WANTS ELECTORAL VOTE.
MADE UNANIMOUS,

Governor Chamberlain of Oregon,
has made the remarkable suggestion
that the members of the Electoral
College all vote for Roosevelt, and so
make his election as President unani-
nous.
The Electors have no moral right to
do so. The theory of the Constitution
was that they should deliberate and
select the best man for the Presi-
dency, but the rise and establishment
of party government in this country
has made a radical revolution in the
nature of the College. Its Constitu-
tional powers remain unchanged, but,
custom has made the Electors mere
machines to register the vote of the
several States. While the result Of
the recent election could not be af-
fected by the action proposed by Gov
ernor Chamberlain the course he sug-
gests would establish a dangerous
precedent.
If there is to be any change with
regard to the Electoral College it
should be abolished entirely, as a
piece of useless and antiquated ma
chinery, which often leads to trouble
and confusion in Presidential cleo
lions. There is no good reason why
the people should not vote directly
for Presidential candidates. This
need not involve any change in the
proportionate powers of the several
States with relation to the President
ial, office as now indicated by their
respective strength in the Electoral
College. Thus CALIFORNIA; popular
majority for any candidate would
simply count as ten Electoral votes in
his favor. And so with the other
States, in Ike proportions.-Bee,

Miss Genevieve Day, who assumes
the principal role in Sam 5. Shubert's
presentation of "A Girl from Dixie"
which is TO be presented at The Ken
lucky next Wednesday night, is in re-
atty real Dixie" girl having been
born in Tamarack, Nd, and passed
most of her life below the Mason and
Dixon line. A peculiar coincidence hap
pened when Mr.. Harry b. Smith, the
author of the piece selected Miss Days
home as the seat of action for this
play. Mr.. Smith spent several weeks in
Tamarack selecting data and ideas TO
'instill into his libretto. While there he
met Miss Day, and Immediately be-
came infatuated with the idea that she
would be typical heroine around
whom to write, so, all unknown to Miss
Day, he made a study of her ways and
actions as being typical southern girl.
The idea then occurred TO him to try
and induce Miss Day to take part in
the piece. One evening he broached the
subject TO her, and to his surprise and
delight discovered that she had been on
the stage for three seasons, and was
simply spending her vacation at her old
home. Mr.. Smith Immediately offered
her an engagement as the Dixie Girl
Miss Day accepted. That his selection
was a wise one has been proved time
and again by the cordial reception and
praise which both the press and public
have accorded Miss Day. One enthusi-
astic writer remarked that "she was as
sweet as the perfume Of the magnolia
This beautiful comparison did not es-
cape the astute eye Of the manager and
ever since he has used il as a caption in
all of his advertising. Musical critics
applauded Miss Days musical voice,
while the dramatic writers applauded
her acting as of the highest order
You'll like this girl from Dixie" said

Conrad Weisman Will Be Tried at

Numbering a Proml.
nent Farmer.

Conrad Weigman will be tried at
Spencer this week for the murder of
Henry N. Deeter, who was detected
taking dummy package of $1,000
from a threshing machine some months
ago. Deter was prominent farmer.
j. A. Spies, who lived near Graettin-
ger received letter about April
telling him to deposit $1,000 in the
weight box of stacker which stood
few miles east of Graettinger. Spies
gave the letter to the sheriff, who tele-
graphed for detective from Chicago.
A dummy package was made up and
placed by Mr.. Spies in the weight box.
The Chicago detective hid in the straw
stack near the stacker till o'clock in
the morning when Weigman took his
place. Soon after the detective had
gone Deeter approached with gun in
hand. After circling the stack he
took the dummy packet from the box
aud left. He was ordered to halt and
put down the gun. Weigman claims
that instead of complying Deeter
shifted the gun as though to use it,
and that he then shot Deeter to pro.
tect himself. Feeling has run high in
Palo Alto county against Weigman
for shooting. Officers sought to Sc
cure confession from Deter, but he
denied writing the letter and claimed
he had merely taken a wranch from
the box. An investigation Of his
home discovered a writing tablet on
which was the impression of the word
