"It can Doe steered or controlled

GROUNDS FOR OPPOSITION.

This quotation shows that the
grounds Of Mr.. Taft's opposition to
me were two-fold. due to the rate
bill and the Brownsville matter.
AS TO the rate bill. Mr.. Taft saws
of me in his letter enumerating the
reasons why he could not accept an
Endorsement for the Pre- ID. ency, If
coupled with an Endorsement OF me
for Senator:
He has opposed the vital policies
and principles Of the administration, 8
and adds as another reason that I
would not vote for the rate bill. al
though requested to do so by the
Ohio Legislature.
'Mr. Taft knew ] had never op-
posed the policy of supervising and
regulating interstate carriers and in
terstate commerce. lie knew that
my opposition to the rate bill was
not because / was opposed to the
general policy of regulation and su-
pervision, but only to some features
of the methods it was proposed by
that measure to employ.
For instance, he knew that my
objection was confined to certain
clauses, among them the rate-making
clause and the commodities clause.
This bill contained some provis-

RESPONSIBILITY on TAFT.

Much more of the same character

authority and fixes responsibility for

Rickeston Tucker, first and foremost
among American anarchists, yesterday
celebrated his 54th birthday. Mr..
Tucker. 1t is true, does not possess a
press agent so versatile as those of his
communist comrades, Alexander Berk-
man and Emma Goldman. He has
never shot capitalist nor melted his
followers to bomb-thrwing, and thus
has largely escaped the attention of
the daily press. Despite this neglect
of anarchist etiquette, Mr. Tucker has

and has fairly won a place in double

Kropotkin, Goodwin. Proudhom, Striner

The popular conception that all an

Mr.. Tucker. who comes of old New
England stock. Incidentally, his chief

hall of fame is also an American

PLANT TROUBLES
AT LA COURT HOTEL

As the result of an accident to the
big heating plant that keeps the
many rooms and apartments of the
LaCourt hotel comfortable during
the winter months, the well known
hostelry was without heat for some
hours today, much to the discomfort
of the guests and the management
A certain coil in one division of
the furnace was blown out and this
coil could not be replaced by any To-
cal machinists, necessitating an or
der being wired to Denver for the
part to replace that which was brok
en-.
However, Water superintendent
b. w. Vedder and Machinist George
Fletcher were called into service,
and it is seldom that two veteran
machinists like these well known cit
izens fail to make things move when
they are called in, and they didn't
fail in this case. The heating plant
was temporarily repaired and the
heat turned ON again.

who was serving time in the Monta-
ma state prison. The convict, thus
armed, made an effort to escape from
the prison. He was prevented from
making his getaway, but not until
he had shot down a guard He con-
fessed that Force had furnished him
with the dynamite and gun. Force
was held on the charge of being an
accessory to the murder of the guard.
He was placed in the penitentiary.
and, being determined to get even
with the man whom he had attempt
ed to aid in escaping from the prison,
watched day by day for an oppor-
tunity to kill the convict, and one
day that opportunity came He
struck the convict on the head with
hatchet or hammer and killed him.
Force then succeeded in making his
escape and ever since that time the
Montana officials had been searching
for the criminal.
1t is said that the evidence against
Force on this murder charge is ov-
erwhelming, and that an effort is
to be made by the Montana authori-
ties to get the Mesa county officials
to surrender Force to them that he
may be tried on the murder charge
instead of being held here and tried
on the horse theft charge.
