"a more striking istance,' says the
President, could not be imagined of
tiae Jealous effort of public servant,
which Judge Taft then was, to secure
justice for workingmen to whom he
thought injustice had been done, al.
though the matter was not within his
immediate control at the time"
After citing this and another case
in which Mr. Taft rendered decision
in favor of worlinglnan in damage
suit and also ais work in Panama, the
President refers to the fact that the
next President will probably appoint
majority of the justices of the SUI
preme court and says:
1T would be a dreadful calamity to
have these justices chosen by a man of
less than Mr.. Taft's high purpose,
great knowledge of the needs of the
people and firm resolution to do just
| ice to every individual and interest.

Bryan as a Politician.

BRYAN as political leader was dis

up as an evidence that the Democratic
candidate is "still theorist and an

Plan to Have Stoekmsn Raise Deer.

The department Of agriculture be-
lieves that deer can be raised the same
as beef cattle, and its experts have set
themselves to the task of popularizing
venison. A bulletin on deer farming
will soon be issued. The idea Is to
have stockrnen raise deer just the
same as cattle. and experts declare
that they are easily raised and require
but little care, while their meat com
maids a high figure. Surprise is ex
pressed that they should not have been
raised on a commercial scale long be
fore this. In many states there Is a
law against killing deer, but it Is
thought that if farmers started to raise
them these laws would be repealed.

that the Young people have no chance
