STANDS up FOR RIGHTS
Criticized for Political Views, Presby-
terrain Pastor Resigns.

San Francisco, Sept. 23.-Aneging
that "ecclesiastical politicians are
making the prohibition dogma test
of orthodoxy" Rev. Newton E. Glenn
enson today rendered his resignation
to the Presbyterian synod of Cali
fornia.
The resignation is the outcome of
a furore raised two years ago when
the pastor lectured in behalf of the
grape protective association in the
statewide prohibition fight. He de-
clares that altho a district presbytery
sustained his action at that time, the
synod falsified this ratification in its
records. In a long review Clemenson
declares himself frankly out of sym
pathy with an ecclesiastic spirit which
can not see their way to accept the
political dogma
He claims the right ito support the
political party of my choice without
interference from the church or criti-
ciSm from brother ministers

BAKERS DODGING LAW
Announce Raise in Price "Individuai-
Iy,-Propose Bread Ordinance.

Chicago. Sept. 23.-An ordinance to
halt the advance in bread prices an
nounced yesterday was proposed to-
day by Morris ElIer city sealer. His
plan is to require bread loaves 70 be
labeled one pound, or one and -lai1
pounds, and prohibiting the sale OF
loayes weighing 'three-quarters IF a
pound" He says this would force
bakers to make pound loaves instead
of twelve-ounce ones and counts on
public sentiment to keep the price
down to cents.
The federal department of justice
will take no notice of the announced
increase unless it appears the oak-
ers are acting in combination. it was
said today
Bakers here are planning to dodge
the Sherman antitrust law, 1t is be-
lieved, in raising the price of bread.
One baker announced the increase
yesterday. Others will follow next
week, in order to avert prosecution
under the Sherman law by announce
ing increases at differer.- times.

Plainville. Kan, Sept. 23.-At one
time during the wheat blockade here
about 100000 bushels of wheat were
stored in the elevators and on the
the price has ranged from $1.1O to
Sl45 a bushel. Most of it was SOLO

The Plainville Mill and Elevator

pense. These mills are the largest In
this section of the country and nave
proved a big drawing card for Plain
Vile, Rocks county, Paradise Flats
and northwest Kansas.
The population of Plainville is close
to 100. The State journal represen-
tative made his first rounds here
when the town had few people and
fewer buildings. The principal at
traction here in the early days was
the sod hotel, and people came here
to eat a meal and sleep under its roof

In later years Plainville began to
grow G. c.. Cochran located here in
1888. He came here with $3.50, went
TO work on a farm, plowed with oxen
and saved his money, later engag-
ing in the hardware and implement

parades of the early days was made
up of binders sold at one of Mr. Coch-
rams annual sales.
Today Mr.. Cochran is al the head
of the First National bank IN Plain
vile and is owner of banks in Zurich,
Ellis, Damar. Walker, Ellsworth, and

with a front of As feet and a depth
of 1877 feet. 1t will have storage room
for 20 cars, and a full set of machin-

garages, and all of them have more
demand for cars than they can fill

TRY TO BREAK MUssER WILL.
Bequest to Jewell High School Held
Up by Giver's Brother.

Jewell City, Kan, Sept. 23.-Some
time ago Benjamin Musser bequeathed
$4,000, half of his property, to this
school district for the benefit of GER
tain classes of high school students.
The other half of the estate went to
his wife. The school gift has been
held up by. a brother of Mr.. Musser,
who has started proceedings to have
the will get aside.
Charles Musser of the Isle of Pines
has started the suit on the grounds
that his brother was of unsound mind
at the time the will was made, and
that undue influence was exerted upon
him in regard to the various requests.
