‘HATES SOAP/ BALLOT ISSUE IN OKLAHOMA ‘Dirty Underwear’ Charge Is Hurled as State Votes on -Alfalfa Bill/ BV DON A. HIGGINS l nlled Prei Staff Correspondent OKLAHOMA CITY, Aug. 12 The homely philosophy and picturersque figure of William (Alfalfa Bill) Murray dominated the Oklahoma political scene today as Democrats cast their ballots for the party’s 1930 gubernatorial candidate. The run-off primary has devolved into a controversy over the candidacy of the self-styled “commoner.” who is opposed by Frank Buttram. oil millionaire and wellknown philanthropist. Murray has about him the air of the backwoods—and he delights in it. He chews tobacco, swears like a trooper, dresses like a plainsman—and appeals to the common people lor approval. His opponents have threatened to impeach him if he is tendered the position—and he calmly announces himself as a "candidate for impeachment.” Few of Oklahoma’s elections have passed without Murray's figure appearing somewhere on the horizon. He w-as author of the state’s Constitution. Later he was a congressman, and startled the national capital when he appeared in a ten-gallon hat, cowboy boots and baggy trousers. “I'll admit I haven’t million dollars,” Murray said, “but Lincoln had to borrow money for his inauguration, you know.” Oklahoma City newspapers and the feminine contingent expressed alarm over the possibility that Murray’s eccentricities might be placed in evidence at the Governor's mansion. "He despises soap and water,” one editorial said. “He lived for years without a bathtub, rarely wears a coat and appears in a dirty shirt. His underwear is dirty.

LIGHT VOTE IN OHIO FORESEEN Local Disputes Overshadow Major Contests. COLUMBUS, 0., Aug. 12.—The | Ohio electorate cast ballots today to ; nominate state, congressional and ■ senatorial candidates and in some instances settle local partisan disputes that overshadowed the major contests. A generally light vote, superinduced by lack of opposition in most of the Republican races, was expected. With only a few exceptions, the entire Republican slate of incumbents, including Governor Myers Cooper and United States Senator Roscoe C. McCullough automatically was nominated. On the Democratic side there were contests in every race except that of secretary of state, in which John Henry Newman of Columbus, automatically was nominated. George W. White -of Marietta, former congressman and Democrat national committeeman, was conceded an easy victory over Stephen M. Young. Cleveland wet, in the Democratic race for Governor. It was the Democratic senatorial race, in which five candidates were pitted, that drew attention. Os the five candidates, political observers picked Robert J. Bulkley, Cleveland wet; Charles V. Truax. Bucyrus, and W. W. Durbin, Kenton, to lead the ticket. Richmond Man, 84, Dies Bi / Times Snrrinl RICHMOND, Ind., Aug. 12.-WU-liam F. Starr. 84, president of the former John W.

NORRIS AS BOLTER IS NEBRASKA ISSUE

Voters to Polls as Charge That Senator Is Out of Party Sounds. Bu United Press LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 12.—The question of whether Senator George W. Norris should be punished for bolting his party in 1928 to support A1 Smith for President, rested today with Republican voters of Nebraska. Throughout the campaign, W. M. Stebbins, Norris’ chief opponent for the senatorial nomination, attacked the veteran senator vigorously for his “political heresy.” Repeatedly, Stebbins charged that Norris is “not a Republican in any sense of the word—either’ good or bad.” Norris looks to the farming classes of western Nebraska, whose favor he incurred by his activity as member of the farm bloc in congress,' to bring him successfully through another primary campaign. Outcome of the race is considered doubtful. Aaron C. Read, 85-year-old candidate on a “dripping wet” platform, is not expected to furnish much opposition to Norris and Stebbins In the Democratic senatorial race, Elbert M. Hitchcock, Omaha publisher and former senator, is op-

NEW HEALTH KONJOLA GAVE IS LASTING One Os First Users Os Famed Medicine In Indianapolis Is Still Praising It. The first requirement of any medicine is that it bring relief from the ailments it is designed to relieve. The second requirement is that this relief not be just temporary, but lasting. Konjola, the new and dis-

ferent medicine, has met both these requirements countless times even after all else tried had failed. Take, as an example of Konjola’s amazing merit, the case of Mr. John S. Miller, 1320 Brookside avenue, Indianapolis. Mr. Miller, age 62, took the Konjoia treatment when this famed medicine was first introduced in Indianapolis, four years ago, and is still enjoying good health. But get all the facts about the medicine that can do such things. Meet the Konjoia Man at the Hook Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washing„on streets, this city. . He will tell you how Konjoia works when pitted against the ills of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, and rheumatism, neuritis and nervousness. Now •read the grateful words of Mr. Miller: “Konjoia surely did the work for me, and after four years I still feel its wonderful results. About five years ago my ill health started with stomach trouble. I suffered from intense pains soon after eating, and I got so bad I could not eat a meal without having misery in my stomach afterward. Both my kidneys and liver were in a disordered condition, and I became badly constipated. My back hurt continually; my complexion was sallow, and I always felt tired and wem-out. “Finally after other medicines and treatments I tried had failed, this new medicine Konjoia was put on sale here in Indianapolis. I suppose I w-as one of the first in this city to try it. And Konjoia did for me all that was claimed for it. I began to feel better right from the. start of the treatment, and am glad to say that I am still enjoying the good health Konjoia gave.” Certainly this endorsement is proof that the splendid relief brought by this master medicine is not just temporary. Although Konjoia works quickly, it is recommended that a full treatment of from six to eight bottles be taken for best results. The Konjoia Man is at the Hook Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, where he is meeting the public daily, explaining the merits of this new and different medicine.

TONGS' TRUCE FEARED ENDED WITHKILLINGS Hip Sings and On Leongs Believed to Have Broken Peace Pledge. Ci/ United Press NEW YORK. Aug. 12.—The Hip Sings and On Leongs, traditional and bitter enemies through many years of warfare, were believed today to have broken the pact in which, only a few months ago, they agreed to ’ permanent” peace. Abrogation of the agreement was seen in the shooting of Charles YeKai, laundry owner, who was attacked by two other Chinese in front of his establishment in the Bronx this morning and taken to a hospital with serious bullet wounds. Several months ago the Hip Sings and On Leongs—most powerful of the Chinese societies in this country —promised the United States government they would end their feud, which has taken hundreds of lives at intervals in the last two or three decades. The government, in exacting the premise, threatened, as it had done many times before, to deport wholesale numbers of Tong members and hatchet men if the fighting did not stop. Recently the On Leongs have been at war with a smaller group.
