Taft ard CooIie Labor.

The COLUMBIA State says: "Mr.
Roosevelt has already had to rush
to the support of his nominee. 1t
seems that the war department had
contracted for khaki from British
firms that employ Chinese coolie la
Dor. This was peril, indeed, to
Mr.. Taft, whose record on labor mat
tiers is already sore trouble to him;
but he did not nave the nerve or,
probably the right to cancel the con-
tracts, and retired from Office leaving
the khaki contracts in the hands of
alien firms employing coolie labor.
But the American khaki makers got
very busy and have been after the
administration tooth and nail, shov-
ell and tongs. OF course alien con-
tracts and coolie labor were ugly
things to 80 into campaign with,
and Mr.. Roosevelt without regard to
whether or not he has the right to
cancel the contracts has ordered them
violated. He may, however have to
give part of the work to the coolie
employing foreign firm. The Amer
lean manufacturer and the Ameri-
can laborer will he heard from on
this subject. often and loud.

Campaign Lie Nailed.

The following from a North Caro-
lima editor was received at Fairview:
'Tom Watson quotes you as
saying you would never vote for
a Confederate veteran. Does
this misrepresent you?"
In reply Mr.. Bryan telegraphed
that he had never made any such
statement; that he had voted for a
Confederate veteran for speaker of
the house Of representatives On
three occasions; that he voted for
Speaker Crisp twice on roll calls,
first in the Fifty-second Congress and
again in the Fifty-third congress,
and voted in caucus for him in the
Fifty-third congress-; he recommend
ed an ex-Confederate for postmaster
at Lincoln, and while in congress en-
tertained the best relations with the
ex-Confederates. In addition to
this, Mr.. Bryan voted for Senator
Cockrell of Missouri, a Confederate
Brigadier, as the Democratic Presi-
dental candidate in the Democratic
National convention of 1904. MIR.
Watson will have to make his asser-
ton good or admit that he has been
guilty of putting into circulation a
mean campaign lie.

How Jealous Actress "Got Even
With an Associate.
Elmer B. Harris, the playwright,
tells an interesting story of a chorus
girl in the August American Maya
zine. It is a complete picture of
life on the stage. Following is one
of the yarns told:
II suppose there are lots of little
iealousies in the chorus?" I continu-
ed, like reporter.
"Jealousies-oh, la, la! I rem
ember a ballet dancer who had it in
for me because I didn wear SYM
metricals and she had to, though
she never admitted it. 'Symmetri-
cals!' she'd say, and put her nose
up this -see?-this way. 1

"And, my very, only dear, 7 wish
you could have seen them-like
Christmastree stockings; you couldn't
tell which were oranges and which

beautiful figure from the front, and
there was a fellow in love with her.
Oh, he was the sickest thing! My
word! Trembled so he couldn't light
a cigarette, and got all sobbed up
whenever she spoke to him. A prize
fighter, I think. One night she and
me were coming out or the theater
together and he met US. and she, as
usual, gave him her bundle to carry.
Just as We got into the light at the
corner it dropped and smashed open
on the cement And there, right In

Don't Mind Lieing.

''The National Republican COM
mittee will accept no contributions
from corporations )" says Mr.. Taft,
But the treasurer Of the committee
knows differently, and he has al
ready announced that corporations
could get rid Of their money to adj
vantage by depositing with him.
The Charleston Post very truly says
''the utterances Of the Republican
candidate for President on a matter
Of this sort is really Of very little
Importance, as was abundantly
shown in 1904, when Mr.. Roosevelt
most positively and vehemently
swore that not cne cent was being
solicited or received from the corpo-
rations for the benefit of his cam
paign, when, as was afterwards
proved beyond peradventure, Chair
man Cortelyou and Treasurer Bliss
were regular and persistent callers
upon the controllers of big corpora
tions, and seldom went away empty
handed while Mr.. Roosevelt himself
appealed to that undesirable citi

sum of $3.50, 900 which was promptly

is right. Roosevelt did not hesitate
to lie about the matter of contribu.
tions, and neither will Taft or any

Assuming that the foregoing ta'
bles are correct, we see that Bryan
| has a slight advantage---13 electoral
votes to be accurate--over Taft at

bles are based upon the best judg-
ment Of persons supposed to be IA

And now we come to the doubtful
states. Lets see what they offer,
bearing in mind information gather
ed from Democrats at a Democratic
convention, and from citizens gener-
ally.
There are fifteen doubtful states.
so called. Some Of them may not
be doubtful at all. Some Of them
may be Democratic beyond doubt;
some Of them may be Republican
surely. But just the same they are
classed doubtful. They have 164
votes in the electoral college, more
than can be conceded to either Taft
or Bryan.
Bryan must get so of the elector-

Bryan Has Good Chance.

A correspondent Of the Atlanta
journal who attended the Denver
Convention says the Democratic
party must look to the west and
the middle west if BRYAN is to be
elected, assuming ,hat the s"lif
south remains solid, which it will
most likely do. Of course, there
are New York, New Jersey, Connec-
ticut and Rhode Island to be reck-
oned with but the leaders are de-
pending more largely on great big
gains in the west and middle west,
rather than on winning many of the
eastern states. The following fore
cast of the election is made by the
Journal correspondent after talking
with leading Democrats and Others
from all parts of the country:
There are now in the electoral
college 48S votes. It will take 24z
to elect, and Bryan has q mighty
good cha1.ce, if the men supposed tt
know really know and knowing tel
| the truth. The solid south is com
posed Of eleven states. controlling
12O electoral votes. Bryan is sure
Of these. They are:

Granting that Taft will carry New
York, New Jersey. West Virginia,
Delaware, Idaho. Rhode Island and
Wisconsin, he would still be 8 votes
short of enough to elect, All Of
those states are de batable, too. not
ably Idaho. Rhode Island and Wis
consin. New York, also, is extreme
ly doubtful, and if Tsmmany re-
mains loyal, as Murphy promises,
the Empire State will give Bryan 8
majority.
OF the fifteen doubtful states,
Brvan seems to have the best chance
in g majority of them, everything
considered. Bryan would seem to
