BELIEVES CHANCES GOOD
For Success of Democrats--Says Repub-
licans Fail to Rectify Wrongs-In Chi
cago He Sets Forth Some of
His Policies.

Chicago, Feb. Ex-Governor Woodrow
Wilson Of New Jersey fired the opening
gun in his campaign for the Democratic
presidential nomination in Illinois in an
address delivered yesterday before the
Iroquois club by reiterating his belief
in the Initiative and referendum and
predicting Democratic victory at the
polls in November. He arrived in Chi
cago from Kentucky early in the day
and during the morning met hundreds Of
Chicago business men and Democratic
leaders from different parts of Illinois.
Six hundred citizens attended the Lin
coin birthday luncheon at which Govern
or Wilson was the guest of honor.
II believe in the initiative and ref
erendum because they will give the peo
pie real representative government" said
Governor Wilson. "They are state and
local questions and are designed to give
the people the power in localities where

whenever it is necessary. | have never
favored the recall OF judges, because
they are not administrative officers OF
the government. They simply interpret
and enforce the law. To urge the recall
of judges is to treat a symptom, rather
than the disease. My idea is to abolish
the laws that make it possible for spe-
cial interests to control the judiciary.
Sound business need have no fear of pro-
gressiye government. 1t is only the bust

that is in danger.

the people are more interested in prin-

me how like practical politics and tell
them that | like it first rate. The ex-
perience is not new to me. Anybody
who fights for reform is certain TO have
brickbats thrown at him. In politics the
brickbats are often invisible and cannot
be lodged"

MAN AND BABY DIE IN
POISON CANDY PLOT
Sweets Are Placed at Door Of Mime
apolis Home; Third Victim
Dying.

Minneapolis, MIMI, Feb. Victims
of a poisoned candy plot--3- year old
Bonnet Reedy and Simon O'Malley, 80
years old. hackman-are dead from
eating arsenic in sweets placed at the
door Of the 0Malley home, in this city,
Sunday night. Louis Spencer, who also
ate of the candy, is dying, while Clara
Crates. who also tasted the sweets, is
unframed.
The death of the little child and the
mar occurred while the mother of the
baby was downtown buying the child
pair of shoes. On the memory of
a girl clerk in drug store, which Is
believed to be the only place in Minne-
apolis which sold candy of the brand
that was used in the murder, depends
the chance Of the police to capture the
poisoner. To-day she will look at per-
sons whom the police will show her in
an effort to identity the purchaser of
the candy Many theories are advanced
by the police, for motive, but none
of them has led the detectives any near
er to a solution of the mystery.

Wickersham Tells What the Department
of Justice Did Last Year.


New York, Feb l3.-Two thousand
persons from various sections of West.
chester county and Manhattan listened
to an address which George w. Wick
ersham, attorney general of the United
States, delivered Sunday afternoon un-
der the auspices Of the New Rochelle
Peoples forum, during which he praised
the Taft administration and told of the
prosecutions of illegal combinations. His
subject was THE Administration of Fed
eral Justice" Mr.. Wickersham declared
that during the year 1911 his depart
ment had completed 1902 criminal
prosecutions.
$50 long rs men believe said Mr..
Wiekersham. "either that they can vio-
late the law without detection or that
they can escape the penalty of such vio-
lation, they will only obey the law so
far as it seems TO be to their advantage;
and where the penalty for violation of
tine law is by fine merely, they will
obey it only if the fine is larger than
the profit to be realized by violating it,
and where there is a reasonable GER
tainty that they will be compelled to
pay the fine"
After reviewing in detail the various
kinds of prosecutions for violations of
the federal laws with which his depart.
ment had been concerned, Mr.. Wicker
sham said: Without rejecting upon any
other. / may say that, under the pres
ent administration, the effort of the de-
partment of justice has been carefully
and impartially to investigate all com
plants of violation Of the federal stat
utes. which have been brought to its
attention. A small force of competent
Investigators, selected entirely of merit
and without regard TO political influ
ence, has been engaged in the work of
investigation and detection of crime.
This force numbers about one hundred
men-nearly half of whom are lawyers,
some twenty expert accountants. and
the remainder keen. alert, intelligent OBJ
servers. To the thoroughness of in
vcstigation which is carried on by these
men before a prosecution Is instituted.
is greatly due the large proportion Of
convictions resulting from prosecution.
"Thms. of the 1902 criminal prosecu-
tions terminated during the fiscal year
1911. 1856 resulted in conviction. 4.43g
in pleas of guilty, and 3.6l5 were dis
missed by the government for one rea-
son or another"

PuImotor Restores Vitality in a
Victim Of Gas
WAS GIVEN UP AS DEAD
Pump Oxygen Into Lungs-This Simple
German Device Is Likely to
Prove Great Saver of
Life.

Chicago, Feb, l3.-Again Sunday doc
tors performed the marvellous opera
ton of recalling the apparently dead t.
life. This time the apparatus used
was the pulmotor.
David Haas was asphyxiated by il
Eliminating gas in his room. For more
than three hours friends worked oyel
him. They failed to restore respiration
and Haas was given up as dead.
DR.. j. Lewis was called in and sent
for pulmotor. In another three hours
Haas was able to sit up and express
his wonder and his thanks. He was
completely restored not only to life, but
to health. He felt no i'll effects at all
he said.
DR.. Lewis said; Speaking medically,
Haas was in state of death when the
machine arrived. He was certainly be
yond all other aid.
Those who witnessed the amazing
operation We're utterly awed as they saw
the spirit of life forced to return.
That this simple apparatus has given
man new control over life and death
the doctors are certain. Haas is the
fifth who has been called back Fiji
teen others who would have died have
beer saved
The pulmotor is German device The
one used here. is owned by the Com
n1onwea IL H. Edison company IT consists
simply of tank holding oxygen UNI
der pressure of 5000 pounds to the
square inch, with pump and valve
for reducing the pressure TO two pounds
to the square inch. The oxygen is
pumped into the lungs direct through
an apparatus invented by DIR. Harry NJ.
Richter of the Northwestern university
medical school,
When. no pulmotor can be obtained
an ordinary electric vacuum cleaner can
be used. But this pumps only air into
the lungs instead of oxygen.

A small ornamental cupboard was
straightway built in an alcove at one
side of the CRATE, whore the contents
stored therein would keep dry and free
from mold, and the young people began
to vie with one another in collecting
aromatic materials for giving the final
touch OF fascination when gathered
about the glowing Goals at night, Not
only the dried lemon and orange peels,
but the shavings from pineapples and
apple parings were all dried and stored
in this quaint perfume closet.
Finally the youngsters began to en-

followed, to ascertain the various trees
whose leaves and branches produce Pc

in small particles on glowing Goals. The
shells OF nuts were saved to produce
bright blaze and cheerful crackles, and

Shall We Refuse to Listen?

Shall We Refuse to Listen?
In the January, 1912, number of
The Mothers Magazine there is an
article entitled Refuse to Listen" 1"

their children were brought to them

thize with the feeling displayed but
believe such course would work
harm to the child.
A mother cannot safely take it for
granted that her children are models
of behavior when away from home,
and a mother who is afraid to hear
any remarks about them is in dam
ger of having children who will not
be very welcome visitors at the
neighbors'.
should very much dislike to
carry such complaint to a mother
and believe if parents keep a care
full watch over their children it will
be seldom necessary | should also
be deeply panied to have report
brought me of the misconduct of a
child of mine, but if it were true,
and l was in ignorance of it, would it
not be real kindness to let me know
it?
Far better be panied by the knowl-
edge in the beginning of the wrong
and while it could be more easily
corrected, than that it should go on
until all the neighbors were familiar
with the wrongdoing of my child

Washington, Dec. 23.-How Amer
lean citizens will profit by the in
auguration of the parcels post was
set forth in an interview with the
United Press here today by Senator
Jonathan Bourne, Jr., of Oregon, to
whose efforts the passage of the law
is largely due. He said:
The parcels post adds 100000
miles of new transportation facilities
to the United States in its applica-
ton to rural routes, the comfort of
citizens will be increased, and the
cost of living to 20,OOO,OOO people
served by rural routes reduced.
The ability of the farmer to send
II pounds of farm products over his
rural route for Is cents should be
an incentive for increased produc-
ton. The parcels post affords a me-
dunn of transportation between pro-
ducer and consumer at a less cost
than the individuals themselves
could furnish, and will result in mu-
tual benefit to all the people within
the scope of its activity.
