Judge Jackson Takes Excep-
tons to Hodges Platform.
Calls 1t Republican Platform
of Democratic Candidate
|E WILL KEEP MOVING
Has Started on an Active Cam
paign of State.
Governor Stubs Will Make
Speeches in Ohio.

Judge A. NJ jackson, of Winfield, a
Clark Democrat, who is a candidate for
governor, does not look with favor upon
what he designates as the Republican
platform of a Democratic candidate Tor
governor
Judge Jackson had in mind the plat
form of Senator Hodges of Olathe. The
judge rises to politely and sarcastically
inquire of bis Democratic opponent for
the nomination why he has embodied
the props and planks of the Stubs adj
ministration in his platform. The judge
likes the good old Democratic doc
trineS of government and economy,
himself, and he cannot see the point to
building Democratic and Republican
platforms just alike.
Judge Jackson will make an active
speaking canvass of the state between
now and August. he has date tn
May % at Larned to speak before the
Kansas Development association and
another at Lyons N Rice county to
speak on Decoration Day.
The judge declared that the appro-
baton of certain Republican papers of
Senator Hodges principles would be a
great help to him (the judge) in his
campaign for the gubernatoria nomin-
alton.
Governor Stubs will leave next week
for Ohio to take part in the Roosevelt
campaign for the Buckeye state Henry
Allen will also likely go to Ohio and
make Roosevelt speeches. This means
that the governor will put off the OPP
ening of his senatorial campaign until
after the Ohio campaign. The governor
had postponed the announcement of his
own candidacy until the Kansas presi-
Dental campaign had ended, and now
he will wait another week.
1. M. Mahin. the Smith Center at.
torney, has announced as a candidate
for state senator for the district COM
posed of Smith,, Phillips and Norton
counties to succeed Senator ]. T. Reed
who has moved to California. Mahin
is a progressive and it is stated by his
northwest Kansas friends that he will
be a strong candidate.
P. E. Laughlin, of Marysville has
announced his candidacy for the Demo-
cratic nomination for state treasurer.
He is cashier. of the Citizens State
bank of his town and was formerly
secretary of group one of the Kansas
Bankers association. He is a young
man only SO years of age but he has
been active and successful in the bank
ing business for several years.

NnhndY Will Pay

There is a Gilbertian touch about problem which is confronting the Dub
 lin Insurance committee. 1t appears that Sir Charles Cameron, who is the medical officer of Dublin, recommend
 cd that one of the patients at the sani- torium should get a smoke. He sener- ously offered to pay for the tobacco, but the committee would not allow him to do so, and ordered that the smoke should be paid for by the state. The patient got few puffs. Fourteen days afterwards, the insurance commission CTS for Ireland sent d letter to the com- mittee requiring 10 know from what fund they proposed to pay for the to- bacco. Their reply was that Sir Charles Cameron had recomm ended 1t as use
 ful drug which would be found in all pharmacopias under the head of "Nico
 tina Tabacum," and that, therefore they proposed to discharge it out of the fund provided for drugs. The insurance com
 missioners thereupon took the opinion of certain eminent kings counsel, and after a further lapse of three weeks. they wrote to say that they could find no statutory authority enabling the in surance committee to spend the money. The Dublin body, however, insisted that they were fortified with the opinion of their medical adviser that the drug was necessary for the effective treatment of the patient, and that it should be given, even at the risk of a surcharge. And there the matter stands at present.

THIS BABY IS AN ATHLETE Six Months Old Girl Can Swing
 From Bar 3 Minutes

From the Chicago Examiner.
 The 6-nonth-old baby of Mir. and Mrs. R. H. Heath of St. Louis is an athlete. The .baby's name is Cora Marie.
 Though she is not old enough to- walk, Cora Marie has such strength in her hands that she can hold to a horizontal bar, keeping her body suspended in the air for three minutes
 Her parents discovered that she could do this trick through the tenacity with which she held to any object with which she was playing.
 Several days ago the parents read of 2-year-old child that could do tricks on horizontal bar. Mrs. Heath was sure their baby could do such tricks. She got toy broom and offered 1t to the baby so that it's hands would catch t}se han dle of the broom at the center.
 Then Mrs. eHath took one end of the broom and MT. Heath took the other The baby's hands frightened on the handle until the tips of Ter ,finyers were white MT. and Mrs. Heath lifted and up came the baby out of it's cradle, hanging to the broom
 Dr.. H. J. Foster, the Heath family phy- sician says the Infant is the best formed child he has ever seen.

PROSPERITY MUST
 PAY COST OF WAR
From the San Francisco Bulletin.

From the San Francisco Bulletin.
 In these days of war and rumors of war it is encouraging to note that the advo- cates of international peace are pressing their campaign for harmony just as though nothing had happened. For in stance, David Starr Jordan Is still pre- senting his appalling figures of the cost of armed conflict. In recent address in Kansas City he had some interesting things to say about the awful price which this nation paid for the noble achievement of freeing negro slaves.
 Tt cost us 65OOo0 lives of young men to get rid of slavery" he said. "I saw not long ago in Maryland 30 acres of those young men, There are some 12 900 acres filled with them on the fields of the south And this number was the best the nation could bring. The gaps they left were filled, to all appearances, but a new na- ton has grown up of men and women born since the war. The men that died in the weary time had better stuff in them than the father of the average man , of today"
 Whether one agrees or disagrees with the conclusions of pr. Jordan, it is cer- tain that most of the victims of war come from the rank of the strong and the pa triotic. The best that the land has to of fer answers the call to arms, and when fever and pallets have done their worst the victor is far poorer than before. Wise old Benjamin Franklin put the truth In n nutshell when he said
 "Wars are not paid for in war times. The bill comes later.'
 The exhausting campaigns of the great Napoleon made France an easy victim for Germany in the conflict which came 55 years after Waterloo. Peace not war, makes nations powerful. "Japans terri ble strength in the war with Russia says pr. Jordan, was not due to con stant practice in warfare, but rather to centuries of peace wherein the race had grown strong through a struggle for ex- istence, which had eliminated the weak instead of the strong and courageous"
 Snch is the lesson of history. In time all the nations of the world will learn that lesson. and when they do war between civilized people will cease. Dr. Jordan be- lieves that the inevitable triumph of in telligence is near at hand. for at the mo- ment when rnanv countries seem on the ver@e of copfict he says:
 "Whatever the noise and hluster and ap- barrett provocation. there will never be arotrer great war in Europe The game Is played ont

Preserving Country Lanes

Paul D. Cravath in Country Life in Amer
 ica.
 About a year ago a few gentlemen on
 the north shore of Long Island formed
 the "country lanes committee" to or
 ganize a movement to protect and devel-
 op the fast disappearing country lanes.
 They realize that the motor vehicle had
 some to stay; that the public roads, with
 few exceptions, would have to be mac
 adsmized, and that the only salvation for eqlestrians would be by developing oppor-
 turtles for riding over private prop erty.
 The region was full of open field and trccts of woodland, and there were plenty of private lanes along hedge rows, across fields and through the woods; but most of the fields and many of the forests were fenced, and the private lanes which had not been closed to the public were usually in detached sections.
 It was the aim of the country lanes com mittee to make these fields and forests
 and private lanes available for the entire community; to open up new lanes and es- tablish connections between old James, so that there would be a net work of private ways at least as complete as the network of public roads, and practically independent of them.
 At first there was a little timidity and ! holding back, but when the community realized what the success of the plan
 meant, it became eager to help it along. ! The pleasure of riding over private roads, which a year ago was confined to | the few who had large estates and their guests and to trespassers, is now open | to every member of the community who can own hire or borrow horse. In- deed, any man with a horse is as well off. so far as the opportunities for rid | ing are concerned, as if the whole north
 shore of Lond Island were his private estate.
