a Progressive Victory

CHICAGO, June S.-Senator A. B..
Cummins of Iowa, who has here today,
saw a great victory for the progress

yesterday. He said the defeat of Con-
gresham ]. A. T. Hull, 'standpat' Re

"There may be some disposition in
circles at Washington and throughout
the country to get the two factions
together, and it may prevail A united
party must be had in order to win the
coming or future elections, but If one
element is proved right, the other
should abide by that result. How are
we to tell which is right? 1 guess that

if the voters express preferences for
one faction as against the other by
electing that faction, it is a fair sign
which is the choice of the people.

PARLIAMENTARY CRISIS TO
BE AVOIDED TILL AUTUMN

LONDON, June 8.-Parliament reas-
sembled today, apparently in a more
concillatory mood than that in which
it adjourned.
The constitutional crisis will be held
off at least until autumn with the pos
sibility that in the meantime a confer
ence will be held between the two pre-
dominant parties, resulting in a COM
promise program in legislation in which
controversial matters will be avoided
to a great extent.
OF the three measures to be taken up,
the civil list, the regency bill and the
amendment to the accession declara-
ton, the latter alone is likely to en-
gender bitterness I'm debate.

DIES MONIES, June S.-With but
five counties missing tonight, Cover
nor Carroll, Republican. is renominated
by a majority of 7O6 votes. The miss
ing counties are known as Carroll
strongholds and probably will bring his
total up to 1900 or 2O0O

Hull Prouty carried every county in
the district. his unofficial majority be-
ing 31O6 Even the most sanguine pro-
gressive had hoped for little better than
a small margin. Two years ago Hull
was nominated by forty votes over
Prouty.
The remarkable shift is attributed
solely to antagonism to the course OF
the "stand pat" congressman, of whom
Hull was one on the tariff and railroad
legislation.
President Taft early in the campaign
spoke in this city in support of the

"This is a fair example of how tramp

"This is fair example of how tramps live out in the open country during the summer. The best of the tramps. the most imaginative and most adventurous hie themselves away into the open coun- try ill the summer; but the worst of the class gather about the towns and cities where there are more house at which to beg for food, where the vegetable patches are more numerous and where there is more opportunity to steal property other than food. These fellows are just as abundant ill summer as in winter, but the residents of the town see fewer of them because they have other sources of food supply besides the housewife's con- tribution handed out through the back door.
 "The tramps now in and about the villages and scattered through the rural districts have been, with few exceptions, in this section all summer, for tramps don't move by their own natural means of transportation during the heated season. Along the great trunk railroad
 
 lines they move about more, but always in box car or curled up in the corner of coal car or perched on board laid across the sleepers of passenger train. Away from the through railroad lines they stay the whole summer through until the frost comes ill the silence of the night, and the restless wind strips the trees of their dead leaves and strews them upon the ground covering the site of the summer camp. when clouds scurry across the noon-day sky like frightened sheep fleeing toward the shelter of the fold before the breaking of the winters storm. Then the hosts of tramps who stayed by the shady springs through the s,lnnef gather up their httle packs and nlu!e on along their way which leads to auy or iii destinations but to noue that W.tS c.oSen beforehand. And it is then . t>--,t strange tranps appear"

"A real estate agent, whose bushes

W "A real 0S6dG6 dScuI, WAOSo UuSIuSSS takes him nearly every day out along the highways and byways of the rural sec tions told the reporter that tramps were abundant and could be found in great numbers if only you looked for them ill the right places, if indeed there are right places for tramps-derelicts and para sites of our social system. This real es- tate agent said that he went out to an old farm on which there is no regular occupant now and while on a tour of ex- animation he went into the barn. As he pushed open the dilapidated door he heard loud snores which filled the in terior of the old building. The agent entered and there on pile of hay he spied a big fellow whose nose had once been red but was now blue, and the fel- low was enjoying one of the long-drawn- out fits of delirious oblivion which only tramp can enjoy to its fullest extent. Piled in one corner was a heap of red potatoes, bushel or more, and close by were a dozen and half eggs.
 "When the agent went out ot the barn he saw smoke arising from among the trees few yards beyond the barn and away from the road, and there by a spring two other tramps were making a three gallon can of stew. These two tramps were little withy fellows who, no doubt, were charged by the big, fat sleeper in the barn with the duties of foraginR and cooking. The big fellow was then getting into condition for the big dinner which was soon to be his.
 ''The agent declared that the little scene which he had witnessed was so aIluring in it's bucolic simplicity. it's evident lack of all worry and trouble, its atmosphere of absolute independence and liberty, that he felt like abandoning the hard lot of 8 commission-chascr aud joining the great multitude of the under
