She may not do the things that man
May do and still enjoy esteem:
But for her sake We proudly plan.
For her We dream the golden
dream.
To her we confidently turn
For courage in our sore distress
From her and for her sake we learn
The saving grace OF gentleness.
To her We yield the splendid right
or freedom from the warriors
care,
She fills the present with delight
And sweetly makes the future fair
We make the ground on which she
stands
A sloriiied and sacred place;
We press our lips upon her hands
And are enraptured bv her grace.

National Republican Chair man After Learning From Senator Works What Was Going on in California Issues Statement
ADVICE TO VOTERS
 OF THAT STATE
Also Alludes to Situation in
 Pennsylvania Where the Roosevelt Followers Are Preparing to Claim Elec-
 tors on Republican Ticket
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIspArcHI

WASHINGTON, Aug 21-After a conference with Senator Works of Cal ifornia, regarding the political situa- ton in that state, Charles D. Hills chairman of the republican national committee, issued the following state ment:
 Governor Johnson. and his crowd are going to try to capture the title, and emblem of the republican party and place their candidates for electors on the republican ticket who will vote for candidates on the progressive tick ct. We regard this as dishonorable."
 Roosevelt has renounced his repub- licanism and has left the republican party Governor Johnson and his fol- lowers. under the election law passed this year, will make oath of their in tention to support the republican can didates while as matter of fact they intend to vote for the candidates of another party. This is downright per jury
 T think men who are known to faV- or the candidacy of Roosevelt should be challenged at every polling place in California when they tender their bal lots as republicans. All we are asking in California is justice whrc-r uugnt to satisfy Governor Johnson and anything short of this should result in a protest by the public. No republican can pre- vent the withdrawal of Governor John son. and his crowd from the republi- can party. but republicans should re sist the bold attempt of Johnson to steal the machinery of their party. and thus make it impossible to cast their votes for Taft and Sherman
 Chairman Hilles remained over in Washington today and conferred with a number of republican senators. Con ferences were held in the private room of Vice President Sherman. Hilles saw Senator Dillingham; of Vermont and the two discussed plans for closing the campaign in that state next meek. Hil- les told Dillingham; that the national committee would lend every assistance possible.
 Representative Olmstead of Penn sylvania discussed with the national chairman the legal phases of the sit uation in PennsylVania where the Roosevelt forces are claiming the cleo tors elected on the straight republican ticket. Hilles said that the action would be taken on this matter in a few days

 yer That Tobacco Trust Is Trying to Make Deadlier Cigarette Take Its Place
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHI

DENVER. Aug. 21.-Opiun. for centuries the curse of the Chinese empire. has given way before the insidious American cigarette, while in America the cigarette is leading 10 the more general use of opium, according to statements today by Professor Albert Schneider. who is in charge of the United States bureau of chemistry in San Francisco. before the American Pharmaceutical asso- ciation in annual convention here
 The activity of the tobacco trust f." as Professor Schneider designated it. both in America and Europe. he de clared was the cause. Professor Schneider asked the pharmaceutical association to take cOgnzance of his statements and bring the matter to the attention of the United States government.
 He declared that immediately fol- lowing the campaign against the use of opium in China, the tobacco trust" through it's American and Flu rcpean branches sent an army of men into the empire distributing free more than $5,00O,000 worth of cigar
 
 northern and southern districts, the European branch of the trust taking the southern district while the north ern part was handled through the American branches.
 As result of the campaign waged hy the tobacco trust" said Schneider. the boys and girls of China, many little more than able to walk without assistance, are confirmed cigarette "fiends." He said he had been told that opium is being put into the cigarettes now being sold in China.
 The association bitterly attacked the report of the surveyor of the port, McKinlay. San Francisco, who advocated a prohibitive tax on opium to prevent the spread of the opium habit and the sale of the narcotic in the United States. The association went on record as favOring stricter legislation rather than a prChibitive tax The association will not sup port the Richardson amendment tC the pure food and drugs bill now be- fore congress on the ground that the amendment defeats it's own purpose

UNCLE SAM CAUTIOUS
 ABOUT LAW SUITS
Why Naturalization Papers Were De- ned Los Angeles Applicant.
 IAssncIATEp PRESS DISPATCHl


 LOS ANGELES, Aug. 21.-Judge Willis, of the superior court, denied naturalization papers today to o. E. Finsted, a rancher and miner, because
  the court thought by so doing the United States would be involved in the controversy with Mexico. Finstead came to America in 1881 and in 1891 filed petition for admission to citi- zenship anu a few years later went to Mexico, where he took up a mining claim and became involved in a fight with a Mexican, who was killed.
 Finsted claimed it was an accident and after three years confinement was released. and returned to Los Angeles. Judge Willis explained that the de- partment of commerce and labor at Washington had advised his action, fearing that the United States might become involved with Mexico in dam age suit the applicant might bring against that republic for false imprls- onment. The court stated that the ruling was not absolute but that Fin sted might employ counsel to examine his case, and renew his application at the November sitting of the naturall- zation court.

District Attorney Whitman Makes This Charge Against "Some Members" of Police Force as to Two Gangsters at Large
S5OOO IS OFFERED FOR THEIR CAPTURE
Sam Schepps Told Grand Jury After Rosenthal Murder That Becker Said He Would Control Waldo and Head Off Whitman
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

NEW YORK, Aug Exchanging that some members" of the New York police department knowingly permitted the escape of "Gyp the Blood" and Lefty Louie" the miss ing gangsters indicted for the murder or Herman Rosenthal. District At torney Whitman tonight offered q reward of $5OOO for the capture of the fugitives.
 The prosecutor in a formal state ment said: This reward is not of fered to any member of the police department of the city of New York or anybody in the employ of the rclice department and will not be aid to any such member or any police department employe
 In taking this position I am ac- tuated by no feeling of unkindness toward the police department. but it is my belief that if proper police work had been done those men would TOW be in custody. The city of New York is paying millions of dollars annually to the police department whose duty it is to detect crime and arprehend criminals. I cannot escape the conclusion that some members of the police department have known, if they do not now know, the where about of these murderers."
 The generosity of private citizens trade 1t possible for the district at torney to offer the reward. One Of the district attorneys reasons for suspecting that the police have al lowed the two to escape was in d;cated tonight when it became known that sam Schepps in his tes- timony before the grand jury said that three detectives from New York police headquarters had recognized him while he was hiding in Falls burg. New York, and had deliberately allowed him to escape. These detec tives had been sent to that region to find him.
 Further details of Schepps' testi- mony involving Police Lieutenant Becker were learned today. On one occasion Schepps declared that Beck CT in speaking of Rosenthal said I'm glad he is out of the way He should have been killed long ago No one cares about Rosenthai, any way.
 Becker, the witness further testi- fled, told him to tell Rose then Tn hiding at Harry Pollok's house, not to give himself up
 T can control Waldo Becker said according to Schepps. No one need be afraid. Don't worry about the dis trict attorney either. 1 can prevent bim from doing anything. The dis trict attorney cannot do anything without evidence. I'll see that the DO Zee hold out the evidence"

Penrose States That Arch bold Gave $100,00O in 1904; Gift Was "Appreci- ated by Both" Former President and Cortelyou
REQUEST WAS MADE
 FOR SOME MORE
Senator Speaks of Bill Films Application to Archbold for Aid in His Aspirations for Senator ship; Offered $2,000, 900
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHJ

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21-Senator Penrose. of Pennsylvania, in the sen- ate today. replied to a letter recently published purporting to show that John D. Archbold of the Standard Oil company, had sent him s25.O00 in 1904 Penrose declared that the money was part of contribution of s225,00O made by the Standard Oil company to the presidential campaign.
 Penrose said that s125,000 was sent him chairman of the state com- mittee, and sI0O,00O direct to c. N. Bliss, the nationa treasurer.
 Penrose decared that Bliss made an effort to secure another s150,000 from the Standard. and represented that Roosevelt had been advised of the original contribution as had the chair man of the national committee, MT. Corteiyou, and that the contribution was appreciated by both" Penrose declared that Archbold was willing to make an additional contribution but was overruled by his associates.
 Continuing, Penrose said the state ment that there was any connection between the state industrial commits sion and certain check from Arch bold was false and malicious He then read copy of a telegram al- legged to have been sent to Archbold in 1904 by w. D. Finn, now the Roosevelt leader in Pennsylvania in which Finn is represented to have sought for Archbold's aid at the time in an effort to succeed the late Sem ator M. s. Quay in the senate. Upon the death of Quay in 1904" said Penrose, Film became candi- date to succeed him. In Philadelphia, during the discussion of the success sorship. Finn offered Israel w. Dur ham, the republican leader, and to myself one million or even two million dollars to favor him and this offer was known to others at the time. The offer was declined and we did not support him.

FLlNN'S REPLY.
No Discussion of Penrose's Charqe
 But Formal Statement.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 21-Former state Senator William Finn, the recos- nizer leader of the Roosevelt forces in this state, refused tonight to discuss the charges made in the senate today by Senator Penrose except in a formal statement which he gave out through the North American. The statement follows: Newspaper reports of Sena- tor Penroses confession of faith other things have been read to me and in it he makes two references to my alleged efforts to obtain appointment to the United States senate as successor to Senator Quay.
 First, as I understand it, he alleges that I sought the support of John D. Archbold for the appointment and quotes what purports to be an ex- change of telegrams between Archbold and myself on the subject. When the senatorial vacancy occurred in 1904 practically the solid republican delega- tion in the assembly from Allegheny county and large majority from western Pennsylvania favored my elec- tion to succeed Quay. Penrose was in favor of Oliver. He was not allowed to name his man for the appointment and Knox was decided upon at a con- ference held at the offices of the Penn sylvania railroad in Philadelphia by President A. J. Cassatt. Henry Clay | Prick and Ex-Senator Don Cameron, the latter two representing corpora 1 tions in this state and New York l Second. Penrose alleges that off, i cred a million or two million dollars to 1 him and Israel w. Durham--the latter now being dead and unable to testify l to favor my appointment to the senate. Taken in connection with my purport- 1 ed telegram to Archhold. Penrose's all l legation 1isproves itself from several 1 angles
 First-If Penrose could have sold the senatorship for such a sum with his record as corruptionist of which there is sufficient evidence, he would have taken the money and delivered the goods. Second-The appointment by Knox at the dictation of Archbold, l Prick. Cameron and Cassatt proves that Penrose did not have the senator ship in his hands to dispose of. Third ! Every allegation that I solicited Arch hold's support and requested the Stand ard Oil chief to give orders to his man Penrose in my behalf indicates that I was wise enough to know how Penrose could be controlled without the neceS- sity of buying him.
 As a matter of fact I never asked either Penrose or Durham to support me for senator and never discussed the matter with them. These men were my personal and political enemies with
