TOO TENDER MOUTH.
Judge Carver Discusses Chief Good
wins Position OH Joints.

Assistant Attorney General Carver,
who formally presented his resignation
to Governor E. ". Hoch this afternoon,
gives Chief Of Police Goodwin an ex-
pertly performed "skinning."
He saw the interview printed in the
State Journal on Wednesday evening
in which the police chief announces that
he viii now close the joints, since Judge
Carver has stepped down from his job.
Carver takes the epidermis off Good
wins back in the following manner:
Yes, I have seen what Chief Goodwin
is reported to have said about my
hinderance of any effort on his part to
close the joints. What do I think about
it?
well, I think the chief is either a
humorist or something else, probably
the latter. I fear he is too tender in the
mouth He pretends restraint by the
tightening of reins that only exist in his
agination. The trouble with him did
not originate with my appointment rs
assistant attorney general for this coun-
ty. He was afflicted with joint color
blindness even before he became a citi-
zen of Topeka, or was elevated to the
position the powers of which he now
so jealousy guards from encroachnaer-.
4 am glad to know that he at last
realizes that all restraints, including
imaginary ones, have been removed, so
that now he may treat Topeka to a
genuine surprise by showing what an
officer who means it. and who has
hand full of authority. may accomplish
in the performance of plain duty.
He makes mistake in deferring ac-
ton until after the primaries. Such
super-sensatf tfveness is not becoming tC
an officer with such large powers. All
days, as all criminals, should look alike
to real guardian of the people. The
law abiding citizens of Topeka will try
to put up even with little grandstaud
playing if it only produces the proper
effect Some of our people are also from
Missouri. They are now waiting to be
shown whether the chief means it. and
whether he will hold out If he does. 1
for one viii sincerely commend him.
and the decent citizens of the city will
unite in showing appreciation of duty
Vel performed."

Not a Nan in His Seat When
Meeting Hour Arrived.
PLEA FOR THE WEST
Is Made by McCumber in Dis.
cussing Statehood.
Favor Making Separate State
of Indian Territory.

Washington, March S.-The senate met
at II o'clock, an hour earlier than as
ual, in order to afford additional time
for the discussion of the statehood bill,
but it looked for while as though that
object would be frustrated by the lack
of attendance on the part of senators.
When the hour for meeting arrived
not single seat in the chamber was
occupied, but as the vice president and
the chaplain entered through the north
door, Mr.. McCumber and Mr.. Gearjn
appeared at the opposite entrance and
Mr.. Teller and Mr.. Patterson came in a
few moments later. Other senators
were slow in arriving, and at HIS when
Mr.. McCumber began to speak on the
statehood bill less than a dozen sena-
tors were in their seats.
Mr.. McCumber introduced his speech
by presenting substitute for the
statehood bill creating one state of ok
lahoma and another of Indian Terri
tory, the latter under the name Of
Sequoya, in honor of the Cherokee
scholar of that name and entirely elm
mating New Mexico and Arizona. He
made an argument against the cOnsoN-
dat1on Of the territories into fewer
states, contending that more western
states were necessary to give the agri-
cultural and other trans-M mississippi i'll
terests strong representation in con-
gress. He predicted in the near future
the west would have a much larger pop
ulation than the east and he said that
even if present boundary lines were
preserved it would stin be impossible
to secure as many states as there were
east Of the Mississippi and therefore the
balance of power in the senate, must
necessarily be against the western sec
tjan.
Mr.. MeCumber declared that the
time would come when the east would
find its protection In the west He re
ferred to the influence of foreign i'm
migration in eastern communities and
In this connection said that at its last
election Chicago had elected a social
ist as mayor
When Mr.. McCumber closed. Mr..
Tilllnans gave notice that as soon as an
Opportunity oEsrs lie wfIl address the
senate on the message of the president
sent to the senate yesterday on the
coal inquiry resolution recently passed
by congress on Mr.. Tillman's motion.
He referred to the presidential mes
sage, as "A very remarkable docu-
sure to proceed with the statehood bill
he would ask to be heard at this time.
Mr.. Patterson then addressed the
senate on the statehood bill, speaking
in opposition to the passage of the
house bill. He devoted his attention
almost exclusively to the portion Of
the bill providing for the joining OF
Arizona and New Mexico and contend
ed that Arizona as now founded had
an unquesionable right to ultimate
statehood.

DEWEY NEARLY READY.
Big Dock VIII Resume It's Journey to
Manila March 12.

Washington. March S-The secre-
tary of the navy has received a cable
message from Commander Hosley,
commanding the fleet towing the dry
dock Dewey to the Philippines saw
ing that the repairs to the dock are
progressing at Las Palmas, and that he
expects to resume his journey to the
Mediterranean on the 18th instant.
He reported also that he did not
require the services of the cruiser
Tacoma which was sent to Las Pal
mas, with machinery for the dry dock.
Consequently the Tacoma sailed from
Las Palmas yesterday for Gibraltar
and will rejoin Admiral Sigsbee's feet
IN the Mediterranean later. This fleet
is now at Beirut and will go next to
Alexandria, where the ships will divide
one portion going to the Philippines
and the other returning to the United
States

M'KEEvER TO GET 1T.
Topeka Man VIII Be Governor Hoch's
Secretary.

Edwin D. McKeever, formerly as
sistant United States district attorney,
has been decided upon as private sec
retary for Governor Hoch to succeed
F. L. Williams. whose retirement is
likely to be announced at any time.
Governor Hoch has up to this time
made no formal tender of the position
to Mr.. McKeever, but the two men are
in communication through mutual
friends. Mr. McKeever has indicated,
in response to the proposition ad-
vanced. that he would accept the place,
and nothing now remains except to
formally close up the deal
Governor Hoch said this morning:
f'T am not yet ready to say who viii be
my private secretary when Mr.. Will
liams leaves. Mr.. McKeever is one of
those under consideration but I have
not talked to him, nor has he talked to
me. I do not know when Mr.. Williams
will retire. That is left largely to me-
Mr.. NfcKeever said: 'I have moth
ing to say. Information about this
matter should come from Governor
HOc1.' -

held only in three wards in the city
In the First. Third and Fourth wards
This is probably the first time in
years when so few primaries have been
held. 1t Is due to the decision on the
part Of the city central committee to
reduce expenses. Wherever no con

men or committeeman no primary is
held

asDirants for reelection or otherwise,
who were endorsed, were Councilman
S. A. SWendSOn, Councilman William
Green, candidate for reelection, and
r. Montgomery, who is running for
councilman from the Fourth ward
against s. s. Rice, the present incum-
bent, who is asking to be returned to
the council.
AS a meeting in the interests Of mu-
nicipal politics 1t was a success En-
thusiasm was rampant, probably con-
tagion was induced by the large num-
Der of women.
Following the meeting, at which the
principal topic was the registration Of
the women voters in the city, the
IN en- bers in attendance broke up in
ward caucuses. The Third ward sent
UP a large delegation and at the eau
took measures endorsing Councilman
Green and his record in the council and
pledgtng the support of the league An
attempt on the part of minority not
to endorse any candidate as council
man was swept aside.
Action Of a similar nature was taken
at the Fourth ward caucus at which
the endorsement Of p. Montgomery as
councilman was secured.
The arraignment which Councilman
S. "A. SWendsOn gave Mayor w. II.
Davis on the floor of the council was
warmly commended by the women and

COST OF CANAL WORK.
Safety of Proposed Dam Is called in
Question.

Washington. March 8.-Prof. Will
liam H. Burr today resumed his testi-
mony before the senate committee on
interOceanic canals. He estimated the
cost Of excavating per cubic yard at
from 40 cents, for steam shovel work
in low land work and 80 cents in Guile
bra cut to $3.50 for the most expensive
work to be encountered that of re-
moying rock under water.
The witness then took up the mi
nority report and gave technical testi-
mony concerning the borings made in
the vicinity of the proposed Gatun
dam. He said it was shown that the
character Of the soil was permeable
and that the safety of the proposed
dam may be questionable. The flow Of
water, he said. Indicated that it was
not artesian but produced from under
ground connections with the Chagres
river.
