1ERRTNGTON, Kan, July 10
Speaker Cannons second speech to-
day, delivered here this afternoon,
was tariff argument and attack
ed the insurgents He said: Il
am republican, just plain simple
republican. ! am not a progress
sive no an insurgent republican.
Whenever it is necessary to use
an adjective to describe a republic

republican party, climb tree or
join the democrats. Cannon then
took up the tariff, and said he had
had enough of revision for long
time.

ROOSEVELT Will
TAKE No ACTION in
Ohio CAMPAIGN
BY Associated Press.


NEW YORK, July 19.-Roose-
welt hopes the republicans of Ohio
will adopt a progressive platform,
but is taking an attitude in line
with that of Taft, and declines to
exert his influence for any candi-
date in the anti-convention situa-
ton. He made this plain in New
York today after a conference with
Judge Reynolds Kinkaide of Toledo,
who is regarded as second choice of
the Ohio republicans who are sup
porting James Garfield, the eX-sec-
rotary of the interior, for the gu
bernatorial nomination. Neither
Roosevelt nor Kankaide would dis
cuss the conference, nor would
either of them reveal the contents
of letter the Judge bore from Taft
with whom he talked Sunday.
Booker Washington called on Roose-
welt today and asked the colonel to
speak before, the National Negro
Business Mems league, which is to
hold convention in the middle Of
August. Roosevelt promised he
would speak on August 18th.

system, or leave the town in dark
ness for sixty days.
We strongly recommend that this
matter be taken up at once in or
der to give the successful bidder
time enough to install a plant If
necessary, and further that they at
once proceed to install meter sys-
TEN for electricity in the court
house, as previously ordered.
To the Honorable Board of Coun-
ty Commissioners:
In our recommendations to the
court We called attention to the
action of the contractor in the clean
ing of the town of Tonopah. In our
Investigations we found that he
was negligent in his duties and ut
terly failed to comply with his
contract. One month has elapsed
since that report was handed to
you. and during that time the said
contractor has had time to great
| ~ improve the condition of the
town, but, We find on second in
vestigation that nothing has been
done toward a betterment We find
garbage still lying as it was a
month ago. In view of the fact
that he has been allowed plenty
and sufficient time to change his
methods and make marked i'm
provement in the condition of the
town, and has utterly failed to do
so, we now recommend that the
present incumbent be dismissed and
! his contract annulled.

CLEVER LITTLE
PERFORMERS PLEASE
LARGE CROWDS

Standing room was at a premium
at the Butler theater last evening
and well it might be, for the per-
Torrance was especially good from
start to finish Myrtle and Fonda,
the clever little juveniles, appeared
again and We're forced to respond
to several encores. The orchestra,
accompanied and added greatly to
the performers efforts and COM
bined made the performance far
above the standard. The program
for today is Boobies Baby" an
entertaining picture admirably
adapted from an entertaining story.
Bottles is surprised, as he naturally
would be, to discover a baby in
his arm chair at the barracks, but
he adopts the wise course and de-
termines to care for the founding
and the result leads to a thrilling
love romance.
Opening an Oyster is an ed
vocational film representing the most
graphic features of the oyster bust
ness. 1t is.a fitting addition to the
growing list of good educational
films. Love Ye One" is another
pathetic story of an unfortunate
wayfarer who is turned away from
none home after another where COM
fort and plenty prevail. He re-
viles the cross but Christ appears
to him and his hardened heart
softens. links Has Shooting
Mania,' is comedy that is very
| laughable from start to finish. The
young lady performers will change
program every night, so no one will
! see the same performance twice.

gresham Murdoch, the Kansas in
surgent in the house of representa-
tives, following in the wake of
Speaker Cannon, today defended the

with affiliations with Tammany hall
and declared the greatest thing the
insurgents had accomplished at the
last congress was to put the speak

ESPEE IS Held
GUILTY UNLAWFUL
Discrimination
BY Associated Press


WASHINGTON, July 19.-When
one community leans upon another
for it's competitive rates, the bene-
fits from such rates ought not to
be denied to the point where COM
petitive conditions exist This was
the essential feature of an opinion
handed down today by the inter-
state commerce commission in the
case of the Harbor City Wholesale
company of San Pedro, Cab. against
the Southern Pacific and other car
riers. Originally Los Angeles was
made a terminal rate point because
of its proximity TO the harbor OF
San Pedro 1t was shown that
competition through the harbor of
San Pedro contributed to the main
tenance of terminal rates at Los
Angeles and in view of these facts,
the commission held that the de-
PENDANT lines in this case were gull
ty Of unlawful discrimination
against San Pedro in not making il
also terminal rate point.

TREASURER'S OFFICE.

In the treasurer's Office the mat
ter of continual deputy was alb
solutely ignored without any more
investigation than few well cho-
sen remarks from the treasurer.
We still insist that it is not neces
sary to have deputy in the treas
urer's Office all the time, for it is
well known fact that the former
treasurer had great deal more
work than the present incumbent,
and he performed all the duties re-
quired of him without extra help
until he got tired and put his dep
uty in office without pay. At the
time that deputy was allowed a
monthly salary she did compare
lively all the work alone. If it
could be done at that time, when
there was a large amount to do, ii
can most certainly be done again
And we most certainly contend that
our former recommendation is not
an injustice to the treasurer, but
should be carried out to it's full ex
tent, thereby saving the county {
neat sum of money that can be APP
piled to more urgent use.

HOSPITAL.

Our second investigation of the
hospital shows us a marked i'm
provement in the matter of venti-

and wall ventilators which have
been installed since We last visited
the building, we find that the air is

As the honorable board of COM

matter We hope and recommend
that the good work continue and
that the bathroom be installed as

Roosevelt Gets Warning.

March 25 Colonel Roosevelt received,
at Cairo, the following cablegram from
Ambassador Leishman:
Rome, March 25.-The rector Of the
American college, in reply to an inquiry
/ caused to be made, requests that the
following communication be transmitted
ito you: The holy father will be delighted
to grant an audience to Mr.. Roosevelt
on April 8, and he hopes nothing will
arise to prevent it, such as the much
regretted incident which made the re-
eeption of Mr.. Fairbanks impossible. T"
Here was the distinct intimation that
Mr.. Roosevelt must restrict his liberty
of action while in Rome.

Causes Great Stir.

The failure to arrange an audience
between ex-President Roosevelt and the
pope, which was known only in certain
circles, is expected to create a tremen-
dous stir here, as well as abroad, far
overshadowing the Importance Of the
incident in which former Vice President
Fairbanks was the principal.
Although the negotiations We're tech
nically between Ambassador Leishman
and Mgr Kennedy, it is well understood
in Rome that Mgr. Kennedy was acting
under the instructions Of Cardinal Merry
del Val. The kilograms, therefore, were
IN reality between ex-President Roose-
welt and the papal secretary Of state.

Blow at Methodist Propaganda.
1t is true that the Vatican had no nj
formation concerning this save from
Colonel Roosevelt's message to Ambas-
sador Leishman declining to make en-.
gagements Of any kind until after his
arrival in Rome, but apparently with
little consideration for Colonel Roose-
welt s well-known character, the Vatican
determined to prevent a repetition Of
the Fairbanks incident, and at the same
time fix a precedent which, once for
all, would establish the condition Of the
presentation Of American statesmen to
the pope and deliver a body blow at
the Methodist propaganda in Rome.
