Brother Tom Wasn't q Tightwad.

John McElwain went to Oklahoma
City from California to visit his
rother Thomas, whom he had not
seen for 20 years. Having arrived in
the night, he had his brothers house
pointed out to him but did not awak-
en- the family.
John was accustomed to sleeping
out of doors, so he lay down outside
on the soft Bermuda grass, placed his
head on his hand bag and slept there
all night He preferred it to a bed in
the house.
Tom came out in the morning and
saw his brother asleep on the lawn.
He did not recognize him, although he
knew his brother was coming from
California soon.
What are you doing here?" he de-
manded, not recognizing his brother
You must be a tightwad to object
to man sleeping on your grass,
John retorted.
That's all right" said Tom, but
you'd better go on your way now
over to policeman. Not until after
they had reached the police station
did he make himself known Then
Tom bought two boxes of cigars for
the police officers to quiet their
laughter and said he would buy every
man a drink if they had not already
closed the saloons.
John will hereafter have his choice
of bed in the house or on the sleep
ing porch

Mr.. Windle is in Baltimore. We

DELAWARE MOOSE REBEL
Join Independent Republicans I'm
Movement To Smash G.. %. II.
Machine.

Delaware Progressives have Joined
the movement of Independent Repub-
licans to smash the Republican ma
chine in that State, which is seeking
to re-elect Henry A. Du Pont to the
United States Senate.
This means a third State ticket in
Delaware, aimed to overthrow the
regular Republican organization. Pro-
gressives, at the meeting of their State
committee, decided to put full ticket
in nomination and have planned to
conduct a separate campaign in its be-
half They adopted a separate party
platform in which they declared, in
part:
The Progressive party of the United
States was born in 1912 as a protest
agains political theft and against the
reactionary domination of the Repub
lican party by small band of political
freebooters."
The platform adds that Senator Du
Points denomination by the Republican
machine in Delaware was made pos
sible by the boldest fraud and theft
perpetrated in his behalf by small
coterie of INSCRIPTIONS politicians and
against the will of an honest and over
whelming majority of the rank and file
of his party"
Many Delaware Progressives, believ
ing that the most effective means of
destroying the Republican machine in
the State is to support the Democratic
candidates, both State and national,
have openly declared for the re-elec-
ton of President Wilson.

This measure will conduce to the es-
Establishment of more effective highway
machinery i'm each state, strongly In
fuence the development of good road
building along right lines, stimulate
larger production and better market
ing, promote fuller and more attrac-

principles of road legislation and will
safeguard the expenditure Of the funds

II. The Federal Reserve Act bene-
fits the farmer, as it does all the other
people of the nation, by guaranteeing
better banking, safeguarding the cred

venting panics. Tt takes particular
note of the special needs Of the farmer

banking machinery be devised which
would reach intimately into the rural
districts, that it should operate on
terms suited to the farmers needs,

agement. The need was for machinery
which would introduce business meth
DDS into farm finance, bring order out
of chaos, reduce the cost of handling
farm loans, place upon the market
mortgages which would be a safe in
vestment for private funds, attract in
to agricultural operations a fair share
of the capital of the nation, and lead
to a reduction of interest. These needs
and these ideals have been met by
the enactment of the Federal Farm
Loan Act.

to take part in the execution of this

WOMAN SERVED THREE YEARS
As MAN IN PRISON.
Artie Baker Finally BegS to Be Taken
To The WOman'S Ward.

'Artie"Baker, a woman, has served,
as a male convict, three years of
14-year sentence for robbery in San
Quentin Penitentiary, San Francisco.
Now she threatens to kill herself TN
less she is taken out of the mems
ward of the prison and put in the
WOman'S ward.
For three years Art" Baker lived
among hundreds of rough men. She
was jostled and gibed and insulted
until an appeal to the prison doctor
brought her a separate cell.
Even this bit Of privacy accorded
her by the prisons executives has not
lessened the sting which this womans
life, lived among 1,400 male prisoners,
has brought on her.
II will kill myself if they don't send
me into the women's ward" she said.
Il have lived three years of horror in
this prison among male convicts and
they have made my life hell
'Artie" Baker was born a deformed
baby girl, in a little Iowa farming
town forty years ago. Her mother
reared her as a boy. This is "Artie"
Bakers story:
I'm 1904 to save my brother from
prison and girl from disgrace I mar
ried the girl and became the father
of my brothers child.
Soon afterward, in pursuance Of
my agreement, 1 separated from the
girl. After that 1 left home and
taught school as man in Iowa, Kan
sas and Colorado.
Il was driven from my school when
the superintendent learned that | was
woman.
II made my way to Summerdale,
Cal, where my sister was postmis-
tress. I was sick and destitute. Des-
perate, l stole a handful of money
orders.
Il mailed a money order for 500 to
a minister in Sawtelle, near Los
Angeles.
In the letter l made believe I was
my mother, sending the money to a
hayward son in his CITY, whom moth
err hoped had reformed.
My letter asked the minister to
look me up and if I was trying to
do better to give me the $100.
Then | went to Sawtelle and at
tended the minister's church. l thank
ed him for the good his sermon had
done me and left my address with
him, saying I would become member
of his church.
A day or so later he got my letter
and came over and gave me the 500.
I worked this scheme all over South
ern California, cashing something like
$1,000 worth of money orders. I
found it easier than working in
schools and getting discharged.
The postal inspector in San Fran
cisco arrested me.
Il was tried and sentenced as a man
but | did not open my lips as to my
real sex. I am serving my long SEN
tence as a man. but now | am break
ing down under the strain of it."

1910, ninety per cent of the pro-
