it being the shortest way home fo1
himself as we'll as Perry and wife
he continued on his way, over

several times, then grabbed him by
the hair and jerked him to the ground
after short tussel Paul broke loose
and ran to get away from him. Perry

In reply to the question, "What

probable that smelling ore would be
struck which would increase In val.
ues and at the same time would un.
doubtedly be heavy In copper. From
specimens Of copper veins he had
seen, he was rather oil the opinion
that the greater wealth of the coun-

have immense mines right at your
door, and all that is needed TO make
this one of the greatest mining coun-
tries In the world is better transpor-
tation facilities. When you have the
railways to get the ore to the smelt-
ers, or to make smelling profitable IN
your city, capital to develop the
mines will be forthcoming.
"Your country" says Mr.. Poser,
lis tributary to Butte In a mining
way, and it is surprising that a great
effort has not been made by the
wealth Iof that city to open up the
country. You have the mineral,
and we have the smelters, and until
capital will see the wisdom Of build

would be the natural point for ship

TAFT IS PAWN
OF PRESIDENT !
Odell Says Days Of Dictation Of
President Are Over.

New York, Aug. 26.-A tour OF
eight Eastern states has convinced
Elk Governor and former republican
state Boss b. b. Odell, Jr., that
neither Roosevelt, raft, nor any re.
publican picked by the former can be
nominated for the presidency, but
that Governor Hughes is the popular
republican idol OF the people.
Still soiled by the dust and CRIME
accumulated during a thousand mile
trip through New England, the man
whom Roosevelt dethroned last fall,
spent an hour at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel yesterday and related the re.
suits OF his observation OF political
conditions In strictly republican bail.
iwicks.
Summarized In terse sentences, the
conclusions Of Mr.. Odell are:
That republicans are In revolt
against Roosevelt third term proposi.
tioD and resent the presidents plan
to name his successor in case he fails
to obtain denomination.
That republicans are espousing the
cause OF Governor Hughes because OF
their resentment OF Roosevelt's eff.
forts to dictate either his own re.
nomination OF that Of one OF his
creatures.
That there Is little or no sentiment
for Taft. Any attempt to stampede
the republican national convention
for him or Roosevelt will mean a re-
petition of the battle against U. 5.
Grant In 1880. which terminated In
the nomination OF James A. Garfield.
Mr.. Odell has returned from his
trip more determined than ever to
force an instructed delegation from
New York for Governor Hughes. lie
not only believes that this feat can
be accomplished, but plans TO conduct
an offensive fight for the recapture
OF the state machine, and will devote
himself TO the unhorsing OF Woodruff,
