YOUR DOLLAR

the Mail-Order House A elance through
our adyertistnz columns will give you an
idea where it will buy the most.
Wanted To buy a five or six room
house or vacant lot. in the uorthwest
part of the city, W. H. Holtz.
Following the addition of. two vic
tims to the death list at Springfield,
III., unorndlo outbursts of law
lessness In various parts of tho city
and Increased symptoms generally
that the mob spirit still rules Spring
field. Governor Deneen Issued six proc
lamations offering rewards aggregating
$1,200 for the arrest and conviction
of the murderers of the riot victims.
The death list now numbers seven,
but since one death was due only In
directly to the disturbances, no olll
clal notice has been taken of it.
Tho two now victims wete 'J. W.
Scott and a throe weeks' old negro
girl, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Lawrence Paine of Springfield. The
baby succumbed to exposure when
its parents started to walk from
Springfield to Pittsfleld In an effort to
avoid persecution. Scott died In a hos
pital of wounds received Friday night.
Scattered sections of the city were
in an uproar at different times during
the night. Harvard Park was again
the storm center. Twice patrols were
tired upon in that vicinity, but in
neither case was any ono injured.
Over In the western end of town,
in the vicinity of the state house and
arsenal, there were severnl cases of
revolver flrimr by rowdies. Tho
marauders traveled in groups of two
or three, obeying the orders of tho
militia patrols to keep moving, but
as soon ns they were well past the
groups of soldiers they drew revolvers,
llred Into the air and lied down side
streets, escaping In the darkness.
Two smull flros, apparently not con
nected with the rioting, added to tho
excitement and served to frighten
timid residents. As a consequence
calls for troops were frequent and tho
militia had a hard night.
Another Death Expected.
Another death is expectod momen
tarily. V H. Howe, chief clerk In
the county treasurer's olllco ami one
or the most popular citizens of Spring
held. Is slowly taking from the effect
of the bullet wounds and tho beating
he received from a crowd or negroes
Friday night. Uowe's friends have
Varned the authorities that Billy will
he avenged and that tho event of his
death will cause a redoubling of the
vigilance of tho troops' commanders.
"Walt until tho troops go," is the
word that has been passed around
town and, recognizing the strength of
the undercurrent the state, city and
county otnclals are making every to
restore public order.
To that end Governor Deneen Is in
conference with vnrlou3 civic bodies.
Evidence is not lacking that many
citizens known to have important tes
timony regarding the mob and lead
era have been deterred from offering
It because of threats of violence made
against them anonymously.
"The riot could scarcely nave ueen
avoided and Is not in itsolf a disgrace
to the city. The real disgrace will
come If the guilty are allowed to es
capo," Is the slogan of the authorities.
So the civic bodies are asked to urge
ail good citizens to reveal whatever
of testimony they may possess.
Tho gathering of evldotice bus- be
gun in earnest. Policemen In plain
clothes were sent to search the houses
of prisoners and suspects and as a
result the police station looks like a
general store. Groceries, hardware;
men's, boys and women's clothing;
dry goods and shoes were recovered
in great quantities, most of them hear
ing the price tags of the looted busi
ness houses. Naturally many arrests
followed. Eighty prisoners were
crowded into the small cell room at
the police station, tho lack o? comfort
being such that only the cement floor
is available for sleeping space.
The oxodus of the negroes from
Springfield seems to be permanent.
A visit to the former black town
brought out tho fact that tho homes
so .quickly deserted Saturday are still
vacant and promise to remain so
A statement from several prominent
hotel men brought out that the
negroes aro not wanted as waiters,
porters and bellboys at the Spring
field hostolrles. All are securing
white help.
Private Klein Exonerated.
The court of Inquiry which consid
ered Private Klein's case was com.
posed of Major James Miles, Captains
Jacob JmUon and S F. High and Llou
tenant F. A. Guilford, all of the First
Illinois. After sitting all day, they re
ported to Adjutant General Scott that
Klein's act was performed In the
strict line of duty. Klein had been
placed as one of a guard of the bag
gage car on the first section of tho
Illinois Central train which brought
the First infantry to Springfield. Tho
train was a special one and the bag
gage car contained property owned
by the state. Klein, guarding the
tront door, was Instructed by Ueuton
nnt Guilford to allow no one to enter
the car. At Kankakoe four young
men, according to the report, climbed
to tho front platform and attempted
to enter' the car. Kloln barred the
way, using the only weapon available,
a bayonet, as me tram siarieu iuo
four youth.s left the platform. Klein
was not aware that Nelson or any
one had boon injured. State Attorney
Cooper of Kankakee probably will In
stitute ttetion against Klein in the
criminal court at Kunkakee.

Noted Evangelist P3ses Away at His
Home In Brooklyn.
Ira D. Sankey, the evangelist, dleJ
in Brooklyn. Mr. Sankey wdh sixty
eight years old. For the last five
years ho had been blind and had suf
fered lrom u complication of disease!
brought on by overwork, hut almost
to the very last ho worked at hymn
writing. His first tour throughout
this country, with Dwlght L. Moody,
the evangelist, brought him into wide
prominence. Sankey, It might bo said,
wrote tho gospel hymns of tho world.
In China, India, Japan, In almost
overy langtiago known to man, San
key's hymns are sung. Sankoy first
met Moody at a Young Mcn'3 Chris
tian association convention In Indian
apollB. Moody was so charmed with !
the young man's voice that he urged
him to accompany him on his evangel-'
Istic tours. They visited Great Brit-'
aln from 1873 to 1875 and again In (
18S3 and mode many touts through
out tho United States. When Mr
Moody died Mr, Sankey Telt keenly
the loss or his friend. From that time
ho tried to conduct the work alone
which they had hitherto shared be
tween them, but the task was too
great. In 1902 his physical condition
compelled htm to give up most of hla
evangelical engagements, although he ,
continued for some time to compile a .
series of hymnbooks. Then came
falling eyesight, which speedily devol-'
oped Into total blindness. With th ,
blindness came also a nervous break- j
down. Mr. Sankey lived in Brooklyn j
for twenty-seven years, and It was
there that most of his songs were
Written. Ho was a singer from boy
hood and' his voice attracted attention
In the hamlet of Edenburg, Pa., where
he was bom Aug. 28, 1840. At the be
ginning of hid actlvo life, Mr. Sankey
was a Methodist, but for the last
seven years he had been a Presby
terian. Ho Is survived by a widow,
Fannie V. Sankey; his two sons, I
Allen Sankey and Edward Sankey,
and two grand children.

American Sailors Win Praise for Be

The American Atlantic fleet depart
ed from Auckland for Sydnoy Sat
urday morning at 8 o'clock. Th
weather was lino and large crowds
were ashore and afloat to bid farewell
to the Americans. Excursion craft
loaded to the rails dotted the harbor.
As anchors were hoisted and the Ha
shin pointed her nose
mouth of tho harbor, pandemonium
reigned. The shore batteries belched
forth parting salutes, which were an
swered by tho American ships, and
the whistles and sirens on the excur
slon flotilla resounded across the bar
hor and were re-echoed by the distant
hills. The American ships wero kept
busy dipping their Hags in answer to
the salutations of the New Zeahmders.
The Heet steamed with precision of
alignment out of the harbor and many
of the excursion craft followed It far J

A TASK FOR REFORMERS
I HE effort to reform humanity should not always begin at
the bottom. Sometimes It is wise to begin at the top,
and sometimes In the middle and always where the
soil is worth the seed.
In speaking of this matter recently a man of wide busi
ness experience said:
"There Is a big field waiting for reformers. It is not
among the so-called lower classes, where so much reform
effort is spent, and where a good deal of It 13 no doubt
wasted. It Is among the people who are represented by the
'average employe in our great mercantile and Industrial In
stitutions. It is a sad fact that only a very small percentage
1 ! rf tho nnnnln arn rnallu in en meat that Is. are really try-
Ing to do their best."
"What per cent would you say?" I asked.
Not over five per cent," he replied. "I really think that
would be a high estimate."
"Oh, you can't mean that!" I exclaimed.
"Yes I do," he asserted. "It may vary a little in differ
ent establishments, and In different kinds of work, but In
general that is just about vmere the matter stands. My ob
servations are wide, and covr a period of twenty years.
Something should be done to turn back the tide of Indiffer
ence and shlftlessness which spreads through this class of
employes In nearly every business establishment."

notification, however. Is welcome, and
the nomination you tender me is ac

mensurate with the great honor con
ferred; accepted with a full apprecia
tion of the obligations which accompa

my name is linked with that of Will
iam H. Taft, whom I respect and esteem
highly and who approaches the high
office of president exceptionally well
equipped to discharge the duties and
bear the varied and weighty responsi

acceptance could not be made with

tion as the Republican candidate for
president. .
"That speech fully and compre
henslvely discusses the Issues ot this

it is appropriate that my statement
should be short. Those not convinced
by the presentation of Mr. Taft I
could not hope to persuade. It 13.
however, in conformity with custom
that I refer at least briefly to some
of tho important issues of the cam
paign. "First, then, let me say that I am
a protectionist. I am sufficiently prac
tical to value the utility of a fact
higher than the beauty of a theory,
and I am a protectionist because ex
perience has demonstrated that the
application of that principle has lifted
us as a nation to a plane of prosperity
nbove that occupied by any other
people.
"I especially commend that plank
of our platform which promises an
early revision of tariff schedules
That pledge will be fulfilled In an ad
justment based In every particular
upon the broad principles of protec
tion for all American Interests, alike
for labor, for capital, for producers
and consumers. Tho Dingloy bill
when enacted was well adapted to the
then existing conditions. The devel
opments of industrial prosperity In a
decade, which in volume and tlegree
have surpassed our most roseate ex
pectations, have so altered conditions
that in certain details ot schedule
they no longer lu every particular
meto out justice to all. In this re
adjustment the principle of protec
tion must and will govern.
"Tho Republican party believes in
the equality of all men before the
law; believes in granting labor's
every request that does not seek to
accord riKhts to one man denied to
another. j
His Record in Congress. (
"I have helped to make my party's 1
record in tho enactment of the eight-!
hour law, the employers' liability act,
the statutes to minimize the hazard
of railroad employes, the child labor
law for the District or Columbia and
other enactments designed especially
to improve the conditions of labor I
