many incendiary speeches as well as

BY military authorities. 1t Is believed
that the rebels know the dividing line
between New Mexico and the Mc'i-
can state of Sonora and that the tx-
pedition on American soil as reported
today was merely made to antagonize
the United States troops stationed
along the border to preserve neutrai-

ammunition ana the activity Of the
American soldiers in preventing snug

MEN WILL GET
SQUARE DEAL
ProgreSslves, Who Won Repub-
lican Emblem at Primaries,
Voluntarily Waive Advantage
Thus Secured.

IBy Morning Journal Special Leased Wire.
Los Angeles. Sept. 6.-Announce-
ment was made tonight by Meyer
Lissner chairman of the progressive
state central committee, that the pro-
gressives who won control OF the
state convention in Tuesdays pri-
mary, would waive their right to
nominate electors when the conven-
ton meets September 24th, and would
place the Roosevelt electors on the
ballet by petition. Under this plan,
neither the Roosevelt nor the Taft
electors will go before the people un-
der the party designation of "repub-
lican."
Chairman Lissner said tonight, be-
fore leaving for san Francisco to con-
fer with other progressive leaders.
that his party would relinquish what
ever advantage was gained on Tues
day when il won the right to the
designated republican, on the elec-
toral ballot.
I'VE will place ourselves on an even
footing with the Taft republicans,
he said. "and we want them to go on
the ballot with us by petition. When
they talk about the inpossiblity of
getting electors upon the ballot by
petition they are playing the baby
act. We are going to show them how
easily it can be done"
In Tuesdays primary, the progress
sives won more than eighty of the
100 legislative nominations contended
for, besides having fourteen out OF
twenty hold over state senators. TN
der the California law, the legislative
nominees will constitute the state con-
vention which will name candidates
for state electors.

Seeing Things at Inman.

Inman, Kan, Aug. 13.-The people of
this place who are in the habit of
boating on Lake. Inman are worked UP
over the appearance in the water OF
some water animal which resembles a
turtle larger than a washtub. Just
where the monster came from is I'M
known, but it is the judgment of the
people who have seen it several time
this year that it has been in the lake
for a number of years, but has not
been seen before because of the fact
that there was always plenty of water
in the lake. This year the water Is
very low, in fact lower than it has
been for several years, and the turtle
has been forced to the surface in con-
sequence. Persons who have been i'll
the habit of bathing in the lake have
abandoned the custom.

WEIGH YOURSELF BEFORE USING

Weigh yourself before commencing
to use Samose, the great flesh-form-
ing food. The wonderful sale on this
preparation since first introduced in
Topeka and the remarkable results
following it's use have made Geo. w.
Stansfield, druggist, 632 Kansas ave-,
Topeka, such an enthusiastic believer
in the great value of Samose that he
gives his personal guarantee to refund
the money if Samose will not make
thin people fat and restore strength
and health to those who use it,
This is a strong guarantee, but Geo.
w. Stansfield has seen so many of his
customers who a few weeks ago
looked like walking skeletons become
plump and well, through the use of
Samose that he feels he can not say
too much to induce people to try it.
This marvellous felsh-forming food
is assimilated as soon as it is taken
into the stomach makes good rich
blood, tones up the weakened system,
helps to aSsimilate the food and
makes the user plump, well and rosy.

Valuation of Hartman Lines
Will Be Completed Soon.
For Three Years Work Has
Progressed at Omaha.
NO WATER IN THE STOCK
Officials Promise That Road Is
Not Overcapitalized.
Other Items of General Interest
in Traffic World.

Omaha, Neb., Aug. 13.-The Har-
rlman railroad system has, for three
Years, been engaged upon the stupen-
dous task of taking a physical valua-
| ton of all its properties The work is
now approaching an end and very
shortly will be made public. The re-
suit Will be of interest to every citizen
of the Hartman states, which include
every state west of the Mississippi
with the exception of four along the
northern boundary.
The report, ready about the middle
of next month, will be in detail, from
the value of each particular parcel of
land in the $4,000 miles of right OF
way to the value of the cotton waste
on hand, from the total value of all
the locomotives in use the system
to the old scrap beside the railroad
tracks. Even the value of the power
which may be obtained from the de-
Velopment of a single mountain stream
located on Union Pacific property can
be learned from this report.
One purpose in making this accu-
rate valuation of the property is a de-
sire to refute the oft-repeated charge
that the railroad is tremendously
overcapitalized. Another reason is
that the managers desire to know &C
Curately just what the property is
worth.
When the task was begun no man
alive knew the actual value of the
lines of the system and the multitu-
uIHOuS dSSelS. 1OQdy the managers
are catching glimpses of what the sum
will be when the column is added up.
Years ago, when the Union Pacific
was in the hands of receiver in
Ventory of the property and a physi-
cal valuation was made, but this did
not include an infinite number of
items, so that even then there was no
accurate inventory of its value. And
since that time millions and millions
of dollars have been poured into ex-
80, TO-, IL
tracks. automatic block signals, de-
pots and equipment of every and all
kinds. But nowhere in the archives is
there a balance sheet showing just
what the Hartman property is really
worth.
While the officials are not yet MAX
ing public any portion of the forth
coming report, the statement is made
in headquarters that when the details
are made public it will be seen that
the system is not overcapitalized and
that there is no water in the stock of
the different properties.

Forpets Who Married Her.

Jewell City, Aug. 13.-An unusual
occurrence that the romantic boy and
girl never think of at the time now
confronts a pension applicant at this
place. When only Is years old, Mrs.
Andrew J. Meeker eloped and mar
ried the man of her choice, and has
never regretted the marriage.
The Civil war came and Mr.. Meeker
enlisted in the Forty-second- Missouri
Volunteer infantry. While serving his
country a son was born to him and
of course he could not be present at
the occasion. AS soon as the babe
was big enough to take good photo
Mrs. Meeker mounted a horse and
carried the babe to a photographer
and sent the picture to the soldier on
duty, it arriving safely.
Now Mrs Meeker can not remem-
Der who officiated at her marriage.
Mr.. Meeker, who was pensioner,
died at this place a few months ago.
The widow must tell who married
them before she can get a pension.
