DARK HORSE" CARVER HERE
But Pratt Banker Refuses to Discuss
Candidacy for Governor.

Thad c. Carver. prominent Pratt
banker and governorship possibility. is
in Topeka today But Carver is talk
ing about the improved crop prospects
and better business conditions rather
than politics None the less Carver is
one of the dark horses possibilities in
the governorship running and he
isn't out of it by any means.
THE recent rains and SHOWS have
done wonders for the wheat crop"
Carver asserted at the state house to-
day. Everyone is feeling better
Business conditions have been improy-
ing steadily for two months and the
outlook is better than at any time in
more than a year"
What about your announcement
for governor" was asked
Nothing just now" said the Pratt
banker.
Carver is looking things over. He
conferred with Governor Allen this
morning. Neither the governor nor
Carver would discuss the conference.
State house dope is to the effect that
they talked politics. Their talk fol-
lowed q conference which the gov
ernor held with Fred Trigg of Kansas
City, Mo, and Tom Bigger of Kansas
City, Kansas.
Out in Carver's home town the
Chamber of Commerce has started a
real boom for his nomination for gov
ernor- Political line-ups of the next
few weeks will doubtless determine the
course which the Pratt banker and
former state senator will take in the
primary campaign.

SAVES MOVIE FARE
Scrapping OF Ships as Expen-
sive as Building.
Out in West Each Citizen Saves
One Dollar.

Washington. March S-The naval
economy prOgram in congress will
give every American an extra trip to
the movies
That. in every day terms, is the
amount saved to the average citizen
under the proposed reduction naval
expenses as now intended by con-
gress. according to estimates of ma
val officers today. Out in the corn
belt where movies cost less and the
per capita tax is lower. John Citizen
probably will get all or two trips to
the movies.
Putting it another way if every
body would forego one fling at a typi-
cal Broadway show per annum and
donate il to the government. he could
maintain a first class navy painlessly.
Three posi- ilitses are gathered
from the latest statistics presented to
a congressional committee by Admiral
Coontz. chief of naval operations.
The treaty navy would cost about
81 annually per person. Congress
proposes to reduce this cost to what
would amount to little more than
$3.50 annually per capita. thus giving
each citizen less than so cents as
saved This is the price of the aver
age first class moving picture show.
Experts state that practically no
saving will be realized from scrapping
the ships under construction. as it
would cost only a little more to build
them than to break them up. How
ever. the completed navy would cost
$500 100000 annually. The new navy
will cost s450.OOO. 900. so that an an
nual saving of s15O.OOO,OOO is ef-
feoted.

K. K. K. Battle
RACES at Taft

Taft. Cal. March s.-Taft is an
armed camp today.
Not even in the days of the old
frontier did so many citizens carry
pistols as are doing so now thru fear
of the activities of the ku Klux Khan,
the night riders, the vigilantes or
whatever they may be.
Doors of homes are barricaded at
night. sawed-off shotguns are trained
on windows and .neighborhoods are
organizing for mutual defense.
And causing it all there seems to
be a mysterious battle being waged
behind a double mask of deepest Sc
crecy. Without the leaders or the
rank and file of either faction being
known. there appears to be two fac
tons in the field, each operating I'M
der the guise of the Ku Klux Khan and
one representing itself to be the other.
