FATHER OF REFORM
SPELLING AT FAIR
Ben Pitman. Oldest Reporter III
America. Urges Phonetic Or
biography at Stcnoera-
piers Convention.

Ben Pitman. the inventor Of phonetic
mode of spelling. and probably the Oldest
reporter in the United States. delivered an
interesting address yesterday before the
third days session OF the National Short
hand Reporters Association at the
Worlds Fair.
Nr. Pitman gave an interesting account
OF his army experiences in his long career.
and mentioned the fact of his reporting
the trial of the assassins Of Abraham Lin
coin
He also advocated "fonetic'' spelling in
q paper ke delivered on -Phonosraphy
as the Pioneer Of Phonetic Reform He
said that it has been computed that The
adoption of i phonetic mode of spelling
would save the people of the United
States 100000 day.
In the discussion following the paper it
was argued that the introduction of
phonetic spelling would destroy all the
sentiment and association that attaches
to our best works OF literature.
The first paper on the programme an
article by President BeaIs was postponed

There is no question as to the brutal and
essential facts The commander Of a Rus
sian tcrpedo-boat destroyer went to Che-
zoo after . sortie from Port Arthur. He
declared to the Chinese authorities that
he would remain in that neutral port abso-
!utely under conditions prescribed by the
law o. nations.
He unscrewcd the guns and removed
them and the other weapons and the am
nunition. These he delivered to the Chinese
authorities. and she was Ii the situation

CHINAS RESPONSIBILITY.
Surely We cannot be bound longer to
respect the neutrality OF China If China
will not respect 1t herself We certainly
cannot overlook this act any further than
We can overlook similar acts in the future
Japan seems determined not only not
to recognize the neutrality Of China. but
not to recognize international law and
yet Europe and the United States are
pledged to the neutrality OF CHINA ana 10
the observance Of interna tionai law.
The importance of this thing, as 1t ap-'
pears to me. IS that if nothing is done
the great act of Mr.. Hay in Keeping
China out OF the confict-an act whlcn
we all recognize as making for the peace
of the world-becomes absolutely null and
void.
was seeking to force China into war. A
few incidents like this will force war on
China perhaps. Look AT the rnassins oi
Chinese troops on the Irors.ers' oeicers nys
and are now under japanese officers
PERIL WORLDWIDE.
The ending of the neutrality OF China
opens up all eventualities. 1t is In the
interest of the entire world. once and for
all. to put an end 10 this menace. We
are at ,:ar with japan II may be some
other Power next Then this nation tha1
has done these things at Chemu!po and
Chefoo will continue Its same tactics un-
less halt is called. And SO in time we
will fall back on the laws Of war which
governed in the old days
What have you to say about the prog
ress of the war;
We will bring il to an end at our own
terms. 1t may be two years. 1t may be
three years But We Will bring Il to an
end at our own terms.
II see Japan now. instead of returning
our destroyer to Chcfoo and restoring her
to the Chinese is seeking TO bully China
and compel her to send from other harbors
other Russian ships which have been
similarly disarmed and dismantled. Thus
the situation becomes additionally grave.
I cannot hep think that out OF the Chcfoo
will grow very big consequences.

| st. Joseph. No, aug. lS.-A new ruling
by Chairman Thompson may be the means

quired tvo-thirds vote. The ruling was
on a motion by Boss Miles Of Eockport

the two-thirds rue. but the chair stated
that the rules of the last Legislature.
which he had read since the last session Of
| this convention, declared that majority
was sufficient in such cases. and these

This was a blow to the Buchanan Coun-

zation in the hands of the opposition in
case the matter OF a nomination Is re-
ferred back to the people.

of change in the result.
During the afternoon the vote was taken
by secret ballot. allowing the delegates to
vote individually. but it made little diff
ference. Nodaway County did a little
flirting then, but not enough to cause any
of the other delegations to consider 1t Sc
riously.
BUCHANAN DECLINES COMPROMISE.
Word WAS sent to the Buchanan County
delegation tLis afternoon that a compro-
mise could be arranged by which Buchan-
an would be permitted to name any man
in St. Joseph except Congressman Coch-
ran. The offer was declined.
Since the rules may be suspended by
majority, II Is possible that a dark horse
will erter the race tomorrow. This has
been impossible heretofore. since Buchan-

vent it. James Todd Of MaryVilIe Ia the
