WHEN TO LIGHT AUTO LAMPS.
Question is Settled by the New Au-
tomobiIe Road Law.

The question as to when automo-
bilelamps should be lighted was fix
ed by the last legislature, in section
9 of senate bill 239, which reads
as follows:>
Every motor vehicle while in use
on public highways shall be pro-
vided with good and sufficient brakes
and also with a suitable bell, horn
or other signal, and shall have ex-
hibited during the period from one
half hour after sunset to one-half
hour before sunrise, one or more
lamps showing white lights visible
within a reasonable distance from
the direction toward which such
vehicle is proceeding, and red light
visible from the reverse direction
The law took effect on its publ
cation in the statute book which was
about a month ago.

HARMONY MEETING
BEGAN TODAY
Large Crowd of Former Regulars
and Progressives.
FORGET ALL PAST TROUBLES
Decided That All Former Leaders
Are to Be Left Out-NO More
Third Party In the Sum
flower State.

Topeka, June 3.-More than 200
delegates are here, about half OF
which voted for Roosevelt last year
and the rest for Taft. The van
guard held an informal meeting last
night and discussed the proposition
of the conference and the writing
of a provisional platform for next
years campaign.
From the reports gathered in the
milling" at the hotels it is indi-
Gated that there are as many former
Progressive delegates here as regd-
lar Republicans. T. D. Smith OF
Hiawatha declared that eleven OF
the sixteen delegates from Brown
county voted for Roosevelt last year.
Four delegates from Graham coun-
ty are here. three Of which voted
for the third party last fall. Dele
gates from at least dozen other
counties said that their delegations
are about equally divided as to
alignment last year.
The informal meeting was presid-
ed over by Ed. Mullaney OF Hill
City. Mullaney was formerly a
Roosevelt delegate to the Republi-
can national convention.
"The platform we are talking of
enacting tomorrow" said Mullaney,
"'must be progressive"
Senator Mabin Of Smith doubted
whether a complete platform could
now be written for next year or the
campaign of 1916, but he held prop
ositions like changing the basis OF
representation at the Republican ma
tional convention and changes in
selecting delegates should be declar-
ed for: "But If the majority declares
platform l will stand for 1t and
fight for It," he said.
Among those who had arrived
yesterday the absence of the stand
pat and progressive leaders who had
aroused the liveliest personal antag-
onism was conspicuous. The senti-
ment openly voiced by the Shawnee
county young Republicans a month
or two ago that the only possible
hope Of harmony is the ditching Of
some Of the old-time factional lead
ers on both sides seemed to be fa-
vorably considered by many OF the
delegates.
Among the members Of the recent
legislature who are here are Repre-
sentative Charles s. Holbrook,
heading Roosevelt Progressive in
Wyandotte county last year; Senator
1. NJ. Mahin of Smith, author of the
now famous Mahin liquor law;
Representative Henry LANG OF Rus
sell county and Representative ]. M.
Gilman Of Leavenworth county.
The conference was called toseth-
err by Senator James A. Troutman
Of Topeka.

Washington, June 3.-The house
Democrats in caucus today restricted
the legislative program OF the pres
emit extra session to tariff, currency,
emergency appropriations and cleo
ton cases. Committee assignments
as submitted by Chairman Under
wood and his colleagues of the ways
and means committee majority were
adopted by thp caucus without
change.
The legislative programme as
presented by Representative Under

draw up the tariff schedules are,

tically agreed that meats and flour
will go on the free list in the Dem
Ocratic tariff law II the recommen-
dalton of the senate finance sub
committee in charge of the agri-
cultural schedule is accepted. This
important alteration Of the Under
wood ais 1t passed the house was de-
termined upon today by the sub
committee composed Of Senators Will
Hams, Shively and Gore. 1t was de-
cided, in carrying out the determin-
alton to perfect the Underwood bill,
by equalizing raw materials and
their products that 1t would be wiser
to levyEnominal duties on meats and
flour products than to put live stock
and grain on the free list.
In accordance with this decision
the subcommittee in revising the
schedule, took from the free list in
the house bill fresh meats-beef,
mutton and portland made them
dutiable at 10 per cent advalorem.
Wheat flour was restored to the
dutiable list at the specific rate Of
% cents a barrel with other wheat
products at 10 per cent ad valorem.
Cattle, sheep and hogs will stand
as they are in the proposed bill,
dutiable at 10 per cent ad valorem,
and the Underwood duty Of 10 cents
q bushel on wheat will stand.
These recommendation will be
made to the finance committee prob
ably late this week and the senators
