All Firemen and Oilers, Except Two, Out, Says Bansch. PLACES FILLED PHOMPTLY Unions Keport Seven Engine Failures on Santa Fe Line. "Strike Cannot Continue Much Longer," Declares Union Head. Statements from local union offi cials and from the officials of the Santa Fe disagree as to the number of stationary engineers, firemen and oil ers who responded to the strike order in Topeka, effective at S o'clock this morning. Of eight stationary engineers em ployed at the Santa Fe shops, one left tne companjrs service in response to the strike order, and of eighteen fire men and oilers, seven went out, ac cording to a statement made this morning by W. D. Deveny, shopi su perintendent. The places made vacant by those who quit were promptly filled, Deveny said. F. W. Rausch, manager of pub licity for the striking shop crafts said today that it was understood by the executive committee of the strikers that all the firemen and oilers walked out with the exception of two, and that the two did not report for work this morning. Much Mi mndt-rwtajiding. There has been much misunder standing on the part of the public, as to tne stationary engineers, and the firemen and oilers. These workmen have been confused in -the public mind, it is indicated in inquiries wnicn nave been received at the of rice of The State Journal, with the locomotive engineers and firemen. members of the Big Four Brother- nooa or Trainmen. As a matter ef fact the strike order of this morning applied, only to eta- uonary engineers, nreraen and oilers who are employed in the various shops and plants of the company, and no not operate on railroad trains. There seems to be some misunder standing, however, as to Just what engineers are included in the new strike, because it is said that some of tnem employed in the shops here come under the classification of elec tricians. Statement by Ranscn. Mr. Rausch issued the following sattement this afternoon concerning the two strikes and conditions in gen eral: Promptly at 8 a. m. this morning the firemen and oilers in the four power bouses at tbe shops walked off the Job and came up to headquarters and registered and re ported that they were out practically It JO per cent. They also reported that in the past two weeks more than five times the ordinary amount of coal was used in the two plants furnishing power to the planing mill. This was due to the fact that under ordinary circumstances these planing mills furnish enough shavings, sawdust and scrap material as sufficient fuel for their own power. They also report that all ef forts will be made to keep up steam enough in the main power plant to blow tbe big whistle, thereby making the public believe that their walkout was ineffective as far as their walkout was concerned. It was reported to tbe executive -committee this morning that since the United States railroad labor board had issued' a decision to the effect that no one class of employes would be required to do tbe work of another class of employes who is out on strike. The company officials are avoiding this decision by intimidating the clerks iu the motive power building by informing them that there is going to be a reduction in forces in th.s particular office In which tbey are working and suggesting to theia that if tbey wish to stay in tbe service of the company that they can give them em ployment at otber points or in tbe local shops. One clerk, whoirefuaed to go into tbe shops, was discharged. This happened before the labor board lasued its decision. However, tbe discharge of this clerk had Its effect, as it is either take what we have or get for home. uur ooservution men in tne rreignt ear department reported tbst of a total of one hundred and seventy-two helpers employed in that department, one hundred and fifty five were negroes.

This may be due. Pain ter believes, to the flushing of the mains some weeks ago. He points out that mud and sedi ment collected in the bottoms of the mains for years, and hardened there so that when the mains were flushed this summer, it could not be dis lodged. The soft slush and mud over it a. was carried out by the flushing operations, and the hard crus tat ions remained. Now the soft water ia acting upon the bard accumulations of years in the mains, and is breaking them up. which causes the sediment to be found in the water. As rapidly as the men of the de partment x can get to these affected areas, they are being flushed again. But there is nothing that can be done to remove the 'alkali discoloration. The discoloration disappears when the water is permitted to settle. FREE STATERS 6TILL GAIN. Nearly 500 Rebel Prisoners Taken in Irish Weefc-End Fighting. Dublin, July 17.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL MONDAY EVENING, JULY 17, 1922 TOWNS IN FIGHTir WOULD DRAW IT FINER County Seat War, Somewhat Like Old Days, Is Started. Lyndon and Osage City Both Would Lead Osage County. Osage City. Kan., July 17. A coun ty seat war is belnjr waged in Kansas, but not with the bitterness and blood shed of early days. This county, Osage, in the east-central section of the state, is split into two factions, the east and the west. Outc City, a town of 2,376. according to the latest federal census, is the center of the westerners' activity, while Lyndon, the present county seat, a town of -T82 souls, is the stronghold of the easterners. In the days following the Civil war when Burlingame was the county seat,, the factions were formed. The easterners armed and marched on Burlingame, threatening to take the county's records to Lyndon. The westerners met them but bloodshed was avoided. An agreement was reached that balloting should decide where the county seat would be. Lyn- aon won xne eiecuun 11 j i I "lt! e fflintV. uucs urcii i ii a la,-v Osage City, located between Lyn don ana Burlingame. puiriu -at numerous times made attempts to obtain county seat honors, but with out success. A spirited effort In this direction vosm aeo when citizens of the county were asked to vote Donas lor a new cun cost nearly J100.000. Osage City boosters declared it would be folly to build so imposing a structure in a town the else of Lyndon when Osage i"lty had become the county's largest town and was more logically located from the standpoint of train service. The bonds were voted and Lyndon now has a new court house. But Osage City is not content. Judging from comments on a current county commissioner fight, made by H. C Pticher, editor of the Osage City Free Press. In a. lengthy article in a recent is sue of the Free Press. Mr. Sticher tells of the district fight. The editor explains that because the county nan not been redtstricted since organiza tion, it was not divided according to population as required by law. Claim ing that they were not given a fair show in the selection of commission ers, Osage City people asked the coun tv commissioners -to redistrict it. When they refused to do so. the case was presented to the attorney general of Kansas, who rendered a decision upholding Osage City's claim. The commissioners then redistricted k nut njirtii of Osage, City in each of the three districts. Thus, it is explained, Osage City prob ably cannot have a commissioner of its own, altno it is me urs i .i in the county. On the other hand, it is pointed out, by Influencing outside votes, the city may be able to control all three districts and consequently the board of commissioners. The i i ,l- i,nrT. coming election win The redisricting, in any event, does -1 ,7. 1 Ttm pni- not please me mtmttts 7, tor suggests that if the east continues to "play pontics. 11 mmm m t m n mapaAm and form a new county.

Phoa- Allen Wants Track Men Timed in Tenths, Rather Than Fifths of a Second, and Uniform System. The Circus BT ELEANOR KIMBALL. When my pa was a little boy, about the size of me. and 'bout as bad, or maybe worse, the circus came to town! Maybe he didn't' play hooky. Well, I just bet he did, and watched them puttin' up the tents, like any other kid. He told me all about it, and how he helped the men to water all the horses, and when he'd done, why then they gave him a "comp" ticket, and he went in and saw the elephunts, and the giraffe, and the monkeys in a cage, and the lion pacin' up and down. Just in an awful rage! And then the band commenced to play, and the music sounded loud, and he went In the oth er tent and pushed on thru the crowd and got a seat real near the ring, where he could see it all. I tell you, 'twas worth workln hard to eet to see that show! The ladles came a dancin' in. and made a pretty bow, and rode a standln' on a horse! I declare, I don't see how they ever done it, 'cause I tried to once, on our old Bill, and I fell off and skinned my knee, and when I cried, the fellows laughed, and I got mad- as I could be. And then they brought the ele phunts and stood 'em in a row. and made them put their ears down flat, and hold their trunks Just so. And then the acrobats came in, and gave a great, big run. and Jumped clear 'cross those elephunts I bet you that was fun! And then the clowns did lots of things to make the people laugh, and one rode on an elephunt and one on the giraffe, and one performed on the trapese. and hung there by his chin, and -big old Fatty ran a race with a fellow who waa thtn. My pa says we kids nowadays don't see that kind of shows; he says the old kind were the best, and I guess, my pa, he knows. He promised me last evening, if I would go to bed. and stop a-asking questions made up out of my head, he'd take me to the cir cus, and in the side show. too. You'd better believe I went to bed, and I guess that's what you'd do. The cir cus comes next Monday, and I can naraiy wait.- 1 m a-oln' to start real early so as sure and not be late, for I want to the "Grand entree of the Greatest Show on Earth." and I want to see the animals and get my money's worth. Lawrence, Kan.. July 17. Stan dardization of all watches used at track meets to a. measure of tenths rather than fifth seconds, and a sim pler and uniform sretem of time nota tion for the press, are two reforms for big meets that have been proposed by Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics at the University of Kansas. He In timated that an effort would be made to put into etfect both propositions at the first annual Kansas relays next year. The one-tenth second results have come into use within the last year or so. The Kansas coach gives two reasons for the proposed changes: First, the possibility of discovering new records by increased accuracy in calculation of time; and second, a uniform method of recording time, that will lessen con. fusion alike for officials and reading public. "New records could be caught and definitely established, which for lack of agreement among timers and iudc-p. eauinned with the old one-fifth 'stop' watch, or using both kinds, are now lost." Doctor Alien sam. He urged also the adoption among officials and newspapers of a uniform notation of time. Instead of the ex tended fractions, sometimes confusing to those not understanding it, he would use a single decimal, indicating the fraction. If both 22 4-5, 17 3-10 were to ap pear as results. Dr. Allen would have them written 22.8. 17.3; or a re sult from a race of a different nature, such as 4.1S 1-5. indicating a race finished in 4 minutes. 16 and one-fifth seconds, would be handled 4:16.2, in dicating unmistakably to those fa miliar with an accepted uniform sys tem what was meant. Papers are now using both the above methods with loss of time, and results that are confusing, said the director. "More education In track Is what people really need," Ioctor Allen re marked. FIRST PLACE IS AT STAKE. New York -St- Louis Series Third Game Will Decide Nat. Race. (By the Associated Press.) Chicago. July 17.

Rail heads and strike leaders expected today's developments to in dicate more clearly the ultimata out come, however. Much Importance was attached to the number of shopmen returning to work today, as this day marked the time limit for retaining seniority and other rights. Hopes for a settlement at an early date appeared to be based chiefly upon the attitude of E. F. Grable, president of the maintenance of way employes' union, who came to Chicago today from Washington where he held a conference with President Harding. Mr. Grable said he would confer with members of the United States railroad labor board here to get Support to pre vent carriers from requiring mainte nance of way men to do strikers' work.

Detroit, the home of the automobile, has taken a step toward correct English for the eyes of the car user.

That large numbers of students are slipping thru high school totally ignorant of tbe simple tacts of English grammar, is the assertion of Prof. E. R. Barrett, head of the Knglish department in the Kansas State Normal .here. Profes sor Barrett bases his conclusions on the work of freshmen in the Kansas Normal. A noun test given this summer by the, professor produced some inter esting figures. Out of 335 test pa pers. Involving the use of 159 ordinary nouns, only, one word was not missed on any paper; five words were misled but once: the noun "use" was missel 29 times; the word "athletic" was i .cu u. noun n times; the noun e-entlemnn" filail 1. vm. inai iv 11 timeB; and of those examined nine .luutiiui missea over 200 nouns each.

He Is Supporting; Frelingboysen's Bill for a Divorced Tariff. Washington. July 17. Senators Capper, of Kansas, and Poindexter. of Washington, in statements made pub lic today thru the Non-Partisan Scien tific Tariff league, announced their support of the Frellnghuysen amend ment to the tariff measure now be fore the senate. Thla amendment provides for reor ganization of the tariff committee and levying of duties on a finding of facts to be ascertained by experts. It was designed, according to some of those favoring Its adoption, to "take the tariff out of politics." Senator Capper declared in his statement that the present method of framing tariff legislation, "is imprac ticable and unbusinesslike." Senator Poindexter said he had long been in favor of some change which would save the country ani congress from "some of the illogical situations to which they have been subjected in the ordeal of tariff revision."

Present conditions indicate that the prediction of April 15 will be fulfilled. The estimated increase of automo bile registrations in the states served by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) for 1922 will approximate 500,000, making a total probable registration of 3,850,000 cars. Reports show that during the spring of 1922 large stocks of gasoline were accumulated, due to two principal factors, both transitory; first, the sensational production of the Mexia and Haynesville fields, a production which, however, has already fallen below half its peak and is diminish ing rapidly; and second, the heavy and prolonged rains which made touring almost impossible. These reserves of gasoline have served to keep the market steady. Never theless, the vast increase in the number of automotive vehicles and the extraordinary average mileage per car are depleting the reserve stocks rapidly. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana), following its established practice of anticipating the needs of the people in the; territory' it serves, has increased its facilities to an ex tent which enables it to guarantee that it will be in position to supply its patrons wherever they may be located.

Haakin, Director, Washing ton. I. C. Georgo Marble, editor of the Fort 7 Scott Tribune, has written to his pa per from Minneapolis. Minn., as fol lows: "We find, as we have found on previous visits to Minneapolis, tha f prices on many things are lower here -than In Fort Scott or in Kansas gen erally. A Texas watermelon that costs dollar in Fort Scott sells here for .65 cents. We have eaten at a finely appointed restaurant where a. half cantaloupe sells for a nickel. Ice cream soils regularly for five cents, i&a do generous cuts of pie. buttered 'toast, .coffeeT milk, etc.. with cakes 'and sausage for 15 cents, ham and eggs 25 cents, etc. Street car fares .are C cents, with a1 campaign on to reduce them to 6 cents. Forty dollars -a month is about the minimum rental for cottages. Berries and fruits of all kinds are considerably cheaper than we have been used to finding them of late." Perhaps Topeka restaurant proprietors can give us the answer. In Russia, everybody stopped work ing and- the whole world knows the result- Apparently we are headed in that direction in this country. Of course, if people like that .sort of .thing, why, that is the sort of thing they like and it might operate satis Laetarily to a considerable number of persons while the food supply lasts. tit might be remarked in this connec- tion that if all the railroad trains stop 'running the food supply wilt not last any considerable length of time In vthe cities. That was the experience -of Russia, with the result that many thousands perished from lack of i something to eat. A statement issued by the American farm bureau federation declares that fifteen million dollars is the added Jprice the farmer must pay for his fertiliser in the first year of the new 'tariff, if the proposed rates in the pending bill be adopted. Potash, with the proposed duty of (50 a ton, will cost $12,500,000 more. Sulphate of tammonia. on which the proposed rate is S5 a ton, will be boosted $1,000,000. .Burlap, if assessed $20 a ton, as pro 'posed will add $800,000 to the in crease. The advocates of a high1 tariff de clare that labor is insisting on the im mediate passage of the Fordney-Mc-jCumber bill, because the operation jot the existing law is throwing thou sands of Americans out of work. Tet xhe reports of all commercial and gov ernment agencies show that involun tary unemployment has almost en tirely disappeared. Misrepresentations jnay fool some of the people but they gvill not deceive members of congress. There are approximately a million idle men In the country, but not on account of the tar!tf. The nationwide coal strike now In tensified by the walkout of the rail road shop employes atill fails to have any marked Impress upon iron and steel conditions, says the Iron Trade Review. At this time, it continues, producers are most concerned with the Immediate problem of meeting their order obligations which is com plicated by labor shortages at this season, especially in the hot mills and by a lack of box cars, notably in sheets,- Despite all the present handi caps It to pointed out pig iron produc tion continues to gain, the total In June being 47.070 tons greater .Chan in May, a one day larger month. This marks eleven months of steady In crease. Domestic railroad car awards for the first half "of the year totaled 101, S25. This slip wing has not been exceeded in ten years. The June fig ure -was 14,400. New awards are keeping up steadily, those of the week aggregating 4.500. Near capacity pro duction of tin plate among Indepen dent mills is assured for a number of weeks by the heavy unfilled bookings. With certain group of mills total orders, recently were 2.500,000 boxes, or practically ninety days full work, Tin plate and sheet shipments by the American Sheet A Tin Plate company during the first six months of 1922, were the third largest in history. The Paris dispatches Indicate that the anarchist who attempted to as sassinate President Millerand. is like Byron's giavour "As mild a' mannered man as ever cut a throat or scuttled ship." THE RECESS OF THE HOUJE The New Tork Times calls attention to trie fact that two weeks have elapsed since the house of represen tatives took a recess "to carry the subsidy bill to the people." Three hundred or more earnest statesmen were, according to this theory, let loose upon the public to convince each voter of the merits of the proposals for building up a great merchant ma rine. i j ii. u v. ucrinK, x h Time. V. 1 ,na Times, but we have noticed says no popular agitation about the subsidy Mil; we have not even heard the clarion voice of any congressman ex plaining it to the 'public. It looks as if the people had made up their minds bout the subsidy before their repre sentatives got back from Washing' ton." i But the senate, which remains In Washington, seems to be hearing from the country. A canvass of Republican senators Is said to reveal a majority acainst taking up the subsidy bill at all this session. Where, however, are those repre entauves wno were sent out two weeks ago on an evangelistic cam palgn? So far as the eye and the ear can determine, they are doing nothing, p. either the tariff, the bonus. nor the subsidy engages their elo quence. If they are interested in any thing, it Is in fixing up their' "fences." The best the senate could do would be to follow the example of the lower house and retire to await judgment at the November election. What will happen to advocate oi a high tariff and a ship subsidy in the primaries probably will do mild in comparison to what wiU happen o them In November. ta.i'f forces have been losing ground steadily. Many of those who at irst were inclined to support the pending measure are reported to have turned against It. The senators would do well to set up red lanterns about the tariff, the bonus and the subsidy, then go home. The fire losses from January 1 to June 30, this year, came to $192, 259,000 aa compared with $164,926,- 800 for the same period of 1921 or more than $22,000,000 in excess. If this rate of Increase be maintained It is doubtful that building ever can overtake the needs of the country. OUR FARM POPULATION The department of commerce an nounces that, according to the four teenth decennial census, the farm population of the United States on January 1. 1920, was $1,614,269, or 29.9 per cent of the total population or the country on that date. Of this number, S1.S56.640 were enumerated in rural territory and 255,629 on farms located within the limits of cities and other incorporated places having 2.500 inhabitants or more. No separate figures for political farmers are given. The total farm population of Kansas as shown by the report fs 737,377 or 41.7 per cent of the entire population of the state. The number actually residing in rural territory Is 735.8S4. The census definition of a farm ex tends somewhat beyond the ordinary meaning of the term In that it in cludes any fruit or market garden, poultry yard, dairy or apiary which either yielded $250 worth of products in 1919 or required for its operation the continuous services of at least one person during that year. The farm population comprises both farm oper ators and farm laborers and their families. Including farm laborers and their families not actually living on farms but, not living in incorporated places. The proportion which the farm population formed of the total in the individual states ranged from 71 per cent in Mississippi to 2.S per cent In Rhode Island. In eleven states liv ing on farms constituted more than half the total. On the other hand, in fifteen states the farm population formed less than one-fourth of the totat In general, the smallest propor tions of farm population are found in the northeastern states that is. the states lying north of the Ohio and Potomac rivers and east of the Missis sippi and in the Pacific coast states. The percentages which the farm population formed of the entire rural population of the several states In 1929 also shows a wide range, from 20.1 In New Jersey to 81.8 in Missis sippi. In sixteen states the farm pop ulation constituted less than half the total rural population. In actual numbers, the largest farm population for any state. 2,277.773. was reported for Texas. The smallest. 18.136, is shown for Rhode Island. In which state the proportion which the iarm population formed of the total, ..S per cent, is also the smallest shown for any state. In fourteen states the farm population in 1920 numbered more than a million; but neither New Tork nor Pennsylvania, whlob. outrank a'J other states in total population, ap pears In this list. Once more Uncle Sam is assured that Great Britain will pay him every dollar she owes him. The people will be glad to see the color of her money. Evening Story Without a Man. By ANNE LARDNER. "I'm not going." Virginia gave a vicious tug at the stocking she was mending as tho that settled the mat ter. i Martha Carson, vigorously polishing nails already pink and shiny, stopped short and stared at the slim, fair haired girl opposite. "Why, you're perfectly silly!" Curtains soiled with the town's Crime stirred in the soft spring breese. The sunshine of a Saturday afternoon in May seeped thru the window of the moderate-sized 'room the two girls oc cupied together, because both were employed by the Struthers Chemical Company, a giant concern whose red brick smokestack rose toweringly over the city of Birmington. It was the annual outing of the clerical force to be held Monday at a country club some miles distant thst Virginia and Martha were now discussing. For lively little Martha, with her never varying pink complexion and hen ready "line" with the boys, it was something to be looked forward to eagerly; for Virginia, whose skin was pale and who never knew what to say to a young man who exclaimed, "Some little queen." it was a different matter. Martha used her nail buffer elabor ately. "I know. It's it's because none of the boys asked you to ride out there with him." There was a hot flush on the pale, clear skin. Maraha was not really unkind, but Virginia read books about chemistry on the side. Virginia had been steadily advanced ever since she came to Birmington. It didn't seem fair. The taller girl struggled to control her voice. There was almost a break in it. "Yes. Martha, what's the use of trying to hide it? I'm I'm ashamed to be seen without a man." But you came last year. Last year you didn't mind Virginia did not answer right away. She had walked over to the window and was looking out at the smoke stacks, at the hills and the blue sky beyond them. Suddenly she wheeled around. There was fine determination in her wide-set gray eyes. She flung her head high. She was quite beauti ful. "You're right. Martha. Thank you for saying that- Why should this time be different from tne last time I am what I am. Why should I pre tend to be something else? I'm going to the picnic. I'll go if I have to take a book and spend the whole day reading!" Kven as she flung out her sentences Virginia knew she was not telling the truth. There was a reason why this spring was different from any other in the twenty-one years of her whole existence. The day of the outing dawned fine and clear. A flawless blue sky cano pied the whole earth. The air was sweet with May and gay little wild flowers edged the road over which the Kg trucks of the chemical com pany merrily traveled. uiggiesr rep artee and the spirited making of plans filled the grounds of the Apple Tree Country club as 120 young peo ple piled helter-skelter out of the lm-v promotu busses. Virginia tried to loin in a little, for her heart, too. felt the springtime. But the boys stood in awe of her. She was shy and sensitive. So she was prim especially was she prim in the office of Richard Masters, the new young sales manager from Chi cago, whose private secretary she had been made two months ago. In the general scramble that fol lowed the arrival at the grounds Vir ginia did not feel so much out of things. Then gradually the noisy, gay-hearted group began to break up into particular cliques and soon the hillsides were dotted with the bright colored dresses of girls with young men beside them, tripping off in vari ous directions. Just as the last couples were. Vir inia felt sure, about to invite her feebly to go along with them and then hasten away, a little car came rattling up the, roadway. Instinctively Vir ginia knew Richard Masters would be in it. Now it was going to happen just as she had feared. He was going to Bee her deserted, forgotten he was going to know! Virginia wanted to py-etend to laugh and talk with the others, to go off with them even if they didn't ask her. Yet this was Just what she had determined to face. She would, not pretend' to be popular. Without waiting to speak to him, she walked slowly off by herself in tho full view on Richard Masters. All morning long by the side of a little brook Virginia read the book she had actual I' brought. Read it feverishly, trying to lose her own heartache in its pages. sometimes her eyes wandered. It was hard not to remember! Toward noon she be came restless and decided to take a little walk. Her footsteps led her along the rivulet's bank. The stream .widened as she went on. The water was sun-flecked and the branches hung over it in mystic shadows. Virginia sighed. The world was very beautiful. On a bridge that stretched across the stream a hundred feet away she spied a man fishing. That interested her. and she walked slowly along watching him. His head was bent over his rod, he wore an old felt hat and was in his shirt sleeves. Now he had a bite. There was a swift jerk of the line, a flash of silver thru the air, the slapping sound of a fish landed on a wooden platform and the man raised his eyes. Fifteen feet away from him Virginia stared open-mouthed at Richard Mas ters. "I'm I'm fishing," he said after the first startle of embarrassment ha.l left his boyish brown eyes. "It's nice out here. -isn't it?" Vir ginia answered after a pause. There was a sigh in her voice. Her eves still had that vague sweetness that usually came to them when she was alone. Why did you cut me ud there in front of the clubhouse?" he. said ab ruptly. I d-didn't." Virginia stuttered. She was earning her hat and the sun found threads of gold in her rumpled hair. Suddenly she remembered her resolution. She spoke very simply and very truthfully. "I went away. Mr. Masters, because the others deserted me and I I was lonely. Because, I guess, I'm always lonely." "Lonely!" The still spring day rarfg with the strength of Richard Masters' reply. Then he stared at her-and there was yearning in his eyes. "Do you think if I'd known that was the truth I'd have been down here mop ing with a fishing pole? Do you think if I had thought that it wasn't that you've been trying to avoid me The question hung in the air. Vir ginia did not answer Richard Mas ters, but her eyes must have done so, for two hours later he waa still sitting beside -her on the grassy slope by the murmuring brook. And altho she had supper with the others, with a cer tain attentive young man, of course, to pass her everything, she did not go home in the truck.- In the moon light she skimmed over the hilts in a rattly old car and when she want up stairs to loin Martha her eyes were starry with a promise ehe had Just half given.

That is. she had one ambition that loomed larger to be an office girl in New York. To take down letters In short hand, to play on the keys of a type writer, represented both independence and happiness to her.. .Not that she knew much about it, for Nellie never had been beyond Hudson Corners, where as soon as she was old enough she helped Miss Car ter who kept a rooming house. But one of the Hudson Corner girls had gone to New York, and was doing well in a broker's office, and what Nellie heard of Cora Baker's success only maae ner tne more determined some day to try her luck in the "Big Town. as she heafd it called by a man who occasionally stopped at the boarding nouse. Nellie's schooling had been an tin certain sort of an affair. Miss Carter keeDlner her- out as rtften an nh inrd. But Nellie never grumbled because-CT this. Some time in the dim past a ooaraer naa lerc a Typewriter when he departed; Nellie never dreamed he left it voluntarily she knew Miss Carter too well. But when her work was done, and often when it was not, Nellie stole to the attic where the typewriter reposed in company with various cheap trunks and bags Miss Carter was a good business women and with painstaking diligence slow ly, laboriously, taught herself to use the machine. She knew she should also study shorthand, but there was no way. No one at the Corners could teach her; if they could Miss Carter would not have let her have the time to learn. So she gave every minute to perfecting herself on the type writer, hoping U she did typing well she could some day get a position where shorthand was not necessary. It was really remarkable that Nel lie did as well as she did with her stolen moments, working at night by the glimmer of a candle, going with out sleep to perfect herself. Yet altho she gained considerable speed and typed a neat looking page, her spell ing was atrocious. Miss Carter paid Nellie very little. High wages had not reached as far as Miss Carter's boarding house. But Nellie hoarded every penny she re ceived, her occasional tips from1 some boarder for whom she did an extra service; and went shabby, doing with out all the little things and outings young girls love, to save against the time she could get to New York. Nellie was 17. At 17 hope and faith are instinctive. She never doubted for a moment that once in New York she would find a position, and be able to earn enough to take care of herself. Nellie was also pretty- She had dark brown hair that curled in riotous fash ion 'about her head; bobbed because Miss Carter said she spent too. much time doing it up, rather than "(because bobbed hair was in style. Her 'eyes were big and brown, laughing eyes that intrigued one at once. She was rather short and very slender the latter she claimed was caused by over eating at Miss Carter's! 'v Nellie had Cora Baker's address, but she always said to herself: "I'll never let her knew I'm there till I get a job and some clothes." i Away from Hudson Corners, Nellie would have pride in her appearance. There she cared nothing how she looked all she thought of was getting away. She knew how much It cost to get to New York, she also knew she must have a little to keep her until she found a Job. Beyond that she did not look. She had set $25 as the amount she must have over and above her fare. That would keep her a long time she knew nothing of New York pricf she probably would not need to use It all for she wouldr find office work be fore It was gone, she was sure. Unconsciously one of the boarders helped her. She was a small woman who, feeling sorry for the shabby little slavey, gave her a fairly decent look ing dark blue tailored suit. "Nellie was in ecstasies, and when a man passing thru gave her a dollar, she bought a sailor hat at the general store and felt herself equipped to face the world. A train passed thru the Corners at midnight. She would take that. She had no intention of taking anyone into her confidence she would never be allowed to go If she did.. So the day she had $25 aside from the amount necessary for her ticket, she borrowed one of the cheap suitcases from the attic, and at midnight quietly stole away, all her worldly possessions not filling the case. "I didn't steal it! I'll send It back when I get in an office," she said as she tugged it to the station.

Do you think he. is worthy of us? WONDERING. Since your husband was so selfiH and yeta could not get along together before. I don't know what you would have to look forward to if you went back to him. He thinks he would do the right thing, but as soon as he got what he wanted he would probably treat you in the same way. Of course this is a matter which no one should decide for you. Consider the character of the youhg man and draw -your own conclusinso.

Bailey editor1, of the Salina Daily Journal and retiring president of the State Editorial association, has a deep, brown grouch. He wants to known when it became a crime for newspaper men to run for office in Kansas. He is anxious to express his tnougnts of the politicians who grab I all the free newspaper publicity avail able and later take the stump to wail about the tendency to select mem bers of the press crowd for public service. Bailey is for Morgan for governor. In fact, he will spend most of his time before the primaries In Topeka pre paring copy for the Morgan press bu reau. He will aid Wilbur N. Hawk of Atchison in directing campaign ac tivities during final days of the pri mary fight. "Since when has it been a crime to be a newspaper man in Kansas?" asl Bailey.' "It happens that along with a majority of the newspaper men of Kansas I have supported several can didates who are now busy abusing newspaper men. It was done without price and without reward other than that we all felt that we were doing what was for the best Interest of the people of the state. "It all goes back to a point Morgan has made repeatedly in this cam paign. There is too much lime and effort being spent in trying to stir up class hatred and to convince farmers. mechanics, stockmen and citizens of various vocations that they have in terests that are not identified with those of all other citizens and that they are entitled to special favors that are not granted to ail tne people.

He declares that an unmar ried woman's neck is stiff and rigid and has to be forced into the desired position, whereas a marricl woman's neck is flexible, and easily falls into any pose. This Is net to be marvelled at, for the neck that has worn the matrl monial yoke is a trained ncrk.

It does not take a woman long to find out after she is married that her neck must either bend or break, and if she has any intelligsnoa whatever sne begins limbering up her mental and moral vertebrae until she can tie double bow knots in all of her previous habits and opinions, instead of standing up as uncompromising as a lamp post, and letting matrimony hammer her to pieces. uertainly, one of -the missions of marriage is to teach people adaDtabil- lty. No man and woman can go thru that mill without having their egotism and vanity ground to powder, and without finding out. that if they wish to live in reasonable peace and happi ness, they must learn to adjust them selves to the people by whom thev are surrounded, and the circumstances in which they must live. Instead of ex pecting to make over -the world and everyone In to their liking. f or tnis reason, married neople are nearly always more reasonable, more amenable to argument and easier to get along with than single people. Nearly all fanatics are old maids and old bachelors. They-have never had to adjust their point of view to an other and so there has develoned in them a colossal coficeit that makes them believe that there is no other side to a question except the one they i Perhaps the greatest surprise that matrimony holds for a man is the fact that he has to adjust himself to his wife, for every man's secret belief is that he is- marrying a lump of clay tnai ne can transform into his own image with a pat or two. To his con sternation he finds that this was a mistake, and that he has acquired a life partner who bristles with sensi bilities, and prejudices, and opinions as a porcupine does with spikes, and that he has to handle her with gloves if he doesn't wish to be constantly im paled on her sharp points.

The report clear ly indicates- that the number of men re ported as being employed by the railroad officials is misleading. The facts are that this class of employes are a burden to the company and an asset to the men who are now engaged in mis struggle for justice, as those supposed to be working have had little or no experience at all and cannot deliver the goods.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL MONDAY EVENING, JULY 17, 1922 ENDED JNA FIGHT Riled Over Losing, Independ ence Players Attack Umps. Visitors Won First Game,' 4 to 3 Solons Second, 5 to 4. i Unable to hit in the pinches. .Topeka lost the first Kama of yesterday's dou blehe&der to Independence, 4 to 3. but overcame a lead and won the second contest in a stirring finish, s' to 4. A decision which permitted the Solons I to win the last game resulted in an attack on Umpire Van GraXlan by the Independence players and it was near ly thirty minutes before the field was cleared after the tumult which iui 1nl, The iimns wasn't seriously hurt but several Independence players will probably wake up mis mornms and find themselves suspended. iTiree times in the first game, To peka filled the bases but the base hits needed to put the game on ice were always lacking. The hurling burden fell to Mitchell and after a bad start in the first inning, when a warn. -passed ball, a wild pitch and three singles gave the visitors three runs. Bill forgot his wild tactics and pitched a swell game, allowing only five scat tered hits during the remainder of the contest. In the meantime, the 1 Solons were collecting nine hits Mi Happy" Campbell but fell down mis erably in the pinches, and had it not been for errors would-have failed to produce a run, Oil, foe Base Hit. Two singles, a passed ball and an error gave the Solons two runs in the third, after which they proceeded to fill the bases on a choice play, an error and a base on balls. Cooley sent Pierce in to bat for Horn in the hope that the little portsider would uncork one of his famous home runs but what Pierce did was to strike out. After two were gone in the fifth, the Sol" -filled the bases on singles by Clarke and Bockskopf and a walk to Dean Wells, who was playing short in place of Bioss. but Yendes furnished the groan by striking out The same sit uation presented itself in the eighth, but what's the use. Thus it was that the team went into the ninth, which Fisher opened by hitting for three bases. Fromme was an easy out but Flaskamper singled and Fisher scored.

Pierce, whewwas allowed to pass up the first game on account of a stifl shoulder, was slow in rounding into form in the second contest and for four innings was hit rather hard. Two ii- ,inciM and an error gave the Producers three runs in the third, and Flaskamper s tnpie. iuiiucu Lowrances double, gave them an other run in the fourth. After that Pierce returned to his old gait and failed to let a man get to. first base. With "Hungry" Boyd, ace hurler of the independence gang, things were going Just the opposite. A walk to Bockskopf in the second, was the only offering Boyd allowed tor four in nings, and with the game scheduled to go only seven innings, the big crowd, probably the largest of the sea'on. wasn't exactly happy. But Benn brought the grandstand to life by opening the fifth with a single to right field, and Bockskopf was also credited with a hit when he dumped one toward third base which Boyd was unable to handle. Then when Wells walked, filling the bases, there was a tenseness which lasted until the contest came near breaking up in a fre for all fight. Umps Pulled a Boner. A choice p'.ay off Yendes' bat, forced Bockskopf between third and second but allowed Benn to score. Pierce singled to right, scoring Wells, and Yendes also scored when Bagwell heaved his return over third base. With the ball supposedly, and by rights, out of play. Pierce was caught at second base. Several minutes were lost while every member of the To peka team tried to tell Van Graflan that the ball was out of play but the umps listened to Ted Waring and in sisted that Pierce was out. That be ing the case, the inning was over when Peterson sent a fly to center field. Bockskopfs opened the last half of the seventh with a single. Wells at tempted to sacrifice but was rafe when Fisher messed up the play. Yendes advanced each runner with a sacrifice. Pierce lifted a foul to Fromme for the second out. and when Peterson dumped one in front of the plate, it looked as if the game was up Salt creek, but Fromme's throw was low and Fisher dropped the ball. The result was that "Dutch" wos safe and Bocky waa in with the tying run. Then the War Broke Out. The next play was the one that started the war. Neville hit a grounder which bounded over Boyd's head to be captured by "Red" Low rance near second base. His pes; to Fisher was true and when the ball got there o was Neville, feet first, and Van Graflan ruled in favor of the runner. As Wells came over the plate with the winning run, the decision was the fuse for a lot of fireworks which had been stored up during the afternoon. Rnth ihihi. as well as most of the crowd, had been brought to the fight-4- ing point several times on account oi the umpire's apparent blindness or in ability to see things as they were, and when Van Graflan called Neville safe. Independence players made their at tack. Pity the Poor Umpire. Running from the players' bench. "Happy" Campbell gave Van Graflan a punch in the face, Flaskamper fol lowed with a side blow to the um pire's ribs, while Jenkins made a leap for his head. The scrap with the mna didn't last lone but before the lrowd. the Independence players and rthe officers got thru with a series of struggles everybody got home for late suppers. When Bockskopf came in with the tying run. the crowd in the east end of the grandstand hurled hundreds of cushions on the field as a way of ex pressing their enthusiasm. This helped to rile the umps who threatened to call the game, but during the mixup afterwards the cushions were again hurled on the field and toward the Independence players, only to be thrown back by a large crowd which was forming in front of the grand stand. In vain did an officer try to stop the fight. He was merely a tar get for more cushions. The score: Second Game. INDEPENDENCE.

Luschen had a trifle the best of Shores in a pitchers' battle Saturday afternoon, and the Solons defeated In dependence by a score of 1 to 0. Luschen allowed four hits and Shores five, and neither hurler issued a single pass. Luschen struck out ten men. Topeka scored the only run of the game in the fourth Inning after two were out. Strohm singled to center and rode home on a double by Benn. It was the only time during the game that a Topeka run advanced further than second base. With one down in the second. Fish-' er tripled to left field but Luschen prevented a score by striking Stewart out and forcing Jenkins to hit t the infield. In the final inning, Lowrance was safe on an error, and after Flas kamper struck out. advanced to third on a singlo by Frankenhoif. Luschen then struck out Bagwell, and Benn turned it into a double play by whip ping the ball to third and nailing the speedy Lowrance who was attempting a steal. It was a sudden end to one of the fastest games played in Topeka this season. Robert Strohm. of Kansas City, who came here to spend the day with his brother, Harry Strohm, was forced into the game as an infielder when Bross split a finger during practice and was untble to play. He played second base while Harry went over to short. The seore: 1?, lf. 1 r,. I 'r. v r..

DARKEST JF ALL John Black Was Light Horse When Matched With Sarasen. Little Pittsburgh Latin Wins Chi Open With 288 Total. (By the Associated Press.). Chicago. July 17. In addition to being: the first person of the Latin race to win the national open golf championship. Gene Sarazen of Pitts burgh, the 21-year-old professional, who won at Skokie is the first to win a national golf title and yet to be so little known to golf experts none can describe the style of his play. The genial youngster who snatched the prime golf honors from a field of 329 of doughty Scots and Americans ploughed his way around the Skokie course twice In the qualifying rounus and four times in the championship yet no one paid attention to him until he turned into the last nine. Then, 'when word spread he had scored S3 for the, penultimate nine, the golf writers alone realized he had a goodly chance to down the better known players. But the frisky strip ling was already well on his way to the tenth green, and there were Hagen. the sturdy John Block and Bobby Jones, to watch. So the lad of Italian ancestry stripped home in 35 for a record 63 in any championship round before the pews spread he might be the win ner. No man of the 7,000 on the course could say whether his cunning was in long driving like that of Abe Mitchell, the Briton; in precise medium driv ing like that of Chick Evans; in put ting like that of Jess "Guilford, or in unbelievably close approaching such as Jock Hutchison can produce, or in the dogged steadiness of Walter Hagen. But Sarasen won the right to be watched, discussed, condemned and advised by all the golf critics in Chris tendom, from the moment he sank his last putt for a total of 288 strokes of for 72 holes, within two strokes of the record set by Chick Evans in 1916. Sarazen's score was 12 strokes bet ter than that with which Hagen won the British open and yet it was only one better than the total recorded by Bobby Jones and John Black, only two strokes better than that of Wil liam Melhorn of Shreveport. Sarazen's next tournament will be the western open at Detroit, August 23. THE DOPE BOX The Solons, having played a dou bleheader yesterday, are resting today,' preparatory to opening a three-game series with Hutchinson tomorrow. After playing; Hutchinson Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, the Topeka club will journey south for a long stretch of fifteen games, meeting every club In the league except Hutch inson and Salina, and will not return home until August S. The Solons' first stop will be at In dependence. July 21, 22 and 23 and they will then make a circuit of Sa pulpa, Muskogee, BartlesviUe and Cof feyville, playing three games in each town.- With the exception of a swing back to Independence the middle of August and another swing to Hutch inson and Salina. it will be the last road trip of the season. Inefficient umpiring was to blame for the melee at the ball park yester day. Every umpire in the league with the exception of Womack had a hand in it. Not only are many of their decisions bad but they let the players and managers run over them in a painful manner. Then the teams ana the crowd get into a fighting mood and something unpleasant is bound to happen, Altho his work in the last series was vry poor, the attack on Umpire Van Graflan is to be regretted and the Independence players who were responsible for it should be fined and suspended. Only the day before Flas kamper threw a bat at Van Graflan and the umpire apparently let it go unnoticed. The Independence, team is rast and ctassy on the field and if the players would cut out out their rough tactics, would be a hard aggre gation to beat out for the pennant. The Topeka players should be com mended for taking no part in the fuss. They did considerable crabbing during the games but in the face of Vau Graflan's actions no one could hardly blame them-- It was Manager Cooley and "Bill" Bagwell, Independence right fielder, who rescued the umps and saw him safely to the club house. Neither did Manager Cooley or the Topeka players have any part in the mixup which occurred later on when two officers were stampeded by the crowd near the east end of the grand stanL In"anaffort to stop the crowd from throwing cushions. Dick Wilsfin, a po lice officer, is alleged to have struck at least three boys with a blaekjack. Then some one accused Wilson of testifying falsely against the mayor and the crowd turned on the officer in a threatening manner. Tom Hur ley, marshal of the court of Topeka, tried to quell the crowd and the two officers were lucky to get out of the mess without "being hurt. Which had nothing to do with the ball game whatever. The players and the umpire were gone when this trou ble occurred. It was Just one way the crowd had of entertaining itself. The crowd yesterday was the largest of the season and the receipts will help smooth the way for the Solons financially. A"f least 2,000 people saw the two pam"aai and a fight or two.

Damage of Million Dollars and One Life Lost in Mass. Willimansett Hit bj Seven Foot Wall of Water Early Today. aBsaBasaaaasssaBstssassaaasai 1 Willimansett, Mass., July 17. The loss of one life and property loss esti mated at one' million dollars was the i toll taken early, today by the flood that swept thru here following the bursting of two dams. A wall of water in some places seven feet i:sh, swept all in its path. Buildings were hurled from founda tions, trees and. poles uprooted and railroad tracks torn up. One Death Is Known. The one known death was that of Mra Albert Corllng of Pemleton A.ve., who died of exposure and shock after she had been rescued from the rag ing waters. Her home had been swept away. The flood resulted from the bursting of dams at two points above here. The Langwald dam gave way first and the water released there swept away the Roberts dam. Th.o the flood reached considerable height, it was not of long duration, and after reaping its harvest of de struction, quickly subsided. The-majority of the town's 4,000 in habitants were forced to flee-to higher ground, many clothed only in night clothing. Many houses were ripped from their foundations and trees and telegraph poles were washed out in some sections. Many owe their lives to. telephone operators who remained at their posts and sent out warnings of impending drownings. Rail communioation of the Boston Maine railroad between Springfield and White River Junction, N. J., has been broken. Wind Swept Iowa, Too. Cedar Rapids. Ia., July 17. Meager reports received from central Iowa indicated vast damage was done by a wind of cyclonic velocity that swept that section of the state late yester day.

Success in Life Often Times Depends Upon Starting the Da Right TO BOUNCE out of bed feeling fresh as a daisy; to greet the little one prancing- before you with a happy laugh, toss him up high with a firm, steady hand, and actually dance with the very Joy of living! Then plunge into your morning tub, if that's your method, dress with a smile on your lips and a song; in your heart. Come, with firm stepj to .the breakfast table, eager for its wholesome fare And you spread joy in your house hold and go forth into the world "fit to fight,"- equipped with that most powerful of all weapons, great good health. For health is surely yours, and YOU do not need Tanlac. But how different if you arise un refreshed, aching: in every fiber, un moved by the healthy laugher of the household. The long day ahead will seem to you an eternity, promising nothing but misery, and you Just have to summon all your will power and what little energy remains to you, to drag yourself up," dress and take your place faljeringly, discouraged, without appetite, at your breakfast table. Gloom enshrouds you and casts its depressing pall about your whole fam ily circle, and you go out to the battle of life already hopelessly beaten. YOU need Tanlac! And. oh! how many thousands ex perience this wretched state! Far and wide the wail is heard from those who crawl out of bed with the greatest effort and wonder if there is nothing that can bring the- health that will make them feel "fit as a fiddle" in the morning. They need Tanlac! What is the matter? Why are they all tired out in the morning? The answer is simply that their systems are clogged and their blood poisoned from the waste substances that have been stored up because the digestive and eliminative organs have not per formed their proper functions. And the reason for all this is that too much hastily eaten food has been piled Into the stomach. When you feel yourself getting up in the morning unrefreshed and ex hausted, look for the symptoms of stomach trouble, such as dizziness, A-n,n,ianMa A toat. In tTlA TTlOUttl and biliousness.

The registration books are at the city clerk's office in the city building and the office is open every evening until 10 p. m. This government of ours, county, state and national, is constituted, or ganized and governed by the voters of America", men and women, and since our ssovernment is based upon the will of the people, hence it becomes not only the patriotic privilege of every American man w-nd woman to register and vote, but it becomes every citi zen's duty, for when the citizens of this republic neglect to express their wills at the polls, the future of our re public is in danger. There is no great privilege conferred upon anyone with out carrying with it a great respon sibility or duty, and with the privi leges of our government comes the re sponsibility and duty to vote. Voting is Just as Important as serving on a jury, and should be made compulsory by law. Personally, I do not consider a man or woman who has the right to vote a full-fledged 100 per cent American citizeo unless they do so.

Unusual skin pallor, loss of weight, loss of appetite and in ability to sleep restful ly, are Nature's warnings, and you must look to your digestive system or be in danger of drifting into some serious disease. The natural action of Tanlac on "the digestive, secretive, assimilative and eliminative organs is the certain safe guard to your health, and the never failing foe of that awful tired feeling when you get out of bed in the morn ing. Tanlac has proved to be the best and safest tonic and system purifier, stimulating the digestive system to its proper functioning, so the blood is able to take up fresh building material and is so vitalized as to be able to more thoroughly eliminate the waste products which make you feel all tired out. v The cells of all parts of the body then receive real healthy nourishment, the shrunken tissues are filled out. the skin regains its glowing texture and the bloom of health. The eye clears. and with the strong and normal diges tion the whole system is built up to tne point where your hours of sleep are truly refreshing, and you get up in the morning feeling "fit as a fiddle." It seems the sheerest folly for any one to feel all tired out in the morn ing when Tanlac affords the best and most natural means of Keeping in good trim or bringing the system back to its full and normal powers.

THEY SAT Or so says Eleanor Gates, the novel ist, that much of the "flapper" lack of restraint is due to their shedding of corsets. Once more the corset is blamed for conditions. "The young women who have been shedding their 'staytf these past few years," says Miss Gates, "have, whether they know It or not, shed far more than that. For bodily slackness and careless slouching mean a loss of discipline. A corset less waist is apt to accompany an air of unrestraint. Corsets -come off, galoshes go unfastened, and, yes. lower lips hang! If you don't believe It just observe the uncorseted young girl In the shops and the restaurants and the theaters. Mouth-breathers! For the corset is to a woman exactly what a uniform is to a man. It makes for an erect carriage. It tells its wearer that she looks well. Whateyer she has on stays put! And lnstio tively she feels self respect. Then there's the matter of health in addi tion to that of posture. And even In these days when it's (fortunately) fashionable to have a big waist and wear the corset loose, there is yet sup port, xou know that when you see the uncorseted flapper flopping. But the best argument of all is one of health protection. Men have their open coats and their buttoned-down- the-front vests, and they suffer from digestive troubles far more than do women. A sudden change of tem perature, a sharp breeze, and the man s stomach Is chilled. But the woman To her vital organs the cor set is a shield." "Notes and Personal Mention.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNALMONDAY EVENING, JULY .17, 1922 8. l.7.7.0RK.K.K.? Either Vill Meet Death at '1 Heads of James S. Joseph. Me Issues Defi After Receiving a Warning to Leare. Dodge City. Kan- July 17- A state ment that "It -will not ba healthy lor member of the Eu Klux Klan or I. W. W. to get in his peaceful way." haa been issued by James S. Joseph of Bucklin, Ford county. Following receipt of a warning which Josepn says came from the Klan. telling him "to leave the country or be killed." he Journeyed to Dodge City and secured permission from the sheriff and coun ty attorney to arm himself "for pro tection against the Klan." The permit says he can carry two .88 caliber revolvers and Joseph an nounced forthwith that he would "at all times and in all places have the six-shooters on his person." Mr. Joseph has issued the following public notice which was printed re cently in the Bucklin Banner: 'To whom it may concern, greeting: "Some time ago the writer received two letters on different dates, signed K. K. K." stating he would be killed if he did not stop tne work he was doing, vis. the development of coal In Clark county. 'The county officials were notified, hut did not believe there were any Ku Klux Klan people in Ford county. The following article, taken from a Hutchinson paper of recent date, ex plains itself: 'Dodge City At a meeting of business men of Dodge City Tuesday. m. card purporting to have come fron the Ku Klux Klan was passed around. Where the card came from Is not known. It stated In effect that the -white robed figures of the Klan would soon appear- in Dodge City. It fur ther cautioned to "let your conscience be" your guide, and fear not.' 'at is believed that an organization (f the nature of the Ku Klux Klan would not meet a very encouraging reception in Ford county. The whole history of the Klan is one of defiance f the laws of America. Each and .very member is afraid and ashamed to have his connections therewith known. Their every act is in defi ance of the laws that give to every person charged with a crime the right to a fair and impartial trial. They abuse women as well as men; the law cannot reach them. The whole country Is filled with this lawless spirit as demonstrated at Herrin. 111., recently, and I feel it is ..time for the American people to en ter a protest. ,t "The writer's life has been threat ened over the signature of the Ku -Klux Klan. This is a fair and final -notice. After this date I shall at all times and in all places carry two JS- calibre six shooters on my person, ana it any time and In any place I shall, in the legitimate conduct of my wofk. meet a band of persons wearing the K- K. K. uniforms. I shall feel that they have come to put their threat Into execution and I shall shoot on sight, and shoot to kill. Signed "JAMES S. JOSEPH." "Bucklin. Ford County. Kan.
