on every saleday. One one occasion
there happened to be an odd number
present, and while the others were
divided off. into pairs and pounding
each other with fists, and gouging
eyes, the odd man was simply "spoil-
ing" for fight. In his great anxiety
he called on someone to hit him ;
finally when no one appeared to
fight him, he cried with loud voice,
""Will no one fight me, have I no
friend who will hit mel"

ming learned this trick from a politi-
cal adviser during the off period Of
the campaign. Col. George john
stone, of Newberry, told US once
that the 'surest. way to destroy the
effects of a good argument of an
adversary was to ask him question
in the midst Of the argument. And
the Governor has caught the point.
But Mr.. Cooper is a lawyer too.
The governor wants to know why
Mr.. Cooper wants to defeat him.
Mr.. Cooper is perfectly willing for
Governor Manning to serve out the
term for which the people elected
him. At the end of that term the
Office belongs to the people and they
have a right to fill it. Governor
Manning is entirely mistaken in sup
posing that the Office belongs to him,
and that his rights are superior to
those of Mr.. Cooper, or anyone else.
Neither has right to the Office. The
creature must not assume that his
rights are superior to the rights of
the creator-the people.

HE WANTS TO FIGHT.

Governor Manning is now calling
on Mr.. Cooper to find fault with his
administration. He wants to get in
to a fight with Mr.. Cooper. This
reminds us of the story which Col.
Glenn of Chester relates. It runs
this way: Mr.. James Hemphill, a
distinguished lawyer of the Chester
bar remembered saleday in Chester
in the long ago, when it was day
for fist fights between the men be-
longing to the Rocky Creek Irish clan
of that county. They would gather
on the court house green for a fight

for a man to accept the nomination

convention, June %.

wired Lee from Duluth. Mimi, where
he is making dry" speeches, that be-
cause of the failure of the Progressive
national convention to include a pro-
hibition plan in its platform, he will
refuse to run for governor, even though
he was nominated in the Progressive
primary.
Il consented to the use Of my name
as a candidate on certain conditions"
said Hanly. "One of these conditions
was that the state convention should
declare for state and national prohibi-
ton. The national convention refused
to vote for prohibition plank in the
platform, and | am informed all the
Indiana delegates voted against pro-
hibition. 1t would be decidedly en-
barrassing for me to continue to allow

GARAGES COMBINE
To CONTROL PRICE
OF ALL GASOLINE

WASHINGTON, June 13.-Evidence
that automobile garage owners in New
York, Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit and
st. Louis and several other large
cities in the United States are attempt
ing to form big combination for the
handling of gasoline is in the hands Of
the federal trade commission.
This was brought out at the hearing
being held today in connection with
the commissions investigation into
the increase in the price Of gasoline.
The garage men are determined to
make every effort to control the re-
tail price of gasoline within their
particular districts, according to the
evidence.
The move is being justified on the
ground that the Standard Oil and the
Independent oil companies have at
tempted to drive the garage men out
of the trade by establishing their own
gasoline stations to sell direct to the
automobilist. The garage men say
they must combine in self-defense.
The federal trade commission has
inaugurated a searching investigation
into the matter to determine whether
violation of the law exists. 1t is stated
that the garage men are getting
around the provisions of the antitrust
laws by creating their combination
through the medium of voluntary as
ISOLATION.

BOSOM FRIEND
SAYS LAMBERT
GIRL TOOK LIFE

WAUKEGAN, Ill, June 13.-While
all Lake county gaped and marveied,
Josephine Davis, bosom friend and
confident of Marian Lander, continued
today ruthlessly to knock apart the
structure of circumstantial evidence
which the state had so carefully built
up against Will Orpet. Miss Davis
was supposed to have been the star
witness for the prosecution.
When her direct testimony was
given Orpet was grinning and Ills
lawyers were elated. Not once during
the morning did she blacken the stud
ent's case.
The climax of her testimony, how
ever, came suddenly in her cross-ex-
animation just at noon. She was asked
whether she remembered a birthday
party.
Yes" she replied. Marion was
crying and she said to me, If Will Or
pet gives me up and marries Celeste
Yoker, will kill myself"
The defense made no attempt to
conceal its JOY at this statement. 1t
was squarely in line with it's theory

at Indianapolis and again at Chicago
