success.
Early returns gave Governor

the solid South" and the States
of Connecticut, Delaware, KEN
lucky, Maine, Maryland, Massz-
chusetts, New York, West vir~
ginia, Indiana and Missouri.
AS the night advanced and re-
turns from the West began to
come in, these earlier estimates
were confirmed, and Montana
New Jersey and New iexico
were added to those that seemed
certain for the Democratic candi-
dates. while scattering returns
from San Francisco and Los
Angeles made it probable that
California might join the Wilson
Marshall column
Western Returns Slow.
No returns from any Of tho
Western States have been re-
ceived as yet from which any sort
of an accurate notion can be OBJ
tanned of how the States Of the
plains and beyond the Rockies
have voted for President and
Vice-President.
New Mexico, which the Pro-
gressives thought was sure for
Roosevelt. apparently has been
|carried by Wilson. Calnornia Is
safely for Roosevelt, but North
Dakota, which Dem ocrats
thought was safe for Wilscns
seems to be absolutely divided

FEES FOR A JUROR.
Based on Wage System of Other Days
Too Low Now.

why, judge, I'm so busy just can't
spare time to serve on the jury de-
clared a farmer to Judge George H
Whitcomb this morning pleading to
be released from jury service.
The man was only one of dozen
who appeared to ask to be relieved.
MY business demands my constant
attention." a Topeka business man
who has been summoned, told the
court Il can't spare the time 1t
would cost me $500 or more to serve
a month or six weeks"
And thus it went. Judge Whitcomb
listened to the tales of woe and told
each applicant he would see what
could be done, but he made no prom
ises.
The inadequacy of payment for jury
service, the fees being only 81 a day.
and the fact that the average mans
time is worth good deal more than
that is declared to be responsible for
the rush that always follows the scrv-
ing of summons for jury service, and
the pleas of those summoned to be
released from service.
Il don't blame them for wanting to
get off," Judge Whitcomb said "but
Notwithstanding that we must have a
jury It is too bad to work a hardship
on anybody, but sometimes it has to
be done. I am going to do the best
/ can for them

MISBRANDED FRUIT.
Food Inspectors Bring Wichita Dealer
Into Federal Court.

Food and Drug Inspector d. G.
WinsIow of Kansas City. Mo, has filed
suit against 100 cases of canned pears
in the possession of Jet & Wood,
grocers, doing business in Wichita.
The case was brought to the federal
court today.
The fruit was misbranded, bearing
the label, Maryland Chief. Choice
Pears" and alleging that the fruit was
first quality in heavy syrup. The anal
ysis showed that the cans contained
4S per cent thin syrup, skin, knots
and pieces of pear. The cans were
Immediately confiscated and the deal
ers were fined.
This simply shows said the as
sistant district attorney, what peo
pie were doing before the food and
drug act was passed. It's also an
illustration of what they are trying
to do now. We have fewer cases,
however, every year.
The case will be brought before the
federal court in March
