THIRD PARTY IS LAUNCHED
Movement Having Support Of
Bryan Is Started.
MEETING AT KANSAS CITY.
Design 10 to Got Organization to Name
Presidential ADMINISTRATIONS Ad-
socates Public Ownership and Income
Tax--Initiative and Referendum.

Kansas City, Mo-, June 21.-.sThe al
lied third party movement" which it's
promoters hope will result before 1904
IN national organization strong
enough to name presidential nom
lnee, was launched here in the after
noon. 1t was the outcome Of con-
ference of reformers from the ranks
OF the old parties, and it's principles
are said by some to have been adopted
with a view of fitting the views of
William J. Bryan. The conference
was called by Lee Merriwether of St.
Louis, who with twenty-five other St.
Louis leaders in the public owner
ship party of that city came to Kan
sas City yesterday on visit to Mr..
Bryan at Lincoln, where the intentions
of the delegation had been laid be-
fore the Nebraska statesman. Mr.
Bryan, it was stated, had expressed
sympathy with the movement, if he
had not gone SO far as to support it.
At the conference there were repre-
sented populists of all persuasions,
public ownership advocates, free silver
republicans, socialists, single-taxeN
and Bryan democrats. 1t was stated
that it was proposed to form a third
party in Missouri, which should finally
be taken up by the dissatisfied in the
old parties from other states.
A committee on organization was
appointed and instructed to report in
the evening. The committee, which
represented each element present, SUBJ
mitted the following set of resolutions
as the new party's principles and they
were adopted:
Public ownership of all public utili-
ties, as railroads, telegraphs, etc. While
awaiting the legislation necessary to
secure public ownership, rigid control
of freight and passenger rates and Sc
we're penalties for rebates and other
determinations by railroads. Taxation
of railroads and other public utility
corporations in the same proportion
as the value of farm and other prep
erty. Direct legislation by the initial
i've and referendum to the end that
the people may initiate good legisla-
ton and veto bad legislation. A
graduated income tax to the end that
wealth, which receives government
protection, shall bear it's just share of
the cost of government. That what
ever is used as money shall be full
legal tender, issued by the general gov
eminent In sufficient volume for busi-
ness purposes, and that volume fixed
in proportion to population. Just cleo
ton laws throughout the state. Home
rule for cities and abolition of the
present system of using the police as
standing army to carry primary
elections in the interest of dishonest
politicians representing still more dis
honest special privileged corporations.

Once when the new bishop of Step
ney, the Right Rev. Cosmo Gordon
Lang, was dining with Queen Victoria
at Osborne, her majesty asked if it
was true that he had so large num-
Der of helpers. On being assured it
was so, she asked whether it would
not be wise to discharge three cur
ates and marry. But the vicar re-
piled: well, madam, if disagree
with my curates, we can part; but if
I were to disagree with my wife, it
might end in my having to leave my

What They Say of Us.

Now they say that certain Kenosha
Aldermen were bribed by agents of
street-car line. How would it do to
furnish armed guards for American
Aldermen as we'll as for American
sidents?-Chicago News.
WE do not know, of course, whether
or not any Kenosha Alderman has
been bribed, but Judging from the Ke-
uosha newspapers there has been
very general suspicion for long time
past that the passage of the street Car
ordinance in that city was attended by
frauds. Under these circumstances
both the public and the accused, if
they are under Just suspicion, should
welcome the fullest investigation.
The District Attorney Of Kenosha
county is evidently of the opinion that
there is ground for inquiry and he has
acted promptly. In that respect he is
unlike some city officials in some other
cities. We hope, if the charges are
true, that he will be able to reach out
to the man or men who offered or gave
brides to Aldermen or others.
There may be some paliation for the
poor man who can be tempted by of
fers of sudden riches far beyond what
he can hope honestly to earn in his
own trade or calling, but there can be
none for the rich man who offers the
temptation and seeks to corrupt pub
lie servant merely to add to his own
already all sufficient wealth.-Mil-
waukee Free Press.

Lawrence R0bIee Gets in Buggy
Without the Reins and the
Horse Dashes Away.
REV. G. K. STARkE RESCUES.
Minister Dashes Into Street and Catches
the Running Horse and is ORA eyed
For Some Distance.

Little Lawrence Roblee, a son of
Rev. and Mrs. H. S. Rob1ee, had very
narrow escape from being njured in a
runaway accident Thursday and
had it not been for the daring of Rev
@. K. Starke, of Evanston, a former
Kenosha pastor, the little boy would
have undoubtedly been badly injured.
The Rob1ee boy and a son of Henry
Cooper had gone to the barn of Mr..
Cooper to hitch up a horse to a trap.
In the barn the trap had been con-
nected with a surrey and when the
vehicles were pushed out of the car
rage house they were not discon-
nected. The horse was brought out
but the boys had forgotten to put
bride on him. Young Roblee climbed
into he buggy while the other boy ar
ranged the trappings Of the harness.
At this st2ge the horse became fright
ened and started to run. He tore
down South street at a terrific speed
and turned the corner at Chicago
street. Rev. Starke was coming along
the street and he rushed OLt into the
IOdu anu CduS III inc NOISE ny lHC u1duC
and halter. The frightened animal
gave leap in the air and dashed for
ward dragging the clergvma for some
distance, but the latter, with great
presence of mind managed to pull the
horse to one side of the road and ran
him into tree. One of the thi1ls was
caught about the tree and III this man
ncr the horse was stopped and the
youthful driver alighted from the
buggy very much frightened but not
injured.
The action of the minister in risk
ing his life to save the little boy was
heartily cheered by the large crowd of
pedestrians which had followed the
course of the running horse.
Rev. Mr.. Starke will carry back to
Evanston with him a number of
scratches which he received in his at
tempt to stop the horse. He was not,
however, seriously injured.

SAVE MIMIC WRECK.
Kenosha Life Saving Crew Inspected
by Inspector Reynolds, of
Chicago, Friday.
CREW MADE A SPLENDID SHOWING
Men are Required to Drill All Dav Long for
the Benefit of the Government Of1cial.
Talk of a New Station Revived.

Friday was gala day among the
members of the Kenosha Life Saving
crew, it being the occasion of the
semi-annua1 inspection of the KenOsha
station by Inspector W. E. Reynolds,
of Chicago. The inspector came to
Kenosha early Friday morning and all
day long the members of the crew
were kept at work going through the
different evo1utions arranged for them.
In the early morning the crew took
out the surf boat and went through the
entire work Of tipping and righting
the boat.
Clothes were changed and after the
boys had gone through long drill two
of the men were sent far out into the
lake beyond the North pier, while the
remainder of the crew proceeded to
rescue them. This mimic ship wreck
and rescue was one of the finest exhi-
billions ever given by the crew off ke-
nosha. The two men in the boat were
far out into the lake when the cry for
help was sounded and in very short
time the other members of the crew

over the hill launching it in the surf
just north of the pier. The lire was
shot over the North pier, distance of
little over three hundred yards, and
by means of this line the life boat was
pulled out to the boat which was sup
posed to be sinking. The two men
were then hauled ashore and the boat
was saved later in the afternoon.
The practice of the crew was watched
by large crowd of people who ap-
plauded the splendid work.
After the wrecked boat had been
saved the life savers returned to the
station and gave the different flag
drills, taking up both the army code
and the code prescribed for the use of
the men in the service on the lakes.
At the close of the days work In
spector Reynolds looked over the old
station and made many notes in re-
gard to the building of the new station
here. 1t is thought that the new sta
ton will be built early next spring.
Before leaving the city the inspector
paid pretty compliment to the Keno
sha crew by stating that the crew had
| always been considered one of the best
crews on Lake Michigan.

Roosevelt's Appointments.

IN the appointment Of William B.
Ridge1y, of Illinois, as Comptroller of
the Currency, and the announcement
of his intention to appoint DR.. Rlxey
as Surgeon General of the Navy,
President Roosevelt gives additional
assurance of his determination TO
carry out, not only the public policies
of the late President, but his priva te
wishes as well. Mr.. Ridgely is man
of wide experience in financial affairs
and, moreover, was the unanimous
choice of the banking interests of his
own State, and in appointing him
Roosevelt gives the business world ad-
ditiona1 cause to have confidence in
the new administration.
DIR. RiEey, who stands IN the very
front rank of his profession and is a
man eninent1y we'll fitted in every
way for the responsible position of
Surgeon General of the Navy, to
which it is proposed to elevate him,
was the personal choice of President
Mckinley. His unremittirg care Of
and devotion to Mrs. Mckinley during
her serious illness in California en-
deared him 20 the President personally
and he desired to have DR.. Rixey near
him in Washington. His faithfulness
and devotion to both the late Presi-
dent and Mrs. Mckinley during the
trying times of he past two weeks
have endeared him to us all and
Roosevelt could make no more popular
appointment.

Plans Are Made for the Construction of
Addition to First Baptist Church.


Plans have been drawn for the con-
struction of an addition to the First
Baptist church, and it is proba bic that
before many months are passed the
plans will be utilized a nd the capacity
of the church largely increased. Mr..
Kunk1e, the new minister of the
church, has started fund for the
addition and it will undoubtedly be a
success. The addition planned is the
erection of two new rooms on the
northwest corner of the present build
ing. These rooms will be built to
correspond with the remainder of the
building. One of the rooms will be
used for Sunday school room while
the second will be used as the general
office of the church.
Contracts have already been let for
a complete redecoration of the interior
of the building and with the new addi-
ton completed the Baptist church will
be one of the most commodious tenn
pies in the city.
Mr.. Kunk1e, the new minister, is

MEMORIAL SERVICES
In Bristol to Commemorate the Death of
the Late President Mckinley.

At the solemn to1ling of the bel
large audience gathered in the Metho-
dist church in Bristol villa ge on Thurs
day in response to the proclamation of
the President of the United States
that the people assemble in their
respective places of worship and pour
out from their hearts tribute of love
and veneration for President William
Mckinley.
The services were under the super
vision of Rev. J. E. Garrett, pastor of
the Methodist church. Several of the
older citizens were invited to seats on
the altar platform and made back
ground for the five reverend gentlemen
that occupied the front seats of the
altar.
A full choir, Mrs F. H. Lavey pre-
siding at the organ, opened the
exercises by singing that immortal
anthem, America" Every word,
every tone seemed like a new prayer
ascending to the throne of the eternal.
Rev. Elske, the pastor of the German
M. E. church, read the scripture
lesson, a selection from the psalms.
The choir then rendered ''Nearer,
My God, to Thee" bringing to
mind the tragical time when these
sweet words came on the Presidents
dying breath. Rev. Caspar, the pastor
of the Salem Methodist church made
the opening prayer. Following that
the choir rendered LEAD, Kindly
Light" President McKin1ey's favorite
hymn.
Rev. E. N. Andrews, pastor Of the
Bristol and Paris Congrega tiou al
church, was fttingly honored with e
invitation TO give the memorial ad-
dress. It was a fine effort and WAS
listened to with close attention and we S
highly appreciated. Rev. J. E. Care :
followed the address with some apprC :
pirate and heartfelt remarks on the
personal character OF President Nc
Kinley, with whom he had enjoyed a
personal acquaintance of twenty
years. His remarks were interesting
and appropriate.
Rev. Moore, Of the Liberty Cons =
gationa1 church, made the closing
prayer and gave the bencdiction. The
altar was pretti1y drapcd. A large
picture OF President Mckinley occr-
pied the wall at the rear of the altar
and portre IS of Presidents Liuco'n
and Garfield were hanging near.

LIBRARY NOTES.

Attention of borrowers is called to
the necessity Of Immediately reporting
at the library any change of residence.
If this request is observed the library
force as we'll as the public will be
saved much trouble, as without this
information notices of over due books
are very frequently sent to the wrong
address.
My attention has been called to the
misapprehension that may exist in the
minds of many of our borrowers as to
the correctness of the omission of cap
itals in our postal card notices. This
omission is in conformity with regular
only the first word of a sentence,
proper names and proper adjectives
should be capitalized.
About four hundred new books are
to be added to our rapidly growing IL
brary in the next week or two, which
will include upwards of one hundred
dealing with technical subjects such as
chemistry, physics, various kinds of
engineering, telegraph, telephone,
electric lighting, ETC., etc. A partial
list will be published as soon as the
books are received and prepared for
the shelves.
A new rule in regard to the transfer
of books from one card to another will
take effect on the first day of October.
This rule has been introduced with the
hope of securing a more impartial dis
tribution of new and popular fiction,
and is as follows: "Seven day books
are not transferable to any card what
soever. (MRs.) CLARA P. BARNS,
Librarian.
