THE right to strike is strongly
founded in custom, but the right to
live is more deeply founded in the
laws Of nature" declares the New
York Tribune in commenting on the
human side of Governor Aliens de-
bate with Samuel Gompers, president
of the American Federation of Labor.
The New York paper declares the ten
per cent minority can never drive the
its progrsm when such a course means
suffering and want.
Under the caption The Right to
Live" the Tribune speaks of Com
perss evasion of Governor Aliens
questions-finally his flat refusal to
answer Mr.. Gompers confuses the
right to quit work with the right to
strike" SAYS the Tribune. Then the
paper continues:
The two things are significantly similar
but fundamentally different. No one, as
may not quit work individually. But a
strike is more than a quitting. 1t repre-
sents a conspiracy, usually directed from
above, to impose the will of group to the
prejudice of the freedom of others II
there slaves under present conditions
they are the defenseless members of the
public whose obedience is forced.
The issue before Governor Allen was
inferior to the right Of others to live. The
tactics of the labor unions confronted the
instinct of self preservation 1t is safe to
bet that in the duel the instinct of self

FRY EGG ON ICE
Hoover Supporters All But Out
of Convention.
Food Chief Handed an Uppercut
by G. 0. P. Leaders.
BY SAN FARRELL.

d BAN JARIN6lAI-
Chicago, June 9.-Despite the sleek
atmosphere which pervades the elab-
crate Hoover headquarters at the Au-
ditorium hotel, and the crowds of we'll
dressed men and women that congre-
gate there, there is a feeling that the
former food chief has been handed
the honeyed uppercut by the Repub-
lican leaders.
In fact. from authentic sources it
has been learned that Hoover was ap-
preached by certain party chieftains
some months ago, and these men
urged him to enter the presidential
race as a Republican. Not being as
we'll versed in politics as a presiden-
tial aspirant should be, the Califor-
MAN murmured. "Oui. oui," at the APP
parently sincere appeals of these poll
ticians.
Leaders of both parties know that
Herbert Hoover has a powerful fol-
lowing among the voters. Last win
ter the Republicans figured that If he
were nominated by the Democrats he
would be a formidable opponent At
the same time, they did not care to
name as the Republican nominee a
man who, in 1918, requested the peo-
pie to re-elect a Democratic congress-
as per the wishes of President Wilson,
A conference was held at French Lick
Springs, Ind, where many a political
plot has been laid, and the main topic
of conversation was the best way to
smother the Hoover boom, or at least
render it impotent.
The result of the conference was
that individually a number of the
prominent Republican leaders called
on Mr.. Hoover.
There seems to be a great demand
for you. Mr.. Hoover" they said. We
feel sure that il you are nominated
on the Republican ticket we will win
a sweeping victory at the November
polls"
While no promises of support were
given, this was implicated. Hoover
was repeatedly urged to announce
himself as {. Republican receptive can
didate. He finally did SO. That
queered his chances with the Demo-
Gratis, and when the announcement
for his Republican hackers. He found
them-thousands and thousands-but
not the same inner council chaps who
had been so solicitous shout him a
few weeks before.
Hoovers one bare chance for the
nomination is on a weary deadlock,
and at that his prospects are not so
bright, according to dopesters like
Sam Blythe and others, as those of
Governor Sproul, Charles E. Hughes
or Henry Allen.
The Hoover headquarters are Law
ishly decorated with posters showing
Yale straw vote results and Literary
Digest polls. Women with diamond
studded fingers, and corpulent men
with heavy watch chains rounding out
their massive chests in a. manner most
equatorial, are nocking around the
Hoover rooms, trying their best to be
enthusiastic. Fannie Hurst says it
appears to her as II the Hooverites
are trying to fry an egg on, ice.

ECHO OF HOSS TRADIN' DAYS
City and Innocent Bystander Out a
Result OF Deal.

G. G. Hannah, chief of police, or
Kilmaurs King. humane agent, would
tell you the good old horse trading
days are not yet past. Chief Hannah
today sold for $28 a horse which had
been kept in the pound several days
and had eaten $35 worth of the city's
feed. In addition to this woeful fact
J. H. DUNCAN, proprietor of a feed
store in North Topeka. is "out" s65.
He was the innocent bystander.
Last April. so the story goes, B. H.
McClain sold a horse to A. H. Ahl-
strom, route 8, for s65. Ahlstrom
wrote McClain a check for this sum.
After the deal was closed. it was said.
Ahlstrom decided the horse wasn't all
that a good equine should be and
stopped payment on the check. Then
he took the horse and tied him to Nc
Claims wagon.
But, in the meantime, McClain had
cashed the check with DUNCAN, ac-
cording to officers, and when the lat
ter presented 1t to the bank, payment
was refused. A warrant was issued for
McClain. but it was discovered he had
disappeared, after cutting the horse
loose from his wagon. The animal
was later picked up and taken to the
city pound.

ON PINT OF GAS, SO MILES.
Franklin Car In Test Here Makes
Record Of 20 Miles Per Gallon.


Three and six-tenths miles on a
pint of gasoline was the record made
Tuesday afternoon by Franklin
Touring car driven by W. H. Sterling.
a Franklin salesman. Mayor H. j.
Corwine and Commissioner Robert D.
McGiffert accompanied him to witness
the demonstration
A bottle fastened on the side of the
car was connected with the feed pipe.
Into this the pint of gasoline was
poured, the feed from the vacuum
tank cut off and the gas run out of
the carburetor. The bottle was then
connected and Sterling ran 3.6 miles
on the pint of gasoline. This is equiv
alent to 2S.4 miles to the gallon.
The route lay over pavement most
of the way and the driver maintained
a speed of about % miles per hour.
He declared that on a straight level
road this record could be broken.
During the demonstration the motor
ran continuously and the clutch was
constantly engaged.
Franklin statesmen all over the
country are competing for twenty
prizes, ranging from $50 TO $500 and
totalling $4,000. based on the number
of points made by each man during

present my views without regard
to strict agreement with the views
of any leaders. The campaign
leaders are anxious to have me
