STONE CHARGES
FIXED PROGRAM
Declares The Republicans Are Great
ing Distrust In Country On
Tariff Issue
SITES R. G. DUNN BULLETIN
Stone Is From Missouri And Makes
Most Serious Accusation Thus
Far Bought Out

By Congressman Clyde H. Tavenner.
Washington August 8-The charge
that it is a part of the fixed pro-
gram of the Republican side of this
(Senate) chamber to create a wide
spread impression and fear through
out the country of coming disaster,
with houe of precipitating industrial
and commercial conditions that will
rebond to their party and political
advantage" has been made by Sena-
tor Stone, of Missouri, constituting
the most serious accusation brought
out in the tariff debate.
Senator Stone was reused by the
continuing Republican "arguments''
of hard times to follow the passage
OF the observation-disclosures tariff bill.
When he struck, it was straight from
the shoulder.
Mr.. President" he began this
chamber seems to have within it's
walls a number of prophets of evil,
croaking evangels of disaster. The
atmosphere we breathe has become
impregnated with the malodor of
direful prophecy. 1t seems as if our
friends on the other side, or many Of
them at least are hungering for a
panic. They are doing everything in
! their power to create distrust.
) Every senator on that side who
rises to speak has blue tale of woe
to tell, made up for the most part
OF dOleful prophecies of certain dis
asters to come. | submit, Mr.. Presi-
dent, that it is not the spirit or the
tone Of that true Americanism that
should find expression be but one
great underlying purpose behind this
continuing story of evil prophecy,
and that is to lreate distrust, artifi-
cially, and to bring about state of
industrial depression that may re-
dound to the advantage of the Repub-
lican party, on the theory that if
something bad should happen the
Democratic party must answer for it
and that the Republican party would
be benefited in some corresponding
degree. All we hear now are tales of
woe"
Senators Warren and Gallinger
were quick to reply to this charge, but
Stone flung back at them,
If I were disposed to go far
enough at this time to express my
real convictions l might say that the
first fluttering of any industrial dis
turbances so far is the result of a
deliberate purpose, if not deliberate
conspiracy, on the part of certain
men representing important inter-
ests in this country to create a dis
trrbance."
The Senator, however, declared
that the conspiracy will not be sue
cessful, and to back up this state
ment he quoted from the last bulle-
tin issued r. G.. Dunn e Co., the scien-
t;fc and nonpartisan mercantile
agency, as follows:
Fall business is opening with
every indication of sustained
boom. Merchants who hesitated plac-
ing extensive orders because of pend
ing tariff legislation have been
forced to make heavy purchases be-
cause of unexpected demands. The
impetus foreshadOws great and pros

L0zIER ANNOUNCES
p" new 1914 MODEL
To Be Four Cylinder, Seven Passen-
ger Car Selling At Twenty One
Hundred Dollars
DELIVERIES MADE JANUARY 1ST
Preliminary Announcement Made To
District Managers Throughout
United States
DELIVERIES MADE JANUARY 1ST

Probably the most important de-
velopment of the week in the auto
mobile industry, was the announce
ment made to dealers on Tuesday by
the Lozier Motor Company, of a new
four cylinder Lozier for 1914 produc-
ton.
The car is in the popular-priced
field and will sell at $4,000. The
action of the Lozier Company in
again bringing out a four-cylinder
car after having built skies exclu-
sively, for the last two years is caus-
ing wide comment in trade circles.
"We decided to make our new mo-
del Four Immediately after making
up our minds to enter the lower-priced
field" said President Gilbert in his adj
dress to Lozier dealers. "In the rush
to produce six-cylinder cars at low
figure the fact has been overlooked
by many makers that there is a
limit to the price at which really ef-
ficient SKIES can be marketed.
AT $4,000 we knew that we
could build four cylinder car fully
up to the Lozier standard. At the
same price, we also realized a six
|cylinder car should be built, but of
an altogether different grad than the
Lozier Company has ever manufac-
tured. We wished to give the public
the benefit of our fifteen years. ex-
perience in building both fours and
skies, and we chose the tour-cyfinder
model. '.'.
Furthermore, while many auto
mobile manufacturers are straining
every effort to produce six-cylinder
cars, there is great and unsatisfied
demand for the better type of four
cylinder car. We propose to answer
this demand with the new Lozier
Four"

a marked degree the popular Lozier

SWELTER IN HEAT
Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma
Get No Relief From Rec
ord Drought.

Kansas City, Mo-. Aug. 15.-Kansas.
Missouri and Oklahoma yesterday
sweltered under the 18th day OF ter
rife heat which has paralyzed
crops, caused water famines, and been
responsible for extreme suffering
among the people and the 1--we stock
of the three states.
Local showers in Kansas failed TO
affect the general temperature, which
again reached an average maximum
above 100 degrees. In many places
the mercury climbed to 10s, and few
stations reported temperatures lower
than 100.
A half inch OF rain fell In Topeka
yesterday afternoon, causing the tenn
perature to drop % degrees in II min
utes, but an hour later the mercury
had climbed up to the maximum OF
the day. The shower was confined to
q territory less than a mile square
For sustained heat, the present hot
spell has broken all Kansas records,
and this summer has been the dryest
in the history OF the state. Since the
drought began early in May, when the
thermometer rose TO 100 degrees, hot
waves have followed with such brief
cool periods intervening that the ex-
ceptional heat has been almost con-
tinuous.
Late crops have been practically de-
Etroyed in parts Of the state.

THE GOLD Was THERE.

But Mark Twain Missed It by JUS
One Pail of Water.
With Steve Gf1lis, a printer of whom
he was fond, Mark Twain went up
into Calaveras county to a cabin OF
Jackass hill, where Steye's brother
Jim. q lovable, picturesque character
(the Truthful James of Bret Harte),
owned mining claims. Mark decided
TO spend his vacation in pocket min
ing and soon added that science to his
store Of knowledge. 1t was halcyon,
happy three months that he fingered
there. One day with Jim ellis he
was following the specks Of gold that
led to pocket somewhere up the hill
when q chill, dreary rain set in. jim
was washing and Clemens was carry
ing water. The "color" became better
and better as they assembled, and Gil
lis, possessed with the mining passion,
would have gone on regardless OF the
rain. Clemens, however, protested and
declared that each pail of water was
his last. Finally he said in his delib-
crate, drawing fashion:
oAA4y i WIN carly any A1AOiC
This work is too disagreeable. Let's
go to the house and wait till it clears

. ellis had inst taken out a pan of
earth.
Bring one more pail, SAM" he plead
ed.
1T won't do II, Jim! Not a dropi
Not If / knew there was a million
dollars in that PAM"
They left the pan standing there and
went over to Angels camp, which was
nearer than their own cabin. The
rain kept on. and they sat around the
grocery and barroom smoking and tell
ing stories to pass the time
Meanwhile the rain had washed
away the top of the pan Of earth left
standing on the slope Of Jackass hill
and exposed n handful Of nuggets

along and, observing IT. had sat down
10 wait until the thirty day claim
notice posted by Jim ellis should ex-
pire. They did not mind the rain--not
with that gold in sight-and the min
ute the thirty days were up they fol-
lowed the lead few pans farther and
took out $4,000 in all. 1t was a good
pocket. Mark Twain missed it by one

Washington, D. c., Aug. 15.-When
Miss Julia c. Lathrop of Chicago came
to Washington a year or so ago to
take charge of the children's bureau
in the department of labor, a good
many people wondered just what she
was going to do to earn her salary of
$4,000 year.
Miss Lathrop never said very much
about what she was going to do; and
since coming here she hasn't taken
the public very much into her conf
dence. But she has been busy, very
busy, with the problem of infant NOR
tality especially, and now she has
broken her long silence and issued a
pamphlet Of 100 pages.
Miss Lathrop would like to give ev-
cry girl and woman in the nation a
copy, because in this pamphlet she
tells of some ways to save the babies.
But with limited funds she could have
only 1000 copies printed. These are
being sent to health officers in vii
lagos, towns and cities throughout the
United States.
One Of Miss Lathrop's first acts on
becoming chief of the children's bu-
reau was to send letters to the mayors
OF the 100 cities in this country hav-
ing a population of more than $4,000.
She wanted to know what these cities
were doing to save babies.
The replies from the 100 mayors
convinced her that there was plenty
of work for her to do. While in some
cities big things we're being done, re-
markable results being accomplished,
in others there was no baby-saving
work at all
From the information gained
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1913-08-15

through her correspondence with the
mayors, Miss Lathrop wrote her PAM
phlet. In it she has told what may be
done to save babies, what is being
done, and what it is that makes for
the present high baby death rate.
THE principal impeachment to eff
cient work in the health departments
of most cities" writes Miss Lathrop,
sis the lack of adequate funds to pay
a suitable salary to the health officer
or to provide means for carrying on
preventive measures intelligently.
GAS a general rule" she continues,
"the most effective health service is
not accomplished when the annual re-
sources of the health department, in
GLIDING the salary of the health Off
Ger, fall much below 81 per capita of
population"
Miss Lathrop received a letter from
the clerk of the board of health in a
city with a population of nearly 700,.
600, in which he says: The health
department has no funds available for
organizing a division for the care of
infants"
Another letter received by Miss
Lathrop from the health officer in a
city with a population of nearly 200,
900, says: I'VE have ben unable to
get an appropriation from the city
council for carrying on summer cam
paign against infant mortality"
the expenditure of more money by
cities on their health departments
and shows plainly that lack of mon
ey is the chief cause for the bah!
| death rate.
