THREE FIRES IN ONE HOUSE.
Chief WiImarth Mystified by North
Topeka Blaze.

What Chief Wilmarth says is one
of the most mysterious fires that ever
came under his observation occurred
this morning. 1t really was a, pair of
fires with a third one looming up in
the not far distant past.
At 1890 this morning, Mayor Ber-
gundthal sent in a telephone alarm of
fire at 1920 North Jackson. At the
same instant box was pulled, which
called the department to the same
place two story dwelling owned
was burning. The whole roof of the
main building was in flames. and 1t
required a stream of water to stop
the trouble urF 5tTc -
An investigations oof the premises
showed that some time within the
past 4 8 hours, a fire had started on
the first floor between the Studd1ng
of a partition, and had burned out
the inside of the partition. but had
gone out without setting fire to the
rest of the house. 1t has no connec-
ton whatever with the fire in the roof
Neighbors discovered on Sunday after
noon that there had been a fire in the
studding, but it was all out when they
found what had occurred.
The department returned to quar-
ters at about o'clock. and at 1855
this morning was again called by
telephone and box 4 to the same
house This time the roof of the
kitchen was in a blaze. The kitchen
roof and it was nearly all burned Off
before the department arrived The
loss on each fire was about $50
The fire department records set
down the cause as unknown. but 1T
looks like the work of an incendiary.

Belated Report IF Trouble at
Denver Meeting.
Part of Delegates Walked Out of
Convention.
THINGS ARE QUIETER.
Little Heard About Strike of
BOilermakers.
General Manager Nudge Says
Company Has No Trouble.
THINGS ARE QUIETER.

The details of the machinists' con-
vention at Denver last week, at which
Fourth Vice President T. L. Wilson
of the machinists' union presided,
have reached the machinists at To-
peka.
1.-The convention did not go off
smoothly as was given out in the
newspaper reports" vas the state
ment of one man this morning, whose
sympathies have not been with the
strike movement.
1.-The fact is" he continued. that
there is friction between Vice Presi-
dent Wilson and President O'Connell
and the executive board of the Inter
national Association of Machinists
Mr.. Wilson as fourth vice president is
in charge of the western affairs or the
association, but when the strike was
first decided upon the executive board
decided to keep Mr.. Wilson off from
the lines of the Santa Fe. Later when
I'M was seen that Mr.. BuckaleW was
progressing as well as had been
hoped and when Mr.. Wilson wanted
so much to come to take charge of
the Santa Fe strike. it was decided TO
let him come.
THE report has reached me con-
corning the recent convention at
Denver. It was not a beautiful love
feast as il would seem to appear from
the newspaper stories which Mr. Will
son gave out in Denver. 1t seems that
at this convention there were about SO
delegates. Among them was one of
the members of the executive board
Mr.. Wilson in making a speech to the
convention took occasion to speak in
an insinuating manner of the execu-
tive board, and the member of the
board who was present made a reply
to Mr.. Wilson and bolted the conven-
ton, taking about half or more than
half the delegates with him.
1.-THE remainder of the delegates
are the ones who decided to assess all
the members of the association dol
lar a month each to support the
strike.
1T is a question in my mind" he
said. IF this assessment is ever col
lected. Take the situation here in
Topeka for instance. Some of the
members of the association were be-
hind in their dues when the strike was
declared and the associa ton would
not allow them the weekly stipend
given to the strikers. The machinists
all over the country are being taxed
to support strikers in various places,
and it does not seem to me like the
assessment will be collected of the
over this line.
1T is announced that Mr.. Buckalew

that he does not unlawfully hold it
Mrs. Fanny Mcmillan and her son
Archie were taken up by the police
Saturday Afternoon for having taken
wheel belonging to R. B. Blaine of
1125 Taylor street Mrs. Mcmillan
claimed that the wheel was given to
her boy by a lady near the residence
of r r. Blaine. The story did not
hang very we'll together and failed to
take with the court. Judge Hamilton
assessed $40 and costs amounting to
rs cents. The wheel was valued at
$40.
T. NJ Frisbee was arrested Saturday
afternoon at the instance of his son,
Norman B. Frisbee. The charge was
one of disturbing the peace and is the
outcome of family quarrel. The
Frisbees live on East Fourth street
and the complainant runs a restaur-
ant at that location. The matter will
be aired this afternoon before Judge
Hamilton.
The police made a large haul on a
disorderly house at the northwest cor

From the Nashville American.
 Cheering news for democrats comes from Indiana. The outlook in that state is growing brighter every day. The demo- crats of all shades and views are getting on their fighting clothes in the war against Rooseveltism. If this spirit of unity and enthusiasm continues to grow until the election. Indiana may be count ed as democratic. More interest now cen- ters in that state than in New York, which is regarded as safely democratic. With New York and Indiana democratic the democratic ticket ought to receive enough votes in other states to elect 1t. The news from West Virginia Is not wholly encouraging, but that state af- lords fighting ground with fair chance of democratic success.
 It Is yet twenty-three days until the election, and predictions as to the re- suit in the doubtful states are mere guesses There has already been a marked change in the outlook in more than one state, and many changes may occur be- fore the election. So far most of the changes have been favorable to the dem ocrats, and the democratic prospect at this juncture Is more encouraging thar ever, and seems to be steadily improv- ing

Liberty Better Than Colonies.

Judge Parker's speech of last week at Rosemount before couple of visit ing clubs deserves more than passing notice. In it he brought out in the dearest light the issue that many deem the chief one of the campaign. He explained the administration Phil ippine policy in all it's vicious bear ings, committing not only himself but the democratic party to liberty and government with the consent of the governed.
 He shows in the first place the ef- fleets of colonial subjection upon the Filipinos themselves. They are with out just and laudable ambition. They are discontented, and they are ruined agriculturally and commercially. The legislation we have forced upon them in the very teeth of our boasted prin- ciples as set forth in the Declaration of Independence, does not fit them. It flinders the development of their re- sources, and they can deal neither with us nor with any other nation.
 But wretched as our policy in the Philippines has been to the unfortun- ate Filipinos, it promises to be still more injurious at home, for that policy is a big forward step towards a gen eral imperialistic policy. It means that we are drifting from republic to an empire, from liberty to materialism.
 The voter of next month must choose between the two lines of policy. If he prefer the ideas of the fathers of the republic, he will vote for Alton Brooks Parker If he desires to go world-powering, seizing at every oppor- tunity defenseless peoples, he will vote for Theodore Roosevelt
 Judge Parker defined the issue at Rosemount last week clearly and plain ly and fairly. He did not indulge in any exaggeration whatsoever. He pre-. sented the issue as it comes to the people this year, and the voter who desires to understand it should read again that speech from end to end.
