WHY NOTl

Joe BARLEY has asked the demo.
cratic state committee to give him q
hearing in the Hitchcock matter and
to allow him to answer any questions
it may put to him.
Why not grant it?
The injection Of this BARLEY bust
ness into the campaign has mystified
the voters. Even Mr.. Hitchcock will
not attempt to deny that it has put
him on the defensive, and that il
places him before the public in bad
light.
1t does not help him out to thunder
that it is Joe BARLEY who is doing it
OF course it is his enemies who are
doing it. Ones enemies are seldom
above reproach.
The question is: Do his enemies
possess the goods?
In a pitiable position indeed are
the people of this state if it can be
positively shown that Hitchcock gO'
any part of the states stolen funds
which he never paid back to the state,
Against him is the fact that, as the
publisher of a democratic paper, he
was ever found borrowing money from
. republican office holder, whether il
was the state money or any other.
1t wosid be the salvation of the
state from a great calamity if it could
be shown that he has been misrepre.
sented by his enemies. The state
needs for its senator q man whose
skirts are clean. lift be shown con.
clusively that Hitchcock's garments
are unclean, then indeed is the hope
of this state gone.
Then why may not the democratic
state committee grant this hearing.
consider all the testimony and give it
to the public in readable form?
Let Joe BARLEY be there with his
unpaid notes and such other proofs as
he may have, if any.
Let Mr.. Hitchcock be there with
his proofs ifhe have any.
And let the unnamed Omaha bank
er whose identity has been 50 studious-
ly suppressed by all parties be there
with his proofs. if he have any.
If Hitchcock borrowed money of
BARLEY through lan Omaha banker,
let US know all about it.
Any concealment may cloud a just
verdict in this case. The people in
making up a verdict upon this mysti.
flying state of affairs, are entitled to all
the evidence, for to the people more
than to any individual involved, is
the integrity of the verdict important.
Except that it may interfere with
his speaking campaign, what reason.
able excuse may Mr.. Hitchcock urge
for not meeting his accusing enemies
face to face at such q hearings-Lin.

Large Machine Will Increase Power at St. Denis Station 10000
 Horsepower.

A Paris electric company has just ordered for the power station at St. Denis, which supplies power for the Metropolitan railway and for the light ing of part of the city, a turbine gen. orator capable of yielding 10000 horsepower. It will be of the mixed Brown Boveri-Parsons type. The steam will first impinge directly on disc with one or more rows of blades, and then it's energy will be exhausted by a series of Parsons reaction discs
 This arrangement permits a -consid- erable reduction in length as con- pared with turbines of the pure Par sons type, and in the present case has the advantage of enabling the new generating set to be erected in a space that has been reserved for a set of S,000-10,000 horsepower, similar to those already installed. The turbine will be coupled to three-phase gen.

rifying as possible to the visitors. When Guanajuato became the scene of great mining activity a few years ago, caused by the advent of many Americans, the newcomers made pro- test to the government authorities of the horrifying spectacle in the under ground chamber. In response to this protest the authorities issued an order that these skeletons must be clothed so as to hide their shimmering bones from the eyes of the visitors to the place. The effect of this order is to make the occupants of the chamber more grotestque and terrifying than when their nakedness was exposed. Each grinning skeleton now wears full suit of clothes which hang Imply upon the bones. Some wear hats that are titled at rakish angles.
 The big pile of bones that formerly occupied one end of the Guanajauto chamber of horrors has been removed and an effort is now being made to keep the place in fit condition for the reception of American and other visi- tors.

Rhode Island Students Secure One Of the Largest Fresh Water Rep
 tiles Ever Caught.

Providence. R. I.--Three students of the Rhode Island Agricultural col lege the other day captured in Thirty Acre lake one of the largest fresh wa ter turtles ever seen in this state.
 The turtle weighs 60 pounds and measures three feet across. Its neck Is four inches through and in snap ping the spread of it's jaws Is over three inches. Four large fangs that would do credit to a bulldog grow in the jaw
 The students s. H. Cabot and L. H.. Herresnoff, of Bristol, and A. L. Thorn ley of Pawtucket, were crossing the lake in a canoe. Reaching a stream which serves as an outlet to the lake they skfrted down it, when large head emerged from the reeds and at tracted their attention. One of the boys seized paddle and punched at the head. What looked like a canoe bottom came to the surface and the paddle was seized by the turtle. The jaws closed on it, there was a crunch ing sound and the paddle fell in two pieces
