MATRON GIVES ORDERS.
TELLS MAN HE is NOT ALLOWED
TO GIVE PROVISIONS TO WIFE
UNDER PENALTY OF HAVING
THEM THROWN OUT.

William Smith, husband of Mrs.
Margaret Ann Smith, stated TO the
Palladium last evening that everything
the article of Wednesday in regard TO
the board and treatment of the pris-
oners at the home for friendless wo-
men was true. Mr.. Smith supplied
the names of several other persons
who have been prisoners at the home
and stated that each one of them
would be willing to make sworn
statement as to the authenticity of the
facts related.
According to the man himself. it
had been his custom to visit his wife
at the Jail every Saturday evening.
He is employed as a carpenter and
states he has no other opportunity to
call. He stated it had been his Gus
tom each time he went to take with
him a quantity of groceries and pro-
visions of kind that would not spoil
quickly and give them to his wife.
She shared the food with the other
prisoners who claimed they did not
receive sufficient from the home ia
bles. Smith says Mrs. Spencer told
him on one occasion that he must not
bring anything more or 1t would be
thrown on the dump. He said he at
tempted to take fruit to his wife but
found that this was not pleasing to the
matron, who claims the prisoners were
given enough to eat at meal time.
Complaint was made by Smith that
yesterday afternoon he anticipated
probable unpleasantries with the ma
tron if he went to the Home and ask
ed to see his wife, so he sent his son
to the sheriff and asked for a permit
The sheriff refused. In regard to his
action Sheriff Meredith said he re
fused to give young Smith a permit
because the Home Jail is not under
his authority and he had no right tC
grant the request. The sheriff is not
made custodian of the prisoners al

EIGHT WEST POINTERS
ARE RE-|NSTATED
Matter Given Consideration
BY Roosevelt.

Oyster Bay. n. Y, August l. Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Secretary of War
Wright have decided that the eight
cadets who recently were dismissed
from the United States Military Acad-
emy at West Point, for hazing. shall
be reinstated and that their punish
ment shall be administered according
to the disciplinary methods of the
academy.
Secretary Wright, as he was leav-
ing Oyster Bay, said that while the
report of the superintendent of the
military academy recommending the
dismissal of the guilty cadets had
been passed on and approved by the
President, he, as Secretary of War.
had not promulgated the order. The
matter therefore. was left over until
today, and Secretary Wright said that
he had taken this course at the re-
quest of the President.

BRYAN IDEAS SECUTED.
STATE WHICH HAS ALWAYS BEEN
CONSIDERED DOUBTFUL WILL
TURN ITS VOTE TO GENIAL
OHIOAN.

Kansas City, Mo, Aug. From a
general survey of the state after trav-
cling through it's center and to the
east and west and northwest it would
appear that the republican party of
Missouri is in better shape and more
united than it has been for many
years. Several elements enter into
the situation at this time which were
not characteristic of former years on
the eve of a national campaign.
To begin with, the national ticket is
generally accepted by republicans as
strong and satisfactory. William H.
Taft has a strong personal following
and many personal admirers. Those
who know him comparatively little ac-
cept him as the choice Of President
Roosevelt and propose to give him un
swerving support on that account. In
that connection it is interesting to
know that Mr.. Roosevelt is easily
stronger with the democrats of the
state than is William Jennings Bryan,
and this is admitted by prominent
democrats at the state capital.
Many old line democrats will give
Mr.. Taft support because they oppose
Mr. Bryan and believe him unsafe and
unreliable. They will support Mr..
Taft because they believe he will take
no step backward from the Roosevelt
policies. Oddly enough inquiries lead
to the belief that in many cities of the
state influential republicans and men
of means and with personal follow
ings will give Mr.. Taft support on the
opposite ground that he will be presi-
dent when elected in his own right and
will not permit repetition of some of
the agitation and unrest which has
characterized the administration now
drawing to a close.
