FARMERS INSTITUTE
STORMS THE LEGIsLATURE

Manhattan, Feb. 22.-What may
have transpired behind closed doors
at the meeting OF the Farmers
Union which was held here this
week may never be fully understood,
perhaps. But one thing Is certain,
there was enough happened to cause
more than 800 farmers to make
trip to Topeka today to see the
legislature and implore the law
makers to pass some laws which
they want passed and to object to
others they do not want passed. A
special train left the Union Pacific
today about one o'clock, bearing the
delegation. Three hundred and ten
tickets we're sold for this train.
Talk about lobbying for special
Interests" said A. G. Davis, the ma
tional secretary, 1--WE are going to
lobby in a mob for general inter-
ests."
Here are a few OF the things the
union is standing for in the lawmak-
ing line:
Unanimous against law compell-
ing our county to support a farm
adviser. We do not object to others
employing a farm adviser II they
SO desire.
Majority against repeating the
Barnes high school law.
Majority favor making the expert
ment station at Hays self-support-
ing.
Unanimous against county school
board
We are opposed to the Lever bill.
We are opposed to the county as
SCISSOR and ITO county rock road and
state rock roads.
We object to law creating coun-
ty school boards.
Assessing in January.
County auditor.
Township board Of review.
We ask for a law whereby the
state prints all school books and
sells them at cost.
Repeal OF law and not change ev-
cry five years.
That the secretary of agriculture
be elected by the people.

signature Of Governor Hodges to be-
come q law.
There are 1875 representative dis
tricts in Kansas and forty senator
ial districts. In times past for a
candidate for United States senator
to win the nomination at the primary
he had to carry plurality OF these
165 legislative districts. II he got
the majority of the popular vote
for the whole state, but didn't carry
q majority Of the districts, he Was
MT nominated. That happened last
year.
United States Senator Charles Cur
tis and former Governor w. R.
Stubs we're the opposing candidates
for the Republican nomination for
United States senator at the primar'
les in 1912. Curtis got q majority
OF the popular vote Of the whole
state, but Stubs carried majority
Of the legislative districts and was
therefore nominated.

HADLEY CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT
Leaders Of Both Factions Favor Get
Together Idca--Meeting TO Be
Held in short Time for
Purpose.

washington, Feb. 20.-Active
steps looking to the holding of an
extraordinary session Of the Repub-
lican national convention this year
are being taken by middle-of-the-
road progressives. The preliminary
moves will eliminate in gathering
to be held in Washington early IN
March.
The proposal is to get such an
expression of the Republican senti-
ment of the country as will induce
the national committee to call ma
tional convention to meet in Kansas
City, St. Louis or Chicago some time
this year, and agree upon a plat
form and elect a new committee.
The first suggestion was made by
Senator Cummins of Iowa, several
months ago, and shortly afterward
. number Of Republican governors
met here and discussed the situa-
ton. Following this informal con-
terence Governor Herbert s. Hadley
said efforts would be made to draw
np o new declaration Of principles.
When It became known here yes
terday that another meeting ON a
larger scale would be held in Wash
ing soon, Senator Cummins strongly
approved the idea. Senator Poin-
dexter said the progressive senators
would not go into 1t. Senator Joe
Bristow discouraged the idea Of such
q meeting, and said 1t was doomed
In advance to defeat. While the
difficulties are recognized, the pro-
mOters are confident.
Students of politics are of the
firm belief that Herbert s. Hadley
is the strongest man in the field
for the presidential nominee on the
Republican ticket in 1915 should
there be an amalgamation Of the two
factions Of the party.

SENATOR HOWE WINS
WITH CORPORATION BILL

Topeka, Feb. 20.-With the at
t0rney general and the secretary of
state as his advisers, with Mcmillan
OF Ottawa as his orator for the re-
buttal, and with his desk piled high
with figures, statistics, reports from
other state, and bulky law books.
J. W.. Howe, senator from Dickin-
son county, won an all afternoon
corporation tax fight Tuesday.
The only changes made in the
original Howe bill and the measure
messaged over from the house were
amendments by Davis of Bourbon
and Price of Clark, The former be-
lieved that the bill inflicted high
Or tax to the small corporation in
proportion than to the large cor
poration. The latter thought that
building and loan association should
not be considered. Both senator's
won their amendments.

myself to go back" said Governor
Oswald West last night on his way
to Salem, the state capital. The
governors statement came when he
was informed that the speaker OF
the house and the president of the
senate with their respective chief
clerks had forced their way into his
private office and left there the bills
passed by both houses. The houses
then adopted resolutions declaring
that these constituted delivery to
the governor" who has five days
after delivery in which to sign or
veto them.
The legislature normally would
have adjourned sine die last Satur-
day but for fear the governor with
whom the majority is not in accord,
would veto many measures, q five
day recess was taken with intent not
to adjourn until the governor had
been compelled to pass on all bills.
On Friday. however, the govern
or and his secretary disappeared and
the bills could not be delivered In
the usual way. After waiting All

Through the window Of the govern
or's office was made.

PLANTING OF TREES
ON IN FULL BLAST

Hamilton, April 11.-(Special.)-Or-
chard tree planting is in full swing in
this part of the valley. For the past
two weeks large shipments of fruit
trees have been received here and
taken. to various fruit ranches. The
growers on the west side are especially
active along this line. A large amount
of new acreage is being planted this
season, while many trees are being
filled in where gaps have been made
in orchards by the ravages of the
blight. Dynamite is being largely used
in making the holes for the trees. Thi,
system has been found to be cheaper
and quicker than the old method, and
better for the young trees, as the
ground for some distance from the tree
is loosened and put in splendid condi-
ton for the growing roots of the tree.
