COMBINE To
BEAT HUGHES
AND ROOSEVELT 7
G. o. p. ALLIANCE FOR ROOT
FIRST, STAMPEDE TO HUGHES
THE ONLY FEAR. BURTON, FAIR
BANKS OR SHERMAN SECOND.

Chicago, May 31.-A combination is
said to have been formed carrying into
it between 525 and $40 republican ma
tional de!egates-that precludes the
nomination of either Theodore Roose-
welt or Justice Hughes.
This report is receiving circumstan-
tial confederation with the arrival of
each state leader and delegate.
1t is a combination that can be shat
tered only by stampede to Justice
Hughes, that must be of sufficient pro-
portions to nominate him on the sec
ond ballot.
Only Chance for T. r.
Colonel Roosevelt's own nomination
is now held to be improbable by the
engineers of the combination and only
possible at the end of a protracted
deadlock forced by the failure of the
alleged combination to agree within
its own ranks if it shall have sue
ceeded in the avowed policy of elm
mating Hughes not later than the sec
ond ballot.
Elihu Root is the first choice of the
active leaders who have perfected this
combination through a year of careful
maneuvers. Their second choice is
Theodore f. Burton, Charles w. Fair
banks, or Lawrence Y. Sherman, not
necessarily in this order.
John w. Weeks figures strongly, but
the thoroughly posted men do not be
lieve that he can command sufficient
strength to land him within striking
distance of the nomination. Philander
c. Knox will have certain considera-
ton as a dark horse. '--' NJ
Sweep to Hughes Perils.
The immediate policy Is to stop a
sweep to Hughes that will give to him
the nomination at the outset of the
baloting. The secondary policy is to
nominate one of the first four men
named.
1t Is probably true that the man
ayers of this combination look for
substantial aid from Colonel Roose-
welt in sideswiping the Hughes boom;
If the movement toward the justice
gets to anything like landslide proper
tions. the hope is deeply founded that
| the colonel will say something that
| will put the justice out of commission
as a winner
South Uninstructed.
For the first time in many repub-
llcan national conventions, the delega-
tions from the south come in without
| instructions. Nearly all are in the
combination. Former Postmaster Cen
eral Hitchcock has picked out dele
gates here and there, who will be for
Hughes. if all surface indications are
borne out. Roosevelt has the entire
state of Georgia if his delegates are
seated, with scattering delegates in
other southern states.
All that the leader Of each southern
state wants is to land with the nom
inee. All that he has at stake is the
federal patronage with a republican
administration in power at Washing
ton.

DIR. T. H. CLOVER

Some form of drug Treatment has
been the only method Of coping with
disease for so great a period that the
great majority Of people never think
of anything else in sudden or acute
illness. Those who have sought
osteopathy for the first time have
been mainly people who have never
completely recovered from some acute
illness or some past injury.
They have come TO the osteopathic
physician because. having heard that
his profession is based upon his know
ledge OF the human anatomy. they be-
ieve that he may be able TO repair the
body machine.
Many people are coming TO under
stand why manipulative treatmenb
given by doctor who has made TIE
human body his life study, viii cure SO
many ailments that few years ago
were considered incurabIe.
Most people, however are not as yet
aware that sudden, or acute illness, Is
caused by the body needing repair Just
as are chrenic troubles, and are much
more readily amenable to treatment
than are chronic diseases; IN spite Of
the fast that osteopathy has shown
brilliant results in so many long stand
ing cases.
The opinion seems to be prevalent
that osteopathic treatment Is given
only at the Office; in consequence many
people decide to take treatment as soon
as they are able TO go TO the Office.
This is a very erroneous idea.
1t is of course necessary In sickness
OF any kind where the patient is con-
fined to the bed, or is unable TO come
to the office, that the osteopath visit
the patient IN the home or hospital.
1t is necessary many times, to see the
patient every day or several times
each day, if very il, until there is
improvement
In the past few years, wherever
osteopathy Is known, people have
learned that acute disease VIII yield
readily to osteopathic treatment where
the physician is called early IN the dis
ease instead Of a last resort and after
other doctor have given up hopes Of, the
patients recovery
1t only seems reasonable that If the
body which ordinarily runs smoothly
suddenly ceases its normal fanctioning,
and becomes acutely i'll that there is
some anatomical reason, in other words,
has some mechanical arrangement
which interiors with the chemistry OF
the body, rendering it susceptible to
invasion of disease
This is exactly what happens and it is
the business of the osteopath as a skill
ed anatomist to repair the trouble,
restore the normal blood and never
supply to the diseased organs or tissues
By accomplishing this health is re-
tored.

Report on Dental Examination of the
HBYs Public School.
Two hundred and forty-nine children
were examined. Following is the tabu-
lated result of the examination:
General condition of the mouth, Good
Sc, Fair 143, Bad 20.
Abcesses, "a.
Number of children whose teeth need
cleaning, 223.
Number of children who use the tooth
brush, Ill.
Malocclusions, 70.
Number of teeth needing extraction,
287.
Number of cavities needing atten-
ton, 1872.
Less than half the children examined
use the tooth brush. Perhaps a large
number of those who reported using
the tooth brush do not use it regularly
or effectively. Occasional or careless
use of the brush is little better than
not using it at all. In addition to the
daily care of the teeth. every child
should visit the dentist at least twice a
year for examination of the mouth, and |
whatever work is needed should be done /
without delay, c. A. Shively, Supt. |

Americas great prosperity IS in it
self responsible for the high cost of
living" This is the dictum OF Mr.. Won
Engelken, director of the United
States mint And there can be no
doubt but Mr.. Won Engelken is correct
in this deduction. 1t is an economic
rule, which apparently las ne s1ssp-
tons, that prosperity and high prices
always walk together. But the trouble
with a condition OF affairs is that the
high prices which comes with a great
wave of prosperity and lay their heavy
hands on a great multitude of the peo-
pie, the consumers, who seldom and
even indirectly reap any pecuniary ad-
vantanges from the prosperity They
merely get the disadvantages of its
high prices.

Congre ssman Connolly asks all of
those voters for whom he has stood to
stand by him now. In that case We
would suggest to Mr.. Connolly that he
run for congress in the state of South
Carolina since he voted for a tariff bill
that took the duties off the corn, oats,
wheat, wool. meat, dairy products, hay
and potatoes, raised by Kansas farmers
but placed protective duties on rice,
cotton, tobacco and Angora goat hair,
which are products of South Carolina.
We can see no reason why Kansas
voters should stand by him, but he has
certainly been good to, South Carolina
and the voters of that state have every
reason to stand by him.-Downs News.
Benton, the Efficient
Probably no new congressional mem
Der from the west will enter upon his
duties more thoroughly trained in bust
ness methods or better equipped in
every way to tackle whatever specific
duty is placed upon him than Mr.. Otis
L. Benton, the Republican nominee
From boyhood Benton has approached
every obstacle with a determination to
surmount it, and he has generally sue
ceeded when others have become dis
couraged and quit. When he needs in
formation on any subject he studies and
delves until he masters it; then he ap-
plies what he has gained by study to the
of the task that called
for special preparation. There is no
escaping the persuasive, persistent
pursuit of Mr.. Benton if he needs your
help. His exceptional qualifications for
public service are sure to be recognized
when he gets down to Washington and
he will be put to work as soon as he
arrives. The Sixth Kansas district will
be on the map again when Benton is

after an estimated loss OF $4,000
was incurred.
Famed ny brisk wind, the blaze
quickly spread from barber shop In

was burned to the ground. and before
anything could be done the adjoining
places had caught hre, including q

Probably the largest individual loss
was the burning of M. L. Heiner's dry
