The first speech by Exf resident
Roosevelt on his present tour, given
In The Bulletin OF Wednesday was
one OF advice to farmers, and al.
though Mr.. Roosevelt may be desig.
mated as a proxy farmer" he pre-,
sents ideas which the practical far
mer will approve and which many
OF them have adopted. To apply
science and business methods to
farming is one of the great needs of
the average small farmer, The big
fellows have long since applied these
necessary requisites to success. And
perhaps one Of the most important of
Mr. Roosevelt's suggestions is that
the home and social life OF the far.

farmers wife and children are so

FEDERAL PRIMARY

RECT NOMINATION OF PREsl.
DENTAL CANDIDATES.
Present Method Unfair Because +.
Permits States to Nominate
Which Never Help to
Elect Presidents.

Des Moines, la, Aug. Ex-senator
Albert B. Cummlns today authorized
the publication Of a statement of a
plan which he has in mind for the
enactment of a national primary law
for the nomination of candidates for
president and vice president.
When congress convenes Senator
Cummins will introduce a bill provid-
ing for such legislation. He declared
that If congress did not act upon the
measure within a reasonable time he
would attempt to secure legislation
regulating the national conventions.
and providing that the party vote be
the basis of representation instead OF
population Said he:
That the nominations for president
and vice president may be determ-
ined at any time If not at all times,
and. indeed, actually has been de
termined, by the vote of delegates
from states which cast practically no
votes for the party ticket and never
elect the party electoral ticket, is alb,
surd and indefensibe, for manifestly
it is unfair to the voters who do elect
the candidates of the parry.
Present System Unfair.
Anyone will perceive that it can.
not be fair that the 10000 or $4,000
Republicans in Georgia, a state whose
vote never is cast for the Republican
electoral ticket. shall have in the ma
tional Republican convention exactly
equal voice with the $4,000 Republi.

SHR|NKAGE FOLLOWS
TURMOIL Of WEEK
VOLUME OF STOCK DEALINGS
DECREASES WITH CESSATION
OF WILD ACTIVITY.
Rock Island Watched Closely As
Possible Further Disturbing Fac
tor-Await Message.

NEW YORK, Jan. "a shrinkage
in the dealings in stocks today &C
cOmpanied the quieting of the tur-
mOil in which the market has moved
this week. The early market reflected
some remaining unsettlement and
there was some recurrence at the last.
Rock Island was watched closely as
a possible further disturbing factor,
and it's weak decline started the gen.
eral market backward after the open
ing advance in sympathy
The manner in which the activity
died out on the recovery indicated a
lack of conviction in the buying, and
left sentiment uncertain. The hesi-
tatiOn was partly due to a report
afterward corrected-that the presen-
tatiOn of the presidents special mes
sage to congress would be delayed
until Monday.
The distribution of the advance cop
les of the message brought into Wall
street offices the usual inkling of it's
contents. The knowledge thus Sc
cured brought with it professions of
confidence that the effect of the read
ing of the full message would prove
reassuring to corporation and capital
interests which had been apprehen-
sive.
The Bank of England official dis
count rate was expected to come down
as it did, but the event was a factor
in the early advance in stocks. Fur

modified the favorable view of the
money outlook to some extent. 1t is

The more active demand for time

The heavy liquidation in the cotton
market had the effect of releasing
funds to the money market.
Copper industrials were especially
benefited by the reports that the shut
down of the works in Montana on
account of the railroad switchmen's
strike had been averted. The heavy
storm damage to the railroads ana
the obstruction of traffic weighed on

The Chance Acquaintance

The question of just how to accept
the chance acquaintance is very
perplexing and important one. Very
frequently there are opportunities
which supply an unconventional basis
for conversation or intimacy which
the we'll bred woman would never
consider under different circumstances
Accidents and the subsequent dis.
cussion generally break down the bar
riers of formality. You find yourself
exchanging views as to the cause OF
the affair, and the queer part of it is
that woman will become engaged in
a conversation with a man. This some
times leads to an extended exchange
of views and an unwarranted friendll-
ness.
Now l do not wish to check any lit
tie humane impulse to offer Or accept
assistance from a stranger at a time
when there is urgent need. But I dc
wish to impress upon my readers the
fact that there is a dignified way tC
do this. When a gentleman offers his
assistance in a sincere, manly way
you can either refuse in a reserved

They are wrong.
There is one perfectly good way Of
keeping out of the yellow journals and
that is never to get into any scandals
that they will care to exploit.
l shall never forget a little incident
that came to my notice when I was
a very young newspaper woman
DO you see that man who's just
going out?" the city editor asked me
l looked and admitted that I did see
pair of rather shambly shoulders re-
treating through the door of the city
room
THAT man. continued the editor,
came in here to try to get his divorce
proceedings kept out of the paper.
There was some unusually disa-
greeable testimony this afternoon His
wife told how he got drunk and did
things no decent man would do, and he
wants that testimony hushed up.
Il asked him if there was any spe-
cial reason why we should keep his
case out any more than anyone's, and
he said because of his mother, that
it would break her heart"
My sympathies were aroused at that.
"And what did you tell him." I asked
eagerly.
81 told him. answered the editor,
that he should have thought of his
mothers heart when he was getting
drunk"
Even while / rebelled at the cruelty
of that / admitted it's justice.
No, certainly do not think it would
be a good thing if divorces could be
procured quietly think it would be a
very dangerous one.
Everyone admits that fear Of the
searchlight of publicity helps to pre-.
vent political crime.
Why not martial?

MIR. HILL says Professor Whitney.
lis right in saying that our ills are
not keeping up with the demands of
our people for foodstuffs. But this is
not dut to a falling off in productivity. .
Science, he goes on to show, indicates
that productivity has kept pace with
the per capita growth. Then why the
increase in cost? Obviously, says the
professor, because of an increased de-
mand per captain increased national
appetite, desire for more food.
Mr. Hill said something of this SORT
himself some time ago, but since Pro-
lessor Whitney doesn't refer to it
being engaged with science principally
probably Mr.. Hill didn't state it to
him personally.
