State House Officials Are Worried


TOPEKA, KANs., June 12- Especial to
the Free Press)-There is nervousness
in several of the State Offices in the
State House. Its caused by the rumors
of revolt that come from many counties
by Republicans who see a machine in
operation in the State House Matching
out candidates for State offices-a die
tatlon the out-State Republicans do not
relish.
q The little State-House machine has
picked all candidates for State Offices
for this year and two years hence a
Seventh district man declared in the
Governors Office few days ago. The
little S.tate-House crowd Is strong on
assistants The promotion of depu-
ties or assistants is the plan, except
when they can put over one OF the elect
with q third term That was handed
to w. E. Davis two years ago, and it is
being worked now for ". D. Ross for 2
third term for State Superintendent. 1
understand that if Davis can pull his
assistant through he viii simply fall
back and take a second place. Ross is
pleading for two years more to work
out his plans, although he has been
connected with that office nine years,
and ought to have done something in
that time"
The complaint from out in the State
Is, that State Treasurer Akers and
State Auditor Davis, both of whom re-
tanned fees and pulled through by a
narrow margin two years ago, ought TO
be satisfied to permit the Republican
voters to select their successors. The
charge Is made that assistants IN both
Offices are being pushed and urged by
Akers and Davis, and that State time,
State-paid stenographers, State sta
tionery and State stamps are being
used to aid them, and thus keep intact
the State-House machine. The rumors
which reach Topeka from many sections
is that this VIII be an issue In the com
ing primary, and that the voters intend

Miss Anna Kellar presented the
Free Press family with a box of deli
cious strawberries the first of the
week, grown in her garden. The patch
is not large one but she has already
harvested about 100 quarts and there
are still unripe berries that will ripen
later.
Mr.. Lou Kraus, has just been noti-
fed by the Baldwin Sales Company,
that one of those famous standing
grain threshers will be shipped to him
this week. 1t will be demonstrated
soon at the Experiment Station and
those interested should be present. 4
later date will be announced. H. A.
Palmer special representative and Mr.
R. J. Raymond, are here and can be
seen at the Hotel Brunswick.
The people of Hays have shown much
interest in the erection of the Marker
of Clusters headquarters on Custer 5
Island. A large number braved the
threatening storm to attend the un-
yelling H D. Shaffer, H. L. Pestana,
and Herbert Chittenden were among
the speakers Mrs A. D. Gilkesoa,
and Mrs. J. H. MiddlekaufF, who had
visited Gen. Custer on that island, were
photographed beside the marker. A
Boston newspaper wrote for an account
and pictures of the event. Other big.
dailies have published articles about it.
Early Thursday morning, the Wind
sor hotel experienced rather a serious
fire. The fire occurred in the kitchen
Cafe anex which is being run by Mrs
Christofferson. The blaze was caused
by the careless handling of a can filled
with gasoline by young man who is
in the employ of Mrs. Christofferson,
while building a fire to cook breakfast.
The inside walls were burned and
blackened. A fresh supply Of sui gar,
-four, and. other groceries were burned

Yours respectfully,
R. S. SAVILLE, Prest
The foregoing letter puts up an exceed
mgly poor excuse for Mr. Dozier.
This Dawson cotton factor has held an
other firms bale of cotton for tqO0 gears. re-
tuslng to produce it, because an alleged re-
ceipt is not forth coming.
What sort of bookkeeping is done in
Doziers establishment?
Can he not, within two years. discover a
bale of cotton which does not belong to any
other customer, and which therefore must be
the bale belonging to Fleming & English?
Did he mark the bale in any way?
is he IN the habit of carrying cotton for
two years?
Candor compels me to say that Mr.. Sa-
v1lle's letters leaves Mr.. Dozier in at least as
bad fix as Fleming & English's letter did.
1t doesn't matter where Mr.. Dozier ''was
born and raised" that's no qOoy for him to
handle another mans cotton.
It is to be hoped that the delegates from
the country counties will insist upon dec
laratory Resolution in favor of the County,
unit plan, at the approaching convention.
We cannot afford to have the balance of
power held by the big cities, a0here the
Catholic cote a05W azaOdys be AGAINST us,
and where the unnatural alliance of the
rich Jew and the Romanist will always domi-
nate close contest. Let us put the County
unit plan into law, so that it will not be the
victim Of the changing interests of politi-
clalIs.

BRITAIN AWAITS
THE FIRST MOVE
OF SUBMARINES

London, Feb 2S.-The projected Ger
man submarine campaign was the
subject of much discussion and specu-
lation today in all quarters in Lon
don. Keen interest was displayed in
the question whether Germany would
commence the operations on March l
or postpone them for month, as has
been reported from America might be
done.
Many military experts expressed the
opinion that the date for beginning
the new submarine crusade would de-
pend largely upon the outcome of the
Verdun battle. They said that should
the Germans win an overwhelming
victory, they probably would feel in
a position to ignore the American
views and proceed with the submer-
sible campaign March l as originally
announced and press the forces of the
Entente Powers both on land and sea
as hard as possible.
If the Teutons suffer a defeat at
Verdun it is believed here they may
be inclined to concede a postponement
of the submarine program until
more propitious time.
