GRAVE GOVERNORS
TRIP THE TANGO
State Executives at Conference Try Out
Ragtime Steps and Stamp
Them o. X.

Colorado Springs, Col, Aug. 29.-The
governors attending the governors con-
ference here attended a modern dance
where the tango was the rule and rage
and bunny hugs were also on the pro-
gram. BY participating, they set the
seal of executive approval on the tango.
The occasion was the ball given by
Governor and Mrs. Elias NJ. Ammons
governors exclusive set, which, by the
way, is as exclusive as any in the coun-
| try hesitated at first. From being
shocked they grew tractable and then
interested. The ice was cracked when
Gov. Tasker l.. Oddie of Nevada, the
baby of the convention, took the floor
with Miss Schoenfeld of Tuxedo Park,
N. Y. They bunny-hugged. Later they
drifted into the steps OF the tango and
from this went through the raggers'
repertoire, as if the Hon. Oddie did not
hail from the desert wild and bare.
All of the governors at the confer
enee We're at Governor and Mrs. Am
mons party, as were also the smart
sets of Denver and Little Lunnon.
State regulations of nominations, the
same as of elections, was urged by Gov
ernor Simeon f. Baldwin of Connect
cut, in an address before the conference
here.
Governor Baldwin proposed that the
state assume the expense of nomina-
tions, so that the poor man would not
be deferred from entering politics be-
cause of lack of the necessary funds,
which often furnishes ground, he said,
for the accusation that a worthy candi-
date, though poor, is forced to accept the
help of those whose support is an in
clImbrance.
Among the items Governor Baldwin
would have the state pay for are print
ing and distribution of ballots. travelling
expenses of the candidates and speakers
in his behalf, and expenses incidental to
his election. The cost of circulating
petitions and expenses OF a personal ma
ture he would have the candidate pay.
Governor Baldwin said:
''rhe government must have right
in elf.defense so to regulate the max
ing of nominations, whether by party
conventions or primaries or by direct
primaries of the whole people, as not
to dictate the choice but to assure that
it fairly represents the choice of those
who make it. The state must have
a right, if the people are satisfied that
such nominations by party convention
or primary can be replaced by another
mode of proceeding which gives them
a better opportunity to make their
wishes prevail. to institute this other
mode And what the state can insti-
tute it can protect"
Gov. o. B. Colquitt Of Texas precipi-
tated lively discussion of the subject
when he declared that the idea is farci- |
cal and altogether impracticable. He
stated that it cost him $4,000 to get |
elected, Of which he paid $1,000 and his
friends $4,000.
"Did your friends expect 60 get their
WORTH" asked Governor Carey |
Of Wyoming.
"You bet your life they are getting /
their moneys worth" holly retorted the
Texas governor.
Governors McGovern of Wisconsin.
carey of Wyoming and Byrne of South |
Dakota spoke in support of Governor
8aldwin's plan. Governor Ames of Col Il
'rado said he favored the idea to a linn
ted extent.

DID NOT KNOW
RIFLE WAS LOADED
He Aimed It in Practice at
Pole of Team Mates
Tent

Camp Perry, O., Aug. 29.-Francisco
Zegaira BalIon, member of the Peru
Wan team taking part in the interna-
tionaI rifle tournament here, was in
stantly killed in his tent yesterday
morning by team colleague, Julian e..
Zegaira.
Zegaira came in from the range, and
in his practice aiming snapped his rifle.
1t proved to be loaded. The bullet went
through the tent pole, pierced Balloons
neck, tore through the tent and sped
on across the range.
To carry loaded weapon anywhere
in camp excepting on the firing line
is a fragrant violation of rule of the
range.

McAdoo Starts a Tennis Cabinet.

For the first time in nearly six years,
a cabinet member has taken to exer-
cising on the White House tennis courts.
MISS Eleanor Wilson is responsible, and
Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo is the
member of her fathers official family
who has disclosed his fondness for the
game that was so popular during the
Roosevelt administration. During the
presidency of the White House by Pres
ideht Taft, tennis lost its vogue as an
administration game and golf supplant-
ed it. While President Wilson's inclina
ton also leans toward golf, the Misses
Wilson are enthusiastic devotees of the
racquet and net.

muller on the soup spoon and the kibosh
on the joke about the soup-eater whose

chestra. A fluted, serrated spoon, guar
anteed to work noiselessly in the hands
of the most violent soup slipper, is on
exhibition at the national convention
here of retail jewellers.
