DIDN'T HELP TAFT.
Senator Bristow Asserts Presidents
Trip Was Ineffective.

Washington, Oct. Ex-senator Joseph
L. Bristow of Kansas and Senator
Jonathan Bourne of Oregon, who met
in Washington Friday, both are Of tn
opinion that the cause of Taft is hop
less everywhere west Of the Mississippi
river and that it is very weak in the
middle west
The two insurgent statesmen held
conference on politics at a country
club. Senator Bristow is in the city
on his way to the Panama canal. Ser
ator Bourne has been here for several
weeks looking after the affairs of the
National Progressive Republican league.
Il do not believe President Taft m
fuenced a single man in Kansas who
was not for him before" said Senator
Bristow. How could he?
The Canadian reciprocity pact was
unpopular in Kansas from the first.
Frightened because of it our people sold
their wheat early at low figures. Then
when Canada voted the treaty down,
wheat went up u cents a busheL Nat

SOUTH SIDE MEETING
Boosters Formulate Plans to Improve
Their Section of City.

A well attended meeting of the South
Side Boosters club, an organization oil
residents of the First and Second pre-
cincts of the Fifth ward, whose civic
pride is bearing fruit in the improve
ment of South Topeka, was held last
evening at the home of NJ. W. Gilmore,
Fifteenth street and Kansas avenue
Many projects inaugurated by the
Booster club have been successfully
carried out in the past, and their
slogan is to keep everlastingIy at il
until the South side is made just as
attractive as any other section of the
city. The use of the old creekbed Of
the Shunganunga for the dumping or
miscellaneous refuse again came before
the club and it was declared an out
rage that the city fathers would permit
it, particularly in the face of repeated
protests by the city and state health
officers. 1t was argued that the hole
should be filled, but the class of filler
should be such that it would not en-
danger the health of the community
adjacent nor be an eyesore to strangers
passing through that part of the city.
Capt. c. H. Titus offered some sound
advice and good suggestions to the
club, and without sparing any MEM
Der showed where there had been i
lack of united action in the past. Afta'
Capt. Titus brief but earnest address
the determination was apparent to act
upon his suggestions, and if all are
carried out South Topeka will be a
point of interest on the route of the
'Seeing-Topeka" tours in future.
The Boosters club will meet next
month in the assembly room of the
Van Buren, school, and it will be the
aim of the members to enlist the in
terest of the mothers of the South side
in this meeting and include an address
by superintendent Starr if possible, IL
the program.
A effort will be made at once to in
crease the membership to 200 or more,
and it is reasonable to expect an even
larger list from the two largest pre-
cincts of the city.
Following the business session last
evening refreshments were served by
Mrs Gilmore, and a short literary pro-
gram was enjoyed by those present.
The get together spirit of the South
side civic boosters must result in great

ARCHER JURY OUT
No Verdict in Murder Case After "a
Hours.

At 3 o'clock this afternoon there
was little hope for a verdict in the
Archer murder case. The jury has
been out since o'clock Friday even

Whitcomb that there was little hope
for an agreement. The court sent
word to the jurors that they would
have to do more guessing on the case.
The twelve men who have spent the
week trying the case worked until 3
o'clock this morning trying to reach
a verdict, but at that time were far
apart Then they were discharged
for the night. This morning they
asked to have William Murphys dy
ing declaration read a second time and
the states attorneys had high hopes
for an early verdict and conviction
on some degree of murder or man
the men were still unable to agree
and were taken to lunch. Thirty min
utes later they returned to the court
house and at o'clock had not reach
ed an agreement.

to set out a few saplings and let them

furnish apples for his own use he is
satisfied. If he has more than be needs
