Colonel Claims South Dakota.

SIOUX FALLS, s.. D., June
The polls for South Dakota's state
primary opened this morning at 8
o'clock and will close at five p. m.
Ten delegates each to Chicago and
Baltimore and United States sena-
tor are to be selected, together with
nominees for governor.
Roosevelt leaders as the polls open
ed advanced the claim that today's
vote will show plurality OF from TO-
600 to $4,000 for Roosevelt. Taft's
supporters are hopeful, however, that
with the division Of the anti Taft vote
between Roosevelt and LaFollette,
they can elect their ten delegates to
the Chicago convention.
The campaign between the Clark
and Wilson forces for the ten dele.
gates to Baltimore has been lively.
and both sides are claiming victory
today.
Doubtful at First.
| When the aft and roosevelt forces
| lined up in the republican state con-
tvention this morning for the final
struggle for control of the "big six.
to the Chicago convention, the out
come of the struggle was as much In
doubt as it was yesterday, or a week
ago, or the day after the primaries.
It was safe to say that no human
ylbeing knew the exact strength OF the
two contending sides and this includ-
/ ed the opposing leaders, who for days
had been making claims of victory.
When it's all over today and either
the Taft or the Roosevelt forces shall
have won, the victorious general prob
| ably will say, Il told you So but
early today, as he led his forces into
battle. there was every indication that
1 he was. quaking In his boots and that
he did not know whether he would win
or lose.

counties. eleven in all. There will be
a minority report to seat the Roose-
welt delegates from Crawford and this
will bring the Taft-Rooseyelt contest
to another direct issue.
This has been a remarkable contest
one of the most remarkable. in fact
that Ohio has seen in many decades.
Almost invariably in past conventions
the first days session has been
enough to decide control, but this time
there was even more doubt on the sew
ond and concluding day than there was
on the first.

MEAT STRIKE STILL ON
Militant Crusade Assisted by Boycott
Pledge Now Circulated.

New York, June 1.-THE militant
crusade being made by tenement
housewives against kosher shops in
an attempt to lower the price of meat
has spread from Brooklyn to the East
side, Harlem and the Bronx. Several
butchers in Harlem and the Bronx
were forced to close their shops to pro-
tect them from the mobs of women
that roamed the streets. In the
Brownsville section of Brooklyn, more
than one hundred kosher shops were
closed. Indignant housewives patrolled
the street.
The congested East side is turning
to VegetarianiSm. Mass meetings were
held last night at which leaders advo-
Gated vegetable diet as means of
forcing down the price OF meat. Many
pledged themselves to this scheme.
The East side women have organized
a house to house canvass in their eff
forts to stop the purchase of meat and
some of those serving on these visiting
committees report great success.
The East side campaign is to be
educational, it is stated. Butchers are
to be forced out of business. or COM
PEELED to lower the price, not by vio-
lent demonstrations, but through the
loss of custom. The East side will at
tempt to spread so successfully the
advantage of eating vegetables that
there will be no desire to purchase
meat at least not at the present prices.

mentioned by Secretary Kelley.
The lease on the rooms in the Com
merce building will not expire until
next March. but the committee will
lose no time in its work of investiga-
ton, so that it will be possible to move
into new quarters at that time.

rates the first thing in considering in
locating in a city.
Every day five or ten people come
up to the office of the Commercial club
thinking that it is the logical place for
the headquarters for the Topeka Re-
bate association.
1T would be a great advantage to
have all the organizations together
under one roof
1t was announced some months ago
that the Commercial club had been
making inquiries to whether or not
arrangements could be made for the
club to take over the home of the
Elks. No deal could be closed at that
time, but it is barely possible that some
kind of a satisfactory proposition will
be advanced by the new committee.
There are several other quarters
that the management of the CONNER
cial club has had under consideration.
One was the top floor of a sky scraper
which never got beyond the AIR cas-
tle' stage. Another was building on
West Sixth avenue, and it is rumored
that that building is still available.

Philadelphia. June 14.-Blind for
seven years. his case given up as hope
less by physicians and surgeons, Owen
Harris. a machinist, is at the Medic
Chirirugical hospital today with his
sight restored by one of the most
daring operations ever attempted
the removal of the tissues from the eye
of another man and grating them on
the eye of Harris.
Harrislost the sight of both eyes in
a flare back from the furnace in the
shop in which he was working.
DR.. L. Webster Fox, eye specialist of
the hospital, believed there was some
hope for him.
When a patient came to the hospital
with an eye SO badly injured that it
had to be removed, Harris was sum-
moned. He was placed on the operat-
ing table The eye was taken from the
injured man, the eyeball was stripped
of the desired tissues, and these were
placed over the sfghtless orbs of Har-
ris. Harris was kept in dark room
for eight days. Then the bandage was
removed and Harris could see a little.
He is now awaiting the arrival of
another patient. who must lose an eye.
When this patent arrives, DIR. Fox will
perform an operation upon the second
eye of Harris.

PLAN CLARK FIGHT
Stone Says TWO.ThirdS Rule
Will Be Attacked.
Adopted Only to Defeat Van
Buren,, Senator Declares.

st. Louis, June 14.-Senator William
j. Stone declared today that friends
of Speaker Champ Clark will support
a resolution before the Democratic ma
tional convention abolishing the two
thirds rule and providing that when
ever any candidate receives majority
of the votes cast, he shall be declared
the party's nominee.
Senator Stone said the twO-thirds
rule is not looked upon with favor by
Democracy and that an effort will be
made to get other Democratic presi-
Dental possibilities to ask its aboli-
ton by the convention. He said:
THE consensus of Dem ocratic opin-
ion is and has been for years that the
two-thirds rule, so called, is absolutely
without resolution or justification on
any basis that ought to underlie the
procedure of Americans in dealing
with great public questions. I do not
hesitate to say that nine-tenths and
more of the Democrats of the country
do not believe in this So-called two
thirds rule.
Nearly three-fourths of a century
ago when President Martin Van Buren,
was candidate for denomination to
party, the national convention, by
not wholly creditable political per
Torrance, was induced to adopt a res
olution providing that no man should
be declared the nominee of the con-
vention until he had received the vote
of at least two-thirds of the accredited
delegates to the convention. This rule
was adopted at that convention for
the purpose of defeating Van Buren,,
who had a majority, but was never
able to obtain a two-thirds vote. Since
that time this foolish rule of that con-
vention, adopted to serve the ex1gen-
cies of the moment, has been, in a
way, observed by Democratic conven-
lions.
81 have attended national conven-
tions regularly for about 80 years ana
served on the national committee for
many years. I have talked with hun
dreds of Democrats about this two
thirds rule and 1 cannot now recall
ever hearing one express himself re-
garding it who did not say it was in |
defensible and ought to be set aside
as a rule of practice. The almost uni |
versal feeling among Democrats is. as
it should be, that the majority should

small electric lights illuminate the
