was led by the lighting Republican
insurgents In the United States Sen
ate"
A national convention Of Progress
sive Republicans will be held next
April in Chicago, at which each state
will be asked to have representation.
The movement will be recognized
and four years fight will be begun
to purify American politics through
the medium OF the Republican party.
Mr. Spreckles said that California
would be carried for Wilson by the
aid of Republican votes. Senator
Blaine said that the same would hap
pen in Wisconsin. Frank e. Pack
ard, editor of the Bismarck, On. d.,
Times, in written report, said that
Roosevelt will not get as many votes
in North Dakota as he did at the
presidential primary when he was
defeated by Senator La Toilette, and
that Wilson will carry that state
Among the other Republican states
placed in the Wilson column by Re-
publican votes, according to the an
nouncement, are Minnesota, Nebras-
ka, Kansas, Michigan and Ohio. The
list of names gathered by the league
has reached a total of more than
800, 900. This number of letters,
each containing literature, has been
mailed from the headquarters. Pro-
gressive Republican organizers have
visited the states where the Progress
sive Republican movement Is strong.
Louis d. BRANDED, Of Boston, and
other Progressive Republican speak
ers have been on the stump working
for Wilson. The same work has been |
carried on in the East from the New
York headquarters of the league in
Metropolitan Building, and on the Pa
cific Coast from the California head
quarters in San Francisco. The
members have chosen this method OF
rebuking those who left the Progress
sive Republican movement to start
the Third Party.
"The tremendous success with
which our league has met indicates
clearly that the Progressive move
ment lies properly within the Repub-
lican party and that the Third Party
will fail, said Senator Blaine.

SOMETHING FOR NOTHING

When person gets something for
nothing said something usually con-
tains a joker or has a string attached
to It, For instance, a certain preach
er received from a patent medicine
company an offer to provide his
church with song books free Of
charge. II was explained that there
would be few ads In the front and
back of the books. but that these ads
would not be offensive to the men,
oers OF the congregation. Since the
DOCKS we're being secured for moth
ing the preacher gave the order and
the books arrived. He found the ads
to be mildly worded and decided to
use the books. He explained from
the pulpit how the books had been
secured and announced that they
would sing No. 274. Imagine the
peoples surprise, when, on reaching
the second verse, they found them
selves singing, "Hark, the Heavenly
angels sing, Johnson's pills are Just
the thing; angelic voices meek and
mild-two for man and one for
child. '-Guymon Herald.

NEW TRAINS ON r.. 1. TINE CARD
Changes in Time OF Present Trains
Big Help to Travellers

Hutchinson gets two new trains on
the Rock Island when the new Rock
Island time card goes into effect.
The card is being framed and adopted
at Topeka and they are finishing up
their work today.
The new trains are No. ISL and
No. T52 and they will operate be-
tween Harrington and Liberal, doing
local passenger work.
According to advance information
the west bound train, No. ISL, will
leave Harrington at o'clock in the
morning and arrive in Hutchinson at
about 10 o'clock.
The east bound train, No. 1852, will
leave Liberal at $3.50 o'clock in the
afternoon and arrive in Hutchinson
at about $3.50 o'clock at night. This
train will pick up a sleeper for Kan
sas City here and it will also make
connections at Harrington for
Omaha.
Train No. / will arrive in Hutch
inson at about the same time as at
present, Ia. M, and will make only
county seat stops.
Train No, will arrive in Hutch
inson at about o'clock in the even
ing and will make about the same
stops as No. /.
Train No. 3, the Golden State Linn
tied, will arrive here II minutes ear
lier. Train No. 4, the Golden State
Limited, east bound, will arrive here
at about the same time as at pres
eht, 12:41 p. m.
Trains No. 80 and "a will arrive
at about the same time that they do
at present, No. "a arriving at about
$3.50 a. M, and No. 33 arriving at
6:l5 p. m.
According to the local Rock Island
offices, the new time card goes into
effect next Sunday morning at 1901
o'clock. This is not official how
ever and the card may not 80 into eff
feet until a week later. November
10th.
The new trains had to come, as the
Rock Island passenger traffic all
along the line has been too heavy for
the present train service between
Harrington and Liberal.
Good crops are the cause for the
increase in business.
The new trains will be great help
to Hutchinson. Shoppers can come
into Hutchinson from the territory
east or west on the Rock Island and
they can make the round trip with
out any delay and spend most of the
day here.
The train will be big help to the
Hutchinson travelling men as they will

One of the most convincing argu-
ments for the election of Hodges this
year is the high state taxes that
have been forced upon us during the
past four years OF Stubs rule. Many
have said that this Is just democratic
thunder" as higher taxes we're nee
essary to keep up the state institu-
lions, ETC.. put now republican speak,
ers openly admit that there has been
untold extravaganza in many of the
state offices. especially the governors.
And Capper has promised to follow in
the footsteps of Stubs If elected.
Hodges promises to use the pruning
knife, and cut down expenses that
are unwarranted. Which are you
for? Think this over and you will
surely decide for the democratic
leader

A report is current that during the

worded and very insidious in its in
tluenee. The letters and circulars
are sent out under various names,
the Merchants and Manufacturers
League, Progressive Protective
League, Progressive League, Progress
siye Headquarters and other mislead-
ing titles. Post cards are sometimes
sent to every voter in the state,
These are said to emanate from those

A SONG RECITAL OF INTEREST.
Alessandro 5onei, Celebrated Tenor,
to Be in Slater Memorial Hall, Jan
uary 16.

An example of tireless and unSwerv-
ing application to one fixed ideal, and
its attendant success, Is Alessandro
Bonci, who is to appear in concert at
Slater Memorial hall on Jan 16, and
many will then have their first oppor-
tunity to hear him.
Signor Bonci is generally recognized
as the greatest of living tenors ana IN
comparing him with Caruso, Mr.. II. Il.
Krelihiel, musical critic OF the New
York Times, has this to say:
in nearly all the things which en-
ter into the art of vocalization Boncl
is incomparably finer than his rival al
the Metropolitan Opera house. His
tones are impeccably pure, his COM
mand of breath perfect, his enuncia-
ton unrivalled by any singer now be-
fore the public, his phvaStng also, his
sense Of proportion, symmetry aad re-
pose are exquisite. The voice IS a
pure tenor. It has fine nobility IN
the highest register, and in all ats
phases it is as completely under his
command as are the keys Of the pi-
anoforte under the diabolically insen-
ious fingers Of RosenthaL"
Bonci's appearance will be wei
coined by all the InGsic lovers Of this
city. He is acknowledged by all crit
les, both here and abroad, to be the
greatest living lyric tenor and his New
York successes at the Manhattan and
Metropolitan Opera houses have made
him widely known. He will present
here q very comprehensive programme
made up Of selections from the most
noted Of the French, German. Italian
and English composers, which will
give his hearers an excellent opportu-
nifty to judge for themselves the quail
ity ard range Of his voice.
Tickets Cor the Bonci concert are
now on sale at the store of Geo. A.

seats TO be had, but present indications
