Now, we submit to those who have
been closely watching the fair and
honorable manner in which Mr.. Dill.
Ion has performed bis duties as State
Tax Commissioner If such a TRADE
as that against him by an alleged Re
publican paper published in his home
town is not worthy Of the censure and
condemnation of affair minded peo-
pie? 1t seems pity when a man OF
such excellent parts as Mr.. Mcintosh
possesses becomes such a tool of the
corporate interests that he has tc
take a stand against the people in
matters of such vital interest as the
equitable adjustment Of the tax bur,
den and it seems a double pity that
he SO far forgets the proprietfes as to
berate feliow-townsman and fellow

4. In news article In another column
of today's paper appears very in
teresting statement recently made by
President Roosevelt to Uncle joe
Cannon. An ear witness relates. the
incident in which he says. President
Roosevelt at recent conference at
Sycamore Hill, on bidding the guests
goodbye, made the following remark
to Uncle joe" who was present:
'rYou, Mr.. Speaker, will be the next
President of the United States" And
who knows but that the President was
right? Speaker Cannon is great
man and has the confidence Of the
people to a remarkable degree. Sim
cere, plain, honorable, upright and
unfaltering, he would make an ideal
President. The common people would
find in him friend whom they could
love and trust and the men of means
would not fear his running amuck-
While it is early yet to launch Presi-
Dental booms, more unlikely things
have happened than that President
Roosevelt was right in saying that
i"uncle Joe" Cannon would be the
next President.

In Harrison county has come from
