SlUSH QUIZ
HOLDS EYES
OF POLITICS
on Probe as Re
pubs Refute Cox With
Counter Charges.
By DAVID LAWRENCE.
Especial to The Argus)


New York City, Aug. 30.-Gov-
ernor Cox saved up for his New
York speeches some of his most
sensational testimony concerning
Republican finances. He had in
his possession an original subscrip-
ton list with the signatures on it
of some of the wealthiest men in
America who pledged their moral
and financial support" to William
Barnes, the Republican state lead
er, and promised sums for the adj
vancement of Republican doctrine.
1t is estimated that the aggregate
wealth of the men phose names
appear on the subscription list to-
tails hundreds of millions of dollars.
The Ohio governor purposely
saved this revelation for New York
City because of the instructions
contained in the official bulletin
, from the Republican treasurer's
office that the quotas or amounts
raised or contributors names must
not be divulged locally.
Proof OF Illegitimacy.
F; The democratic nominee charges
that this is convincing evidence in
itself of the illegitimacy of the
transaction.
Undoubtedly Governor Cox's
speeches on Republican finances
have put heart into an otherwise
dropping Democratic campaign

London, Aug. 30.-The hunger
strike of Terence MacSwiney, lord
mayor of Cork, has progressed SO
far that he is in such condition that
even if he took food now, it would
do no good, according to a state
ment by the Brixton prison doctor
to MacSwiney's wife, who visited
her husband this morning.
Mayor MacSwiney is said to be
even more gravely i'll than at last
reports and a change for the worse
may come at any time in the next
"a hours.
Mrs. MacSwiney remained with
her husband for three hours. She
said he was conscious and recogniz-
ed her, but was unable to speak.
Mrs. MacSwiney was pale and bore
evident signs Of the terrible strain.
Wife Near Collapse.
London, Aug. 30.-(United Press }
I-Muriel MacSwiney, young wife of
the lord mayor of Cork, who has
been almost constantly by the side
of her husband since his condition
became critical as the result of a
hunger strike, was herself on the
verge of a breakdown today.
After spending three hours with
the lord mayor in Brixt0n prison to-
day, the lady mayoress was pale
and weak when she left the institu-
lion, and appeared to. he nearing a
physical collapse. She said that,
following his relapse last night,
! MacSwiney recovered consciousness
this morning and recognized her
though he was unable to speak.
: May Give Him Food.
+ Mac Swiney was expected soon to
relapse into a comatose condition
after which physicians would feed
him liquid food, it was learned from
a semi-official source today. No at
tempt will be made at forcible
feeding while he is conscious.
According to the same authority
a decision was reached at the last
cabinet meeting in Downing street
not to release MacSwiney.
The government fully recognize.
the consequences Of its attitude re.
garding MacSwiney and is ready tt
assume full responsibility" it wa.
said.
/ Cabinet ministers were quoted a!
declaring that "the whole structur,
OF criminal Jurisprudence in Ire
land depends upon holding the lore

The prison physicians told Mrs
MacSwiney that her husband il

hours"

A person has health and strength
in just the proportion that the vital

perly. There is something radical
ly wrong when one feels tired and
discouraged, unfit and unwilling for
their daily work. Humanity was
never intended to suffer with head
aches, coated tongue, pain in the
back Or. stomach, hollow eyes, PIN
ply skin, yellow complexion, weak
nerves and the many symptoms at
tending the half-sick conditions which
attack so many people. All the time
some chronic disease is making deep

cases they are past curing, then they
wake up when it is forever too late.

EXPERIMENT STATION NOTES

Barley as Crop for Western Kansas
Barley is better adapted to dry
land conditions than either oats or
spring wheat and in the northwest
part of Kansas it yields considerably
more than either. Comparing the
yield on a bushel basis there is not
much difference in acre yield but
since oats have only 80 lbs. per
bushe1, and barley has 48, it is ap-
parent that barley will yield most per
acre.
The cereal crop experiments at the
Fort Hays Experiment Station during
the last six years have found that the
best oats have yielded GA pounds
per acre while the best variety of bar
ley has yielded 686 pounds per acre.
Sorzhums Compared to Corn for
Western Kansas
Grain sorghums are profitable crops
In Western Kansas and will produce
crops Of grain or forage any year.
The feeding value of the grain sor-
ghums is almost as good as that of
good corn and better than poor corn.
Feeding tests have placed the value
OF the grain sorghums at 9096 as
much as corn. The average yield at
the Fort Hays Experiment Station
for the grain sorghums for the last
twelve years has been IA bushels per
acre. for corn So bushels.
