Daylight shook his head and smiled.

A minute later she was back again
"He refuses to hang up. He told
me to tell you that Unwin is in the
office now, waiting to see you, and
Harrison too Mr.. Hogan said that
Grimshaw and Hodgkins are in trouble.
That it looks as If they are going to
break. And he said something about
protection"
1t was startling information. Both
Unwin and Harrison represented big
banking corporations, and Daylight
knew that If the house of Grimshaw
and Hodgkins went 1t would precipi-

He caught her by the hand and drew
her to him.
"You let Hogan hang on to that line
till he's tired. We can't be wasting
second on him on day like this
But l know something of the fight
you have been making" Dede con-
tended. IF you stop now, all the work
you have done, everything, will be de-
stroyed. You have no right to do it.
You can't do it."
Daylight was obdurate. He shook
his head and smiled tantalizingly.
Nothing will be destroyed, Dede,
nothing. You don't understand this
business game. It's done on paper.
All I stand for is paper. I've got the
paper for thousands of acres of land.
All right. Burn up the paper, and
burn me along with it. The land re-
mains, don't it? Nothing is going to
be lost--not one pile out of the docks,
not one railroad spike, not one ounce

There's no need for the rest. They

She shook her head and showed him
in.

back. "Grimshaw and Hodgkins are
going to smash If something isn't
done quick. Why didn't you come to
the Office? What are you going to do
about it,"
Nothing Daylight drawled lazily.
Except let them smash / guess. I've
had no dealings with Grimshaw and
Hodgkins. don't owe them anything.
besides, I'm going to smash myself.
Look here, Larry you know me. You

mind. I'm tired of the whole game.
I'm letting go of it as fast as ] can,

yourself and all our friends. Now you

body that stood by me must come
through without damage. All the back

What have you done to him? He.
gan snarled at Dede
Hold on there, Larry" For the
first time Daylight's voice was sharp,
while all the old lines of cruelty In his
face stood forth. Miss Mason is go-
ing to be my wife, and while don't
mind your talking to her all you want, |
you've got to use a different tone Of
voice or you'll be heading for hos
pital, which will sure be an unex-

He turned to Dede as soon as He

WITH ROOSEVELT.
FORMER GOVERNOR HASKELL
SEES MUCH GOOD IN PROGRESS
SIVE POLICIES.

Oklahoma City, Sept. when Ihe-
odore Roosevelt visited Oklahoma TWO
wears ago Governor Haskell, who was
then also treasurer of the national
democratic committee, challenged him
to a debate on political questions.
When asked as to what course he
would pursue on the occasion OF Col
onel Roosevelt's trip through the
state this month, the former governor
declared that he would not renew his
challenge.
Among the REASONS given Haskell
states that: "NIr. Roosevelts present
platform and contentious seem to be
so much along the line of Jeffersonian
democracy and the demands of the
common people that there would be
little ground for debate between us.
Governor Haskell then decided that he
preferred to give out a signed state

Jackson, Mich. Sept. With the
prison revolt here entirely suppress

today and the flogging that prison
officials are giving the unruly con-
victs who attempted a Wholesale
delivery last Tuesday is one the Ike
OF which has never before been re-
corded in the state of Michigan.
Fifteen We're flogged today. The
method employed is regarded as the
most brutal form of prison punish
ment.
Each convict to be flogged is tied
over a barrel, which has been placed
on the middle of ladder. The vic
TINS ankles and wrists are securely
strapped to the rungs of the ladder
and the man lis gagged so that he
cannot cry out.
A three-inch hard leather paddle
which had been soaked in brine is
used and the victim Is given from
ten to thirty blows, according to
the direction of the warden, Blood
is drawn on the back of the writhing
and convulsed convict in every in
stance and when a victim Is taken
from the barrel he oftentimes is in
unconscious state. His wrists
nd ankle are cut deep by the
bands that bound rim as he squirmed
under the punishment.
Much protest has gone up against
the extremity of the method employ
ed to punish the Jail breakers and
the prison warden and officials re-
fuse to discuss the floggings.
Seventy-five convicts altogether
must go under the lash. The men

BOTH CONFIDENT
 RESULT IN OHIO
Taft Teddy Primary Tomorrow to Tell the Tale

Cleveland, May 20-At the close of the fercest Presidential delegate cam paign in the history of Ohio, Presi- dent Taft and Theodore Roosevelt to- day expressed equal confidence in the result of the Statewide primaries to- morrow. Tn the final dash for the victory, the two principal candidates were Joined today by Senator Robert M. LaFollette, who is seeking the se- lection of Republican National dele gates only in districts covering Cleve- land. Toledo and Columbus.
 Taft struck out from Cincinnati ear ly in the day, scheduled to make nine speeches before closing the primary campaign tonight.
 By voting for Presidential candi- dates tomorrow, Republican voters in Ohio will have what is the nearest approach to a Presidential preference election. However:. both Taft and Roosevelt today based their only doubts as to the outcome on the con- blind ballot" The name of neither candidate will appear on the ballot and unless the voter is sure of his delegates he may vote for another than his choice for President.
 On the ballot appear the names of Governor Judson Harmon Of Ohio, and of Woodrow Wilson, Governor Of New Jersey.
 Governor Wilson has not personally worked in Ohio for his endorsement. He made few speeches six weeks ago. Since then Bryan has toured the State, speaking in. almost every Con- gressional district in support of the New Jersey executive. Bryan held up Harmon as the choice of J. P. Mor gan, James J. Hill and the interests represented in Wall street
