for recognizing the old
republican party are being push
ed industriously by the so-called
"Humpty-Dumpties." But all is
not harmony. Cummins Is sus-
pected of desire to reorganize
in the interest of Cummins as the
compromise candidate in 1916.
This plan is not regarded with
favor by LaFollette. Co-ordinat-
ing with Cummins to certain
extent are the desires of Root,
Lodge and Crane, who want an
early convention-next year, IL
possible-to put the party on rec
ord in favor of some bright new
reforms which will serve to coun-
teract the odor left by the last
Chicago convention. But one re-
form insisted upon, namely, the
elimination of Barnes of New
York, is opposed by Barnes. For
some reason he does not care to
be eliminated. So the Barnes
Penrose wing of the party is not
Tapping in accord with the other
two wings. Altogether the eff
fort to put Humpty-Dumpty back
on the wall is not glittering In its
promise.

Well Known Store
Makes Change

The upstairs store of Bates &
Mcclellan after year in the
Bankers Trust building, found
their rooms much to small for
their growing business and have
moved to larger and better quar-
ters at 9th and Commerce street.
The big success of this firm
has shown clearly that if you
give the public good, honest
values, success is assured.
One of the mem bers of the firm
in discussing the move. said:
This corner gives us the only
daylight Mems Clothes Store in
Tacoma, a place where daylight
is on all sides and where clothes
can be bought under perfect con-
ditions. Our policy of selling
merchandise at only two prices,
SIS and SIS, will be the same as
in our former location. Our store
rent allows us to sell at from 81
to $40 less than the ground floor
merchant. While we have no
fancy fixtures or expensive win
dow shows, our values speak for
themselves, and when Tacoma
people realize what we are doing
for them we will do the largest
business i'm Tacoma in our line.
For the fall we will represent one
of Americas largest raincoat
houses and sell at both wholesale
and retail"

BISHOP KEATOR
OBJECTS To THE
CHANGE0FN NAME

OLYMPIA, May 30. - In a
statement issued here last night,
Bishop Frederic w. Keator &c
clared himself opposed to the
change of the name of the Protes-
tant Episcopal church of America
that has been proposed. Some
want the word Protestant"
stricken and the word Catholic"
inserted, meaning the church in
its broadest and most inclusive
sense, the brotherhood of univer-
sal man.
While he thinks the idea of the
Catholicism of the church is
good one, he does not believe in
changing the name, for fear many
people would take it to mean 1t
was a branch of the Catholic
church.

LAWYER SOUGHT
DELAY At LAST
MOMENT

Attempting by clever ruse to
obtain a delay i'm his trial, Attor-
ney Louis I. Lefebyre, who was
officially disbarred from further
law practice in Tacoma yesterday,
was discovered yesterday after
noon by Prosecutor Dow a few
moments before the dis5arment
w. announced.
The attorneys last witness had
concluded, and he asked the court
to delay for few moments until
Judge Elliot of Seattle, an attor-
ney for the Seattle Electric COM
pany, should arrive. He said
that Judge Elliot would be an
important witness.
The court waited more than an
hour. At last Prosecutor Dow
telephoned to Judge Elliot's Office
by long distance telephone, and
got in communication with the
attorney.
Aren't you coming to Tacoma
to testify in this case?" asked
Dow.
What case?" demanded the
lawyer.
"Why, the Lefebvre case" re-
piled the prosecutor.
Don't know anything about
it," replied Elliot.
Dow left the phone and sum-
moned Lefebvre. The attorney
talked to Elliot and explained
that he had wanted him as a wit
ness. Turning from the phone,
his head lowered, Lefebvre walk
ed into court without a word, and
told Judge Card that he was
ready for the decision.
