President

Tor President, and prophecies of his
election to that Office were made by
speakers Monday night at the formal
notification to Gen. Stuart l.. Woodford
or his selection as president of the
Hughes League of the United States,
which TOOK place at the Hotel Manhat-
tan. Members of the notification COM
mittee and members of the Hughes
League from many parts of the country
were present. The speakers included
General Woodford, John L. Mulholland,
chairman of the Hughes League; for
mer Governor Bachelor of New Hamp
shire, Congressman Waldo of Brooklyn
and former Mayor Seth Low of New
York.
In accepting the leadership of the
Hughes League, General Woodford
characterized the political situation as
serious, and declared that the Demo-
cratic party will do it's best to get to-
gether and win the coming election. He
admitted that they looked dangerous. ;"
The Republicans must not count on
Democratic mistakes as in the past, he
said, and mistake now by the Repub'
licans would be crime. He paid high
tribute to the worth of Governor
Hughes, who. he said, he had known
from his youth.
Former Governor Bachelor occa-
sioned long applause when, in his
speech, he declared that ''one of the
most remarkable and one of the most
encouraging developments N current
political movements in New York had
been the remarkable growth of senti
ment there for Governor Hughes y
Speaking of this sentiment Governor
Bacnelder said:
Remarkable, | call it, because it has
been entirely spontaneous, springing
from the eager consciousness of our
people that in him they'have leader
who embodies all the high traditions of
New England Republicanism, calm, dis
passionate. restrained and resolute.
The sentiment of New England Repub-
licans for Governor Hughes is not of
the hothouse growth. No clique has
fostered it, no machine has made it. 1t
arises from deep and genuine appreci-
alton of his character and purposes.
from study of his mind and from an
abiding faith in his as a man and as an
executive"
Chairman Mulholland, who made the
Speech notifying General Woodford of
his selection, told his hearers that the
campaign in the interest of Governor
Hughes was making steady progress.
and declared the Republican South
was awakened and will be on our side" !"

Beatrice Gordon Acquitted.

Denver.-Beatrice Gordon was ac-
quilted of the charge of numbering
William o. Shirey, by the jury in the
West Side court Monday night. The
jury went cut at 6:30, but did not COM
mence consideration of the case until
after supper An agreement was
reached Immediately, and they were
ready to report before 9 o'clock. But
standing eleven to one for acquittal,
and the second unanimous.
Miss Gordon received the verdict
without manifestation of emotion. She
remained at the county Jail with the
matron last night, but will go TO her
sisters in Lafayette, Colorado, this
morning She says she has no plans
for the future.
As soon as the clerk had read the
verdict, Judge Greeley w. Whitford
astounded the jurors and the few spec
tators by saying:
There are more murders committed
in the United States, gentlemen, than
in any other civilized country in the
world, and there are fewer convictions
and punishments for murder in the
United States than any country in the
world. 1t is worthy of reflection for
is by the people. whether life is secure
under such methods as ours.
This verdict is not such a verdict
as the court would have found in this
case had it been within its province.
But YOU have found for acquittal and
the defendant is dismissed"

Would Assist Unemployed.

Washington.-SethT 7. Farnsworth OF
Chicago, advocate of the idea of self
supporting agricultural schools as a
remedy for enforced unemployment
and John Ellis of Boston, secretary Of
the national convention of the unem-
ployed recently held at st. Louis, had
a conference with Secretary Of Agri-
culture Wilson for the purpose of as
certaining to what extent the idea Of
selfsuppOrting suburban schools of
farming might be encouraged by the
federal government
They explained that the object was
to furnish work for the victims of en-
forced idleness in congested industrial
centers.
Secretary Wilson said in reply that
1t was The unquestionable duty of state
and municipal government to estab-
lish such enterprises and that If they
would provide land within the range
of flve-cent fare from towns, thus
letting the unemployed have access to
such farms. he would send experts free
of charge to demonstrate the work and
also would send the necessary seeds.

Consumption and Typhoid.

Albany. N. YIN his anual report
Just submitted to Governor Hughes,
Eugene II. Porter, NJ. D.. state health
commissioner. points out that tubercu-
losis. elthough a preventable disease,
causes $1,000 deaths and an expense OF
$40 0.000, 900 on the state OF New York
each year. Typhoid fever, says the re-
port Is responsible for 1000 deaths and
a cost Of 81 ,000. 900 annually.
Discussing the subject OF tuberculo-
sis, the commissioner states THAT from
one-seventh to one-tenth of all deaths
and an enormous proportion of invalid.
ism are due to it
In New York state there are prob
ably not less than $4,000 cases OF tuber-
culoeis. with nearly $4,000 deaths an.
nually. And 1t is a preventable dis
ease.
Eaca town and city must also take
up for itself the suppression of tuber.
culosis within its own borders, says the
report. Suitable local ordinances
should be enacted and provision should
be made for hospital facilities.
1t is estimated that there are 10000
cases OF typhoid fever annually in New
York state. with 1000 deaths, involving
n total pecuniary loss of $1,000, 900.
Public nuisances frequently exist as a
result Of the pollution of streams. The
policy Of the department OF health. ac.
cording 10 DR.. Parker is that further
pollution OF the streams and lakes must
cease.
It does not expect to bring this condi.
tion about in day or n year. but 1t
does expect that within n compare.

Wants Rehabilitation

Behold Colonel Maxson, candidate
for Congress on the Republican ticket
probably the only congressional can
didate that ever ran for that office in
Nevada who did not want the office.
The Colonel is the victim OF his
W Vaccinations this fall. He was
told that he could not have the nomi-
nation, and II made him angry. AS
a matter of fact he cares little for the
Office and less for the men who are
to give him their votes. All lie wants
IL to make good with the powers that
be In the Department OF the Interior
where the Colonel has been more or
less personal non grata for 10 these
many
Rehabilitation Is what the Colonel
seeks this fall. Rehabilitation he must
have. His string Is about full in
Washoe County and he sees the day
near at hand when he must once more
get his feet into the federal trough.
For this reason he must have reha-
bilitation.
The Colonel figures that he has
no chance to defeat Bartlett for
Congress: but that by standing for
the nomination, making the shadow
OF a campaign, expanding a certain
amount of his good money and in
every respect making himself a vicari-
ous sacrifice, the powers that be will
be unable to refuse his demand for
recompense when the rewards are
hung up next year II at all
