preston was gained through employ
ment agencies, who are sending
thousands OF hArvesters to Kansas
telling them that harvest has COM
menced and that the farmers are
begging for help. AS a result these
men arrived broke and become
tramps. They find no work and move
on Immediately to better fields.
Recently Is men from Colorado
came here expecting to- find imme'

had to beg for their meals, sleep
In box cars and moved on as soon
as they could bum their way.
Many of the tramps seen in ADJ

for an Abileneite to be asked by one

BOTH SIDES FOR
OPEN HEARING
President Thinks Contest Over Dele
gates Public Matter.
REQUESTS PUBLIC BE ADMITTED
Deliberations Of Committee in Repub
lIean Contest Cases Will Prob
ably be Carried on In
Open Session.

Chicago, June 4.-President TAR
has written to Harry s. New, chair
man OF the subcommittee on arrange
ments for the national Republican
convention, suggesting that the meet
ings of the national committee at
which contests are heard be thrown
open to the press and the public.
The presidents letter was just re
ceiyed at the national committee head.
quarters. In 1t he suggests that MI
New take up with the committee the
matter OF open hearings; and that, II
the committee finds 1t possible, the
deliberations over the contests-2SO
of which have already been prepared
for submission carried on IN open
sessions.
This. taken in connection with the
previous request of Col. Roosevelt FOL
publicity Of the contest argument, In
dicates that the doors probably will be
thrown open, at least to newspaper
men, when the committee takes up
contested delegate cases Friday morn
ing.
Express No opinion.
Few members of the national COM
mittee have yet reached Chicago and
of those here none would express a
definite opinion as to the action OF
the committee on the matter OF public
arguments. The presidents letter
was the chief subject Of discussion at
the political headquarters.
The Southern delegates situation
was vigorously discussed by two
members of the national committee
who have reached Chicago. Henry s.
Chubb. committeeman for Florida. de-
clared it was "a reflection upon the in.
tegrity of Florida Republicans to hint
that they would not stand by theiE
instructions for President Taft.
"Florida's IL delegates are In
structed for Taft" said Mr.. Chnbb
"and they will vote for him through
thick and thin"
southerners to Organize.
Gen. Powell Clayton, committeeman
for Arkansas, said Southern commit
teemen and delegates would organize
before the convention to fight any pro
posal to reduce the representation Of
Southern states. The attempt made
four years ago, to reduce representa-
| ton to the basis of the Republican
vote cast in the Southern states
caught the Southern delegates and
committeeman unprepared, he said;
but if it be attempted again it would
be fought in the convention.

Poor Construction and DIsregard oV

Farmer.

Manhattan. Kan, May 29.-TwO
things, both avoidable, contributed 70
the death of John Costello at Hunters
Island, near this city. A cheap, poor
ly constructed, uninspected bridge was
the most important thing, and atter
that came Costello's violation OF the
state law--ignorantly or in bravado'
NO one knows Wilhelm trying to take
a heavy engine across the bridge WIN
out adding extra planking.
The bridge flooring gave way JUST
as the engine had passed over it, ana
fell backward and landed, 25 feet be-
low, with Costello underneath.
A half dozen men in Kansas nave
lost their lives exactly as Costello lost
his, in the last year or two. the
chief fault, too," said w. s. Gearhart,
state highway engineer at the Kansas
agricultural. college, LAY in the fact
that the bridge had not been IN
spected.
"This bridge was built last year. II
is a 1OO-foot steel span with long
wooden approach at the south END ana
three bents of wooden approach at the
north end. Costello's engine was go
ing south and it's front wheels were
out on the steel span about five rect
wnen the wooden stringers under the
approach sheared OF and let the en-
gine drop. The wreck was due to de-
!, fective construction, but as the failure
! was due to the shearing of the string
ers believe it might have been
avoided If the bridge had been planked
or inspected properly"
