were made today by State Auditor w.
E. Davis when he asked for five per
cent. of the total tax collection, or
$179, 302.52 Drafts for ten or fifteen per
cent. Of the 1918 taxes will be drawn
on the treasurers in December to take
care of the unprotected bills for the
current year.
1t will not be necessary to stamp

funds" according to the belief of state
house officials. But with the existing
shortage of funds, the state will have
one of the closest calls in several years.
1t Is not unusual, however, to draw on
the county treasurers in December FOR
a portion Of the current tax collection
and this policy will be observed this
year.
The tax levy for 1913 should raise 3d.

SHOREY CONNECTIONS
Street Car Co. VIII Make Them Close
as Possible.

Following petitions for through car
service over the Shorey street car
tracks, the Topeka Street Railway
company today advised the public
utilities commission that they would
make number of changes in their
present plan Of handling the Shorey
business The complaints will be ad-
justed without a formal order from
the commission.
Several weeks ago petitions were
filed with the utilities commission re-
citing that no transfer station Is pro-
vided at Kansas avenue and Morris
street and that patrons of the street
car company are compelled to stand
in the rain and storms waiting for
cars. They asked that through serv-
ice over the Kansas avenue lines be
provided for Shorey patrons, avoid
ing the necessity of transfers.
Answering this petition. the street
railway recited that the Shorey line
does not meet expenses and that good
service is provided by the seven-min-
ute North Topeka schedules. How
ever, the street railway will place
Shorey signs on their connecting cars
and will hold cars at the Garfield
park station until time for close con-
nections with the Shorey cars.

THOSE RESOLUTIONS,
They Commit Bull MoOsers to Fight
to q Finish.

After two hours of oratory in which
the Progressive party leaders made
clear and plain that they would reject
all harmony propositions from the Re-
publicans. they passed resolutions and
went home. That was the extent of the
meeting. There was considerable en-
thusiasm. some good speeches and a
crowd Of about $50 people from over the
state. The meeting which had for its
purpose the blocking of the harmony
movement. was perhaps not without
some results.
Many state house officials, both Re-
publicans and Democrats, attended the
meeting and watched the fight on the
harmony plan with much interest.
Rousing speeches by w. r. Stubbs and
Henry J. Allen put the Bull Moos-
ers on edge and there were frequent
demonstrations that looked for all the
world like the genuine article. Every
time a speaker raped a Republican
or administration Democrat. there was
q war whoop from the Third party fol-
lowers that Jared the building And
when Allen and White and Stubbs in
sured the Bull Moosers that there
would never, no never, be room enough
in the same party or on the same plat
form for the men who fought the
Roosevelt electors and the Progressives
of today. the out of town visitors
wanted to break the furniture as an
evidence Of JOY.
All the time the Democratic ap-
pointees from the state house stood on
the side lines and grinned They
wanted to urge the Progressives' fight
ing spirit to higher pitch. but didn't
feel that 1t would be proper.
The resolutions committee worked
while the Bull Moose orators talked TO
the crowd. 1t was a big job that con-
fronted the men who drafted the reso-
buttons. At the morning session of the
committee, there was a division as to
the wording Of the declaration of prin-
ciples and It was the middle of the aft
ernoon before the brief. snappy doc
ument was submitted to the conven-
ton. The Progressives yelled and
stamped their feet when the resolutions
were read and passed them unanimous
ly. Then Henry ]. Allen made a speech
and the meeting was over.
The resolutions were as follows:
Nothing has occurred since the Pro-
gressive convention in Chicago to war
rant any change in the viewpoint on the
part of the Progressives. At that time

TODAY'S MARKET REPORTS.

Chicago. Nov. n-wHEAT-A small
rally on covering by shorts after a weak
opening was the feature Of the wheat
market this forenoon. First prices were
unchanged to Nc lower becausesof favor
able Argentine reports, but buying Of De-
cember, which was active yesterday, was
resumed on scale that caused q reaction
in that option to a1ittle Abo4e ysSterday's
close. Other months stead1ed at about
the last final prices.
Afterward the market eased because Of
reports officially showing the Argentine
loss was very small. The close was weak
at a ness loss of x@kc.
CORN-Offerings and demand were both
light in the corn pit at first but an i'm
proved inquiry lifted values later a small
amount above the opening which was a
shade lower to a. shade higher.
Later the market broke sharply on fore
cast Of better weather. The close was
easy, A@zc to nc net lower.
OATS-Oats under light trade opened
unchanged to a shade on and steadied at
that range.
PROVISIONS-Buying Of January pork,
which lifted its price to yesterdays close
after going NC lower, was the feature
of an otherwise dull market in which the
whole list at the start was a shade to TIC
of.

Sew york stocS Market.

Wal lSt., New York, Nov. N.-STOCKS-
Although speculation languished again to-
day the market showed Improvement by
comparison with the preceding session.
The tendency was downward for a time.
but the course Of prices was reversed
later. The exceptionally favorable ma
ture of the cotton ginning report, with
its implication OF good business for south
ern railroads and the better tone of the
investment market as attested by the
quick success of recent offerings Of bonds
and notes. tended to improve sentiment
and moderate buying readily checked the
decline. The scarcity OF stocks for cover
ing facilitated the upturn, and the leaders
all moved upward fractionally with the
copper making full recovery.
Bonds easy.
Weakness Of New Haven. which declined
IL, was the conspicuous feature Of today's
opening: fluctuations otherwise were
small. except for a drop of a point in In
ternational Harvester. There was some
further pressure on AmalgamAteA which
receded y. Among the active stocks as
a whole. however, the movement was al
most imperceptfb1e.
The market closed easy. The small ad-
vance established among railroad shares
were eliminated by the slow downward
movement. The 3 point fail in New Haven
and news that reduction of working
forces, such as. has been in progress
among steel companies was spreading to
various other industries, Influenced some
selling.

The ripened past for future years:
How should I live with yesterday,
Transformed into tomorrow?
Would purer. motive give to will q
surer bent;
Might intellect more clear perfect its
bold intent;
More helpful wisdom should gain,
More nobly live-more self disclaim:
II but my haunting yesterdays
Were still unwrought tomorrows?
Could 1 rejoice in fairer hopes than
those agone;
Might hear love sing in my heart
a sweeter song:
II all the joy crowned wondrous days
Which light the space 'twixt sorrows
If all my throbbing yesterdays
Were changed to strange tomorrows:
Though coming hours hold visions.
touched by spell divine
The past, with clinging tenderness
hold as mine:
I would not lose the melody
Experience has sung to me;
1 would not have my yesterday
Transformed into tomorrow.
