mel speaks and his words ravish the ear,
bnt we cannot quite make out the drift
of his argumuut.
With one hand he writes that Mr..
Taft is lofty and admirable character.
and with the other he demands that
every honest American vote for Mr..
Bryan. In one paragraph he pens an
eloquent tribute to Mr.. Roosevelt, and
IN the next he pleads for a war to the
death upon all thing Rooseveltian and
Teddiferous. At the beginning of
strophe he lays down the preamble that
all of Mr.. Taft's best theories of gov
eminent have been filched from the
backyard of Mr. Bryan, and at the end
OF the same strophe he denounces these
sublimities as rubbish. He blows hot,
cold and lukewarm. He kisses, and yet
he smites. He cajoles, and yet he
wallops.
We confess that the ColonePs argu-
ment gives US pause and leaves US at
sea. Is ne pleading for MIR. Taft or for
Mr.. Bryan? Is he in favor of either or
both, or against both or either? Is he
serious when he praises Bi yan and
sarcastic when he praises Taft, or seri-
Gus when he praises Taft and sarcastic
when ne praises Bryan? If he is a
Bryanite, why does he brand as Elm
posUures" the doctrines that Mr.. Taft
has stolen from the Peerless One?
And if he is agin' Mr.. Bryan, why does
he anathematize ''the wild beasts of
pultocracy'' and wax so peevish oyer
prosperity and a mess Of pottage, -
1.-THE old flag and an appropriation, -
Satan ana his Christian Erdeavor
Society and, the "old he-goat, High
Finance AIg,ich"?
We t,Lst that Colonel Wa1terson will
issue revised and dephlogisticated
version of his pronunciamento, in words
of one syllable, for the instruction of
the great masses of the plain people, of
whom we are one. We have searched
it carefully, from end to end; we have
read and re-read it; we haye pondered,
mcditated, cogitated and digested it
and still it puzzles and maddens US. In
its whole vast chain OF syllogisms. prop
ositlons and soaring syntax-in all
its great display of remarks, premises,
whereas and therefor-be-it-re
we discern but one clear statement, and
that is blief and incidental reference
to the Hayes-Tilden controversy, upon
which Colonel Watterson has thought
deeply and Indignantly, day in and day
out, weekday and Sundays, for the past
80 years.
Can it be that the mint juleps Of
Louisville have lost their old virtue?
Do they no longer Intricate the cogs
and crossheads of the human brain, as
was their wont in other and happier
days? Do they nolonger cool, fertllize
and stimulate the human intellect ara
make it work With mathematical pre-
cision? Or is the weather so warm in
Old Kaintuck that even the most gigan-
tic minds are wing? We wonder!
incidentally, we are curious to know
how Mr.. Bryan will accept Colonel
Watter5on's declaration that the gems
of statecraft in his backyard are i'm
pos,1res.

TAFTS VIEW OF PRESIDENCY.
Writes for Golfers Weekly His
Conception Ofthe High Position.

Writes for Golfers Weekly His
Conception Ofthe High Position.
Secretary William H. Taft has writ
ten the following article on his Con
ception of the Presidency" for the
currentissue of Golfers Weekly:
''In the four years that l have been
a member of the cabinet | haye become
familiar enough with the responsible
ties and burdens of the presidency to
know that no man can afford unduly
to seek that great office.
"If he is attracted by honor and
power alone, without the hope of being
useful ne is unworthy of the honor and
unfit for the use Of the power. He
must prefer for the sake of his own
peace of mind never to be President to
beng a poor President. Confident that
the platform on which he stands is for
the best interests Of the nation, he is
untrue to himself and his supporters if
he does not fight valiantly for election
after he accepts the leadership, but of
course ne must draw the line at any
compact which will not leave him free
Of promise and of the control OF any
faction.
The Presidents duties clearly out
lined by the constitution have grown
broader in their Interpretation with the
growth of the country. He should be
in the prime Of years, health and vigor.
The capacity for hard work is a better
equipment than genius in mastering
the essentials Of all the departments Of
the government and undergoing the
strain OF countless interviews.
"He should look not only to those in
office, but to those out of office, in all
branches of private activity for in
formation and opinion in order that he
may arrive at the truth when ne is
surrounded by the conflict Of interests
which come to HIM with the fair words
Of the 81. cial pleader.

sought after, he is the loneliest man in

MAYOR HUGHES HAS
fine GOAT ON HAND
Animal Takes Possession of Part of
Stable and Makes Himself
DisagreeahIe.

One night about six months ago,
three members of a certain secret
society in this city brought billy
goat to "a Broadway livery stable
man, asking him to keep the goat for
them a few days, and they would re-
turn and pay him for keeping him
and take him away.
The night the goat was brought to
the stable there was a large class in
lated into the society of which the
goat is a valuable member and plays
prominent part in all itiatory
ceremonies, and he looked very much
like he had been put through hard
nights work. Thin, hungry, tired
and wornout, he was given a place at
the stable, and fed, and every
thing possible done for his comfort
that could be done for the comfort of

Mayor Has Goat.

This goat is now and has been for
the past six months in the possess
sion of Mayor j. A. Hughes. Mayor
Hughes says he has made his last APP
peal to the men who brought him
there to come and get him, and if he
is not called for by Saturday, he will
be put up and sold at public auction,
and if no one bids on him he will
be given to some small boy to take
him away.
Mayor Hughes said this morning,
while talking to News reporter re-
garding the different antics of the
goat that he did not believe the lodge
which owns the goat would let him
be put up for sale for two reasons,
one was that he thought that the fra
ternal principles of the order were
too strong to allow one of their
brothers to be put up and sold at
auction, and the other was that the
goat knew too much about the in
itiatory ceremonies of the order to
be turned loose.

ECONOMY CARRIED TOO FAR.
Old Mans Thrift That Led Him Into
 Ridiculous Action.

President J. G. Schurman of Cornell was discussing elective college courses, of which in the freshman and sophomore years, he disapproves.
 "A freshman of 16 or IT, said Pres ident Schurman, lis too young to choose for himself the courses best for him. His mind is not mature enough. It will make mistakes.
 'In its immaturity, it's proneness to error, it is like the mind of an old man in my native Freetown. He, though old, was mentally undeveloped, and saw nothing wrong or ridiculous in a piece of economy that he put in practice in the cemetery.
 "The old man had lost four wives, and desired to erect for each a head stone, with an inscription commemora- tive of her wifely virtues.
 "But inscriptions, he found, were very expensive. He economized in this way:
 "He had the Christian name of each wife cut on small stone above her grave-"Emma," Mary" "Hester,' ,' Edith Under each name a hand pointed to large stone in the cen ter of the lot, and under each hand were the words:
 "'For epitaph see large stone.'"

FARMERS' EDUCATIONAL
 AND COOPERATIVE UNION - OF AMERICA =
Just Keeps on Growinq.
OF AMERICA

Taking everything into considera- ton that was brought to bear on the farmers to force them to part with their cotton, and the brave fight they nave made to control the price against the fearful odds is certainly something to be admired. The farm CTS are fast gaining recognition in the business world and the Farmers Union is responsible for it. There was a time, and not very long ago. either, when to speak of organizing the farm CTS for business purposes would pro- yoke sheer or uncomplimentary re- mark from some one, but that time is past The farmer has been organized and he is sticking and he hasn't gone into politics, either Of late we have made 1t point to interview some par. ties who have made a study of the cotton market, and they were men of experience, and they all agree that the movement inaugurated by the Farmers Union to hold cotton and market slowly has held up the price of cotton this season and saved the south from $5 to $15 per bale. Certain papers told us last fall that the farm CTS east of the Mississippi river were selling their cotton as fast as they gathered it, and we fellows here iu Texas were foolish for holding cotton and trying to control the market Now these fellows were smart-they even admitted that they were-but they were as ignorant as a donkey regard ing the cotton situation as they were trying to mislead the farmers. Inves- ugation proved that farmers east of the Mississippi river were holding a larger per cent of their cotton than Texas farmers.
