CONNECTICUT FOR TAFT.
Republican Convention Expected to in-
 derse His Candidacy.

CCTSo r1Is Ianufcdcy.
 Hartford, Conn. May 6.-The state convention of the Republicans of Con- necticut. which will select fourteen delegates to the Chicago convention, met in the Auditorium and heard the address of Rev. Dr. r. s. Luther, presi dent of Trinity college. the temporary chairman. The delegate body was a very large one. and long before the session opened it was evident that there was great contest on over the question of sending United States Sen ators Bulkeley and Brandegee as dele gates at large and whether or not they should he instructed for Secretary Taft if they were chosen.
 The prediction was freely made that fully 90 per cent of the delegates were in favor of Mir. Taft, but of this large percentage there was difference of opinion as to whether the two United States senators should go because the latter had not expressed an opinion fla vorable to MT. Taft. The convention will indorse Secretary Taft's candi- dacy.
 The opening proceedings were brief. The Auditorium was profusely decorat- ed with flags and bunting. The delegates wore for the most part Taft buttons and miniature flags on the lapels of their coats. Just before the conven- ton opened man posted number of pictures of Mir. Hughes about the hall The convention was called to order by Michael Kenealy. who immediately in- troduced Dr. Luther. In the latter's address the record of the Republican party was lauded and the principle of protection approved.

THE IDAHO SCIMITAR.

In these tight times those members of the alliance
who are burdened with multitude of children ought
to be made the preferred creditors of the machine,
whereas the emoluments in this instance were cen-
tered upon domestic establishment with such pau
city of numbers to give it standing at all down
at Salt Lake. where rewards are arranged.
The Pocatello Mail also addresses itself to the case
of the Mormon teacher, George c. Parkinson chosen
by Zion as official representative of the Republi-
can machine in the capacity of regent of the uni
versity saying that he rode passes and collected
his mileage from the State.
While great many members of Congress have
been guilty of identical conduct, the practice is
sdered so reprehensble that North Dakota Federal
Court, not many years ago, sent Deputy United
States Marshal to the pententiary for like ofense.
Other moral lapses it believes, have also afflicted
Mr. Parkinson in official way.
The press opinion of Idaho is becoming positively
interesting in these opening weeks of the campaign.

In the issue of your paper of January II appears
the following
The Scimtar aims to give sound advice at all
times. Whenever it learns of the candidacy of any
Republican for a high office it wonders if the

Immediately preceding his departure for Washington.
We have suspicion that he again received the con-
sent of Joseph F. to more for Congress.
Colonel Hamer, Mr.. Fallon, Fred Reed and others
will do we'll to investigate. There is only one place
for them to campaign successfully. If Our surmise
is correct and French has made satisfactory arrange
ments with the authorities, they will themselves
much worry, work and money, and some humiliation,
by knowing in advance Every one of these aspirants
for Congress, and every candidate for Governor or
Senator, knows absolutely that his only hope of
success is through the favor of the Mormons. If
they are not aware of the fact The Scimitar takes
real pleasure in informing them that the ordinary
Mormon in Idaho doesn't count except in the vot-
ing at the polls When it comes to nominating the
high officers, Senator, Governor and Congressman,
the high officers of the church at Salt Lake deter

their campaigns by making them in Salt Lake.
AS my name appears in the article as an aspirant
for congressional honors, I desire to state, through
the medium of your valuable paper the facts regard
ing my position relative to congressional honors.

Build a Fence Around
That Cabin!

Editor Bismarck Tribune. Dear sir:
Kindly give me space for a few words
of protest against the careless manner
in which the state looks after the Roose-
velt log cabin on the capitol grounds
If that cabin is worth preserving in
memory of the days when one of the
worlds greatest statesmen was resi-
dent Of the plains of North Dakota, it
should be preserved against thieves and
vandals. At present it is in danger of
being carried away peacemeal. Con-
ceited fools are carving and writing
their Insignificant names on the logs,
and thieves are cutting it up into SOU
venirs;;" the doors have been torn from
the hinges and insects are busy assisting
in the destruction of those famous logs
which for two years sheltered the man
who by many is considered to be
Americas greatest president
It would be better to burn it to the
ground and be done with it than to pre-:
tend to preserve it and at the same
time allow it to be destroyed by slow
process.
/ don't mean to say that there is any
thing asacred about that cabin but it
proved to be of great interest as a his
torical relic to the multitudes who
visited the St. Louis exposition in 1904
| and it is safe to say that the coming
generations will give it a place of hon
or among the most. interesting memen-
! tos Of the past.
If North Dakota does not want the
I Roosevelt cabin there are no doubt other
states anxious to secure it and are will
ling to provide for its protection
| II it is to remain in Bismarck, the
Legislature, should as soon as possible
appropriate money to erect a 12-foo
high ornamental iron fence around the

you can easily acquire basis OF credit

can wear them to al the swell func-
tons and pay for them in six months

HOW TO BECOME GREAT
BY J. s. Knauss

. ~ z ? y i ! HH 4
In order to become great it is neces-.
sary to have high ideals. These ideals
should have an elevation Of at least 20
thousand feet above sea level. This will
enable you to walk along the street with
out discovering any of the other inhabi-
tants. In case anyone who has been
browsing around close to the earth
should be SO rude as to attempt to reach
YOU by the personal conversation route,
all you will have to do will be to swell
out your chest, throw back your head
and stare at him as though he were a
n1icrobe of the pre-glacial period, inn
possible to classify. This will give him
a proper sense of his own inferiority and
Of your greatness and he won't do it
again.
Some have intimated that brains are
a requisite of greatness. After indefati-
gable study, covering a period of less
than thirty minutes, we unequivocally
pronounce this untrue The case you
should happen to be afflicted with such
an impeachment as brains, either acquir-
ed or hereditary you will have to make
the best of it, though it is generally
easy to conceal such a defect from any
friends you might possess or whom you
are unable to shake.
z + u . +. ! -
One of the main essentials Of great
ness is silence. If you feel that you
have a gurgling feeling in your throat
and have a presentament that word
or two are about to escape into the
surrounding atmosphere, better throttle
it at once for if some eaves-dropper
blind in both ears, should be in the
vicinity without an Edison sound mag

tell his neighbor that you talked the

Ever since the beginning Of the now
