Washington, March 23.-Thousands
of devotees of the sport of kings are
gathered in Washington and thousands
of threats will echo the cry, They're

the eastern racing season of 1908 will
be inaugurated with the classy Ben

DR.. S. Weir Mitchell, who wanted q
test of the application of the best re-
ligious methods and the best scientific
methods made on one person at the
same time. The difference between
the Emmanuel plan and Christian
Science is that the former plan does
not reject medical skill, nor does it
deny the existence of disease. The
Rev. DR.. Worcester accepts all thar
medical skill has to offer, and offers
religious effort to go with it.
1t is held that the American climate
and the American habits of life are
responsible for an increasing number
of cases such as can be successfully
treated by this method. Bishop Fal-
lows, who recently announced con-
version to the plan and opened a
practitioners room, Is overrun with
patients. Emmanuel demonstrators
take no pay whatever for treatment. !.
The Rev. Mr.. Strong said: Christ
Church is not committing itself to this
new movement. Neither am / con-
demning it by saying that Christ
Church is not to take it up. II they

| it. If it can Increase the influence

warm PRAISE
FOR HUGHES
Tennessee Republicans Lean Toward
the New York Man For the
Presidency.

Knoxville, Tenn, March 23.-Repub-
licans of the Second Congress district
of Tennessee met today to elect two
delegates and two alternates to the
Chicago national convention. While
Taft has many adherents in Tonnes
see, the friends of Governor Hughes
have been very busy in this district,
that the delegates rally to the support
of the Empire State chief executive.
The appeal says: "The public and
private life of Governor Charles e.
Hughes commend him to the favor
able consideration of the Republican
the United States. For generation
he has aided with signal ability in
lighting the battles of our party not
only in the Empire State, but also in
its national contests. His genius as a
lawyer has placed him among the
great leaders of his profession, and
his intellectual and moral force and
and broad work in any high official
position to which the American peo-
pie may call him.
"The metal, physical and moral
capacity and fitness of the man for
effective patriotic work in the Presi-
Dental office that will lift up and bet
ter the condition of all worthy classes
of American citizens are conceded by
the Republican party, the cardinal
doctrines of which he fully compre-
bends and can expound, have been
very great during his strenuous career,
and especially so in the great pivotal
State of New York, where his ex-
traordinary power and influence on
the masses made him Governor In
1906 while all the remainder of the
State ticket went down in defeat.
To whom can the Republicans
more safely turn with confidence in
his integrity and ability than to Gov
ernor Charles E. Hughes, no matter
whether the problem to be solved is
one OF domestic concern or one in
volving questions of international law
and diplomacy.
He would bring to the office of
President true heart, and safe head
and steady hand, and his adminisra-
ton would mean enforcement of all
laws and a Republican party reunit.

Harvey was governor and Ward Bur-

that time and considered itself a west
ern metropolis.

Well, should think so, over thirty, If
my memory serves me right.
when L think of those early days
am always reminded of the grass
hopper year. That is a joke now in
prosperous Kansas but it was a ter
rible reality here at the time and
served as a grisly phantom picture of
Kansas for the eyes of the rest of the
after. 1t has only been in the past
ten years that Kansas has outgrown
the handicap of the grasshopper in
vasion. We suffered far worse from
their ravages than did Virginia during
the civil war when both armies used
her devoted fields for a campaign
ground for four long years.
I was sheriff of Marion county
when the .hoppers' came They had
bean reported in counties near US but
had not vet reached our section. One
day I rode up Lyon creek after a
horse thief and came upon my first
view of the effect of a plague of grass
hoppers. 1t was a peach tree or
it had been denuded of its foliage,
even it's bark, and stood like a drear
and dismal spectre of warning.
1--WE did not think the grasshoppers
would reach us in Marion county, but
they did. The day they came it was
with the noise of an approaching
storm. We had a crop failure that
year in the bargain. but even if the
they could not have fed those millions
and millions of grasshoppers.'
Mr. Howe looked over some old
papers in his desk and found among
them an official document. or rather
communication, from Gov Osborn to
the clerk of that Marion county in
which the latter was instructed to
take wagons to carry the food to
destitute districts The significant
part of this MESA ge was that it was

quired such a message that the la

There was another old document in

Marion county, notifying him of the

MORGAN WANTS SHARE.
Doesn't Want jackson to Have All
Credit for Cherokee Situation.


T. u. Morgan, county attorney of
cherokee county, was in Topeka today
on business and while here took occa-
sion to- correct. certain reports that
have been sent. out about the pad
lock situation in his home county.
Mr.. Morgan thinks that an injustice
mas been done him when all the credit
Tor the Cherokee paddock regime is
given to Attorney General Jackson, and
besides this alleged interference of the
state official tends to cast discredit on
Mr.. Morgan's performance of his Of
fetal duties. The Cherokee attorney
declared, and there is logic in his as
sertion, that there could have been no
padlocks without first the collection of
evidence and successful prosecution of
the jointists of his county, and this
work was done. by himself unaided AID
therefore he should have at least part
of the credit for. fastening the padlocks
on these doors that had been first
closed by injunction.
There are sixty places in Cherokee
county where the .padlocks f1ourished as
These embIems of law and order were
placed in position last November. Mr..
Morgan stated that Cherokee was
pretty dry at this time, only some half
dozen wholesale houses still doing bust
ness there. His next move will be
against these places. There is a large
foreign population in the mining dis
tricts of Cherokee and the work of en-
forcing the prohibition law there is
made much harder by this fact
