Mr.. Taft's speech to the Virginians

Reid, of Cincinnati, who is a candi-

leaving DR.. Reid expressed the belief
that a great many of the physicians

Of Mr.. Taft. The record of Mr.. Taft

Of this feeling of friendliness.

The Hearst trophy at the Sacra-
mentoi congress was a magnificent
cup of massive design, 32k inches in
height with an extreme width of 81
inches. The grape decorations were
a feature of this trophy. Massive
lunches of grapes formed six panels,
one bearing the inscription, Hearst
Trophy" another reserved for the
name of the winning exhibitor. The
remaining panels contained engraved
scenes of irrigated farms. The grape
decoration was carried down to the
base of the cup and around the ebony
pedestal. This cup was one of the
most beautiful and valuable trophies
ever offered In this country and cost
three thousand dollars. II was won
by the state of Utah and was offered
for the best state exhibit of irrigation
and forest products.
Colonel Twitehell has asked that
the Albuquerque trophy be offered for
the same class Of exhibits and has for
warded suggestions as to the decora-
tive features Of this magnificent prize.

Dear Sir:
Mr.. Hearst has received your COM

he give a trophy for the Irrigation

did for the one held in Sacramento.
He instructs me to inform you that
1t will give him great pleasure to COM

wishes to do whatever he can to help
lit.
81 think that such trophies should
be appropriate to the subject: and as
Mr.. Hearst has told me to look out
for this matter. would like very
much for you to give me your idea as
to what kind of trophy would be best
to offer it, The one We offered at
Sacramento was for the state prize.
and possibly since we have done that
before. and since Mr.. Hearst's trophy
will be a handsome one, 1t might be
as well to take that as subject
again.

on this and also any suggestion that
lyou may have to offer concerning the
style or character OF the prize which
he will give.

ence, with some people, whose
OK is being gored. AS long as it
is your property or your person
that is being injured it is no
affair of mine, and my sympathy
will be given to the violator of
law; but let the scales be turned
and then nothing is too vile to
say of the culprit, and no punish
ment too severe. This should
not be. If | am a man, | will
defend your daughter just as
quickly as my own daughter,
and your son Just as quickly as
my own son.
All honorable people should be
found on the side of law, order,
and decency, and this cannot be
done by giving aid and comfort
to violators of law, whether they
be thieves, murderers, or what
not.
How long, oh! how long before
people, who claim to be law abid-
ing citizens, will stand up for
law, order, and decency.
How long, OH how long before
honorable (?) people will cease
condoning crime bv giving aid
and comfort to lawless people?
How long, oh! how long before
people will quit condoning crime
by getting on juries for the sole
purpose of making it easier on
the violators of law?
How long, OH how long before
people will search for truth and
justice and then stand up for
these?
If the good people of this
county would frown down the
lawless and their sympathizers,
the time would speedily come
when lawlessness in our county
would be brought to minimum;
but so long as these people are
hailed as good fellows, just so
long will crimes continue.

Condoning Crime.

Strange as it may seem there
IRE, in every community, those
whose sympathies are with evil
doers, those who take an active
stand in their behalf and who
rejoice when these law breakers
evade the law and come off clear.
1t seems to me this is more
apparent in our county than any
where else, but this may not be
true, for it may be as bad in all
communities.
Is it because these people are
no better than lawless people, or
it is because they are afraid of
them and give them SYM
bathy through fear? Is it be-
cause they believe by so doing
they can make honorable citi-
zens of them, or is it because
they themselves would do the
same things, if they did not fear
The strong arm Of the law. Is
it because they are in favor of
anarchy, or is it a lack of good
Judgment and good hard sense?
If they are in favor of law and
order, they certainly ought to
know that their sympathy and
influence ought to be in that
direction.
There is an old adage that
birds of feather flock together,
and there never was Il truer say
ing. When l see people always
in the company of evil doers |
think Of this old saying and Won
der if these honorable (?) people
are not in fact if not in deed of
the same stripe as those whose
company they keep; but who
keep the outside whitewashed to
deceive.
Any one who will uphold a
thief, knowing him to be a thief,
is no better than he; anyone who
will uphold a law breaker of any
kind and congratulate him when
he evades the law is no better at
heart that such person.
It makes a wonderful differ
