GOODWIN WAKES UP.
Makes An Arrest ON Old Charge of
Maintaining Nuisance.

Charles Kerle was arrested at 318
East Fourth street last evenIno. for
keeping and maintaining a nuisance
This is the first arrest for this prevalent
crime in many weeks, and the police
had almost forgotten hOf. Chief Good
win had failed to explain his queer ac-
ton, and it may be presumed that Kyrle
had been advertising his business too
freely.
A key of beer and bottle Of whisky
were found in the place. Kyrle is held
under bond.
Since Assistant Attorney General Gar
yer gave it up for a bad job and ceased
to molest the jOintists, they have been
on easy street.
The long rest from persecution, how
ever, has been taken as an i'll omen by
many Of them, and they are preparing
for trouble. 1t may be possible that they
have an advance notice of something to
occur in the near future.

Il don't think that channel scheme
will amount to much said c. r. Jones
today. Il attended that mass meeting
in South Topeka and tried to secure
their cooperation in getting that sand
bar taken out and the trees and rubbish
to which I think is due the main trouble
from flood water. They didn't care to
take up with it thong l. They said the
channel would get the water past them
and that's all they would care for. That
won't help US who are living further
down stream though. I have lived here
since 1881 and never until recently have
we been bothered with high water. Now
the water flows over the banks and
floods the surrounding land; it did it
twice last year. We are willing to give
money towards cleaning up the bed and
would be glad to do it. I shall lay
the matter before the county commits
sioners and see if ] can't get them to
help us. The digging Of those. channels
looks more to me like political scheme
than anything else. Thi.. other would
be a great deal cheaper and would be
every bit as effective and more so. You
can't get that water out unless you
give it a chance in a clean channel The
sand bar was only formed here during

there was a further substantial advance
before II o'clock. Reading was the prin-

ing which carried Analgamated Copper
back to the lowest and Smelling 2ss points

JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER
IN BIG TRAIN CRASH
Gets a Good Shake-Up, Pokes His Head
Out of Window, Finally
Grows Calm.

NEW YORK, May 3.-John D. Rookie
feller was a passenger on a Jersey Cen
trail train which had a narrow escape
from serious accident just after leav-
ing Red Bank for its run 10 Jersey
City at 40 O'Clock yesterday afternoon.
A cylinder head on the engine blew
out, a piston rod broke and crashed
through the locomotive cab, barely miss
ing the engine driver, and then the
train came 10 such sharp stop that
everyone in the cars was shaken up.
Like other occupants Of the Pullman
cars, the Standard Oil chief had his
window raised and then inauis!tiveIy
pOked out his head, which was pro-
tected by his customary black skull cap.
He could not ascertain the cause OF
the trouble in that way. so he sent his
valet out 70 investigate. He was not
content until he had learned the extent
of the accident and that no one had
been killed or injured.

Free Seed Graft.

The Hon. John Wesley Canes,
statesman and member of Congress
from Tennessee, presented docu-
mentary evidence to the House re-
Gently in proof of the fact that
the great masses, the plain people
at least" are not only willing 70
receive garden seeds distributed by
a generous government. but actual
ly cry for them. Certainly some of
the constituents of Mr.. Gaines dis
trict have really asked for free
seeds.
Such testimony is important, al
though not necessarily convincing.
There are many persons who will
take anything they can get for
nothing. If Representative Gaines
had it in his power 10 distribute
lawn mowers and watering pots, he
would doubtless find a greater de-
mand among his plain people than
for free seeds. Are rot the speeches
of members OF Congress welcomed
in many a home? If they serve no
other useful purpose, they are of
real service in starting the kitchen
fire.
But the fact remains that the
Committee on Agriculture of the
House, backed by the agricultural
press, is strongly opposed to the
free seed graft. The American
Grange Bulletin, the official organ
of the National Grange, has APP
pealed to the farmer to refuse to
receive the seeds; if necessary, TO
leave the packages in the letter
boxes.
Nevertheless, the House adopted
the Lamb amendment TO tie agricul.
tural appropriation bill. This amend
ment not only continues the graft,
but enlarges it. Hereafter, FIVE
sixths of the visible supply of free
seeds, instead of two-thirds, will GO
TO members of Congress for distri-
button among their constituents. In
other words. Senator's and Repre-
sentatives will force the ''plain peo-
pie" TO accept a present of garden
seeds valued at S2O2 900.
The Democrats saved the free
seed graft. Wherefore it may be
inferred that the Democrats believe
in the theory Of a paternalistic
government and are not unwilling
to practice it.

Something Wrong in Iowa.

1t is increasingly apparent that
there is something the matter with
Iowa. Another convention out there
has aired a hostile view of the Hon.
Leslie NJ Shaw. The other day the
Congressional convention III his
home district refused to pass a reso-
luton indorsing the Secretary.
Now comes report that the coun-
ty convention In Hardin county, an
overwhelmingly Republican region
for a generation, has gone one
worse. 1t passed resolution con-
demning the Secretary for alleged
interference in this years Iowa
campaign. The resolution was adopt
ed by a vote of three to one. Later
in the afternoon, in the interest of
harmony" somebody asked that
the resolution be rescinded, and the
convention, without ever smiling at
the humOr of it, passed the rescind-
ing resolution
The Secretary's recent St. Louis
speech against political indepen-
dence seems to have struck a re-
sponsive chord in his home State,
but perhaps not just the chord that
the Secretary had in mind.

yesterday. What happened, then, IS
interesting and suggestive.
Mr.. DahIman was elected mayor
by 2,792. His campaign managers
in their widest flights of assumed
confidence didn't have the temerity
to claim anything or the sort, be-
cause it would have made them
ridiculous. Dahlman was elected,
and with him went the complete
Democratic ticket, save two alder
men only. 1t was a complete revo-
luton.
Municipal elections this spring
have steadily indicated that the
tendency to Independent voting
that smashed so many machines
last fall, is still rampant. 1t may be
said that there is not much political
significance in municipal results,
which is often true. But there is
at least this coincidence: that all
the machines that are being smash.
ed these days are Republican ma
chimes, and the movement is so
widespread and unanimous as to
Justify increasing suspicion that it
may have some significance as bear
ing on results in the elections next
fall
