contention was that such a require

The suggestion for the extension

The campaign of former secretary

it is generally believed, will be the re.

AUSTIN, Tex, July 23.-Incomplete
returns from throughout the state
indicate that o. B. Colquitt has br/ /
named as the democratic nominee
for governor of Texas and the plan
to submit state wide prohibition
amendment to a popular vote has car
ried in the primaries today.
Colquitt, it is certain, has carried
north, south and western Texas, al
though R. V. Davidson is running
close in the latter section. Returns
from the couIkry districts are mea-
gre and may have some effect on the
final result. The vote on the prohibit
ton amendment is close and both
sides are claiming victory.
1t will probably be two or three
days before the final result of this
vote is known. Bascom Thomas has
defeated A. D. Davidson for the nomi
nation for lieutenant governor.
An Austin paper says indications
are that Colquitt will be nominated
by $4,000 majority. If the prohibition
amendment is carried and the amend
ment defeated when passed on at the
next general election, the prohibition
question cannot be taken up again in
the state for ten years.

LOS ANGELES, Calf July 23.-As
the result of mysterious feud which
followed divorce suit, Frank NJ Bell
a wealthy society leader and club
man, today shot Attorney Wiedeman
at Artisia. Wiedeman died later at a
local hospital Bell was arrested
Three years ago Bell filed suit
for the divorce. Mrs. Bell was repre-
scented by Wiedeman. Since then
Bell and Wiedeman have been bitter
enemies. While the divorce case was
pending. the two men met in a room
of local hotel for private confer
ence. No one else was present Dur
ing the conference, three shots were
fired and each man accused the other
of trying to kill him.
During the hearing of the divorce
suit Bell suddenly boarded his pri-
vate yacht for cruise, and Mrs. Bell
filed writ of attachment against
the yacht A deputy United States
marshal boarded the vessel to serve
the writ, and Bell promptly threw
him into the bay and sailed away,
agreeing to return in three months.
Three months ago Bell was found
bound and gagged in the rear of a
friends home in Hollywood Great
mystery surrounded the attack. Bell
employed a number of private de
l'tectives but they were unable to 10
cate his assailant.
Today's fatal shooting was the fin
al step in the long standing feud.

Gore Of Oklahoma again broke into
the lime light this afternoon after
several weeks OF comparative retire
ment, when, in the presence of
crowd of several thousand people he
denounced the tariff, the ship subsidy
the postal savings bank, Speaker
Cannon and Senator Aldrich. He was
cheered vociferously at every point.
The blind senator was bitter in his
attacks on three recent issues in con-
gress. He declared the postal savings
bank measure was merely the start
of central bank, that would be
founded on the grave of the individ-
ual banker and American freedom.
He branded the ship subsidy as braz-
en- and enormous graft and reiterated
the arguments of the progressives
against the tariff.
Although Speaker Cannon and
Senator Aldrich came in for a share
of the Oklahoman's contempt, he
dealt lightly with the standpat lead
ers as compared with the recent
speeches of Seaator Bristow of Kan
sas and Cummins, of Iowa.
The senator did not overlook an
