THE TARIFF AND CAMPAIGN TROUBLES.

Candidates for election to Con-
gress this autumn, whether up for the
first time or reelection, will not be
confused by a multiplicity of issues,
for it can readily be seen now that
two, or possibly three, will be the
main points of discussion in the
campaign.
Tariff and its camgaign companion,
the high costs of living, will be the
great issues in three fourths of the
congressional districts of the United
States, with the Democrats having
the advantage of attack upon the
recently enacted tariff law, the pro-
visions of which will not be fully de-
Tended by numbers of Republican
candidates for Congress in the East,
the West and the Central States of
the Union.
The Democrats will be the assail-
ants, and it looks now that the de-
tenders will be anything but efficient
or united in their opposition to the
assaults.
Governor Harmon in a recent inter-
view said the way out of the woods
is simple one. Revise the tariff
downward. There won't be any
political rest until the popular demand
is complied with"
President Taft last autumn seemed
to be under the impression that his
party had revised it downward, but
the political rest is hardly visible to
him yet.
He said at Rochester: 81 am tired
of consulting special interests to see
whether or not a thing ought to go
through.
Il am in favor of consulting every
interest to see what its argument may
be, and want to give justice to every
interest.
Il want to know fla thing is
right. fit is right, we can convince
the people it is right, and they will
be with US.
But is the tariff bill the right bill
and are its schedules the right rates?
Thousands of Republicans say the
tariff bill is not right and the sched-
ules are not the proper ones.
In the special elections recently
held they voted disapproval of its
provisions and condemned the meas
ure.
Hundreds ofthousands ofthe vot-
ers in the United States are convinced
that the increased costs of living are
the results of the tariff law to a great
degree, and in every district of the
country the cause and effect will be
made plain to the voters by the cam
paigners of the opposition party.

THREATEN
TO DISRUPT DUNKARDS
Modern FrivoIitieS Cause Scandal
Among Members of Sect

SPRINGFIELD. Ohio, June 4.-Dun-
kards in this county, especially the
younger Dunkards, are manifesting a
disposition to cast aside some of the
rigid requirements of the church. A
number of the younger and weather.
farmers are buying automobiles, and
this has created a scandal among the
older and stiffer relgionists.
The matter has come to a head in the
case of John Markey, one of the leaders
of the church and a wealthy Preble
county farmer He recently bought an
automobile and was soon after waited
upon by a committee from the national
organization and told that he must
either dispose Of the machine in thirty
days or suffer the consequence of being
brought before the church council to
answer to charges Of violating the an
cient teaching of the church against all
new-fangled, frivolous devices. Mar
key defied the authority of the church
council to make him cease using his
automobile.
In this county there has been a strug
gle on the part of the women, many of
them of a peculiar type of beauty, to do
away with the ancient headdress, an
ugly bonnet, but so far there has been
no headWay made.

FRENCH NUN ACCUSED
OF BIG JEWEL THEFTS
Charge Famous Charitable Sister
with PaWning TrinketS

PARIS. June 2.-Sister Candide. a
nun, famous in France for her chari-
ties and who has enjoyed for years
the confidence and esteem of the best
class of people, was arrested today on
q charge of the l.rceny of jewelry from
merchants. who had confided it to her
to sell. Her arrest was hastened by
the suicide of Dr. Leon Petit, a well
known Paris physician, who left let
ters discriminating her in other shady
transactions.
The jewelry is worth only a few
thousand francs. Those who claim in
innate knowledge of the facts say that
liabilities of 100000 francs ($S00000)
have already been located and that the
exposure now assured will show the
career of the woman in holy garb to
have been more remarkable in many
ways than that of the notorious Nine.
Humbert or that of Cassie Chadwick.
Publicity has been given SO far only
to the complaints of the jewelers.. They
say she represented to them that she
had wealthy friends who would like to
help her otherwise than by outright
gifts and who would buy things from
her on commission. She mentioned
particularly some Americans who
wished to help her charities in this
way.
The jewelers. became anxious when
time dragged on without a report from
the nun Pursuing their inquiry, the
merchants say, they found that she
had pawned the property.
Their attorneys were preparing to
bring criminal action against Sister
Candide when the news came out to-
day of the suicide of Dr. Petit, who
had been prominently associated with
her in charity work. Notes left by him
declared he was Innocent, but con-
fessed that the nun had sown death
and ruin around him, and that rather
than incur the shame of public sus-
picion he chose to end his life.

3OO IN COLLEGE
Of OSTEOPATHY
Graduation Draws Attention to
Big Growth cf a Los An
geIeS Institution
IS FLOORS OF BUSY SCHOOL
More Than 1000 Delegates Who
Will Attend National Conven-
ton viii Visit Los Angeles
IS FLOORS OF BUSY SCHOOL

Los Angeles College Of Osteopathy
completed the twelfth year of the work
of its faculty on Thursday (seven
years at Des MOines, Ia, and five years
in Los Angeles) with the graduation
of fifty-four osteopathic physicians.
Fifteen of these We're post-graduates
from other colleges.
Los Angeles has so many growing
institutions that development which
would be so conspicuous as to be the
subject of big head lines in the leading
journals of most American cities, is
almost overlooked. When this faculty
decided to remove from Des Moines,
the chamber of commerce of that city
raised a fund of fifty thousand dol
lars to start another OsteOpathic col
lege in its place. Nearly a hundred
of the former students, however, came
to Los Angeles to finish their courses
with their Old professors.
A fiVe-stOTy steel and concrete build
ing was erected on the clay street end
OF the lot at 321 South Hill street.
This was soon QVerCrOWded and the
two upper stories of the Hill street
building We're taken over for college
purposes. Last year the college con-
tracted for the erection Of another
steel and concrete building of four
stories between the two others for
clinical, hospital and surgical instruc-
ton Increasing classes have again
crowded these buildings so that the
college board of trustees have just
purchased for the institution the four
story apartment house, 32426 Clay
street, adjoining the main college
building on the south.
800 STUDENTS
The new college year will therefore
open in September with fifteen stories
of college buildings and three hundred
students only 80 per cent of these
come from california, tWentV-eight
states being represented in the stu
dent body as Wcll as Canada, Mexico.
England, Australia and New Zealand.
1t is questionable if so rapid growth
and upbulding could take place in any
other city of the United States.
A goodly percentage of the students
are married, and with others come
members of the family to spend a
period of their lives in this Italy of
America. In this way the institution
traces an addition of more than seven
hundred citizens to the population of
Los Angeles-illustratiV of the fact
thar Los Angeles growth is no longer

Incidentally il is remarked that the
graduates of this college have passed
the California board of medical eX-
aminers almost unanimously, with a
larger percentage of successes than OF
any other medical college Of the coun-
try. It is further to be remarked that
this places Los Angeles in the rank OF

Wheeling, w. Va, Nov. 19.-Mrs.
Laura Farnsworth Schenk, wife OF
John o. Schenk, the millionaire packer
of this city, has been indicted on the
charge of attempting to murder her
husband by administering arsenic to
him in his food and drinking water.
The grand jury had been called espe-
cially for her al She was indicted
on five counts, each of which renre-
SCENTS a separate alleged attempt by
Mrs. Schenk to poison her husband.
The trial will begin as oon as pos
slble. Assistant Prosecuting Attorney
Fred L. Maury say the docket would
be called next week, probably Monday,
and at that time the date for hearing
the case will be decided upon.
1t is likely that attorneys for Mrs.
Schenk will ask the court that their
client be admitted to ball. Fearing
that Mr.. Schenk, who has not spent
such a very good day, might suffer a
relapse, he was not told Of the finding
Of the indictment against his wife, and
he will not be informed for several
days. y
When notified of the finding of the
jury Mrs. Schenk became very much
