Seattle, Wash, November 17.-Fiery
speeches were made in the American Fed

1utions demanding a congressional inves-
tfgation and calling for contributions for
the support of the strikers were adopted.

Whereas the mine owners have ignored

Pittsburg, Kan, Feb. S.-George

ed of being implicated in the murder

BROOM PLANTS
Brush Growers i'm Kansas May
Market Own Product.
Prices Forced Down by Com
binatiOn, They Say.

Syracuse Kan, Feb S.-Broom corn
growers in the southwest Kansas coun-
ties have decided the only solution OF
the market situation is series OF
broom factories. Broom corn is pc
coming one of the most important
crops in this region but growers al
lege the more important the crop be-
comes the more ironcIad grows the
combination of buyers to make the
market low
Three years ago brush brought 500
a ton. Last season from 500 to $I9O.
This year, with the largest and best
crop on record, but from $40 to SOU IS
being paid The price has steadily gone
down regardless of the number of buy
ers. in the field. The crop is an ex-
pensive one to raise and is generally
grown on capital borrowed to be paid
back when the brush is ripe.
The result is buyers can easily hold
out till growers force growers to sell
Leading growers here allege fully 20
600 growers will lose heavily on the
crop this year, because of trust opera
tions, when q few Independent rae
tories could have bought their crop at
a handsome profit to them.

OBJECT TO NAMES
People i'm sRailrOadless" COun-
ties Call Towns sOutlandish.'
eastern Historical Fanatics
in Bad in Western Kansas.

Richfield, Kan, Feb. S.-Consider-
able adverse sentiment has developed
in the formerly "railroadless' coun-
ties on the Santa Fe'S new Colmor
cutoff to the So-considered "outland-
ish'' names chosen and proposed for
the towns along the route. People
near Sublette, one of the new towns,
for example, dislike such name,
even thought Captain Sublette was
one of the greatest buffalo hunters
through this section in the early days.
Likewise, persons near Satanic dislik e
the towns name despite the fact it
commentaries a most prominent In
dian chief who fought the battles of
his race against the inroads of the
white men.
These names, together with Mon
tezuma, Moscow and Ensign, have
been borne without organized pro-
test but the recent announcement
that the Santa Fe intends to name two
new places Rolla and Jedediah is
bringing forth serious objections all
over the southwest quarter of the
state. Residents of this section say
they should have the privilege of
naming their future cities instead of
leaving it to eastern historical
fanatics.

DOCTOR GUILTY OF "sLAvERY.'
l.. b. Woodward Admits Taking To-
peka Girl to Kansas City.

Kansas City, Feb. S.-Dr. L. B.
Woodward, alias J. B. Jones, who was
arrested last December in a rooming
house, while in the company of
Frances Huddleson, a waitress, Is
years old, and charged with infraction
of the white slave law, pleaded guilty
here. He was sentenced to three
months in the Jackson county Jail at
Warrensburg, Mo-, and required to pay
the court costs by Judge Mcpherson
of the United States district court. He
was unable to pay the costs, so an ad-
dition month was added to his SEN
tence.
Woodward was charged with Undue
ing the girl who had been a servant
in his house at Minneapolis, Kan. to
come to Kansas City with him for i'm
moral purposes. His relations with
her caused his wife to leave him.
The HuddleSon girl was working
as waitress in a Topeka restaurant.
Woodward is a veterinary surgeon. His
time in Jail since his arrest will be
taken from his sentence.

PLAIN DRESSES FOR GRADUATES
Fair Ones Not to Display Fine Feath-
erS at Exercises.

Salina, Kan, Feb. S.-The mothers
of the girl members of the gradual
ing class of the high school had an
inning and evidently scored their
point, or rather helped the high school
management to score.
The matter of graduation dresses was
discussed in detail and it was decided
that the costumes of the sweet girl
graduates would be simplified to
great extent. The dresses came in for
most of the discussion and suffered
most. They will have to be of plain
material and white. According to the
decision the style of the dresses can
be either one or two piece and there
can be some trimming in the way of
meager insertion but there can be
nothing lavish in the decorating.
The shoes were not discussed al
though white will prevail. The mat
ter of gloves will probably cause some
irregularity. 1t was decided that long
white gloves of no specified material
could be worn with short sleeves.
The senior girls are somewhat pro-
voked about the ruling but the de-
cision will stick and there will be no
concessions made

Atchison, Kan, Feb. S.-Mayor
Walker has notified owners of the
five moving picture and vaudeville
houses to close on Sundays. The no
tees were received this morning and
have been the subject of discussion all
day The owner of one house says he
will give free show and pass the hat,
and thus evade any possibility of
prosecution under the Sunday labor
law. Another says he has been ad-
vised by prominent people to disre-
gard the order.
Something over a year ago a vigor-
Gus attempt was made to close the
picture houses on Sundays Ward
Chatburn stood trial for keeping open
and was acquitted by a district court
jury. Tom Moxcey, then county at

on the ruling that Chatburn wasn't
entitled to trial by jury. This appeal

MULLINS GIVES $4,000 BOND.
w. S. Roarl< Will Defend Geary Coun
ty Man on Murder Charge

Junction City, Kan. Feb. 8.-W. s.
Roark, formerly of Topeka, has been
retained by w. o. Mullins, of this city,
who was arrested at Alma on Tuesday
charged with being an accessory to
the murder of Anthony King. Mr..
Roark has raised the required bond
of $4,000 to secure his clients re-
lease. No bond has been arranged for
Paul Roberts, under arrest on the
same charge.
Anthony King was killed in his
restaurant at Alta Vista one Septem
Der night and Roberts was arrested,
charged with the crime. When his
case was called at Alma it was dis
missed at the request of County At
torney Oscar Schmitz. Another war
rant was Immediately sworn to by the
widow of King, charging Roberts with
the murder and w. o. Mullins with
being an accessory before the fact.
By this move the state gains two
important points in its prosecution.
The charges aginst both men are the
same, and in case they are bound over,
the state has until next fall to perfect
it's case.
The preliminary hearing will be
held before Justice Lyon at Alma, on
February 10.

attribute, flecks of the rough, discolored
or blemished skin. The worn-out cuticIe
comes off just like dandruff on diseased
