Hodges. Allen and Scott should
lead a clean-cut fight in Kansas this
fall on party principles and records,
according to E. L. Barrier, former
member of the legislature from
Greenwood county. Scott clearly rep
resents the fundamental and tradi-
tional principles OF the Republican
party and would be q logical man to
defend the Republican party in the
1914 gubernatorial race, according to
Barrier, who is q staunch Progress
sive.
I'VE want a clear issue in Kansas
this year." said Barrier. who was
chairman of the live stock committee
In the house during the 1911 legisla-
tive session. "Scott has the courage
of his convictions and would be a log
ical man to run against Allen. Then
there would be a clean-cut fight be-
tween the Progressives. Republicans
and Democrats for test OF party
strength in the state. That is the
way many farmers In my county feel
about the matter. I am farmer and

BABIES NOT MAILABLE
Department Holds They Are Barred
From Parcel Post.

Washington, Feb. 13.-Babies are not
mailable. Tho postoffice department
30 holds in an edict today barring them
from parcel post.
The question arose over a request by
the postmaster at Stratford. Ok, for
a ruling by the department as to
whether a patron Of his office could
send q two year old child by parcel post
from Twin Falls, Idaho. to Stratford.
The postmaster was greatly puzzled be-
cause he could find nothing in the reg
ulations covering such a case. So he
referred 1t to postoffice department.
1t was the first time the authorities
here had been asked to rule upon the
question and 1t caused a mild sensation.
"A hurried consultation OF officials re-
suited and after reference to the parcel
post regulations it was discovered that
the Oklahoma postmaster was right
that there was nothing in them cover
ing such a case.
Second Assistant Postmaster Cen
eral Stewart therefore decided that all
human beings and live animals were
barred from the mails. The one ex-
ception. however. is the queen bee
which is the only living creature that
can enjoy the privileges OF the parcel
post.

Hours.

New York. Feb. 1S.-Fifty fires in
New York between the hours Of Z D.

the history Of the city. No lives were
lost but hundreds are suffering from
exposure.
In many cases people dashed out
into the cold without waiting to dress
or find out whether there was any
danger. A fire in a six story apart

establishment and thirty families
drove 200 scantily clothed tenants into
the street. The fire itself was trivial.
