WHO WHO FOR VICE VICE PRESIDENT? PRESIDENT?
The Republican Managers Considering
Roosevelt Sure Of denomination
Are Engaged In
spECULATIKG ON RUNNING MATE
Who Will Please the President and
the People and Strengthen
the Party.

Although it Is year ut least before
the conventions can determine the
matter, politicians of beth parties are
actively laying their wires for the
presidential campaign of 1904. The
democratic situation is chaotic at pres
ent and no one can safely attempt
forecast of the coming contest from
the democratic point Of view. Theo-
dore Roosevelt will be the republican
nominee for president If he lives till
the date of the convention. His part
ner on the republican ticket is an un-
settled problem. Names of good men
all over the union are ca1vassed. Ne
braska is honored In the discussion
for friends are suggesting
WEsTERNER FOR VICE PREsI-
DENT.
The managers think a western as
sociate essential to the success Of the
ticket. With perhaps a whole year
to think about the matter 1t Is prob
ably a waste Of time to guess at the
result of theaconventio1 on vice pres
ident. In the meanwhile healthy vot-
ers, loyal to their party and loyal to
the imperial west cannot afford to
overlook anything which tends to
make the west stronger commercially
as well as politically. Therefore 1t is
entirely natural and proper that the
wonderful career of

ton. A western institution, controlled

HOME GARDENING.
Points on the Selection and Starting
of Cuttings.

Bad success with cuttings is a plant
Of many amateur gardeners. The reason
of il is, in many instances. that the con-
ditiOn of the wood at the time the cutting
was taken was not right for striking root
You cannot take a branch from a plant
just anywhere and set il in the ground
just anyhow and then expect it to go
right ahead with development. You must
take into account certain natural laws
which the plants know, If you do not
The branch selected for cutting should
noa be too young neither should it he Of
too mature growth. If the wood is too
green the chances are that it will decay
before roots have time to form. On the
other hand, if too old its strength is used
mp and roots will not form. 1t is, of
course, necessary to select happy me-
dunn between these two extremes.
Tho best test to be employed when Sc
Letting cuttings is to ascertain whether
the wood is firm without being tough.
Bend it between the fingers carefully; If
is shows an inclination to break. and yet
bends, it is probably in fit condition to
strike root, This Is not an absolute rule,
because no absolute rule can be made TO
govern matters Of the kind but it will
serve If made use of with the addition Of
good comon sense, and its indications are
indeed fairly accurate. 1t should be read
according to the characteristics of certain
plants.
An excellent way of starting cuttings
is in clear sand Secure it as free from
dirt as possible and fill with it a shallow
| dsh-an old soup plate, ir nothing else is
! to be had. The sand should not be too
| fine or it will take on a muddy consistency
when wet, which is not desirable. Set the
cuttings upright in this, permitting the
| ends to touch the bottom of the dish;
then shower with water in sufficient guam
tity to thoroughly soak the sand. Keep
it moist in about the same degree con-
tinually and set in a warm place. prefera =
bly, in the sun.
The sand must not be allowed to become
dry or serious injury will result to the
cutting, If, indeed, it is not killed out
right. Neglect at this stage will most
probably be fatal In n weeks time roots
should be fairly started, but the young
plant should be kept In its bed of sand
for AT least two or three weeks. Only
when young leaves peep forth it IL safe t.
make the transfer to a pot containing or
binary soil
The bouvardia and chrysanthemum rep
resent a class of plants which can be-
propagated most easily by separating the
roots Begonias and gloXinias are propa
gated by taking the leaves, one of each
making a few cuts In the thick ribs ira
versing the backs and laying them OF
damp sand Roots will soon form.

planning that all that was necessary was
to obtain an introduction" from
friend, or agent at a cost Of 25 cents and
send 80 cents to the company for three
additional introductions. which the pa
tron was to sell to his friends. The
money received he was to retain and
when the friends to whom he had sold
the "introductions" had each RENTED
% cents to the company it was promised
that he should receive a book of Is tick
cts.
The company claimed in its literature
that the scheme was not an endless-chain
system. and that it was honestly con-
Quoted and within the law. The assist
ant attorney general held this to be an
absolutely false statement.
When the company was asked some
time ago to show cause why a fraud
order should not be issued, the officers
responded with a defiant letter to Assist
ant Attorney General Robb, declaring
that former Assistant Attorney General
Tyner of the postoffCe department. who
was summarily dismissed some time ago
and whose office is now under investiga-
ton, had passed upon the scheme and
declared it to be all right, and that let
ter in the files of the postof1ice depart
ment would prove this statement. This
letter was found to be substantially s
stated. This phase of the case is now
being Investigated along with other al
legged Irregularities.
Assistant Aforementioned Robb in his
opinion SAYS:
