TOPEKA, Kan, May 21.-Republican
leaders declare that w. A. Harris, dem
ocratic candidate for governor, who
lives at 81 Forty-fifth street, Chicago,
is not a legal resident of Kansas, and
that he cannot vote at the general cleo
ton in November, and in consequence
could not qualify as governor if elected.
The opinion is based upon the certifica-
ton of democratic candidates to the
secretary of state, which shows that
w. A. Harris is a resident of Leaven-
worth county. Six years ago Mr.. Har-
ris sold his stock farm and all his per-
sonal property at Linwood, it is claim
ed, and since then, it is further alleged,
he has paid no taxes in the state, nor
has he voted at any general election
since 1900.
1t is certain that republican leaders
will test the right of Mr. Harris. who
is dubbed the mail order" candidate,
should he be elected in November. 49,

FOR THE JOHN KNOX Anniversary
Big Celebration in Honor Of the Noted
Scotch Reformer Was Held
Yesterday.

NEW YORK, May 21-The four
hundred and first anniversary of the
birth of John Knox the Scottish re-
former, statesman, writer and one Of
the fathers of Presbyterianism, was
celebrated throughout the world yes
terday by special religious services in
all Presbyterian churches. In the
churches of this city sermons on John
Knox were preached in the morning
Although it is an established fact that
John Knox was born in 1915, the month
and day of his birth are not known
May has been selected, probably, for
the observance because this month is
notable for the great non-intrusion
movements in Scotland. Last year the
four hundredth anniversary was cele-
brated with particularly impressive
ceremonies in all Presbyterian churches
in Great Britain and in this coun-
try.

throughout the northwest, but must
be shipped entirely over the Northern
Pacific lines.
There may arise the interesting ques-
ton Of joint shipments from King
county mines to Portland, where much
of the house coal and considerable
steam coal mined here is sold. From
the mines of Black River junction the
coal is carried over the Pacific Coast
company's own railroad; from there to
its destination by the Northern Pa
cific. Railroad attorneys are undecid-
ed whether such shipments should be
cut of. If the law is far-reaching
enough to reach such coal shipments,
the Pacific Coast company would lose
valuable market. And, incidentally,
Portland would be in bad way for
coal If it could not buy from one of
the coal-producing roads.
