DOG SEEKS AID FOR DYING
Whines In Vain to Obtain Help fol
Mistress Who Dies Sud-
denly.

Los Angeles.-DOughboy, a pedigreeC
bulldog, owned by T. c. Stevens of the
bond firm of Stevens, Page & Sterling
was credited with an almost human
attempt to summon help when Mrs
Stevens aunt, Mrs. G. F. Endly, died
suddenly at San Diego.
The dog, a thoroughbred in which
the owner takes considerable pride
was left in Mrs. Endly's care by Mrs
Stevens.
During the night Mr.. Endly was
awakened by Doughboy. The dog was
whining and moaning with such per.
sistency that Mr.. Endly fearing his
wife would be disturbed, went to the
door and calling softly to the dog
finally induced him to go into the
other room. Doughboy exhibited 8
strange restlessness, resisting all eff
forts to quiet him. The man was puz,
zled. Only after a considerable time
did he induce Doughboy to lie down
Then Mr.. Endly went to sleep.
In the morning he found his wife's
lifeless body. Doctors were imme.
diately called. They pronounced it 8
case of heart failure and declared that
Mrs. Emily had been dead several
hours.

LOWDEN FOR ECONOMY
Term as Governor a Record of
Saving and Efficiency.
simpIlfies Management Of State Al
fairs With Results Profitable
to the Tax Payers

The high cost Of government has
supplied the supporters of Frank o.
Lowden the platform on which they
are confident he will be elected presi-
dent of the United States.
Governor Lowden was born on
farm and worked his way through
school by teaching. He Is a product
of the Middle West, having been born
in Minnesota. raised in Iowa and then
coming to Chicago. He worked as a
clerk in a chicago law Office for SO a
week while preparing for his profess
sion. Later he entered politics. He
was thrice elected congressman from
the Thirteenth Illinois district before
voluntarily retiring.
He was elected governor of the
state in 1916 by a tremendous plu-
rality and his record as chief execu-
tive has put him IN the list Of presl-
dental possibilities. Friends of the
governor explain that he had to ne
dragged into the race for president
Certainly he does not seem to worry
about the outcome Of the campaign.
81 think one Of the greatest needs
of the country today is stronger,
finer, happier Americanism," said Gov
ernor Lowden. 1--WE can compel aliens
to respect our form of government,
or get out, and that we must do. At
the same time we are under the pro-
found necessity of earning that re-
spect from all right thinking men. We
arg hearing strong preachments
against profiteering and extravaganza.
Yet 1t is hardly dawning on The pub
lie mind that I'VE can be paying excess
lively for government, as well as for
sugar, meat or fuel.
"Illinois formerly had 125 separate.
boards and commissions handling its
affairs. No one man, no score of men,
were responsible. A premium was
put on spending.
Under my administration these
bureaus have been consolidated into
nine departments, whose chiefs reside
at the state capital and are held in !,
dividually responsible. One effect of
this has been to reduce the tax rate
of the state 33 per cent in two years
Adoption of budget system has been
a valuable adjunct in saving the tax
payers money. ! think efficiency and 1
economy in government Is one might, 1
step in the direction Of improved !
Americanism."

OKLAHOMA STRONG
FOR LoWDEN

Gov. Frank o. Lowden, of Illinois,
is the first choice of the republicans
of Oklahoma for president according
to the poll of the New York Sun and
Herald.
Lowden received CTS per cent of
all the votes sent in by county chair
men. Senator johnson and Gov. Col
ledge split the remaining vote be-
tween them.
BRISBANE SAYS LOWDEN PAYS
HIS OWN CAMPAIGN EXPENSES
Arthur Brisbane, writing in the edi
torial pages of Hearst's Chicago Her
aid and Examiner, has this to say re-
garding the financial expenditures
of presidential candidates:
'Lowden, governor Of Illinois, Of
fers Senator Borah all facts concern
ing presidential campaign expenses.
This must be said for Mr.. Lowden.
What money he spends is Lowden's
money. This makes difference. If
a man spends his money money, and
is elected, he owns himself after
election. When man spends some
body else's money the owners of the
money that he spent may own him."

A GOVERNMENT DIVISION FOR
EVERY SPECIES OF BEAR
IN ALASKA

"There is not an activity of gov
eminent in Washington which is not
parcelled out and which is not being
administered in from two or three to
forty or more different departments
bureaus or divisions or subdivisions
of government, said Gov. Frank o.
Lowden in recent address at Bay
City, Michigan.
"My attention was called only
yesterday to the fact that there are
three different kinds of bear in the
territory of Alaska and that there
is an Independent division of gov
eminent to look after each of these
three species, each independent of
the other two"
