The lawmakers would do well to give careful
thought to these words from Governor Werts:
Local taxation is everywhere too high. and
in many localities oppressive. The inequalities
between corporate and personal taxation and
the large exemptions from all taxation increase

of such inequalities and exemptions would great

OMAHA, Neb., Aug, 30-The Council

Great crowds of delighted visitors to

prepared TO defend themselves and the
states property in their possession. A
few minutes before O'Clock this morning
a mob appeared. 200 strong, armed with
all kinds of weapons. The cadets had
thrown out q double guard line, which
met the hoodlums with their guns. The
cadets did not have their bayonets, or
they would have used them with good
effect. Lieut.. Charles Sayle met the
leader of the gang and warned him
away. The warning had the effect Of
attracting the attention of the leader to
the young officer and he was promptly
attacked and knocked down. The ca
diets dubbed their guns and rushed to
the rescue. The leader of the mob was
roughly handled in the melee that fol-
lowed and several of the cadets re-
ceived bruises and black eyes that rem
dered those members temporarily use

coming so aggressive and dangerous
that the cadets were on the point of re-
sorting to the use Of their guns when Il

SOUTH AMERICAN POLITICS
The Chilean Voters Anxiously Waiting
Election Returns
Their Presidential Election Is Very Close ard
Revolution is Likely to Follow the
Announcement of the Result

LIMA, Peru, Aug. 30.-The latest re-
ports from Chile are to the effect that
the registrars and election officials have
resolved to attend and take part in the
meeting of congress for today for the
purpose of determining who has been
elected president. There has been con-
siderable anxiety as to the result.
The election recently held in Chile
was one of the stormiest ever held in
a country noted for stormy elections
Senor Errazuriz. the editor of one of the
leading newspapers of Peru, was the
candidate for the conservatives. Senior
Errazuriz has been a member Of the
Chilean cabinet, and he is regarded as
one of the most brilliant of the political
leaders of South America. The candi-
date for the opposition was Senor
Reyes. 1t was reported that Errazuriz
expended a large amount of money in
his campaign. Senior Reyes, on the
other hand, announced that he would
not expend one cent. Before the cleo
tion Reyes issued an address to the
electors. in which he said that what he
had amassed he should save for his
children. He said that he was unalter-
fly the personal vanity involved in a
desire to become president. He an
nounced that he objected to the use of
large sums of money in the political
campaigns. because if the practice con-
tinued only wealthy men could hope to
obtain the higher offices. The election
was very close, and the results Will
probably depend upon the returns re-
ceived and the members elected from
some of the most remote provinces Of
Chile. The Chilean congress decided
to definitely determine who was elected
president at meeting to be held Sun
day, August 30 On account of the close
ness of the vote it was feared that rev.
olution may be attempted, no matter
which candidate is triumphant. There
is little talk of a third or compromise

WANTED TO DIE TOGETHER
Because Life Offered No Prospect OF
Happiness
Young Kansas Couple, Discouraged by
Poverty and Friends Opposition to
Their narriage, Seek Death

LEAVENWORTH, Kan, Aug. So
The mystery of the National hotel trag
edy was cleared away today when de-
tectives came here to care for the young
girl in her dying moments and to take
away the dead body of the man with
whom she sought to die. The girl is still
alive tonight, but has not regained con-
sciousness and cannot live.
The story revealed is one of innocent
love, poverty. and the seeking If death
to overcome troubles that were by no
means serious.
John Hartig, the dead man, was but
21 years of age, the son of poor farmer
of Connor station. Mary Bush, barely
10 years of age and quite pretty is the
daughter of poor section hand, who
works on the Missouri Pacific at Pom
eroy. The country youth and maiden
had met and loved, but when they pro-
posed marriage the girls father objec-
ted, though the mother bade her do as
she wished. Hartwig was without
means and met with little encourage
ment in his matrimonial aspirations
from his parents and brothers.

their marriage and what seemed to them
their dark prospects until death seemed
preferable to life.
Their journey to this city Friday night
and the tragedy which will undoubted-
ly result in the death of Goth, was the
result. From the train they went direct
to the National hotel.
When safely locked in their room
preparations for death seemed to have
been Immediately begun. The men who
broke into the room found both bodies
lying across the bed, both dressed as the
young people had come in from the
streets. Their hats lay side by side on
the table. together with the note stating
their determination to die and request

JAMESTOWN, N. Y, Aug. 30.-Mr.
and Mrs. William ]. Bryan enjoyed a
day Of ease after the week of campaign-
ing, which has included speeches in the
largest inland cities of the state, in two
or three farming centers and many short
ones from car platforms. Two or three.
and sometimes more, long speeches
have been made by Mr. Bryan each day,
and the intervals between have been
spent in travelling by train or carriage.
Every morning has seen him up at 9
o'clock, and not before / has he been
able to secure sleep. The week with him
has been one of unremitting toll, riding
after brass bands with fireworks flying
or cannon roaring in his ears. Even in
the queter moments at hotel tables and
in car seats there have always been a
dozen people at his elbow to shake his
hand, to try to talk politics or to tell
him how the campaign ought to be run.
He has even had to WELD a fork with
the left hand While writing autographs
with the right.
Despite this continuous strain, Mr.
Bryan was looking almost as fresh as
week ago when he appeared in the
hotel dining room this morning. His
voice has lost most of the huskiness
which at one stage of the tour threatened
! to bring II to an end.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan went to the First
! Presbyterian church. where they listened
to a sermon by Rev. Colville in the
morning Afterward they drove to
Lakewood, on Lake Chautauqua, twelve
miles from here, where they were en-
tertained by Norman E. Mack of Buf-
falo. Wherever they stirred curious
groups gathered about them.
Tomorrow Mr.. Byan leaves New York
state, probably to return in October,
when he will speak in Brooklyn and
other places.
In the morning brief visit will be
made to Chautauqua then a dash for
Cleveland, where Mr.. Bryan will speak
tomorrow night
Being shown newspaper statement
today that the owner of the largest hall
in Toledo, who is Republican, refused
to rent the hall for a Democratic meet
ing, Mr.. Bryan said he would tell the
Toledo Democrats that if the people
there wanted to hear him speak he will
speak on the prairie.
Word has been received that a plan
is on foot to pack the hall in Cleveland
with Republicans.
