POINTS OUT DANGER.
Secretary Taft Discusses Philippines
and Democracy.

indianapolis, Oct. Secretary of War
Taft and Senator Beveridge were the
spea kers at the closing meeting held i'll
connection with the convention of the
national Rel publican league of the Z. s.
A torchlight procession escorted the
speakers to the hall ,where a large crowd
had gathered. Secretary Taft said:
THE danger in bringing the Demo-
cratic party into power in respect to the
Philippine issue is that if they come into
power the Filipinos will regard them as
having pledged themselves to give the
islands immediate independence and
should they fail to keep this pledge the
insurrection element would be certain
to charge the government with bad
faith. On the other hand if they grant
ed immediate independence no greater
disaster could come to the islands and
it would be disgraceful abandonment
of the duties and burden which fate mas
placed upon the United States.
The civil government he said, lis
for the civil government is imposed
upon the United States
THE statements of Judge Parker and
Mr.. Davis in respect to the Philippines
are greatly exaggerated. and 1 do not
know where Judge Parker obtained the
authority to make the statement that
the Philippines cost the United States
$3.50, 900, 900. Wherever he got it, it is
certainly without foundation"
Senator Beveridge was also accorded
warm welcome when he arose to
speak.

BIG GAME IN DOUBT.
Columbia and Michigan Teams May
Not Meet.

New York, Oct. THE proposed
football game between Columbia and
Michigan will not be played this sea-
son, at least not at the late date Sug-
gested.s if the talk heard among the
students on Morningside heights is to
be accepted as an indication of the
probable result in declaring such a
contest off.
Speaking of this matter, one of the
prominent members of the Columbia
football eleven had this to say today:
For three years now Michigan uni
versity has been extremely DESTROYS of
meeting one of the eastern colleges.
The western team has defeated every
thing in that section and is now look
ing for honors in the east. 1t will be
admitted that the ambition of the
Michigan players is a laudable one,
but under present schedule arrange
ments I don't see how Columbia or
any eastern university team can fix a
satisfactory date.
after playing Pennsylvania, Yale
and Cornell, in what condition would
the Blue and White be to meet an ag-
gregation like the Michigan eleven? 1
should like very much to see foot
ball match between Michigan and Co
lurnbia but how the contest could be
brought off at the termination of the
season without sacrificing many inter
ests here is more than I can under
stand"

Racing at Kansas City.

Kansas City, Oct. Although there
were no stakes carded at Elm Ridge
park yesterday afternoon, 1T was
great days racing as three track rec
ordS were lowered and one eQualed.
San Nicholas opened the ball by step
ping five and a half furlOngs in 1907,
eQualing the best time made for that
distance. In the third race Ed Ball,
a Missouri bred horse, covered a mile
in 1:401s, beating McGee's mark one
fourth of q second, and in the fourth
race Azelina, Hal Booker's good f1lly
covered five furlongs in 1:00%, beat
ing the former mark three-fourthS of
a second. The last record to fall by
the wayside was in the closing num-
Der, when Rag Tag reeled off seven
furlongs in 1:27A, clipping two sec
onds off of the previous mark.
In the third race, the feature event
of the day, the biggest surprise was
sprung. In this number the dopsters
could see nothing but The Lady and
Woods Perry. Both were heavily
backed, while Ed Ball and Proof
Reader, the other starters, were en-
tirely overlooked by the spectators.
The Lady opened a strong favorite, but
at post time heavy commissions on
Woods Perry sent her price up and
Ed Balls price went soaring to to :.
ThesLady broke in front but after
that there was nothing to the race
but Ed Ball. Mulkey's son of Virgo
Dor went right to the front at the
first turn and after racing Woods Per-
ry into submission he leisurely contin-
ued the journey, winning at the end
with three lengths to spare.

YosT FINDS FAULT.
Coach Says Wolverines Played Poor
Ball Against Case.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Oct. From the ex-
hibition put up by Michigan against Case
on Saturday it is evident that Yost has
more work before him than has been
thought all along.
ssWhy,' said he after the contest, that
was the worst game we have played
against Case since 1 have been connected
with Michigan athletics and that bunch
on the field the second half was the poor
est / have had to deal with in some
years"
It is not likely that any radical changes
will be made in the line up, although
there has been some talk of moving Tom
Hammond into right tackle to fill the big
hole left by Joe Maddocks departure, but
lots of time will be spent from now on in
developing speed, unity and accuracy. The
one redeeming feature of the Case game
was the noticeable lack of fumbling on
the part of the wolverines. Tt will be re-
men1bered that this was a great weakness
in the early games of last year and Yost
is to be congratulated that his squad has
learned to handle the ball cleanly this
early in the season
Harry Hammond was taken to the
training table and some position on the
team is assured for him. Marion Wolfe.

last years scrubs, has re-entered college

TWO LEFT IN THE RACE.
Boston the Favorite Over New York
for the Championship.

New York, Oct. Tn the American
league both Boston and New York are
playing the steadiest kind of ball, win
ming with regularity that foreshadows
a desperate struggle right to the very
end.
Boston is the general favorite in
this gruelling race, for it is believed
that the Plymouth Rocks will be bet
ter able to stand the strain when it
comes to that final series which will
mean everything. Collins team has
already been through one pennant
race which it won and this was fol-
lowed by a hard series for the worlds
championship with the Pittsburg Pr
rates. Nothing but the steadiest nerve
saved the American leaguers in this
tussle with the National leaguers and
it is this experience that makes the
with the Highlanders.
In a long championship season with
race for the flag of the character of
the present one in the American
league the strain on the ball players
on the competing teams is a hard one.
AS the race narrows down and the
men realize that everything depends
on them, they become worked to the
highest nervous tension and any mis-
take is liable to cause trouble for the
play in bitter language and little en-
couragement is given for good one,
that going as a matter of course. With
a season as long as that of this year,
playing 154 games instead of 40
games, the strain is just that much
greater. The bad weather that is en-
countered makes 1t harder on the
players, too. A pitcher does not have
to stand the strain that the regular
fielders of the team do. for after
twirling his game and performing his
part In the effort to land the flag he

night at a meeting which drew large

CLASH WITH TAX LAW.
Farmer Arrested for Peddling Meat ON
Chanute Streets.

Farmer Arrested for Peddling Meat on
Chanute Streets.
Chanute. Kas, Oct IA. z. Dewey,
a farmer, was arrested by Chlet OF 70
lice Meanor on the charge OF V1olat-
ing the occupation tax ordinance he
was selling fresh beef at retail from
his wagon. He declared his inten-
ton of fighting the case, and gave
bond for his appearance in ponce
court.
For some time Dewey has been re-
failing fresh meat in Chanute in DELI
ance of the city ordinance which pro-
vides that license tax shall De pald
on such an occupation. The local
butchers who pay a license for the
privilege of conducting their business
have been complaining of Dewey's &C
tons, and yesterday they made a con-
certed protest to the chief of police.
Dewey processes to believe that the
occupation tax ordinance is not worth
the paper constituting the page on
which it is printed in the book OF City
ordinances. Following his arrest he
declared if the verdict of the police
court was unfavorable to him he
would appeal the case to the district
court, and failing of Justice there, he
would carry it up to the supreme
court.
81 am not lawyer and only a plain
farmer" said Dewey, but 1 have
sense enough to know that that occu-
patton tax ordinance is demonstrations
al and will not stand in law. Things
would have come to a pretty pass if a
farmer should be denied by the city
of Chanute the privilege of selling the
product of his soil and labor wherever
and in whatsoever manner he chose. y
The city believes the occupation tax
is a valid measure, and if Farmer
Dewey makes good his avowed deter
nlination of fighting the case there will
be an interesting locking of horns and
a battle royal. Dewey is charged with
peddling without a license.

J. A. Nicely will have 20 tons of broom

price of $S5 it would bring $1,000. MIR.
Nicely is binding the fodder and says it
is as good as cane and will make two
tons to the acre at the lowest esti-
mate; that would be 12O tons. and it is
worth 50 per ton, making $3.50. There
will be 1000 bushels of seed that is
worth 80 cents per bushel, making $500;
total for the crop. s2.36O. Cost of plow-
ing and planting crop, $120; cultivating.
$50: cutting and bailing, $25 per ton.
making $500 for the crop. One hundred
dollars for delivering brush; $50 for
binding fodder; $50 for cleaning seed;
SO for incidentals, making $500 for all
expenses in caring for crop Deduct
this from $3.50 and you have s1,4e0;
now cut all the prices in two and you
have $3.50 after all expenses are paid.
This is pretty good for land that can
be bought for So an acre, yet this is a
low estimate on the crop and there are
others just as good. Frank Byers. A.
