Omaha Dm I mmi Wis.
Washington, Aug. 5 Admlnistra-
tion leaden who have been watching
the remarkable political embroglio
which hai developed in Texas we
of the opinion that this may afford
an opportunity lor winning a repub
lican senator, even in uch a demo
cratic stronghold the Lone Mar
nate. With the democrati divided,
as it ii inevitable that they will be
on tuch intense issues at the Ku
Klux Klan and modification of t.ie
Volstead law there is reason to as
sume that an Independent republican
would be a strong contender in No
vember. With the primaries in the middle
west disoosed of this week much in
terest will be felt in this runoff
primary in Texas, which occurs Au
gust 26. The contenders for aena
torial honors are Earle B. Msyfield
of Austin, at present a member of
the state railroad commission, who
is expected to have the support of
the militant prohibitionists as well
as the Ku Klux Klan, and James E
Ferguson of Temple, the governor
who was impeached but who has
staged a wonderful "comeback."
Ferguson is running on a light wine
and beer platform and it the hope of
the very considerable faction among
Texas democrats who feet that vic
tory for the Ku Klux Klan is a
menace to the orderly processes of
good government
Breach Inevitable.
The clash of advocates of these
two leaders, holding ideas so dia
metrically opposed one to another is
bound to result in a breach of con
siderable magnitude in the demo
cratic ranks of Texas. So much in
fact 'that plans already are in the
making to contest the right of either
one to a seat in the senate regardless
of which is victorious. ,
ihc certainty of such a contest,
tne, result ot which would long be in
doubt, is looked upon as another
factor to aid a republican candidate.
Wayne B. Wjieeler, general coun
sel for the Anti-Saloon league, an or
ganization which wields more power
than any other one agency in Wash
ington outside of the government,
has declared his intention of fighting
Ferguson "at every turn of the road."
He insists that Ferguson is unfit
Jto sit in the senatj and, if elected,
that the Texan's right to do so will
be challenged on the ground that he
was impeached and removed from of
fice by the legislature of his state.
There are some senators who are in
clined to doubt such a fight could be
successfully waged against Ferguson,
particularly when it could be shown
that politics entered into his im
peachment, but the Anti-Saloon
league has a way of winning that is
characterized as uncanny.
Member of Klan.
However,, should it be Mayfield,
he, too, would be compelled to ;run
the gauntlet of senatorial investiga
tion on the basis of his Ku-Klux-Klan
connections. It has been re
peatedly charged that Mayfield is a
member of the klan and as such has
taken an oath which will preclude
th nn rnnirpft a, TTnitH tt!ite
senator. A similar contest was filed
in 1903 when Reed Smoot of Utah
first came to the senate and when
it was charged that a an apostle in
the Mormon church he had taken an
oath which made him ineligible as
United States senator. Smoot's right
to his seat was confirmed after two
years, but Brigham Roberts, also of
Utah, was denied a seat in the house
about the same time under circum
stances quite similar, Morover, it
should be borne in mind that Smoot
was a republican, tried by a body in
which the majority were members of
his party, the senate dividing in his
case, 28 to 42.
Mayfield would have no such ad
vantage. In fact, the reverse would
be true, as he could hardly count on
the vote of lour democratic senators
who are members of the Catholic
church, the curbing of which is a
cardinal principle of the Ku-KJux-Klan,
Communists Slain by
Homeless Peasants
Riga, Aug. S. The number of
roving bands of homeless peasants
and deserters from the red army is
increasing through soviet Russia,
according to the Moscow Isvestia,
which states that the soviet govern
ment is finding it difficult to maintain
order in many districts.
1 In Vitebsk, Homel, and in the
Smolensk provinces and throughout
White Russia, the provinces border
ing Poland, the bandits have been
traveling openly from village to vil
lage; murdering the communists, the
Isvestia reports, stating that the
medilval custom of "drawing and
quartering" has been revived by the
bandits, who, after hanging the com
munists, cut them into pieces and
hang them in conspicuous positions
throughout the villages, as a warn
ing to communist bands of tax
gatherers.
"Near Vitebsk, on the River
Dvina. bandits boarded a steamer
and killed IS Jews and a red guard
detachment," reports the Isvestia.
"Throughout the dirtrict of Homel
the population is conducting pogroms
through force of the habit engendered
by the Polish government."
The article contains other insinua
tions that the Poles are instigating
the peasant uprisings, but in the ma
jority of cases it is because of the
confiscation of the church property.
Oldest Sassafras Tree
Given First Treatment
Atlanta, Ga.', Aug. 5. After
weathering several centuries what is
declared to be the oldest and the
largest sassafras tree in existence is
receiving first aid from a tree sur
geon. The tree, which measures about
nine feet in circumference,, stands on
- the lawn of the First Methodist
Church here.
Recently it began to show signs of
old age, and the board of stewards

Gorgeous fantasies of American
Indian life, to be shown at Ak-Sar-Ben
pageant next month, have been
chosen for illustration by the pageant
illustrator, Miss Olive Rush.
One of these is the "Gladiatorial
Sacrifice," in which the victim was
allowed to fight for his life, though
the fight was in vain because he had
inferior weapons and was smaller
than "his opponent. The moment Miss
Rush has 'chosen in her drawing
shows the priest waiting in the back
ground for the victim to fall, when
he will rush forward and wrench the
heart from the body, an offering to
the god of war.
Coronado's Glory Showa
The other original drawing by Miss
Rush shows the barge of Coronado
drawn up at the bank of the great
river of Quivera, and the monarch
and his prophet landing and being
greeted by the women of Quivera,
who swav branches of the fabled
tree, tinkling with bells of silver and
gold. The costumes are combina
tions of Aztec, Inca and other bar
baric Indian designs, brilliant and
bizarre.
These original drawings are cor
rect in costume and coloring as far
as . historic data can reveal, and the
costuming of the living models in
the pageant will be modeled in ac
cordance with the paintings.
' Illustrator Widely Known.
Miss Rush is well known as a
magazine and book illustrator and
also as a portraitist of children, in
which field she has won conspicu
ous honors. Her work has been ex
hibited in Paris and in the national
academy, Pennsylvania academy,
Corcoran and other American gal
leries. Miss Rush has been living in re
cit years in Santa Fe, N. M., where
htr paintings of Indian subjects have
been made. She is also known for
her frescoes that adorn public build
ings in Wilmington, Del., Indian
apolis and other cities. She has dis-

A Saracen mosque in Cordova, a 16th Century
Cathedral in Toledo, and a bit of grill-work saved
from Napoleon's" armies by a coat ofblack paint, are
the design sources of three Beverly Lights made in
the Spanish manner.
Beverly design is never arbitrary. To reproduce in
the Cordova and Toledo brackets, and Seville chan
delier the spirit of Spain's master iron workers, our
designers searched through 400 years of art-history.
Beverly Lights are Moderately Priced
Beverly Lights look costly because they are authenti
cally designed and soundly constructed. Yet the
prices quoted are low, even when compared with the
cost of ordinary fixtures. The Beverly Dealer in your
city will be glad to show you the Beverly Lights that
will complete the beauty of your home.
