Committee Can't Agree on Division of Plunas
TROUBLE AT PIE COUNTER

The pestiferous question of Federal
patronage pie will not down in Geor-
gia.
Senators and mere congressman long
ago threw UP their hands and wished
they never had been born so heavy
has been the avalanche of applications
for jobs precipitated upon them.
But right here in Atlanta, some six
weeks ago, was formed a close commit
tee on Federal patronage
1t consisted-and still consists, al
though split into various factions-of
a round dozen faithful and true Will
sonites. noble twelve, they are, who
fit bled and died" for the New Jer-

mittee set for itself the task of divid-
Ing the forthcoming Federal pie, and
passing it out in such wise as it should
go.
The committee consists of-but not
yet has come the precise time for the
naming of names!
Six Weeks of Futile Labor
Suffice 1t to say that the committee
has been Communicating busily since it
organized itself, commissioned itself,
and went to work, as aforesaid, some
six weeks ago
1t was discovered, soon after the
committee was organized that divers
and sundry committeeman had their
individual eyes on large. fat, juicy,
plumpy plums, and that they intended,
first thing of all, to commit the COM
mittee to their right and title to the
same, before proceeding to the division
among the smaller and less favored
fry.
On the committee, however, are three
who sWore by the great horn spoon that
they wanted nothing themselves, and
that they thought it all wrong for the
majority of the committee to swipe the
choices slices of pie in sight for its
own use, right off the bat, so to speak!

throughout the committee, and it may
be necessary eventually to put the en-

BREAK UP PETTY CRIME
There is sadness today among
piekpockets and chronic offend
ers of every character in Chicago
as, a result Of new plan of pro-
cedure by the municipal court,
whereby associate judges will
hear the cases brought before
them in which jury trials are de-
nanded.
Heretofore, when a jury trial
was asked for, the case went be-
fore some judge in the city hall,
who had never sat in the district
in which the man on trial oper-
ated. Convictions were difficult
under these circumstances.
Under the new plan,, judges
will sit in the city hall in the af-
ternoon, trying the cases in which
jury hearings were asked for
when the case was first called be-
fore them.
Pickpockets prohted under the
old system. All of them took
jury trials, and invariably beat
the cases before judges who did
not kno wtheir records.
1--WE won't have any jury trials
in week" said Judge Better, of
Clark street court, this morning.
ALREADY some regulars who ask
for jury trials agreed to be tried
here, when they found they would
have to appear before me anyhow.

public of China, and Miss Wing J..

The plot of the Chinese drama deals
with the mysterious death of the late
Emperor and Empress Dowager, which
occurred within three days of each
other in 1908; the dismissal of Yuen
Shi-Kai from office, the corruption of
the court under the prince regent, the
recall of Yuan Shi-Kai, the abdication
of the baby Emperor and the estab-
lishment of the new republic. 1t is
said that the court scenes will be pre-

of high officials of former days and

ABSTRACT OF
THE UNITED STATES

That more than Is million persons
in the United States will record their
votes for President in the campaign of
the present year is evident from the
official statistics of presidential vote
published in the Statistical Abstract
Of the United States, which has Just
been issued by the Bureau of Stats
tics, Department of Commerce and
Labor. Prior to 1888 no government
official record of the votes cast for
President existed, but an Act passed
by Congress on February 8, 1887, made
it the duty of the Executive of each
state to report 70 the Secretary of
State the nam III electors and the
number Of votes given or cast for each
person voted for, and these repo"ts,
made to the Secretary of State in
1888 and in each subsequent presiden-
tial election, form the basis of the
official record of presidential elections
in the United States. This record,
which has been published for several
years in the Statistical Abstract of the
United States, suggests that the total
number Of votes cast in the presiden-
tial election of this year will for the
first time exceed Is millions. The
total number in 1908 was 1887, 900:
in 1900 13,965,0O0; in 1892, 1904, 900,
and in 1888, 1881 ,000 Dividing the
vote thus officially recorded into the
population named by official counts or
estimates for the years in question,
this shows the average population for
each vote cast, as follows: In 1908
1913 persons for each vote cast; in
1904, $40; in 1900, 5.44; in 1896, $40;
In 1892, $40; and in 1888, 5.27. The
!, statements published in the Abstract,
| show the vote cast in each state for
the various candidates in each presi.
| Dental election from 1888 to 1908, and
the electoral vote by principal politi
cal parties, state by state, during the
same period.
The above statement. showing the
official record of presidential cleo.
Ifions during the last quarter Of a cen
fury, illustrates the variety of interest
| ing and official information presented
by the Statistical Abstract issued an
nually by the Department OF Com
merce and Labor through its Bureau
