DR. Pipkin hurried inside OF the

his remedies and then discovered that
1t was a practical joke on the part OF

have taken carbolic acid, then an
ether poison, and finally admitted
that 1t was all a hoax. She said she
did not think her husband loved her
enough and only tried to compel hin,

DOUBTS truth OF
DENIS STATEMENT
REPUBLICANS ASK BRYAN TIC
GIVE HIS OATH REGARD
ING CONTRIBUTIONS.

Chicago, Oct. 23.-Since William
Jennings Bryan started the personal
campaign now being waged. the repub-
lican national committee considers
itself at liberty to keep 1T up and Is
beginning to ask some questions of the
democratic candidate. The latest one
is: .-
"Why have you picked out Chicago
to make your alleged publication of
contributions to your campaign fund?
Why not New York;
Mr.. Taft has promised not only that
full publication of the contributions
to his fund shall be made, but that the
publication shall be in New York.
New York has law compelling such
publications and the statements must
be made under oath. Illinois has no
such law and the statements are of no
value except as the readers may have
confidence I'm the honesty of their
authors.
At the same time Secretary Hay
ward of the national committee made
an announcement severely attacking
Mr.. Bryan for the personal reflections
he has been making recently on the
honesty Of Mr.. Taft.
Denies "sIush Fund" Charge.
Mr.. Hayward prefaced this with the
remark that a man who was always
suspicious of the honesty of others was
fit subject for suspicion himself and
after referring to the fact that Mr..
Bryan had been accusing his competi-
tor of raising large "slush fund" with
which to buy votes in the last days
Of the campaign, said:
TT is surprising that a man who
lays claim to the high standard OF
ethics that Mr.. Bryan does should stalk
through the country maligning every
one Of his political opponents in a
manner little short of Billingsgate.
Consider for a moment that Mr..
Bryan's accusation, If believed by the
American people, would brand Mr.. Taft
and all Of his campaign managers as
men devoid Of the common principles
of integrity.
"Mr. Bryan has ever felt it his priv
| ilege to clasp his hands in a SNUG,
sanity attitude, the while accusing the
| republican party Of every crime in the
category. His accusation that the re-
publicans intend to debauch the voters
with money illegally contributed by the
lawbreaking corporations is not only
false, but he has no reason for believ-
| ing 1t to be true.
He Charges Discrepancies.
"On Sept. 90 the Rocky Mountain
News reported the receipt for the Bry-
an campaign fund of the sum Of $40,
3OS. In thei same organ later appeared
the official list of Colorado subscribers
made public by the democratic nation
al committee. There were discrepan-
cies of $3.50. 1t may be bad book
keeping, but it ought to be investigat-
ed.
Before passing Mr.. Bryan's reiter-
ated charges that the republicans are
trying to purchase the election, would
like to ask him these questions:
did your brother-in-law, Tommy
Allen, chairman of the state centra
committee of Nebraska, in the election
in that state in 1904 use the SIS, 0oC
he got from Wall street to purchase
votes and 'debauch the franchise +?

Meantime an ungrateful republic ig
nores the patriotic activity of the
citizens who go arsUnd spotting these
spies and reportin~ their audacious, if
not alarming, performances. Possibly
the statement made this week by one
of the army officials may explain this
apparent of entc-~~ising pa
triots:
"This Government has nothing 70
hide in regard to its seacoast fortifi-
cations. Some years ago an American
civilian could not enter some of the
forts or approach the batteries, but
such Is not the case now. Since Brig.
Gen. Arthur Murray became chief of
the artillery corps the policy has been
changed. 1t is possible for o. per
son, white, black or yellow, unless he
happens TO appear a dangerous char
acter, to go into the forts and see all
he wants to see. The Government
thinks it a good idea that American
citizens should know something about
the forts which protect their large
cities. Besides, the facts would leak out
If an attempt were made to suppress
them"
