TO TAKE UP CONTESTS
Rational Republican Committee Will
Meet in ChU-ago June 6.
Xew "Fork, May 9. The - Republi
can national committee will meet in
Chicago Thursday afternoon. June 6,
to decide contests among delegates to
the. Republican national convention.
Tilt? call for the meeting has been is
sued by 'William Hayward, secretary
of the committee. This will be the
earliest meeting held for many years
by the committee and it will give it
twelve days to consider contests be
fore the convention open. June 18.
Indications that there will be an
unusual number of contests this year.
Mr. Hayward said, had been consider
ed by Victor Rosewater, the commit
tee's acting chairman, and himself, in
pending out the call for the early
tire committee.
Mr. Hayward also announced that
he would place before the committee
a plan upon which he- has been work
ing for some time that will affect the
representation of the south "in Repub
lican national conventions. The plan
he would submit to the committee
would change the basis of representa
tion, he said.
"What we want to do, if possible,"
Mr. Hayward said, "is to get the com
mittee together early enough to have
sufficient time to consider these con
tests deliberately and avoid holding
night sessions, .which, were jvecessary
before. The sessions probably will be
executive, as heretofore, and the- con
tests will all be considered by the en
tireeommittee -
"We have received some notices of
contests, but -nowhere near as many as
reported by the newspapers. Also we
have not received anywhere near all
the credentials from the various dele
gates in districts and states where
there are no contests. However, we
expect to receive many more yet."
Mr. Hayward added that the com
mittee would move the office of the
secretary into the Coliseum at Chicago
in a few days.
"The question of southern represen
tation that has been agitated in every
convention that I can remember," Mr.
Hayward said,, "will probably be acted
upon by the committee in the nature
of a recommendation to the conven
tion. While in my opinion a major
ity of the delegates to the conventions
has been heartily in favor of making
a change in' that regard, the difficulty
has been that they did not desire to
abandon the congressional district as
a. unit of representation.. The south
ern districts have representation in
congress according to population, In
cluding negroes'. Then, the negroes
are disfranchised."

T. A. McXeal was chosen as tem

meeting will be held next Wednesday
evening at which time permanent or

final organization is composed of E. E.

Dr. Roby, who 'has been an advo
cate of suffrage for 50 years and who
has written a song which is used in
suffrage campaigns, was one of the
enthusiastic speakers. Ike Gilberg de
clared that men had failed to solve the
problems of government, and that con
sequently he would speak to the work
ing people urging them to vote for
suffrage for women to see if they can't
do better. Dr. S. J. Crumbirie was
among those who had suggestions to
make.

Spirit of Unrest Does Sot Pre
Tail There.
Xew Tork, May 9. In some parts of
the south there appears to be a better
understanding than exists in other
parts of the country of the fundamental
causes of tue spirit of unrest which is
being voiced chiefly in political agita
tions, and to some extent in the de
mands of organized labor. For in the
south there has been a sincere attempt
wisely to bring about a cordiality of
relations between that kind of democ
racy which represents equality of op
portunity in all political relations and
that peculiar kind of aristocracy to
use the word for want of a better
which is due to the great increase of
wealth which, in turn, has been occa
sioned by the amazing development of
inventive talent in the United States
and the conquest of some of the laws
of nature so that they may subserve
material purposes. '
There appears to be less unrest in
many parts of the south, relatively, at
least, than has been observed in other
sections of the United States, particu
larly the midwest and the remoter west
and some of tee maiiulacturmjr dis
tricts. Mr. Oscar Underwood, for instance
the leader of the Democratic majority
in the lower house of congress, is re
ported by some of his friends in this
city to believe that the prevailing un
rest is due to the friction which u?
caused by the attempt to adjust newly
created conditions which have result
ed from , the .application of electricity
and steam and marvelously constructed
labor-saving appliances-to the condi
tion of political equality. He believes
that the way will be found by which
this friction will be eliminated. When
it is, much of the unrest will disappear.
That, too, is understood to be the view
of the governor of Texas, the governor
of South Carolina, and has oeen pro
claimed as the. view of the recent gov
ernor of Georgia who is now United
States senator, Hoke Smith. This
opinion was freely expressed at the
recent meeting of the advocates of the
reclamation of the swamp lands in the
Mississippi valley, which was held at
Xew Orleans.
"But perhaps the best evidence of the
manner in which the south is endeavor
ing to adjust new conditions with the
old and fundamental spirit of political
equality is contained in an exhaustive
study of the industrial growth ;of .the
south within the past ten years prepar
ed for the Manufacturers' Record of
Baltimore.
The South's Industrial Growth.
These ten years are also the years in
which this spirit of unrest spread over
the entire country. At the beginning of
the decade there were in progress the
massive combinations of capital, ability
and skilled artisanship which wer
sometimes called trusts, and are now
known as "big business." In the year
1899 the entire south including Okla
homa, whose industrial growth has
relatively surpassed that of any other
section of the Union within a like per
iod of time had invested one billion,
a hundred and ninety-six million dol
lars in manufacturing. In the same
year the entire United States had, in
the way of like investment, a little un
der 9 billion dollars.
Ten years later that is to say, in
1909, the latest year which has furnish-

ed accurate .- statistics there were. - in
Tound numbers. . billion.- 900 million
dollars invested in: southern industrial
undertakings, outside .of ; agriculture,
while in the' same year the total in
vestment of like-character in the whole
United ' States ' Was 18 billions. - - The
story of Oklahoma is an amazing one.
In 1899. only 4 million dollars was in
vested in factories .there, whereas in
1909 nearly 40 millions was thus in
vested in that state. That is an in
crease of 8S0 per cent, and there is no
other state In the Union that can show
like figures nor in any recent time has
any state made a record which may be
compared with fty In the east -we
think of Missouri ' as an agricultural
and mining state, but the statistics
gathered by the Manufacturers' Record
show that in 1909 nearly 450- million
dollars was invested in manufacturing
undertakings in that state. And the
states which until recently were deem .
ed exclusively agricultural have shown
an amazing Increase in the' investment
of capital in. factories. Texas, which
was formerly regarded as a cotton,
rice and grain raising state exclusively,
in 1909 had 217 million dollars- invested
in factories, almost exactly the amount
of like investment in the- state of Vir
ginia in that year. . .:.....'
. It used to be thought that NOrth Car
olina was a somewhat stagnant state,
her people not understanding the superb
resources contained in a state which
extends from the Appalachian range
by gradual descent to the sea. That
opinion can no longer be held, if it -were
ever justified, for in the Old Xorth state
there was nearly 218 million dollars in
vested in factories in the year 1909.
The Effect of It.
The social and economic effect of so
striking an increase in the investment
of money in manufacturing in a sec
tion of the country which for many
yeare was regarded as almost wholly
agricultural furnishes a ttriking proof
of the fact that material prosperity of
this kind can be attained without caus
ing violent industrial, commercial , or
political friction. In no par of the
United States at the present time is
there less friction, both social and poli
tical, than is the case throughout the
south. Apparently everybody there is
striving to gain a fair share of the ma
terial prosperity which has come to
the south, but the struggle for advan
tage of this kind occasions -no animos
ities. ;
Then, again, the statistics obtained
by the Manufacturers' Record show the
increase in the number of employees
who receive salaries as distinguished
from wages in the statos of the south
in ten years. Salaries represent abil
ity, great and small, according , to the
amount received. In 1899 there were in
the ; entire south -- only 55,000 persons
who -received salaries from manu
facturing corporations: or partnerships.
Ten years later - the' number; had in
creased to a hundrer and twenty-four
thousand. Then, again, in the year 1899
eight hundred and thirty-six thousand
persons received wages earned in fac
tory employment.' whereas in 1909 the
number was increased to one million,
two hundred and sixty-one thousand.
so that of the six million wage earners
of the United States who received
pay envelopes for employment in fac
tories one million.- two hundred and
sixty-one thousand earned their wages
m the south. . .
There is great significance in the fig
ures that tell of -"the primary horse
power in the southern states. In 1899
the primary horse power in Missouri
was a hundred -and ninety thousand
and in 1909 this had increased to three
hundred and forty, thousand. In the
state of Xorth Carolina primary horse
power in 1899 was -a hundred and fifty
four thousand, but it has increased by
the year 1909 to three hundred and
eighty thousand, and that increase is
reported to be due very largely to the
utilization in Xorth Carolina of its
water power for the creation of elec
tric energy for manufacturing pur
poses. This utilization of water power
in the south undoubtedly explains in
part the incre sea In primary horse
power in Alabama, Georgia and Ten
nessee. These figures clearly point to
a greatly-increased utilization of the
vast water power of th. south and
along the lines pointed out by Mr.
George Westinghouse in his address de
livered to the souern business con
gress at Atlanta in March of last year.
r The money value of the factory pro
ducts of the south in 1909 was three
billion, a hundred and sixty-eight mil
lion dollars, ' or more than double the
money value of factory products of the
south ten years eerlier. Notwithstand
ing this great increase in manufactur
ing industries in the 30uth, that sec
tion of the Union still maintains its
pre-eminence in agriculture. In 1900
there was invested in the southern
states about five billion dollars in agri
culture, whereas in 1910 this had in
creased to eleven billion3, or practically
one-fourth of the entire investment fn
agriculture in the United States. And
the number of persons operating farms
in the south .n 1910 was three million,
three hundred and sixty-three thousand
as compared with two million, eight
hundred and ninety-five thousand in
1900. '
In view, then, of the marvelous in
crease in invested capital in the south
and in the money value of the products
o-T the south, both industrial and agri
cultural relatively greater than in any
other section of the country there does
seem to be justification for the state
ment that the spirit of unrest so preval
ent in other parts of the country has
been subdued in the south, partially, at
least, because there the people are be
ginning to understand that there may
be adjustment between the old and new
conditions. HOLLAND.

"While we are satisfied that this
destruction was without evil intent,
the fact remain that the destruction

why, so far as the steel and wire

The opinion also says that it is not

Trenton, May 9. The application in

speaking of the application, says:
"No evidence - is offered that such
destruction is threatened and it need
hardly be said that evidence is essen

accused or convicted of what would

One feature of the afternoon parade

Mrs. X. Roberts, 1756 X. Waco avenue,

statement recently in connection with
"Tona Vita," the medicine that is now
being introduced in Topeka by speci
alists t the Arnold Drug Co., 523 Kan-,
sas avenue. - She said: . "I have been
sick for some time, I tried all kinds
of remedies without relief. I suffered
principally with stomach -trouble, ner
vousness and sleeplessness..
I was dreadfully tired most of the
time and never feit - well a moment,
but was always nervous and despond
ent. I seldom had a good appetite and
whenever -I did. eat would suffer-from
indigestion.
"I got some Tona Vita' and have
taken it regularly since. From the very
beginning I felt the good effects of the
new medicine and 1 now feel like a
woll healthy woman. I now seem to
get nourishment from my food and no
longer have stomach trouble or feel
tired and depressed. I have now taken
one bottle, and think it the best medi
cine on earth, for people suffering as
I did."-
The specialists who are here introduc
ing "Tona Vita" are giving demonstra

" 'Tona Vita' is breaking all records
in Topeka." said one of these special
ists this morning. "The people here arc
rapidly awakening to a full apprecia
tion of what the preparation will do for
them and the sale is large." continued
he "We are instructed by our com
pany to take no money for the tonic
unless the medicine proves satisfac
