A PIONEER PROGRESSIVE

Americans whose memory of political events III back twenty years
will remember when William A. PETER, then United States senator from
Kansas, was the most ridiculed mar in the country Lght-minded folk
who disagreed with him made fun of his flowing beard. Those OF a
serious turn held him up to scorn as a hare-brained crank. And all the
jibes and jeering was due to the fact that he "a a progressive in the
days when a progressive a a rarity.
1t ws PETER, "the bewhiskered Popuist" who in Kansas began a
fight for a direct primary popular vote for United States senator, a public
utilities commission, state control of railroads, prohibition Of railroad
rebates and rate discrimination and the adoption of the initiative and
referendum.
AS a United States senator this same PETER introduced an amendment
providing for the direct election of senators and a bill calling TO postal
savings banks. He also proposed amendments to the interstate COM
merce act that several years later we're adopted and are o in sue
cessful operation.
1t was for such service in behalf of the people that PETER a rd-
culed from ne end of the land to the other and as finally laughed out
of public life But he sowed the good seed, and the consolation of
knowing that his work was not i'll vain, for he lived to set another gen.
Grafton take up his principles and make them a power in the nation.
TODAY Kansas has the laws for which he Tough. postal savings banks
are in operation in hundreds of cities, many states have direct legSla-
ton, most states choose their senator's by popular vote, and the railroads
are now subject, instead Of superior, to law.
When the roll OF martyrs of the progressive movement is made up
the nan of William A. PETER should appear we'll up on the list. he
gave the best years of his life to the people, and but for his efforts the
better day that is now dawning Nigh. still be a dream of the future.

THE WORLDS LARGEST TYPEWRITER

One of the most conspicuous exhibits at the Panama-Pacihc EXPOSE
ton is a typewriter of gigantic proportions, 1I2S times larger than a
standard machine, say a writer in The Scientific American:
1T is not merely a colossal image, but a working model that actually
writes; and during the exposition it will type news bulletins o a sheet
of paper nine feet wide, in letters three inches high and two inches
apart. The monster machine will be operated by electrical connection
with a typewriter of standard dimensions. For instance, o n depressing
a key OF the smaller machine the corresponding key of the large machine
will respond. A lever is used for the return of the carriage and for line
spacing or rotating the cylinder. The big machine weighs fourteen tons
IS against thirty pounds, which is the weight of a standard machine. 1t is
twenty-one feet wide, in action, by fifteen feet high, and requires for its
operation a room measuring twenty-five feet by thirty by twenty-five
feet The platen nine feet, six inches long, by tweny-one inches in
diameter, weighs 1900 pounds, and the carriage $500 pounds. Each
key-cup, which is the part OF a typewriter that is pressed by the fingers,
is seven inches in diameter, while each type-bar is hfytwo inches long
and weighs as much as a standard typewriter This mammoth type
writer has been under construction for about two years and cost
100000.

This conclusion of the Washington government that army trans

pines is positively shocking
1t is against the law rs interpreted by Old Ship Subsidy. 1t Is

policy as laid down by the vocierous patriots who fought the Ship
Purchase Bill to death.
