GO TO HEAR cox.

Governor Cox appears in Topeka at
the auditorium tomorrow evening. He
is the first of the national campaign
ers to visit the capital city of Kansas
and his presence demands a large au-
dicnce. The campaign has aroused
the greatest interest in years in Amer
lean politics and it is the duty of every
voter to make a thoro study Of eondi-
tons and nominees before he casts his
ballot.
The press of the country is filled
tnese days with charges and counter
charges between the two parties. The
average voter is mystified. One day
he believes, the next day he is doubt
ful and the third day he throws up his
hands in despair.
e If it is to be a mud Campaign the
result will be a muddy ballot with the
voter crossing his finger and his ballot
at the same time.
At any rate there is a certain degree
of personal following that is recog-
nized-in all political combats. The
state of California elected Wilson four
years ago because of the personal in
nuence and following of a congress
man from San Diego. who was uni
versal favorite. despite his party af-
filiations.
To get this personal touch the voter
must make a study of the candidates
Governor Cox of Ohio appears here
Wednesday night. His speech will
provide Topckans with an opportunity
of studying the Democratic nominee
from intimate observation.

Eventually they'll get the miscreant
who blew up Wall street. The type
of criminal who conceives, or executes,
such an appalling calamity, can't keep
from talking about it afterward. The
most difficult feat confronting the
criminal is that of robbing himself of
what he believes to be his own glory.
It is human nature that a man must
talk of his crime and a woman of her
iudfscretion.

NOW COMES PLEASING STAR IN ROMANCE AND
 FILM OF ADVENTURE

And now after a strenuous week, during which Douglas Fairbanks has "stunted," and Florence Reed has "Emoted," in the superlative degree along comes Emmy Whelen in a sparkling comedy drama entitled "A Favor to a Friend"
 Men love Emmy for her beauty. Women admire her for her wondrous gowns. Both men and women feel the charm of her personality and ap- peal. The play itself is an interesting and breezy sort of story combining both romance and adventure. A will lanOuh guardian, rich and beautiful ward, a pretty chorus lady, an en- terprizing press agent and an obliging friend are all mixed up in a case of mistaken identity that results in a few thrills, some little suspense, and a novel situation.

The boat was also badly damaged and began to fill with water.

REGULATION OF SH0RELANDSBY
 NEW MEASURE

The full text of the Grigsby bill abolishing the 80-rod reserved shore spaces between claims in shore waters in Alaska has been received here, showing that the repeal applies only to the Territory and gives the secre- tary of agriculture full power to act in all cases. The bill, which passed the house ot representatives on May 31, was put through the senate on the last day of the session.
 It will be of great material benefit to many Alaskan homesteaders who have cleared up land along various streams and waters along the coast as well as in the Interior Several home stead patents, heretofore held up by the old regulations, can now be put through by the land office officials of the Territory.
 The full text of the measure is as follows:
 An act to provide for the abolition of the eighty-rod reserved shore spaces between claims on shore waters in Alaska.
 Be it enacted by the senate and house of representative of the United States of America, in congress assem- bled, that the provisions of the act of May IA, 1898, Thirteenth Statutes at Large, page 4O9), extending the homestead laws to Alaska, and of the act of March 3, 1903, (Thirty Statutes at Large, page 102S), amend atory thereof, insofar as they reserve from sale and entry a space of at least eighty rods in width between tracts sold or entered under the pro- visions thereof along the shore of any navigable water, and provide that no entry shall be allowed extending more than one hundred and sixty rods along the shore of any navigable water, shall not apply to lands classified and listed by the secretary of agriculture for entry under the act of June Il, 1906 (Thirty-fourth Statutes, page 233), and that the secretary of the interior may upon application to enter or otherwise in his discretion restore to entry and disposition such reserved spaces and may waive the restriction that no en- try shall be allowed extending more than one hundred and sixty rods along the shore of any navigable water as 10 such lands as he shall determine are not necessary for harborage uses and purposes"

STUDENTS WITH MOVIE STUNTS
 ENLIvEN CITY

Among the passengers aboard the steamship Northwestern is bunch of college boys who are going to Anchorage to work for the Alaskan Engineering Commission. In order to break the monotony of their long trip, which started at San Francisco, they fitted up a fake moving picture machine and hoaxed the residents of every Alaskan port touched by pre- tending to film prominent local char acters and scenes. They pulled off this stunt very successfully at Ketch- kan, Juneau and Skagway, thereby de- irving much sport. But the tables were turned upon their arrival here and the plot thickened even beyond the expectations of this ambitious bunch. They had been framed" against and as soon as the company appeared in it's first setting George Dooley "pinched' the bunch for an alleged violation of city ordinance. The culprits were hailed before a Kangaroo court and after a "'fair and impartial trial in which they were all found guilty of the joksters being joked they were released on their own reconiZance and allowed to again breathe the mountain air and go on their way rejoicing and incidentally plying their vocation as movie heroes to the entertainment of the populace.
