After that we must either depend

As to the worlds coal supply Mr..
Dickson said that the largest fields

could. of course, make no reckoning.

WASHINGTON. Sept 11.--An the

sentatives today, when the almost en-
acted Underwood tariff measure show
ed its head to be patted and sent to
conference by the Democrats, kicked

be treated with coauettish but not en-
tireIy enthusiastic favor by the Pro-

1t was the motion 10 send the bill to

forth the pent-up rage of the Repub-

adopted by vote of 1s2 to 81, will be

Civilized man is. or ought to be,
beginning to realize Mr.. Dickson said,
that in reducing more and more of
the surface of the earth to what he
considers a habitable condition he is
making so much progress and making
it SO rapidly that the problem of find
ing suitable accommodation for his
increasing numbers must become
urgent within a few generations. We
are getting into the position of the
merchant whose trade is constantly
expanding and who foresees that his
premises will shortly be too small for
him In our case removal to more
commodious premises elsewhere seems
impossible--we are not likely to find
a means of migrating to another
pIanet--so we are driven to consider
means of rebuilding on the old site
and thus making the best OF. what we
have that eur business may not suffer,

Frank n. Wiborg was assistant
to Secretary of Commerce and Labor
Nagel during President Tafts admin

the late John Sherman.
Oficsals connected with the sur

10 believe Mrs. Wiborg had simply
made a mistake in her calculations,
but developments AT the hearing to-
day induced them to turn the mat
ter over to the United States attor-
neys. 1t Is said that Mrs. Wiborg' s
declaration was $500 worth of dut!abie
goods, but that the appraisers found
that she had bought $4,000 worth.
Most OF the purchasers were OF wo-
mems wearing apparel, much OF
which had already been worn. so
that figuring the present value of the
articles in this country, II is said that
the figure is placed at $4,000.

Varied Opinions as to Result

Candidates

NEW YORK. Sept. 1.-THE death
Of Mayor Gaynor completely changes
the political fight in New York. At
first glance the situation is very
much simplitied. Many politicians
however, have felt that conditions

look is more confused than ever.
Putting the situation in brief. the

Tammany's Viewpoint.
Tammany men believe that at least
half, possibly two-thirds, OF the
mayors support will pass to Judge

The fusionists say that the issue
is now clear between Tammany Hal
and fusion, the effect of which Will

These estimates are predicated on
the assumption that there VIII be
no successor to Mayor Gaynor on the

are many men. however. who assume
that such will not be the case. The
names of Herman Ridder. William r.

CRITICISMS OF CURRENCY BILL
DIRECTED AGAINST COMPUL-
sorry FEATURE.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE
criticism of the Glass administration
currency bill, as indicated by the gem
eral debate in the house today, is
directed mainly at the provision which
would compel national banks to come
into the new system. or forfeit their
charters, and the method of Organizing
the federal reserve board. The last
named feature of the bill appears to
be the most vulnerable and Is for
that reason getting much attention
from the Republicans and Progress

Official Primary Vote

After carefully canvassfng the re-
turns from the primary of August 9th
and officially declaring the nominees
Of the party chosen at that time, the
State central Democratic committee
last night decided to importune the
next general assembly to remedy the
defects in the primary law, and then
settled itself to listen for over two
hours to argument on the latest phase
of the Norfolk county factional fight
Of a quarter century standing, which
was finally tabled on the ground that
the committee had no jurisdiction.
The sum and substance of the pro-
teSt-fratn- Norfolk county which was
presented by Judge d. Tucker Brooke
for the protestants Is that the Demo-
cratic executive committee of the
county had fixed the basis of represen-
tation on the county committee on the
vote of the gubernatorial primary OF
1909 instead of that of the presidential
election of 1912. While the county
committee is clothed with discretion
airy powers. the professionals. who are
known as the "straightouts,' argued
that the state committee had right
to curb these powers when II was
shown that the committee was play
ing politics" Captain r. c. Marshall
who represented the Norfolk county
committee denied all the claims OF the
protestants.
F.gged on the Fight
+. TAYLOR Thompson offered a reso-
luton to the effect that the State COM
mittee could not handle the matter
under the new primary law except
through the proper channels, ana
moved it's reference to the district
committee. This met with a second
from Judge r. T. w. Duke. but I. j.
Downing, who stated, amid laughter,
that he wouldn't feel at home at a
meeting of the StaE committee unless
there was some row from Norfolk to
settle, urged that the committee hear
what the Norfolk factions had to say;
that. he said was the committee S
business.
Judge Brooke was on his feet early
and often. and got In not only his
petition and brief to the committee,
but lengthy argument, in which he
alleged that the members of the COM
rnittee had betrayed their trusts; that
at least two members were fusionists,
and boilers, and had been engaged in
questionable practices. The ''straigh-
outs"-which faction he represents
contend that the county committee
should apportion the representation

ALBANY, ~. Y. Sept 1.-THE
State assembly acted legally when it
voted to impeach Governor William
Sulzer on the morning of August / 9Th,
and after the articles of impeaeh-
ment were adopted by majority
vote of the members elected to the
assembly, the prerogatives of the chief
executive of New York State were
transferred automatically from Gov

ex-governor until the senate passes
upon the guilt or innocence of Gov
ernor Sulzer.
a decision laying down those prin-
ciples of law was announced by Sta

Justice Hasbrouck concurs In the
opinion recently given by Attorney
General Thomas Carmody 10 Score
tary of State Mitchell May. and agrees
with Mr.. Carmody in every point OF

declaring that the function Of i'm

ruling made by any court on the

when the assembly could consider the
subject of impeachment was when &

THE subject Of Impeachment. like
the power of the Legislative body to
punish for contempt has "a different
character from a subject requiring the
action Of both branches OF the legis-
lature and OF the governor. In order
that laws may be enacted. The power
conferred on the assembly to impeach
the governor Is a judicial power
The measure Of the powers of cur
rulers in the assembly as respects the
governor, is that IL may inpeach him

These considerations lead to the
conclusion that the governor has been

COMMON CAUSE OF LOSS

Lined up alongside the fence in a Tennessee farmers barnyard we saw, the other day, a binder, hay loader, two moving machines, a grain drill, with some cultivators and blows thrown in for good measure. It was a rainy day, too and all these implements were getting a thorough soaking. If the farmer leaves them there all winter, the probabilities are that the depreciation in their value will amount to enough to build a good implement shed, which would last from ten to twenty years The Progressive Farmer.
