the race. acted as both temporary and
permanent chairman. Governor Bailey
did not attend the convention.
Mr.. Stubbs on taking the chair, said, in
part:
The movement which is responsible for
the presence of these delegates here to-
day, is, In my judgment. the product OF
seed sown and standards raised all over
this fair land by the greatest President
of the greatest nation in the world to-day.
Theodore Roosevelt demands higher
standard of morals, integrity and general
qualifications in public service than any
President in recent years.
Roosevelt, as l understand it, would
condemn as the worst of the crimes all
profit of every kind by State officers at
the expense of the people.
RooseVeltism demands absolute loyalty.
fidelity and faithful service from public
servants TO their employers.
The object Of this movement is to give
to Kansas an honest. patriotic. business
like state government: The success of the
movement will depend entirely on the re-
suits attained. We have made prom
ises. which the people of Kansas have ac-
cepted and by their votes at the primaries
good, and an honest earnest and per-
sistent effort must be made to redeem
every promise. If we fail. we cannot ex-
pect to retain the confidence of the peo.
then. will our victory be complete.
Now that the battle is over, 1t remains
for Mr.. Hoch and his associates to show
the people of Kansas that they not only
have the ability, but the inclination to
make good their promises.
For myself, want to say now and here
that In the distribution OF State patron
age l desire Mr.. Hoch to feel absolute
freedom, to use 1t. in the first place. so
as to give the State the best possible serv-
ice. and next. to make the Republican
party of Kansas one harmonious. united.
solid. compact organization. And 1 sin
cerely hope and trust that the men who
have been prominent in this movement will
prove to the people of Kansas that their
efforts have been unselfish, by upholding
Mr.. Hoch in his effort to build up and
strengthen the party"
Mr.. Stubbs had been greeted with
thunder of applause upon assuming the
chairmanship. and when he concluded his
speech he was again warmly cheered.
\The first break between the machine
and antimachine elements came when an
anti made a motion. which was adopted,
to appoint Dan Dyer sergeant-at-arms,
thus deposing c. NJ. Irwin of Wichita,
who had been named, as is customary, by
the chairman of the State Committee. Ir-
wins assistants refused to serve under
Dyer, removed their badges and opened
the doors. Other assistants were immedi-
ately appointed

In Circular Letter TO Miners He
Asks That Terms Be
Considered.
BL00DLESs BATTLE BEST.
Sentiment Indicates That Those
Against Making Terms in Con
yention Are Now For Ac-
cepting Scale Offered.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
indianapolis. Ind. March "a circular
letter of five typewritten pages. addressed
to the heads of the various departments of
the United Mine Workers districts in
which the question of strike is being con-
sidered has been prepared by President
Mitchell and other national officers and
will be sent out tomorrow.
While the officers disclaim any intention
of trying to control the suffrages Of the
miners. they claim the right to state facts
as they exist. and to point the disadvan-
taees that might arise to miners as indi-
viduals and the organization by rejecting
the operators reduced wage scale and go
ing out on strike.
The circular sets out that it has always
been the policy of the organization to win
its victories by bloodless battles. and that
through peaceful means. Both sides Of
the question are candidly given. and it is
expected that it will prove effective in Sc
curing votes that might otherwise be
against reduction.
The little that has reached headquarters
here from the districts of Indiana and Illi-
nois regarding sentiment among the min
ers leads to the hope that the districts,
which were a unit practically against the
operators in the recent convention, are
beginning to see the situation in the light
in which the national officers have tried
TO show it to them, and that larger per-
centage of the votes than was expected
at first will now be cast for accepting
terms.

Mr.. Hoch's nomination was made by ac-

F. Dumont Smith, who said:
1T would be idle to ignore the fact
that there has been a fight. Some of the

it may be, are yet bleeding, but time will
heal the one and efface the other.
The purpose and object of this great
convention is not merely to record the

SHOULD ASSESS
ONLY HALF BLOCK.
Supreme Court Decides That
Word Lot in Amended
Charter Provisions is
Misinterpreted.

The Supreme Court handed down a de-
cision yesterday in the case of Meier
against the city of st. Louis, holding that
the method of assessing property for
street Improvement in district divisions is
unconstitutional.
By the decision the Charter amendments
were not affected. The Kaufman and
Collier cases. against the Western Paving
Company. and bearing upon the same
points, were also decided, the decisions
sustaining the rulings of the St Louis
Circuit Court.
that only one-half block shall be in
cluded In the assessment district. for the
purpose of raising the pro rata share of
three-fourths of the cost of Improvement.
and that the definition of the word "lot''
in the amended charter does not change
the provisions thereof for establishing
district lines.
THE court holds that the district lines
should have been drawn midway between
Euclid avenue and Kings highway from
Lindell avenue through the Kaufman
and Collier property. to fix the easternli line
of the Improvement district and that the
western line should have been drawn mid
way between Kings highway and Union
avenue. from Llndell avenue north to the
north line of Portland place.
The substance of the decision is TO re-
Guire a reassessment of taxes for the i'm
rrovement Of Kings highway and the is
suance of new tax bills against each prop
erty holder for his proper proportion of
the cost of the Improvement. If any prop
erty owner has paid his tax bill and paid
too much he will be entitled to have the
difference refunded. If any owner has not
paid sufficient amount he will be cred
tied upon the new tax bills the amount 80
paid and be liable for the difference.
The decision does not affect the validity
of charter provisions with respect to street
improvements. and does not affect the
validity of any ordinance for street con-
struction under which contracts have been
let. or held in allegiance, for the city
officials can easily conform to the ruling
of the Surreme Court in issuing tax bills
in the future by establishing improvement
districts as thereby required.
