FIRST AT The POLLS.
LaFOIlette Men Out Early at North
Dakota Primaries.

Fargo, March 19.-Heavy voting for
Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin mark
ed the opening of the first state pres
idential preference primary today. APP
parently responding to Senator LaFol-
lette'S personal appeal issued during
his recent rapid trip across the state
followers of the Wisconsin man were
the first at the polls in many pre-
cincts. This particularly was true in
Fargo, Grand Forks and other points
in the eastern end of the state.
Campaign managers for Theodore
Roosevelt said reports received from
Bismarck, Manda and other points in
the western end of the state showed
that Roosevelt had lost nothing az
result of Senator LaFollette's speech
making tour.
There has been no effort made by
the national Taft committee to bring
out votes for the president in the pri
maries today. 1t is generally thought
the fight lies between the LaFollette
and Roosevelt men.
Among the Democrats there is no
contest in the matter of a presidential
choice as Governor John Burke's name
appears alone on the ticket. From re
liable sources it was learned today that
many Democrats realizing that one pri-
mary vote for Burke would be good
as thousand were casting ballots in
favor of LaFollette believing a defeat
for Roosevelt would widen the breach
in the Republican party.

At Fifteenth street it turned west and
here it was that WoOdcock was thrown
from the wagon. His hip was crushed
and his face bruised. His age is against
him, according to the physician called,
and he may not recover from his in
iuries.
Woodcock fell in front of the wagon
and two of the wheels passed over him.
The team ran west until they struck
telephone post. Here they stopped
and were caught by a son of the in
jured man.
Woodcock was picked up by by
ISLANDERS and carried in to the residence
of w. w. Gilmore, where a physician
gave him temporary treatment. He
was then removed to the ST. Francis
hospital. His condition is now said u
be serious.
Woodcock is a poultry dealer and he
also raises fine chickens. He owns a
farm at Wakarusa. He was riding in

cident occurred. The wagon was re-
dueed almost to kindling wood

CARNEGIE SAID "NO. /"
Was Asked by Roosevelt to Finance
His Campaign.

New York, March 19.-The Sun
this morning prints the following un-
der a washington date:
"As long ago as November of last
year, Colonel Roosevelt went to An
drew Carnegie and appealed to the
phiIanthropist to help finance his
campaign-again. And Mr.. Carnegie
turned the colonel down.
when Mr.. Carnegie was here to
testify before the Stanley committee
in the steel investigation he seemed
to be convinced that Colonel Roose-
welt would be a candidate against Mr.
Taft When several of his close
friends shook their heads doubtfully
over that notion, Mr.. Carnegie smiled
dryIy He thought he knew better.
A particularly good friend of Mr.. Car
negie pressed him, it is said, for his
reason for believing that Colonel
Roosevelt would get in the race. Then
Mr.. Carnegie told about the colonePs
appeal for cash.
" Colonel Roosevelt has recently
been to see me- said Mr.. Carnegie,
to ask me if 1 would assist him in
financing his campaign-again. Mr..
Carnegie, so the story goes, paused a
little over the again and gave a
light smile.
L told him. Mr.. Carnegie con-
tinued, that I regarded renomina-
ton as Mr.. Taft's due and that all
my sympathies were with Mr.. Taft's
administration.
Not word more would Mr.. Car
negie say about Roosevelt appealing"

ARBOR DAY CALL.
Governor Stubbs Issues His ProcIama-
ton Today.

Governor Stubbs' Arbor day proc
lamation issued today and setting
April as the date for planting trees,
is the shortest and at the same time
the most concise proclamation ever
issued from the executive department
of this state. 1t covers all the ground
of more lengthy and f1owery an
nouncement yet -he expression of the
need for mere trees and the duty of
the citizens to plant them is made as
strong though the proclamation
covered a printed page.
The proclamation reads as follows:
There are one million, seven hun
dred thousand people in Kansas. If
every citizen would plant one tree, or
shrub. for each and every year of his
life the treeless territory would be re-
claimed; natural resources would be
conserved; by performing this sim
pie duty.-eyery person may provide a
refuge and a retreat for the birds of
the air and the beasts of the field, and
become blessing and benediction to
the sons and oa lighters of men.
Therefore, I, Waltor r. Stubs, gov
ernor of Kansas, do hereby designate
1 hope that all universities, colleges
and public schools will have appro-
pirate exercises in commemoration of
the day and that all the inhabitants
will join with them in planting trees
and shrubbery, in order that Kansas
may. as nearly as possible, attain this
end.
In testimony whereof, I have here
unto subscribed my name and caused
of Kansas. Done at the state capitol,
in the city of Topeka, on this nine
teenth day of March 1912.

ChurchilI's Speech in House
of Commons
Believed to Have Caused
Kaiser to Change Plans.

| Berlin, March 19.-Emperor Will
liam has most unexpectedly postponed
his departure for Vienna, Venice and
Corfu, which was scheduled for March
%. This announcement made this
morning caused surprise. The reason
officially assigned for the postpone
ment is difficulties in the sphere of
internal politics.
This explanation is so indefinite that
it may refer to the coal strike, or, as
is more probable to the conflict now
going on in connection with the pro-
vision of finances to cover the increase
in the army and navy recently decided
upon and which caused the resignation
of Adolf Wermuth, formerly secretary
of the imperial treasury. There is a
strong disposition here, however, TO
connect the emperOr'S action with the
speech delivered yesterday by WINSTON
Spencer Churchill, first lord of the ad-
miralty in the British house of COM
mons. This view is strengthened by
the fact that the emperor in the course
of the morning paid long visit TO Ad-
miral Albert Won Tirpitz, secretary or
the imperial navy Immediately after
which leading officers of the admiral
ty staff assembled in conference, the
object of which is not disclosed.
The reason impelling the emperor to
change the plans of his foreign trip
must be quite important as 1t Will in
voIve the embarrassment of Emperor
Francis Joseph of Austria and KING
Victor Emmanuel of Italy, whose ar
been made. Public opinion of the
speech of Winston Spencer Churchill
has not yet crystallized, but his refer
ences to Germany are regarded IN
many quarters as highly !noppor1une
in view of the attempts being made to
reach an understanding between the
two countries.
The negotiations which followed on
the trip to Berlin of Viscount Haldane,
British secretary of state for war are
being continued, but any big hopes or
their success which may have been en-
tertained are failing gradually.
The negotiators would now be sat
isfied in all probability if they could
achieve no more than a simple re-
moval of the sources of misunder-
standing which hitherto have existed.
The bourse was weak today, operators
regarding Mr.. ChurchilPs speech as to
q 75 certain e. tain extent unfriendiy to Ger
many and the postponement OF the
Corfu visit of the emperor giving b1rth
to many rumors in regard TO the IN
ternal and foreign situation. Govern

Cologne Gazette Replies.
Cologne March 19.-In replying today
to the speech made yesterday by
winston Spencer Churchill in the
British house of commons. the Cologne
Gazette adopts an unusually sharp
tone. 1t says in sub nee that Great
Britain must decide from the stand
noint of her own interests what in
crease of her fleet is necessary and that
Germany must do the same thing. 1t
continues: Germany will hardly ever
have navy equal to that of Great
Britain but if Germany's navy is to be
destroyed the victory must cost the
enemy so heavily that England will
hardly have any resources left to de-
fend its great international interests"
