Theosophists Plan an Active Cam

Chicago, Sept. 16.-Theosophists as
sembled in Chicago for the twenty
second annual convention of the Amer
lean section of TheosophicaI society
discussed ways and means of spreading
the doctrines of the cult more widely
throughout the country. AS a result
of the discussions it is expected that
the propaganda work will take ON new
impetus; that more lecturers Will be
sent to different sections of the coun-
try to expound the principles of theoso-
ply; that more money will be spent
during the coming year than ever be-
fore, and that theosophical literature
Will be distributed widely

America today is more lecturers" said

There never was a time when

free delivery, and all such mat
ters. When what is called the
pork barrel' is opened, as many
Democratic as Republican arms
are thrust in, and both sides
draw out as large slices as they
can seize.
If Mr.. Bryan reaches the
White House he will want Con-
gress to do for him, and so he
will be obliged to do for Con-
gress. He will find himself
powerless if he vetoes appropria-
tions right and left in order to
redeem campaign deliverances
about economy. Bills will be
passed over his vetoes for ap-
preparation bills are always pop
ular-w while measures he desires
will find hard shedding, and may
not get through at all. Uncle
Sans establishment requires a
good deal of money, and stinting
it would not be economy, but, in
the end, the very opposite.

The presidential campaign of
1903 can be identified in future
history as the great season for
baseball enthusiasm.
The difference between Taft
and Bryan is that between
proved craftsmanship and a rail

season it is inferred that Debs
and his Red Special will take to

WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT
A Man Wbo Has Done Things.


Responding to the call of the
nation for a man equal to the
emergencies confronting the re-
public, the people themselves
have found him and presented
him to the electorate.
Naturally, the people sought
among themselves for one truly
representative to the highest
ideals of American citizenship.
Their misunderstanding and
correct valuation of men led
them to the individual who more
thoroughly than any other full
filled their requirements, and
that was William Howard Taft.
William Howard Taft, of Gin
cinnati, Ohio, probably is the
way he would designate himself.
That designation, however, is
grossly inadequate. For while
Mr.. Taft is an American of
Americans, he is also a citizen
of the world, who, as invited
guest, counsellor and advisor of
foreign governments, has exert

HUGHES NOMINATED.

Charles Evens Hughes was
nominated for Governor of New
York, to succeed himself, Tues
day, getting 827 out of 1909
votes on first ballot. The great
hue and cry against his nomina-
tion proved to be but the bark
ing of a lot of very small animals
who all fled when it came down
to a convention fight. Hughes
was all along the strong candi-
date and, like Taft, he is a
Roosevelt favorite.

ed an influence for peace and in
ternational good will unsurpassed
by that of any other American
statesman, living or dead.
The dignity of private citizen
ship, which he enjoys to-day, is
in perfect accord with his tenn
perament and inclination. There
never has been, nor will there
ever be, anything in official hon.
or sufficiently alluring to draw
Mr.. Taft away from his lifelong
identity with the plain people.
AS a boy in Cincinnati he was
ready to give and take in all the
stirring controversies, mental
and physical, which give effect
to the law of the survival of the
fittest. AS a student at Yale he
displayed all the qualities of
wh ole s ONE young manhood
which have made that university
famous, and the endearing traits
of his character were honored at
the reunion of his class during
the recent summer by celebra-
tion more delightful to him, per-
haps, than any other demonstra-
tion of public favor possibly
could be.

The whole state ticket named
by the Republicans at their con-

splendid one. With Jesse Nc

The field for U. S. Senator in
the Republican campaign was
left open by the Republicans,
the convention being unable to
decide upon a choice for its en-
dorsement among the number Of
good men who would like to be
Senator. From indications it
will be an open field and fair
fight when the Assembly meets,
so far as the Republican party is
concerned. The next Assembly,
however, will doubtless arrange
for primary vote on United
States Senator at future cleo
tiOns.

MR.. BR VANS ECONOMY.

From the Washington Star,
Ind't.
Economy is a good cry, but to
be effective it must be illustra-
ted, so to say. Particulars as to
eXtravagances complained of and
as to promised retrenchments
must be given.
This is the difficulty with Mr..
Bryan's latest campaign deliver
ance. 1t is not sufficiently speci-
fic. Appropriations have grown.
But so has the country. The
army and the navy are costing
more than ever before. But they
are doing more work than ever
before. Would Mr.. Bryan halt
the country's growth? Would
he reduce the army to the old
skeleton figure, and stop all ad-
ditions to the navy?
Let US see how that sort of re-
trenchment would work with the
Bryan policies in force.
The peerless leader would have
us haul down the flag immedi-
ately in the Philippines, turn the
country over to the natives, and
warn the outside world to keep
hands off as to the native con-
troll. But what would such
warning be worth in the face of
the continued growth of the ma
val power of other nations and
the decay of our own? What
power would heed it? We should
in issuing it simply make our
selves laughing stock.
Then suppose we should BRAN
dish a sword in the face of the
Orient, Japan in particular, on
the general proposition Of Asiatic
immigration, inviting trouble and
certain to provoke it. If we had
cut off naval increase and put
that service on short commons,
what would inevitably be the re-
suit? War, with this govern
ment unprepared, and European
sympathy scant because of our
cheese-paring policy toward our
national defense. We should oc-
cupy the ridiculous attitude of
having made a bluff without the
means Of supporting it.
AS to other things, Mr.. Bryan
should know, and does know,
that there has been as much
Democratic as Republican sup
port for pensions, for improving
rivers and harbors, for public
buildings, for extending rural
