Speaks of "Hypocritical Pro-
gressives" in Kansas.
SENATOR BRISTOW RESPONDS
Place In Presence of President
Taft and Audience of 10000
People in Hutchinson.

Hutchinson, Kan, Sept 27.-Before
an audience of 10000 people at the
Kansas semi centennial celebration
and in the presence of President Taft
Walter l.. Fisher, secretary of the in
terrier, measured verbal lances with
Joseph l.. Bristow, Kansas insurgent
senator
The fight came without word O,
warning. Not a quarter of the people
even knew that Fisher was present
Governor Stubs called upon him I'M
eXpecteGly for a speech and before
the insurgent executive knew what
was happening. Fisher had put his heel
on the neck of "hypocritical and
demagogical progressives" and had
his audience in an uproar. Governor
Stubs was on his feet before Fisher
had ceased talking and crowded into
the first pause to introduce to the au-
dience Their great senator, whom
every kansan knows"
Then Senator Bristow went after
Mr.. Fisher. He seized the opportuni-

"hypocritical prcgressives" as an I'M
pugnment of the integrity of the citi-
zenship of Kansas and demanded that
the people Of other states concede the
honesty of the people of Kansas as
Kansans admitted the honesty of 9th
ers. He drove home the local note
in his speech for all that was in him
and his appeal caught the ears of the
excited crowd.
The rumpus came on the end of a
wea 'isome, uneventful day Presi-
dent Taft had just completed his read
ing of an address on the history of
Kansas. Ten thousand people had
gathered at the fair grounds to listen
to the president and Governor Stubs,
who presided, had warmed them up
with some Of his fulsome praise and
a few epigrammatic expressions
culled practically verbatim from the
oft-spoken speeches of Colonel Roose-
welt upon the taby crop, and which
the governor adorned with more facial
contortions and hand swinging than
those speeches lad ever known be-
fore.
The crowd had expected a rousing
speech from Mr.. Taft. 1t was evident
that they wearied a bit of the history
of their state as the president read
1t to them. But the people hung on
and during the presidents address it
had evidently been borne upon the
mind of Governor Stubs that if he
would place Secretary Fisher before
them he could wake things up" But
1t was palapably a surprise to the
governor when Mr.. Fisher chose that
particular note for the awakening
which he governor as future presi-
dental candidate has been most
anxious of late to let slumber.

Punice,

The geological survey says that the
pumice produced in the United States
in 1909 was of the value of $33,43s.
and the value of the puInice imported
was nearly three times as great. The
native supply comes principally from
deposits in Hardin and Lincoln coun-
ties, Nebraska.
Pumice is an acid volcanic rock,
which may be in either massive or
finely comminuted form. II owes its
peculiar porous, vascular or pumice-
Gus condition to the rapid expansion of
included moisture or gases due to sud-
den release of pressure at the time OF
its election from the volcano. This ex-
pansion may be carried to such an ex-
tent that the rock is completely shat
tered, and the resultant finely powder
ed material may be car ried to- I'M
known distances by wind and air cur
rents and then deposited in beds sew
eral feet thick. The Nebi aska deposits
are considered to have originated in
this way.-New York Sun.
