GAME WARDEN ROW.
Looks Like Whole Matter Was Pure
Politics.
Th?- Richardson investigation
"petered out" Friday afternoon. The
runinilttrr coueluiltil its hearings,
nml will report to the senate. The
decision of the eotnmittee was reserved.
Those who have watched every
phase of tiie Investigation, which was
demandeil by former t'hief it a me
Warden lliehardson. are eonvinced
that the entire hearing has. so far
as the public is concerned, given t,*oI.
Richardson an absolutely clean bill
of health. The afternoon session, the
fourth of the hearing, was really only
a sort of winding up of the entire
affair There were three features of
Friday's hearing:
First, as to the packing of the Audubon
society, with regard to securing
a recommendation of the society
for the appointment of a chief game
warden h> the governor. Mr. Gibbes,
Governor Manning's appointee, admitted
on cross-examination, that he
_jf had also, following what he termed
the precedent established, 'drummed
up" members of the society to
vote for him for the recommendation
and had himself voted several hundred
proxies, which gave htm the
nomination of what has been heretofore
termed In this correspondence as
the "Rump convention" of the socie
- r
ty. when Mr. Gibbet* was nominated
to the governor.
1 Second. Governoi Manning's stateirient
to the committee that he had
not sent in his veto message last year
i with the idea of charging Richard
son with any "crime or misappropriation
of funds, but that he had felt
, and still felt that the office was being
r < or;ducted irregularly in the respects
x-t out." and further contending that
piobably the investigation, in the
regard of inquiring into the matters
ujiou which he had bused his veto
w:.k an "enrt-Liaehnient" bv
'.h<* legislative department upon the
ix?<-utivt; which in this instance the
governor, against lack of precedent,
had waived in courtesy to the senate.
Third, the failure to produce any
I i' il testimony against Col. Richard'
son.
Senatoi hoi i ha in, representing Col.
Hii harn.son, in an eloquent and logi1
ai address at the beginning of the
hearing Friday, said that Kichardson
i was ready to meet any specific charge,
hut urged tiiat "quibbling over small
iiiati' is" be eliiinnatcU.
Tb< governor's testimony admitted,
ti" said. in fairness to Richardson,
that according to the statement of
.-'lute Auditor Hradley, gasoline and
upkeep of automobiles had been paid
for by ?'ol. Kichardson from his personal
funds, and not from the state
funds, and that the "prosecution" had
in i n wrong in this regard.
Mi. ijibhes. Covernnr Manning's a|?l>oiut?-c
as chief game warden, was on
the stand for nearly an hour. He admitted
that he had paid Mack Huy,
former bookkeeper for Kichardson.

the benefits they are now enjoying
through natural laws of supply and
demand, while western wheat farmers
have had a price fxvd for their

practically equivalent tc the present
market price of cotton.
Senator Smith further gives out the
highly interesting and significant information
that nil the talk of fixing
ihe price of cotton is manufactured
by speculators for the deliberate purpose
of intimidating farmers into selling

SURE TO CATCH HIM
EITHER GOING OR COMING. ,
The Ordinary Life Contract of the
Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company
Is. without exception, the most ?
attractive issued by any Company In ?
the world, when taken on what is g
known as the Accelerative Endowment <
Plan. The plan was figured out by .Itroomfield
J. Miller. Actuary of the s
Mutual Benefit, in 1874. It appeals to
any man who appreciates his obligation
to protect those dependent on him
while they are not In position to protect
themselves, and at the same time
realizes that after the time comes that
lependents no longer need protection
He May Need Protection Himaelf. It In
n contract under which the holder in
absolutely sure to win, whether he
lives or not, provided, of course, he
continues to annually arrnnge the comparatively
small premium called for In v
the contract; in other words he will
certainly "catch the coon either going
ur coming." It Is not practical to give
i detailed and satisfactory exposition
at the plan within the space at my disposal:
hut If you are sufficiently inter- .
rsted in the protection of both yourself
:>nd your dependents to ask for details,
I shall he pleased to "show you." The
Mutual Benefit attaches at present, a :
war clause to all policies Issued on the 1
lives of applicants between It and 45 '
years of age. and In case the policy- '
holder enters the service of the U. S? 1
tin extra premium of $37.50 on each 1
$1,000 is due and payable for the first
year in service, whether the -holder Is ,
in the IT, S. or France. If you are be- '
twecn 15 and 70 there will be no war
clause.
