WILL CONFER WITH SEARLEs
ABOUT THE ART INSTITUTE
What Shall BE done Toward Re-
establishing the Institution.

Captain Robert Fletcher. director Of
the Art Institute and its guiding spirit.
has gone East to confer with William
Searles in regard 20 the future OF the
Art Association. 1t is not generally
known that Searles holds any pro-
prietorship in the Art Institute prop
critics. but the fact that nothing can
be done toward rehabilitation without
his authority is proof that he does.
1t is true that the Art Institute is
shiliated with the University OF Cali
fornia. in which relationship the in
stitute escapes the burden of taxa
tion. While il would seem to be State
property, il is not Neither is ii the
property in fee simple of the directors
Of the Art Association.
Neither they nor the regents OF the
university are empowered to proceed
as their policies would dictate with
out consultation with Mr.. Searles
However. his deep interest in the in
stitution founded by his wife is sufi-
cient guarantee that he will pursue
the best possible policy for it's up
building.
Captain Fletcher was wisely chosen
as the emissary to the philanthropist.
as he is thoroughly familiar with every
detail OF the association and the
school.

RELIEF COMMITTEE WORKERS
DEMAND THEIR SALARIES
Mem Who Have Lnbored Like Turks
Resent Major Putnam's Refusal
to Pay Them.

Major Putnam, of the regular army,
has refused to pay the thousand or
more men who have been working in
relief camps. They were allowed from
sl.50 10 50 a day by the H. ]. Crocker
committee and were paid in full up
to the time of the transfer of the bust
ness on May 4, when the army took
charge.
When committee waited on Major
Putnam yesterday he fatty refused to
pay them anything. You are volun-
teers." he said, "and should never have
been paid anything"
But we were paid before and were
never notified of our discharge" said
the spokesman of the party.
But the argument was of no avail.
so the men who have been carryfn z
bundles and doing other hard work
from a. m. till p. m. daily have de-
cided to organize as a body and protest
against their treatment.

OUT IN KANSAS.
Strong Probability of Election of a Dem
 ocratic Governor.

Strong Probab1Iity or Eiecti0n oh D
 ocratic Governor.
 Washington Herald.
 Kansas is State of contradictions' Tn proportion to population there are more pensioners of the civil war in kt< as than in any other State. At times l.rpuh'ican najorities have been greater than Tn any other State. At other times Denocratic majorities have been as large as in some of the rcckribbed Democratic States Pop uism reached its highest development In Kansas and it's electoral vote was given to Weaver in 1899: In that year the kansans elected as Congressman at-large the Hon. William A. Harris, a Eirginian by birth and .n ex- Confederate soldier. Four years lat CT Kansas sent Harris to the United States Senate. All of these political paradoxes have occurred In Kansas In fourteen years At present former Sentor Harris Is the Democratic candidate for governor of tho Sunflower State, and reports indicate rho possibility of his election. The issue of the campaign Is queer one. as all political ts'- sues in Kansas It is that Governor Hoch, the Republican candidate for re-elec- tion caused to be instituted in the name of Kansas d suit for the award to the Mis- scuri, Kansas and Texas Railroad. a Kan sas corporation. three million acres of lanc fin the Indian Territory, the value there of based upon tentative land grant in the original charter of the company The case has been before the Federal courts once or twice and has been lost. The charge against Governor Hoch Is that he caused the present suit to be instituted at the behest of William D Rockefeller. who is believed to be the principal owner of Nj. K and T. stock. It Is unnecessary to state that the Kansas have been lashed into mighty fury by this peculiar issue. and that the result of the gubernatorial con- teset at least in doubt.
