Gralow ami wife , the latter having been Miss Irma Cody prior to her marriage.

From the Black Hills country the party will re turn over the Northwestern line , stop ping at practically every station In Nebraska. The Third District. Fremont Tribune : Republican can didates for congress in the Third dis trict are backward about coming for ward , and it should not be so. That there should be a situation in which a man like Mr. Latin should he con ceded to be dilllcult to defeat is not in the interest of legislative elllclency. If ho were kept in congress for fifty I years he would not prove a capable ; legislator , for he lacks the qualifica tions for that kind of work. This is not be construed to mean that ho is not a good citizen , for ho will gO as far as the next one , according to all reports , to relieve a sick or distressed ' neighbor. It is to bo construed as meaning only that Mr , Latta's quail- ! flcations as a legislator extend no further than that he can provide a tat nocketbook for making a campaign There are not ten men In the district who would he willing to say thai vere it not for his money bags Mr Latta would never have been though ! of as a candidate for congress. Is this not tine ? Then when we reflect a little further we are forced to admll it is supremely absurd In these days to elect a man on his money qualifi cations alone. For we have been 'doing some boasting about legislating 'against the pernicious practice of scat tering campaign funds abroad for the election of candidates. We have beeu citing that as evidence of our polit ical progress and our moral growth We have a law on the books forbid ding a congressional candidate spend ing more than $500 , yet Mr. Latta's candidacy rests on the fact that ho can spend many times that sum with out being pinched. We doubt if oven . he would deny that his election two years ago cost fifteen or twenty times that amoiunt. I Since Mr. Latta has only his pock et hook for his platform , republicans should have a candidate who can make a stumping contest against him. They need one who can take the ros truin and give the plain facts In a convincing way , that the vo.ters may understand them. The democrats ex pect to rely on the maxim that "money talks , " but republicans , not likely to he able to cope with them In this particular manner , should have a can didate who can talk. Of course his republicanism must also be of the progressive kind. To Tax Autos $1 Per h. p. Governor Shallenberger Has Plan for Keeping up Country Roads. Lincoln , April 2. "I shall recom mend to the legislature that the tax on automobiles shall bo based on the horse-power of the machine , " said Governor Shullenborger discussing the suggestion he recently made. "I shall recommend the enactment of a law which provides that for every horsepower - power the owner shall pay $1 tax each year and that this money shall be deposited In a fund known ad the good roads fund. The law will provide that the money derived from the tax on automobiles shall be apportioned hack to the counties In which the owners live. 1 shall recommend that this tax ' bo In lieu of all others on this class ' of property. "Many of the eastern states have such a law and as a result they are j getting good roads very rapidly and , at little cost In so far as the general public Is concerned. I have heard 'rom a number of owners of auto- uohlles and they have endorsed the dea and I believe there are very few who will object to the tax. "As a matter of fact , the money saved the owners of automobiles by good roads will soon repay them for he additional tax. " SATURDAY SIFVINGS. Louis Kranso of Hosklns was In the city.

The family sur rey with "Old Tom" was half a block up the street. On the way Mr. White met several friends , including a can didate for mayor and a commissioner , This caused a little delay , for Miss Morgan insisted particularly on see ing a Kansas town as It is every day.

President Taft has allowed It to be made public that he has made up his mind as to whom ho will appoint to be associate justice of the United States supreme court to succeed Justice Brewer. Of course , he will make no move in the direction of making the appointment until after the funeral of Justice Hrewer and it Is believed by some that he has let the Information that he has made his selection become pub lic for the purpose of keeping away the advocates of the various men who are or will be candidates. The rumors In political circles that the chosen man Is Lloyd W. Bowers , now solicitor general of the United States , the next highest olllce under the attorney general , are more per sistent today than ever , and It is Mowers' name that Is spoken on every hand when people who profess to have information discuss the matter. The talk has become so general here that there Is already a backlire started by men who think that a man so recently an attorney for a great railroad ought not to be sent direct to the highest judicial position in the country. The objection is made that a rail road attorney may be as good a man as anyone and is pretty sure to ho a good lawyer , but his habits of thought , his view of public things are influenced by his occupation and that a man who comes from some other sort of position ought to be preferred. If Bowers is appointed the president is pretty sure to be severely criticised and the fact that the criticism is already starting with no other basis than the rumors that he Is the chosen man may result In the president nam ing someone else and letting his crit ics see that they have spoken too soon. soon.Unless Unless the matter has clearly been disposed of there will be a meeting of the Kansas delegation in both houses the dav after the Mineral and the question of backing Judge W. C. Hook of Leavenworth. now judge of the United States circuit court of ap peals , will be considered. As a mat ter of fact , It has already been con sidered to the extent that all the Kansans - sans hero know that if there seems to he a chance for the Kansas man , every member from his state In both house and senate will Indorse him for the honor and most of them will become active workers in his behalf. AS TARIFF DATA. Reports to Government of Corporation Will Serve Double Purpose. Washington. April 2. Industries claiming that a large tariff Is neces sary to permit them to do business will be confronted , when the tariff Is next revised , with their returns under the corporation tax. If their state ments are found to be true the re turns will be accepted as evidence that a high tariff is needed but If they are not true It will discredit their testi mony and result in drastic action. This was one of the chief complaints during the taking of testimony by the house ways and means committee by manufacturers asking revision upward In the last congress and the fact that President Taft and his advisors saw- in the corporation tax this particular phase for Its use was made public by olllclals in the treasury department today.
