Masonic hall Thursday night. After
the spread, the Temple degree was
conferred on DR.. Cudworth of Perry,
and the commandery was inspected

scales in the city, and expects to
finish his work soon. All wagon scales
were tested and two of them were
condemned. Red cards were placed
on them to prevent their further use.
Some of the large scales were found
TO be off slightly but it was apparent
that it was not intentional on the part

dealer was found to give rs pounds
overweight on each ton. 1t is unnec.
essary to state that this was not in

KANSAS DISSATISFIED
WITH DEMOCRATIC RULE

Washington, d. C.-Republicans
from Kansas, who are in close touch
with conditions throughout the state,
express much satisfaction over those
conditions. They say that whereas in
the past there has been at times
much factionalism and internal strift
that is not the case now. The dis
position of the Kansas republicans is
to get together for the purpose of
rolling up a great party majority in
1920. The feeling is pronounced that
the present democratic administra-
tion and all that appertains thereto
must be cast overheard in the cleo
tions a year hence and that any diff
ferences in views within the republi-
can party must be subordinated to
that end.
The dissatisfaction with the present
administration in Kansas is described
by reliable authority rs deep a pro

found. 1t is due to many reasons.
Among other things, the covenant for
the league of nations in the form in
which President Wilson has tried to
force it on the American people is not
liked by the majority of the people of
Kansas. Testimony to this effect
comes from many directions. Senator
Curtis is receiving many letters indi-
eating that the league covenant,
though at first well received by many,
is now in disfavor. 1t has not stood
investigation and analysis.
Similar testimony is coming from
various sources. Among the Kansas
farmers, the dissatisfaction with the
administration, according to many re-
liable reports is plainly marked.

Congressman Fordney Comments on
NJ Republican Candidate.
Saginaw. Mich, Nov. 27-Chairman
J. w. Fordney of the ways and means
committee of congress Thursday de-
clared that he did not think there was
a chance for President Wilson to lead
his party next year and that he would
not be selected because of his mistakes.
The congressman spoke Of Senators
Harding and Watson and Governor
Louden of Illinois. as the strongest pos.
sibiliiies on the republican ticket
President Wilson couldn't get the
nomination for a.third term even If he
asked for it," said Congressman Ford
ney. 'The democratic party can not
afford to nominate him again in the
face of the popular prejudice against
third terms and Wilson is not strong
enough now to overcome that prejudice
Il consider William g. McAdoo,
former secretary of the treasury, and
A Mitchell Palmer. he present attor
ney general, aELe most likely men in
the Democratic party. Mr. McAdoo is
a very smart man.
"Algreat many men have been sug
gested as possible candidates OF the Re-
publican party. do not believe Charles
E Hughes will make any effort to
secure the nomination William III.
Taft told me some time ago that he is
out Of politics and intends to stay out.
He il feeling better now than he ever
did while he was in cffice, he tells me,
and does not want the burden again
"Of all the men have heard suggest
ed there are three who stand out as the
most promising and the most fitted fol
the Republican nomination. I have no
particular choice Of any one of the
three but believe that which ever II
nominated one of the remaining two
will be named to run with him as vice
president.
"Those men are, Senator James e
Watson, Indiana; Senator Warren &
Harding, Ohio, and Governor Frank 0.
Douden of Illinois All are capable men
and believe all will come up for seri
GUS consideration in the Republican
national convention. Jim Watson
is one of the finest men l know
and l believe he's the best orato
in the world. He does not u.s.
fowery language but talks sense
Harding is another bright man ant
so is Governor L,uden. Genera
Leonard Wood has been rathe
prominently mentioned. 1 have no
met him but understand that he i
an able man. 1 do not know hov
strong he will be in the nationa

A gigantic stage has been effec-
lively set at Chicago for what is pop
ularly known as the annual "Fat Stock.
Show" 1t is the Twentieth Anniver-
sary of the international Live Stock
Exposition, embracing every known
breed of draft horses, beef cattle,
hogs, and sheep, together with dis

sheep without precedent as to quality.
At this display in the International
lAmphitheatre at the Union Stock
Yards, Chicago, the first week of De-
cember, wealth of seed stock rend-
cred priceless by depletion in Europe
during the war will be assembled for
INSTALLATION, presenting an opportu-
nifty for the economist, the student
and the public, possible nowhere else
and at no other time. The event
marks the elimination of two decades
of progress during which American
breeders have drawn on the best
herds and flocks of Europe in carry
ing out the purpose of the "Interna-
tional" to up}ift the live stock indus
try.
From every section of the United
States pedigreed live stock, fat bull
locks, portly porkers and prime NUT

Lansing, Nov. 17.--An experiment
that is gaining almost nationwide at
tention, especially among health
workers, is being put on by Miss Carol
F. Walton, formerly executive secre-
tary of the Michigan Anti-tubercu-
losis Association, now serving in a
similar capacity for the state of Ari-
zona. 1t is citywide health survey
in the city of Tucson, Arizona, under
the auspices of the Arizona Tubercu-
losis Association.
This is the second experiment of it's
kind in America. The first was be-
gun in birmingham, Mass, a few
years ago through the efforts of a
big life insurance company under the
auspices of the National Tuberculosis
Association. The Framingham ex-
pertinent has not only won national
interest but it has won the attention
of health workers all over the world.
The Tucson survey is to be conduct
ed by Miss Harriet Hamilton, a train
ed tuberculosis nurse. She is to be
assisted by corps of physicians and
nurses. The survey in Framingham
revealed nine times as many cases of
tuberculosis in that city as were be-
lieved to exist, and it is expected that
similar story will be told by the
survey in the Arizona town.
Miss Walton, who is the executive
head of the Arizona organization that
conducts the movement was the Mich
igan tuberculosis secretary during
the first ten years of the life of the
! states anti-tuberdulosis association.
She piloted the association through it's
critical period of early growth, and
since going to Arizona she has been
doing big things in that state.
The Tucson survey will be financed
through the Red Cross Christmas
Seal Sale, which also will finance the
work for 1920 in Michigan,

BOLSHEVIKS IN OFFICE
SAYS SENATOR WATSON

Washington, ID. C.-That Bolshev-
ism turks in high office in the Admin
istration and that it is empowered
where it can do harm to the Industries
of the country, is the charge made by
Senator James e. Watson, of Indiana,
and it has startled the National Cap
ital.
For the present he confines his evil
dence to the Federal Trade Commits
sion, the members of which were ap-
pointed by the President. Here it is:
"Stuart Chase had general charge
in Chicago of all the Investigations of
the meat-packing industry and super
vision of all the Investigations of in
dependent packing companies through
out the United States. He was mar
ried in 1915 and together with his
wife, spent their honeymoon doing
Summing work and making an in
vestigation of social character in
Rochester, N, Y. They collaborated
in writing book called "a honey
moon Experiment" which plainly
shows the socialistic views of each
Since that time he has been a great
contributor to magazines and news
papers of socialistic character, and
has written many articles against
what he is pleased to capp capitalism
"His office at Chicago, the office OF
the Federal Trade Commission, dur.
ing the investigation of the meat
packers was in the Conway Building
and it at once became the center Of
socialistic> activities. He organized
and afterwards became the president
of the Fabian Club, society founded
for the express purpose of furtherinl
the doctrines of socialism. Abou
him in the Federal trade commission
headquarters, were grouped such mel
as Victor Berger and Irwin st. Johi
Tucker, both of whom have been in
dicted and convicted under the espion
age act, and many other extrem
socialists, and his office became tn
rendezvous of a number of men de
voted to the destruction of property
the overthrow of Government, an
the consummation of the ideals o
socialism.
Samuel w. Tabor, who, with Stuar
Chase, had general charge of investi
cations, is well known in socialist
circles. During this time he was a
avowed admirer of Lenin and TrotsI
and frequently expressed his admira
tion of the soviet government of Rus
sia. He was an active member of tn
/ Fabian Club and was pronounced
against the Allies in the World War.
