allowing the smaller users to have enough gas to keep warm. The mayor found another condition leading to the many reasons why To peka is short of gas in cold weather. Kansas City, Mo., consumes half .the gas cf the fields. All of the Kansas towns and St. Joseph are required to divide the remaining half. And at that Kansas City has shortages. Don't depend on gas this winter." warns the mayor todav. "We are not going to have the supply we had last winter and that was bad enough. If 25 per cent of the people in Topeka would use coal I believe the remain ing 75 per cent would have enough gas. There Is a weak chance that the pipe lines will be extended to Okla homa. but no assurance is given. But the citizens of Topeka can not dodge the ultimatum the gas supply will be short. It will take coal to keep warm NEW SYSTEM. Proposed for Topeka Fire Fighters on Hours Off and On. It has been suggested at the city hall that the Topeka fire department be placed on the double plontoon system of employ ing firemen. Under this system, firemen are allowed to spend half the day at their home, where now they are in service all day and night. The double plontoon system is practiced successfully in Kansas City and Omaha. In other cities the Topeka plan is used. Under this idea the firemen spend twelve hours a day at their engine house one month. The next month they spend tne night twelve hours at the station. -i h rest of the time they have to themselves. The objection to the double plontoon system is that a fireman never Is allowed to leave the station while on duty. He must eat his meals there and must be ready for action at a moment's alarm. The night shifts are required to remain in uniform and stay awake all night. The double plontoon plan would require an additional shift of firemen in Topeka. In all probability ten extra men would be needed. This is the main argument against it here the expense. The Topeka plan allows a man meal hours off. Also one day in nine they are at leisure. They are given permission to be off a few minutes at a time and they sleep In the station at night. FLIGHT IS SHORT. Aeroplane Costing $30,000 Wrecked in Two Minutes. New York, July 25. Flying at the rate of one hundred miles an hour in an untried monoplane, which had cost him three years' work and $30,000 In money, Edson F. Gallaudet, after a flight of less than two minutes, crashed from a height of 400 feet to the new field near Westbury, L. I. The aeroplane was utterly demolish ed; Gallaudet was painfully but not ser iously injured. Gallaudet is a wealthy young engineer from Norwich, Conn. His wife is the daughter of former Senator Cockrell of Missouri. The Gallaudets are well known in society in New Tork and Washington. Three years ago Mr. Gallaudet and hta brother began work on the craft which was smashed. IT IS NOTFAVORED City Hall Scorns Municipal Electric Plant Idea. Commissioners Are Against $400,000 Bond Issue. FEAR UNION LABOR TROUBLE City Dodges Slap at Topeka Hallway Company. Industrial Council Scheme Meets Quick Defeat. The proposition of the union men of Topeka submitted to the board of city commissioners asking that Topeka vote for a bond Issue of $400,000 to build a municipal electric lighting plant with current for commercial purposes, has been given a discouraging reception at the city hall. Not one city commission er can be found today who is willing to state that he would support a bond issue of this kind. It is predicter free ly that the voters never will be asked to vote bonds for increasing the scope of the plant unles sof course, the Edi son company inflicts unfair rates. It is apparent from the opinions ex pressed by the city commissioners that the efforts of the Industrial council of Topeka to slap the street railway com pany through the Edison company has failed. The labor leaders in this city were angered at the defense of the street car officials in resenting the unionizing of their employees. The Topeka Rail way company and the Edison company are under the same management and the union men resolved to start a sen timent for a municipal plant for com mercial purposes. Don't Want Labor Fight. There is a feelincr also at the citv hall that the city has no desire to enter into a union labor fight. It is feared that the commercializing of the municipal plant would be the first step in this direction. Officials at the city hall declare that the absence of union trouble is one of the best assets of Topeka. They have no ambitions to Jump into the skirmish. W. C. Ralston, city attorney, on re quest from a number of interested tax payers in Topeka declared today that the city had an absolute right to build and maintain a electric light plant for light, power and heat. The last legis lature, he said, took special pains to make this plain on the statute books. The Edison franchise in Topeka has no string tied to the city plant. The rates charged by the Edison company at this time are as a whole satisfactory, according to the city com missioners. As long as the people are satisfied, they say, there is no disposi tion for a bond issue to begin compe tition. HE WAS A WORKER Rosenthal Gave Dix Largest Majority in State. Finger Prints Now Being Test ed Money Plentiful. New Tork. July 25. Herman Rosen thal, the murdered gambler, gave to Governor Dix the greatest majority the Democratic candidate received in any single district in the election of 1910. Rosenthal was the Tammany leader in the Nineteenth election district of the Third assembly district and when all the votes had been counted that dis trict proved to be the banner Demo cratic district of the entire state. The votes cast or at least counted for all the other candidates against Governoi Dix in that district did not number a dozen. Nor was that the first time that Rosenthal had done yeoman service for Tammany on the East side. He was known as the great reliance of that party when some of the East side dis tricts which had been controlled by Tammany leaders for generations show ed evidence of an inclination to seek a new political boss of the race that had driven out the population of past years. Compare the Finger Prints. One line of investigation of the Ros enthal murder, it developed today, is through finger prints taken several days ago from the doors of Louis Lib by's gray automobile, used by the gambler's slayers. These have been compared with the ringer prints of Frank Muller, alias "Whitey" Lewis; Frank Murate, alias "Dago" Frank; Louis Marks, alias "Lefty" Louie; Har ry Horowitz, alias "Gyp The Blood," and Samuel Schepps, all of which are part of the records of the detective bu reau. The result of the comparison has not been made public. Ten dollar bank notes are declared never to have been so plentiful among certain habitues of the section near Broadway and Forty-second street as within the last few days, since in vestigators, public and private, have been trying to round up witnesses of the killing. The plethora of cash seems to have induced a state of suspended memory on the part of chauffeurs. newsboys, hangers-on of various re sorts and others who might be sun- posed to have knowledge of the inci dents of the crime or events in connec tion with it that preceded or followed The report was current today that per sons who are interested in seeing thai a minimum of evidence is offered ha? been around with a "dough bag," and had provided for all who even assert ed- they knew anything about the trag edy.

WHITE Controyersy Between Editor and Senator Continued. Curtis Accuses Editor of Delib erate Falsehood. GARBLED FACTS ON RECORD Curtis' Tote Was Sincere, hut White Twisted Meaning. Why Doesn't White Keep Out of the Gamel United States Senator Charles Cur tis today made public his reply to the second attack on his official record by William Allen White of the Emporia Gazette. The senior senator charges the Emporia publisher with a mali cious misrepresentation of the record and deliberately misquoting his stand on several public questions. Then, too. Senator Curtis contaminates Bclfl tow and -ther progressives with a, stand with Lo rimer, Aldrlch and tha old line workers in the senate to whose interests the record of Curtis was tied' by White. Insinuations by White that Curtis was elected by corporation influence, by contributions from the railroads and the big public service corpora tions is branded as absolutely false.: Curtis also hits back at White con-' cerning the vote on the hides tariff, and insists that his vote against free hides was in the Interests of the Kan-' sas stock producers and after per sonal requests by Thomas Potter, rabid reformer, and other prominent Kansans. Other misrepresentation are charged against White and a per sistent claim is made that the pub-1 lisher Ignorantly or wilfully garbled' the records. Curtis replies to White in this tones White's Letter Misleading. "My Dear Mr. White: "I have Just read your second let ter and it is really unfortunate for your friends that you will insist in writing about the action of members of congress and their votes when you have no knowledge on the subject and seem to be too dull to understand the Record when you read it. Tour sec ond letter is very misleading and in many places clearly untrue. "I am surprised that you should be so indiscreet as to refer to the vote in the senate on the question of elect ing senators by a direct vote, because you compel me to show that your friend voted on both sides on a very important amendment. The Congres sional Record shows that I voted for the Sutherland amendment and that Senator Bristow voted against it. Congressional Record, February 24. page 8466.) r "It further shows that on May 15. 1911, when the question was again presented that Senator Bristow of fered the Sutherland amendment (the one he had voted against in the pre vious session) as his own and wis. i.i in th language. and if you will examine the Rorl for June 12, 1911. you will And that we voted together for the amendment So you see I voted consistently while Senator Bristow voted on both sides of the question. He said during the last session that he had vinced that those of us who had vot:d for the Sutherland amendment were right. Mr. White, why can't you give he facte and stop trying to deceive the peopde as to my votes? I have voted to elect senators by a o'r" vote whenever the h"ht up during my service in both house ToTseem to place great stress on the fact that Senator Lorimer and I voted together, you Intentionany fall t state that he is a Republican, that I am a Republican, and that on the votes mentioned we voted with the Republi can majority in the senate. No Corporation Money. T was elected as a Republican and have voted with my party and shall continue to do so. You insinuate that I voted as I did because the corpora tions contributed to the campaign fund. Now I desire you to understand that tn the campaign ten years ago. when I was defeated for the United States Senate, and In the campaign six years ago when 1 was elected to the senate, that no corporation directly or indirectly contributed a dollar to my campaign fund and I did not receive a dollar from either the congressional or the national Republican campaign commit tees in either of the contests, and that in the present campaign not a dollar has been contributed Dy any corpora tion or person. I wish you could say as much for those you are supporting. If you have the time you might tefl how much money that came from the millionaires Perkins, Morgan. Fltnn, Munsey and McCormick you have spent and are now spending. "When you allege that every railroad attorney in the state supported me you know you state a malicious falsehood. You made this same false charge six years ago. You knew then that it was untrue and know now that It is false. "In my open letter to you a few days ago I fully covered the tariff question. I do not intend to go over it again ex cept to say. that I voted with the Re publican majority to get the best bill possible, while your friend Bristow voted against his party one hundred and one times. I would not have re ferred to Mr. Bristow if you had not brought his name Into this controversy. That Free Hides Bill. "If you could have read the letters I received from the farmers of Kansas urging me to vote against free hides I do not believe you would have called attention to the subject. Hon. Thomas Potter, of Peabody, Kansas, who came to Washington to oppose free hides can tell you of the feeling and also that I stood by the farmers in that contest. I did what I could to defeat the froe hides amendment and told the senators that free hides would not reduce the price of shoes or leather goods and my prediction has been verified.

s THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL JULY 25, 1912 POLITICAUJOSSIP F. M. Hamaker of Lebanon Is Against Capper. All on Account of Roosevelt Taft Controversy. WHITES TO TELL REASONS Anthony Had Good Meeting and Crowd at Sabetha, Third District Congressional Fight Getting Warm. Since Arthur Capper declared him elf for the Roosevelt electoral candi dates and against Taft and the work of the Republican national' convention In Chicago, his mail box has been fill ed with messages from constituents in different sections of the state. Some of these communications have been very kind and favorable. Some have been Wtter and severe In the denunciation of the Topekan's stand. Now, F. M. Hamaker. a Republican leader in Le banon, who circulated the Capper peti tions in his precinct, withdraws his eupport and promises to work for Cap per's defeat In the primaries and In the November election, if necessary. The letters to Capper have come by very mail, from every section of the atate and from men whose counsel in party affairs In years agone. has been considered valuable. Some months age Capper, according to Hamaker. prom ised to support Taft. if nominated. It was on the strength of this promise, Hamaker declares, that he was induced to circulate the Topekan's nomination papers. Now he is grieved and shock ed by the friendship of the Topeka pub lisher for the Roosevelt electoral can didates. Hamaker. in his letter, says: "Arthur Capper. "Topeka, Kans.. "Dear Sir: In reply to your question you recently submitted to ir.e through the medium of a circular letter, ask ing mv politics, I beg leave to inform you that I am a Republican, not for office only, but because I believe In the principles of the party. "The second question you ask, is, -Can I count on your support for Governor?- My answer Is, No. "No man can have my support for governor or any other office who claims to be a Republican and at the same time bolting the Republican nominee for president and vice president of the Vnited States. This is what I under stand you are doing under the direc tion of 'Boss' Allen, White and the Roosevelt 'Boss' quarters in Topeka. "Tou wrote me last spring that you wanted to harmonize the Republican party in this state. Tou told othar parties in tills county that you would support Tait if he was nominated. "With that understanding, I circu lated your petition or nomination paper In this precinct, believing that you we-e a Republican. "The fact that you are now support ing men for presidential electors who Iiavo mihUdv a nnminrMl that t h r wilt TUIC 1171 HUM'" I 1L 1 1' I 1.1 ll'I L LI 11 publican candidate for president, is sufficient evidence to convince any one that you are not a Republican; hut simply parading as one for office. Inasmuch as you do not consider the nomination of Mr. Taft binding on you s a Republican, therefore no Republi can who has heretofore promised you his support la in duty bound to keep his promise to support you. Your deliberate bolt of the Republican nominee for president releases all Republicans from any obligation whatever to support you in the August primary. If you are really opposed to fraud and deception In politics you should not let your name appear on the Republican ballot In the August primaries. "I hereby notify you thja. t I have withdrawn my promise to support you In the August primary and if you should be the nominee of the Republi can party and continue your support of Roosevelt under the direction of the Roosevelt 'boss quarters I with thous ands of other Republicans will not sun port you In November.

Kansas, under its .present political management, is one cf the worst boss ridden states in the Union. "A few men dictate who shall be the Republican candidates for presi dential electors and then dictate to those men that they must not vote for the Republican nominees for president and vice president of the United States and straightway the boss selected can didates announce that they will vote for Roosevelt if nominated and elected on the Republican ticket. This is what 'Boss' .Allen, White and a few other dictators call the square deal In politics? If their cause is a righteous one and Mr. Roosevelt is the choice of a majority of the people, why not put his name and electors on a. separate ballot and go before the people with an honest front? "The men who are pushing Mr. Roosevelt's candidacy under the be lief that it will help them in August will find him a millstone around their necks in November. "The names of men on the Republi can ticket who will not support the Republican candidates for president and vice president will compel fifty to sixty thousand Republican voters to withhold their support from the Re publican ticket. And there will be no Roosevelt victory to celebrate next fall and no Roosevelt officers to inaugurate next spring. The bolters in Kansas have more to lose from their action than anyone else. Their loss will be Democratic gain. Yours very truly, "F. M. HAMAKER." Congressman D. R. Anthony is mak ing a hard fight for renomination in the First district and his speaking cal endar until the date of the primaries is filled. Judge W. L Stuart, who is opposing the Leavenworth publisher for the nomination, is also making a hard campaign and the issues are closely drawn between the two men, represent ing the progressive and regular views of Republicanism. For several days Anthony has been waging his fight in Brown and Nemaha counties. Last night he spoke to a crowd of 500 peo ple at Sabetha. Reports from the meet ing state that Anthony will draw strength from both factions of the party in Nemaha county and that many Roosevelt Republicans favor his can didacy. The record of Congressman Phil I. Campbell, of the Third district, is be ing ridiculed and scorned by Wilbur F. Allen, chairman of the Third district Progressive Republican committee. Al len took a few days off and investiga ted Campbell's official record as re ported in the Congressional Record. When Allen had completed this task, he immediately stated that the Camp bell record smelled like a piece of Lim- berger cheese in comparison with puri fied politics as it is preached in Kan sas. So Allen devotes three columns of solid reading matter to the setting out of the Campbell record and Invites the Third district representative to set himself right with the people. Judge A. M. Jackson. Democratic can didate for governor, is devoting his time to the campaign in the First and Second districts this week. Next week he will enter the Third district, where he will close the fight. And in trans ferring the scene of battle to the First, Second and Third, Judge Jackson meets the request of his opponent, Senator Hodges, who recently wanted to know why the Winfleld lawyer didn't cam paign in "Billard" territory.

Young Farm Hand Missing Since Night of July 6. NOT ENOUGH INVESTIGATION Neighborhood Regards Police and Sheriff Derelict. Urge That Force Continue Search for Man. The whereabouts of William Denny, the farm hand who was employed on the W. S. Robinson farm, known as the "Page farm," northwest of To peka, is still a mystery although he has been missing since June 6. A few days later Mr. Robinson reported his disappearance to the police and sher iff's force. They promised to look into the matter, but today the farrrters of the neighborhood think that the in vestigation was not carried on thor oughly enough and the suspicion of foul play grows stronger each day. M. Lewis, a confectioner and dealer in musical instruments at 91S North Kansas avenue, appears to be the last person to have seen Mr. Denny wnen the farm hand was In his shop about 11 o'clock of the night of his disap pearance. According to Mr. Lewis he came In to inquire about trading a violin. He walked out of the store after a moment's conversation. He in timated that he would call again. Shortly before this he left his com panions, Charles Jackson, Earl Taylor and a Mr. Young, according to their statements, at Kansas avenue ana Laurent street, saying that he was go ing to see about getting a violin, ana requested them to wait for him a few moments. The young men mentioned are also farmers. The few moments lengtnen ed into half an hour and the party began to hunt for him. After an hour they gave up and went home. Was He Slugged and Robbed? At that time Denny had about $40 in his clothes. It is feared that some one slugged and robbed him and eith er carried him off alive or killed him and hid his body. No other reason for his staying away can be given as far as is known. He had no love affairs as far as was learned. He was about 25 years old and nice appearing. He was quite intelligent and well edu cated. He had attended an agricul tural school in Oklahoma, but left on account of being mixed op in a hazing scrape. His parents, he said, are dead, but he has an uncle living in Nemaha county, his boyhood home. Because no relatives are prodding up the investigation, and because the farmers feel that proper steps are not being taken to learn the truth of the affair, the farmers who knew him are becoming indignant. They think that the fact that young Denny left a good and medium suit of clothes at the Robinson farm, had decided to take violin lessons of Charles Calkins, whose farm is not far from the Robin son place, and had taken one lesson, as well as other things, point to the in tention of the young man to remain near Topeka. They are inclined to think that he did not voluntarily leave and from day to day greatly fear that he has been done, away with. Mrs. J. E. McDaniels of 1315 North Quincy street.

Try to be fair Mr. White and do not attempt to deceive the pecple again on this point. Bristow With Aklricli and Lorimer. "You intentionally' misrepresent my votes on corporation tax. You say I voted against exempting small corpor-! ations when the Record shows that I voted to exempt corporations or asso ciations, the gross sales of which did not exceed one hundred and fifty thousand dollars per annum, while Senator Bristow voted against exempt ing them. Congressional Record, July, page 4,354. Mr. Bristow voted with Senators Aldrich and Lorimer on this question. Again on page 4,356 the Record shows that I voted against Mr. Aldrich's motion to table the Mc- Laurin amendment which exempted from liability to make returns the cor porations the capital stock of which did not exceed fifty thousand dollars, and the net income of which did not exceed five thousand dollars. Senator Bristow again voted with Senators Aldrich and Lorimer. "If the position taken by me had been followed by a majority of the senators the thousands of small corporations would not have been troubled on this question as they have been for the last two years and it would have saved them many dollars they have been compelled to pay under the law foi not having made their reports in time "Of course you know that religious, fraternal and benevolent societies are exempt from the provisions of the cor poration tax but you try to make the people believe that they are not. "When you say the French spolia tion claims are vicious grafts you make a malicious misstatement, be cause many of those claims are hon est and they should be settled and the interested parties should have a chancf to be heard and to present their cases Don't you think in view of your record in Lyon county you should keep a little quiet on the claim question? White Hade Many Mistakes.

I would like to see tht mall delivered as quickly as possible and by American ships if possible. "I did vote against increasing the duty on lemons, I did it notwithstand ing the fact I had received wires from some of your associates urging me to Vote to increase the duty. Perhaps, you sent the same kind of a message tc your friends. I voted against increas ing the duty because I considered lem ons a necessity. Voted for LaFoIlette Amendment. "You again deliberately mistake my vote on the wood pulp and print papei amendment. I voted for the LaFollette amendment (see Record June 18 p. 3556) and again on page 3657 you will see that I voted against the Aldrich amendment on this subject. "In this last letter you again at tempt to deceive the people on the re ciprocity question. I was against re ciprocity with Canada, I did not believe it could be amended so as to make it good for the people of Kansas so I voted against it and against amend ing it. I did not want it in any shape and a large majority of the people of Kansas were against it. My letters showed that they were about nine to one against it. That Lorimer Vote.

The close was steady, c net lower for evidence and I did it without consult ing any person and I gave my reasons for so doing to the public "When you state that I was elected by the public service corporations you reflect on a majority of the good peo ple of Kansas, for a majority of the people were for me. The men whom you favored were not in the running and they could not combine so as to defeat me and as you no doubt know, they did not have the strength to pre vent a Republican caucus, as some of them desired to do. "The people of Kansas having elect ed me to the position I occupy I have voted to protect their interests when ever opportunity offered the people have prospered under Republican poli cies and judging from reports you have made your share. Questions White's Republicanism. "Mr. White, I am a Republican and am a candidate for renomination on the Republican ticket, and If you feel as you write you surely cannot claim to be a Republican. If you are not, why don't you keep out of the game? "You wrote of free men when you don't know the meaning of the word. You won't support a man unless he does as you bid. Those who follow you are not free men. "On party questions I believe in standing with my party but on ques tions which are not partisan I claim the record shows that I have been as free as a man could be, as is evidenced by the fact that I opposed the proposi tion in congress to permit railroads to enter into pooling agreements even though it was recommended by your friend Theodore Roosevelt, and I op posed Canadian reciprocity although It was recommended by the president."

F.RNIPPS Candidate County Commissioner, City District, Composed of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Wards There is more and more of a demand by the voters and tax payers for better business methods in the con duct of all public affairs. The most of the funds for carryingon the business of the county are raised by a direct tax on all of the real and per sonal' property in the county. The real business then of the Board of County Commissioners is to see that this money is not wasted or injudiciously spent. I MAKE THE PROMISE THAT IF I BECOME A MEMBER of this board that I WILL oppose every proposition which is a waste of the tax payers' money, or in which there is an ap pearance of graft. I BELIEVE in good roads, g-ood bridges and other public improvements so far as we can afford them. I BELIEVE also that contracts for work and material should be let to the low est responsible bidder; and that the contractor, as well as the county, should be made to fulfill the terms of the contract. I BELIEVE the meetings of the board should be in open sessions and that all acts of the board should be an open book to be examined or scrutinized, if desired, by any or all citizens. Respectfully, (Signed) F. K Nipps (luatuasnjaApv) Topeka- Is on the bottom in fielding according to the last batch of oicil averages sent out irom Liuta6. a percentage of .951. But did you no tice that the leaders, Denver and Lin coln, were tied just six points ahead with an average of .957? There are half a dozen players who will make some team stronger when the Central Kansas League season ends August 9. Whether any of them beside the recalled Manhattan players, will come to Topeka has not yet been decided. Evans is playing Tommy Reilly's position at third base for the Packers and the scribes there expect the team to move up again The Packers can t blame the Kaws for their loss. The Topekans did all they could to help that team by dropping three out of four on the last trip there. Why can't the Kaws take more than one game in a series on the road? This has been their average most of the season. There have been a few cases whSEthev broke even and in one case they took three out of four. But since rLrl .i,. Mt r n the team seems Tnat wine? L equal to only one victory in a town. Saturday the Kaws will be home to begin a 12 game stay, the first stay of an length Since they left early in the spring for Denver If they are ever rSlbeSriPr during the coming series with ues mo", Sioux City. The girls will get to see Tommy Reilly sooner than they expected. Thomas has been soiu w -and the Isbells come her Saturday. Sioux City comes later in the At Home stay of the Kaws. Tommy hasn t been going especially well for the Sioux earn Cooley, who introduced Reilly into this league, insisted that the ball player should have been born an old woman. As today is double header day nt Lincoln, perhaps we will get our game for the series and then there need be no more worrying until the team gets home. Deacon House predicts the Kaws will win one game of each series played on this road trip. The trouble is that House allows his enthusiasm to get away with his judgment. Anyhow, the writer never has sought the umpires after the game and begged them to "give us something." Neither has he made any threat as to what would happen otherwise. According o the reports of umpires visiting Topeka, this has occurred in a city on the northern end of the loop. t- .nv,!.tQkhan mirists willlieht (r ui ici upon our now well bruised and ema- 1 a it ha 1. nnu'n that trio T-o ciaten name it v ports of the Lincoln game telling how the Kaws received the worst of it from the umpires was written in Lincoln and not by this writer. Lincoln and St. Joseph have declared war and the attendance in both towns will be better. Nothing gets out the crowd like a fight between the news papers over the alleged ill treatment of a team. And St. Joseph manages to have one of these things on with the best draw ing club in the league every year. Last year the row was with Denver. Tep. The fans in St. Joseph are af ter Kelly now.

FULL LEASED WIRE REPORT OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. The State Journal is a member of the Associated Press and receives ths full. day telegraph report of that great news or ganisation for the exclusive afternoon publication in Topeka. The news is received in The State Jour al building over wires for this sole pur pose. HOME NEWS WHILE AWAY. 8ubv itxvn of the State Journal away from home during the snraroer may have the paper mailed regularly each day to any ddress at the rate of ten cents a week or thirty eents a month (by nail only). Address changed as often as desired. While out of town the State Journal will be to yon like a daily letter from home. Advance payment is requested on these short time subscriptions, to save bookkeeping ex censes. This sounds reasonable. Jack John eon thinks there are four colored fight ers who are better than any of the "white hopes." For every man killed in flying a dozen die boating and swimming. It is in the few who survive that aviation makes a poor showing. Where is the civilized state which really leans upon its sovereign and feels that It would be at sea without his hand on the helm? There are grain trade optimists who express the opinion that the wheat harvest of the country will be nearly equal to the year's crop of campaign lies. Mr. Lorimer seems to be one of those rare .individuals who is disposed to profit by experience. He proposes never again to be a candidate for pub lie office. Japan is most fortunate In one re spect. In case the present Mikado dies, the country will not be torn to pieces with a political campaign for the se lection of his successor. Every kind of a gambling house and room in New York city is now closed tighter than a drum. And If this con dition is continued the murder of Ros enthal will not have been entirely In vain. Now that the heat records for the year have been broken, the weather men ought to be satisfied with their honors, and dish up a more acceptable brand of weather. This would be agree able to everybody else. Wilbur Glenn Voliva, successor of the late Alexander Dowie as overseer of Zlon City, also seems to be pretty fair as a get-rich-quick artist. His par ishioners contributed 7,600 to his bank roll in a single offering the other day. (With the capture of the last Cuban "general" in the Insurgent forces, an other much-needed object lesson ha been taught to hot-headed and ease loving Islanders who have looked upon rebellion as the surest and straightest road to sinecures. That story about Colonel Roosevelt being addicted to the use of intoxicat ing liquors to excess Is being denied so emphatically and profusely by him self and his newspaper friends, that more people will probably be Inclined tc the belief that there Is something tc It. Governor Wilson is even a greater man than his most ardent adm'irers have insisted. His speech accepting the Democratic presidential nomination Is to be a short one. But it may be that Mr. Wilson's Idea of a short speech Is at variance with that held by other people. John Bull is in the mood Just now to comb Canada for Indian runners iwho can win as Thorpe and Sock alexis and Tewanima won for the United States at Stockholm. He is also thinking of training a few Cin galese divers and Fiji islanders for the swimming races of the next Olympiad. It usually takes many times as long to erect a building as It does to pick out its site. This being the case, Lamed will have to wait many moons yet before the new state hospital is actually established in its midst. Nearly two years have been "consumed In finally designating Larned as the home for this institution. "No good will come," said Colonel Roosevelt recently in discussing the plans and purposes of his new party "if we merely substitute one set" of bosses for another.". This being, true, why doesn't he ditch Bill Flinrr ot Pittsburg, Pa.? Even a few. of the colonel's followers find it particularly distasteful to stomach Bill Flinn. Colonel Roosevelt delivered a lengthy Speech, the other night in which he told why he is leading and forming a new party, when a few words would have turned the trick very nicely. The col onel is leading and forming a new party with the hopes of gratifying his ambition to be president of the United States for a third term, and one or two more, perhaps. THE RIGHT WAY. In New Jersey and in Michigan the Republican insurgents, who are fol lowers of Theodore' Roosevelt, have decided to break away entirely from the old Republican party. They are going to put state tickets of their own in the field. They are going to name independent sets of presidential elec tors favorable to their champion. They are going to send something that savors of regular delegations to the convention of Mr. Roosevelt's new party. The present indications are that their brethren in Illinois, New York and many other states will do likewise. And these insurgents are entitled to the admiration of all men for their courage and their honesty of purpose. They assuredly have a right to affiliate with any political movement they please, or to assist to the best of their endeavors in the promotion of a new political party which may come nearer representing their political Ideals. And this is the action that should have been taken by the Republican in surgents in Kansas. Instead, they have become political brigands and are now attempting to annex bodily the Republican organization in this state to the new Roosevelt party. Some of the more simple-minded among them are actually Insisting that the decision of the supreme court the other day in the "Roosevelt electors' case" is no less than an en dorsement of the stand they have taken. A child reading that decision would be able to understand that it means nothing of the sort. The court In no way passed on the merits of the dispute between the Roosevelt and Taft supporters in this state. It stated concisely and clearly that the matter was in no sense a legal one. In other words, there is no law in Kansas that in any way touches the contingency in the premises. For this reason the supreme court dismissed the proceedings. The effect of this decision undoubtedly is that the can didates for presidential electors who have so unrighteously determined to vote in the electoral college, if they get there, for Theodore Roosevelt while they will run on the regular Republican ticket headed by Taft and Sherman, will have a place on the primary ballots In the Republican col umn. But in no sense is the decision of the supreme court which will per mit this an endorsement of the stand that these proposed electors have tak en. That is purely a political ques tion concerning the right of which there is no Kansas law to determine, or so the supreme court held. And that Is all the decision of the su preme court amounted to. These electors may have a legal right to the places on the primary ballots which they will occupy, be cause there doesn't happen to be a Kansas law to cover this case, but there is nothing of moral righteous- j ness to their stand. It Is untenable according to the simplest ethics of political fair dealing. It is reason able that there should be contests at the Kansas primaries for the places of electors on the Republican ballot in this state this fall. But to turn such a contest into one that will de termine who these electors will vote for in the electoral college among the presidential candidates, who ob tain a standing before that body, is a political trick that should have no standing with honest-minded men. Nor is it likely that It ever would have been conceived were It not for the fact that some of the Roosevelt leaders in Kansas have long been can didates for higher political prefer ment. They recognize the power of the prestige of the regular Republi can party in Kansas. They know that their ambitions would be hopelessly blighted if they could not campaign and r-in for office as Republicans. Were they fighting for the principles of the new Roosevelt party and not for their own political advancement, they would be doing today Just as their confreres In New Jersey, Michi gan and other states are doing. They would organize an honest branch of the new party in Kansas. That is the only right way for the Roosevelt supporters in Kansas or any other state to proceed. PORTUGAL'S TROUBLES. The Portuguese government is forced to admit that northern Portu gal has many royalists in arms. Some of the rebel bands are large and in creasing rapidly in size and strength. Good authorities estimate the senti ment of that part of- the country at nine-tenths monarchical, not so much from any love of kings as on account of the extreme unpopularity of the present government. In the vicinity of Lisbon, where the existing government is most thorough ly entrenched, there have been small risings against the republic and in the capital itself outbreaks of hostility to the rulers of the country are frequent- All of the conditions Indicate that real civil war is on, instead of mere local disturbances. It is all as natural as it is unfair. No government could make Portugal prosperous and reasonably free "from debt and extreme poverty. But with out such changes for the better the country can never be content under any administration. It is a situation perfectly adapted to fomenting revolts and keeping the government insecure and greatly hampered in trying to bring about better conditions for the masses. If the monarchists could overthrow the republic they would never be able to satisfy the demands of the peo ple. If they were to restore the king- dom they could not Keep it from fall ing again, before long, under the weight of public condemnation for failing to do what is beyond the power of any rulers of a country des perately Involved in debt and desper ately poor. JOURNAL entries Too many of the compliments that are passed out are insincere. With her summer finery on, every girl is pretty at a distance. M, Jfc And it is often the case that a tall man is financially short. Many a thing that is easily remem bered would be gladly forgotten. Tell a man he mustn't do this or that and he'll proceed to snow you that he can. The Sunflower state is good enough to bring up old memories, says the Newton Kansan-Republican, but for un-to-date. nractlcal business pur poses, the Alfalfa state would sound better. A contemiiorary bewails the fact that model husbands and model wives rarely live together, remarks the Leavenworth Times, ana it aflds: sui how would the world know they were model if they did? And the observing Tom Thompson of the Howard Courant also has this to sav: Thev are wearing wonderfully thin, transparent hose this year. You can see the freckles ana cnigger Dues right through them. Attention is called by the Ottawa Republican to the fact that "there is nothing to prevent England or any other foreign country from going round the Horn, as of yore. If they don't like our Panama canal regula tions. Douglas county has Just completed a beautiful home for the poor, notes the Wichita Beacon, and it continues: It is one of the handsomest in the state. Douglas county's next problem will be to find enough poor to keep it full. A political observation from Clyde Knox: "Whenever a man goes to running over the country in behalf of any Great Cause, you can very safely bet all your money that sooner or later he will bob up as a candidate for some public office." The enforcement of the prohibitory law has become so stringent In Chetopa, reports the Parsons Sun, that the citizens have found it neces sary to install a public drinking foun tain by public subscription. The peo ple of that town just have to have something to drink. Perusal of the Western Kansas ex changes confirms the report that the parasites that live off the earnings or the harvesters are flourishing right now. The bootlegger, the tin horn gambler and the ordinary hold up men all seem to be trying to get a share of the easy money but the courts are making it rather difficult for them to operate. Sallna journal. Reported by the America'' City cor respondent of the Soldier Clipper: We have a good man. in our community that claims he was tempted by his satanic majesty three times in 2i hours. The first was to take part in an Ice cream supper, the second an invitation to subscribe for a dally news paper, and thirdly to purchase two tickets to the Chautauqua. GLOBE SIGHTS BY THE ATCHISON GLOBE. A political fence reduires more new pickets than the other kind. A sporting editor has a hard time In toe winter when there is no work to do.

QUAKER MEDITATIONS. rFrom the Philadelphia Record.! It takes two to make a bargain, but only one gets the benefit of it. Charity may begin at home, but it is frequently out when anybody calls. Some people wear mighty long faces when they preach eternal happiness. The world Is always eager to give a man a boost when he gets close to the top. The one place where duty always comes before pleasure is in the dictionary. Feww things are perfect. Even the longest way 'round has its shortcomings. It's a poor rule that won't work both ways, but drinking to a man's health Isn't going to improve your own. The weakest sometimes carry around the biggest opinions of themselves. It Is quite possible for a fellow to be constantly broke without shattering any traditions. The police sometimes have to do some thing more than say "Shut up" to the proprietor of the gambling house. Wigwag "I hear you have been buying suburban property at Bwamphurst. How deep is your lot?" GoodtMasjL "About two feet at high tide." Blobbs "She seems quite a parados. Her manner is at once cold ana effer vescent." Slobbs "That may be ex plained by her Inordinate appetite for ice cream soda." REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR. From the New York Press.) AH a careful wife can save for a man he can give himself credit for. The quicker a girl can fall in love with a man the quicker he can get over It. If a man had all the money in the world, he could worry most about what his taxes were going to be. The queerest thing is how, when it's an even shot to guess light, aa against wrong, nobody can ever do it. JAYHAWKER JOTS SY THE WAY BT HARTS PABOM.

Unfor tunately, a good many people. are like beggars proud of their sores. They grow to love their ills and woes and wouldn't know how to live without them. It is a joy to exhibit them to the disgust of healthy-minded folk. and a bit of sympathy extended upon the impulse of the moment means only another indecent exposure of fester ing morbidity. Most of our troubles are purely Imaginary. They grow with the telling and gloom clouds spread a3 the amentations arise. We foster and pet them for the sympathy they bring us when decisive action would put them out of the way for all time. We cuddle our woes when we should manhandle them. And long after the original grievance has died a natural death we cherish the mem ory of it and are morbidly happy In sorrow. The most beautiful thing In this beautiful world is sympathy, but it isn't to be dispensed upon every oc casion. A stinging word, a good, swift kick, religiously aimed and with the power of a six-cylinder convic tion behind It, are a heap more ef fective at times. The woe peddler, the beggar for sympathy who exhibits his sores, has no more rights than a thief, and ir justice were done he would be in Jail at hard labor. He Is his own worst enemy, to say nothing of being an enemy of society, and it's the heroic fluty of men with untainted mentali ties to soak him now and then for the good of his soul and his neighbor's.

And found Bill Taft most cleverly Upon the links at play. "Forgive me for intruding; Your pardon. Bill, I crave." Said I, "but I've been brooding O'er a matter very grave For some three weeks; I'm hearing You've said it is no use. Pray tell me, are you fearing Thwe Donkey or the Moose?" Thereat Bill chuckled gaily. "Young man, pray brood no more; In strength I'm gaining daily. Dost hear that far-off roar? It is the Bull Moose grieving Down there at Oyster Bay That all its friends are leaving To Join me in the fray. Poor Moose! its deathknell's ringing. Its life Ted cannot save. Sweet flowers he'll soon be bringing To strew upon Its grave. "The Donkey, loudly braying. No terrors has for me. Some day, with golf-stick playing, I'll heave him out to sea.

It was far too hazardous. But Don was taking it very calmly. He re garded her with unblinking eyes from his perch on the veranda rail. "But we stay engaged?" "Oh, yes," Suzanne assented, cheer fully. "I don't mind, do you? It's only to to test our feelings, Don. Don't you understand? I'm going with the Janeways for a week, and you may stay here and fish or sail; do just what you like." "So generous of you," murmured Don. "Why not? I want you to be hap py." "Yes, you do You know I can't be happy without you." "We don't know for sure, yet." Su zanne was very firm, but gentle. She felt sorry for Don, but when it came to a serious question like this, she felt it far better to put it to the test. "It isn't as if we were breaking the en gagement, Don, dear. It's just a sort of a furlough, don't you see? We'll keep It a secret, and both be free to do as we please." "Which means you'll trot all over Tressac Island with Carl Janeway." "You are at perfect liberty to do the same with any girl here." "But that's the rub. Sue. You know I don't give a rap about any other girl here, and you want a chance to try out Janeway." Suzanne pursed her pretty lips re provingly. "Sometimes you seem like a big, overgrown cub, Don; you do, really. Mr. Janeway Is a perfect stranger to me "Blanche has been writing to vou for a month to come and meet her brother. Don't I know?" "Well I'm going," smiled Suzanne. "And you may do just what you please about it." "May I?" Don asked grimly, with a swift side glance at her. I'll remind you of that when you come back." "Don't be too rash, or maybe I won't come back." "Ah, Sue. don't say that?" But Suzanne merely laughed, and rose from the deep arm chair. She knew perfectly well how charming she was, and how she held Don Hamilton's heart on her own pink palm. And the very surety had begun to bore her. It had been unfortunate, their falling in love so soon, at the beginning of the summer season, and now at early fall, It seemed an old story. Blanche had succeeded in arousing her curiosity over her wonderful ex plorer brother. Don had never ex plored any unknown territory except her own heart. She would bo dr.wn to Tressac Island and see this celebrity, and without Don. And she went. The whole island was owned by the Janeways. It lay like a beautiful green emerald far out in the lake. After the excitement and restless life at the seashore resort Suzanne found it folding a spell of enchantment about her, the peace and dreamy langor that hung over the entire place. It was the fifth day. She had writ ten one letter to Don one only. Was not love on a furlousrh? And not a word had she heard in reply. It was queer or uon to act that way. He had no perspective on life, she told herself. Carl Janeway was keen on perspec tives. "We can never hold the reality in our grasp, try as we will," he told her. "Do we not ever reach for the dream "I suppose we do," Suzanne assent ed, faintly, but she remembered un easily how tangible had been the realization of Don's dream. She did not meet Janeway's glance. Thev were just landing after the dally sun set canoe trip. She watched him now, as he lifted the canoe as easily as an Indian guide. He was like an Indian, too, in his tall, lithe build, black hair, and odd, dark eyes that never seemed to close. Blanche had said he was interesting.. Suzanne found him more than that- Vaguely, he fascinated her. She loved to sit in the canoe, gathering water lilies on a lake that had turned to gold and amethyst and ruby red under the sun set splendor, listening to hie tales of a world-wide quest. That was what he called it, a quest after fortune. Blanche had taken pains to tell her he had found It. "When are you leaving Tressac, Gray Eyes?" he asked suddenly. "Saturday." She waited while he hid the canoe under the trees. It was twilight now. A faint breeze stole over the Hake, per fume laden. Up at the lodge they were lighting the long Chinese lan terns around the porch. And sud denly without warning, Janeway's arms closed about her. "But you will not go not now. You know the same as I do that this is the end of the quest." Swiftly, recklessly, Suzanne's palm struck out and cuffed the famous ex plorer's nearest ear even while she evaded his lips. And then, picking up her skirt, she ran straight for the shelter of the lantern's glow. "I'm going home tomorrow, Blanche," she exclaimed, finding her hostess alone there. "Oh, so soon, dear; why? Here's a letter for you, anyway. From the shore, too!" Suzanne read it through oncJ, twice. Every word sank deep into her consciousness. It was from Don. "I think you had better stay longer. I am going up to Canada with the Wheatons in their car. The day you left I took a wrong header in driving and struck my shoulder. Lucky it wasn't the neck, eh? Have been laid up ever since. Head grazed a rock, too." "Blanche, Z am going now. tonight. Don's badly hurt. I'm sorry, but I must go." "Don?" Then Suzanne raised her head and for the first time publicly announced her engagement. Back there under the pines; when another man's arms had closed about her, she had found out what Don Hamilton's love meant to her. "So you see I must go," she added, hurriedly. "Aunt Isabel is there at the hotel, but he will want me. And and I don't want him to try to go on this motor trip." "But I thought you liked Carl, dear?" "Did you Suzanne laid her arms around the other girl's shoulders. "Blanche, you know what funny peo ple we women are, don't you? I didn't know until tonight which one I cared for, but now I do, and I want to get back to Don Just as soon as the boat will take me." "There's a train at 8:18 and you can catch the ferry over in fifteen min utes. Don't talk. Sue, just rush. 1 know how you feel." Don Hamilton opened his eyes widely at the vision that stood by his hammock beside Aunt Isabel's portly one. It was Suzanne, a long motoring cloak thrown back, showing her still in her brown khaki suit. "Don't hug him too hard, child. He's all bandaged." protested Aunt Isabel, but Don did not mind the pain. He only heard her voice in his ear. (Copyrighted 1912 by Associated Lit erary Press.) EVENING CHAT BT ROTH CAJOSBOX. a maid was once sent out from an em ployment bureau to a position, and on finding that the room in which she was expected to live was a wretched little hole, miserably furnished, with no paper on the wall, no arrangements for heating and one tiny window, told the lady of the hosue that she did not wish to stay, be cause she felt she could never make that room look homelike. Whereupon she departed. And now the lady of the house goes about telling thki experience as an illustration of how abnominably presumptuous and uppish housework girls are becoming. And al most everywhere she tells it she receives sympathy. "The idea," exclaim her friends, "The idea. You simply can't do anything with them nowadays, they are so independent. Wouldn't stay because she couldn't make the room look home like. What do they expect guest cham bers?" My friends. It seems to me that in that little incident is Illustrated one of the c ef causes of the maid problem. That a housework girl should want to have her room look homelike and should refuse to stay in a place where she couldn't make it so, seemed the acme of absurdity to these good women. They re garded it as unwarrantable independence on her part. And yet a maid's bedroom means much more to her than her mistress' chamber does to the mistress, for the maid's bed room must also be her living room. If these women, who were most of them kind hearted in other relations of lit, had thought of the maid who wanted a homelike room as a human being like themselves, they wouldn't have seen any thing extraordinary in her demands. But tey were so in the habit of looking upon her as a distinct species of animal life the genus maid, that they didn't think of applying to her the test of similar desires and needs. There was a little story in the Joke col umns of one of the magazines the other day, which, to my mind, came almost as near pathos as humor. It ran something like this. A maid has asked leave to go home to her mother who is very ill. The mistress says she may go, only she mustn't stay long as she is much needed. At the end of a week the maid writes something to this effect: "Dear Mrs. I will be back real soon, and please keep my place for me. Mother is dying as fast as she can." Probably that never happened, but it maids would assume the attitude many mistresses try to thrust upon them it cer tainly could have come to pass. Undoubtedly there is fault on both sides in the servant problem. Undoubtedly maids are often trying. Incompetent, un trustworthy, and a thousand other things. But I don t believe that anything can ex cuse mistresses from this unfeeling and unintelligent attitude towards the maid as a creature instead of a human being. When mistresses cease to assume this attitude, and get the thought that their maids really are women with natural de sires for happiness and homelike rooms and appreciation and pretty clothes, per haps girls will not consider housework tne most degrading of occupations and wi'I not prefer to it the most exhausting and ill-paid work in shop or ractory. Fast Travel in Germany. The speed of German passenger trains, even of the express trains, Is not usually remarkable. The so called "Schnellzuege" and "Eilzuege" ("fast" trains and "hurry" trains), for the first of which an extra charge is made, are both ordinarily deliberate in their movements, and accommoda tion trains and "locals" often spend much time between stations, usually iu sight of each other. However, German trains usually run on schedule time. The new summer time-table for the German state rail way systems, just issued, shows some advances in speed, principally, of course, for through trains. The fast est train in Germany is the so-called "D-Zug 20" between Berlin and Ham burg, which maintains an average speed of 65.177 miles per hour. This throws into second place the express from Munich to Nuremberg (leaving Munich at 8:15 a. m.) which here tofore has been the fastest train in Germany, with an average speed of 54.991 miles per hour. In the third place is an express train from Berlin to Halle with an average speed of 54.929 miles per hour, and the fourth place is held by the express from Freiburg to Appenweier, in Baden, with an average speed of 52.941 miles per hour. The best German trains frequently cover long distances without stop and at high rate of speed. The record In this particular Is held by the Munich Berlin express for the run between Nuremberg and Halle, a distance of 195.11 miles, which is covered with out stop at an average speed of 43.19 miles per hour, in spite of the heavy grades in crossing the Thuringlan Mountains. Other long runs without stop are Berlin to Hamburg, 178.83 miles, at an average speed of 66.18 miles per hour; Munich to Wurzburg, 172.12 miles, at 60.33 miles per hour; Berlin to Hanover, 157,83 miles, at 50.39 miles per hour; Schneidemuehl to Berlin, 153.48 miles, at 50.46 miles per hour, and Breslau to Frankfort on the Oder, 164.10 miles, at 60.77 miles per hour. The fastest long-distance trains in Germany are the Berlin-Hanover-Dortmund express, which covers 292.04 miles with but three stops at an average speed of 60.62 miles per hour; the Oderberg-Breslau-Berlin ex press, 316.90 miles with four stops, at 60.14 miles per hour; the Berlin Konigsberg express, 366.61 miles with three stops, 4 9.70 miles per hour; the J Munich-Berlin express, 419.4Z miles with two stops, at 48.78 miles per hour; the Berlin-Frankfort on the Main express. 334.92 miles with five stops, at 48.50 miles per hour; the Munich-Wurzburg-Frankfort on the Main express. 256 miles with four stops, at 44.93 miles per hour.

Which isn't so strange whn one considers that kicking was one of the certain inalienable rights our am bitious ancestors fought for, when they first twisted the ttail of the British lion. But a close observer of federal statistics and the passing throng can still find couse for gratifltude. Last year, for instance, the people of thla country purchased a matter of thirty nine million dollars' worth of diamonds and other precious stones, not to men tion some that may have been smug gled is as rock candy or tooth filling. Then those wishing to point with prido might consider the automobile indus try. The American factories are the greatest in the world, but even with in creased capacity, they are unable o supply the demand, and many who hes itated are forced to go about with the price of a 1912 model burning holes in their pockets, while they rely upon street cars and the family horse. Some may have mortgaged their homes for the price, to be sure, but most of them are better managers.

METHOD IN WOMAN'S WORK. There is so much tommyrot talked about woman's mission and the need Z Pr?Paro her for it that sane minds shudder every time a grave and rever 8es to exPlain. Thus Drt Luther H. Gulick of the fiage Foundation, in a recent paper says: "The deepest need of woman Is the need of being needed." Fine! And from that text one could preach many things. But the real truth is that woman's mission today is Just the same as it has been from time Immemorial. The only thing that has changed is environment of work. When the home moved from the farm to the city, and then from the house to the flat, woman had to adjust her domestic methods to the new manner of living. And when the dye vat and the loom were taken from the home to the factory woman had to alter her methods of productive work. And once again when the sales counter was removed from the front living room to the rented store, and. again, the small store to the depart ment store, woman once again altered her whole method of commerce, both as vendor and buyer. And glory be to woman! She adjusted herself to the new demands of life with a courage and accuracy that is unexampled in the history of the world. A few thous and years from now, when the learned historians tell of the revolution in the lives of women brought about by the hundred years between 1800 and 1900 thev will not talk need of being needed. They will tell of the marvelous step that woman took in luiiowing ner worn rrom the home to thn fantn-f-v an4 thn .a 1 cwiu 11UW, with mathematical precision, she fitted .iioen wunuui any russ ana leathers into the niche where she was most felt.

Sixty thousand building- trades workmen in Chicago arranged to stop work for five minutes today out of respect to the memory of Martin B. Madden, who has been a labor leader among local unions for more than ten years. The men will cease work for the time during the hour funeral services are being held at St. Malachy's church. Union leaders said last night that employers consented willingly to the request. Although the loss in time will aggregate several thousand dol lars, the contractors, according to the labor leaders, did not refer to this question. It is said to be the first time that such a tribute was ever extended to a local union official. Even body read the State Journal. ABOUT ROBERTSON. Senator From Rawlins Making Great Raos for Attorney General. Senator Fred Robertson, of Rawlins and an even dozen other counties, is running like a frightened coyote in his race for the Democratic nomination for attorney sreneral. Robertson is solid in his own district, although his district has a natural Republican majority and his progress in other sections of the state is more tnan encouragms n. Is almost sufficient grounds for a wager. Up to the time when Fred Robert son came to the state senate, he. had a wider acquaintance among the jurists of Denver, Chicago, Omaha and other western cities than ho had in some parts of Kansas. As a lawyer, his reputation has been established for a long time, but as a politician he was unknown until all the Demoorats and a large per cent of the Republicans of his district sent him to the Kansas senate. His level headed and effective work in the senate -left, him .stronger with the Democrats, and with both fac tions of the badly divided Republicans satisfied with his fairness. At present a large number of Republicans of both factions are supporting him some un der cover and others in the open. The grim suspicion that it is a Democrat year may have something to do with Robertson is getting favor able notices in a majority of the Re publican papers, as well in the Demo, cratic publications.

There is deep sorrow In the heart of J. N. Harrison, department comman der of Kansas, who has worked fot weeks to secure reduced rates to the national encampment in Los Angeles only to be rather coldly informed that the rates this year will be higher than ever before. In the face of the high rates to the 1912 encampment Col. Har rison bitterly refers to the railroad's concessions to the bull fight and prize fight promoters and to the ex-confederate meetings. In a circular mailed today to several thousand Kansas veterans, plans for the encampment are outlined and the Kansas bronze button wearers are urged to attend the meeting. The Kan sas delegation will leave on No. 1 over the Santa Re, September 6, and will arrive in Las Angeles Sunday morning September 8. Headquarters in the Cal ifornia city will be at the Hotel Balti more. Then Col Harrison in black type refers to the bitterness of his defeat in the fight for reduced rates to the coast. Regarding the rate question, tne department commander says: "Comrades, it is with a heavy heart that our commander is compelled to say that while he has put forth every effort and has tried in every way and manner to get some kind of a conces sion in rates or dates of sale, it has all been to no purpose whatever. The rate of J 55 is a higher rate than has keen in effect for years for summer tourists to the coast. It is only $5 less Than regular rate now, and the last day of sale in Kansas is September 5, which will put you into Los Angeles two days before first meeting of the encampment, and the $5 saved on rate you will be compelled to disgorge at the other end of the line for hotel bills while waiting for the encampment to begin. I have tried to have date of sale extended to include 6th and' 7th of September, but have been coldly turned down, without sense, reason or explanation. I have asked why should the rate to the coast be raised this particular year of our Lord 1912. I have asked why our ex-Confederate brothers should be given a rate of one cent a mile to their reunion and the Grand Army of the Republic be charged double to their reunion. "I have asked why the railroads should make a ridiculously low rate to a bull fight in Texas and raise the rate on the Grand Army in Kansas? "I have asked why tfce railroads should encourage prize fights in Mex ico with a low rate and run up the rate on the grizzled old veterans that made it possible for the railroads to exist? "I have asked why the Grand Army of the Republic should not be placed "on a rate of equality with bull fighters, prize fighters, thugs, and ex-Confederates, and I still ask why? Perhaps they have mistaken the old bugle call of reveille for lights out. and rally on the battalion for retreat." This is one of the few occasions of of record when the railroads hav ar bitrarily refused to grant concessions to the old soldiers and the things which will probably be said about the public service corporations at the Los Angeles encampmten, will be one of the fea tures of the meeting.

Wireless messages will be sent across the Atlantic and to other parts of the world by a new system, ac cording to experts, within four months, not only much faster than by the present systems but also with such precision that it will be posslDle to send pictures by this means. The new system has been taken up by one of the big European telegraph com panies and will be given a thorough te3t by a syndicate. Stations are to be erect ed at Lyons in France and at Washing ton and the Inventor claims that he will be able to send at the rate of 200 words a minute. The improvement consists in being able to control a continuous wave as com pared with intermittent waves by the present system. Aftr the Franco-American line is work ing the company Intends to extend the system to the east to Africa and to the British colonies. The British govern ment has Investigated It but is apparent ly satisfied, as it has been in all recent inventions, to let some other nation test it before adopting it In the British Isles. OPPOSES-THE RECALL Mr. Justice Burch Reads Paper on Constitution and Courts. Colorado Springs, July 25. Arguments against the principle of the recall of Judges and judicial decisions were pre sented to the convention of the Commer cial Law League of America by Judge Rousseau A. Burch, associate justice of the supreme court of Kansas, who read an exhaustive paper on "The Constitution and the Courts." Judge Burch dwelt at length on debates and proceedings of the constitutional con vention which) in 1885 framed the consti tution of the commonwealth of Australia on the basis of the American and British constitutions and rejected the proposal t embody clauses for the recall of Judges and judicial decisions.

Isaiah Hale of Topeka on Mis sionary Tour in West. SANTA FE THE SAFEST ROAD New Motto Adopted by Em ployees of Koad. Other Items of Interest in the Traffic World. Albuaueroue. July 25. "Santa Fe, Safety First," Is the new motto adopted by the Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe railway system, which created a de partment of safety, of which Isaiah Hale, of Topeka Is the commissioner of safety. Mr. Hale Is In Alburquerque, coming here on his first trip over the western lines, during which he Is perfecting the organization of safety committees at every division point on the Santa Fe. The committees will consist of a di vision safety committee, composed of the division superintendent or train master, the division engineer, the gen eral foreman of the bridge and building department, one engineman, one train man, one yardman and one agent, ana a shop safety committee, composed of tho master mechanic, the general fore man of the motive department, the general foreman of the car department, one machinist, one boilermaker, one blacksmith, one painter and one car re pairer. "It takes less time to prevent an accident than it does to make a re port on one," said Commissioner Hale last evening in an interview. "Statis tics show that 90 per cent of the ac cidents on railroads are avoidable and that these are caused by carelessness, either by employees or on the part of the traveling public. The Santa Fe proposes to make every man on Its sys tem a member of the bureau of safety, which It has established. In this way It hopes to reduce to the minimum ac cidents of every kind and to make the Santa Fe the safest railroad in the country. "Sixteen months ago the Chicago Northwestern established a bureau of safety, which has resulted in reducing accidents in that time an even 5,000, of which number 140 lives have been sav ed. In other words, the 140 represents that number of employees on this road in the service today, who but for the safety habit inaugurated a little over a year ago, would be in their graves. I cite this instance Just as an illustra tion of what the safety habit has done, and what it will do for a great railway system. 'Santa Fe. Safety First Is a mot- which the road is going to adopt from now on. Hereafter the Santa Fe is not going to be known so much be cause it Is the fastest, the shortest or the cheapest line to travel from one end of the country to the other, but because it is the safest road," Mr. Hale is enthusiastic over the op portunities which the bureau, of which he Is the head," offers and proposes to carry out its objects with a view to the greatest possible success. BIG PIPE SHIPMENT. Special Train of Twenty-Five Cars to Los An sol ps for Waterworks. The first of a series of shipments of pipe, destined to be used in construct ing the new fifty million dollar water supply system -of the city of Los An geles, Cal., left Chicago July 20 on a special train of twenty-five cars over the Atchison, Topeka, Santa Fe railway, consigned by the Lynchburg Foundry company, of Lynchburg, Va., to the Los Angeles Water company. While this shipment occupies twenty five cars, each carload having a weight of at least 40,000 pounds, it s only a small amount of the pipe which will eventually be used, and there will be. many more shipments of a like nature. The shipment of this pipe points to the early completion of the gigantic project soon to be made an accomplished fact by the city of Los Angeles. The Los Angeles water supply sys tem when completed will be one of the greatest examples of engineering in the world. It will transmit pure water from the high Sierras a dis tance of 250 miles into the city. The aqueducts which will carry the water will pass across mountains and through the desert before they reach their final destination. WO SAVE DOLLAR A DAY. Rock Island Tells Employees How It Is Done. The "save a nickel a day" slogan sounded by several railroads regard ing care in expenses by. employees has been replaced by a new bit of in struction on the Rock Island Lines. The recent advice, given publicity in the Rock Island Employees' Maga zine, is to save a "dollar a day." The instruction is intended pri marily for enginemen, trainmen, yard men and others who handle freight is called to the fact that rough handling is responsible for 55 or 60 per cent of the damage' to freight cars which require repairs. Rough handling is also responsible for a large percentage of "damage to freight" claims, amounting to over a million dollars a year. The percent age for the cost of repairs, it is as serted, would be much higher, be cause cars damaged by rough usage are more expensive to repair than those which are damaged because of defective material or poor construc tion. In substantiation of this statement and to back up the appeal for savings the magazine quotes the following figures: 55 per cent, of SI, 756, 473 of the total amount expended for repairs In the year ending June, 1911, was caused by rough handling. There are in round numbers 5,000 employees who handle these cars. The repairs aver aged $351 per employee per annum, or nearly 11 a day. If each employee does his part toward accomplishing the saving mentioned it will assist greatly in cutting down an unnecessary expense. DENVER ROAD TO ERB. The Danger of Imitations. An Ohio druggist writes to The Practical Druggist," a prominent New York Drug Journal, as follows: "Please furnish formula for, Castoria- All the formulas I have worked with are either ineffective or disagreeable to administer." To this "The Practical Druggist" replies: "We do not supply formulas for proprietary articles. We couldn't if we wanted to. His experience with imitative formulas is not surprising, but just what is to be expected. When Castoria is wanted, why not supply the genuine. If you make a substitute, it is not fair or right to label it Castoria. We can give you all sorts of laxative preparations for Children, but not Castoria, and we think a mother who asks for Castoria would not feel kindly toward you if you gave her your own product under such a name." No mother with a spark of affection for her child will overlook the signa ture of Chas. H. Fletcher when buying Castoria.

SMALL GAIN IN JUNE EARNINGS More tTniformlty In Results From All Railroads. tMn naMitnva frr Tun. nf all United States railroads making week ly reports, according to the statement prepared by Dun's Revew, amount to $35,337,463, a gain of 3.9 per cent as compared with the earnings of the same roads for the corresponding month a year ago.

Portland, Ore., July 25. Again war has been declared between the Hill and Harriman interests in the west, and today Portland is the pivot of the conflict. Harriman Interests have just finished a $2,000,000 bridge across the Willamette river, and Hill is seeking Invasion along the east side of the river, and has demanded in vocation of the common user clause on the bridge crossing a navigable stream and therefore in government control. The commissioner of docks has given Hill interests permission to use the bridge, and the action has caused a bitter sore and the filing of a protest by the Harriman system, which has always controlled the rich territory in Willamette valley, which Hill would enter. President Toung of the Hill lines pointed out that the franchise under which the new steel bridge was erect ed provides. for its common use by all railroads on fair terms, and If the companies could not agree on such terms the matter was to be taken be- n I rffw it Mo- W In rt-40 Irm R is lioi liere It cool It .11 thofo an xne Br. 1 OCmS And while going there, you'll be very comforta-ole if you travel via Santa Fe.

THAT LABOR CASE i Street Railway Injunction Against Boycott on Trial. Ezra Day, Organizer, on Stand All Morning. The injunction case of the Topeka Railway company against Ezra Day, member of the Amalgamated Labor union, had its first hearing this morn ing. Day spent the morning in the witness box, and was caught napping several times by T. F. Doran, attorney for the railway. An injunction has been served against Day, who is charg ed with causing articles harmful to the railroad to be printed in the daily press. Judge A. W. Dana of the dis trict court is hearing the case, and Ed McKeever is attorney for the labor union. Day lives in Kansas City, has been connected with the railroads for eight years, tnd was ordered to To peka June 11 by the international president. Mr. Doran asked the amount of Day's salary. McKeever objected, but the objection was overruled, and it was ascertained that the man is earn ing $6 a day, no expenses paid. The attorney for the railway intends to prove that this salary is not earned. "What have you accomplished?" he demanded. "There have been from five to 25 fel lows trailing me ever since I've been In Topeka," answered the plaintiff in directly, "I haven't had a chance since I've been in town." "Have you been successful?" was the court inquiry. "Well," admitted the plaintiff. "I have made no organization." Pat ton Not a Heartless Man. He subsequently explained that he did not consider Albert Patton a heartless man, and that he had a deep-seated love for the laborers, but dared not talk to them- for fear of their dis charge. He then explained that he did not consider their work simply labor, but a profession just -as much as an attorney's. "Ah," responded Doran, "may I ask how long you studied your profession before you entered it?" Day- was obliged to admit that he had not studied it at all. Statistics taken in Pittsburg, where the union has an organization, were quoted. The scale of wages in that place is 25 cents per hour the first year, 26 cents per hour the next; they work nine hours. The employees of the Topeka railway receive from 20 cents to 23 cents per hour, and there is no time limit, "The men here get more than they do in Pittsburg," observed Mr. Doran. "That is not what we are contend ing," returned Day. "We are working for shorter hours." Doran produced a bundle of letters issued by Day about June 28, 1912, and scored an interesting point. Though Day had admitted he did not consider Mr. Patton a heartless man, the literature referred to the manager as a "heartless and domineering man." Day was obliged to concede that much of the literature and newspaper arti cles given out by him -were composed of "hot air." "The articte published July 12 de claring a 'general boycott, on the street railway company' was' intended to scare them," he said, emphatically. "It was not, however, intended to harm them." He swore that it was true that in case of strike the amalgamated com pany would furnish ten automobiles to be driven on the car routes by the men who were "locked out." The court adjourned for a few min utes at 11 o'clock. The decision may be reached tomorrow. CANNOT HAVE PARKS. Commissioners Refuse to Allow Po litical Meetings on Grass. The board of city commissioners stamped their feet on state politic when they refused '-'-is morning to al low Capper-for-governor political meet ings in the city parks. Representa tives of the Capper supporters in To peka asked permission to hold gather ings in Willow park on the West side The commissioners by an unanimous vote declared against it. The Capper supporters took up the matter with Commissioner Stotts Wed nesday and -the park head refused them the right to use the parks. Feel ing that Stotts was prejudiced the Capper men went before the commis sion. Even more firmly came the re fusal from that body. The commissioners decided that the public parks were no place for politi cal meetings. Metal Number Plate for Autos. A new motor car style of number plate will be adopted by the board of city commissioners. Instead of the leather numbers used by the old ad ministrations, Roy L. Bone, city com missioner, has submitted a metal plate with the number and "Topeka." The old style did not name the city. Commissioner Bone will use a sam ple number in a conference with the Topeka Motor Car League soon. If they approve it, all numbers sold at the city hall hereafter will come under the latest pattern. The leather number plate was the laughing stock of visiting motorists. An Industrial Census of Topeka. The Commercial club has undertaken to compile an industrial census of Topeka. Letters have been sent out to the various manufacturing establishments in the city asking for information regarding their capitalization, number of employees, etc Manufacturers are asked to answer the communications promptly as the Informa tion is desired as soon as possible. It will be of value to the committee that Is interested in the promotion of a factory assisting proposition. Also the club is frequently asked for reports on the in dustries of this city. Longren Flies at LaCrosse. A. K. Longren, the Topeka aviator, made two successful flights with his air craft Wednesday at the La Crosse fair. It was the first flying machine flight ever attempted in that part of the state and a large crowd saw the two exhibitions.

MR MRS. J. W. BUNNET. HEAR FROM HELEN Preacher Who Flayed Old Maids "Catied." Miss Gould Cites Her Own Work in Their Defense. Grand Junction, Col., July 25. Wher the Rev. Elmer V. Huffner, Just re signed as pastor of the First Chris tian church, delivered a sermon recent ly advocating the exile of old maids to a barren island, as waste human! ty, he anticipated local resentment possibly but hardly expected to find himself at issue when Miss Heler Gould of New Tork. In a letter he Just received Miss Gould declared that many preachers would be without work and without wives and homes were it not for old maids. Miss Gould's letter follows: "Glancing over a Denver paper J notice an item concerning your ser mon on 'Love, Courtship and Marriage.' "One part of which I especially no tice saying that all old bachelors and bachelor maids should be isolated on an island so they could not hinder the progress of civilization. I do not know why jou made this statement, but I feel that it is a great injustice to the bachelor maids of our country. There are, I admit, many man-haters in the world, but a great many bachelor maids are not living alone because they so choose, but because they have been unable to find a suitable com panion. "I must admit that I am speaking from the standpoint Of the bachelor maid. I feel that such people as my self are not hindering the progress of civilization, but advancing it. If I had found a suitable helpmate I might have spent my money in a different way, and a way which might not have done as much good as it has. "Please think this question over and before preaching on this subject again make up your mind that there is some good in living a single life." BEVERIDGE TO PRESIDE Will Be Temporary Chairman of Bull Moose Convention. Chicago. July 25. Former Senator A. J. Beveridge of Indiana has been chosen temporary chairman of the na tional convention of the progressives in Chicago, August 5. This announce ment was made today by Senator Joseph M. Dixon.

Roosevelt and Lieu tenant Governor Sum Gordon, of Min nesota and C. J. Knapp, a member oi the Minnesota legislature. "The progressives are in control oi the Republican party in Minnesota.' said Mr. Gordon. "Under the law it i necessary to run the names of Taft and Sherman with the regular Repub lican candidates for-, presidential elec tors. To meet- this condition the can didates already-chosn, almost all of whom are, RoosevelWmen -will resign and the .-me.. men. will -toe nominated by petition as -Progressive Republi cans." v Under this plan, "it was explained there will be two sets of Republican candidates for electors on the ballot, one of them running under the names of Taft and Sherman and one. under the names of the "Third party candi dates." THREE UNHAPPY. Tliese Wives Seek Divorce and Name Charges of .Cruelty. Three petitions asking for decrees of divorce were filed in the district court to day. The principal complaint in each case is extreme cruelty and neglect. A petition filed by Mayme Simmons, who seeks a separation from George Sim mons, states that George Simmons, tne defendant, has been guilty of extreme cruelty and gross neglect, and further has failed to provide for the plaintiff. The defendant, it is alleged, is a habitual drunkard and can not obtain employment for this reason. It is alleged farther by the plaintiff that she has been compelled to provide for and clothe herself for a period of several years, and recently pawned a watch and trunk to buy gro ceries and other necessities. The plaintiff asks for alimony and a division of prop erty. Mrs. C. Brubaker asks for J1.000 ali mony, suit money, attorney fees, and also applies for a restraining order to prevent H. Brubaker. the defendant, from dispos ing of property until a division of the same is made. Extreme cruelty and neg lect is charged. Bertie Withers also brings a plea of cruelty and neglect, asking a separation from Elipah Withers and that she be re stored her maiden name, and other relief the court may grant. Jobn Gilbert Was Acquitted. The police who raided the place of John Gilbert at 715 Jefferson street last Satur day and seized three wagon loads of beer cases, kegs and barrels, were unable to convince Judge N. B. Arnold that he was maintaining a nuisance of selling liquor. As a result Mr. Gilbert was discharged and his stock of wet goods and "empties-' will be returned to him. Officers who made the raid went on the witness stand and told about finding a number of filled and empty cases, kegs and barrels and a number of cases which were partially filled but his honor did not believe this to be sufficient evidence to convict and released him.

Several accidents have occurred in the past day or two, but fortunately they were not serious. The river is mainly sandbars at the present time. The stage is 4.9 feet The lowest point reached in recent years was 4.1 feet. This was a year so. Secretary E. C. Brownell, of the Cen tral Y. M. C.

One of the most exciting moving pic ture series that has been seen in Topeka for a long time is the picture that is being shown of a bull fight. It is in two reels. There are so many kids selling the Saturday Evening Post on the streets Thursday mornings that the paper has been nicknamed the "Thursday Morn- ng Pest."

An inquisitive reader asks the Stae Journal this question "Why is it that the Santa Fe employees want to go to Missouri for their annual picnic?" This is a question that is referred to the employees for an answer. The rain this morning has bright ened up the citv lawns. City water only keeps the blue grass alive rains make it grow. There are many front j yard agriculturists in Topeka who de clare that the city water kills blue grass. Much enthusiasm Is expressed by the toys of the city over the proposed mar- athon swimming race that is being planned to be held in the river about the middle of August. Scores of boys are now taking swimming lessons un der the direction of W. L. Driver. The friskiest attraction in Gage park is the new alligator, "John Pur cell." A crowd of Santa Fe men stood looking at the 'gator the other even ing and they commented on the fact that the animal had absorbed several of the instincts of its former masffer. The unsightly hedge which occupied the sidewalk at Mulvane and Hun- toon streets has been cut. Residents in that neighborhood who return from their summer vacations will have to ask the street car conductors where they live there is such a change in the scenery.

DUNAWAY. Deputy County Clerk Member of Marshall's Military Band The best qualified man for County Clerk cannot do all the work of the office single-handed. Inexperienced or incompetent deputies might hinder, and handicap the work of the whole office. The law provides for the appointment of deputies, but gives you no direct voice in their selection. However, to insure you that he is not betraying your confidence by promising" deputyships to political; ward heelers (white or black) in return for votes, Sam Zimmerman hereby announces that his re-election will carry with it the reappointment of the depu ties who have served you so acceptably in the past. As most candidates for office try to build up po litical machines by tacitly promising a deputyship in every ward in the city and every township in the county, Sam's announcement at this time is unusual, to say the least, and is a sufficient guarantee that he will not sacrifice the work of the office to insure his re-election. Not one of the deputies now in the office is a poli tician in any sense of the word. Not one of them was appointed for political purposes, but because his character, ability and disposition fitted him for the position. All are experienced clerks, and each has learned his particular part of the work under the personal direction of the present County Clerk. If you appreciate the services of a public official who has handled the affairs of his office on a busi ness basis rather than in accordance with political precedents, and who is willing to take you into his confidence and tell you beforehand what he pro poses to do in the matter of appointments Vote to M.siE SAM Z "TO MAM (Advertisement.)

A St. Joseph contractor was com plaining to Commissioner Stotts at the cit- hall today because the city com missioner did not favor his firm's pole for the East Fourth avenue great white way.

10 THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL JULY 25, 1912 SEVEN YEARS OF MISERY How Mrs. Bethune was Re stored to Health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta ble Compound. Sikeston, Mo. "For seven years I offered everything. I was in bed for I four or five days at s time every month, and so weak I could hardly walk. I had cramps, backache and headache, and was so nervous and weak that I dreaded to see anyone or 1 have anyone move in I the room. The doc- f:V" 1 tors gave me medi- those times, and said that I ought to have an operation. I would not listen to that, and when a friend of my husband's told him about Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg etable Compound and what it had done for his wife, I was willing to take it. Now I look the picture of health and feel like it, too. I can do all my own house work, work in the garden and entertain company and enjoy them, and can walk as far as any ordinary woman, any day in the week. I wish I could talk to every suffering woman and girl, and tell them what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done for me." Mrs. Dema Bethune, Sikeston, Mo. Remember, the remedy which did this was Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. f It has helped thousands of women who have been troubled with displacements, TO STOJE WHEAT Farmers, Organized, Will Wait Until Price Reaches $1. Thousands of Grain Tanks Be ing Built in Kansas. ONE FARMER LOSES BET His Crop, Averaging 28 Bush els, Results in Long Trip. Wheat Yield Better Than Ex pected This Year. Hutchinson, Kan., July 25. Farm ers In the wheat belt In Kansas are organizing to hold their wheat until the price reaches the dollar mare From a dozen or more towns in this section of the state comes this report and although" the threshiner season brings a lot of wheat into all the towns in the wheat country, dealers say it will not be long until the market boy cott, if put into effect, will affect local markets, There Isn't any joke about farmers organizing to hold crops in Kansas any more. They are already organ ized. Their organization, known as the Farmers' union. Is state wide and it is a live concern. The farmers are "hanging together." And they have decided that they will hold their wheat until the price reaches $1 per bushel. Of course there is a lot of wheat moving in Kansas just now. Prob ab!v half of the farmers have to dis pose of at least a portion of their crop to meet the operating expenses of the year. But when this wheat is moved something is eoing to happen that these men believe will send up the price sooner or later. Most of the room and are financially able to hold inflammation, ulceration, tumors, irreg-! their crop for the price they want i l uv, v,-' This has been fixed at 1 per bushel. Thousands of grain tanks are bein? ularities. periodic pains, backache, that bearing down feeling, indigestion, and erected in Kansas now.

Could Not Put Them in Water, Cuticura Soap and Ointment Cured. St. Clair. Mo. "My trouble began about fifteen years ago. It was what some claimed eczema. The form the disease worked under was a breaking out wltn watery blisters on my hands which would then dry and scale, and then would follow the trouble of cracking and bleeding, also itching and hurting. My hands were disfigured at the time, and sore. The trouble was very annoying, and disturbed my sleep. This last February it was ever so much worse than before. I did not do all my work on account of the condition of my hands. 1 could not put them in water without mak ing them worse. I tried a lot of home remedies, also salves and liniments that claimed to be a cure for the trouble, but I did not obtain a cure. "At last I saw the advertisement fop Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I sent for a sample. I thought they would cure, so I sent for a fifty-cent box of Cuticura Ointment and some Cuticura Soap. A doctor advised me to keep ahead with the Cuticura Soap and Ointment and they cured me completely. No trace of the trouble remains." (Signed) Mrs. Mary Taylor, Mar. 20. 1912.

It isn't often that the Kansas wheat crop is underestimated. Kansas farm ers have a habit of expecting the best because the soil has been good to them nniio vpur. however, is the ex ception. "Wheat which was not plowed under because the owner did not have time to do this work and seed the ground to another crop, made from 25 to 35 bushels to the acre. B. F. Stevens of McPherson is one of the several such farmers. He was taken sick before he had a chance to plow under his wheat and the crop result ing was better than the average yield. Dave "Wohlschegal, Harper county, sold his wheat as it was threshed. He marketed it for 39 cents a busriel and 280 acres brought him a check for $5,431. In many cases the wheat is so heavy that a full swath could not be carried by the binder elevator and the task of harvesting was made longer. Farmer lost Costly Bet. William H. Hold en, a farmer, bet a trip for his entire family to Calif or-; nla during the heated season that his crop would not be more than 28 bush els per acre. He is now in a position to lecture upon the evils of gambling. His crop was 36 bushels per acre and he raised enough wheat that the eight buehels more than he. Bmntejl .on will pay the expenses of the western trip He Teceived a check for 2 1.8 50 for his wheat crop. He chartered a car and ie Missouri Pacific is hauling the family to the cooler west Just now. liTOll FINE FOUNTAIN. Wamesco This Week Completed Con struction of Finest in Kansas. Wamego.

O'Neil, drowned in the Walnut river near this city. He had intended taking the evening train for the south, and before starting on his journey. went with a party of five strangers for a final swim. Alter he had been in tne water for a while he called to his com panions, saying: "Watch me dive as if I were in Lake Michigan." He never rose to the surface after this. His companions gave the alarm' and scores of men rushed to the river in automobiles. After a 45 minute search divers found the body. Two doctors and two ministers immediately set to work to revive the drowned man. After more than an hour's effort the men gave up the attempt. His body t holnir held here for his relatives. He appears to be about 24 years of age. He is th fourth person to meet death by drowning here recently. Wounded Kansan Dies. Chicago. Julv 2 5.

ATTELL-MTJRPHY FIGHT AUG. 3. Coffroth's Matcli Stands Despite Trou ble Between aoc ana numn. San Francisco. July 25. The Abe Attoll-Harlem Tommy Murphy twenty round bout will be staged at Promoter James W. Coffroth's Eightn ana how rrl Ktrnet arena. August 3. the date agreed upon between the fighters fol lowing the July 4 postponement, mis announcement was made by Promoter Coffroth last night following an hour's conference with Attell. Several days ago the former feather weight champion startled followers of the boxing game by declaring he had cast off his manager, Billy Nolan, and would not fulfill any engagements made by the veteran trainer-manager. At the conference Attell agreed to begin training for the fight today. Mur phy and his manager, Jim Buckley, ar rived here from the east several days ago, and the Harlem lad has been doing light work for the past couple of days, despite Attell's threat to call off the fight. The trouble between Attell and No lan, according to last night's develop ments, started three weeks ago in Coff roth's office. They had gone there to meet Buckley and Murphy to discuss the August 3 date. Attell was not sat isfied with Nolan's handling of the match, and it is said the presence of outsiders is all that prevented them from coming to blows. It is also said j they agreed at that time to part after the August 3 battle, Dut later ado ae quartz pebbles and boulders, gathered j cided to take matters into his own from various places in Pottawatomie and Wabaunsee counties. The fountain is built with three bas ins surmounted by four columns and a canopy top. Set above the third basin is a large bronze stork through whicr most of the water passes.

They say all the wise ginks that the many terrible beatings Battling Nelson received during his tempest uous ring career have driven him batty in the dome. This dope is all wrong. For instance. while we were swearing at that pester- ing guy humidity and the excessive heat of last week the Dane was com- i plaining of the cold. Just think, com- j plaining of the cold! That calls for a new book on the state of his mind. The Battler is now spending the cool days up in Winnipeg, Manitoba. "We have to wear overcoats every evening," writes Nelson, "and only a few weeks ago we had a flurry of snow. Can you imagine anything like that?" We can't. What's more we will not add to the agony by mentioning any thing more about weather he s enjoy ing. There's a limit to everything. Nelson also added that he will re turn home to Hegeswich to look after his property. Another sign of demen tia not. After he walks over the old farm and patches up the fences.
