DIX SELECTED BY
KN|CKERBOCKERS
Upstate Man is Chosen to Lead New
York Democrats on Broad Pro-
gressive Platform.

Rochester, N. Y, Oct. IA state
convention that will go into political
history as one of the most remarkable
in the history of the democratic party
closed last night by nominating John
A. Dix, chairman of the wealthy Wash
ington county business man, to run on
a progressive platform of the widest
type.
Il said | would give them an up-
state candidate and I've done it." was
Leader Murphy's comment on the
Nomination.
For associate judge of the court of
appeals he received 22 votes, but be-
fore the result of the balloting was
announced, the nomination of Mr.. Col
llins was made unanimous on the mo-
ton of listers delegate.
Dix was chosen as candidate for gov.
ernor last night by the conference of
leaders, while 400 delegates of the
state convention waited two hours in
their seats for the formation of the
slate. The chief cause of delay lay in
the difficulty of filling second place.
John A. Dix, of Washington county,
chairman of the state committee, had
been chosen as the nominee for gov
ernor an hour before and the other
places on the ticket had been settled
to the apparent satisfaction of those
who gathered in the rooms of Charles
F. Murphy, the tammany leader, earl
ier in the evening.
Mr.. Dix last night yielded to the So
licitation of the leaders and agreed
to run. The rest of the slate was
speedily arranged and announced to
the group waiting outside the room at
the Seneca hotel as follows:
Lieutenant governor-Thomas F.
Conway, of Clinton county.
Secretary of state-Edward Lazan-
sky, of Kings county.
Comptroller-Martin H. Glynn, of
Albany.
State treasurer-Thomas ]. Car
mody, of Yates.
State engineer and surveyor-John
A. Bensel, of New York.
Associated judge of the court of ap-
peals-Frederick Collins, of Chemung.
Mr.. Glynn refused to accept the
nomination for comptroller and Will
liam Sohmer, of New York, was sub
stituted in his place on the slate

Los ANGELES NEWSPAPER
WRECKED BY EXPLOSION
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
Los Angeles, Cal, Oct. 1.-The build
ing and plant of the Los Angeles
Times, one of the best known news
papers of the south, of which General
Gray Otis is editor and owner was
completely destroyed by an explosion
and fire shortly after one o'clock this
morning, resulting in the death of up
wards of twenty of it's employees and
the loss of nearly half million dol
lars. The management lays the
blame of the explosion to the labor
union, with which the paper has long
been engaged in barter. 1t is charg-
ed that unidentified parties set off the
charge of dynamite in a blind alley,
which ran into the center of the build
ing, completely wrecking the interior
and setting the building on fire

LOCAL OPTION IS
TRULY AMERICAN
Prohibition Opposed by Bishop Tuttle
And Two Presbyterian
Preachers.

st. Louis, Mo, Oct. bishop Daniel
S. futile, head of the Missouri Diocese
.of the Episcopal church, gave out a
prepared interview at Montgomery.
Mo-, Friday, in which he went on rec.
ord as opposed to statewide prohibi-
ton. He favors local option"
"All true Americans, it seems to me.
ought to strive to maintain and per-
petuate American principles" declar-
ed Bishop Tuttle. Il believe local self
government is an American principle. ."
Statewide prohibition" continued
Bishop Tuttle, violates, and local op-
ton supports, this principle. There
fore l am opposed to statewide pro-
hibition and am for local option.
Il side with Bishop Tuttle" declared
the Rev. w. B. McKitrrick, pastor of
the First Presbyterian church at Sarah
street and Washington boulevard.
Doctor McKittrick was not at the
conference of the st. Louis Presby-
terry last week when a resolution was
adopted favoring statewide prohibition
1t is known, however, that debate up
on statewide prohibition was lengthy
and that the st. Louis church has sew
eral insurgents.
Il am strongly in favor of local
option" declared the Rev. S. ]. Mic
coils, pastor of the Second Presby-
terian Church, Taylor avenue and
Westminster Place. "While I should
be very glad if we had statewide and
national prohibition, l do not believe
we are ready for it yet l favor local
option as the most satisfactory way
of settling the liquor problem"

OCTOBER TERM OF DISTRICT
COURT CONVENES MONDAY

The October term of the district
court will convene in this city next
Monday. owing to the fact that so
many of the attorneys are at this time
deeply interested in the political stu
alton, it is thought that the term will
be short lived, as all cases that can
be postponed will likely be done so.
However there are several important
cases that are on the docket for this
term and the proceedings of the term
will be watched with interest in Vim
tia.
Owing to the special investigation
that will be made through the action
of the Law and Order League, the
work of the grand jury, which meets
Tuesday, will also be watched, as sew
eral sensations, it is said will follow
this investigation.

period. The average rate of loss to
premium receipts of such companies
was 62.2 per cent. Add to that the 2
per cent tax on premium receipts, the

age expense account of 35 per cent of

panies Jared somewhat better, the
three reporting showing loss ratio of
SO per cent.
The total gross risks written in Ok
lahoma by foreign and domestic fire
and hail companies was $255, 1861. .S7724

losses paid also show an increase from
$1,796,146.61 in 1908 to 1888, ,727S4.

AIll~OdIOOU
League,
Oklahoma City, Okla.
Dear Sir: l have previous to this
twice written you proposing that in
fairness to the people of Oklahoma
you join us in selecting a number of
representative business ruen-men who
have stood always for Oklahomas
good name and best interest-to in.
vestigate and report the exact condi.
tions created by prohibition, in this
state.
You have lodged and quibbled but
have evaded entirely this proposal.
The time is short and l therefore re-
peat this request in the hope that
you will give it your immediate at
Itention. In the selection Of these men
our only demand will be that they be
free minded, fair men, open to con-
viction and willing to tell the people
exactly what they find regarding law
enforcement, corruption and graft in
connection with prohibition.
II you refuse to accept this third
proposal made to you, we and the pub
lie will be bound to understand that
your refusal is prompted by a guilty
knowledge of the facts and fear of
results.
| desire to call your attention also
to the fact that instead of taking the
people into your confidence as we have
done, you are making what appears
to us to be studied misrepresentation
regarding the law initiated by the peo-
pie and to be voted on November Sth.
You have absolutely deserted pro-
hibition so far as making any claims
for its morality or virtue.
You know that prohibition has Great.
ed the road-house evil, debauching and
destroying their character and build
ing for criminal future.
You know that in every populous
community in Oklahoma there are
more Dllnd tigers and bootlegging
joints than their were regulated sa-
looms during the license days and you
also know that practically every popu-
lous city in the state in Oklahoma DO
lice records show more crime and
more drunkenness than ever existed in
the state before.
You know that the internal revenue
department reports nearly nineteen
hundred government licenses for the
sale of liquor last year in Oklahoma
and you also know that by comparison
this is much greater than those held |
IN New Mexico, North Carolina, North |
Dakota, South Carolina, Utah, Yer
mont, West Virginia, Wyoming, Ari- |
zona, Florida, Idaho or New Hamp-
shire and that this fact of itself con-
lemns your program.
You are attempting to cloud the is
sue with an attack upon the proposed |
aw based entirely upon false theories

in, Liverpool, you know, made herself
rich with slave trade"
On another occasion she said, very sar-
castically: Have you no men in America
who fight without pay? Have you no men
patriotic enough to volunteer in case Of
warp
you ought to be able to answer that
question yourself, madam" 1 answered,
with inward glee, I'VE have shown you
twice that we have pretty good volun-
teers." Whereupon we both laughed and
mentally shook hands over the bloody
chasm."
1t is quite touching to see these aged
rheumatic English women pull themselves
up and stand while they sing God Save
the King" 1t is quite the custom in New
York and other eastern cities to stand
during the singing or playing of America"
and the Star Spangled Banner" in
restaurants and theaters, but as 1 recol-
lect, further west we do not all pay this
mark of respect to the national hymn.
Speed the day when we decide upon
our national hymn. Every time the Eng
lsh sing God Save the King we Ameri-
cans bunch ourselves together and sing
our own words
why don't you get a national hymn
OF your OWN" they say. You borrowed
that from the Germans and they from
the Austrians," we retort. Then some
one says The Star Spangled Banner is
really our national song" We try to sing
1t; but the air does not adapt itself to
ordinary voices and the words sound too
warlike fol a peaceful nation. First one
voice dies out or gets left behind, and then
one by one the others fall II is all right
for a high soprano solo, but almost i'm
possible for a general audience. The songs
foreigners wish TO hear are the negro mel
odies, Swing Low. Sweet Chariot" "Su-
vance River" My Old Kentucky Home"
odd Black Joe'-these they like and call
for over and over. A music student with
whom / lived last winter told me 1t kept
her busy apologizing for my awful
musical taste" but there Is something
about way Down Upon the suwanee
River" that just suits and satisfies me,
And when l can hear it sung by the deep,
rich melodious, unspoiled voices of
genuine southern negroes I enjoy it more
than the vocal pyrotechncs of many OF
the grand operas.
