RULES FOR PRIMARY ARE
EXPLAINED BY H. A. HALL

NEWMAN, Ca, July 1s.-Hon. Hew-
lette A Hall, chairman, has given out
the following statement as a final ex-
PLANTATION and defense of the rules
adopted by the state Democratic execu-
tive committee for the governance of
the state primary to be held on Au-
gust %:
rho rules for the government of the
August primary were adopted June 4.
1910. At that time there were no an
nou.Ioed candidates for governor, and
the opinion was general that there would
be no contest this year. From the date
Of the committees action until a few
days ago the rules seemed to have met
with general satisfaction, as no protest
or criticism was heard from any quar-
ter.
The rules speak for themselves, and
are perfectly fair and just If proper
ly applied they result in no advanta se
to one candidate over another. A con-
structive criticism which has for its
purpose the Improvement and better
ment of the rules is well and will result
in good; but a captious criticism, which
is inspired by desire for partisan ad-
vantage, is harmful and DESTRUC-
TIVE rather than CONSTRUCTIVE, in
its effects.

Lake Foresters to listen to her arsu-
ments for ballots for women.
AS the wealthy residents of the sub
urb filed out of the coaches, Mrs. Nc
Culloch's slight figure dashed across the
street to intercept them.
Just a minute; we're going to have a
suffrage meeting across the street right
away" she pleaded. Come over and
hear u.s."
Two hundred persons gathered around,
and Mrs. McCulloch plunged into a
story Of how we'll women's rights have
worked in other states and how badly
Illinois needs the help Of women.
ct have letters from 14o mayors whore
suffrage has been granted in full or in
part, and they are practically unanimous
in declaring conditions have improved"

TURN OVER TIME
When Nature Hints About the
Food

When there's no relish to any food and
all that one eats doesn't seem to do any
good then is the time to make turn
over in the diet, for that's Natures way
of dropping a hint that the food isn't the
kind required.
For a number OF years followed
railroad work, much OF It being Office
work OF trying nature. Meal times
were our busiest and eating too much
and too quickly OF food such as is COM
monty served in hotels and restaurants.
these together with the sedentary habits
were not long in giving me dyspepsia
and stomach trouble which reduced my
weight from 2O5 to 16o pounds.
There was little relish in any food and
none of It seemed to do me any good. 1t
seemed the more 1 ate the poorer 1 got
and was always hungry before anoth sr
meal, no matter how much l had eaten.
Then l commenced q fair trial OF
Grape-Nuts food. and was surprised how
small saucer of IL would carry me
along, strong and with satisfied appetite,
until the next meal. with no sensations
Of hunger, weakness or distress as be-
fore.
II have been following this diet now
for several months and my Improvement
has been so great all the others in my
family have taken up the use Of Grape
Nuts with complete satisfaction AMI
much Improvement in health and brain
power.
American people undoubtedly eat hur-
riedly, have lots of worry, thus hinder
ing digestion and therefore need food
that is predigested and concentrated in
nourishment."

MAN, SILENT 81 YEARS,
IS DEAD At SIXTY-ONE

SOMERvILLE, ~. J., July 12-Eilas
Hoffman, who had not spoken a word
for 81 years. according 10 his neighbors,
is dead. He passed away last night with
out breaking the silence which he had
preserved so long. Just before he died.
he made an effort to speak to his de-
voted sister, Mrs. Margaret Lane, who
has cared for him in his lonely house
throughout his eccentric career. The at
tempt failed. however. owing either to
weakness or to the fact that he had lost
the power to articulate.
Hoffman was 81 years old. He was one
of FIVE sons of a prosperous farmer. The
other four are living and are promi-
spent his early life like his brothers on
his fathers farm. At the age Of 80 he
possessed a farm and owned fine team
of horses, Of which he was very proud
He was fond OF society and attended all
the social gatherings OF his community.
Then misfortune overlook him. He
lost his farm, and finally his pet team
He went to bed and turned his face 20
the wall and for long time refused to
eat or speak. Food was left on table
near his bed and when he was nearly
starved he arose one night. ate meal
and took a stroll out OF doors He con-
tInued for a number. of years to arise
each night, eat and take a short walk
in his garden. One winter night more
than Is years ago. he slipped on the ice
and broke an arm while walking in his
garden In the dark. After that accident
he never left his bed.
Whether Hoffman was insane was new
er determined. Although he had been
examined by a score of physicians with
view to determining his mental. con-
-fla haf Al olf
lists up to the time OF his death.
Physicians had been expecting Hoffman
to die every year for the last decade
from sheer inactivity.

Women already possess a municipal

that the government will concede time

TAFT States LOEB FOR
GOVERNOR OF NEW YORK

BEVERLY, Mass, July 2.-Wfliam
Loeb, Jr., collector of the port OF New
York, frankly told President Taft yes
terday that he would rather remain al
his post in the customs service than
run for governor of New York this fall
The president as frankly told Mr.. Loeb
that the Republican nomination seemed
to be coming his way, that 1t would take
more than a fishing trip to the Rocky
mountains to stop IT.
The former secretary to President
Roosevelt left Beverly this afternoon for
New York, leaving the impression here
that If 1t became absolutely necessary
for him to take the Republican nomi-
nation he would do so, and would make
It a whirlwind campaign.
The mention Of the New York sit
uatlon was incidental to a talk on gen.
eral politics by the president and Mr.
Loeb. They were together before the
president went to the Myopia links for a
game of golf with Henry c. Prick, who
lives near here, and they lunched togeth-
er ct John Hayes Hammond's cottage In
Gloucester. After the luncheon the
talk was continued. Mr.. Taft was anx-
ious to hear something of the situation
as viewed by one outside the immediate
administration circle.
Mr.. Taft is not interfering in the
New York situation in any way. He
and Mr.. Loeb are the closest of friends,
and whenever Mr.. Loeb's name has
been mentioned to the president in con-
rection with the New York governorship
he has always enthusiastically approved
the suggestion. Mr.. Loeb has known
this for some time. He has known that.
so far as he could legitimately do so. the
president would bring all of his influence
to his support in anything he might UNI
der take.
