REPORT ABOUT PENNSYLVANIA
Presidents Letter to Knox Said to
Have Been Timed to Help
on Congress.

President Roosevelt heard from Indiana
today. While the news as to the state
ticket and legislature was by no means
encouraging. he was told that the national
ticket is safe. and will carry the state by
good majority. The visitor was Hugh
T. III. Miller lieutenant governor. and
who was formidable candidate for gov
ernor in the Republican state convention.
MIR. Miller did not indicate that the calling
o. the Legislature in extra session and the
passage of a county local option law a
few weeks ago had put the temperance
question out of the fight and given the
republicans free sailing. The anti-temper-
ance people are just as active as before
the Legislature met, and are fighting now
to elect a governor and legislature that
will repeal the existing law. and give
township option.
II cannot see that Bryan has any chance
of carrying Indiana" said Mr. Miller.
after he had talked with the President.
THE situation has been getting much
better on both national and state tickets
since October 1. and will continue to get
better until election day.

The mayor then delivered the royal ad-

history of the cordial relations that have
existed between the two countries. in

This is what the great President of the
United States has said your navy stands
for, a power never used except to lber-

TO save the country from aggression and

assurance that in this welcome the real

Japan's Message to America.
japan believes that war between
America and Japan would be a crime

The address was received with the wild

of Rear Admiral Sperry, which was

Talk About Pennsylvania.

vania spent some time with the Presi-
dent, but he said he did not care to
discuss politics Everywhere among re-
publicans it is taken for granted, that
Pennsylvania will roll up great repub-
lican majority. Senator Knox said at
the White Mouse a few days ago that
the majority would be between 35O. 0Ol
and 100000. However. as surprising as 1t
may look. there are some alarmists even
as to Pennsylvania. Some reports declare
that the almost solid, mass, of miners
throughout the state are for Bryan. and
that the labor vote is. disaffected in all
parts of the state How much difference
this would make. if true. nobody can say.
Republican leaders pay little attention
to this talk about Pennsylvania being
shaky. The letter of President Roosevelt
to Senator Knox. printed today and deal
ing with the labor question to large
extent. is expected to help in Pennsyl-
saw the President a week ago. is believed
to have told him that such a document as
his letter was necessary to save num-
Der Of republican representatives.
Joe Chapple Caller.
Joe Mitchell Chapple, editor OF the Ma
tional Magazine. of Boston. talked with
the President as to the political situa-
ton. He has travelled a great deal and
With the farmer vote satisfied with
the republicans and the people coming
to know Mr.. Taft better and better each
day and to like him for himself, the
election seems to be foregone con-
clusion.' said Mr.. Chapple.
George l.. Cain, president of the Ma
tional League of Employees Of Navy
Yards, Navy Stations and Arsenals, has
written President Roosevelt thanking
him for what he has done for labor and
severely attacking Samuel Gompers. He
accuses Mr.. GOmpers of having tried
to ruin the league of which he is presi-
dent and asks President Roosevelt to
give him permission to engage Gompers
in joint debate on the question: why
the wage earners Of the country should
support the republican party"
Mr.. Cain proceeds to give the Presi-
dent and republican party credit for
many things done for the betterment of
labor. including higher rates of pay in
government institutions Saturday half
holidays. weekly payment of wages, etc.

BROKE EVEN ON GAMES
PLATTVILLE SERIES
Lancaster and PlatteviIle Each
Got One Game.
Both are Evenly Matched Teams-Next
Week Lancaster Tries Issues
with Viroqua.

The first game played at Plattev lille
this week was won by the locals by
the score of s to 6. 1t was fairly
fast game and but for the trying out
of an ambitious twirler by Lancaster
the Platteville END of the score would
have Deen much smaller. Bruner,
this is the name of the above men
toned pitcher, makes his home in
Platteville and is an old Lacquer. He
seemed anxious to prove his abilities
as slab artist and manager Friend
finally consented to try him out. He
was all right until the fourth and then
made his ascension, Platteville MAX
ing four runs off of him in this stanza.
With three men on bases and one
man out Friend fused the hook and
replaced Mr. Bruner by Rex Ames,
who retired the side without a score.
The rest of the game was easy sled
ding for the locals. The score by in
nings follows:
R.H.E.
Platteville. OO1 000O0-6 8 z
Lancaster. 10421O 000-9 s 2
4@ Batteries Bruner, Arnes and Gleg-
horn; Lark and Smith.
One of the best games played in
this section is the universal verdict of
the second game at Platteville, in
which Friends bunch were beaten out
1 to 0. Piddington was on the hurl-
ing hill for Lancaster and Negar for
Platteville. Both did good work; the
former striking out men and the lat7
ter 4. Negar allowed 1 hit and Pid-
dy A. Back of this pitching was fine
support, Lancaster making the only
three errors in the entire contest and
they were not costly ones. These
three were made in a row in the
fourth Platteville earned their on e
run.
Not very large crowd was present
to witness the game but much enthus-
iasm was manifested. With two
teams as evenly matched as Platte
Vile and Lar caster there should be q
large attendance at every game.
Gleghorn made the one hit for the
locals, it being a pretty single that he
beat out to first. Manager Friend
flied out a couple of times on what
looked to be a home run and two
Dagger. The fielding of both teams
could hardly have been better and
what would have been hits in most
games were spoiled in this contest.

Decision Cannot Be Made Until Tick

The vice presidential question is
still in an unsettled condition. The
convention will nominate the head of
the ticket before any definite vice
presidential deliberations are held.
Governor Folk. of Missouri, said that
Mr. Bryan had told him he hoped
Judge Gray would be the vice presi-

to whether Judge Gray would accept

but some definite understanding with
relation TO this is expected to reach tie

Many vice presidential rumors are

but the aspirants themselves admit
that they will have no definite line on
the situation until the presidential can

and is waiting for the president to be
disposed of. Tammany, ever uncer-
