TAFT APPROVES BOWER ACT
Captain Dismisses Three Middes from
Naval Academy.

President Taft has approved the rec
ommendation of Captain John M.
Bowyer, superintendent of the ma.
val academy, dismissing three
more midshipman on the charge
of intoXicatiOn. AS d result
there is suppressed excitement among
the midshipmen who now realize they
must walk the straight and narrow
path or risk losing their commissions
just as they are about to get them.
The three dismissed are first-class
men, practically on the eve of gradua-
tion They are James Murray White
head of New Jersey, Scott Lynn of
Utah and Grover Cleveland Clevenger
of Missouri.
An extraordinary feature of the case
is that these are the very men who re-
Gently joined with the other first-class
men and proposed to Captain Bowyer
that they be permitted to work for the
elimination of intoxication among mid.
shipmen. The bargain was pro-
posed provided Captain Bowyer would
not dismiss a midshipman who was
charged with overindulgence iii
Thanksgiving punch last year.
Captain Bowyer made no bargain,
but gave the offending midshipman
100 demerits, thereby ushering in the
black-mark system which has held the
midshipmen in check sss.ce the Bowyer
regime began.
The three last dismissals have again
riveted attention to what is termed
Captain Bowyers strict regime at the
academy. 1t is certain that the cords
of discipline have been frightened, and
as a result those who are quivering un-
der them complain "about undue sew
Gritty" But the navy department is
squarely behind Captain Bowyer and
the experienced officers of the service
almost unanimously say he is doing
much to provide the navy with real
men,

MEAT BOYCOTT is GROWING
Now a Live Issue in Ten States of
the Union.

The boycott on high food prices
started in Cleveland is growing. Mis-.
souri,, Wisconsin, Iowa, Nebraska, ILL
nois and Michigan are now included in
the ranks of the crusaders in the west,
while in the east Pennsylvania, Con-
necticut and Delaware are lifting their
voices.
Ohio, however, is still the stronghold
of the movement. The Cleveland boy
colt has extended to Canton, to Column
bus, to Toledo, Akron and other cities
of the state. The crusade in Ohio has
found encouragement in the belief of
the governor that the food trust is
gobbling excessive profits. He has
called on the legislature to investigate
the trust. 1t is estimated that more
than 1000 persons have become ac-
lively interested in the boycott.
Dispatches from Chicago state that
a boycott soon will be started in that
city by the Chicago Federation of La
Dor.
A dispatch from Kansas City says
that more than 100 families in that city
sat down to meatless meals, while the
anti-meat movement has spread to At
Gibson, Leavenworth, st. Joseph, Tope-
ka and other cities in that part of the
country
Omaha reported progress with the
list which the union leaders say will
number 5000 by the end of the week
The Omaha laborers pledge them
selves to ignore meat for thirty days
No organized movement has been I'M
dertaken in Pittsburg as yet, bur
many are deserving the meat stands.
Naugatuck, Conn, is kicking against
the price of butter. 1t has gone to IS
cents a pound there. The employees
in the rubber factories stood for the
butter prices until eggs scared to G5
cents and then they got together.
There are about 500 of these.
! Baltimore is a new convert to the
anti-meat eating campaign. The fight
is being led by the federation of la,
Dor and its 103 affiliated unions. An
order has been placed for $4,000 but
tons bearing the inscription: 81 don't
buy meat; do you?" These buttons
are to be distributed to the various
unions in the city and passed out to
the members who take the pledge.
