A WIN F0R TAFT Republican Committee Votes for Taft Electors. Twenty Progressives Vote With Regulars. TO TAKE T. R. ELECTORS OFF And Put Them in the Independ ent Column. Dolley Re-Elected Chairman Without Opposition. By a vote of 40 to 37. the Republi can state central committer today adopted a resolution by Frank Price of Crawford county, urging che etsht Roosevelt electoral candidates named In the state wide primaries to with draw from the Republican ticket, take place In the Independent column and give way to the Taft electoral candi dates. It was a decided Taft victory and Progressive leaders in tha com mittee declared that the execution of the resolution meant the placing of a complete Third party ticket in Kansas this fall. Many Progressive chairmen of the committee voted with the laft forces In the belief that the passage of the resolution would promote har mony and insure a Republican victory in the coming election. Congressman R. R. Itees of the Fifth District, Progressive and for Peace. Chairman J. N. Dolley was re-elected for a third term as chairman of the state committee. olley had no Dop- joition. His election went with a cheer and harmony prevailed in the election of officers.

William Allen White, Apostle of the Dull Moose Creed. From his place at the speaker's ta ble, Chairman Dolley outlined the ef fect of the resolution. He character ized the document as the "box of fire works preserved to cause trouble at this time.', An effort was-'made to send the resolution to a special com mittee, but the Regulars cried long find loud for a record and an open showing of the sentiments and con victions of the men who had a voice in the meeting. Chairman Dolley lost his temper for a minute when speak ers Intimated that the chair was not inclined to conduct the fight openly. To these charges Dolley declared that he himself was ready to go on record and that the members of the commit tee should have the sort of vote they demanded. It was after Dolley had talked at length for party harmony, for a spirit of fellowship and a united fight for the entire state, congressional and county tickets, and after the contests had been concluded, that Price sprung his resolution. The proposition had been discussed through the hours of the night and at the early morning conferences of the leaders of the two factions. Taft men were confident they would win. Hourly Progressive chairmen signified an intent to yield ground in the interest of preserving the state ticket. They agreed to sur render the place at the head of the Republican state ticket rather tnan face an almost certain defeat in the face of the growing opposition to the Progressives created by tne Kansas Regulars. It was on this ground that the Taft and Roosevelt followers met today in the committee meeting ana it was this agreement that won for the Taft men the adoption of the re solution. "Mr. Chairman," said Price, wnen ne received an opening after the formal business of the morning, "I want to offer a resolution." Then Price read the resolution that meant the final turning point in the action of the committee. This was his resolution. The Price Resolution. "Be it resolved that this committee request the Roosevelt electors on the Republican ticket to withdraw from the ticket in the interests of party harmony and fairness and take their places on an Independent ticket; and that the (Continued on Page Two.)

MARTINJETS IT Marion Man Re-Elected Chair man by Democrats. Eastern Democrats In Control at Committee Session. THERE WAS A RESOLUTION It Was Directed Against R. R. Lawyers. But It Fell by Wayside and Harmony Reigned. Henderson Martin, of Marion, had the chairmanship election all tied up in a sack with the shippers tag attached and the freight bill prepaid, when the Dem ocratic state central committee met at the auditorium this noon. The candi dacy of H. L, Pepperill, of Concordia, expired this morning when National Committeeman Sapp gave up the fight and declared Martin the winner. The friends of Sam Graybill, of Hutchinson, attempted a snare this noon by present ing a resolution slapping Martin direct ly in the face but it was voted down and Martin was elected chairman with colors flying. The resolution that started the onlr" excitement of the Democratic central committee meeting was presented b Congressman Neeley. Neeley asked the committee to support a rule whijh j would not allow the chairman of the central committee to be an employee of a corporation. Henderson Martin is local attorney for the Santa Fe at Marion. The res olution was directed at him and the committeemen sat forward in their chairs anticipating a skirmish between the Martin supporters and his ene mies. The resolution was tabled by an overwhelming vote only a few no s sounding in the hall and the Martin forces carried the day. After this vote was forced down the throats of the Graybill Democrats it was apparent that the battle was lost. After his nomination Graybill stood before the committee and declined saying that the death of the anti corporation resolution sealed his fate. Then James Murphy of Russell, one of the leaders of the party coun cil and an ardent supporter of Martin, took charge of the meeting and ac cepted an election of Martin by ac clamation. In his speech of acceptance, Hen derson Martin made the real hit of the meeting by answering directly the corporation charges of his enemies. He stated that the Santa Fe at times paid him only $25 a year for his services at Marion. He challenged his opponents to say that he had not been a true Democrat, a. real believer in Progressivenesa and a hard worker for the interests of the party. Then he completed his talk with this statement: "Within a week I will render my contract wun tne santa e. His decision to abandon his corpora tion work drew the Democrats to their feet. For three minutes they yelled and cheered and clapped their hands for the re-elected chairman. With good feeling- on all sides the Balie Waggener, Candidate for State Senator, Wise and Able and Liked by Men of All Parties and Factions. -in fell N. Dolley State Chairman. Who Was Today Re-elected Third Time. state committee decided It couldn't exist without H. -1 Pepperill and he was re-elected secretary. FepperiU has been secretary for so many years that the party in this state can't get along without him. After this term he will have served the state central commit tee as secretary for 28 years. He was secretary before a number of the mem bers present today were born. An un usually large number of young Demo crats were there today to insert young blood into the party. Bill Sapp, national committeeman, followed the election with a plea for harmony and victory with an ener getic speech and he didn't take off his long Washington. D.' C, coat, despite the pleas of committee members from ali sections of the auditorium. After the Sapp talk the committee closed around the hearth and toasted their feet together. Jt was a love feast after that. The meeting ended with plans for collecting- campaign money, and combining efforts in the coming campaign and with a great big promise that Kansas would go Democratic this year. Never has Topeka seen such a hopeful gathering of Democrats the Auditor ium held several hundred confident and happy leaders today,' TO BOLT COMMITTEE. Fred Stanley Says Regulars Will Form Own Organization. That the' Regulars? vtected as chair men ot, the county Republican central committees, will form thfeir own or ganization and not abide by the dic tates of Chairman J. N. Dolley and the Progressives, was Intimated today by Fred ,E. Stanley, Republican na tional committeeman from Kansas. In the committee meeting- today, the Reg ulars win not oppose Dolley s re-elec tion. Stanley, however, will ask the Taft members to meet with him at the National hotel following the adjourn ment of the party council. Here the Regulars will organize for the coming- campaign. Stanley's decision came as a severe Jolt to the Progressives. The with drawal by Stanley of his forces in the committee will widen the breach between the two factions in the party. Men who have declared they would rurrender their personal views for the sake of harmony, will stand firm arid oppose every move of the Taft leaders. I will call the Taft supporters in the committee to meet with me at the Na tional hotel followinsr the adjournment or the party council," said Stanley today. Here we will talk over conditions ana the work in the campaign and organize for the campaigm. We will, have a reg ular and formal organization, but will not leave the committee meeting this morn ing nor oppose the re-election of Dolley. Counties in which a Progressive chairman has been named, will not be opposed and we will conduct our work with such men as we now have on the committee." This plan did not cheer the Progressives In the least. They will fight and fight hard, they declare, if Stanley attempts the organization of a second committee and bolts today's meeting. "I am willing to make a good many con cessions in the interest of harmony," said Earl Akers, Republican nominee for state treasurer and a tried and true Progres sive, "but if the Taft men will not abide by the decision of the state committee, then I am ready to give up and stand pt. Such action will set badly with every Pro gressive in the party council and nothing can be accomplished in the interest ot harmony if the Taft men bolt the com mittee meeting or organize a second com mittee to oppose the work of the regular ly elected chairman and his members on the committee."

WHAT THEY SAY Political Leaders Informally Discuss Situation. Men of Both Factions See a Crisis at Hand. DAN ANTHONY'S POSITION

He Will Quit Party Council if Taft Is Not Endorsed. A Score of Interriews From Men of Party Council. "There is no cause for trouble In the party council today," said Congressman D. R. Anthony, of the First district, "if the men who have a voice in the con ference will do the square thing. If these men endorse the Republican plat form and President Taft 'and his ad ministration, the Republican state ticket In Kansas will be saved. If they fail to do it even if they show their fear of ,dftt by failure to endorse either candldate the situation In the' stiite will be, very grave. If the council endorses Roosevelt, the entire state ticket will be lost to the Democrats by 60,000 majority. I am In favor of a harmonious meeting. By that I do not propose to sacrifice "ny of my prin ciples or convictions and If any effort Is made to override those convictions, I for one will walk out of the council and refuse to have any hand In the pro ceedings." Sheffield Ingalls, of Atchison, Repub lican candidate for lieutenant governor, is a Progressive of the most defined type. He is for the progressive prin ciples, for Roosevelt and for all of the reform measures that are proposed. As for the situation which faces the Re publican party in November, Ingalls has little to say. He believes there is yet a chance for harmony anu it is for harmony without the sacrifice of the Progressive principles that Ingalls pleads with the Regulars in the party. Senator Oscar Fagerberg, of Potta watomie county, is here to attend the organization of the state wide league to defeat the Progressive candidates. "Practically every Republican in Potta watomie county who voted for Curtis 1n the primaries," said Fagerberg, "will vcte for Judge Thompson in November and will oppose not only Governor Stubbs but the other Bull Moose candi dates as well. I think It Is safe to say that In my county, Thompson will get three votes to one for Stubbs unless there is some radical change In condi tions." "We will never quit fighting in Kan" gas," declared Fred E. Stanley. Repub- CContlnued on Page Six.) Good Crop Expected. Republic City, Kan., Aug. 27.

Withdraw RooseTelt Electors From Republican Column. Robert Stone of Shawnee county will call forth the test of strength in today's Republican party council when he offers a resolution instructing the state committee o withdraw from the Republican ticket the names of the eight Roosevelt electors and to substitute in their, places the names of the eight candidates in the primary favorable to Taft. As to their prob able action on this resolution, Pro gressive leaders were this morning noncommittal. By the Regulars it is claimed that there is a chance for the adoption of the resolution. For' the last 24 hours the Progress ives have been making concessions in the interests of. party harmony. They declare that they will go a long riis taacato bring aboui. gaod .will among the opposing factions in the party. Whether they will tto so far as to agree to withdraw the Roosevelt elec tors and concede their places to Taft, is quite another thing. It is a big con cession. Stone's resolution was prepared last night. Its passage would be of vital importance in the face of present con ditions. Not only would the resolution harmonize the two factions, but it would end the litigation in the courts ind the proceedings pending before the contest board. The adoption of such a resolution would be com mendably fair for the Progressives. The test of strength in the council this afternoon will come when the resolu tion is presented to the men who have a voice in the meeting. BREAKS HEAT RECORD1 Thermometer Plays With 100 Mark No Relief Near. All Kansas is sizzling and previous heat records for this date have been smashed by a long margin. At 2 o'clock this afternoon the thermome ter reading was 99 degrees, and the indications were that the mercury would not stop in its upward course until the 100 degree mark was passed bv several degrees. The previous high temperature mark for August 27 was 95 degrees in 1911. The maximum temperature In To peka Monday was 100 degrees, record ed late In the afternoon. In the cen tral counties of the state the mercury stood at 104 degrees. There is no relief In sight unless showers that are predicted for late to night or Wednesday bring cool breezes.

ON COLOR LINE A Fight Has Developed in American Bar Association. Three Negro Lawyers flare Been Admitted. EFFORT TO JURN THEM OUT Is Strongly Opposed by Attor ney General Wickersham. A Strong Sentiment Against the Recall of Judges. Milwaukee, Aug. 27. Whether negro lawyers hereafter are to be admitted as members was one of the subjects be fore the American Bar association which opened its thirty-fifth annual meeting here today. The question arose in a special report of the ex ecutive committee, declaring that "al though it had been the settled practice of the association to elect only white men as members,"- three, nepro mem- -bers including William H. Lewis, an assistant to the United States attor ney general' had been seated by the committee in ignorance of their race. The committee therefore rescinded Its action and, allowing; the men to remain qualified as nominees for membership, asked the entire association to vote on the question. Attorney General George W. Wick ersham announced he would make a strenuous fight against any attempt to unseat Mr. Lewis and the other negro lawyers, declaring the committee had no power after once seating the men to take away their memberships be cause of race distinction.' Mr. Wickersham said he was not here to advocate the admission of negro lawyers generally as, that ques tion was not involved. Many southern members, including Ernest T. Florence and Edgar H. Far rar of New Orleans, and George White lock and Jonn Hinkley of Baltimore, declare the support of the. committee's action was based entirely on a desire not to set a precedent for the admis sion of negro lawyers generally. Opposition to the recall of Judges to any legislation which will affect the present tenure of judges' offices is ex pressed in a special report prepared for presentation to the association. Frank B. Kellogg, of St. Paul, chairman of the committee which prepared the re port said investigation showed almost "every reputable attorney In the coun try was opposed to recall of judges." Seneca M. Taylor, St. Louts, brought from the national assembly of commis sioners on uniform state laws, a model bill to be offered for adoption by vari ous state legislatures which will pro hibit the marriage in other states of divorced persons who have been pro hibited from marrying in any one state.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL AUGUST 27, 1912 BRINGS JNOTHERS Col. Roosevelt Wants Parker and S her man Called To Testify in the Campaign Fund Inrestigation. Oyster Bay. Aug. 27.- Col. Roosevelt desires to brine the names of Alton B. Parker, Democratic nominee for the nresridencv in 1904. fjid James Sherman, vice president of the United States, into the inquiry into campaign contributions authorized yesterday by tne senate u the adoption of the Penrose resolu tion. He eaid today that he would place their names before the senate committee in bis letter to Senator Clapp. "I shall include in my letter to Sen ator ClaoD." the colonel said, "the let ter hieh I wrote to Judge Parker in 1904 and my letter to Jim Sherman on the Harriman contribution. I think they are pertinent to the inquiry and 1 want to seet them on the record." The letter to Judge Parker was in renlv to Judre Parker's charge that Roosevelt's 1904 campaign fund had been enriched "100,000 by a Standard Oil contribution." The letter to Sher man gave the Roosevelt version of the Harriman-Rooaevelt controversy over a contribution by the late E. H. Harri man of $260,000 to the 1904 campaign fund. Nor will Col. Roosevelt allow to go unchallenged the alleged assertion wf Philander C. Knox, that Col. Koose velt's letters of October 26 and 27, 1904 and his -telegram of October 29, 1904 to George B. Cortelyou ''were written for the record." "Mr. Knox may have heard me say These letters will put tne recoru ttraight," cr 'this v.ili establish a rec ord of my attitude;' but it is certain ly not to be inferred from this remark I don't say that I did make it, but I may have) that they were written solely for the record, 'rney were gen vine letters and expressed just what 1 wanted to express when I first heard f th rpnort that the Standard ui had contributed or wanted to contrib vto to my campaign." In Regard to Hearst. William Randolph Hearst's state meet in London Sunday finds Colonel Roosevelt still wondering, he said, what letters Mr. Hearst has to make public on the alleged Standard Oil campaign contributions. "If Mr. Hearst will let me know within a year or a year and a half of the date these letters were writ ten and to whom they were written,' Colonel Roosevelt said today, "I will make them public myself. Any one can readily appreciate how difficult it would be for me to go through my en tire correspondencj for a number of vears to find a letter in which I re ferred to this matter. It would be a tremendous undertaking. I do not think I ever wrote Mr. Sibley on this matter, although I may have done so I can't find any letter to him." Col. Roosevelt said he hoped to fin ish his letter to. Senator Clapp before he- departed at midnight tomorrow on his three day campaign trip through Vermont. He had been delayed he said, by his failure to receive a copy of John D. Archbold's testimony before the senate committee. This testimony he added had been mailed him and should reach him today. The letter will be made public by Col. Roosevelt probably at an hour shortly after it should be received by Senator Clapp. Judge Llndsey, of Denver, who con ferred last night with Col. Roosevelt, George W. Perkins and William H. Hotchkiss at Sagamore Hill, left for New Tork today. Col. Roosevelt said they had discussed proposed planks of the Progressive platform in New Tork state. gressive, supported the resolution, but in so doing he brought cheers from the Bull Moose followers. Papes declared It would line up the Taft forces, while the Progressives could well afford to go to the Independent column and show the people of Kansas who controlled the votes in November. Then Price again took a hand in the game and stated that the adoption .of the resolution would save Crawford for the Republi cans while its defeat would mean the less to the Democrats by 2,000. Means a Third Party William Allen White declared that the execution of the resolution meant the placing on an entire Third party ticket in the field in the November election. He expressed freely his re gret over the adoption of the resolu tion and admitted it was a defeat for tne Progressive leader in the state. 7 WA, Senator J. ii.

"X fear it will mean the placing of an entire Third- party ticket in the state from governor down, including the congressional candidates." Fred E. Stanley, Republican nation al committeeman, was wearing a broad smile when the vote was announced. "It's a great victory." said Stanley. "and means harmony in the state. It is the only salvation for the Repubil can ticket and improves our chances in the November election." Brown; C. W. Harvey. Butler. Alfred Hold, Clay; Fred Stuglss, Cloud: -A- A. Abrams, Cowley; E.

Morgan, the Ottawa Edi tor Who Has fought and Bled and Died for the Kansas Democracy More Times Than Anyone. It was after the reading of the reso lution that Dolley took a hand In the festivities and expressed his opinion i.f the resolution and advised the members of the committee concerning the effect of the document. "This is the real box of fireworks in this meeting," said Dolley, "and it fchould be approached and handled with a good deal of caution. If this committee names the Taft men to' take the place of the Roosevelt men now on the ticket as Republican electors, then the Roosevelt men must go on the Inde pendent ticket by petition. Further than this Roosevelt's name could not be placed on the ticket. Thousands of Republicans voted to place these names on the ticket. I dv. not think this meeting has any right or authority to set aside the decision of the 70,000 voters who supported the Roosevelt nominees in the primaries and this matter is not of our own making or creation. Without venom or vicious- ness, I ask you as men can we do it This matter must be decided in settling the problem presented to ua in this resolution." "The Only Salvation," Said Tincher. Then came a motion to send the reso lution to a special committee of five members. It was lost in the flood of oratory that followed and J. N. Tlncher, of Medicine Lodge, was recognized. He fought for the resolution and brought out cheers from the Taft forces. He urged that the adoption of the docu ment was the only salvation of the Re publican party in Kansas.

United States Senator J. L. Bristow stated that he believed the committee had no authority to adopt the resolu tion. "The committee or council had no more right to remove the regular elec toral nominees from the ticket than they have to remove the name ol Stubbs or some other candidates," said Bristow. "I do not think the resolu tion can be enforced." Frank L. Beam, of McPherson coun ty, was the unanimous choice of the committee for secretary. W. F.

Detroit gets the classy spit bailer. Manager Hen dricks made the announcement upon his arrival here today. The consider ation is not named but Hendricks de clared the flinger brought- him a good price. The sale of Healey to a big league club is a credit to Hendricks. Just one year ago Healey was pitching ball on the lots in Denver. Hendricks saw him and signed the husky athlete at once. He pitched six games in the Western League last year and won all of them. This year he has been one of the best pitchers in the league all season. He will pitch the Wednesday game against Topeka- He has had no experience in professional ball except with the Griz zly leader. Hendricks expects to lose at icasx one man by draft. He will probally have another player or two .to sell this season. Beal, he says, he feas mav be drafted and he also xears "or Catcher Block, whom he knows a number of teams are watching.

But ho'n a nearh in left and with a I stranger in his place while Lee played I right there would be two weak spots in the outfield instead of one. Manager Gear has made what seems to the writer a wise decision in not smiling the outfield. Tt Isn't often the Kaws get to Dur ham, all of which made the Monday win more gratifying. The Kaws should have had a least I three of the four Wichita, games and the chances are would have had them had not stupid coaching and poor base running prevented scoring in tne nrst Sunday game. Cocreham, said not to be good with men on bases, came to the rescue Monday with the bases, overflowing and no one down. He came away from tha encounter with honors, pitching the Kaws out of a tight place. The most terrific drive on the local grounds this year was Lee's smash against the score board. The ball struck well up on the fence and bounced 25 feet back towards Davis who held Lee at third. Otherwise it looked good for a homer when the man ner in which Lee navigated the bases is considered. Walter Frantz is playing good ball for the Witches, and every man on the team is pulling for him. Notice the sacrifice hits in the Mon Hot contest? The Kaws are becoming better at this end of the game and it is an important one. McDonald seems to have struck his hitting stride. He grabbed a splendid single beside his homer in Monday's contest. 1 The prevailing fashion seems now to be for the pitcher to make two hits a game. McKee did it yesterday, Rey nolds and Hornsby eacli got two hits in the Sunday double bill. After this series the Kaws leave home. Better get out and see them as soon as possibla.

What is claimed by many horsemen as a world's record for continuous speed in that class was made at the race meet in St. Marys last week.

And there seems to be some partic ularly easy marks In France. They are offering Jack Johnson $30,000 to put on a fight with Joe Jeannette. l Champ Clark appears to be among the few who are easily satisfied. He Is proud of the record made by the house of representatives during the session of congress that has Just expired. About the only thing that can be said to the credit of General Orozco Is that he has some of the cunning of a fox. He manages to evade the traps that are set for him by the Mexican federals. Here's a chance for a laugh. A sa loon and dance hall in Chicago es caped paying taxes or liquor licenses for seven years because Its promoters told the assessors that it was "church property." Dr. Crumbine's suggestion that all dogs should be muzzled for 0 or 90 days during the summer Is not an un reasonable one. It is a custom that has prevailed in many eastern locali ties for many years. Why should Mr. Archbold get angry at being called a liar by Colonel Roosevelt? Many of the nation's most distinguished citizens have been bo characterized by the third-term presidential candidate. As might have be3n expected. The production of a $10,000,000 tobacco crop this year In the "Black Patch" of Kentucky has resulted In the "night riders" organizing to destroy as much of It as they can. Reports come from Missouri that many of the hogs there are afflicted with swelled heads. This seems to be no more than a reasonable attitude for the hogs to assume in view of the price that pork is now bringing. Even being "in the silken bands of religious restraint" doesn't prevent Dave Leahy from engaging in his par amount pursuit of writing letters. But this time, the three columns he wrote about the delights of his se questration made mighty interesting reading. New York's police commissioner is asking for $19,350,000 for the conduct of his department during the next year. -This is an increase of $3,350,000 over- the cost of the department for the current year. But why not oper ate the New. York police department out of the graft It collects? Governor Wilson Is, Indeed, a man of great discernment. He has reached the conclusion that the country is tired of extended stumping tours, and for that reason he proposes to make few campaign speeches. If Mr. Wil son will adhere to these plans, he will undoubtedly receive many votes that he would not have otherwise ob tained. John Dawson, the state's attorney general, suggests something real In the way of Judicial reform. He would abolish all justice of the peace courts In the larger cities and establish in their places debtors courts through which workingmen and others could collect money due them without court costs or the employment- of an at torney. State fiscal officers are painting with pride to the fact that they have col lected nearly $1,000,000 in fees during the fiscal year of .1912, the largest amount so collected In any one year in t the state's history. However, these fees are In reality only additional bur dens on' the taxpayers anct the others of the proletariat who may not pay taxes. The corporations, concerns and Sndlviduals. who have to pay these fees directly see -to It they get them all back' with, interest In che prices they charge for their wares or services. If the recall of Judges was In opera tion in Texas, the official life of the Judge of the county court at McKin- ley, that state, would surely be a short one. He actually fined the lead er of a mob that lynched a negro $1. With most righteous indignation does the man thus punished protest. He threatens to appeal the case to the higher courts. Establishing a prece dent in Texas of punishing the lynch ers of negroes even to the extent of fining them $1 each is a turn of Jus tice that could scarcely be tolerated in such an enlightened commonwealth. BUSINESS PROSPECTS GOOD. "This is the season when crops are the controlling factor In business, writes Henry Clews, the New York banker. In his current weekly financial review, and he continues: "At the moment the outlook is for a much bigger agricultural product in both quantity and values than the country has ever experienced. A big wheat crop, fine in weight and quality, has al ready been harvested and is bringing good prices. The biggest corn crop on record will soon begin to be garnered This crop has already overcome its backwardness and is now normal as to time. In another week or two cutting will become more general; and if frost is only escaped in the corn belt until the usual date. which Is about Oct ober 1, the biggest crop on record will then be practically safe. Some enthu siastic estimates are running as high as 3,000,000,000 bushels. The only im portant crop concerning which there is real uncertainty Is cotton. Present ex pectations are for a 14,000,000-bale-yleld or over, but another three or four weeks of good weather is necessary to bring these results. As August is usually a month of deterioration in cotton, ?t would be well to hold extreme optim ism somewhat In reserve. It is already an old story that we have secured big crops of hay, oats, fruit, etc. Nothing short of disastrous weather, therefore, can now prevent a year of record breaking prosperity for the American farmer. This means a powerful stim ulus to many lines of industry. The corn crop by itself is of incalculable value, because of the many .directions in which it is utilized as food or for manufacturing purposes. Cotton, too, is one of the vital elements In our na tional prosperity; being one of our mainstays In the export trade, as well as a ruling factor in our textile indus tries. "These two great crops will not only vitalize many industrial pursuits, but will also enable our farmers to be liberal buyers of both luxuries and ne cessities during the coming winter. 'Reports of an impending car famine are coming from all directions, and can only be averted by shippers promptly co-operating with the railroads in avoiding such conditions. One of the mcst beneficial effects of a tig harvest would be its tendency to reduce the cost of living. Food, the principal item in the cost of living to the masses, will certainly be cheaper at first hands; and if there is not a substantial decline in the prices of breadstuff s and meats next winter, it. wilt not be the, fault of the American farmer. The blame, if any. will be more likely to fall upon the distributor. "The activity of the iron trade con tinues phenomenal. Prices have risen $G to $8 per ton from the lowest point. Many plants are running to the full limit of their capacity, and complaints are increasing of tardy deliveries. The demand for steel products, of course, comes chiefly from the railroads, which are compelled to renew both equipment and rails upon an extensive scale. The possibility that steel prices will ad vance still further is also forcing out many orders which have been deferred as long as possible. "With the two greatest industries in the country farming and steel in such sound and active condition, how long will it be possible to defer business ac tivity? At present business is pros perous here and there because of the liberal profits arising from advancing pr?ies, but what about the volume of business? That is not increasing sat isfactorily. While Europe has been en-I joying an enunnuua iraue epiLiiiun during the last two years, quite us great In quantity as In value, the United States has been practically marking time as to volume. It is some times misleading to measure progress in values; and Just now we are partic ularly in need of expansion in the vol ume of trade. This should; certainly come." A $50,000 TOOTHACHE. A great corporation recently sent its star representative to close an impor tant deal, writes Herbert Kaufman in Woman's World for September. Pos sessed of unique facilities and en dorsed by a successful career, every advantage lay with this company. The man chosen to represent them was competent, resourceful, familiar with all the intricate details of his line. possessed of a pleasing personality and the power of conviction. His habits were orderly, he neither drank nor gambled and could be relied upon in any emergency, but a toothache un doubtedly lost his principals a profit of $50,000. The tooth began to bother him the day of his departure it became ul cerated on the train, and he spent an entire night without sleep and In nerve-racking agony! Arrived at his destination, he was utterly unfit for work and In a dulled, distracted frame of mind, attempted to transact' business. He. could not concentrate his attention upon his du ties, his selling talk was rambling and listless, he lacked force and magnetism and made such a poor case for him self that a competitor, who under nor mal conditions would have been dis tinctly his inferior, succeeded in clos ing the contract. Year by year, we are learning how essential is physical perfection, not only to personal welfare, but to trade and the professions as well. The physician who doesn't guard his own health can not bear up under the- demands of a beavy practice the surgeon who is not in the pink; of con dition lacks readinesa and steadiness in crucial operations the employee at the mercy of bad teeth, no matter what his skill, knowledge and capabil ity, can not be relied upon the law yer who shows no discretion in his selection of food Is fair prey to the irritation of indigestion during his most important trials. The hour Is not far distant when employers in estimating, a man's fit- ness for responsibility, will take sharp account of his body as well as his brains. Flawed timbers are not safe.

That sort of a disposition of the present complications wouH rppeal to the spirit of fairness and probably cause the withdrawal of the various suits pending before the courts. The problem is a Dig one, a. uroau one. It is herore ine wise mtu m au peka today for solution. After the above was printed, and Just after noon today, a few minutes before the first meeting of the party council. the Republican State Committee, witn iwentv Progressives voting therefor, adopted a resolution requesting that the Roosevelt electors withdraw from thn Republican electoral ticket and be placed as Roosevelt electors in the In dependent column, and asking the sub Rtitutlon of Taft electors under' the names of the Republican ticket and Taft and Sherman. This certainly indicates a commend able spirit of fairness. From the favor which the resolution was received, it Is slmnst assured that a similar resolution will be adopted by the party council and prevail sometime late this after noon. JOURNAL ENTRIES Few people have as many trua friends as they deserve. Most of the self-made men also pro vide themselves with big heads. People who can't take Jokes are gen erally strong on springing them. If it is true that poets are born the world should be more tolerant to wards them. What has become of the old-fashioned children who had good table-manners? POINTED PARAGRAPHS. (From the Chicago' News.) A kicker seldom-makes good in a business of his own. Only the office without a salary has to seek the man. In the language of lovers, kisses speak louder than, words. There is always a big demand for a thing that cannot be had. Yes, Alonzo, lots of the sweetest kinds of girls failed to graduate. There are more brands of eussedness than there are brands of religion. Anyway, a married man never has to waste any time in making up his mind. It takes a brave man to face a Ht tlo woman at the head of the stairs at 2 a. m. Some women are so changeable that they never wear the same complexion twice. SAYS UNCLE GAV When you've got the mental equiva lent of three drinks under your hat band, have thrown your speed clutch over into the high and are burning up the road to ambitionville. you may be- !eve that you've got everything to be nesirea out you haven't. The world isn't entirelv sneed mad, Johp Henry. There ate more inspir 'ng sights than a blue streak with two white lights in front and a red light on Behind. We aren't bent, on making radio tlectrical Impulses look like alow coaches, although they go round the world only eight times in a second. There's something else in the back of our heads besides speed. In fact, this speed mania his about played out. We've tumbled to the fact that while we've been spinning along in the high, we've been missing a lot of fun and a great many good things that aren't entirely fun. Speed will be desirable so long as time is a factor in earthly values, and when it isn't you and I will have lost interest in this sphere. But speecn at the expense of quality, whether it be in joy riding or the making of over alls, is a mighty expensive and In rigniflcant factor in the problem of human existence, Speed for speed's saite is just about as "heady" as pure alcohol and no "healthier. To the healthy man, it has little attraction. It may pass muster as an occasional, un natural diversion, but that's all. What you and I and other com paratively sane folk want Is quality. It's a universal principle, but bringing home to everyday life, you'll remem ber that not all the machines in the world have been able to kill the Im pulse to do and tho desire to use the product of hand labor. The work of the hand has UDon it that bloom which is quality and art. Those of us who know what wa want are willing to wait for the approximately perfect product. That s true of everything from Persian rusa to Roauefort cheese. We are learning in this country to appreciate a little healthy leisure and the excellent thine that takes time. We still have something of a craze for rapid transit, but it would surprise you to know how many people would abandon the fast trains if the slow trains were more comfortable. Speed and comfort in travel coincide only because the companies that can afford to operate fast trains and fast boats can also afford to make them models of comfort. Otherwise, they would be losing ventures It's the comfori, after all, that counts. We are becoming suspicious of speed. We know that' in manufactur ing speed is only too likely to mean f hoddy. We have confidence in the manufacturer who frankly says that he takes time it means pains and conscience. So, John Henry, take your time. Make every- minute count for quality, which is the only true prog ress. Rocketlike careers end like rock ets, in smoke and the evil odor of burning wood and paper. Speed at the cost of integrity and efficiency is mad ness, and nowadays a less popular form of madness than it was yester year. (Copyright. 1912, by the Mc Clure Newspaper Syndicate.) The Mississippi Forest. It may be only a chance unaware ness of my own, but it seems to me that no one has ever truly described the happy, sturdy beauty of the Mis sissippi forest. kAll my literary pre monitions were ofmuddy. river bot toms, sinister cane brakes and dark, lowering moss hung swamps. But no swamps a.e here.-- There are rather several levels; first; the creek bed and banks; then thick grown bottom lands, so-called, which are sometimes over flowed, but except for an occasional marshy hollow, mostly dry; and then a third rolling level, where the long leaved pine trees grow, beautifully open and free from underbrush, and covered with a bright green coarse grass. The bottom lands are dense with broad leaved evergreens and hardwoodg cottonwood, sycamore, beech and poplar, this last of enor mous growth never seen in the north. Spruce pine grows here, too, with gray bark instead of red-brown; sometimes headed up, at 60 feet above the ground, into a bit of dense greenery like a clipped evergreen on a lawn; and ancient cypress, with their lower trunks-spreading out into deep flut ings, like wooden buttresses. The cheerful trees, however, are the broad leaved evergreens magnolia. holly and bay; clothed in dark green, in credibly polished leaves, the sunlight striking from them all over little gleaming points. Ai.d draped from tree to tree, over the flowering wild plum, the red blossoms of the buckeye, and the milkwhite starry dogwood, the yellow Jasmine flaunts its golden trumpets.

Most bridegrooms are scared, and some of them never get over it, A bulldog never smiles, but it couldn't help its face much if it did. No one can be a tyrant without be ing hated, and it's unpleasant to be hated. Still, time wouldn't seem so precious unless one wasted a bunch of it occa sionally. You will find it easy enough to cor rect a mistake if it is in the other fellow's favor. Occasionally one meets a braggart who will go the full distance and brag on his wife's relatives.

Wasted opportunities are generally those that go to other people. Some people want to do all their kick ing with other people's feet. Don't count your chickens till they have laid some eggs of their own. Self-conceit is what prompts us to feel sorry for the people who don't like us. The fellows who don't succeed are generally those who want to do some thing else. VAFFYDILS BY TJ. NOAIX. If a lady won't carry her little daughter will the mail-carrier? (Here's your snuff.

(By Donald Allen.) Moses Flint, farmer, had gone out on the veranda after breakfast to take a few whiffs at- his ripe when his wife heard him grunt and looked out from the dining room to inquire: ."What's busted now?" "Do you see that?" as he pointed down tho highway. "It's that gal coming in her 'lectric runabout." "And do you see that?" he asked, as he pointed to a spot In the road in front of the house. "Our spotted hog." "And do you remember what hap pened four weeks ago?" "She ran over the hog." "And two weeks ago?" "She ran over him again." "And now she's going to do the same thing for the third time. Yes, sir; be cause I stood up to her and told her that folks couldn't go around the coun try running over what they pleased and grinning over it, she's como to show her defiance." "You said you'd have her arrested If she did it again." said the wife. "And won't I? By smoke, but you watch Moses Flint! If she so much as grazes that hog with a wheel there'll be something doing! "Don't let her scare you, Moses, with any of her big talk." "Scare me! I'd like to see the wom an that could do it!" Moses lounged down to the gate and leaned over it to glance at the hog wallowing in the dust. The oncoming electric kept to the midaie or tne nign way, and the girl who was driving it wasn t paying very strict attention. "By gum!" muttered the farmer. ""Don't shoo him up, Moses!" called the wife from the veranda. The hog slept on. Thirty seconds more and it happened. A squeal an exclamation two yells and the hog went limping away, and the farmer sprang forward and saved the electric from overturning. "I I didn t see him!" stammered the frightened girl as she caught her breath. "No. of course not. If there had been a barn in the road you wouldn't ha-e seen it. People can t see what they don't want to see!" "Sir!" "Oh, you needn't go to 'siring' me. That's the third time you have run over that hog, and each time you did it a-purpose. You wanted to show that you had all the rights there was, and that I had none. Well, it's three times and out." "If the hog has bn injured I will pay for it." "He's been hurt, of course, but I can't say how bad. He may be dead tomorrer morning. Then there s the shock to his feelins. He is asleep on his own land, feelin' secure, and all to once you bang over him. "I will pay for his feelings, too!" stiffly replied the girl. x "You'll sure have to. Lets see. You've run over that hog three tims. It orter be wuth five dollars a time." "What? Fifteen dollars for the hog and he not badly hurt!" ex claimed the owner of the electric. "It orter be twenty." "It's simply extortion, and I won't pay it! My brother Fred will drive out here and settle the bill. Stand clear of the macmine, sir!" "Don't you get excited, miss. There's a speed law on this road and you've been breaking it- I'm going to have you before the Justice!" "But I was not speeding." "Lucinda, how many miles an hour?" shouted the farmer to his wife. "About twenty-five, Moses. "It wasn't over five." "Don't dispute us, young woman. You are in a bad scrape and hadn't better make it wuss by any sass. I'll get in there and we'll go on to Judge Brown's." "You'll not get in here, sir!" "Oh, that's It, eh?" The wife came running- down with a rope, and the vehicle was pushed to the fence and tied there. Then the farmer said: "I'll go on foot, and the Judge will fine you double for cutting up over it. Hello, who's this?" It was a young man in an auto. He brought his machine to a stop, and after lifting his cap to the young lady he asked of the farmer: "Been an accident?" "Yes. This young woman run over a hog of mine for the third time and is mighty sassy about it. She's got to pay damages and she'll be fined for breaking the speed law." The young man looked at the girl in an inquiring way, but she made no explanation. "I am a constable, though I have never made any arrests," continued the farmer, "and I deputize you, young man, to hold this gal prisoner for me till I can get back with the Judge. If she won't go to his house Til bring him here." "What damage has been done?" "I can't exactly say yet, but you go ahead and mind the prisoner. If you let her escape" "Oh, I understand." "If you want any help holler to the old woman up there on. the veranda." I will." Moses Flint started off and there was a period of embarrassment for the two strangers sitting in their re spective machines. The young man wanted to say something, but didn't know what until the girl burst out laughing. He laughed with her. "It's funny," she whispered. "Did you kill the hog?" he asked. "No. He scared me worse than I did him." v "But the farmer wanted damages?" "It is regular robbery." "I had to pay three dollars for an old hen I killed the other day, but I am not going to see you robbed. Is your electric all right?" "Only tied up." "Well, I'm going to slip down and untie it. I am a deputy constable in and for the town of Ransom, under stand; but sometimes I'm near sighted and hard of hearing, if I shouldn't see nor hear my prisoner get away "But how about you? There's the woman on the veranda." "Oh, I can get back into my auto before she can get here. Stand r.p and look along the road and attract her attention. Beautifully done! Now the rope is loose. Now I'm looking the other way. Now I don't hear anything. The deputy con stable wishes his prisoner a pleasant Journey." The electric bad started off before the. farmer's wife saw it... Then she came down the path with an impetus that carried the gate off its hinges, but she was too late. The autoist -was In his machine and speeding away. It was what the detectives term a "neat getaway." The young lady had not driven a mile before she gasped out: "Now Just think of that! He doesn't even know my name!" 1 And five minutes later: "And I don't know his!" He was Randolph Roberts on his way to the city to make prepsrsuuuo to sail for Europe. She was Miss Estelle Hastings, daughter of the broker, who would also sail within a month. One night at a table d'hote in Switzerland they found themselves vis-a-vis- "My escaped prisoner!" he ex claimed. "My deputy constable!" she re torted. She won't be permitted tc escape again. He has her bound by her solemn promise not to attempt it. (Copyrighted 1912 by the Associated Literary Press.) EVENING CHAT by roth cAinonoi. Enthusiasm. Popularity papers Being the second of a few little talks on the ingredi ents of popularity. Enthusiasm was a second, though not a very close second, to unselfishness, in my poll of the qualities which make for popularity. Men, especially, are attracted by this quality. Girls sometimes say, "Men al ways like loud girls. Look at Gertrude, she is Just as loud and coarse as she can be, and. a terrible flirt, and she always has a string of men after her, wnne J-.ucy, who Is Just as sweet and nice as anything, never has a man." May It not be the vivacity and spirit, the liveliness, in short, the enthusiasm with which Gertrude Is always bubbling over, rather than her tendency to coarseness, which makes men like her? To be sure. Lucy is nice and sweet, but even you, her champions, must ad mit that she has painfully little spirit and vivacity. Enthusiasm, real, genuine enthusiasm, springing from health and good will and love of if un, is an invaluable charm. Eleanor is always an eagerly welcom ed guest at all gatherings of the young people of her neighborhood, whether goose parties or mixed gatherings. Why? Simply because, as one of her admirers puts it. "Things always go when Eleanor Is around." Eleanor you see is blessed with an enthusiastic and vivacious spirit. Enthusiastic people always have fun wherever they go and consequently make other people have a good time. They are foes of monotony and bore dom, and hence friends of the whole human race. "All this is very well," I hear some one saying, "and very fine for the lucky people who are born with the gift of enthusiasm, but you promised to give a recipe for popularity, and what's the use of a recipe when you can't get the ingredients? What about us whe weren't born that way?" Ah, my friend, you are right in call ing those fortunate, who are born with the great sift of enthusiasm. It is in deed the wonderful quality which, like the twelfth good fairy's gift, or Pan dora's final discovery, annuls many misfortunes. But you are wrong in thinking that this ingredient Is unat tainable unless you are born with it; If you aren't naturally enthusiastic and vivacious, cultivate these qualities. You think that's impossible? A greater philosopher than you oi- I differ from you. "Depend upon it," says Johnson, "vivacity is much an art and depends greatly on" habit." To be sure, it will not be so easy for you as for the person born with this good spirit, but hard and impossible are by no means synonomous. But mind one thing. Remember It is not the appearance of enthusiasm that you are to cultivate. That's a hollow bauble which all who find out its emp tiness Justly despise. Fake enthusiasm like fake unselfishness will only bring fake popularity. You must cultivate genuine, heart deep enthusiasm if you wish to win with it genuine, heart deep popularity. Reported by the Everest Enterprise: Little Minnie Larson had the misfor tune to step on a rusty nail this week and received a severe pain. Mr. Lafe Lantern, who is visiting with relatives in Harper, ought to have little trouble in finding his way in the dark. If you want to find out who the really witty men in town are, advises the Herington Sun, start down the street with a watermelon under your arm.

The -Square Deal idea, as it occurs to the Kiowa County Signal: "If you do not talk as we do, and do as we want you to do, you are an Incubus and we will kill you to get rid of you."

The latest alcoholic drink is- the fluid that is found in the bottom of silos, reports the St. John County Capital. Of course, there is no reve nue tax on it as yet, but it seems to be the real corn product, raw bour bon. And. too, it is reported to tho department of agriculture that a Vir ginia farmer's cows got drunk from munching fermented corn stalks. A business man of Leavenworth has received a letter from a probate Judge in western Kansas) in which he refers three-times to his holding a Juvenile court. The first time he spells It "Ju vanile," the second time "Juvanil" and the third time "Juvinal" three "bad spells" all in a row without even one "hit" by accident! A cabinet maker was once elected probate Judge in Jefferson county who spelled it "Pro bat Jug." Troy Chief. JAYHAWKER JOTS KANSAS COMMENT WHAT'S AUTUMN FOR. If you're human you are probably, influenced by the seasons. And. being influenced by the seasons, you are probably aware right now that there is a change going on.

FROM OTHER PENS L THE NEW EDUCATIONAL PLAN The Montessori method of teaching children is attracting wide attention and at present several American edu cators are abroad studying the work of this new system and son.e attempts have already been made to Introduce it into this country. In essence the Mon tessori method Is a system of self-education for young children through the principle of child liberty. "Toward sin gle individuals, one by one observed, education must direct Itself." says Dr. Montossorl, who, by the way, ls a wo man and a noted Italian educator. In her system the teacher. Instead of teaching and correcting. merely ob serves and directs. A typical Montes sori program consists .of informal con versational periods; lessons with short rest intervals between games, both free and directed; simple gymnastics, clay modeling, collective singing and in spection as to personal cleanliness. Music, poetry and dancing are used to develop the child's rhythmic sense, and it was found after the children had learned dancing they ceased Instinc tively the ugly Jumping which was one of their former pastimes. The plan is carefully devised to promote muscular co-ordination and sence perception, the two directions of functional growth In young children. New Orleans Pica yune. NINE-MEN VERDICTS. There can be no doubt that the' pro posal to allow nine members of a Jury to render verdicts in civil cases Is growing in favor. It is one of the judicial reforms most likely to be en acted during the next session of the legislature. The prejudice It encoun tered in the beginning is being dis pelled; men are beginning to see that this change may be made without put ting the Jury system In Jeopardy. The notion and it is the basic assumption of our practice that truth can be found only in the agreement of twelve men ls nonsensical. The probability is that few of the verdicts rendered In civil cases are concurred In by the twelve members of the Jury. One or more of those Jurors Is apt to have yielded to the opinion of the majojrlty without having changed his own opin ion 1 nthe least. To allow nine mem bers to render a verdict would not, heerfore, be so radical a change as most people fancy. The greatest change effected would be in increasing the difficulty of causing a mistrial by tl.e simple expedient of putting a "sinker" on the Jury. It may not be easy to slip one dishonest man Into a Jury trying a civil case, but if It is dif ficult, it would be three times as diffi cult to slip three such men Into a Jury. A law of this kind would relieve our courts greatly. Galveston News. HVMOR OF THE DAY He Does a woman when she's married expect her husband to tell her his buslne. affairs?

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL AUGUST ,27, 1912 If You Are Not Cured You Owe Them Nothing This offer is made to you by the United Doctors Institute, at 610 Kansas ave, the association of eminent physicians which has extended hope and health and happiness to. hundreds of sick and afflicted people in Topeka and Kansas during tha time their institution has been established in Topeka. Hundreds of sufferers from chronic and special diseases who have read the statements of the United Doctors in the Topeka State Journal .have come to their institution and have been cured. A contract to cure goes to every patient who comes to the United Doctors. By this method you run absolutely no risk, you know exactly what you are treated for, how long it will be necessary to take treatment to be cured and that once cured you are sure of the permanency of it. There is no reason in the world why you should not consult with the United Doctors, let them examine you, make scientific blood .or secretion tests.

It's a duty every ailing man should not neglect, to consult earnest, capable specialists and al low them to restore him to health, enabling him to provide for the family, to bring cheerfulness and confidence into his circle of friends and relatives that health only can assure. No specialist in the city or state is better qualified to diagnose your case and none can cure you more promptly or economically than the United Doctors. Tou know, have been told or have read oft?n enough, the symptoms of PIIjES. Distressing as tlua disease is, the complications which arise if the disorder is neglected are much more dan gerous. Allow piles to go without the United Doctors' treatment, which cures any case, and nervous reflexes, weakened kidneys and diseases of btomach and bowels result and the body is unable to combat disease germs which are encountered every day of life. The United Doctors cure piles permanently and safely. No operations and no retention from work. Come to their institute, let them treat and cure you. You will be the happiest person on Kansas soil. If you are not cured you owe them nothing. Bladder, Kidney, Prostatic Diseases, rTV00. often suffering from a resultant disorder along with the organic disease which you are positive causes your distress. Diseases of the bladder, kidneys and pelvic organs are promptly cured by the United Doctors. These specialists have won success and distinction in the curing of these diseases. Every case coming to the institute receives personal attention, in examination, in Chem ical analysis of secretions and in the direction of treatment. The United Doctors have succeeded in curing cases which so-called doctors have given up for lost. JerVO-deliilitv has caused many a man to become weakened and organic diseases to develop. Mental forces become impaired, sympathetic nervous system and forces governing the organs are deranged by reflex effects of the disease. The United Doctors cure nervous diseases caused by disorders of the pelvic organs. Their method of treatment strengthens the nerves, lelieves the diseased parts, stops all weakening and debilitating drains and the patient is quickly snd surely cured. Their cures are permanent, their charges are so small you will be glad to meet them, but if you are not cured you owe them nothing. CJrprl fir Tlrtnrl Pdisnn should be treated in a scientific manner. None of the so opci,lu AJiUUU x Uiaun called miraculous cures are to be depended upon. Many unprincipled fakers will use nostroms and poisons which only double the seriousness of the case, sub ject you to blindness, paralysis and sometimes death. If you are a sufferer from blood poison take your case to the United Doctors. The eminent specialists of the institution have been in Topeka four years, have built up a dependable practice and an enviable reputation and desire to continue a straightforward businesslike institution and will not jeopardize this standing by resort ing to any unsafe method for treatment of blood poison. Further, they have adopted a method of treatment which they have proven to be absolutely safe, sure of cure and satisfactorily used by thousands of the best specialists throughout the world. Nine out of every ten cases can be cured by the United Doc tors' treatment. These diseases develop largely from disordered and deranged organs or infections. The time, to take these diseases to effect the quickest and surest cures is when you notice distressing and irregular pains in back, head and muscles, when the first symptoms of extreme nervousness and despondency are noticed. Go to the United Doctors. Consult with physicians who have made a life study of the treatment and cure of these diseases. They are curing women of just such ills as you are suffering today. Don't consider an operation. The United Doctors believe and have proven that nine cases out of ten can be cured without the knife. The United Doctors treit curable cases of Asthma, Goitre, Paralysis, Locomotor Ataxia (first stage). Piles, Rheumatism, Diseases of the Heart, Liver, Lungs, Kidneys, Bladder, Spleen, Blood Poison, Skin Diseases, Diseases of Women and Special Diseases of Men.

Commissioner Miller is insuring the c:ty against fire by examining the water mains and hydrants to the minutest de tail He discovered that on Kansas avenue very few of the pipes had valves between the hydrant and the main. In case of trouble the hyd rant supplying over half the business section of the town woutd be shut eff The whole district would be ab solutely without water if a serious fire occurred. Mr. Miller is inserting valves to be used in emergency and two steam er hydrants on each corner. In a mill district in North Topeka there was a four-inch main with diminutive capac ity: an eight-inch main has been sub stituted, insuring proper protection in case of accident. During the flood of 1903 the city, was without water for a month because tho engine rooms were afloat. The Santa Fe at that time had insufficient con nection and supply, so was unable 'O furnish the proper amount of water. It has since installed a water system equivalent to 5.000.000 gallons a day. Next week Commissioner Miller will carry a ten-inch main down Crane street to the Santa Fe, practically do ing away with any danger of being without water in time of flood. 'It was nice of the Santa Fe to do what they did. and we are willing to help them," Mr. Miller said, "since they employ thousands of our citizens we should be glad to give them any pro tection we can. 2,000 men might have been out of employment after a big fire but this responsibility has now been taken care of. "I want people to know what I'm do ing, and that I think rounding up busi ness on a cheap scale is often disast rous to the people," Commissioner Mil ler declared. "To do things right often costs a few dollars, and saves a few millions." SLEUTH LANDS IN JAIL He Was on the Hunt for Members of Allen Gang. Huntington, W. Va Aug. 27.

If teeth are faulty, soften Grape Nuts with hot milk or cream, or allo-v to stand a minute soaking in cold cream. "There's a Reason" as follows: Grape-Nuts food is in the form of hard and brittle granules, intended to be ground up by the teeth; that work not only preserves the teeth but brings down the saliva from the gums so necessary in the primary work of digestion. Many people say (and it Is true) that when, they eat Grape-Nuts they seem able to digest not only that food but other kinds which formerly male trouble when eaten without Grapo NutS. Chew!! "There's a Reason" for POSTUM CEREAL CO., LTD, BATTLE CREEK. MICH. WORK OF THE HOUSE. It Is Severely Criticised by Itepubli can leader- Mann. Washington, Aug. 27. Inefficient, disorganized, unprogressive and in active were words used today to de scribe the work of the Democratic house by Leader Mann, in a statement reviewing the accomplishment of the lower chamber of the 62nd congress. Mr. Mann characterizes the Demo crats majority work as silly and other of its acts as pure extravagance. 1 "The boast about economy went by the board," said the minority leader, "The main work in the house on the Democrat side has been a con stant boasting of what they were go ing to do at the next session. "I said last December that this ses sion of congress would last longer and do less than any other regular ses sion of recent years. "My forecast proved correct. This session of congress has enacted laws fewer in number and of less impor tance than any session in recent years. The laws passed are in the main of little importance and generally local in character. The Panama canal bill is the one of greatest importance and in the main that was a bill prepared by me in a prior congress. "The claimed reformation of the rules has proven a farce. That the house has 'been inefficient is shown by the fact that over 200 senate bills which passed the senate remain un acted on in the house. It is a con stant boast that the Democrats at this session passed a law providing for publicity of campaign contributions. Such is not the fact. They only pass ed an amendment to the law which had previously been passed by a Re publican house and the principal parts relating to primary campaign expenses that was inserted in the law by the Republican against the protest of the Democrat side. Somewhat similar is the bill relating to eight hour labor which is only an amend ment of a previous law and only made a slight change in the provisions of the original act. "Practically all the laws of any im portance passed at this session were either bills prepared in a previous congress and left over for lack of time to consider or else they were bills prepared by officials in President Taft's administration." Mr. Mann referred to the public health laws, the homestead laws, the bill creating a children bureau and others as being within that classifica tion." "The Democrats were forced to agree to a parcels post which only a short time ago they insisted they would not agree to," continued the statement. "They are entitled to no credit for it. "Outside of money expended for the Panama canal, which cannot be con sidered as ordinary expenses, the ap propriations for this session of con gress exceed those of the last Repub lican session. "Not only is this so, but the Demo crats have appropriated money in many places where it was pure ex travagance and where, the money was not needed and have refused to make appropriations where they are abso lutely essential for the conduct of good government."

In his first political address since accepting the Democratic nomination for vice presi dent of the United States, Governor Thomas R. Marshall, of Indiana, con demned the protective tariff system be fore a Democratic mass meeting here tonight. Governor Marshall was the first of the party leaders from outside the state to take part, in the Demo cratic campaign preceding the state election on September 9. Because of the fact that liquor legis lation has been a feature of Governor Marshall's administration, it had been expected by some Maine Democrats that the sneaker might refer to the Maine prohibitory law. Governor Mar shall, however, aeciarea ne wouia not discuss local issues. "I am a Democrat," he said in this connection, "and because I am a Dem ocrat I believe in the doctrine of local government. I believe, too, at this par- importance than local questions. There- I conceive to be national issues." Governor Marshall said in part: "Why must the consumer always be the goat? I believe In vested rights but I do not believe in vested wrongs. I do not particularly censure the manu facturers for getting all they can but I contend that the proof of the iniquity is so plain that the blame is the people's." "It is idle for some men to make declarations. Broken promises are oft times more eloquent than their words. "Who is going to believe the regular Republican organization when it de clares that It is opposed to special priv ileges? "Who takes It seriously when it points with pride to its enactments to curtail monopoly? "Does any one doubt that for seven and one-half years the leader of the Progressive party was in power in this country? "Can anyone put his finger upon a single effort made by him to curb the mcnopolistic tendency which was then rampant. Does anyone believe that his new platform which stands both for socialism and for a system of licensing and curbing is anything more than a bid for votes? "To stand pat or ..progressive, every man opposed to special privilege may say as Nathan -said unto David: 'Thou art the man.' If theret are laws to elim inate special privileges the Republicans did not enforce .them." ilf there are no effective laws they failed to enact effec tive ones; if "conditions are such as to prevent proper control, they became so under their responsibility. "I do not address myself to the man who believes that honesty is the best policy. I fear that he may find out sometime that dishonesty pays and straightway forget his policy. Nor do I care to talk to the man who is satis fied with the statement that we are the richest people in the world. If he means to say there are more rich men in America than any other country he is correct; but if he implies that the natural and acquired wealth of Amer ica has been fairly and honestly dis tributed among the people, he is alto gether wrong. Source of All Wealth. "The source of wealth is well known; it springs from the soil; it is dug out of the earth; it is cut from the for ests; it is that which God gives with the labor of the people added thereto. If it is unequally distributed, a free people have the power to correct the evils which permit or cause unequal distribution; if they do not correct them, thy ought to cease growling about them. "I have lived long enough to follow the changing reasons advanced for the high protective tariff. I have found them all to be shifty uncertain and dishonorable. First, it was to pay oft the war debt by compelling the foreign manufacturer to contribute to the Uni ted States treasury, then it was to fos ter our infant industries, then to pro tect American labor against the pauper labor of Europe, and finally in the last campaign to equalize the cost of pro duction at home and abroad. At last the frank statement was made that tht government proposed to take its man ufacturies into partnership with it and that this partnership was proposing tc sell to the consumers of this country all the .necessities of life except those grown upon the farms, not for the ben efit of the government but for the benefit of the manufacturer. Government Partnerships. "I myself, have never been able to determine what system of business of ethics should Induce a government to form a partnership with the man whe made the cloth that Is in my coat while totally refusing to form a part nership with me who buys the coat and wears it. It is not the business of government to form a partnership with any one unless it forms a partnershir. with a. "The relentless cruelty to the con sumer is revealed by the fact that the products are sold at less price to the people abroad than to the people at home. Surplus products, it is ex plained, but it is not explained why men go on from year to year makinj products in vaster quantities than are needed only to sell the surplus at a loss. I am in favor of a system of taxation which will compel the pro tected manufacturer to sell the surplus at home and the product abroad. This will for the first time in history com pel foreigners to pay the tax. "The Republicans both standpat anc progressive have been responsible for this condition of affairs. They do not recede from this system, but they pro pose to give us some sort of a scien tific Investigation which may disclose like the declaration. rot independence that in the course of human events some slight changes should be made in the schedules.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL AUGUST 27, 1912 THE EDITORS MEET 7 Democrats Held' Interesting Session at Throop Hotel. Col. Wm. Sapp and J. W. Orr Among the Speakers. A vivid description' of the Democratic national convention at" Baltimore that resulted in the nomination of Governor Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey, given by National Committeeman W. F. Sapp, was pjerhaps the feature of an enthusiastic, .meeting of the Kansas Democratic Editorial association held at the Throop hotel last night. The meeting was attended not only by Imocratic editors, but by numerous politicians of Topeka and over the state. And the key note of the entire proceeding was the. evident expectation that the elect'on this fall .will result in a sweeping victory for the Democrats. sr rrjj 'im 1 i v js. George Neeley. Congressman From the Seventh District lo Is a Young Man. an Eloquent Talker and Full of Knerjry lu the Cause of the De mocracy. Colonel Sapp detailed the hard fight made by William Jennings Bryan be fore the Baltimore convention, declaring- that, undoubtedly it w-us the Com moner's influence and work that nom inated Wilson. He closed by declaring that Wilson undoubtedly will be elected this fall, and that Kansas will swing into the Democratic column by a hand some majority that will elect every candidate on the Democratic ticket. J. W. Orr, Democratic candidate for representative from Atchison, talked about Democratic prospects". Thomas W. Morgan of the Ottawa Republic talked of Democratic organization. S. T. Osterhold, editor of the Holton Signal, spoke on the subject, "A Well Balanced Weekly Newspaper." Glick Fockele, of the Leroy Reporter, talked on the subject, "What the Subscribers Like to Read." taking the subject up from the standpoint of the country editor. The meeting was called to order by Harrison Parkman, editor of the Em poria Times, president of the associa tion. Reports were read by J. W. Howe of the Abilene News, secretary. Talking about "Democratic Pros pects" J. W. Orr of Atchison declared that no public man or political party that fails to note the constantly chang ing conditions of the plan of govern ment, or fails to keep abreast of the times and progress, will be entrusted lmg with the administration of affairs. He charged the Republican party with this sort of failure. He declared that the day has passed when protected in terests could purchase the election of a president, as he said was done in 1904. The interests, he said, will make occa sional raids, but like the raids of the Indians in former days they are sure to b.-? repulsed and will not result in se rious harm. "The Democratic party an'- its splen did leader. Governor Woodrow Wilson." the speaker concluded, "stand for all these things advancement and pro gress, special privileges to none, etc., In their best and broadest sense. Gov ernor Wilson has the desire, the cour age and the' ability to defend and en force them and he will be called to that post." T. W. Morgan urged that .-"rganiza-tion Is necessary to the success, of any party. He said the tendency of the Democratic voter to be indeoend-nt undoubtedly was a good thing, but that it led away from organization, and therefore mitigated somewhat against success. He urged that the money should be raised from the peo ple to carry on political campaigns, -and that money was necessary for cr ganization. S. T. Osterhold urged the value of advertising in making up a "Well Bal anced Weekly Newspaper," and gave numerous ideas as to how proper p.d vertising should be secured. Glick Fockele told of some of the troubles of the country editor in finding what .his readers wanted, and told the as sociation his ideas of what was worth printing in a country weekly, and what his people expected. He oaid rhe weekly by no means takes the place of the big dailies, but merely is supr.e mental to the dailies, giving lcal pi o ple the small news and interesting .items the dailies cannot givo. Mr. Orr said in part: "The public man or political party that fails to note the changed and constantly changing conditions of our very plan of government, or who fails to keep abreast of this progress and advance ment will not long be entrusted with the administration of the affairs of I government. W e are not suffering from, nor passing through a political convulsion. We are only living in the natural order of things. Changed and changing conditions demand changes and enlargements of the scope of gov ernmental powers, whether lodged in the people or in their representatives. No one need console himself with the thought that it soon will be over and next year we shall return to the old order of things. The old order of things Is gone forever. The advanc ing and progressive conditions of our country are not sporadic, but are uni versal, not confined to Oregon, Kansas and Texas, but the same spirit and purpose prevails in New York, Penn sylvania, New England and Ohio. Nor are these conditions or purposes con fined to any political part- or faith, but are country wide. They are not visionary, but are safe, progressive, democratic, splendid. The advancing and progressive conditions do not mean a disruption of our republican form of government, although may work changes in our fundamental law to meet conditions not provided for in the beginning. Among other things, it means that those entrusted with the duties of government must conscien tiously and creditably discharge those duties, or their places will be filled by others. "The bombastic and selfish, the dema gogue and political mountebank will inevitably undertake to appropriate this progressive spirit to self aggrandize ment and advancement but he will not long succeed. The government of this country is rapidly becoming a mattei of individual interest and concern. The people not- only the 'plain, common people' for whom place hunters feel so much solicitude immediately before election, but., the ornate and uncom mon people, as well are taking, an in terest and exhibiting an activity in di recting public affairs quite unknowi: in the past, and the indications arc that the interest and the numbers will increase. "The time when a few v?lf-con&ti-tuted leaders could assemble and pro claim the order of -things and .the day when protected interests could purchase the election of presidents as was done In 1904, not to speak- of a long list of others have gene, for ever. The interests will make occa sional raidf, as did the vanishing In dian tribes in years gone by, but the evil results will be only temporary. Thfe plan is not a menace to property or property. rightR It only means that every man will be given an equal chance with every other man in the affairs of life and business. That no man or set of men will be given spe cial privilege or governmental aid and advantage. and that in the govern ment of this union every man, hiyrb. or low, rich or poor, shall oe given a voice in every detail of government "The very nature, business acumen an1 Americanism of our people necessarily develops b!g business' both as it conceri-a labor and capital, and should be encout aged so long as such like business is con ducted on fair terms. This country "will never return to the old order of small concerns and individual competition, ai-i the desire or hope for .such return will bo in vain, but the government should and will see to.it that the individual or small concern stands equal before the law with combinations of labor of capital. The Democratic party fend its splendid leader. Governor Woodrow Wilson, stand for all these in their best and broadest sens'. Governor Wilson has the desire, the cour age and the ability to defend and enforce them and he will be called to that post WHAT THEY SAY. Continued frrrn Paff n. 1 w fey r;-1 Victor Murdoek.

Dell Travis, former fish and gain warden, is here from Pratt county, in his pocket he has a proxity from the chairman of his county central com mittee. After the day's festivities, Travis wiM. attend the Boss Buster's meeting at the Grand opera house "We have organized a league in Pratt county," said Travis, "and a good many things are likely to happen out there.

F. K. Beam, chairman of the Mc pherson county committee, is foi Roosevelt and wants to take a hand in the writing of a Progressive plat form that has teeth in it. Senator E. U Porter, of Pittsburg, is on the job and will take a hand In the making of the 912 platform. rortei wants to see a Republican victory in the state this year, he declares, but the dean of the senate from Crawford county admits that with the present conditions staring the party in the face, the candidates must fight for all the votes they secure in the Novem ber election. B. A. Allison, of McPherson, will attend the Taft meeting tonight. "I em for Taft and against Roosevelt,' said Allison, "and I thought would have a better idea of the situation if 1 watched the performance here today.' Henry C. Sticher, editor of the Osage City Free Press, is a Progressive. He wants the party council -today to en dorse Roosevelt and Roosevelt theories. But Sticher isn't looking for trouble. In fact, that Osage City editor admits that he will make several sacrifices to avoid a row.

Stanley de clared that every avenue open to Taft forces through the party organization. or through the courts would be resorted to In an effort to keep the Roosevelt electoral candidates off the Republican state ticket in Kansas. "The fight in the party council is but one of the many battles," declared Stanley, "and thi- fight will not end with the action of today's council, no matter what their decision, if it is In any manner un favorable to Taft or the Republican na tional platform." Senator J. S. Stewart of Wichita is here ta attend the Boss Buster meeting to night at the Grand Opera house. In the recent primaries Stewart was defeated by the Sedgwick county Republicans, but this defeat will not prevent Stewart from expressing tonight his opinion of the. Bull Moosers in Kansas. And Stewart has little love for the so called Progressive movement in the state. "We had better clean house and get rid of the gang who are masquerading in the state as Republicans in an effort to control the offices and the party ma chinery," declared Stewart. "A defeat ir, the November election will afford an opportunity for a reorganization. Two years from now you can find the true Republicans and the mugwamps who have adopted the title of Progressives will be in another party where they be long." Stewart is confident that Sedg wick county will give a strong majority for every Democrat who is opposed for election by a Progressive Republican. fife? i!S central committee, I. F.

Sam Woods to Attempt to Escape Punishment for Crime. Lansing, Kan., Aug. 27. Boomlnff of cannon and clashing of cavalry greeted the people of Lansing at day oreaa today.

Whila ingnienea farmers hurried abou; running theoreticallv for their live the Red and the Blue army in the Kansas maneuvers battled in the final engagement of the war. This clasn was to decide the fate of Fort Leavenworth, beset by the Reds and which the Blues are striving to pro tect.

The Blue army was strongly fortified and it seemed, when the battle began an im possible task for the Reds to dislodge mem.

In a battle Monday the Blues defeated the invaaers. with "great loss of life." The Reds, seeking an opening through which they could make the advance on the fort, ventured too close to the J3iue army. Colonel Daniel Cornman, command ing the Blue army, opened fire with his artillery. The Reds scattered but Drougnt tneir artillery to. the front and the Blue position was "shelled" while the Red infantry attacked. The move failed and when the fighting ceased for the day, the Blue army had a distinct advantage. The Blue .r.r.y was to have dropped back towa'd Fort Leavenworth to protect that place from the last at tack of the campaign but Colonel Cornman decided to hold his position here, believing it to be nearer im pregnable than a place closer to the fort.

Public opinion in Wellinjrton, where Snm Woods, the midnight raider on the Matt Manahan- home near Belle Plaine, is being held, is that Woods will plead insanity as a defense for shooting down James Thompson. That Woods will recover now appears to be an assured fact. If he does and the federal authorities allow him to remain in state's hands. Woods will be tried within two months on a charge of murder- in the first degree. His attack on Matt Manahan and his alleged attempt to kidnap Miss Ethel Manahan will not appear in the charges of murder against the big farmer. OFF FOR THE LINKS.

The two hundred Repub licans of all brands who met at the ex ecutive mansion left after four hours' discussion and the creases in the cloth were still rumpled the confer ring members were unable to iron out the differences. The Taft end Roosevelt supporters were harmonious in their personal dis cussions last evening, but when it came to mixing the names of Tart and the Roosevelt presidential elects-is, they could not agree.. It was decided at midnight to allow the decision to rest with the party councll.- It was admitted by all attending the conference last evening that the state ticket in Kansas should be let alone. There seems to be no opposition on this score. It was believed by Governor Stubbs and William Allen White last nilit that 1 might be possible to agree on not allowing Taft's name to appear at the head of the ticket when the names of the Roosevelt electors appeared un der it. Only one man in the conference be lieved that Roosevelt's name should appear at the head of the ticket. This was Senator Bristow. He based '.is assertions on the choice of he voters of the state in nominating the Roose velt electors at the primaries. William Allen White maintained that Roosevelt would ask his electors to resign in case Taft's name tooa at the top of the Kansas ballot this fall. The discussion ended at midnight with all questions referred to the party council. 20 BILLION CALLS, On Phone in Year, Besides Those Who "Couldn't Get Central." Boston, Aug. 27.

St. Louis, Aug. 27.- Mrs. Helen Hathaway Britton, owner, of the St. Louis .National League team, is re ported to ha.ve offered to trade Manat ger Bresnahan to the Brooklyn club for Rucker and Wheat of the latter club. Rucker is regarded as one of the best pitchers in the game while Wheat is a star outfielder and a heavy hitter. The offer is the culmination of the troubles that have existed in the St. Louis team between Mrs. Britton and Manager Bresnahan for some time. It is said the exchange was made with a view of bringing harmony Into the St Louis ranks. It also is said that'll: the event of a trade being made. Mil ler Huggins, second baseman, will become the St. Louis manager. The obstacle in the way of the con summation of such a deal Is said to be Bresnahan's contract which calls for $10,000 a year salary and 10 per cent of the profits of the team. The coil tract has four years to run. President Ebbetts of the Brooklyn club, said last night such a' proposi tion was ridiculous and that he would not even entertain it. T. R. IS THANKFUL, Says Archbold and Penrose live Done Him a Service. Oyster Bay, Aug.. 27. "They can have anything I've got at any time. They arc welcome to any letter I have wri't-it t any hun-an being on any subje'A." This was Colonel Roosevelt's only comment on the senate's adoption of the Penrose resolution directing an Inquiry into the Archbold-Penrose-Roosevelt controversy, over campaign contributions. The news reached him as he was playing a losing tennis game with his sons, Archie and Quen tin, on the court at Sagamore HilL He halted long enough to glance at the evening papers brought him by the correspondents, commented again on tho visit to him of William Loeb,' Jr., had a few words to say concerning William Randolph Hearst's statement In London. "You know I did not direct Loeb to go down to Washington." he said, when he read his declaration, made earlier .in the day that his former pri vate seerttary -was ready to testify as to what he knew of the alleged iuu, 000 contribution of John D. Archbold to his campaign In 1904 and of the Harriman contribution or JZbU.uuu. "Mr. Loeb came to me. He told me he had seen statements in the news papers that he would be called upon to testify before the commVttee. In asmuch as he had been my private secretary nn.l has a very strong sense cf the confidential relations of a pri vate secretary, he thought he would better speak to me before going down to Washington. "I told him. to s-o ahead and testify to everything he could remember. I told him"" that if I was absent from Sagamore Hill he could come up and get my letter dooks ana :taice irom them any letters he wanted to. place before the- committee." Colonel Roosevelt chuckled as he read the newspaper stories. He stop ped abruptly in the reading and look ed up at the correspondents. "I could thank Archbold and Pen rose for what they have done,"- he said. "They have rendered me a real service." One of the correspondents told Colonel Roosevelt that Governor Had lev of Missouri had given an Interview in his defense at Jefferson City, Mo. "Bully for Hadley," was all he said. There is one thing that Colonel Roosevelt asks the correspondents to make clear each time they visit him. That is, he does not say the Standard Oil did not contribute J 100,000 to his campaign fund in 1904, but that he did not know of any such contribution, and that if It was given, his campaign managers received it in volation of his explicit instructions. The letter which uoionei itooseveit is writiner to Senator Clapp, chairman of the senate committee, is not finish ed, and he said he did not -know when it would be done. It will bo long, he added, as he is trying to embody in it tho principal things to which he would have testified had he had-the opportunity to appear before the com mittee.

Appropriations for Running: the Gov ernment in- '1913. Washington. Auk. 27 Congress nas closed another billion dollar ses won, but the exact total of the na tlon's "cost of living" varies as it is seen- through Republican and Demo cratic eyes. The total appropriations for the fis cal year 1913, which began July 1, 1912, amount to 11,019,636,143.66-' as given to the senate and house by Sen ator Warren and Representative Fitz gerald, respectively the chairmen of the two appropriation committees. It is conceded by both of these lead ers that this is 7,046,000 less than tne nation's budffet of 1912. but it re mained for former Speaker Cannun, in behalf of the Republican forces of the house, to produce figures to show that the present Democratic congress had actually appropriated more for general purposes than did tha preced ing Republican congress. Representative Cannon declared that out of the general total should be taken all expenditures made for the Panama canal. With such deduction, he said, the total appropriations for 1913 would be $990,656,143, as com pared with a total of $981,122,881 ap propriated for general purposes last year. Predictions that the government would face a heavy deficit at the. end 6f the year were made by Senator Warren and Representative Canr.cn Senator Warren said Tart and nis cabinet had carefully reduced esti mates to the lowest' figure. The ap propriations actually made are over $21,000,000 less than the estimates. AT THE THEATERS.

Phone 384 At a late hour this afternoon the members of the Democratic party council, coatless and collars melted to ti.e shirt bands, were tearing a num ber of existing state laws to shreds and placing themselves on record con cerning the platform -they will support at the election this fall. The party council did not convene until 3:30 o'clock this afternoon after the election of chairman, secretary end platform committee, immediately after the adjournment of the state central committee-this noon. Grant Harrington of Kansas City was elected temporary secretary at the opening of the party council. Ed ward Murphy of Leavenworth was made chairman. The following committee on plat form was selected: First district J. B. Chapman, Atch ison; George Human, Valley Falls. Second district Grant W. Harring ton, Kansas City; George Hodges, Olathe. Third district Alfred CJ. Wooster. Erie; F. M. Brady. Parsons. Fourth district Taylor Riddle, Marion; F. M. Patterson, Yates Cen. ter. Fifth district W. F. Grosser; Sa lina;John Winter, Manhattan.

After Inheritance law. The first action of the Democrats this afternoon was to chop huge chunks from the Republican Inherit ance tax law. The Democrats did not want it thought that they followed out the advice of Governor Stubbs and adopted certain amendments to the inheritance, but they carried out a long-felt want in the state, according to their Ideas made the limit of the tax $25,000 estate instead of the $5,000 estate as it stands The primary law as it stands today was another "goat of the Democratic party council. At a late hour the re vision of this law is not complete, tut it appears that the primary voting system will bear a new complexion when the Democrats finish it today. The Democrats want to give every voter a chance to vote, whether for a Democrat, Republican, Socialist, Pro hibitionist or independent. They have very little use for the law that makes it necessary for a man to affiliate with only one party at the primaries, The- followers of Woodrdow Wilson have a few ideas on the supreme court that they want the dear people to know. As it is the supreme court is composed of the members ot one party. The Democrats don't like 4t and they are not backward in their remarks. They will adopt in th ir afternoon's platform a plank that V.ill limit the membership to but four of one party the other three members of another political taitn. "We want to know more about the supreme court," said Taylor Riddle of Marion. Popnlar Senatorial Vote. rn the United States senatorial elec tion the Democrats win wse mis stand: Let the majority rule. The man who Is given the popular vote shall De the nominee of the party. No legisla-tii.-. districts for the Democrats. The last election brought this to their at tention. The war on nomination petitions was being waged by National Committee man Sapp and Taylor Riddle before the Darty council this afternoon. From the sentiment throughout the Auditor ium it is apparent that the Demo crats can see little advantage in pe titions. Other planks, including a good roads state control clause and many like pro gressive measures are being discuss ed. The Democrats are working together this afternoon they have forgotten the tilt between the HendersonMartin and Sam Graybill forces in the dhairman- Bhio fight this noon. They are all nail ing, sawing, planing and leveling the platform and little friction appears. JACKSOP TALK It Stirred First Session of Party Council. Cheers, Hoots and Hisses From Excited Audience. At 3:30 this afternoon the Repub lican party council had not recon vened. It was waiting for the report of the committee on platform. It was not expected that the council would convene until 4:30 and it is not likely to finish Its labors without a night session. Cor gressman Fred S.

The wise woman realizes this and takes precautions to preserve her health and strength through the pe riod of child bearing. She remains a pretty mother by avoiding as far as possible the suffering and dangers of such occasions. This every woman may do through the use of Mother's Friend, a remedy that has been so Ion? in use, and accomplished so much good, that it is in no sense an experi ment, but a preparation which always produces the best results. It is for external application and so penetrating in its nature as to thoroughly lubricate every muscle, nerve and tendon in volved during the period before baby comes. It aids nature by expanding the skin and tissues, relieves tender ness and soreness, and perfectly pre pares the system for natural and safe motherhood. Mother's Friend has been used and endorsed by thousands of mothers, and its use will prove a com fort and benefit to any woman in y ILQlOC'vA need of such a k remedy.

Other nominations, per haps, have been secured in a like man ner I do not deny that. I am told that Bryan's second nomination was Dy simtor methods. But that iu.uot the Republican way of doing things. "The action of the national conven tion in endorsing the work of the na ticnal committee has been the cause of disapproval. A question has been pre sented that is serious in its nature We Republican voters of Kansas ought to settle that difference here a-; nearly as possible. The work of that committee was so plain that we should not ap prove that nomination and should not pledge our candidates to support the nominee of that convention." It was evident that the Taft leaders were nervous. They were gathering in t.lVin? in low tones 111 lie rSruuv i .n.gV.r'g reoudiation of cunueruiiis i-1'-- the national convention.

Cries of "No,, no, never, not on your life, you bet hot." came from every place in the crowded room.

While the Regulars were hurling de nunciations at tne speaser, tne rro- gresslves were yelling for Taft and for J In Buying a Sewing tVlaclilne Tke Question to Decide Is which make of machines has the greatest number of good points about it to insura ease of operation and perfection of work.

"We should send our men to the electoral college free to exercise their own good Judgment," pleadel Jackson when he was able to resume his speech. Again Jackson was interrupt ed by questions as to whether he was advocating state's rights, but tne speaker paid little attention. "They tell you that our action will foreclose the rights of Kansas Republicans to vote for Taft. I don't believe it. They have already voted twice as to whether Taft has the right to control the elec toral vote in Kansas and both times have been overwhelmingly defeated. We are face to face with the question of whether we shall disfranchise two thirds or the Republican voters of Kansas or the other one-third.

Martin, Swanson and Culberson, after fighting bitterly tor tne pay mem J J- oiiiiiiiori in the general de ficiency bill, yielded to the urgings of their colleagues anu penmu senate to yield to the demands of the house and struck these claims from the bill. In return for this concession, however, they received the promise of support next winter, when the claim again will be presented for payment. With these old claims, amounting in all to $600,000, went the "extra month's pay" for congressional em ployees, which the senate demanded and which the house refused to give. In the last half hour of tho session, while President Taft waited in his spe cial room to sign the measures of the dying congress, an attempt was made to rush through a .special resolution, giving the employees the "extra month." but the house again block ed it. The president signed the general de ficiency bill at 4:10 o'clock, making certain the payment of the $1,500,000 deficiency in army pay. the $150,000 for the Gettysburg memorial celebra tion next year, the $350,000 for exten sion of customs work and scores of other important payments that hinged on the passage of the bill. The last measure to which the president put his pen was a bill disposing of lands in the Colville Indian reservation. No Quorum in Either House. The session "Just fizzled ort" in the senate, to use the words of one ob server. A comparative handful of senators occupied their seats and a call for a quorum in either the house or the senate would have forced a re turn of the embarrassing situation of last week. A wild outburst of applause greeted Speaker Clark's announcement of ad journment as his gavel fell in the house. The floor Immediately became an animated scene; members bidding To the Consumers of Natural Gas in Topeka and Oakland: We have been notified by the Kansas Natural Gas Company, that, owing lo the decreased production of natural gas at their wells, it will be impossible for them to furnish us with as much natural gas during the coming winter as was furnished last winter, when, as is well known, the supply at times was inadequate. This sompany is wholly dependent upon the Kansas Natural Gas Company for its supply of natural gas, and, when they fail to deliver it to us in sufficient quantities to meet the heating requirements of our consumers we are absolutely helpless to prevent poor service. In past seasons we have advised our consumers to have a supply of coal on hand to be used in emergencies, and not to depend upon natural gas for heating. We now advise all users of natural gas for heating purposes to be prepared to change to coal without delay or inconven ience. CONSUMERS LIGHT, HEAT POWER COMPANY. August 21, 1912. L. G.

Just before he announced the ad journment. Speaker Clark addressed the house. "As the hours of adjournment ap proaches," he said, "the speaker de sires to congratulate the house on hav ing reached the end of one of the longest and most laborious sessions on record. Congress has been actually in session more days since December than any congress that ever sat. The speaker desires to thank all members of the house on both sides of the aisle, which separates us politically, but not as friends or patriots, for the uniform courtesy with which they have treated the speaker. I hope that we will all reach home safely, all have enjoyable vacations and will all return, refresh ed and invigorated, for our work next winter."
