convincing proof that the kidneys and blad

r What to Io.
There Is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatisnl, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects Inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
It, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
daring the day, and to get ip many times
during the night. The mild and the extra-
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realfced. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most cisessing cases.

husband.
HEPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Rockbridge. 111.. Sept. L The citizens of
Rockbridge are still puzzled over the trag
edy of yesterday In which Doctor A. O. Mil
ler shot his wife In the parlor of their home
and then took a fatal potion of Uncture of
opium which ended his life three hours later
in the Greene County Jail at Carrollton.
The body of Doctor Miller was brought
from Carrollton at midnight by Undertaker
Dannel of Greenfield. W. A. Allen, the
father of the dead woman, at first would
not consent to permit the body to entw
the Miller home, but later reconsidered his
action, and before daylight it was placed
In one of the rooms of the residence to
await the day of the funeral.
The body of the murdered wife lies In an
adjacent room. The funeral services over
Mrs. Miller will be conducted to-morrow
afternoon at 2 o'clock from the home. The
Reverend Henry Dixon, pastor of the
Mount Pleasant Baptist Church at Medora,
will officiate. The burial win be In the Witt
Cemetery, two miles southwest of Rock
bridge, where the body will rest beside
that of her grandparents.
DOCTOR A. O. MILLER.
Of Rockbridge. 111., who shot his wife to
death Sunday morning and then drank
poison.
Mr. Allen would not permit the body of
Doctor Miller to be burled beside that of
his daughter. Arrangements have been
made for Its burial In the North Cemetery
at Greenfield, six miles north of here. The
details of the funeral have not been ar
ranged. J. G. Miller, father of the dead man. will
arrive to-m6rrow from Hunnewell, ICas.
Rockbridge Is situated In the heart of one
of the richest farming sections of the State.
A large portion of the residents are retired
farmers, and the village has long been
known for Its law-abiding citizens. The
tragedy of j estcrday Is the only one of con
sequence In the history of the town, save
the murder of Jacob Keeley. the village
druggist, seventeen years ago. Keeley's
slayer has never been apprehended.
MAJORITY WILL NOT RECOGNIZE
EXISTENCE OF NEW COMMITTEE.
Continued From Face One.
It has been arranged that the offices of Justices of the Peace and 'Constable are di
vided in the proportion of six to five, with the understanding that the Meriwether allot
ment is to be turned over to Ed Butler, a well-known member of the Democratic party.
Incidentally, it was made to appear at this meeting that a smaller allotment of the
offices had at one time been offered Meriwether, with the sum of Five Thousand Dollars
added; but Meriwether had insisted upon and had secured the better terms contained
in the said written agreement. . ,
It was also stated to your committee at the same meeting that an arrangement to
nominate and elect James Butler for the short term in the Twelfth District, and some
well known Republican for the long term, had been suggested as part of the plan, but
had not been adopted.
In presenting this statement the representatives of the City Central Committee so
appearing before us at first declared that the placing ot the Republican candidates for
the Supreme Court upon the Public Ownership ticket was part of the above bargain.
This statement was shown upon closer inquiry to be without foundation; so that the
agreement as entered into embraces the terms and the division of offices and patronage
hereinabove enumerated.
We find that said members of said committee have betrayed the trust reposed In
them as euch committeemen, and are guilty of an abuse of their power and of th usurpa
tion of authority that belongs to the electors alone. We find that said members of the
City'Central Commltl-t. S3 charged, by their acts have abandoned the party organization
of which they were members, as well as the principles and usages of the Republican
party: and that they have forfeited their places as members or the City Central Committee.

past three weeks.
The old City Committee, or Kerens organ

building. It Insists that the Executive Com
mittee had no Jurisdiction, and therefore
that its plans are not disturbed. Room 315

KERENS MET DEFEAT
BY A NARROW MARGIN.
When the State Committee, at Its meeting
last Saturday, delegated authority to the
Executive Committee "to make satisfactory
arrangements for the primary" with the
majority In the City Central Committee,
every one prophesied that the Kerens fac
tion would finally win. Though the City
Committee had repeatetdly refused to con
cede anything to the State Committee In Its
demand for a primary in which every one
would have a "fair deal" so efficacious has
the old cry of "harmony" been that the
politicians thought It would again prevail.
And it came within an ace of doing so.
Sure enough, when the City Committee met
at 9 o'clock yesterday morning. It passed
the following resolution for the edification
of the Executive Committee:
Whereas. There rwms to be on nnlott Impres
sion among; some Kepublicans oC this city that

and to satlsty every element of the party In the

DEBATED IN COMMITTEE
FOR MORE THAN AN HOUR.
The above was presented to the Executive
Committee at 1130. For an hour the Ex
ecutive Committee discussed the features
of the primary with the subcommittee from,
the City Committee, consisting of John B.
Owcn Thomas K. Ncldrlnghaus and Theo
dore KalbfelL
Though the Executive Committee was di
vided on stricUy factional lines, the eight
anti-Kerens members were considered "easy
money" by the two friends of Kerens. M.
C. Stark!ofr and Walter C. Dickey of
Kansas City represented the National Com
mitteeman, and did so with ability.
Against them were State Chairman Aklni.

proxy of Thomas W. Allen: Charles Nagel.
representing G. A. FInkclnburg, and A. F.
Shrlner, who had the proxy of John H.
Bothwell of Sedalla. -v
A recess was taken at 0230 unUl 130. Up
on reconvening, the subject was thoroughly
discussed. The representatives of Ker
ens were willing to do almost anything in
order to. keep control of the primary.
Colonel Kerens, at the meting of the City
Committee earlier In the day, had given In
structions to his friends to give up every
thing In order to save the legislative nomi
nees. Delay by the Executive Committee had an
effect in the corridor outside of the committee-room.
Minority members of the City
Central Committee, who had signed the
charges against the majority, began getting
uneasy. Then when the- rumor spread that
the Executive Committee was about to ac
cept the proposition of the Citv Committee
on a basis of equal representation, the con
sternation transformed the atmosphere Into
one fizzling blister of profanity.
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
ACCUSED OF BAD FAITH.
They accused the Executive Committee of
bad faith In promising to oust the majority
In the City Committee If tho charges were
filed.
They referred to Instances in different
wards, where the Judges and clerks ot the
Kerens element wre said to b prize fighters
and crooks, who would not hesitate to do
business around the polls when the occa
sion arrived.
About 4 o'clock John B. Owen and Theo
dore D. Kalbfell left the room of the Ex
ecutive Committee for the Temple building,
where the majorty of the City Committee
were waiting. On en and Kalbfell had ac
cepted personally the following proposition,
but said that they could not sign it with
out authority from the City Committee:
We do not care to discuss further the ques
tions ot the past, but desire to act In the spirit
of the btate Committee's Instructions. We there
fore accept the offer submitted to us by the Re
publican City Central Committee In so far as It
pertain to the appointment of Judges, clerks
and challengers for the coming primary election,
provided that neither committee Is understood to
naive any claim of authority or Jurisdiction
which It may have arsertrd. and provided it la
rtlrtlnctly understood that in every Instance he
Ilxecuttve Committee of the Republican State
Committee or its subcommittee shall desirnate

subcornlttee. then and In that event such vacan
cies snail Inesch and every Instance be niled tn

said Executive Committee or Its subcommittee.
When the minority discovered what was
up and had their suspicions confirmed, they
promptly held an indignation meeting.
Among them were Billy Broeker. Billy
Hahn. Billy Blake. Billy Schllngmann and
others. They called Charles Nagel out of
the committee-room and told him that ,..
would resign from the City Committee, re- 1
