were last seen yesterday by the toll
keeper of the Uncas Camp at Scot

the dam was found today. and the
theory was abandoned that the boys
disappeared by drowning. The scar
ers worked on the theory that the
boys became lost in the woods and
probably were frozen to death. The
territory to be covered in the prose-
cution of the hunt is a forest fully ID
miles square.
Spencer and Darrow were among the

WILL IORIMER RESIGN
OR FIGHT TO THE END?

Washington, Feb. "a riddle in the
case Of Senator William Lorimer is
whether he is going to resign or fight
on to the end which, it seems appar-
ent, will be his expulsion.
His friends declare that he will not
resign; that he feels such action would
be accepted as an admission that his
election was due to corrupt practices
Lorimer indicated, when the debate on
his case was begun in the Senate that
he would close the discussion in his
own behalf. Pressure has been brought
by the Republicans Senators upon
Lorimer to induce him to resign in
order to close the scandal and save
them from the d dsagreea BILE duty of
voting that a Senator of their party
was elected by illegal methods Lorim-
er may be brought to accept that
view. of the situation but his friends
regard 1t, today, as improbable.

FATHER OF TRUSTS

RAILROADS
Especial from United Press.) }


Akron. O., Feb. FIN letter sent,
today, to members of Congress, rail-
road officials and chambers of COM
merce throughout the country, Ohio c.
Barber, multi-millonaire organizer Of
the match trust, the father OF Ameri-
can trusts asks What is wrong with
Congress? Isn't it chiefly that Con-
gress no longer represents the people;
that it is the servant Of Wall street
and dances only when the system pulls
the string?''
Barber charges that the burden i'm
posed upon the American people by
the railroad is 10 times greater than
that imposed by the tariff. Continu-
ing, he says:
''Not content, the railroads want
10 per cent increase in freight rates
which would amount in added earn
ings to approximately $3.50, 0,0O0 900 or
amount 10 dollars more to family.
''They don't explain how much it
adds to your cost of living to pay div
idends upon $4,000, 100000 of watered
stock. If Congress is really in earnest
in desire to relieve the plain peo-
pie, let it create a companion board

B00kS--WHAT THEY
ARE FOR and The
WAY TO USE THEM
Lecture Bsfsre the Chautauqua
Assembly Today by Dan
iel w. Howell

"Books,-what Ethey are and what
they're for" was sTthe subject of a lee
ture delivered before the Chautauqua
today at the Colonial ball room on
Fairfield avenue, the speaker being
Daniel w. Howell, of Chautauqua,
New York, one of the best known
Chautauqua men on the platform to-
day.
Mr.. Howell is interested in the
Chautauqua scientific and literary
circles which are promoting the read
ing of better books.
ST tell you that it is a very grave
problem" said the speaker, 1.-The kind
Of books the people of America are
reading at the present day.
II visited library after library in
this country and inquired of the lib
rarians the kind of books that the
people were taking out, and in every
case the librarian was obliged to hang
his head for shame
The speaker condemned the mod
ern novel, which is read for the
story's sake alone, and said that peo-
pie should read fewer books, and bet
ter ones, and should read them un-
derstandingly. instead of simply
glancing through them.
"How many kinds of books are
there?" asked the speaker.
1.-TWO kinds" replied someone in
the audience.
What are they?" asked Mr.
Howell.
.'Good books and good for nothing
books" was the reply.
That's right" said the speaker;
there are two kinds of books, good
books and bad and we should be very
careful to see that we read only the
good ones. I tell you. it is high time
that some kind of a speaker on some
kind Of platform made a stand on
this subject. One of the greatest
forces for evil in this country today
is the bad book.

No government can hope to live ffsit
cannot provide the means by which
it lives, if it cannot protect its own
existence. 1t is this very power which
this joint resolution proposes to de-
stroy so far as it relates to the cleo
destruction. the resolution, by direct
and affirmative words, gives the
whole control of the election of Sem
ators to the several states. This plan
violates the fundamental principle up
on which the trainers of the constitu
government, the principle without
which they did not believe, and their
belief was founded on bitter expert
ence, that any government, could pos
sibly survive. 1t is now proposed to
put the United States government, so
far as the election of Senators is con-
cerned, at the mercy of the states.
It is proposed to take from the United
States any power to protect its own
citizens in the exercise Of their rights,
no matter how great the need may
be for such protection. If this amend
ment should become a. law, twenty
three states, including perhaps only a
minority of the population, could at
any moment arrest the movement Of
the government and stop all it's oper-
ations. To change the mechanism of
choosing Senators, or Presidents, or
representatives, LIS a serious matter
requiring careful consideration, but
this new proposition strikes at the
very root of the national government.
1T is proposed here to take from

of stress, will assure its existence I
cannot believe that the country would
tolerate it If it were once understood.
