Would Punish Imaginative Editors WILSON VICTIM OF FAKE SEAGIRT. N. .1., Aug. s.—Governor Wilson gave the correspondents a few Os his views today on the daily news paper of the present time. "it seems to me.” said the nominee, "that there ought to be some method of punishment meted out to those con nected wi.h the daily newspapers who are responsible for the misrepresenta tion and false statements printed. "Os course. I realize the difficulty of the task set for the newspapers, and I recognize the sincerity of their efforts, yet I van not understand some of the things they do. "During the course of an address that 1 had made some years ago 1 ventured the statement that in small communi ties 'public opinion was developed in the crossroad store where tite farmers sat around, chewed tobacco, expecto rated in the sawdust and exchanged ideas. "1 said jokingly that no matter what might be said of tobacco chewing it must he admitted it made men think. Jack Slaton Announces 'Cue Date JOYS REIGN AT CAPITOL John M. Slaton, president of the s/n --ate. lifted a burden of anxiety and ful filled a hope long defe 1 :ed w hen he.for mally invited the legislature and its va rious attaches today to a barbecue at fold Springs next Wednesday. Au gust 7. Mt. Slaton has been a member of the legislature for some sixteen years, rind his annual barbecue in honor of his colleagues is an event to which each succeeding house looks forward with much interest afid keen anticipation. Mr. Slaton always provides a mighty good time for those who attend, and any legislator who missed one of his yearly merrymakings would consider himself unfortunate indeed. This year’s invitation was delayed unusually, because of the more or less embarrassing circumstance that Mr. THOMAS B. FELDER GOES TO EUROPE TO BRING FAMILY HOME (iff for Europe, where Cole 1., Blease has no jurisdiction, sails Thomas B. Felder (not Thomas Si tomorrow.

Ei SMITH riKoAl' STREET and that wherever you found men chew ing tobacco together there you found the real public opinion of the country. "Imagine my astonishment the next ; morning when the newspapers came out ignoring the rest of my address and featuring what I had said about tobac co chewing, declaring I had said that tobacco chewing made thinkers, and imagine my horror whpn 1 found the story following me all over the country and getting worse and worse every minute until in a Dakota paper 1 was quoted to the extent of a column on the great advantages of tobacco chew ing. And can you further imagine my chagrin when a big chewing tobacco concern made a photograph of one of rhe newspaper reports and printed it in its advertising. 1 was stamped as a 1 college president who advocated chew ing tobacco to develop the mind. "Os course. 1 could never overtake such a story. For such work as this, I think, the publisher should be pun ished." Slaton is a candidate for governor, and to give the barbecue tins year at least in advance of the closing of the pri mary entries might have been miscon strued by some, and well, anyway. It was a delicate situation. Mr. Slaton was up against, and he hardly knew what to do. Eventually, however, it dawned upon Mr. Slaton that he was between two fires—if he didn’t give the barbecue a riot likely would break out in protest in the legislature, and if he did give it some few people’ might misunderstand him. ■ Today he grabbed the apparent lesser ■ of the two evils and issued his invita tion to his colleaguev. Besides, the invitation includes his two antagonists. Representatives Alex ’ and.>r ami Hall, and that ought to make everything right. DEATHS AND FUNERALS~| ■ Mrs. Georgia Saye.

After the call the demand be- . came good and all offerings were quickly absorbed by the ring and large spot in terests who looked to be short. and through their aggressiveness October ral lied from 12.40 to 12.55 and December from 12.50 tu 12.60. It was reported that Liverpool was a good buyer 1n this rtiarket today, and 1 some «*f the former bulls who have been out of the market for some time put in their appearance and traded large!.' upon late crop positions, and are talking higher prices. The rains in Texas and Oklahoma are reported not sufficient and i this adds to the bull element for higher • marks. The forecast is for clearing weather and rising temperature. This seems to be causing a bullish feeling, which may set shorts to covering at any lime. The heavy buying continued by the big professionals and large spot houses during the afternoon session, the trading being largely on October and De cember. with prices ranging throughout the list unchanged to 14 points above the j opening quotations 'rhe selling was gen eral and scattered. At the close the market was steady . with prices ranging from unchanged to 5 points above the final quotations of Sat unlay.
