RACE PROBLEM
NOT PARAMOUNT
TAFT Urges the South
to Stand for Living
Issues

LEXINGTON, Ky, Aug. 23.-Withfa
discussion of the race problem and
general political issues from the South
ern standpoint and an appeal to Ken
tuckians and other Southerners to
come to the aid of the republican par
ty In support of those principles which
ne believed they favored, Secretary of
War William H. Taft today opened the
republican campaign in this CITY,.
Calling attention to what he called
the South's lack of representation in
the councils Of the nation, he declared
that this was true because one single
issue has made 1t the perpetual tall or
the democratic party, so that however
small the Northern head, 1t wags the
| tall The South has permitted the
shadows of an issue that circum-
stances ought long ago to have re-
moved from political controversy to
bind its solidity to the democratic par
ty, no matter what principles or can
didates that party has adopted
He called attention to the prosperity
of Kentucky's developing industries
and AGRICULTURAL wealth, and expressed
the belief that many Kentuckians who
favored a protective tariff had blindly
voted the democratic ticket because OF
the feeling on the race issue.

IMPORTANT CONFERENCE ENDED
Methodist Church Shows Fine Growth
During Past Year.

1t is learned that one of the most in
teresting conferences ever held in the
local M. E. church was held here dur
ing the week.
Rev. Sykes of Walla Walia was the
chairman. The building committee of
the church made a report relative to
the new edffice, which was shown to be
in very healthy condition. The finan-
cial condition is especially good.
The building is to be rushed to COM
pletion and all departments of the
work viii be rushed at the same time.
The pews are almost done, being made
in Minneapolis, the art glass windows
are being made and win be ready for
shipment soon, the different parts of
the work will thus all go on together.
and as soon as the roof is on the in
terror work will begin.
The promissory notes on the sub
scripfion list were taken up and all
were gone over, and it was found that
| the amount yet necessary Is only about
one-seventh of the cost of the build
| ing, and the chief encouragers of such
an edifice have been 1eft over until
| time it is expected that they viii hell
| and thus have the building paid for.
| This does not include the banks nor
| largest houses nor the most WEALTHY
men, who have promised to give, but
J have not yet been waited upon by th'
building committee. These feel tina
all will be well for the reason thai
they have planned and erected build
ing that will compare more than ia
vorably with any church edifice il
Spokane or Seattle, when they could
have erected one at half the cost tha
would have supplied every want of th'
local church for many years, bu
would not have been as much of 6
help to the city as this one will be.
1t was shown that 112 new members
Il, have united with the church during the
past year and that every department
of the church work is in good condi-
tion. A new official board was elected
and many new names appear upon the
list.

BOY SHOT
WHILE HUNTING
Attempts to Reach home
But Dies From Loss
of Blood

Charles Sage was accidentally killed
while hunting near Asotin yesterday
morning and the body not found until
late in the afternoon, when a search
ing party directed by the boys father
found the rifle leaning against the
fence and about SO yards away was
the body of the unfortunate youth with
bullet through the throat severinG
the juglar vein.
The blood on the grass showed that
the shot had been accidentally dis
charged while attempting to cross the
fence, and after receiving the wound
the boy had ran and crawled to the
spot where the body was found. The
position of the right hand and the fact
| that the sleeve was saturated with
blood showed how he had attempted to
stanch the flow.
Charles Sage Is IA years of age and
a son of Mr.. and Mrs. Elmer Sage of
Asotin. He went with his father yes
terday morning to the warehouse
Iwhere the elder Sage is employed. and
from there proceeded up the river tc
shoot the large carp which are often
seen near the surface of the water.
1t has been the boys custom to car
Try his fathers lunch to the warehouse
at noon, and when he did not return
to perform this errand some appre
tensions were entertained, but tn
alarm was not sounded until about
O'Clock in the afternoon.
After searching for some time tn
rifle was found where he attempted t
cross the fence, and short distanc
toward town lay the body. The fathe
, was the first to make the discovery
and was completely prostrated.
The funeral arrangements have no
been completed, on account of await
ing the arrival of relatives from Ore
gon, but it Is expected the funera
will be held on Sunday.
