Keller Admits 'Machine."

Mr.. Keller admitted that the pres
ent commissioners lave a machine.
1.-TWO years ago they beat me for
clerk of the Senate" he said "but J
bear them no grudge, and ! believe
the prisons should be taken out Of
politics. / believe either Of the
plans I propose will accomplish it."
BY vote of fifty to thirty-two.
the House voted down the Keller
amendment to the original bill, to
keep Commissioners Brown and Nc
Cutcheon in office two years.
The determination was reached at
a conference of about thirty House
Democrats. held late Monday night at
the Capital Hotel, to cut out the BIZ
partisan feature.
The House members have con-
cluded that the Senate was wrong Ii:
attaching an amendment to the BIZ
partisan bill so that all of the pres
emf olIiceholders shall retain their
posts for period Of four years.
They are recalling that the present
Prison Commission worked industri-
ously in the Senate for several weeks
to defeat any legislation, and the In
timation is broadly made that in the
amendment, some of the Senate men,
bers have token care Of their friends
in good positions.

DAVID LUBIN, BUILDER


David Lubin is builder. Individually
and socially, his work has been con-
structive.
First, he built for himself. Forty
years ago he was a poor immigrant.
His first business venture was peddling
in the mining camps of Colorado, Ari-
zona and California. Later, he helped
to establish the great mercantile house
of Weinstock & Lubin in Sacramento.
There he made fortune, and learned,
also, the advantage Of buying for cash,
direct from the manufacturers.
Then he became a volunteer in the
service of the public. He organized the
earlieat of the cooperative marketing
associations that have put profit into
fruit growing in California and Colora-
do. In his brain the idea of an interna-
tional institute of agriculture first took
shape. He secured the support Of the
king Of Italy. The result is world
wide crop-reporting service that prom
ises to remove tho worst of the evils in
grain gambling.
Now, in working for the adoption in
this country Of the rural cooperative
banking systems Of Europe he is trying
to put into the hands of American farm
ers the most efficient of all instruments
for agricultural development. Through
their cooperative associations the farm
ers Of Germany are able to borrow at a
rate lower than is paid by great corpo-
rations.
Buying for cash, with money bor-
rowed at or s per cent, the farmer can
sometimes save 100 per cent on prices
he has to pay when retail merchants
carry him on their books for months at
time.
Congress now has under consideration
the appointment Of q commission to in
vestigate and report on the cooperative
banking associations Of Europe. Mr..
Lubin has called a conference to discuss
the matter, and Governor Shafroth has
appointed DR.. Lory and Senator Am
monsNas delegates to attend the confer
ence.
The movement has been given fresh
impetus in the last few months. It
promises the most fruitful Of David Luz
bins undertakings. If successful, it
will establish the credit Of American
farmers on a much frmer basis, and
well-establiehed credit 10 equivalent to
industrial independence. And by re-
ducing the cost Of production it may be
expected to make percepible dent in
the cost Of living. Denver Times.
The Keota news., 1912-04-05

Humphry Ward lays claim to the mantle
of George Elliot, and tries not to show
what an awfllly loose fit it is for her.
While not perhaps destined to become
a classic or an immortal, the man who
called himself o. Henry is well acclaimed
a. one of the cleverest short story writers
Of our day. Comes now one Of our
widely circulated monthly magazines. pro-
claiming as o. Henry's literary successor
one Gouverneur Morris-whose stories
are Of course published exclusively in said
magazine.
The mystery in this puff lies in the
utter incongruity of the comparison. The
most labored search fails to disclose any
points Of resemblance, further than this.
They are-were-both writers of short
stories: These stories find places in mag
azines. You are presumed to purchase
the magazines in order to read the stories.
On this basis Of likeness, one might hail
Zona Gale as the literary twin sister Of
Jack London.
As matter of fact, the newer writer
exhibits his most glaring weaknesses where
o. Henry's touch was most firm. AT
times he seems to remember the mantle in
which his publishers have draped him.
and strives after an imitation Of O. Hen
ry's style. Here he succeeds in what he
attempts-an imitation.
The difference between the two is
quite aptly illustrated by their very names.
The pen name o. Henry j. simplicity
itself. There is some oddity about it,
but no trace of afectation. 80. Henry"
might grace the sign of grocery or a
barber shop without inviting special COM
men,. But can you imagine the other
renouncing tho redundant us in that high
sounding Gouverneurl &c. Washington"
might so write his name, but "G. Nor
ris'' never!
If that very name doesn't picture to
you the velvet robes and pearl collars of
the Laura Jean Libbey type of heroine.
moving about in the slush and gush Of the
Robert Chambers type Of love story
well. reading one Of his stories will give
you the picture. fast enough. Gouver-
neur Morris has the snobbishness and the
sex obsession of these two writers in ac-
tive form-the two faults from which o.
Henry was most absolutely free.
Gouverneur Morris would hesitate
to shear him of the full glory Of that
name-writes Of the vital facts Of life
with the unhealthy and furtive curiosity
Of the small mind. o. Henry touched
upon them with the calm, sane view of
the philosopher and the sympathetic vision
of fellow-man. Gouverneuer Morris
takes apparently normal human beings and
writes Of them in a way TO make even the
readers of Chambers novels blush. o.
Henry could take people of the under
world and show in their sordid lives
something to quicken the impulse Of fel-
lowship in the readers heart. In "Past
One at Rooney's," for example. not one
of the characters has even the remotest
hint Of respectability. Yet, as he puts it
Il quote from memory-"on the most
wi,hered dead branch Of the tree Of life,
a little pale orchid blooms" And we
are the richer for having watched its blos-
soming.
Every line Of Gouverneur Morris sto-
ries breathes the distinction between rich
and poor. Society and wealth are the
most potent facts in his universe. O.

NINE BOYS HOME AFTER
LONG AUTOMOBILER RIDE
Machine Covered With Pen
nants of Cities Visited.

Nine boys from the Frank II. SOM
nier Athletic Club and the Jenkinson
Dramatic Club returned home yes
terday after an automobile trip to
washington, ID. c. The boys left a
week ago today. The machine was
covered with vari-colored pennants
Of, the different cities they had passed
through On the trip.
Upon their arrival home the boys
Immediately called upon Playground
Commissioner Louis V. Aronson and
reported to him hat they had had
a most enjoyable, al well as a most
instructive, trip. The trip was made
with stops at New Brunswick and
Trenton. Three days were spent in
Washington and W~ashington's tomb
In Mount Vernon was also visited.
The return trip was made through
Delaware. Part of the expenses for
the trip were betrayed by an enter
tainment given last April and part
through the generosity of former
Sheriff Frank II. Sommer and an
other friend.
