Has a National Primary Bill.

Des Moines, Ia, Aug.-Asserting
as a reason the fact that the nomi-
nations for President and Vice-Presi-
dent may be and actually have been
determined by the vote of delegates
from states which cast practically no
vote for the party ticket and never
elect the party electoral ticket, SEN
ator Albert B. Cummins today de-
clared his intention of introducing in
the Senate bill providing for the
enactment of a nationwide primary
law.
Senator Cummins points to the
difficulty of making any change in
the method of procedure in national
conventions relative to the basis of
representation, and declares that if
Congress does not actwithin reason
able time upon his national primary
bill, he will propose law regulating
national party conventions, making
the basis of representation the party
vote instead of population.
AT the recent Republican state con-
ventiOn a plank was adopted in favor
of a national primary law, and the
Republicans of the state are commit
ted to it.

Skeleton Found In Digging.

A skeleton was unearthed by some
workmen in digging the foundation
for the new Jamison residence on the
former Jas. Scott property this morn
ing. The bones of portions Of the
skeleton resembled those of an infant,
and several who saw them were
ready for a sensation, and If the sea-
son had been nearer "all-fool's day, "
we might have worked up quite an
item, but it is hardly necessary to do
this over tbs bony remains of a dog
that has been dead a great many
years, perhaps before this town was
established. -R H Review.

State Committees Meeting.

The final meeting of the Democratic
State Central Committee of l9O8-l0
was held in ST. Louis yesterday. The
new State Central Committee under
the statute cannot organize until Sep
TENDER Is. but a number of the new
committeeman elect were present at
yesterdays meeting and shared in the
interchange Of views.
A resolution was passed by the full
committee indorsing and approving
all acts performed and general dis
positions made by its Executive Com
mittee, including the organization Of
the Business Mems Auxiliary Com
mittee. That an adjunct Of such
value as this movement on the part
of business men should have recogni-
ton from those on whom will rest the
immediate burden Of the campaign
was, Of course, to be expected. The
fact that the auxiliary body has been
madea subject Of ill-natured criticism
is the only thing that gives the ex-
preston of approval any significance.
A final and sufficient reply to such
criticism of the auxiliary and Of Exc
cutive Chairman johnson and his COL
leagues is found in the unreserved in
dorsement given by the full commit
tee.
One-half Of the Central Committee
of thirty-two consists of hold-over
members who have been reelected.
This circumstance alone would render
it reasonably certain that there will
be continuity Of policy and method in
the further progress Of the campaign,
and If there was any doubt about il
the attitude of the new members who
attended yesterdays meeting would
remove the doubt.
The new committee on its organ
ization will assume control Of a work
already well in hand. Plans that
even now are under way furnish
ground for believing that the effort
in behalf of Democratic principles and
candidates will be wisely and eff
diently prosecuted and with unim.
paired harmony in both counsel and
action. Republic, Tuesday.

Negro Home Site Vexes.

Jefferson City, Mo-, Aug. 29.-Gov-
ernor Hadley thinks the State Home
for Incorrigible Negro Girls has been
definitely located at last on tract of
land comprising about forty acres,
about two and one-half miles south
east of Sedalia.
Although the home may be located
there, trouble is threatened. To-day
the Governor received a telegram
from some citizens of Sedalia, whose
names he did not make public, among
them banker, alleging that the price
to be paid for the land by the State is
excessive, and asking him to investi-
gate. The price agreed upon for the
land is 5000.
The Governor said that before an
agreement as to the price of the land
was reached he consulted John II.
Boutwell,, of Sedalia, and other citi-
zens there, and they informed him
that at the present time such land in
that vicinity was selling as high as
$3.50 an acre. He is inclined to think
that the complaint about the high
price of the land is due largely to a
prejudice against having the home To-
Gated near Sedalia.
A real estate agent held an option
on the land for $500, and it was
through him that the purchase was
made. The Governor thinks this is
proof that no excessive price was
asked for the property.
Sedalia, like good many other cit
les, did not want this home. II was
practically located within the city lin
its of Sedalia once, but owing to the
protests of citizens a change had tc
be made. The same thing happened
at Kirksville, Salisbury, and other
cities.
1t seems that no city in the State,
or any rural locality, wants this home
The board appointed to locate it is
composed entirely of negroes, anc
the members have been travelling
from place to place for more than &
year trying to find a location.
Wherever there were any lndica
tons that the board had found loca
ton, citizens Immediately protested
and in every instance save the las
one these protests were so vociferou'
that it was deemed best to heed them
The last Legislature appropriated
SOS, 600 for the establishment of thi.
home.

Next House Democratic.

New York, Aug. 29.-The Wash
ington correspondent of the New
York Evening Post sends his paper
the following:
Republican members of the Sixty
second Congress no doubt would get
much excited over the speakership
issue, were it not for the general
opinion that the next House will be
Democratic. Washington is off the
political map just now, in the absence
of William H. Taft in Beverly and
the presence of Theodore Roosevelt
in New York. Nevertheless, Wash
ington has the advantage of viewing
the Republican confusion calmly from
afar and possibly in getting better
line on the situation than many cities
nearer the scene.
washington thinks that not even
Roosevelt can save the House to the
Republicans, as things look now.
Men close to Speaker Cannon and
ordinarily sharing his views hold
this opinion of the outlook. They can
see no common ground upon which
Republican progressives and insur-
gents can get together.
Meantime, probably man named
Clark, hailing from Bowling Green,
Mo-, will be the next Speaker.

More Money for Poultry Exhibits

The directors of the Missouri State
Fair have increased the premium
money for utility breeds of poultry
this year. There is going to be a
great Poultry Show in connection
with Missouri's Tenth Annual State
Fair, October II. Every reader of
this paper who isinterested in poultry
should make it point to spend some
time in the poultry building while at
Sedalia. If you expect to be an ex-
hibitor in the poultry classes you
should write to Secretary Stinson at
Sedalia for a premium List which
gives full particulars about the in
creased money and etc.

FOUR HORSES BURNED.
Carpenter & Skaters Big Barn
Burns Together With Con-
One Horse Escapes After the Flames
Burn Halter With Which He Was

The Carpenter & Shafer Manufac-
turing Company's big barn at the rear
of their plant was completely de-
stroyed by fire, late last Saturday
night. and five horses, four wagons,
four sets Of double harness and one
set of single harness were burned.
One Of the most remarkable fea-
lures of the fire was the escape Of a
horse tied with a halter in the midst
of the other animals which were
burned. This horse escaped after
the entire structure was wrapped in
flames, and when the heat was so in
tense that II seemed impossible for
any living thing to survive in the
seething mass. II was atfirst thought
that the animal had broken its halter
in an attempt to escape, after being
surrounded by flames, but an ex-
animation Of parts Of the rope still on
the horses head disclosed the fact
that the rope halter was actually
burned in two before the animal made
its escape.
The fire was not discovered until it
had gained considerable Roadway,
and when the alarm was turned in at
about HAS, the fire department made
record time getting to the scene, but
on account of the inflamable contents
of the barn, nothing could be done
other than to protect adjoining prop
erty.
A number of dwelling houses and
barns in the neighborhood caught fire
from the flying sparks, but these
were quickly extinguished.
The loss on the building and con-
tents will amount to between 81, 500
and 5000, and was partly covered
by insurance.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
Mr.. Shafer stated to a Times re-
porter that the barn will not be re-
built, but that a new fireproof bain
would be erected near the planv at
the Mo. Pacific depot.

ABOUT EDUCATION.

This morning some of Durango
leading educators left for Denver to
attend the Colorado State Teachers
association meeting at Denver. This
meeting in previous years has been
held during Christmas week, but this
year it has been changed to Thanks
giving week. in order that the holt
day season may be enjoyed by the
teachers without interruption, which
is well for all concerned.
Then the teachers are planning new
Legislation which they wish to draft
into shape for presentation to the leg
isIature before the December assembly
convenes. School boards all over the
state are granting the teachers full
pay while they are in attendance
at this meeting, which will help them
meet the expenses Of the trip.
Teachers and educators are as a
rule given very poor compensation
for the service they perform. From a
