Campaign VIII Get the
Money t
HAYS WANTS s2,ooo.ooO

Chicago, June 13-National Chair
man win Hays will gather campaign
fund which will not place the Repub-
Iican party in the position of having to
favor any interests or any rich man.
The plan, which is already in opera
! tion. represents the chairmans de-
termination to clean up politics so far
as his party is concerned.
| To begin with, the preliminary eY-
penses of the National Committee, the
convention cost and other outgoes,
have been paid for out of contribu.
| tions which average from $125 to $3.50
an individual contributor, and there
! is a handsome sum left in the National
| Committees bank account The re.
markable fact about this money is that
so per cent Of it was given by men
and women that had never before
given dollar to the Republican cause.
+ Some of the money comes from South
ern states and a good deal Of 1t Is
credited to the border states.
/ No contribution of more than $1,000
will be accepted from anybody. That
! is flat. The belief amounts to GER
tainty that sufficient funds can be OBJ
tanned by this method to finance the
campaign. Moreover, the books Of the
National Committee will be wide open.
Anybody who wants to find out where
the Republican organization is getting
| its money may have access to the rec
ords 1t is probable that they will be
volunteered to the public in the shape
of statements, sworn to before notar-
lies public, from time to time.

upon the tracks, were struck by the
train behind the one from which they
had fallen.
The first train was halted as soon

men engaged the emergency trip

RUTLAND YOUNG MAN is
KILLED IN AUTO WRECK
Car, Driven BY Victim of Accident,
Twice Turned Turtle Near
Lake Morev.

Montpelier, June 13.-Word was re-
celved this morning of the fatal acct
dent that took place in Orford, N. H.,
across the Connecticut river from
Fairless in which Howard Root of Rut-
land was killed and Michael Glaseen,
a fourth year man at Norwich univer.
sity, who is well known among the
younger people In Montpelier, was in
jured and taken to Hanover hospital.
1t was stated this afternoon he ex-
pected to so to Northfield Monday to
attend the graduating exercises.
1t appears Mr. Root was on his way
to Norwich to attend the commence
ment exercises, expecting to enter the
college next fall, and Glaseen was with
him. They had attended a dance at
Lake Morey and had left for North
field. They had to detour off the main
road between Fairlee and Bradford be-
cause of the federal aid project, which
carried them through Oxford, N. H., al
most to Piermont. N H., and then
back to the Bradford road. AS near as
could be fMlnd out they were driving
fast and were passing q large touring
car 1t appears the Root car went in
to the soft dirt at one side of the road
and the driver instead of putting on
his brakes gave 1t more speed to come
back into the road resulting in the
car turning over twice. Root was
breathing when picked up and carried
to the house of Byron Dennis. DR.. G
A. Weaver of Bradford was called, but
the young man died before Dr. Weaver
reached him. There was a bad hole
in one temple of Roots head and he
had other injuries. Glaseen was injur
ed about the legs and was carried tC
the hospital.

the contest ending in order that a
game might be played between the Ben
nington and Valley Falls teams. The
result Of the latter game was ,pO in
favor of the visiting team
The high school game was exciting
and cleanly played throughout and it
was unfortunate that the last game Of
the season could not have lasted nine
innings. The two ,eams were evenly
matched and only brilliant rally
would have gained the advantage for
either nine.
In the latter game, the local team
was slightly ou lclassed, as the Valley
Falls yeam included three former
North Adams stars and two former
Hoosick Falls stars. Both pitchers
worked well, neither one allowing a
base on balls.
The Benning Oh team gave heir
pitcher poor support and seemed un-
able o connect the bat with the ball
at the psychological momen. The
three runs scored by he visiting team
in the second inning came as the re-
suit Of three errors on the par of yhe
home team. With Valley Falls bunch
ing hits and Bennington punching er
rors the same time, the visi ors
easily carried eff jhe laurels of vic
ory.
