DOWN WITH THE SHIRT TAIL,
CRY OF KANSAS FARMERS

Down with the shirt will be the
campaign cry among the Kansas farm
ers this fall. Not that the agricultur-
lists wish to do away with that part
of the male atti e which is tucked
within the trousers; not that they
are favoring a return to Adamic
simplicity in matters of dress-oh no!
Down with the shirt" means. rather
a lengthening of that garment, an ad-
dition of one inch front and rear to
the tails that are never displayed
to the public gaze except from the
backyard line on washing DAY.
Behind the movement is great al
truistic purrose-a benediction to
host of children of the soil. Unionism
is rampant on the prairies of the Sun
flower state, and the farmers are being
urged to form themselves into league
for the amelioration of the entire
brotherhood the raising Of the mort
cages, the selling of the crops, etc.
When a doubter asks skeptically,
How can a farmer help anyone ex-
cept himself?" one of the torchbear-
ers of the new faith, the editor of
farming journal, answered; why,
we could sell the entire cotton crop
of the United States at a high rate
simply by taking thought and adding
an inch to the tail of our Shirts
The scoffer was covered with con-
fusion and The slogan, Long shirts
aud a grand piano on every cotton
ranch" is now ringing through the
commonwealth The farm periodical
has begun vigorous campaign of ed
ucation for an extension of the shirt
tail. If the movement takes root
it is expected that walking delegates,
wearing their shirts outside of their
overalls la Chinois, in order TO tes
tify their good faith, will travel from
farm to farm bearing a yard stick
and calling every Cincinnatus from the
pillow to be measured.
Just step behind this tree, and
let's see if you belong to the union,
pardner," will replace "How's crops?"
as a greeting, and woe be unto him
who refuses to disrobe.
The idea is being taken seriously
IN many localities, but the Republican
and Democratic state campaign COM
mittees steadfastly refuse to incor-
porate it into their platforms. Messrs.
Ryan and drummer, the respective
state chairmen, argued that the
lengthening of the shirt might be
menace to the modesty of the entire
nation, in the event of light crop.
THE supply might be used up prema-
turely, and we would then have to
wear shirts without any tails at all
during the winter" they declared with
manifestations Of fright.
Revision of the tariff was the issue
which led to the Haunting of the shirt
tail throughout the state. Colonel w.
A. Harris, Democratic candidate for
governor, favored tariff reform with
vigor in his letter Of acceptance. The
editor of the Farmers Advocate, in
commenting upon Colonel Harris
words, calculated that the addition OF
one inch to the shirt-tails of the ma
tion would consume the entire cotton
crop and prevent any expectation.
The argument ran up and down the
state like wild-fre. and is now upon
every farmers lips.
II has not, however, the sanction OF
Governor Hoch, whose private seore-
tary. Charles Sessions. said for him:
''This issue Of the shirt-tail seems
to be about the limit"

CUBAN AFFAIRS

RESULTS EXPECTED
FROM GREAT HURRICANE THAT

CoAsT-Ble FLAGLgR hotels
AND FISHING INDUSTRY WILL
SUFFER SEVERELY.
Special to The Journal.

Jacksonville, Oct. 1S.-Although
the wires along the East Coast are
down, enough is known of the condi
tions prevailing there to anticipate a
disastrous result of the great hurri-
cane that is now raging along the
coast.
From St. Augustine. south to the
Keys, the coast is low and completely
exposed to the weather; and, while
1t is true that all the great tourist
hotels and local industries are located
on the western shore of the Indian
river-which is nothing more than
great lagoon, three miles wide in
places, divided from the open sea by
a narrow peninsula--much damage
must have been done
This peninsula will naturally break
the force of the storm to some extent,
but it is probable that in spite Of
everything, the fishing industry,
which while. concentrated mainly at
Miami and Fort Pierce, is spread
more or less along the entire river,
must have suffered severely
The streets of Miami are known TO
be under water, and this means that
the entire river bank is swamped.
No damage is as yet reported to
any of the great Flagler hotels at
Miami and Palm Beach, but as these
houses are built of wood, they are
poorly adapated to stand such a gale
as this.
Great apprehension Is felt for the
safety of thousands Of men employed
on the East Coast Extension from
Miami to key West. The solid road
bed is considered safe. but as many
of the men are living on the low-lying
keys Or domiciled on house-boats, it
Is difficult to see how some disasters
could have been avoided.
The worst is feared for Key West,
which Is situated ON low-lying
island, fully exposed to the fury Of
the gale.

who was married to Butler in that
city on April 16. 1904.
The first Mrs. Butler was Miss
Celia Duerr of Butler county, whom
he married in 1899. When Butler
brought his Florida wife north she
found a package of letters which led
her to investigate. She got into cor
respondence with wife No. 1, and a
meeting was arranged In the mean
time Butler had married Miss Pearl

The district attorney took the state

acknowledged the truth of their

three women for the purpose of iden-

young and pretty, pointed him out

Dredge Caucus to Commence
Cutting Channel This Morning

The big dredge Caucus, owned by
the engineering department of the
army, has been secured temporarily
by the navy department and this
morning she will commence the work
of dredging channels to the stranded
and wrecked naval vessels, which
have been On the beach since the hur-
ricane.
The Caucus has been converted into
stationary dredge, and the refuse,
instead of being sucked into the bins
of the vessel, will be carried off by
pipes. She is now in position to COM
mence the work which has been as
signed her, and it is anticipated that
some time will be required before all
of the vessels are f1oated.
The first channel is to be cut from

high and dry, and then it is antic-
ipated that a channel will be dredged
to the Gloucester. 1t is believed that
this is the only means by which the
vessels can be floated and saved.
The big steamer Abarenda has ar
rived here from the Norfolk navy
yard with a complete wrecking outfit
on board, and as soon as the channels
are made by the Caucus she will be
used in floating the vessels. The Tes-
sci has on board boilers, hosting
engines, ropes of all sizes, hawsers,
and tackle of all descriptions.
No attempt has been made to float
the Spanish dry dock, but as soon as
a new propeller is CITED on the Os-
ceola, which will probably be today
the work will be resumed by the three
big navy tugs.

from the sea of the gulf. A lookout

located at stations, will be erected at

compel the alderman to surrender the

the ground that he did not reside in

his reply has stated that his resi-

to erect. The commissioners, how
