Presidential Possibilities In 1903.

From Leslie's Weekly.
1t hardly seems possible that in about
two years from this date the country
will be upset again by the meeting OF
the national presidential conventions of
two oontending parties. From this time
on, we will begin to hear more and more
of the merits of the different candidates
who may loom up on the horizon new
ones appear and old ones disappear. lt
is semi-officially announced that Score
tary Taft is out of the presidential race,
and that he will take place on the

early in fall. As Senators Foraker and

SUNDAY. OCTOBER 2s. 1908.
A GREAT SUCCESS

That such great crowds attended the State Fair in this city is indis putabie evidence of the keen interest culated to advance their prosperity and general we'll being. It was on his faith in this sentiment that President w. F. vandiver took such great in terest in the movement at timH when not a dollar had been raised.
 The community rallied to the sams view and soon subscribed the sum that was asked for a beginning. It seemed to strike all our people fa- vorably and today they re congratu lattng themselves on the great sue cess of the great undertaking.
 It is a matter of congratulation not only for the citizens of Montgomery city and county, but for the whole State. It is impossible to overesti- mate the good results that will come from this great display of the pro ducts of the fields, the horses, cattle. cows. sheep. and poultry, to. say nothing of the general utility articles that were so handsomely displayed.
 Before the week was over it was evident that the accommodations were inadequate and long before the tim :. for opening day next year Vandiver , Park will be a busy place where the sound of hammer and saw will be heard adding buildings to meet re- quirements.
 1t is almost without record that s) many people should ilve gathered and nothing but good huror prevail. The good times may have had some- thing to do with it, put we attribute it to the splendid character Of the people who were visitors 70 H'ntgom- cry last week.
 To President Nandiver and all his co-workers we extend hearty congrat ulations.

INDIAN WORDS.

Speaking of Indian names The h. dlanapolis Star says:
 The New York Tribune is impress e6 by reported discovery of the Minnesota Historical Society that the correct Indian name of the Minnehaha mean laughing water at all. but wo"ia be iiiuminatIns to tn" sioa3 because Minnehahas Is sioux name m,,, the Sioux language. 1t Is quite prob able. however, that laughing water" is pure Americanism. and that the proper Sioux name of the falls IS coming down ir d flood" There are very few Indian names In this country that are in their original Indian form or whose commonly accepted tranSla- tionS are correct.
 The Star calls attention to some misprcnounced CT mislnterrreted. but it is not necessary to speak of others In no language on earth, perhaps, Ut least no modern one-can there bo found more errors on the part of the whites than can be seen In connection with many Indian dialects of this continent The words, and especially the proper names, are spelled so diff ferently by different etymologists and writers that no wonder there is go much confusion and misunderstanding at this day on the subject.
 This trouble all comes from ths fact that none of the Indian tribes or nations had written language ex- cept the Cherokees. and theirs is O. recent origin. The consequence has been that most Indian names were ob tained by sound and written as the nearer understood the sound As very many of'these names were frs heard by hunters and trappers wh' were illiterate and by them repeated and tak"n down by others. it is mo- to be wondered at that so may diff rerences and errors exist in comes tion with Indian names. It is but fair to state. also. that much of the confusion comes from Historical so. cieties and the various Geographic Bureaus not agreeing on the orthog- raphy. etymology and significance of the many names, taken rom s1 many dialects.
 As matter of fact. there is not greater variety of wider difference, of Languages in all the old world as existed among the many Indian tribes and nations of America As general remark the languages Of the Eastnra and Northern Indians were rough and , harsh. Some of them to American ears sound as rough and unCouth IS Polish or Russian while some of the Southern dialects are as soft as Ital- ian or spanish This wide diversity and great difference l1 sound has had much to do with the confusion in names of persons and places.

 of Chicago. I'll shut the door and close tt tight, For I am weary. Lord. tonight, And come. tho faint, with all my care. To Thee-to Thee! in silent prayer. Outside. the .storfh and winters rain. The tides of life will beat in vain For all the rich and all the poor, Who pray within the closet door. Go thou within and shut the door, And kneel to Him. when VOL are sore, He'll take from you your pad of care. If you'll give Him your heart In
 prayer.
 And when you open wide the door Your heart will throb the more ami
 more,
 With joy relieved of grief and care, Just for that little closet prayer.
