Washington. Dec. with the
date set for the meeting of the re-
publican national committee now less
than twenty-four hours distant, the
rivalry among the various cities
which are contesting for the honor
of having the Iext convention Is
hourly getting more spirited.
All of the cities formally entered
in the race have established head
quarters for the final campaign and
are pulling wires vigorously in order
to attain their ends.
While it is known that date ear
" in June is favored for the big
convention, it is difficult to forecast
what action the committee will take
in the selection of city. Chicago
and Kansas City are apparently most
favored; but st. Louis and Denver
also have a chance of victory.
If Chicago is given the convention,
1t will probably have to provide a
hall larger than the Coliseum. where
the 1904 convention was held. The
Coliseum was admittedly ideal so far
as arrangements were concerned;
but it could seat only about 5000
persons, including delegates, the
press and spectators. 1t is certain
tnat tne convention next year Will
attract a much larger crowd of re-
publicans from all parts of the ma
tion than was the case four years
ago, when there was no contest for
the presidential nomination. The
national committee leaders are ap-
parently determined to require hall
that will accommodate a much larger
of people than Chicago's Col
iseum. 1t is indicated that a hall
of sufficient dimensions to provide
for a crowd of at least 10000 will
be a requirement which the commit
tee demands, but some committee
mehi are apparently sceptical of prom
ises.
1t is believed that Acting Chair
man New unquestionably favors Kan
sas City, and the Taft boomers will
also bring their influence to bear for
the selection of the Missouri town.
They think that the west will turn
10 Taft and that the holding of the
in Kansas City would be
4 point in his favor. In the matter
,f a hall, Kansas City leads all of
It's rivals. having a magnificent edi-
ice that will hold no less thar 49,
300 people. The building is espec-
ally well adapted to the purposes OF

MANY BID FOR
THEC0NVENTI0N
Chicago, Kanas City, Denver and St. Louis Each Fighting
Hard For the Republican National Convention
Decision Tomonow-Ihe Offers

, a national political convention and
can be easily put in shape, with
aisles, anterooms and all the acces-
sories for practical work.
The question as to whether Kan
sas City can supply adequate hotel
facilities will probably be the decid-
ing factor in its acceptance or rejec-
tion. The Chicago boomers declare
that the town at the mouth of the
Kaw will certainly be unable to prop
erly entertain the thousands of visi-
tors, delegates and correspo ndents
who will flock to the next republican
convention. A number of national
are already pledged to
vote for Kansas City and 1t is GER
tain to be one of the stiffest contend
ers In the race. Should Seattle and
Denver be early eliminated from con-
sideration, the friends of these cities
will probably throw their influence
in favor of Kansas City.
The Missouri boomers allege that
the hotel bugaboo is baseless and
that Kansas City will be able to prop
erly entertain all who come. The
city is now said to have 60 per cert
more hotel accommodations than in
1900 when the democratic national
convention met in Kansas City.
st. Louis is more strongly in the
race for the democratic than the re-
publican convention. and may aid
Kansas City in accomplishing its am
bition.
The only place east of the Allie
ghenies which is making any special
effort to land the convention is At
lantic City, and because that is SO
extremely east 1t apparently has lit
tie chance.
The Pacific coast is booming for
Seattle, and the Rocky mountain dis
trict is demanding the convention for
Denver. Lack of adequate tele-
graph facilities serves as drawback
to these cities, as well as their dis
tance from the center of population.
The delegates will have to pay
their own way to this convention for
the first time since the invention of
the free pass, and this fact initiates
against those cities which are locat-
ed at either extreme of the country.
The advances made by Pittsburg
and Boston are not considered SER
iously in any quarter. In short, all
of the subject among
the political prophets in Washington
leads back inevitably to Chicago and
Kansas City as the real contenders.

ECZEMA ONLY SKIN DEEP.
Proven by Records Now on Display at
Miller Drug Co.'s Store.

The old theory that skin disease was
caused by bad blood or disorderei in
ternal system has been proven a false
one. 1t is now well-known among up
to-date skin specialists that skin dis
case is caused by germ in the skin
and that this germ must be killed by
local treatment.
Miller Drug Company, at No. 4O4
Market street. have in their possession
hundreds OF letters from persons for
merly suffering from eczema, psoriasis,
salt rheum and other diseases Of the
skin. He also has pictures Of men,
women and children, showing the skin
diseased, cracked and bleeding, while a
few months later It is clean, soft and
smooth with every trace Of the disease
wiped out. All these cures were made
by local external application OF d. d.
d. Prescription, a remedy that in
stantly stops all itch and quickly kills
the disease germ, effecting a perma-
nent, positive cure.
Here Is simple letter from ]. Dali
ton. wilderness, NO; II have used the
bottle Of medicine you sent me and
am now a well man. Please accept my
heartfelt thanks. Your remedy cannot
be praised too much"
Every sufferer Of skin disease can
see such letters by calling at the Miller
Drug Company's drug store, and also
secure without charge a book on the
cause ard cure OF skin diseases.

cage for $1,000 Held by
City Turns Up

All the worry and talk over the miss
ing $1,000 Herdiman Trust Fund mort
gage bond held by the city, was for
nothing. The bond was found to-day
by Clerk Of Council Thomas s. Lewis
in the big safe in the Council cham
bers. He turned the valuable paper
over to Assistant Auditor Rice, City
Treasurer Ross being out of the city.
City Treasurer Ross called the at
tention OF City Council to the missing
bond, but his letter was not read be-
fore that body on last Thursday night.
He then made the matter public on his
own responsibility.
The mortgage in question was held
by tho city from 1884 to 1894, when it
was redeemed and invested in a mort
gage Of $1,000 Of Emmor E. Pollock
and wife. bought from Heald & Co. on
tho property No. 1928 West Eighth

how a man disregards a woman's fu-
ture and CANDLES on his life IN a case
like thatl
The fact that she was not fitted to
DO thing was the woman's fault-an-
other case Of taking a chance that she
might never need to do anything and
OF losing.
Can women afford to take chances
like this?
Quite recently. too. a man died and
left his estate so entangled that for
three years no money could be drawn
from It. His only daughter found her
allowance brought suddenly to an end
She must do something but what?
She spent one awful day counting the
things she could do, but most OF all
facing her own weaknesses and lack
Of practical education. She had a
smattering Of everything on earth and
a working knowledge Of nothing. Her
mother. mercifully dead before the
crash came, had educated her to be a
society woman, the kind Of woman
who marries-that must marry.
Well. she had not, and now she was
forced to face conditions she knew
nothing whatever about. 1t was a
gamble in which the mother risked the
daughter.
Can women afford TO take such
chances as these?
