HOT REPLY FROM
SENATOR FORAKER

Washington, May Ex-senator Fora
ker today issued spirited rejoinder to
the statement made public AT Columbus,
o., yesterday. by Chairman Brown of
the Republican state central committee,
etnhodying his views and those of Gov.
Harris and other state officials respect
ing Ohio's choice Of a candidate for
president. The senBor says II IL diff
cult To make polite answer to a part
OF Chairman Browns statement de-
claring that for frank. dictatorial and
offensive bossism, it far exceeds any
thing I can recall"
He gives definite notice that he not
only resents Chairman Browns dicta-
ton, but that his choice for the presi-
dency will be named by the next con-
vention Of Ohio Republicans and that
he will abide by that choice.
Following is the text of Senator Fora =
ker's statement:
The state officers have a right 10
their preferences and to declare It when
they like. but such declarations do not
dispose OF the necessity for a conven-
tion nor change in my opinion that
the voters should be given a chance TO
he heard before final action has been
taken.
III the Republicans of Ohio are all
Overwhelmingly, or even by bare ma
friends need not either fear the prl-
maries, or be In hurry about holding
them
mo one need suffer, certainly not
wrongfully if we proceed in order in
stead of trying to rush conclusions by
unofficial announcements and declara-
tions.
so far rs the control of the state or
ganization is concerned, l have never
made any claim to that / have a.
ways supposed that organiza tons were
mere party machinery and not the per-
sonal property of anyone, not even the
chairman Of the state central commit
tee.
"As to the rest of M Browns
statement it is difficult to make polite
answer, For rank dictatorial and Of
fensive bossism, it far exceeds any
thing / can recall II amounts to a
threat that unless / declare for Mr..
TAFT / shall lose the senatorship. That
may be, but If so the fact has no ter
rors for me.
Il said at Canton that would not be
dictated to by any kind of IA boss, big
or little, inside or outside the state 1
meant that announcement for just
such bosses as Mr.. Brown, and for just
such performances as he Is now giving
us.
ITO be specific. l emphatically resent
hls dictation ana give him notice that
any choice for the presidency will be
named by the next Ohio Republican
convention that is lawfully held TO
nominate state officers. and that so far
as 1 am personally concerned, | shall
abide by the action Of thai convention
as to whether / shall be a candidate
again for any office, and IL so, what
that office shall be-

A NERVY GIRL.
She Alarms the People and They Rally
and Defeat the Burglars.

Lakeville, Mimi, Sept. 11.-All the
town is praising Maude Sauser, night
telephone girl, for the part she took
in arousing the countryside at a. m.
yesterday, when burglars blew the
vault in the Dakota County State
bank at Lakeville. Instead of swoon-
ing or going into Mysteries, when
Miss Sauser was aroused by the sue
cessive dynamite explosions she tele-
phoned everybody in town and then
started in on the country subscribers,
thus attempting to cut off the escap-
ing yeggmen. Two suspects have
been captured at Donaldson. The
cracksmen secured no booty.
Safe-blowers went to work in the
night on the Dakota County State
bank. They pried off the iron out
side door and, once inside, started on
the vanlt door. They blew this off
with an explosive and then. blew off
the door of the safe inside. The last
explosion disclosed locked money
safe. A charge was inserted, but the
money box proved stronger than the
explosive and it only blew the bottom
of the safe out. By this time the
telephone girl next door was awake,
and F. w. Linehan, citizen, had
given an alarm. A Pinkerton detec-
tive from Minneapolis was on the
ground early, but no clues had been
found up to noon.

One of the drawbacks to the use Of
long-distance electricity has been the
liability to breakdowns, caused by &C.
cidents, including those due to light
ming, which result in shutting off power
and often in unpleasant and costly in
terruption of traffic. Many localities
depending on power transmitted over
long lines of wire have had such ex-
periences. Syracuse uses for its transit
system electricity generated at Mia
CARA Falls, and has had some very an
noying occurrences of the sort, and as
a consequence the traction company
adopted the policy of keeping its local
power houses in readiness for use
Now it is announced that the line from
Niagara Falls has been duplicated, and
that henceforth 1t will be practically
impossible for the current to be shut
off completely. 1t is asserted most
positively that neither thunderstorms
nor any other influence can put both
lines out of commission at once. At
any rate the precaution seems to be a
wise one. Electric power that Is like.
ly to give out when most needed does
not command the confidence of the
community it serves.

Long before many American uni
versities established summer schools,
chautauqua stood for the thrifty use
of vacation days in pleasant and prof
liable study. Like every other move
ment out of the common methods and
largely patronized by women, the
chautauquan work was derided by
conservative persons. 1t was the butt
of jokes such as are now directed
against Correspondence" schools. It
was called the intellectual tea-party,"
the playground of culture" But it
slowly won respect, enlisted the serv-
ices of good teachers and gave its
brief periods of enlightenment to
thousands of teachers too busy in
winter to think of much outside Of
classroom routine. President Roose-
welt, who knows the country pretty
broadly, calls chautauquas "the most
American thing in America" This
summer there have been between
300 and 400 assemblies embodying the
chautauqua idea, besides the summer
schools and educational conventions
which represent the same American
principle of diffusing culture and in.
struetion to the greatest possible
number of persons.

PIckPockETs FIGHT CONDUCTOR
Lively Encounter with Thieves on a
Rock Island Train.

Omaha, Neb., Sept. 7.-Three armed
crooks, who had picked the pockets of
a number of Rock Island passengers at
the station in Lincoln, and attempted
to continue their game on the train,
engaged in a desperate encounter with
Conductor Henry Duval on the Rocky
Mountain limited, near Alvo station,
about one o'clock Friday morning.
After standing off Conductor Duval
with knife, the men leaped from the
moving train, about eight miles west
of Alvo, and escaped in the darkness.
The Rock Island special agents have
been sent to the vicinity of their es-
cape with good descriptions of the
men.
Passengers had reported being
robbed at Lincoln and later Conductor
Duval discovered the crooks attempt
ing to rob men who were asleep in
the chair car. He tried to capture
them, but in vain. The first reports
were to the effect that the train had
been held up.
