GOVERNOR IN PLEA
Allen Asks Legislature for
Compensation Legislation.
Wants Commission to Study
Needs and Report in 1921.

Fearing that no new compensation
legislation will be enacted at this ses-
sion, Governor Allen today sent a spe-
cial messag e to tine house and senate
asking for a commission to study
needed amendments and report in
1921 Because of the short time re-
manning for consideration of bills at
this session and conflicting ideas as
to changes ia the present law, the
governor suggested the appointment
of a commission as the only relief
available at this time.
The governors MESA ge-the short
est communication sent to the leSisla-
ture at this session-was read today
in both houses. No action has been
taken looking to the appointment of
a commission It is probable that a
bill will be originated tonight and may

WOULD MAKE STANDARD
Shippers and Railway Men Confer on
Eight Hour DAY.

An effort is being made in Topeka
to put business on the standard eight
hour day basis A step toward this
end was taken at the Chamber of
Commerce this afternoon at a joint
meeting of the Topeka traffic bureau
and the representatives of the various
railroad lines.
According o staten ents made by
the railway men an effort is to be
made to consolidate both the interests
of the road and their workers and
the shippers. AS things are now, so
the rail men say. the workers in the
freight houses work eight hours and
the employees of the shippers work ten
hours This leaves a lee WY of two
hours on the day-and as a result
their is always a pile-up of outbound
freight just at the opening of business.
The rail men state that il is their
experience that employees working
eight hours a day accomplish just as
faueh work-and sometimes more
work-than the same employees did
under the old ten-hoIr rule. It is the
expectation of the railway men that
the eight-hour day is sool to be uni
versally adopted in the United States
as the standard working day.

Fear of HOOdOO Date.
Eight Thousand Must Register

Altho in past years candidates for

Trained from filing their papers until
practically the last minute of the last
papers in a little earlier. But boy
howdy-the last day this year is the
thirteenth.
None of the candidates are really
in the race until they have filed their

Only five candidates had completed
this legal procedure at o'clock Tues

Negro in Race.
Following the announcement of W.
W. Russell to run Tor the same office
there was a general undercurrent of
question as TO just who Russell was.
Russell is a negro and has j:Ist re-
signed his commission as captain of
Company A, of the First battalion of
the state guard. He has not filed al
his papers yet. Only his declaration
/ has been placed on record in the city
clerks office. Before he could COM
plete the papers he was called to Camp
Funston. where it is understood he
will assist in the rehabilitation of the
92nd (colored) division, which has
landed in this country and will be in
Funston soon for discharge. He left
his petitions in the hands of friends
who have not filed them up to date.
Many Fail to Register.
Four thousand persons must register
on each of the next two days if the
voting strength is brought up to the
strength It put in the field at the cleo
tons last November. At that time

20.600. who could have voted. of the
first figure 9.449 lost the right to vote
