ClINCH!

"If l am elected, propose to devote
all Of the ability that is in me to the
constructive work of suggesting to
congress the means by which Roose-
welt policies shall be clinched.'
Taft has again spoken in an open
and sincere fashion. showing all the
world that the issue is as 1t has been
all through the campaign-"Shall we
or shall we not elect the man who will
enforce the law with fearlessness and
impartiality" That is the question of
the campaign.
The rumors circulated BY democrats
that Taft is a reactionary" will re-
ceive their death blow. The people
stood behind Roosevelt in his two
terms, supporting his policies at every
turn, Does Mr.. Bryan think to deceive
the people on the score OF whose poll
cies they are? The movement Of strin-
gent law enforcement was inaugurated
by Roosevelt. The movement for leg
islation to cover all abuses was inau-
gurated by Roosevelt The people
know that.
Roosevelt has the confidence of the
people and when Roosevelt indorses
Taft as a man eminently fitted to car
ry out his policies they know that Taft
and not Bryan is the inheritor of those
policies which were inaugurated by
Roosevelt and the republican party.
No amount of talk on Bryan's part
can change the situation. What as.
surance have Americans that six
months from now Bryan Will de.
clare that he has invented new
plan which is not the sponsorship OF
Rooseveltian policies. He has left the

A traveller in Egypt writes: with all
its heat and dust the desert has it's
charms. True. the desert dust is an
blow the desert is shrouded in dust
vast swirling clouds through which no
eye can see. But when the dust storms
have blown over and the desert is
calm again you forget the dust, for
the desert dust is dusty dust. but not
dirty dust. Compared with the aw-
full organic dust of New York, Lon
don or Paris it is inorganic and pure.
''On those strips Of the Libyan and
Arabian deserts which lie along the
Nile the desert dust is largely made
up of shredded royalty, of withered
Ptolemies, of faded Pharaohs, for the
tombs Of queens and kings are count
ed here by the hundreds and Of their
royal progeny and their royal retain
ers by the thousands. These desiccat-
ed dynasties have been drying so long
that they are now quite antiseptic.
Dust Of these dead and gone kings
makes extraordinarily fertile soil for
vegetable gardens when irrigated with
the rich waters Of the Nile. Their
mummies are also said to make excel
lent pigments for the brush. Rameses

SURE HER TOOTH WAS OUT.


Force of lima gfnAttOn as Exemplfned
In, Dentists Chair.
Dentists have splendid opportunity
of studying the power Of imagination.
= New York practitioner by way Of H.
Jus ration told a reporter about one of
his women patients. She entered, &C
companied by her husband, and, point
ing to her swollen face, asked the
dentist to extract the offending tooth.
He placed her in the chair and, taking
the small hand glass which dentists
use, put 1T into her mouth for the pur-
pose of exallining the molar which
was to be extracted.
The glass had no sooner touched the
tooth than she uttered a frightful
scream and, bouncing out of the chair,
rushed out into the waiting room, cry
ing that her jaw was broken. The
united efforts of her husband and the
dentist were for some time unable to
persuade her that the tooth was not
extracted and that she could not pos
sibly have been hurt. After examining
her mouth with the aid of a glass she
finally became convinced that the tooth
was still in it's place. Taking her seat
in the chair again. she submitted to the
operation of extracting the tooth with
out a murmur and expressed her sur
prise that the pain was so slight.

man? The question is not. Where
does he stand?' but Where will he
standT'
Taft is not whirligig, neither Is he
a moving picture show. He will follow
out the policies of Roosevelt which
have been the ideas of the highest re-
publicanism. He is sincere and will
not go back on the words which he
uttered yesterday, nor at the time of
his notification. Why? Because his
whole life has been an embodiment of
those very ideas-hone3ty, justice and
impartiality, which are the real
Roosevelt policies" That is why he
can truly say that he will support and
maintain those policies. And that is
why the people can believe him.

THAT AFFAIR IN IOWA.

No snarl in factional politics is
more bitter than the present fight in
Iowa over the senatorship which was
made vacant by the death of Senator
Allison.
Governor Cummins more than any
man before the public view shares
two different reputations-that of the
protector of the Roosevelt policies
abroad and that Of a man fired with
the ambition which stops at nothing
at home. In as much as these two
impre ssions are at large, it is hard to
know exactly what the truth is.
Certain it is at any rate that Cover
nor Cummins has made many enem-
ies-so much so that in case he re-
signed today his own lieutenant COVER
nor would not appoint him to office.
Within the last week he has dis
rupted the entire party by calling a
special session at an expense to the
state of thousands of dollars for the
sole purpose of attaining his own cleo.
ton. He has plead with the leaders
and bulldozed the legislators. He told
the legislators that he must have the
short term and the long term or he
would resign.
Yesterday, the thing came to a head
The caucus that selected Cummins
was composed of less than half the re-
publican legislators. When the ma
ter came to vote, Cummins was not
in it.
Cummins made an announcement
that he was surprised that the party
had not abided by its caucus. Thus ii
seems that the man whom many in
Iowa think has been led on purely by
his own ambition, is shelved.
Cummins personal unpopularity is
such that one branch of the party
would rather see the senatorship &C
to the democrats than to Cummins
In such a perplexity Iowa stands
aghast.
Within the last few days Cummins
has made such a muddle of the whole
affair that no one will be surprised al
the outcome.
One of the most singular things
about the whole situation is the fac
that as elsewhere, factions in the re
publican party will have very little tt
do with the national election.

BRYAN AND THE PHILIPPINES.

At Carey, O., yesterday Taft discuss
ed the Philippine question in regard to
w. J. Bryan. No man knows more
than Taft the situation in the eastern
possessions. He was the man who had
TO bear the brunt of the disturbance
of the ''anti-imperialists" led on and
headed by w. J. Bryan.
While Bryan and others were loud in
their denunciation of our government
in its treatment of the Philippines
our own flesh and blood was kept for
two years longer in exposure, not only
to the hostile sun and deadly fevers,
but to the rifles of ignorant natives
who were opposing their own welfare
Is it not 4 blot on the 'scutcheon of
any man, not only to stand in the path
of humanity and civilization, but to
cause needless and unnecessary blood
shed of our own soldiers, and the very
natives whom they professed to cher
ish?
1t is we'll to remember that William
Howard Taft has done more for the
natives of the Philippines than w. ].
Bryan. w. J. Bryan impeded the sit
uation in the Philippines for two years.
William Howard Taft governed the
islands wisely and we'll and did more
for them than any other man. So ii
is that Bryan has his record which
stands among those things not con-
| tanned in the PLATFORM" a subterfuge
by which he would escape the awful
responsibility of his acts. Taft has
| no reason to conceal his rccord-there
it stands as a matter of public record
of which any man would be deservedly
proud.
Mr.. Bryan may hope that the coun-
| try has rgotten-forgotten like the
graves of the soldiers and natives for
whose deaths he is responsible. Some
where there is place still vacant at q
table and-somebody remembers.

Ireland Called Many Names.

Few countries have suffered so many
changes of name as Ireland. In the
time of Ptolemy the island was known
as Scotia. Diodorus Siculus calls the
island Irs or Irisi: in the DE Mundo,"
credited by some scholars to Aristotle
it is called Irenne: in the "Argonau-
tica Of Orpheus" 1t appears as Irinus;
Strabo calls it Irene; Caesar, Tacitus
and Pliny mention il as Hibernia; Mela
called il Juverna- The native names
In Celtic are IT. Err and Erin. Piutarch
mentions II under the name of Ogygia.

from the native Ir or Fri. but when ii
came into general use is a question

STRANGE ACCIDENTS.
Broken Neck rs the Result of the
Turn of a Foot.

Turn of a Foot.
"The man who fell out Of bed and
broke his neck will scarcely attract
more than passing notice." said a
thoughtful man, for there have been
many cases equally remarkable. 1 re-
call one case where a mans neck was
broken by a very slight turn of his
foot. He attempted to catch himself
that is, to preserve his balance-and
the effort was of such violence that he
broke his neck. Many men have bro
ken their necks by sudden stumble
and fall on the sidewalk or by being
knocked down by some hurrying pedes-
trian, or by street car or vehicle of
some sort
1T is not at all uncommon for a po-
liceman, with no intention Of doing
more than subdue an unruly member,
to break an offenders neck by rapping
him over the head with his club Some
times the fall which follows and some
times the blow breaks the neck of the
offender. Sometimes sudden, violent
motion of the head, quick jerking
motion, the kind we make when dodg-
ing, will break the neck.
Il recall a case where a man threw
his neck out Of joint without breaking
it by throwing his head to one side in
an effort to dodge a bullet fired at
him at short range. The bullet passed
through the rim of his hat. Even after
that he carried his head tilted over the
right shoulder and was never able to
straighten it." - New Orleans Times
