John p. Woodbury., Jr., came near
experiencing a dire misfortune Mon
day while at work in the Kreutzer &
Wasem factory, where he is employed,
by getting his gloved hand caught in
a planer. Mr.. Woodbury. was engaged
in planning board and caught the
fingers Of his left hand in the plancr,
and between it and the board He
jerked mis- hand, and the glove went
thru the planer. The index finger
of the hand was pretty badly pinched,
but not seriously. He will lose the
nail but had not the glove been tough
enough to have protected the hand as
1t did. or if he had been without it,
the probabilities are he would have lost
his entire hand.

Mr. West has had some experience

This is only one of the changes
which is being talked of in the primary
law. It seems to be admitted that some
steps must be taken to keep members
of the opposing party from participant
ing in some other fellows primary.
The legislature is likely to require
people to register before the primary
and declare their politics at that time.
Then when the man steps up to vote
he gets a ballot in accordance with his

There is also some kicking on the
present plan of getting nomination

SHOT HIS OWN SON.
Mistook Him for a Rival in His Wife's
Affections.

Chicago, Aug. 31.-A disuatch to the
Tribune from Clay City. Ill, says:
Insane as the result of having slain
his wife and wounded his son in error,
Julius Turner, a farmer committed
suicide in the county jail last night
He hanged himself with the sheets
from his cot.
The shooting of Mrs. Turner and her
son occurred on June 20. The murder
was the result of insane Jealousy on
the part OF the husband. The son was
mistaken for a rival and he and his
mother were shot while they were
standing in the dark just outside the
village church.
Turner, who was SO years old, had
been separated from his wife for some
time before the shooting He was
reputed to be wealthy. Mrs. Turner
was 40 years old.
Turner, overcome by remorse and
sorrow, had been out of his mind ever
since the shooting. He had been more
concerned in the condition of his son
than he had in his own fate and had
frequently said he cared not what the
authorities did to him so long as his
boy would recover.
In this last wish he seemed to have
been gratified. as the boy, although
seriously wounded, has recovered rapid
ly and is well on the way TO health

ACCEPTS THE APOLOGY
Bank Commissioner Royce Reinstates
Kansas City Bank

State Bank Commissioner John @.
Royce, after a conference with the Of
ficials of the Central National bank of
Kansas City, Mo, lasting nearly all
day Saturday, decided to rescind his
order of Saturday morning, and allow
the bank to continue as a reserve
agent for Kansas banks.
The bank officials wrote a most alb
ject and humble apology and confess
sion of error, and promised never,
never to be naughty any more. Mr..
Royce then wrote a solemn acceptance
of the apology and called it square.
The letter of the bank officials fol-
lows:
Kansas City. Aug. 80. 1908.
/ Mr.. John Q. Royce,
| State Bank Commissioner,
Topeka, Kan.
Dear Mr.. Royce: We are just in re-
ceipt of your official communication
under date of August 18th, barring
| this bank as a reserve agent for KAN
sas state and private banks and trust
companies. and regret very much that
you have felt it your duty to make
such an order.
We admit that you were justified In
the order which you made, but we wish
| in this communication to assure you
| that our failure TO give you the infor-
nation which your deputy requested
was not maliciously done, nor was II
done for the purpose of Withholding
from your department the information
which we admit you were entitled &c
| have.
The application for information ii
| this bank was made by your deputy
Mr.. Watson, to the cashier of this
| bank, Mr.. David Thornton. who, with
out making the proper Investigation te
learn the true facts, informed him tina
! this bank held no obligation against
| the bank which was under inveStiSa-
/ ton by him as to its solvency. Our Mr.
| Thornton takes upon himself the whole
responsibility of the untrue informa'
ton furnished your deputy by him
and his only reason for deceiving the

that the bank held the obligation il

terested who can raise the money. and
make a good showing for the state.
Kansas ought to be willing to send a
good many thousand dollars to help
elect Taft and Sherman. We want
contributions of all sizes, from the
smallest up to $4,000. The man who
can afford to give rs cents, and no more,
will be doing his part. 1 want any Re
publican who is interested in this
proposition to write to me; to offer
suggestions on the best way to raise
money in his locality, and the best way
to get the Republicans interested in
the movement. This year it is up to the
people themselves to say how large the
campaign fund will be. Kansas is pros
porous, and the voters ought to be will
ing to contribute literally"
The Democratic national committee
is working in the state to raise money
on a similar plan to that of the Re
publicans.
Mr.. Mulvanes appointment was made
through the suggestion of David w.
Mulvane, Republican national commit
teeman from Kansas.
Henderson Martin. chairman of the
state Democratic committee, gave out
a statement Sunday roasting the Re-
publicans for refusing to permit Stubs
and Bristow to engage in joint debates
with Botkin and Farrelly. The Repub-
lican committee refused on the ground
that it wouldn't help the Republicans
any to draw crowds to listen to Demo-
cratic oratory.
Mr. Martin in his statement says:
Il have mentioned only a few of the
many reasons why 1 believe you are
afraid for these debates to come off,
but you may .be sure that your candi-
dates will not be allowed to go over
this state unchallenged, pretending to
favor a bank guaranty law when in
fact they do not favor such law. They
will not be permitted unchallenged to
talk one way while your candidate for
president is talking another way. Nor
will Mr.. Bristow and Mr.. Stubs be
permitted unchallenged whether there
is a joint debate or not, to pretend
to stand upon the national platform
with one foot and upon another and
radically different state platform with
another foot.
In short whether we have the de-
bates or not. Mr.. Stubs and Mr.. Bris-
tow will not be permitted to ride two
horses in opposite directions at the
same time without having the atten-
ton of the people called to their per-
formance."
