AUTO DROPS THIRTY FEET.
Two Men Have Remarkable Es-
cane in Randolph Accident,

James C. McAfee of Brockton and
Joseph w. Desmond, 3 Howard street,
Randolph, escaped death when Nc
Afee's automobile crashed through the
railing of the Liberty street bridge in
Randolph and dropped 80 feet to the
railroad tracks.
McAfee, who is a civil engineer en-
ployed by the Brockton Gas Company,
was driving through Randolph at 10
miles an hour when he started to cross
the bridge. Ahead of him in the road
was an ice wagon owned by H. L. Paul
and carriage being driven by the Rev.
DR.. Shipper, pastor of the Randolph
Baptist church.
To avoid a collision McAfee swung
his car to the right and it skidded
against the railing. Both men were
thrown from the machine as it broke
through the fence. Desmond, spinning
through the air, turned half dozen
somersauts before striking the track,
but landed on his feet and escaped with
out a scratch.
The driver of the car struck the
ground on his side and was rendered
unconscious, but soon recovered. He
received many bruises and scratches,
but with the exception of a scalp
wound received no serious injuries.
He went to his home in Brockton.
The car, which landed wheels up or
the railroad track, was completely
wrecked.

Deceiving Only Themse

The Taft "strategists" and bosses
inside the Republican national commit
tee who are going through with their
program of looting all the delegates in
the contested cases are foolng them
selves worst of all. They are not de-
ceiving the country. They are COM
PEELED now to carry on their burglary in
the eyes of the whole nation.
They added new evidence of their
cold-blooded determination in the Ken
lucky contests yesterday, when they
ignored full showing of majorities for
Roosevelt and illegality and crooked
ness in convention. The boldness of the
tactics staggered few men into voting
for decency. But the repudiated bosses
closed up ranks and seized the seats.
The Roosevelt committeeman voted to
seat Taft delegates when there was the
slightest doubt. The Taft committee
men voted to unseat Roosevelt dele
gates when there was not the slightest
doubt of their fair election.
They gave amazing proof of their
desperation. They proved that they
are entirely reckless of the future OF
the party. They have proved them
selves traitors to the great body OF
Republicans, looking only for theii
own future, which they imagine they
can secure by the same chicanery
There is no limit to which these master
Crane, Barnes, Penrose anc
New-will not go.
When they have completed the pro
gram on which they decided before they
went into committee they may have the
delegates, but they will have dis
credited themselves and the Taft candi
dacy before the whole country.
By the time they have finished they
will have exposed the extent of theil
fraud and their disregard of all decency
and honesty. They will have aidec
Roosevelt's cause in every State in the
Union with the people. They will have
reused the country. and its declaration
will be that no man with regard fol
justice will permit the people to be
robbed of their rights. Boston Journal

Extracts From RooseveIt's Speech


"As far as Mr.. Taft and are person
ally concerned it little matters what the
fate of either may be. But with Mr..
Taft's acquiescence or by his direction,
and in his interest, his followers have
raised an issue which is all important
to this country. 1t is not partisan
ISSUE it is great moral issue"
Were Lincoln alive today he would
add that it is also the same principle
which is now at stake when we fight on
behalf of the many against the oppressor
in modern industry, whether the abuse
of special privilege be by man whose
wealth is great or is little, whether by
the multi-milionaire owner of rail-
ways and mines and factories who for
gets his duties to those who earns his
bread while earning their own, or by
the owner of the foul little sweatshop
who coins dollars from the excessive
and underpaid labor of haggard
women"
when in February last | made up
my mind that it was my duty to enter
this fight, it was after long and careful
deliberation. | had become convinced
that Mr. Taft had definitely and com
pletely abandoned the cause of the
people and had surrendered himself
wholly to the biddings of the profess
sional political bosses and of the great
,,,fa 70 cta hnh ind
them.
at is bad enough to have the victory
stolen by the bosses that are living, but
it is an added outrage to have it stolen
by the bosses that are among the I'M
buried dead"
Col. Roosevelt said that any action of
the convention, if brought about by the
delegates "fradulently seated" would
not be binding on the party.
1.-THE question involved in the action
of the national committee is of vastly
more Importance than my nomination or
the nomination of any man. The whole
system of the corrupt alliance between
crooked business and crooked politics is
at stake in the making up of this tenn
porary roll, it has been made up crook
eddy by the majority of the nationa
committee with the purpose of perpetu-
ating the rule of the corrupt politlca
boss, even when the people have de-
clared against it.
''We who war against privilege pay
heed to no outworn system of philoso
ply. We demand of our leaders today
understanding of and sympathy will
the living and vital needs of those il
the community whose needs are great
est. We are against privilege in every
form. We believe in striking dowr
every bulwark of privilege. Above al
we are against the evil alliance o.
special privilege in business with specia
business in politics. We believe in Civ
ing the people free hand to work il
efficient fashion for true justice Tt
the big man and to the little man, in al
the relations of life, we pledge justic,
and fair dealing. THE Commoner.

FRIDAY, JUNE FL, 1912.

Facts are often very Illuminating
Southern States which cast only 80, 900
Republican votes, and never furnished
the party with presidential elector,
have $50 delegates at the national con-
vention. Vermont casts about 100000
Republican votes, always gives her
electors to that party, and has eight
delegates at the convention, and there
are other Republican States that have
an even smaller percentage of delegates
as compared to their votes.
Still further, the great Republican
States of the North, which keep the
party in power at Washington, have
repudiated President Taft by more than
300, 900 majority.

Automobile Hits Load of Dyna'
mite.

New York, June 14.-An automobile
ran full tilt into 1000 pounds of dyna-
mite on East Ninteenth street this
afternoon. The driver of the wagon
load of explosives was thrown from his
seat and his two horses knocked down.
The dynamite did not explode. If it
had, it is figured that it would have
wiped out whole city block together
with the lives of hundreds on the near
by streets.
The only punishment of the chauffeur
was the fright he sustained when told
of his narrow escape.

fairs of the republic, which makes it
imperative that the Government shall
be returned to the hands of the people ;
that it shall be made responsive to the
many instead of the privileged few.
POPULAR GOVERNMENT.
In free government it is necessary
that the instrumentalities of carrying
out the popular will shall be exercised
directly by the people. Candidates for
President should be selected by the d.
rect preference primaries. United States
Senators should be elected directly by
the people. Other devices for maintain
ing the direct responsiveness of govern
ment should be adopted in States and
communities in accordance with the
principle of local government.
TARIFF.
The Republican party pledges itself tc
d RtlulHC ItNlolOll VI IIC ldIlll Ill az
cordance with the findings of a tariff
board that shall report directly to Con-
gress. A reduction of duties wherever
shown necessary by the tariff board is
guaranteed, and revision shall be eff
fected one schedule at time.
INDUSTRIAL.
An industrial commission which shall
investigate and report the benefits
which working men derive from the
protective tariff is recommended anC
the findings of this body are to be con.
sidered in the revision of duties.
TRUSTS.
A central national body, similar to ar
Interstate Commerce Commission, tc
enforce publicity of the affairs of large
corporations and to regulate theii
methods of conducting business.
MONEY.
The party pledges itself to a revision
and strengthening of the monetary law.
with a view to making the financa
system of the country more responsive
to modern demands. But any plar
which would result in a Capitalization O.
credit is unqualifiedly condemned.
woMAN's SUFFRAGE.
The Republican party declares its be
lief that the suffrage should be EXTENDED
to women and promises national legisla
ton on that subject.
CONSERVATION.
The interests of the country demant
the early formulation of a comprehen
sive plan for the development of dee
waterways, particularly a ship cana
from the Great Lakes to the Gulf 0
Mexico. The reclamation of the swami
lands of the South should be inaugurate
on the plan which has resulted in the re
clamation of the arid lands of the West
The equipment used for the constructio
of the Panama Canal should be transfer
red to this undertaking as soon as tn
canal is completed. In Alaska, tn
conservation of the nations coal depos
its should be carried out by a system O
leasing mining rights for stated period
and at stated compensation to the gov
eminent. The coal fields should be cor

SHOULD BIZ RESUBNlITTED.

An effort is to be made at the pres
ent session Of the legislature 10 re-
submit to the people the amendment
to the constitution allowing city treas
urers and commissioners OF the reve-
nue. to succeed themselves after two
consecutive terms in office. Tie peo-
pie refused to ratify this amendment
when they voted Sl it i'll 1910, al
though they ratified the companion
amendment, allowing county treas
urcrs and commissioners Of the reve-
nue. to be elected as often as they
could induce u majority Of the voters
to vote for them. There would ap-
pear to be no good reason why there
should be discrimination in this mat
ter as between county and city Off
Gals, and the question should be
reopencd.

FOR INJURED WoRKMEN.

II a workman in factory in Mis-
souri, gets caught in machine and
loses an arm, he may sue for dam
ages, hiring a lawyer on a percentage
basis. In the course of years he may
get a verdict, says the Kansas City
Star. The money that finally comes
to him is only fraction of the amount
awarded. Meanwhile the courts are
clogged with personal injury cases.
In the state of Washington Mr.. ]. A.
Harzfeld, president of the public util.
tiles commission, points out, the in
iured workman is at once paid q
definite sum out of a fund collected
by the state. He needs no lawyer.
He gets all there is coming to him
and he gets it without delay. That is
the result of the Washington work.
mems compensation act, which was
signed last March. Incidentally, 1t Is
refreshing to note the opinion Of the
Washington supreme court in sustain
ing the act after the New York court
of appeals had held a somewhat SIM
liar law unconstitutional. The opin-
ion, written by Judge Fullerton, con-
siders the New York decision and
says: Notwithstanding the decision

The search continues for cheap
paving material capable of withstand
ing the wear and tear Especially the
tear) of automobiles. For the less
used highways several fairly salts
factory ways have been found to hold
the broken stone in place, but IN
places where traffic is constant and
fierce the problem is not SO simple.
I'm the Bronx IS different kinds OF
pavement have been laid in the hope
of finding something both lasting and
cheap enough for ordinary roads.
Some we're found worthless, while 9th.
ers have been standing the test thus
far fairly we'll. An analysis of the
bituninous binders used was made By
the United States Office of public
roads, and levels were taken to ascer'
tain the amount Of wear. On main
roads where traffic is heaviest it may
prove cheapest in the long run to put
in a permanent pavement of brick,
wood blocks, or asphalt, but for high.
ways at large the cost would be pro
hibilive. and a satisfactory binder is
still looked for.

TO the Editor Of the Gazette:
Dr.. Edwin A. Alderman, president
or the University of Virginia, at Char
lottesville. announces that he intends
TO enter upon campaign 10 bring
about the compulsory medical atten-
tion to public school children in
Virginia. He cites other states where
such a law exists. Yes. and in these
states the law has been made at the
bchest OF doctors and educators with
no regard TO the people concerned
Such is the status of all compulsory
laws. In Boston there is d :;rca,
howl going up over the operation Of
the law. The Boston Post in big head
lines says: Physical Examination in
Schools Raises Protests.
The fact is. that unless we want
Socialism. this thing of State help

must be stopped. The Socialists
claim that with free State education
as a starter. all things will follow,
and it really seems that they are do
ing so, With The educators OF the Dr..
Alderman stripe playing to them.
From compulsory education the step
10 compulsory medical service Is
easy. Ii is alleged that We want
compulsory education to equip the
citizen mentally. and then comes the
point that we want compulsory med

BUILDING UP A NEW WORD
Science Responsible for More Built.
UP Words Than Classic English
Ever Dreamed Of.

'Esophagoscopy' is one OF the
newest words which the scientist OF
necessity has coined. As science has
progressed in its many lines, it has
been responsible for more "built-up'
terms than classic English could have
dreamed Of.
Take this new word, 'esophagos-
COPY" It is combination of the noun
"esophagus," meaning the channel
through which the food from the
mouth reaches the stomach, while
the last two syllables are made OF
"scope"-as used in telescope. micro
scope, spectroscope Thus the COM
bination suggests a way and means
for allowing the surgeon to look down
the esophagus in search OF Foreign
distractions or of injuries to the or
gan.
One of the leading physicians OF st.
Paul has been gathering statistics
showing the enormous number and
variety of foreign substances that are
swallowed by persons of all ages and
which often result fatally. He says
that in almost any case of the kind
min. needle. button, bone and even
teeth plates are swallowed and in the
beginning may be little more than an
unpleasantness. Here is the oppor-
tunity for using the esophagoscope.
Before the sharp substance has
chance to perforate the esophagus the
combined mirror and electric light
may be inserted, the object seen ana
removed without harm. If the op-
strnction be left. however. it starts
irritation. becomes fostering wound
which almost invariably will cause
death.
