CONTESTS IN BROOKLYN.
Roosevelt May Get One Delegate
Democratic Fights Not Over Delegates.


The primaries in Brooklyn will be en-
livened by several hot contests in tho
Republican and Democratic camps, and
in addition by few scraps in the lnde-
pendence League ranks. There are Re-
publican contests in eight Assembly dis
tricts, but the Presidential question cuts
but small figure in them because the con-
tests are to be mostly in the Assembly
districts making up the Ninth Congress

The Presidential question is in one way
involved in the Democratic fights. but In
all OF them that OF the continuance OF the
regime of John II. McCooey as county
Leader cuts a more or less important

IN view Of the situation, has distributed

regular or the contesting cand idate who
has pledged his support: The most
stubborn fight is in the Ninth district.
where Doyle is trying to recapture the
leadership from Wogan. one Of the nine
district leaders in the revolt against
McCooey. The autonomy committee Of
one hundred anf fifty, composed of in
fiuential Democrats who are not actively
identified with the organization. has taken
sides with the nti-McCooeyites in the
pre.iminory hostilities and has indorsed
all OF the candidates who have de-
clared against his leadership. Sundry
proclamations have been hurled against
him. alleging mismanagement OF the
party since he succeeded the late
Senator McCarren and subserviency to
Murphy and Tammany. There is not
much expectation. however. that the re-
suit in to-day's contest will accomplish
his overthrow. but whatever the result
the fight against him is to be CA pried on.
These are the regular candidates for
the Democratic State committee: Third

APRIL II IS CLEANUP DAY.
Governor Stubbs Designates That as
Time to Remove Fire Causes.

Governor Stubs has designated
April II as cleanup day in order to
prevent fires 1t will be known as
s.E,ire Prevention Day. The COVER
nor has issued a proclamation on the
subject as follows:
s'The fire waste in Kansas last year
amounted to S3,3e4.394- 1t was more
than the annual cost of all the pup
lie institutions of the state, including
the University, the Agricultural col
lege. the State Normal, all the auX1i-
iaries of these institutions, the INDUS
trial schools, the penitentiary, the re-
formatory institutions, the industrial
schools. the experiment station, the
soldiers home and the nine charlt-
able institutions under the board OF
control.
Last year the fire loss in Kansas
increased nearly three-quarters or
million dollars over the previous year
This tremendous waste is an un-
necessary expense that the people can
easily minimize by the exercise of
little thoughtful care in the way of
keeping their premises free from
combustible trash-the most fruitt al
source of costly fires.
ITO further the public effort to re-
duce this loss, I, w. r. Stubbs, gov-
ernor. do hereby designate April 17tn
as Fire Prevention day in the state
of Kansas and 1 ask every citizen AMI
public official to devote whatever
time is necessary to the work of
cleaning up streets, alleys, back yards
and Easements of public and private

When you can go to any drug store

If you believe that liquids reach the
air tubes, try to swallow a little water
