Burke and Senator Crawford on this
issue.
The strong progressive republican
who is mentioned in some quarters as
IN opponent of Senator Crawford when
the proper time comes has from the
first been On the opposite side Of the
Hyde case and made a strenuous hight
to have Hyde's prison sentence stand.
II is expected that when he enters the
field against Senator Crawford he will
make the Hyde case one of the princi-
| pal issues Of his campaign and seek to
place both Senator Crawford and Con.
gresham Burke on the defensive The
name of this progressive republican
cannot be made public as yet, as he
has not thus far definitely indicated
| whether or not he will make the fight
for the s~enatorship, but if he decides to
do so he will make his announcement
in due time.
That Edwin S johnson, of Yankton,
who last year made a magnificent run
for the Office Of governor on the demo
cratic ticket, will be the democratic
candidate for United States senator
next year is said to be reasonably Ger
tain. As the election will be under
the Oregon plan of electing United
States senator's, a division of the pro
gressive republican vote might easily
prove fatal and permit Mr.. Johnson
to slip under the wire.
Other candidates who are likely to
make a fight for election to the senate
as Senator Crawford is successors are
r. o. Richards, of Huron. and
George W Egan, of Sioux Falls. The
former was a candidate last year fol
the Uuited Stats senatorship to sue
coed Senator Gamble and rolled up
a good vote, while Mr. Egan made
phenomenal run in the June primaries
for nomination as the republican can,
didate for governor. and for a time
had all the politicians guessing, being
defeated by only a few thousand votes
after one of the hottest and most
Spectacular contests ever waged for
the Office of governor in South Da'
kota.
The present preliminary skirmishing
over the United States senatorshiI
foreshadows one of the fercest politi
cal battles ever staged in South Ds

ABOUT POLITICS
Talk of Successor to Crawford
johnson, Democrat, in
the Field.

Pierre, April For several weeks
South Dakota politicians have been in
dustrlously aJ Work seJJrng rne pms Iur
the big fight over the United States
senatorship. which will eliminate next
year when Senator Coe /. Crawford
will seek to succeed himself, and other
aspiring politicians will strive to de-
feat him and secure their own election
as his successor for a full s~ix-year
term.
Senator Crawford himself is the
FIRST of the candidates for the United
States senatorship to VISIT different
pairs of the state for the PURPOSE of
thoroughly organizing his forces for
the life and death struggle of 1914.
For several weeks he has been visit
Ing his friends in Different parts of
the state and getting them actively
at work in his behalf. 1t is general
ly acknowledged, even by his opponents.
that he will have the strong support
of Gov. Byrne and others identified
with the progressive republican state
administration.
There has been talk at different times
to the effect that Gov. Byrne would be
the progressive republican candidate
against Senator Crawford. but in
usually we'll informed quarters these
reports are not taken seriously. As
Senator Crawford is a progressive re.
publican and has been one of the chief
leaders of that faction since control Of
South Dakota was wrested from the
stalwaIts some years ago, it is believed
Gov. Byrne and other progressive re
publicans who hold stale offices will
line up for Senator Crawford.
However, it is practically certain
that Senator Crawford will have an
active progressive republican as an op-
ponent for the senatorship, aud this
will be n of the developments of
the now celebrated case of Charles
l.. Hyde. the millionaire real estate
man of Pierre, whose prison term for
using the mails to defraud investors
in town lots was revoked or abated
as n of the closing acts of the Taft
administration. 1t has been shown
that Senator Crawford wrote a letter
to President Taft In behalf of Hyde,
and there was no secret about the
work which Congressman Burke did
in behalf of Hyde, he being one of the
most active in securing u pardon, so
far as the prison poi tion of the sentence
was concerned.
1t is believed that Congressman Burke
will come out for the senator ship to
succeed Senator Crawford and will
make his campaign as a stalwart re-
publican, with which faction he always
has been identified. Inasmuch as 10th
himself and Senator Crawford took the
same position with regard to the Hyde
pardon matter, both will be glad to
have the Hyde case eliminated SO far
as they are concerned during the i'm
pending battle over the s~enatorship.
But there aresother aspiring states
men who promise to make full use of
the Hyde case in promoting their own
interests and will. from the time
they enter the fight for the United
States s~enatorship until the close of
the struggle, take advantage of every
opportunity to make votes for them
selves through agitation of the Hyde
case and will do their best to cap
ture votes from. beth Congressman

BUFFALO TO PROTEST
AGAINST NEW TARIFF

BUFFALO, n. Y, April 19.-The
Chamber of Commerce has decided to
call a mass-meeting. AT the meet
ing a delegation will be selected and
sent to Washington to protest against
some features of the tariff bill. Both
the milling and the packing in
dustries of the State are threatened,
it is stated, in resolution. This has
been adopted by the board of direc-
tors:
"A duty imposed on wheat. oats
and buckwheat, unless there is an
equalizing duty on products and by
products of such commodities" the
resolution says, would work a great
injustice to the milling industry of
the United States, and especially to
the city of Buffalo, where the aggre-
gate value of plants devoted to such
industry, including elevators, is
$50, 900, OoO."

PHILADELPHIA. April BIN
an address to the Philosophical So
ciety yesterday Professor Paul
Haupt, of Johns Hopkins University,
said there was no Scriptural founda-
ton for the idea of final day of
judgment.
The book of Zachariah, which
Jews as well as Christians give as
authority for the description of the
last Judgment" he said, "refers mere
ly to a municipal plan for municipal
improvements laid out by the Macca-
bees. The poetic and fanciful Ian
guage of the biblical scrbes has been
misinterpreted."
The speaker also said that Belize
bub had been described by the an
clients las the father of flies, not lies,
as the modern horror of those germ
carrying insects was shared in bibli-
cal times"

WILL INFORM PUBLIC
OF MILK CONDITIONS

Plans for joint conference of the
Board of Health members and the
finance committee of the Common
Council, when the Health Board will
ask for an appropriation to carry out
its program of rigid inspection of all
milk and milk dairies in the city, are
being made. The joint meeting will
be held on April 30.
1t was decided at a meeting of the
Board of Health yesterday to make
public statements each month con-
corning the grade of milk, the con-
dition of the diaries supplying it and
the names of the dealers. Fred e.
Seller. representing an association of
nine dealers who handle nearly all of
the milk sold in Newark, submitted
a number of suggestions for the pro-
posed new ordinance governing the
sale of this commodity.
The dealer contended that clean
milk from cows which have not been
subjected to the tuberculin test
should be allowed. He declared that
so per cent. of the farmers would stop
shipping milk to this city if the
tuberculin test on cows was enforced.
smaller concerns, said Mr.. Seller, and
would force the price of milk up fully
third higher than at present.
Mr.. Seller pointed out that the
farmers objected to having their
cattle inoculated twice a year. "They
claim it results in the very disease
1t is supposed to prevent" he con-
tinued. For this reason. they will
either ship to other cities or sell
their milk to the cheese factories"
When Mr. Seller gave his opinion
that good physical test was as sat
isfactory as the tuberculin, excep-
tons were taken to this by Drs.
Theodore W. Corwin and DIR. Werner
Runge. Both declared 1t was unsafe
and unwise to use milk from cows
which had not been subjected to the

SHOE MACHINERY
! ON THE FREE LIST
Administrative Features of
Tariff Revision Measure Will
Be Completed This Evening.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-Demo-
Gratis in the House continued their
caucus on tariff revision today, with
the expectation of completing by
nightfall the administrative pro-
visions of the bill and of disposing OF
numerous ways and means committee
amendments.
These amendments do not affect the
substance of the tariff bill to any ex-
tent, but are intended to clarity and
strengthen the language of the meas
ure, and include a few relatively un-
important changes in rates which
commended themselves to the com
mittee in recent communications to
the ways and means committee ma
jority. So far the only substantial
change made in the tariff bill has
been the transfer of shoe machinery
to the free list.
The Republicans of the ways and
means tcommittee also conferred to-
day over the amendments which they
propose to offer as substitutes for
the Democratic wool and cotton
schedules.
The ways and means committee
majority agreed today to amend
ments to transfer buckwheat and rye
to the free list and to add savings
banks mot conducted for profit to
the list of exemptions from the oper-
alton of the income tax. They were
reported later to the caucus There
was no change in the items of wheat
on which the millers have been
making a great fight because of the
putting of flour on the free list
When the caucus assembled the
Democratic leader, Mr.. Underwood,
said he expected the tariff bill would
be completed in caucus by tonight.
As amended, it will be reintroduced
in the House Monday, and, according
to present plans, voted upon by the
entire membership of the ways and
means committee at a meeting Tues
day and probably taken up for con-
sideration by the House Wednesday.
The Democratic caucus voted down
proposal by Representative Brous-
sard, of Louisiana, to require the adj
ministration to yabrogate the treaty
with Cuba, which, since 1904. has
given a 20 per cent. preferential tariff
rate to Cuban sugars. Mr.. Brous-
sard said the Cuban minister had
advised the State department that
the treaty should be adjusted to meet
new conditions that would arise
under the tariff revision.
The caucus also rejected an
amendment of Representative L.
E,ngle, of Florida, to impose an in
ternal revenue tax equal to the tariff
duty on each manufacturer who does
not pay living wages. employs
foreigners, or works employees ex-
cessively.
