GAS USED IN PLOT
TO KILL RENO CITIZEN

Reno, New, Oct. 26.-Phostrine
gas, one of the most deadly developed
during the war, was used in the al
legged attempt to kill Fred Anderson
and c. P. Jensen Saturday night, ac-
a report to the police to-day. Bessie
Phillips and Vida Carter, the two
young women into whose apartment
the gas was thrown, are recovering
to-day. Jensen and Anderson, who
were witnesses In the whisky cases
before the Federal grand jury at
San Francisco, we're removed from
Reno to an unknown destination last
night by Federal officers.

FARMERS ON STRIKE

The strike of the wheat growing
farmers is proving effective. We'd
nesday the price Of the cereal ad-
vanced more than 10 cents per BUSH
ell on the Chicago market, and 1t will
go still higher II the farmers contin-
ne to hoard their grain, says the Salt
Lake Tribune. Flour will also go up
in due curse Of time because the
millers will not take the loss involved
when they are compelled to pay high
or prices for wheat. The Chicago
grain buyers will make their usual
profits and the entire burden will
fall upon the ultimate consumer.
There Is no escape for jewellers in
cities and in towns with families to
support. They cannot go on strike,
because that would mean starvation.
Just how long the strike of the wheat
growers will continue remains to be
seen. II they hold out long enough
war bread may again come into use,
and the people of this country, the
poorer classes, at any rate, be re-
duced to the European level, which
is not pleasant to contemplate. 1t
may turn out, however, that the
hoarders will be forced to market
their grain to meet obligations and
buy the things they need.

now regarded as bound in honor,
though. not in law, to vote only for
the nominated candidates Of their
party. and so In choosing the cleo
tors the people practically choose the
President and vice-President.
Legally. no President will be elect
ed text Tuesday. But practically the
result of the voting for electors will
determine the question whether Cox
or Harding will at a later date receive
the votes of the majority of the cleo
tors and so be legally chosen Presi-
dent.
NUMBER OF ELECTORAL VOTES
There are sal electoral votes. Who
ever is elected must have a majority
of them, not less than 266. Four
years ago Woodrow Wilson had PIT
and Charles E. Hughes 254. Mr..
Wilson carried 80 States and Judge
Hughes IS; but one Hughes State,
West Virginia, was so close that the
President obtained n extra vote
there.-Current Events.

PRESIDENTIAL CONTEST

On Tuesday next, November 2, Q
new President Of the United States
will be elected. 1t will be James M.
Cox Of Ohio, Democratic candidate,
or Warren G. Harding OF Ohio. Re-
publican candidate. Eugene Debs.
Socialist party candidate, is hardly
thought to be in the running. They
are men of ability and personal honor.
Like the Presidents who have gone
before. either would, so far as his
record shows, fill the Office with dig
nifty and with zeal for the country's
welfare. Their temperaments are
quite different. Governor Cox is
quick in action, alert, energetic, pos
tive, rather of the Roosevelt type.
Senator Harding is slower, larger Of
frame, with a more impressive man
ner, cautious, conservative, urbane,
more of the Mckinley than the Roos-
evelt type. The n candidate natur-
ally turns his face more to the future,
the other more naturally to the past.
THE ONE ISSUE
Practically the sole issue between
the two Is the question whether we
of the United States should, or should
not, ratify the Treaty of Peace with
Germany. Should we thus take u
place along with th%irty-nine other ma
lions in a cooperative League or So
ciety of Nations? Its purpose and
intention are to save the world from
future wars, but its practical effect,
Senator Harding and other Republi-
can Senators say, would be to make
more@ wars than it would prevent.
Other issues" like the high cost of
living, the readjustment of taxes, the
enforcement Of prohibition, do not
draw any clear line between the par
ties, or between Cox and Harding,
because there is no clear difference in
their known programs.
HOW PRESIDENTS ARE ELECTED
The voters do not vote for Presi-
dent or Vice-President. They vote
for officers called Presidential Elec-
tors. The elected electors meet weeks
later and choose a President and a
Vice-President.
The whole body of electors is called
the Electoral College. Each State is
entitled to choose as many of these
electors as 1t has Senators and Rep
~resentatives in Congress, and there
fore the whole number of electors is
always equal to the whole number of
Senators and Representatives. In fact
the original intention was that the
Electoral College should be a special
Congress chosen for the sole purpose
of selecting and electing the Presi-
dent and Vice-President, the electors
using their own best judgment in the
But this feature soon be-
came a dead letter. The electors are

sympathies OF the men kneads them
into milling crowd and finally pre-
walls upon them TO scoff at ,the quiet
measures of the council table. From
this attitude it Is only step TO the
lower level of that primitive form OF
justice, mob law.
Most of all to be regretted is that
the organizer, sent more often than not
from a central office of a union for
the express purpose of stirring up dis

cal conditions to which the men are
subjected He knows nothing OF their

He, is the parent of more misery aud
hardship than can be laid at the DIOR
OF any other single agency.
That American citizens will submit
indefinitely to having such parasitical
producers of nothing but upheaval
gain their livelihood at the expense of

They tear down. Like a destructive IRE
