CUDS PICKS TO PIECES TACT'S ACTS In Open Letter Gives Eight Reasons Why He Opposes His Renomination.

(National News Association) CHICAGO, Sept. 6. In a signed article, published n the Chicago RecordHerald today, U. S. Senator Albert B. Cummins, of Iowa, gives his reasons for declaring, as he did recently, that President Taft should not be renominated by the Republican party for the presidency. The article says in part: "A few days ago, in answer to an inquiry from a reporter of the Register ft Leader of Dei Moines, I stated that In my opinion Mr. Taft ought not to be remoninated as the candidate for president by the national convention and among other things I said that he did not take 'the progressive view' of matters which concerned ' the public Interest., . .. . , . . . : "It Is to be understood that my op position to the renomination of Taft is based solely upon bis attitude toward public questions and my conviction that the convention ought to nominate si candidate for president who will be strongest In the election. 1 "I have no other than the most friendly feeling for the president. With these preliminary and explanatory suggestions I present my bill of particulars. ... . "It will be conceded, I suppose, that President Taft's alignment must be denned chiefly "1 By his position upon the Payne Aldrich tariff law. -a By nis position upon the bill for the further regulation of Interstate common . carriers, brought forward bout the frst of the year 1910. "3 By bis position upon the change made In the postal stevlngs, just as it was being passed In the Senate. ' "4 By his position upon the proposed Income tax law, which was sought to be incorporated into the Payne-Al-drlch tariff act. "5 That by hie attitude toward the control and disposition of our public domain." By his position on the Canadian , tariff bill passed at the extra session just closed. "7 -By his work for the peace treaties.. V8 By his vetoes of . the woolen schedule, free list, and the resolution admitting New Mexico and Arizona as states." Senator Cummins takes up each one of these In turn and picks Taft's stand to pieces. He criticizes Taft's associates in the making of the tariff, naming Aldrich, Papne, Cannon and Dalzell In particular. , He lays the. .Interstate commerce law to Atdrioh and Taft and declares that coercion wa used "lo force', ft passage.?;: T ! ft; t. -f it "V , Cummins charges that Taft was al- ' lined , with the reactionaries on practically every big piece of legislation and concludes his article thus:-' . "My general conclusion Is, therefore, that in every struggle which has taken place since Mr. Taft became president upon vital things bis allies and supporters have been the senators and members of the House of Representatives who, however honest they may be, are known from one border of the country to. the other as reactionaries or stand patters and not progressives. If the voters of the Republican party, believe that the. old leadership should be perpetuated they can And no better nominee than Mr. Taft. I do not believe it ought to be continued and, therefore, without any personal disparagement of the. president, I am hoping that a progressive Republican will be nominated and elected next year." , . , MEETING HELD BY CITY BOARD TODAY The board of public . works, at a short session this morning fixed the amount of benefits, which the GarrScott company will be obliged to pay the city, for the vacation of North F street, at f 1,500. Other assessments of benefits and damages on the vaca tion of North Ps street, and the Washington avenue railroad, crossing have not been made as yet. " Protests have been made to the board that test cars of local automobile factories are being operated over the city streets at a greater speed than that allowed by law. Notices were sent to the concerns manufacturing machines this afternoon by City Clerk Baecher, requesting all testers to comply with the law which tates that no automobile shall be driven faster than eight miles an hour on the streets and not more than four miles an hour when turning a street corner.

Though no knockout .was registered, it would have been had the referee so willed. But the main go between Young Sweeney of Indianapolis and Jimmy Anderson of Brazil was the stellar at traction, the lightweights mixing it up frequently and coming out scratched and plainly showing the evidence of some of the fierce spells of grilling. Both were cautious of each other. Both were clever, possibly Sweeney having the shade, as he was active on his feet and clever in landing blows. Anderson has the punch; Sweeney evidently lacks it, but is quicker. Consequently Sweeney had his speedy little "opponent in many tighter holes than Anderson was In. The popular decision possibly favored Anderson, though there- were many who thought the former Chicago lad had the better of the exhibition so fat as points are concerned; referee McGann rendered no decision.

Sheriff Albert Steen and deputies Clarence Mote and Ed Morel, Rice Miller of Greensfork and Sam Roberts were called to the Italian camp just south of the Wernle Orphans' Home on Monday night to search for $250 which had been stolen from one of the Italians, whom the authorities styled John Doe. Sixty nine of the laborers were lined up on the car tracks and while deputies Mote, Roberts and Miller searched these, the sheriff and Morel went into the cars' which they searched. The money was not found, though two brothers. Whose names the sheriff could neither understand nor get the spelling of are susplcloned but were not arrested. The authorities returned to the camp on Tuesday af ternoon, but at press time had made no further discoveries nor made any arrests. While searching the men deputy Roberts found that one had a hundred and fifty dollars sewed up in the Inside of his undershirt, in such a manner that the money was always next to his shoulderee. Even some gold eagles were sewed between the cloth. When the deputy made the discovery and compelled the man to disrobe and count out the money he squealed and was most reluctant to do so. However the robbed Italian, "3-hose name the authorities do not have, exonerated the man. The authorities did not learn just how it was the money had been secreted from the Italian's hiding place. - John Bunyan's Indictment.

WOULD REFORM SECT Swedenborgian Clergy Displeased with Polygamy. (National News Association) CHICAGO, Sept. 5. Following the resignation of the Rev. A. B. Francisco from the pastorate of the, Humboldt Park Swedenborgian church, it was learned today that he quit the ministry because he was convinced the church had become tolerant of the "allowableness of an - associate wife." The resignation was brought about as a result of the failure of the recent convention of Swedenborgians to go on record as opposed to the alleged polygamous doctrine. Leaders of the sect in Chicago predicted that many more clergymen would resign unless the doctrines were purged of the polygamous article. Correct. Professor What bone la this?

SOUTH SIDE ASSOC, OEMAHOS fl BRIDGE Makes Dire Appeal to County Council Main Street Bridge in Bad Shape.

The directors of the South Side Improvement asociation appearea before the county council this afternoon and asked for , an appropriation sufficient to build the south side bridge at South L Btreet. The directors of the asso ciation stated that the county at the present time had. a fund of $44,971 set aside for the construction of the bridge and that to build the bridge it would only take from $50,000 to $60,00. They asked the council to adjust the levy so that the additional amount could be collected, which would be sufficient to construct the bridge. They stated that they had presented the matter several times to the county commissioners but without result and that had come before council to try to get action. The commissioners called Jack Mueller, county engineer, to explain what had been done and why the matter had not been reported on. Engineer Mueller stated that he had made three surveys and had made an examination of the Main street bridge, thinking that it might be torn down and reconstructed at South L street, but upon examination he found -that the bridge was in such bad shape that it would not pay to do anything with it. He stated that the bridge was not constructed to carry the heavy interurban cars and the current of the street car company has caused electrolypsis on the west end of the bridge, which had left that part of the bridge in bad shape? He also stated that it would be only a few years until there would have to be a new bridge constructed in its place. The bridge contemplated for South L street would be 400 feet long, 40 feet wide and have a sidewalk of five feet, leaving the roadway thirty feet. This sort of a bridge would cost In the neighborhood of 160,000, including ap proaches. Mr. Coe showed the coun cil how the appropriation could be made without raising the levy, by reducing one or two of the items on the budget. The county council adjourned at 2:00 to meet again at 3:00 to consider the appropriations on the 1912 budget. The commissioners and council generally favored the appro priation providing it would not neces sitate the raising of the tax levy. 0RARAU.C1TY ELECTROCUTED Ora Rau, an employe of the municipal light plant was killed this af ternoon about 3:30 o'clock on Wil liams street by being shocked to death. More than 2,200 volts went through his body. He was on a pole but further details about the accident are not known. The city ambulance was ;alled but when it arrived Rau was dead and his body was taken to the undertaking parlors. He lived at 223 South Thirteenth street. He is survived by his wife, his father and mother and two brothers. The Twilijrht Of Life.

MAYOR HAS GELDING WHICH SHOWS CLASS William Owens, a well known horseman from Toledo, who has had a great deal of experience with some of the fastest horses of recent years is now associated with Dr. V. W. Zimmerman in the training of Billy Buster, the mayor's fast double gaited gelding. The animal has been in poor form until this spring, but under the training of Mr. Owens is developing wonderfully. eH has pased on several

occasions in tryouts at the driving park a 2:134 mile and trotted a mile in 2:24, which is regarded as most remarkable. The horse possibly will be raced this season. SPECIAL MEETING TO CONSIDER BUDGET At the meeting of the city council on Monday evening there were seven absentees and the five present dele gated the authority to Mayor Zimmerman to call a special meeting at which the city budget for 1912 will be considered. The council then adjourned. The mayor issued a call for a special meeting this evening. The council will consider the budget as a committee of the whole. Though a vast amount of money is to be appro priated, the 1912 budget will not be radically different from those of the previous years. APES OF GIBRALTAR. Highly Prized and Carefully Protected by Martial Law. Major is the name of the chief of the highly prized and carefully protected tribe of Barbary apes that to habit the rock of Gibraltar. There i a saying In the fortress to the effect that it were "better to kill the gov ernor than Major." There are only about twenty left of this band of monkeys, which In some mysterious manner came over from Africa many years ago and claimed citizenship in Europe., They are pro tected by martial law, and any addi tion by birth to their number Is carefully chronicled and announced in the local paper. T,be apes change their place of residence from the highest peaks of the rock to lower and more sheltered portions and back again, according to the state of the weather They show their sense of humor by throwing stones at the soldiers, but they are often not seen for weeks at a time save in the early morning. A few years ago, on account of the diminishing numbers of these animals, some apes were procured from Barbary and turned loose upon the rock. But resident monkeys killed tbem all. Although so fierce to intruders of their own kind, they never attack human beings and are greatly beloved and esteemed. New York Press. Japanese Tag. This makes an amusing variation on the old game of tag. When a player is tagged he must place his left band on tbe spot tagged and keep It there until he has caught some other victim The game works out in this way: Tbe one who Is '"it" endeavors to tag a runner on the knee or foot, so that bis efforts to tug any one with bis hand on this part of tbe body will be awkward and amusing.
