HOME EDITION MONDAY EVENING. TOPEKA, KANSAS. NOVEMBER 2, 1914. MONDAY EVENING. TWO CENTS TODAY ENDS THE SPIRITED 1914 CAMPAIGN THROUGHOUT KANSAS State Will Register Her Politi cal Choice at Polls Tomorrow. Indications of Heaviest Vote In an Off-Year Election. EACH PARTY OPTIMISTIC MOOD Victory Claimed by Democrats, Republicans and Moose. Many Innovations in Election in State Tuesday. Tonight the final word in the 1914 campaign will be. spoken, tomorrow Kansas will register her approval or rejection of the work of the Democratic state and national administration. In the election Tuesday, Kansas women will cast their first vote in a general state wide election, the new Massa chusetts ballot law will be given its first test in this state, a six cornered gubernatorial contest will be decided; and Kansas win name a United States senator, eight congressmen, 125 mem bers of the lower branch of the legisla ture, all state officers from governor to irrigation commissioner, and a full set of county officials. With the uncertainty as to the man ner in which the new voters will "line up' in tomorrow's fight and the added uncertainty as to results under a new ballot system, there will be little sleep for the Kansas politician until suffi cient returns have been received Tues day night on which to base at least a prediction as to the result in the state. There is every indication that the vote Tuesday will be the heaviest ever cast in an off year election in Kansas. Es timates place the vote at from 425,000 to 450.000. Registration lias Been Heavy. In all of the cities and larger towns of the state, the registration has been unusually heavy. Thousands of women have registered and are ready to go to the polls tomorrow to exercise their first right of suffrage in a state wide election. Estimates place the total vote' at 125,000 to 150,000. with about 300,000 male votes. The total male vote in the state is little more than 350,000. Granting a 20 per cent slump on ac count of an off year, about 300,000 men will likely vote Tuesday. The women vote, it is believed, will be 50 per cent of the male vote, although .some men f Continued on Pug Two.y indicts M:m Grand Jury Finds Bills Against New Haven Directors. Action Against Win.

Kaiser's Army Forces Its Way by Night Attacks. Berlin, Nov. 2. Information given out for the press, from official bead quarters. Is as follows: "The progress of the fighting in the north of France, is regarded here as highly favorable. The report given out yesterday with its news that the French had been thrown back across the Aisne. at a point near Solssons, and the operations already had been extended to the west front of Veadun, is regarded as the most favorable is sued for some time. "Letters from the front reaching Berlin describe the fighting between Nieuport and Tpres as probably the fiercest of the whole war. 'The Germans forced their way southward by repeated night attacks. The toll of death was great on both sides. "The fighting in Poland has not re commenced, but in Galicia according to special dispatches events would ap pear to be approaching a decisive mo ment.' A dispatch received here from Cracow says the Russians have been thrown back across the River San and ejected from Lezaisk whence the Aus trians punned them for a distance of four miles.

Boumania Awaits Action of the Other Balkan States. kz:h OECunjiTicn But War With Turkey Is Ac cepted by Allies. Area of Fighting Will Spread to Asia and Africa. London, Nov. 2. The week is like ly to see the crystallization of the sen timent in Italy and the Balkan states in one way or another, as regards Turkish, entrance into the European war. Italy, according to the British point of view, is at the cross-roads now and is hesitating. Today came a dispatch from Amsterdam, quoting the Berlin Anzeiger to the effect that Rumania would modify her attitude of neutrality provided the other Bal kan states remain out of the conflict. German papers announce officially that all the coast of Asiatic Turkey has been blocked by mines, thus- spreading to the east the danger which is confronting shipping in the west, i Although four days have passed since Turkish warships used their guns In the Black sea, neither Russia nor Great Britain had, up to noon to day, so far as was known in London, taken the' .offensive or even formally declared war against Turkey. The British press, as a whole, treats the situation as having reached a stage permitting no about-face by the gov ernment of the sultan. Thus while the struggle in France and Belgium remains undecided, Germany and Austria have at last acquired their first ally, barring the rebellion of the Boers in South Africa; and the area of .the fighting in the great war after ninety days of hostilities has spread over the borders of Asia into Egypt. Along the battle line in the west ern area, from the Swiss frontier to the Belgian coast, there has been no important change in territory for the fContinued on Page Two. OIUWATIVTOO Mount Vesuvius, In Eruption, Adds to' European Horrors. Stirring of Old Monster Causes Alarm in Italy. Naples, via Rome, Nov. 2. Mount Vesuvius is again in eruption and the Inhabitants in its vicinity have become greatly alarmed. On Sunday special prayers were made and a procession of people went to favored shrines as a repetition of the disaster of 1806 is feared. The activity of the volcano first manifested itself by deep detonations and rumblings. This was followed by gigantic columns of smoke and soon thereafter an abundant eruption of lava began. The last serious eruption of Mount Vesuvius occurred in the spring of 1906. Several villages were destroyed and the property loss was estimated at $20,000,000. About BOO persons were Jellied and fifty thousand were rendered homeless. Many nations, especially the United States, sent aid to the sufferers. There have been several eruptions since 1906, but all were of a minor character and no serious losses re sulted.

War has not yet u-irou turuHuiy aacjuw on XTiraey, nut the withdrawal from Constantinople of the ambassadors of the Triple en- w is regarded in Xjonaon as being equivalent to a signal for hostilities which Turkey has anticipated by a naval raid in the Black sea and It la penetrated into Egypt. Evidence accumulates that Turkav uiLcuuo iu iiruuwin noiy war. Am ple measudes, however, it la asserted, have been taken by Great Britain and Russia against this probability. It Is evident that the first trouble is ex pected to arise in Egypt, where It la said the Khedive intends to ask Great Britain for an explanation of her at-. titude towards .Turkey. Berlin claims that Turkey was forced to throw in her lot with Ger many because the ports recognised that an entente victory would mean Turkestan going to Russia: Arabia to England, and Syria to France. On the other hand, in the event of the defeat of the triple entente nations. Turkey was to be guaranteed territorially, to be given aid in conquering the Cau casus and Egypt and be given, per haps, something-more. The usual charges and denials are be ing made as to the responsibility for the first attack In the Black sea, but these are issued chiefly for consump- tion by the neutral countries, since the 1 inevitability of the conflict was recog nised by both sides. The principal actors are not greatly concerned over which nation fired the opening shot. Dragging Along.

French Believe They Suffer From Normal Depression, Assertion That Kaiser Has Put 'Forth Best Efforts. Paris. Nov. 2. The allied troops, ac- I cording to official information here, are still determinedly meeting the last vigorous offensive movement of the Germans in Belgium and in France. To date the French and English assert the balance of gains is in their favor and they look to see the failure of the German offensive In this section indi cated soon by a general and definite withdrawal of the enemy upon the right bank of the Tser. whiio it in admitted that the allies I have not regained all of the lost ground In the valley of the Tser their known gains in that region give every nope oi 1 a general success. In the vicinity of Nieuport and Dlx mude the enemy has been repulsed be yond the railroads, while the inunda tion effected between the Tser and the Nleuport-Dlxmude line has rendered the ground there so swampy that the German trenches have become unin habitable. This last fact is noted in the latest Belgian official statement Referring to the developments on the line from Dixmude to Tpres, the Bel gian statement is precise in its an nouncement that Poelkapelle has been surrounded by the allies. Poelkapelle is an important point as it is the cen ter of the network of communication of Routes and railroads between Dixmude. Tpres, Roulers and Thourout. The French assert there is more sig nificance in theannouncement that in one week 7,638 Germans have been tak en than appears on its face. They as sert when such a number can be gath ered in it indicates that the German troops are becoming worn out or are Buffering from normal depression.. Sanitary measures to avoid a possible epidemic are being taken on a large scale on the French line. Lieutenant Colonel Roussel, the mili tary critic, in reviewing the recent op erations, declare it Is impossible to say how long the war wUl last or whether Germany still can find, enough men to prolong the contests He believes he is able to affirm, however, that they have already made their strongest efforts.

What will happen after that cannot, it is said, be ac curately predicted, it is thought the quarantine will last at least a month. rr i-,l ni .nntin V iVI 't ernment inspectors, -who started out las night, have made a thorough ex amination of the live stock on farms in the infected states. There are 100 inspectors now work ing in Illinois,' Ohio, Indiana, Michi gan, Iowa, Missouri, nansas, Nebras ka and other states. The extent of the catastrophe to the trade may be roughly approximated by the fact that the business done at the stock yards, with its ramification into many other industries, is in the neighborhood of iSK onn onn a. dav. At the vards day there were 21,000 cattle, 30,000 hogs and 40,000 sheep. The slaugh-. tering of these, -it was said at the of fice of Morris Company, would require only two days. After that It is probable a large number of men will be laid off. The disinfection of the yards, one of the measures or dered by Dr. Bennett, will require a week or -ten days. Prices Gc Up. Although the big packers will be able to shift some of their war orders for tinned meats to plants in other cities, the supply is said to be bound to fall far below requirements, as it was stated Saturday that all plants were overwhelmed with European orders and that some of the contracts might be sublet to so called Independent firms. The live stock market took the tight ening of the quarantine in nervous fashion. The bulk, of the trade had been made before rumors of the order were confirmed, but with confirmation prices for cattle and sheep dropped sharply for the moment, but as sharp ly recovered. Hogs, which had sold 5 to 10 cents under Saturday, advanced to a level 15 to 20 cents higher than the previous close. F. E. White, a director of Armour Company, said there might be a flurry Jn the price of dressed meats but' he aid other "packing -centers would be able to care for the situation and no material advance need be feared. The closing of the yards was deter mined on when it was found that some cattle which had been in the local pens and shipped out to. be fattened had de veloped the malady on the farm. This faet was reported to Washington and In response Dr. Bennett was instructed to use his own Judgment. The quar antine order came as evidence of the gravity with which he views the situ ation. Dr. B. L, Norris was placed in charge of the quarantine, this falling within the special line of his duties in the bureau of animal industries. Order Ts Modified. Chicago, Nov. 2. The government quarrantine at the stock yards was modified this afternoon to permit the receipt and slaughter of cattle, hogs and sheep In this market. The effect of this is to place the situation where it was Saturday. Kansas City Is All Rrght. Kansas City, Nov. 2. Veterinary surgeons at the local stock yards as serted today that so far as they knew, there are no cases of hoof -and mouth disease in cattle in the Kansas City ter ritory. Live stock dealers are already preparing' to receive cattle diverted from Chicago to this market. As a re sult of the quarantine and somewhat smaller receipts feeding cattle here to day showed an increase in price of from 10 to 25 cents a hundred weight over Saturday's prices. The-local live stock men also asserted there -will be an Increased demanad here- for all classes of cattle especially for feeding. An increased, eastern demand for butcher cattle is expected also because many buyers wUl not- care to be both ered with the quarantine restrictions. GE(J.

War of Entire Nation. El Paso, Nov. 2. Emiliano Zapata, revolutionary chieftain of Southern Mexico, looms larger today on the Mexican horizon than he has during the last five years in which he persist ently has combated the central gov ernment of Mexico. Zapata for the first time is represented in a general council of chiefs. His delegates are present at the Aguas Calientes concil iation congress which continued its sessions today. His plan for the set tlement of Mexico's land problem, known as the plan of Alaya, calls for the confiscation of one-third of the land held by large holders which do main shall be distributed to the poor farmer who does not own- the soil which he tills. The scheme provides legal recourse for the land owner and for- the pen alty for confiscation of the remaining two-thirds should he refuse to abide by the court findings. Promotion for Villa. Mexico City, Nov. 2. A dispatch received here from Ajguas Calientes says the delegates to the conference In voting on the resignations of Gen erals Villa and Carranza, accept that of Carranza unconditionally and that of Villa so as to mean his retirement from command of the northern divi sion alone. It was agreed to abolish all military divisions and to place all the troops the nation under command of a secretary of war to be named by the convention. The dispatch says Villa is to be given this position. The con vention will how proceed to make, a provisional president to succeed Car ranza. TODAY ENDS CAMPAIGN Continued from Page One. have predicted as low as 35 or 40 per cent. The Republicans are fighting for ev ery foot of ground in the state. With a three cornered fight among the Re publicans, Democrats and Progressives, the result of the contest is decidedly uncertain. Senatorial Uncertainty. There is much uncertainty concern ing the senatorial contest. Republi cans admit that the Curtis fight will be one of their hardest battles, with the Capper fight equally uncertain. A fight will be made, of course, to save both of these men. But with the gains that Murdock and Allen have apparently made in the closing weeks of the campaign, the fight for both governor and United States sen ator is admittedly close and doubtful. It is probable that the Republicans will lose at least one district the Eighth That district has been pre sided over since its creation by Victor Murdock. Now, in a bitter three handed fight among Republicans, Democrats and Progressives, it is generally believed that the Democrats have the better chance in the district and that Judge A. W. Ayers of Wich ita will probably succeed Murdock in Washington. Recover In Fifth. In the Fifth district, however, the Republicans apparently have a chance to recover their lost ground. They have earnest hopes of defeating Con gressman Guy T. Helvering with the election of W. A. Caldernead, former dean of the Kansas congressional del-J egaiion.. ine ugni, nowever, bcciub close and both sides are claiming suc cess. Democrats -insist they wUl retain their hold in the Second, Fourth, Sixth and Seventh districts, although in the Sixth-district, at least,' the fight may be quite close. The Progressives claim that they have a chance to win in the Eighth and are making a stub born fight for C. L. Davidson of Wich ita. Both Democrats and Republi cans are uncertain as to the complex ion of the next legislature and the candidacies of the men who aspire to sit in the lower house next winter have received but little thought in the bit ter state-wide campaign. In the judgment of a some of the wisest' observers results of the sena torial and', gubernatorial contests will not be known for several days. -r.--What' WUl-Women Bo? What will the Women ,do?

All reports seem to agree that the tide of battle in this section is flowing against the Germans, but it is felt in London that it will take some time to decide whether they must abandon their attempt to reach Calais, to ac complish which they already have paid to dearly.

This same inunda-i tion, British observers declare, will make it exceedingly difficult for the Germans to remove their heavy guns; should a general retirement become necessary. Assuming that Turkey's casting in of her lot with Germany is an accom plished fact, the British press admits that the cruisers Goeben and Breslau are a serious menace, as Russia has nothing to compare with them in speed and equipment. As to the Turkish arm, formidable as it is in size, the opinion is expressed here that it will not be an efficient fighting machine under modern conditions, which re quire the latest types of arms. The Campaign In Egypt. Concerning the" campaign in Egypt, England feels that in Lord Kitchener she has just the man to meet the situ ation for no. European perhaps has a better knowledge of the country than he. If the reports that the-Turkish in vasion of Egypt is well under way are true picturesque forces mounted on camels -and horses, probably already have crossed .the frontier. Furthermore two Turkish army corps are said to be moving in the direction of the frontier. Turkey, it. is argued in London, will endeavor to accomplish .three things first, the invasion of Egypt; second, the blockading of the Sues canal, and third, the stirring up of a Holy war among the seventy million Mohamme dans in India as well as among those religionists in Egypt. It is the last contingency which England regards with the most concern, although noth ing has developed so far to indicate that the Mohammedans have been con vinced in large bodies anywhere, that their religion is involved.

Washburn Out of Form. On the other hand, the Ichabods could not have drawn an off card to a hob-tailed straight without having fluked it to the table face upward. They went into the game with what appeared to be a listless, indifferent confidence, and when they finally woke up at the end of the second period the Teachers had secured two touchdowns and were sure enough of their strength to meet every subse quent emergency. The Washburn players wanted to win badly enough, but in attempting to husband their strenzth for next Saturday's game with K. U.. they made poor estimates of the j prowess of the Hargtss men. No one who knows the personnel of the Wash- bum eleven thinks for a moment that ability to win; but the men simply re fused to pay the price, neglected to use 3 of the luck breaks.

oaiiiuct lAmh Burkhardt L. T Sherdv rc.vir. McCarroU L.E Reilly Menxe Q. B Barry," Babbitt t Grunn .R. H. Green Devitt, S f Lewis L. H L. Lanrhnir (By Clug.) Two football teams were greatly surprised in Emporia last Saturday. The Ichabods were surprised at their big defeat and the Normal men at their big --ictory. But, taking every thing into consideration, it was a pretty cheesy game, of the German variety. Neither team played first class football, although the Teachers showed up to a little better advan tage and had an airtight corner on luck. Of the whole Ichabod squad, Sam Stewart, the Whitcomb brothers and Myers were the only ones who were in anything like the form they should have been. Bearg played brilliant ball by spurts, as did Trobert. Beals and Elbe. From beginning to end there was a lack of headwork in the use of the forward pass; Interference when there was any seemed to hinder in place of helping the man with" the ball on several occasions, and the Normals averaged getting off their plays at least a minute quicker than Washburn did. It is true many of the men were not in a physical condition, among them being Trobert, Beals, Robert Whitcomb and a. few more. Also, it is true- that the Normals played men who are talcing freshman work and whrere in the high school last year, which was generally thought would not be done. Several members of the Normal team are full-fledged freshmen, and look it; but Coach Hargtss explained to his own satisfac tion that they took some work in the freshman classes last year, or were resident members of the high school, it is not remembered which. However, an excuse in football is like an excuse in most anything else it doesn't wipe out mistakes or cover up shortcomings; and the Ichabods should thank their stars that the game does not count in the Kansas Conference championship. If Wash burn's players will acknowledge to themselves how limberger they were and make an earnest- effort to ampu tate this rottenness, it win prove a blessing in disguise. As has been said in this column before, there is no question about the ability of the mem bers of "Crip" Gray's team. Bnt the fact that the men can and don't makes it all the more intolerable. It is not what a man can do that counts, but what he does do. Of the Normal team. Hartwig. Lad ner and Scott played consistently good ball, but Hargiss' men also seemed to be a little timid about playing good ball consistently.' The score was big ger than I expected," was Mr. Har giss only statement after the game. Here is a little exclusive tip on next Saturday's Washburn-K. U- gamer The Ichabods will go Into the fray with a strength they have not had before this season. They will spring two big surprises one in the actual playing of the game and one- in the final score. Also, they win get sweet revenge on their home town knock ers, and unless some ill fortune over takes them in the meantime will make last Saturday's K. tJ.-Oklahoma game look like a five cent moving pic ture show by the side of a Mariowe- i Sothern Shakespearean production All who donbt these statements are cordially invited to attend next Satur day afternoon on Washburn field and see for 'themselves. The game will be called at 2:3P keen. This is the biggest game or Washburn's entire schedule and man? think that the Ichabods didnt try tc win at Emporia last Saturday becaus' they wanted to save themselves for K. U. The only man seriously injured at Em porta was Barrett, who got hi: nose cracked. However. Barrett sey- he could play against K. IT. without r smetier. ana wax ra uw bihtil uu u sures a game worth seeing. Advance tickets for this game wi be on sale at the business office of tb State Journal Tuesday morning, an all who want choice seats are advise to make early reservations. Ever loyal Topekan should attend, and a' who do are named to keep their weatb er eyes peeled Tor the big surprise? No charge for automobiles, bat eae! occupant must have a one dollar gen eral admission ticket. Reserved seats are $1-50. Topekans who saw the K. TJ.-Oklahoma game said there wag a thrill for every penny they paid ta get by the gate. Undonbtedy it- waa a grar game, and It is to be regretted that the Jays did not squeeze another point out of the Sooner. Reports from Corombua that the Tigers and Aggies about soch another affair aswas the Washbum-Normal game. However. Lthe Aggies acquitted themselves with credit asm were simply out- The victory of Nebraska over the is. v. race praetleaUy j It is understood thsre will be a number' of Nebraska scoots in Topeka, next Saturday to watch Washbura wallop the Wheaton men. If Washburn does this and K. U. beats Nebraska. Kansas bugs should an reel satisfied with life. Here's hoping.- j The hopes of another season were! blasted last Saturday for westera fol- lowers of the pigskin when Michigan failed to humble the Harvard Crim sons. Yost's men made a strong fight, and it is only fair to say that had Har- vard been the invader the result might have been different. 1 The HaskeU Indians also found that they had bitten off more than they could chew when they tackled Notre Dame. Conceding that every dog has -his day, the west must stiil be on the waiting list. Francis Willard, who is making a name for himself on the Michigan squad this season, may be expected to be on the big "varsity in a season or tw if be continues. There is no donbt but that he comes by his football in stinct honestly on his father's aide of tne Douse at any rate. Coach 'Rn1r tiiti w)iaa1 away with themselves Saturday and should give the Lincoln highs a run for their money Thanksgiving if they keep their present form. St Marys has "done come back." The Catholic boys humbled the Mis sourians with Uttle trouble and all teams having games with them are hereby warned to be prepared for sur prises. Saturday Football Results. Topeka H. 8. 47.

If Turkey gets into the war now it will probably be done to a turn and ready for carving by Thanksgiving Day. Incidentally, the war seems to have struggled along pretty well on its frightful course without any particular name for it having been agreed upon. More bitter medicine for the pessi mists. E. H. Gary, of steel fame, de clares that the opportunity for success and progress in this country is greater than ever before. Maybe that Chicago firm which re fuses to employ a stenographer unless she be red headed is made up of super stitious gentlemen who use white horses on their delivery wagons. With Turkey on the side of, Ger many and Austria, the Teutons can. scarcely point the finger of scorn at the Allies again because of the com pany that the latter keep. So much rioting and flst-flghting is going on among the. delegates to the Mexican peace convention, that another and stronger body should be organized to preserve the peace cmong them. Villa's alliance -with-,. Zapata at the Aguas Calientes peace conference may indicate that he has not outgrown his bandit ways and prove again that birds, of a feather will flock together. There Is no doubt about the bandit tendencies of Zapata.

In the parlance of the Indians it is a mistake to refer to the present spell of delightfully warm weather as In dian summer. The real Indian sum mer does not come until after a ''squaw" winter. And the latter con sists of a brief cold snap that arrives with the first snow of the year. Carranza is following in the foot steps of Huerta n ignoring the com munications that the United States sees fit to send him. And the chances are good that he will follow In the footsteps of Huerta out of Mexico. But his pocketbook won't be nearly so well filled. Huerta didn't leave much. In Anally getting into the war, Turkey has practically signed her own death warrant if the forces of England, France and Russia are eventually. vIct tOrious, and this seems to be as in evitable as it did on the day the war began. Germany and Austria have been fighting for three months now and have practically gotten nowhere. An Italian Inventor has perfected an over-the-ocean telephone system, which he declares will make an exchange of. talk between this country and Europe ag easy as It now is between New York and Baltimore,-' for instance. But of what use will such a telephone system be after the war is over? If it is con tinued for long on its present scale there won't be many left in Europe to talk with, and those that are won't have the price to pay the necessarily expensive tolls for such telephoning. As Dr.' Guild i- tersely and forcefully put it at a recent meeting of the Ro tary club, merely saying .that Topeka will be the finest city In the world will not make It so. There is work to be done even to get within striking dis tance of that mark. And an encour aging sign is that the people of the city recognize that fact, and many of them are more than willing to put their shoulders to the wheel. With all Tope kans pulling together, Topeka will grow and develop to proportions commen surate with Its advantages and oppor tunities. j And the wise farmer will go into the business of raising as many horses as possible as a side line. It may not be generally appreciated, but- it is a fact, nonetheless, that the great central western farming section' of this coun try is being rapidly stripped of its horses to meet the demands of the Buropean belligerents, whose agents In the horse markets in this territory are paying top prices for almost anything that looks like a 'horse. This means that' horses hereabouts are going to be worth some real money two or three vaers from now. THOSE AMENDMENTS. When the voter goes to the polls tomorrow he will be given a separate ballot upon which to vote for or against two proposed amendments to the Kansas constitution. If a voter has any doubt in his mind he should vote against both of these amendments. It is a pretty good general endorse ment of the constitution of the state of Kansas when a legislature can find only two amendments to propose. As many as three may be offered at one time. The first amendment has been well named the "fake" recall proposition. It proposes to put percentages in the constitution 10. IS and 25. It reminds one of 10-20-30 cheap performances. And this proposed recall proposition is a cheap performance. If you are against the recall you should vote against the amendment on general principles. If you favor the recall you should vote against It as an absurd method of recall. The other amendment, a radical one, makes a fundamental and most important change. The constitution now provides for "a uniform and equal rate of assess ment and taxation." This amend ment proposes to overturn uniformity and equality and put the whole im portant taxation problem on the ba sis of what la termed "an equitable system," "reasonable exemption," "classification as far as their differ ences justify," and taxation upon in tangible property, privilege, occupa tions, franchises and incomes. It grants powers to a legislature and commissions almost unlimited, powers which are susceptible of great injustice and abuse. Our whole method of taxation is up set and remodeled, for what the friends of the amendment assert in the main is, to bring out concealed properties that now escape taxation. This con cealed property is listed as stocks, bonds, notes and other concealed se curities. There ought to be some method of taxing notes, bonds and other securi ties than by dragging in questionable and dangerous matters connected with the taxation of property, which should be uniform and equal as now provided by the constitution other than by the proposed new amendment, subject to the varied interpretations of "equit able," "Justification," and "reason able," and which would permit tax making bodies to Impose one tax upon a real estate man, another tax upon a doctor, another upon a farmer, and so on indefinitely. The voter will be safe in voting against both of these amendments. A good way to get inequitable and unjust taxation is to do away with equality and uniformity before the law and that is what the amendment plainly proposes. A WORD TO YOU! Sit down by your- own little fireside where you are king and then think, urges John A. Sleicher In Leslie's, and he continues: Go back ten or twelve years in your thoughts. During all the intervening time you have heard the gospel of unrest. Tou have been told that you have been trodden under foot, that the trusts were increasing the cost of liv ing, monopoly driving the little man out of business, the railroads ruling state and nation and the courts dis criminating between the poor and the rich. Is it so? Are things any better now than they were for you ten or twelve years ago? Let us see: With all the palaces of peace and the agreements to submit differences to arbitration, the greatest war the world has ever known is going on. With more churches than have ever been built before, sin continues to abound. With millions contributed for the erection of libraries with a free hand and no place so small but that it has the latest books for any reader who may apply, widespread ignorance con tinues. In an age when the teaching of morality is heard in every church and schoolroom, in magazine and newspa per, vice continues to exist and white slavery flourishes as never before. With more laws on the statute books than were ever enacted before, the law breaker is still in evidence in Increasing numbers. With reformatory societies, great and small, generously supported and carefully supervised, we have more jails and prisons, with a larger num ber of inmates than ever. With state and nation furnishing liberal .pensions, 'with charitable so cieties reaching every class, the poor are still with us as they will' be al ways. With the splendid advance in medi cal science and surgical skill, sickness prevails, disease makes Its inroads. and the death roll grows longer. Why? We cannot change human nature. Men and women will be what they are and always have been the victims of their passions, their preju dices, their conceits, envies and ha treds. Heredity and environment will still exert their- potent influence. The Good will outbalance the Evil, but the Evil will exist still. Well-meaning, book-taught theo rists who would reform society as they find it, will fail in their task now, as they 'have always failed, unless they recognise the fact that man must be treated as a victim of hla weak' nesa, inborn and .Ineradicable.. No laws will make him perfect; no new distribution of property will make every one rich and comfortable; no commandment will abolish sin and no medicine will cure all Ills. Let us begin with this admission and address ourselves frankly to. the" task of lifting the burdens of all who suffer, but let as not delude ourselves into the belief that man can be made different from what ha la excepting' by the same power, of that Infinite Cre ator, that gave him being and that perpetuates existence. Are you thinking of these things? A lot of wise ones are. Journal Entries Turning over a new leaf is among the easiest things humans do. Is there such a thing as a mortal who is not susceptible to flattery?

It seems as easy for some people to get out of trouble as it does for others to get into It. A man with an ax to grind; is not particular as to who. he can get to turn the grindstone.

As a matter of fact, the, world would be a monotonous place for most folk were it not tor the trouble that's In it. I Jdyh aw Iter Jo ts When a pretty girl, ha good, hard sense, it indicate to the Sedgwick Pantagraph, that she ha an uncom monly sensible mother.

Does anything make you .so mad. asks the Minneapolis Better-Way, as to see some boob get up from the sup per table, then-calmly talk -out his pocketknife and Start picking his teeth? A man's work about keeping house consists mostly of emptying the drips from the ice box, observes the Jewell County Monitor. But this will soon be substituted by bis having to take care of the furnace. It should not longer be necessary to warn folks against the campaign charge circulated on the eve of an elec tion, urges the Marion Record. The man or party that indulges in that sort of tactics should be swatted with a mighty swat. A year's subscription is offered 1 by the Potter Kansan for the best solu tion for the following problem: "If it takes a 4-montha-old woodpecker, with a rubber bill. 9 month and 13 days to pick a hole through a cypress log that is big enough to make 7 shingles and it takes 165 shingles to make a bundle worth 93 cents, how long will it take a cross-eyed grasshopper, with a cork leg, to kick all the seeds out of a dill pickle?" t a News from Hogwallow.'in- the Troy Chief: Miss Rosyola was overcome with emotion one day last week while composing sentimental poems.

Globe Sights BT THE ATCHISON OLOBB. No town will do all bad judgment de mands of it. A boy who has several bosses is usually a bad boy. A reporter can lose a friend quicker than any other person. Next to chasing a cat. a town dog pre fers to whip a country dog. It Is probably called pin money because the husband gets stuck for it. When a poet can't sell his poems he reads 'em on the lecture platform. The most needless worry is that of wives who fear their husbands may be stolen. Ask a man how his neighbors are and he will reply that some of them are crazy. Cold feet may also be credited with sav ing considerable money from time to time. Next to the Congressional Record or a lodge paper, a life insurance policy is the dullest reading. A reform school graduate may also be commended for not bragging about his dear old Alma Mater. A life insurance agent can almost con vince a man he should be glad to die and help his family. There are a lot of chores around the most modern house which- every woman thinks a man should do. An old-fashioned woman spends what Httle spare time Bhe may have worrying for fear someone will take cold.

The doctor Isn't apt to give up a patient when he is well healed. The fact that talk is cheap may be what makes it so expensive in the end.- Every man must have a home of his own before he can fully appreciate his club. A man can't succeed even as an archi tect who restricts himself to castles in the air. Most of us are quick enough to take advantage of opportunities to do the things we shouldn't. Many a man is tied to his wife's apron strings, and many a girl has too many strings to her beau. No. Maude, dear; we doubt if even the suffragettes would admit that they are all old enough to vote. Just because a woman realises that green is becoming to her is no reason why she should be green with envy.

Winona sat on the edge of a stream' shaking salt over -crisp green branches of watercress the first time George Madison saw her. He had come there to paint and to get away from his sister's many chat tering girl friends, who seemed always to be occupying porch and lawn and pergola at home. He was trying to get his picture in his vision, and was squinting and otherwise distorting his face when he saw her drop into his canvas, as it were. He was making bits of scen ery to frame for a frieze In his study, and he would not in the least have minded having the girl in the picture if he could be -sure she -would come again and again' until he had finished. But to have her settle herself down for the time being perhaps never to return again for a sitting was rather disconcerting to the artist. From his distance he -could not tell whether or not she were pretty. She seemed mere ly to be a girl who was there for the purpose of gathering watercress from the edge of the stream. Somehow or other, as young Madi son began to .sketch in the contour of the landscape and to work in bits here and there, the girl seemed a necessary touch, and he let her take her place on his canvas almost without mean ing to. "If I don't like It tomorrow," he assured himself, 'I'll obliterate her." By the time the light was no' longer desirable and the girl had gone the artist began to wish he might ex pect to find his model there on the following day. A pouring rain prevented the artist from; going to -paint, on 1 the next day, but bright and early on the third morning he wended his way to the hilltop with- palette and easel" and all necessary paraphernalia. He had hardly begun to mix' his colors when the same girl in the same dreg and' with the same salt-shaker in her band took bW seat on the edge of the .stream aijdi began to pick and eat watercress, s f George Madison laughed to himself. It was almost weird to think thAt she' should have returned, and he was sure, she had not seen. him. Therefore he conld not ac count .for her presence. He worked fast and his 'pictures grew wonder fully '.'udder his '-enthusiastic touch. And, as before, tne girl finished her apparently satisfying meal and betook herself off by wa$r of the winding creek -path. After that the artist did not paint with such enthusiasm. "If she's there gain I'll say she's nutty," he said inelegantly to himself as he folded his eaKel. But she was there; and she con sumed quantities f .watercress and hummed and see tried content to be alive. The artist .began to be very curious about her4 If she had been picking the watercress and carrying it home in a basket it would not have seemed so odd, -but to come there day after day and -consume such quant ities of it was certainly the act of an eccentric person. He began to wish She would notice him, and yet he could not move near er and get the same picture on his canvas. He believed as he looked at his nearly completed picture that it was the best thing he had done yet and the girl in her. colorful frock and golden masses of hair sitting gracefully- on the edge of the stream was not the least of it. He flattered him self that it was not unlike a Henner, though he had been true to the gold of the girl's own hair Instead of try ing to get the Titian red of the fa mous artist's girls' tresses. There was hardly an excuse left for the young man to go again to. paint on his canvas It was finished. But he could not resist the- desire to seek his place again and see if perhaps something might not draw the girl's attention away from the stream. When he arrived he looked down and there, complacently munching the fresh grass at the stream's edge, stood an old cow. The girl, stood nearby, evi dently afraid to sit-down. She looked about her as If fo help -and her' eye fell on George -Madison well up on the hillside.-beyond..,, t As" if she had -summoned him, he ran down the bank-, andi picked up a stick. "Shall I chase her away?" he asked. Winona smiled gratefully. "Oh I wish you, would." she said.;. The cow moved on with a little per suasion and the artist -assured Winona that she was perfectly harmless. "Nevertheless,, I wouldn't have the courage' to sit ..down peacefully- while a cow stood near -me," the girl ad mitted.! "And I must have watercress." "Are you do you: like it so much?" George' asked. "Ifg a cure.", the -girl said. "A cure?" the man asked.' still more mystified. -Had be- painted the pic ture of a' lunatic, he wondered,' a girl who would be slightly demented? He never had "heard of watercress be ing a cure tor anything. "Ye-r-it' is a. .Trench cure for bron chial or pulmonary, weakness, and I was not sure that I had not one of them, so I am taking the precaution of, not letting anything get a hold on me. I must have health." she declared earnestly. "Tou look as if you enjoyed it now," the artist could. not help sarins; -a his eyes dwelt on the wonderful fair ness of her skin. "I am perfectly well now. I think.' the girl went on. "but it is due. I am sure, to the fact that I have diligently followed the advice of this old Frencn physician whom I met in Normandy. I have eaten- watercress to the exclu sion of everthing else, a. 1 In order to have it fresh and to be out of doors a much a possible, I have come here for it every day and made my meals of it. I live only a mile from the stream," she added. "And does it satisfy you?" George asked with wonder. "Perfectly: a long as I do not see the family at home sitting down to tempting meals of other things. That another reason why I come here to have solitary feasts of this." "And another reason I think is Fate." the young artist dared to say. What the girl thought of his remark she did not betray, but George Madison knew that it wa Fate, nevertheless. that had sent Winona across hi path. And so it proved to be.

Having nothing to say don't keep some people from talking. Why is H that a big woman always tahes a small man seriously? Perhaps a rolling stone gathers no moss because it isn't on the level. man may be lonesome because other men, are particular about their associates. But young fool is not excusable on the ground that there is no fool like an old fool. The average married man considers his wife's relatives about as important as empty tomato cans.

My son, there are two things you should never borrow money or trouble, especial ly trouble. The first woman handed the first man an apple, but her daughtera have been handing men lemons ever since.

November 7, mati nee and night, direct from its second year at the Cohan theater. New York, has caused more hearty, healthy laughter than any other play in the history of the stage. This simple, homely, humorous tale of the cloak trade firm whse partners quarrel violently over details but would give their lives for each other is wonderful ly human. "Hanky-Panky." "Hanky-panky,' the big Lew Fields production that is to be the attraction at the Grand theater on Friday, No vember 6, has tactratber proud record of being one of jjtwirery few survivors of a tour through the cotton country of the south Atlantic states. More than half of the plays that started out bravely into that territory after the be ginning of the European war, had to Fannie Stedman In Hanky-Panky at Grand Friday. turn back toward New York or "go broke" even before the most distress ed part of the country was reached. "Hanky-Panky," however, kept on, wondering, if the truth must be told, whether It, too, might not have to go back to Broadway.

THE TOPEHA DAILY CTATO JCTCIIAIr-IIO VZ Z. VlIIITCr ITOVZi: CRISIS JNr.jEXICO Aguas Calientes Conyention Is Courting More Trouble. .Funston's Withdrawal From Vera Crux. May Be Demanded. fuo v,wm POLITICS Aguilar May Attack American Troops at Any Time. Army and Nayy Is Prepared for Any Emergency. J Washington, Nov. 2. The war de partment finds itself facing a new -crisis in Mexico. Word conveyed to this department within the last twenty-four hours reveals an acute situa tion that may demand an immediate reinforcement "of troops under the 'command of General Funston at Vera Crua. The leaders oT the Villa and Car ranza forces who are fighting for su premacy in the Aguas Calientes con vention are Insisting that United States soldiers be withdrawn from Mexico. They are getting irritated over the stern supervision of Mexican affair .undertaken by this govern ment. An official of the war department admitted secretly that with neither Villa nor Carranza willing to assure the United States that its citizens will be protected and the Aguas Calientes convention ignoring the matter a -Juncture has arisen that may lead to serious trouble. The United States will not withdraw Its troops unless a sufficient Guaran tee of protection by the Mexican leaders or by the convention which is to decide their supremacy. If the 'Mexicans, as now seems likely, main tain their stubborn attitude a clash of the two governments is anticipated within a week's time. An Attack Likely. While reports published in New York by the Army and Navy Journal that the United States government has already started to move troops to re inforce General Funston were de clared here today to be inaccurate, it was frankly stated that this govern ment is ready to act upon word from Funston that such a move is neces sary. The truth is that an attack upon Funston is expected most any day. If It comes the government will hurry enough troops to make -a stout resist ance. Reports have constantly come to the war department that there is al ways danger that Funston may be at tacked. The war officials have some times got them from Funston himself. At the same time Funston has not said a word within the past month to intimate that he is afraid to face any attack. It is learned from a private source that General Funston did, when the rumors were first current here, ask that an additional regiment be sent to him and he mentioned the Porto Ricari" regiment," "a Spanish speaking command. Navy Is--Prepared. Navy officials point out that possibly expecting a serious "contingency, the navy department has not ordered all the vessels away from Vera Cruz. Nominally, a division of four ships is kept there. Within the past few days it was necessary to order away the Kansas to Haiti. Should the Aguas Calientes conven tion prove, untractable and take it into Its head seriously to try and force Funston out of Vera Cruz there will be no alternative! but to send addi tional ships to Vera CrUz, to restore the ships to the west coast and to in crease the cavalry regiments on the border. War department officials admit that w E. A. AT the eleventh hour it is late to make new vote3. I do claim to know the detail of the treasurer'3 office, and there is a vast' amount of it to know. I have been learning it for three years and a half and am engaged with it now. When you go tp pay your taxes you want to find a man behind the counter who will attend to your wants as cheerfully as if he were behind a counter in a store. Finally, let me say that I have earnestly tried to get ready for advancement. Advertising my campaign is distasteful, but it is very necessary. For several months you have heard my applica tion focyour vote and in the past three years thousands of you have met me in the treasurer's office. You know me now about as well as you will ever know an average candidate. Yours truly, Edvin A. Campbell, t "T" RepubBcan Nominee for GciHity Treasurer Advertisement. officers are going to their regiments on the border, but they say that these trips are "only in accordance with orders-, issued a-year ago" that they should return to their own regiments, but .it has also been stated that no of ficers are to get vacations.

The state department appears to fear that the Mexican convention will no so far, in order to play Mexican politics, as to demand the withdrawal of Fun ston and that this will bring on a clash between General Aguilar and his 6,000 troops with the 6,000 troops of General Funston. GOETUALS PLEASED. Work of Clearing Culebra Cut Fin ished in Record Time. Washington, Nov. 2. The removal within the short period of five days of the enormous mass of earth and rock which slid into the Culebra cut in the Panama canal on the night of October 14, is regarded as a remark able feat and Governor Goethals was greatly pleased with the results ac complished, according to the advices received here. Three quarters of a million cubic yards of earth and rock slowly slipped into the canal prism that night, blocking the waterway for almost half a mile and closing the canal 'completely for a thousand feet to the passage of vessels larger than towboats. The great slide was attacked with every -available dredge almost instant ly. Two of the giant dredges were working south of Gold Hill and very near the slide and one of these which digs up fifteen cartloads of dirt at every thrust began work on mass while it was still in motion. The slide was attacked from every angle, even a distant suction dredge being connected by pipe line to take part in the work and by noon October 20 the channel was sufficiently cleared to allow the passage of seven vessels which had been delayed at the south end of the canal. At last accounts no further earth movement was indicated in the cut, but practically all of the mass involved in the slide of October 14 and 15 remained to be dredged from the prism outside of the channel proper, and this work may cause further motion in the mass.

Mrs. Julia Krususky, who was" brought back to St- Louis today with 4-year-old Vir ginia' Gerhard with whom she disap peared last Monday, attempted to es cape with the child today from a Mis souri, Kansas Texas train on which she was being brought to St. Louis. The attempt was made at 2 o'clock this morning when the train reached Boonville, Mo. One of the train crew standing on the platform, saw the child lowered from the window of a sleeping car. Then he saw a woman climb from the window, take the child in her arms and flee in the darkness. The trainman notified Manton Davis, at torney for the child's father, who was on the train with the father and a de tective, and Davis and the detective set out in pursuit. They found the nurse and the child in a wheat field a hun dred yards from the station. The nurse and child were taken back to the train and brought to St. Louis. where the nurse was locked up and the child taken to the home of its father, Harry H. Gerhard. The nurse and child had been found Saturday at Muskogee, Okla. When Davis and the detective tound the nurse and child; the child said: "Is the train going to burn up? The nurse told me the train 1 t out ot the winaow." The nurse today said she did not care what became of her, as .she would rather die than be separated from the child. Harry H. Gerhard, father of the child, has not decided whether he would prosecute the nurse. JOS INTO CROWD. La Follette Cuts Up Strange Antics on the Stomp.
