LOCAL TAFT CLUB ORGANIZED
An Enthusiastic Meeting in the City Hall
Monday Night-fuii Force of
Officers Elected

The city hall was crowded Monday
evening with republican admirers of
Roosevelt who were induced to come
out and assist in the organization of a
Taft campaign club. 1t was evident
that those who favored an organization
to boost Mr.. TAFT for president were
prompted solely because they believed
that Mr.. Taft stood for and was pledged
to carry out the Roosevelt policy.
Every mention of the president S
name brought out small demonstra-
ton.
The meeting was called to order by
DR.. w. w. Elmer, who stated that at a
previous meeting committee was APP
pointed to draw up set of by laws for
the club.
Chairman Taylor presented the re-
port OF the committee, and with some
slight notifications the by laws pre-
pared by the committee were adopted.
After the adoption Of the by laws

Coy and VIM. Roach.
The by laws provide for fee OF one
dollar as annual dues. Some fifty men,
bers enrolled their names.
The club unanimously pledged its
faith in the president and his policy,
and that every member would do all in
his power to secure the selection oil
w. H. Taft as the republican candidate
for president.
For the next few weeks the club
will meet in the city hall every Monday
evening at 8 o'clock.
A committee was appointed to pro-
cure copy of the primary election

meeting of the club, and also sample
of the ballot to be used, so that mem.
bers of the club may familiarize them.

The secretary was instructed to pro

write to parties at Blewett and Wenat

MONOPOLE Club GIVES DANCE
The Saturday Night Dance Drew Very
Large Crowd

The first dance given by the Mono

If the future efforts of the club prove
as great in the way of drawing a crowd
the boys will have no cause to regre,
that they organized the club.
1t was not exactly private affair but
all attendants had to show their invita-
ton at the door. Some forty or fifty
couples were present, as many as could
find room on the floor.
Dancing was INDUCED in until mid
night when a very substantial and
appetizing lunch was served.

Unless! The thought came TO me and

The door opened softly and closed.
A gigantic person, whose purple face
indicated many years of luxurious living,
stood before me.
Il hope you enjoyed your dinner he
said, in soft, we'll modulated tones
Il am your prisoner. Why do you waste
courtesy upon me?" answered, with
anger almost choking me.

confusion which would tell that / had
recognized the portrait.
