TAFT WOULD ACCEPT
AAA
IF HE IS NOMINATED

Columbus, Ohio, April 30.-That
w. b. Taft, secretary of war, is in
the race for the Republican nomina-
ton for president to stay is, in effect,
the announcement made by A. I. Vo-
rvs, state commissioner Of insurance,
who is managing the Taft canvass in
Ohio. Mr.. Vorys has just had con-
ference with Secretary Taft at Cinoin-
natl. When he returned to Colum-

ment:
II have talked with Secretary Taft
and submitted to him convincing evil
dence that the Republicans Of Ohio
favor him as the Republican candi-
date for president. He was gratif1ed
at the information. he said that
some months ago he had announced
that, while his ambition was not po-
litical, he would accept the nomina-
ton if it came to him, and added that,
in view Of the fact that his name had
been used and support for him invoked
by his friends, good faith required
that he should not alter his position
until the question Of nomination is
settled

FEARS FOR
PEACE OF WORLD

Berlin, April 27.-A great deal of
gossip has been caused here by the
discovery that the kaiser has been op-
posing the projected International ex-
p osition which it has been proposed
to hold here in 1918. The reason ad-
vanced to account for the kaiser's
stand is that he is convinced Germany
will be embroiled with another big
European war before that time.
The statement that Kaiser Wilhelm
opposes the proposed exposition on
such grounds has caused a great sen.
sation. It is argued that the govern
ment fears that the peace Of the world
is In constant jeopardy and great un-
easiness has been caused among the
people who feel they do not know all
the complications Of the nation.
What particular power the kaiser
fears is not disclosed, but it is broad
~ limited that the last has not yet
been heard of the Orient Bank affair
and that both Russia and Great Brit
ain are determined they will not re-
inquish their carefully mapped out
plans in Persia, which have been
gravely imperilled by the financial in
terposition of Germany.

HARTMAN OFFERS RELIEF
Willing to Aid Washington Lumbermen,
But Hill Refuses.

Tacoma, April 8O.-At q meeting

lows:
Hartman wants to help the lumber
manufacturers Of Washington to mar
ket their product. He il willing to
join with the Northern Pacific in the
establishment Of joint rate through
the Portland gateway, but the North
ern Pacific refuses to cooperate
with Hartman. The Hill interests re-
fused even to discuss the matter.
Commissioner Lane says the COM
plant Of the Manufacturers associa-
ton will be called for hearing during
May. At the meeting here the state
railroad commission agreed to accept
the proposition of the Northern Paci-
f1c to keep the car records open in
Spokane, Seattle and Tacoma.
Officials of the Northern Pacific
sent written statements denying that
any discrimination was being shown
in the distribution Of cars.
The scarcity Of men for logging and
mill work is attributed to high wages
paid by railroad contractors.

Kansas Attosnsy General Takes Strong
Measures for Prohibition.


Topeka. Kansas, May 1.-At
torney General r. 8. jackson, BY g.
curinga injunction against nine for
eign brewing concerns to prevent thsir
owning property and operating saloons,
and in obtaining an order for the ap-
pointment Of receivers for the brew
ers' property, has taken the most ef-
fective measure that has ever been in
voked to enforce the prohibitorv law
in Kansas. He intends to push his
crusade to an active conclusion. In
an interview he said:
"When the receiver is named he will
proceed to locate and take under his
control all property of the defendants
found in the state and will thus be
able to state every place where defend
ants are in any way carrying on bust
ness in Kansas. Any attepmt to con-
ceal the sale of liquors will place the
defendants and other participating
agents any place in the state in con-
tempt of the supreme court.
''The property will be sold and out
of the proceeds the court will pay
all costs and damages due the state
II it is necessary to send the militia
to enforce the order, the defendants
will pay the bill. It will not be
necessary to do this, however.
The brewers properties in Kansas
consist of warehouses and saloon Tx
lures, and are valued at many thous-
ands of dollars.
It is expected the supreme court
will at once appoint receiver for
each of the nine brewer es."
