Oklahoma and Texas to Be
Prosperous Next Year.
FAITH in KANSAS
E. I'll. Hartman Saw Splendid
Future, Holland Says.
South Has Built Many Miles of
Railroads.

New York, Jan. 2=Some of the
ablest business and banking authori-
ties of the United States are now turn
ing their eyes with prophetic vision
toward the south and southwest, ex-
pect1ng that in those sections of the
country there will be the highest rela-
tive and possibly absolute Industrial
and commercial activity enjoyed by the
United States in the year 1912 And
if their predictions are verified there
will surely follow indirect or reflex in
f1uences of a most beneficial kind upon
all industry and much of the agricul-
ture of the United States.
By the southwest they include in a
general way all of that part of the
country beginning with the eastern
boundary of Kansas and including that
state, Oklahoma, northern and west
ern Texas, New Mexico and Arizona
This is the southwest of which the late
E. H. Hartman so often spoke in
terms implying greater enthusiasm,
even, and a larger expectation than
were characteristic of his views re-
specting the great mid-zone which the
main line of the Union and Southern
Pacific railroads bisects.
Hartman for Kansas.
Mr.. Hartman often spoke of the
great southwest as a veritable empire.
He was confident that with its high
development, with sufficient transpor-
tation, with intelligent agriculture, that
region would ultimately be found to
be a producer of wealth both relative
ly and absolutely greater than the
production of any other part of the
country. Mr.. Hartman saw a great
future for Kansas, and if he were liv-
ing he would rejoice over the recent
reports from that state which tell of
the per capita wealth of it's inhabitants,
wealth these citizens have themselves
produced The enthusiasm and expec-
tation with which Mr.. Hartman often
spoke of the southwest have always
been shared by Mr.. B. F. YoakuIn.
who sometimes speaks as though he
felt that in other parts of the coun-
try. especially the thickly- settled and
highly developed regions east of the
Alleehanv mountains, there is as yet
little understanding of what the
wealth creating capacity of the great
southwest is and how large a part the
production of that wealth will play in
the general prosperity of the country.

new PENSION BILL
Senate Apparently Is Opposed to the
Sherwood Measure.

Washington, Jan. 2.-The senate pen
sion committee will not attempt to
amend the Sherwood pension bill which
was passed in the house. An entirely
new bill will be reported and Senator
McCumber probably will offer it as an
amendment to the McCumber law Of
1907. which recognizes the age of So
years as total disability and makes GER
tain recognition of veterans entitled to
it's benefits.
The senate committees experts have
compiled figures from the treasury de-
partment and the pension bureau to
show that the Sherwood bill would IN
crease the present rolls 66 per cent. The
senate bill would carry an annual ex-
penditure of not more than $4,000. 900.
A poll of the senate on the Sherwood
bill is said to show not more than 10
Democrats and about II Republicans
ready to vote for it.

Two Other Men Found Lying
Fatally Wounded.

New York, Jan. "A gray automo-
bile rolled up the Bowery at a snails
pace early today and came almost to a

To the Presidential Candidacy
of Senator LaFOllette.
ON PLEA OF HARMONY
Resolution Favoring His Aspira-
tiOns Is Defeated 81 to 80.
Plainly Declares Its Opposition
to President Taft.

Columbus, O., Jan. 2.-Progressive
Republicans of Ohio yesterday, form
ed a permanent organization, adopted
a declaration of progressive principles.
but voted 50 to 80 not to give their en-
dorsement to United States Senator
Robert NJ LaFollette as candidate
for the presidential nomination.
After refusing the endorsement of the
league, the delegates voted 81 to II in
favor of a resolution as a personal ex-
preston of the delegates naming Sena-
tor LaFollette as the living embodi-
ment of the principles of the progress
sive movement and the logical cand1-
date to carry them to successful frul-
tion.
The vote came after three hours de-
bate on the floor of the convention and
was on the adoption of an amendment
to the report of the resolutions commit
tee, which had been unanimously in
favor of not naming a candidate.
Clifford PinchOt, who declared that he
spoke only for himself, and in no way
for Colonel Roosevelt, and former Sec
retary of the Interior Garfield, were the
leaders in the debate against giving any
candidate an endorsement. Senator
Works, of California, and later Senator
Clapp of Minnesota, were vigorous III
urging that the Ohio progressiveS con-
centrate their efforts in working for the
election of Senator LaFollette. Nearly
every delegate expressed himself re-
peatedly in the debate.
The vote was taken Immediately after
an appeal by Common Pleas Judge R.
NJ. Wanamaker, of Akron, who declared
he made the first anti-Taft speech in
the state, and who appealed to the 6el-
egates not to go into the presidential
campaign by going against the advice
of such leaders of the National Pro-
gressive league as Pinchot and Walter
Houser, secretary of the National
league, and manager of the LaFollette
campaign.

and which had been submitted to the
resolutions committee by Pinchot,

Washington, Jan. 2.-The chances
of Judge Hooks appointment to the

Viewing with alarm the protests
from governors and others of four
great states. Kentucky. Nebraska,
Iowa and Minnesota, as we'll as from
a number of senators and representa-
tlveS in congress against the selection
of Hook, the president has decided to
turn from Panama of Attorney Cen
eral Wickersham. After being re-
ceived personally by the president the
protests will be closely scrutinized by
the attorney general.
The main object in the minds of
those Immediately around the presi-
dent is that having delivered an opin-
ion favorable to the railroads in the
Minnesota case, which is now before
the supreme court for review. Judge
Hook would not If appointed, be eligi-
