DARR0W'S COUNSEL
PUNISHED
ATTORNEY ROGERS ORDERED TO
JAIL FOR CONTEMPT AFTER
BEING FINED.

Los Angeles. Aug. 6.-Today's ses-
sion of the bribery trial of Clarence
$. Darrow came, to an abrupt and SEN
sational halt an hour before the usual
adjournment time when Judge Hutton
committed Darrow's chief COUNSEL
Earl Rogers. to Jail until tomorrow
morning at . o'clock for contempt of
court In lieu of paying fine of $50
Rogers Immediately applied to Pre-
siding Judge Wills of the superior
court for his release on writ of
habeas corpus. which was granted,
Rogers being reqlred to give 5000 bail.
lRogers' .offense was In designating
state rebuttal witness as perjurer
and upon his refusal to withdraw the
allegation, a fine of $50 was imposed
on Darrow's chief counsel
Jail Rather Than Pay.
Rogers. still defiant and reiterating
his rights, declared that he would go
to jail rather than pay the fine and
the court appended on the previous
judgment an alternative sentence of
five days I'm Jail. Upon the showing
by the defense that the defendant
could not be deprived of counsel In
the course of his trial, the sentence
was modified.

One of the more important duties of
the hair dresser of store, In the
esta hlishments where such a depart
ment exists. Is the care OF the heads
of these lay figures. The hair of the
waxen ladies Is shampooed, marcelled
and dressed on an average Of once
week throughout her life. When her
hair supply runs short. as happens
early In her existence, because hair
Is easily pulled out from its waxen
settings, false hair In the form OF
switches and puffs Is added just as
for n real. live lady. Incidentally the
supply of these models is one of the
greatest expenses of modern window
dressing. Their first cost is enor-
nous and they are not durable. The
changes in the style of figures lessons
their value each season while the re-
newing of their complexion and hair
is no small item OF expense in the
stores where they are literally used.
II Ia predicted that within few
years the place OF the waxen model
win largely be supplied by living mods

with good results. In one store In the

Progressive Party Platform
Adopted by State Convention July 20, 1912

Following Is the platform of the pro-
gressive party In Montana:
With the fullest confidence In the
rectitudc of our cause and the GER
tainty that Its principles will triumph,
willing at all times to submit direct
to the people our every claim for rec
ognitiOn and support and to abide by
the decision of the electorate without
dissent, we herewith make the fol-
lowing declaration of principles of the
new progressive party of the state of
Montana, and invite all citizens who
are in sympathy with the same to
withdraw from previous party affllia-
tions and unite with us In the re-
demption OF Montana from heretofore
existing intolerable political condi-
tions.
The constant effort OF crooked busl-
ness In unholy alliance with crooked
bosses to usurp the powers of govern
ment, through control of party ma
chinery. constitutes the greatest men
ace to real popular rule.
To Throw OF the Yoke.
Therefore. we declare as the first
the necessity OF the enactment of the
following laws:
Direct primary. direct election Of
United States senators. presidential
preference primary and corrupt prac-
tices acts. which are now definitely
before tho people of Montana through
resort to the initiative and referendum
law, to be voted upon at the coming
fall election.
We declare ourselves as bein un-
alterably In favor Of complete re-
form Of taxation laws and methods In
Montana, to the end that there shall
be fair and equal assessment of all
classes of property We believe that
under present conditions the railroads,
the Amalgamated Copper company
and other corporations are avoiding
the payment of their just proportion
Of the taxes and we pledge ourselves.
IL placed In power by the votes OF the
people, to correct this condition by re-
quiring an exact ply seal valuation of
property. with fair adjustment of
rates and taxation based thereon.
Equal assessment Will at the same
time operate to reduce the ratio of
assessment OF those citizens who. at
present. pay taxes on the basis of fair
valuations.
We favor the amendment OF the
state constitution so as to leave TO
the legislature the power to determine
the method of assessing the mines
and railroads OF the state.

THE ROOSEVELT TICKET

Former Senator Frank s. Butter worth of New Haven announces that there will be a complete Roosevelt ticket to include mot only Roosevelt electors, but candidates for state of- fcers, senators and representatives. .'
 Former Senator Butterworth has returned from a conference with the Roosevelt leaders, in Chicago. He reports the sentiment of Western Republicans largely for Roosevelt, and asserts that two of every three Republicans in Connecticut are for the ex-president.
 Those who are familiar with Re- publican sentiment as it appears in the great factories of Bridgeport will feel like assenting to the former sen- ator's views.
 It is the fact that Republican senti- ment in Connecticut is and long has been for Roosevelt.
 The effect of a full third ticket in Connecticut upon the fortunes of the regular Republican party could not but be disastrous, unless, indeed, the third ticket should consist mainly of

WOMAN'S FOLLY

This is the season when a torrid sun, shining on a country road, en- dows innumerable particles sof dust with the stings of mosquitoes. The winds blow sharply and Nature turns tanner, with the skins of humanity for raw material of her art
 This is the time when man, wise man. steps into his automobile with nothing between his face and the sun the visor shades the back of his neck
 But woman, foolish creature of the species, builds upon her counteuance a habitation of cold cream which she roofs with an ounce of powder. She wears a hat with a brim that turns widely downward, and over every thing she puts a, veil.
 The result is and must be a vindi- cation of mans superior intellect. He returns with face like the shell of overdone lobster, flayed to a frazzle. From his visage projects a nose like a lighthouse at midnight of stormy day.
 But she returns with the facial vis- age which she had in the beginning, cool and smiling. This is the reward of folly.
 Then the man resorts to cold cream, powder, broad brimmed hats and se- clusion, for he hears his friends whis- per, as he passes, Look at Jones, he drinks like a fish,

SAFE AND SANE FOURTH

(F'rom the Journal of American Med
 teal Association)
 It is gratifying to observe that more and more the constituted authorities have recognized that it is their duty to prevent the burning and the crip- bling of children and their death from lockjaw by prohibiting the sale of fireworks and like destructive agen- cies Official appreciation of this fact is evidenced by the enactment and enforcement of appropriate ordinances. Many officials have in the most salu- tary way co-operated with non-gov- ernmental agencies interested in the safe and sane Fourth. Legislation against fireworks has been restrictive or prohibitive. The latter, of course, gives the best results.
 In European countries occasions akin to our Independence Day are ,commemo orated by means of fetes and other picturesque ceremonies, quite adequately, just as heartily and with as much patriotic fervor as among us. Continental peoples have a genius for festivities, national as we'll as all oth- CT kinds. For adult patriotism, ora tory may suffice: but this is not sat isfying to the youth of the land. 1~4 the legitimate interests of boyhood and girlhood, things equally brilliant and satisfactory must be substituted for the noise, the flare and the varicolor- ed flame; and substitutes even more resplendent have been found in abund- ance. We have now methods by which the Fourth shall cease to be day of terror, and shall become in- stead one of happiness, recreation and enlightenment. Noise is now being replaced by music-the music of bands and of choruses, drilled weeks beforehand by skilled leaders, and the singing of national airs and popular songs. There are tableaux, plays, floats devised by artists, representing historic and patriotic incidents and achievements; parades in which the army and navy, the police and. fire departments, the militia, school chil- dren and industrial organizations take part: picnics with circuses and pink lemonade, peanuts, ice cream and wa termellon sufficient to satisfy the most anacondean digestion; parks and other

FIRST THINGS

Dr. Samuel C. F. Hahnemann, the founder of the homeopathic school of medicine. died sixty-nine years ago today. He was born in Saxony in 1755, and announced his new remedial sys- tenn in 1796. Expressed in simple language, his main principle was that in order to cure any disease medi- cine should be employed capable of producing a similar disease in the healthy body. Hence the motto of the homeopathists. Like cures like''
 The first member of the British Parliament admitted upon affirmation, rather than oath, was Charles Brad laugh, who took his seat thirty-two years ago today after much opposi- tion.
