Except for a brief talk In the morning with William R-Wtllcox, chairman of the Public Service Commission of the First District, and a chat across the dinner table with State Chester County, he paid little attention politics. Senator W.iinwrlght came to talk about the platform, and pari Icularly the labor plank.

He made several suggestions to what he thought should be done the Interests of labor and they will laid before the resolutions committee. The Progressives believe that especial effort should be made to enlist the interest of labor In the contlng campaign, and. with this In view, will lay considerable stress upon a labor plank. Colonel Roosevelt would say nothing as Ms views on these matters, and It not known whether an attempt will be made to build into the platform a provision for a workinginen's compensation bill, such as he advocated in his recent speech In Kansas City.

The State Committee of the Independence League has prepared a list of fifteen questions which It has circulated, and which will be sent to candidates as they are nominated, irrespective of party, and If answered satisfactorily to the league, will form a pledge to support In the Legislature and out of it the reforms that are most strongly advocated by the league men. The questions are as follows: "Are you In favor of a direct nominations bill statewide in its application to every elective office?" "Would you Include an Instructive vote to the Legislature on United States Senators in the above bill?" "Are you In favor of the referendum?" "Are you in favor of the initiative?" "Are you in favor of the recall?" "Are you in favor of home rule for cities and counties?" "Are you In favor of the Massachusetts form of ballot?" "Are you In favor of a Federal Income ''Are you In favor of a downward re- vision of the tariff?" "Are you In favor of a statewide per sonal registration?" "Are you In favor of an open primary, an obtain most states in the West," "Or are you in favor of distinct party primaries based on a statewide enrollment?" "Do you favor making a flagrant violation of the primary election law punishable as a felony rather than a mide-mcanor?" "Do you favor applying the signature law to primary elections?" "Are you In favor of public ownership of public utilities?" State Chairman John J. Hopper, asked as to what would jiappen if two, candidates for the same office answered the questions with equal satisfaction to the league, replied: "The selection of candidates will be made by the convention. The promulgation of doctrines and the furnishing of information to Ihe convention is the duty of the General Committee." "Does this mean that the league would indorse Democrat or a Republican who gave the pledge to the satisfaction ot the league delegates and was satisfactory In other respects?" the chairman was asked. "Such a thing might happen; In fact, 1 believe it will happen," was the response.

Continuing. Mr. Hopper said: Wn arc determined to make a greni. tSan (jr direct nominations to start with wno will be for our kind ot 'direct nominations, which is the real Vinne in he able to sav that we have aided largely in burying the old stylo POLICE DOGS ROUT SLEEP Residents Near Parkville Station Aroused by Howls.

And It is confessed that extravagance and mismanagement cause a waste of no less than three hundred million dollars each year In the ordinary conduct or the Government, which is more than the combined expenditures of all the states In the Union. It is surely time the people should bestir themselves in this matter, for everyone of them is compelled to pay Federal taxes on almost everything h3 buys for consumption or other use. whether he owns property subject to slate and local taxation or not.
