ponents think them aeleep. In a room secured for headquarters there are daily received from the naitteedIhhg' 'ead- quarters great bundles of literature, the most of which are speeches by Taft, Sherman, and other men of national reputation, all dealing with the questions of the time.
 Thousands of pictures of Taft and Sherman and buttons by the tens of thousands have been received These are being done up in the smaller bundles and sent out to the Republi- cans on the executive committees mailing list. The recipient is expect ed to do just what those in charge of the state headquarters do with the packages they receive, make them in- to smaller ones and send them to the voters. The postoffice receipts are at least benefited by the Republican outlay in Arkansas.

PROTESTS AGAINST BULGARIAN RAILROAD

Constantinople, Sept. 26.-The Porte has appealed to the powers against the occupation of the Eastern Roumanian section of the Oriental Railway by Bulgarian troops. Bulga- ria took advantage of the recent strike to occupy the line, but it was the understanding that the troops would be withdrawn when the strike was over. The strike collapsed Sep tember 20, but the troops are still in occupation of the railway, and Bulga- ria now says it is question between the railroad company and Bulgaria, and with which Turkey has no con- cern. The occupation of the line has created a diplomatic incident of ex- treme gravity.

tween the parties according to their respective votes four years ago. Some of the Herald's headlines are Illuminating as for instance: For mer Elections Are Laid Down as Pre- cedents, But Tn the Present Circum- stances There Are New Features
 Which Are Puzzling Even to the
 Wisest Prophets That Bryan is Stronger Than Ever Before is .Admit- ted Stories From the Middle West and West Show That He Is Making Valiant Fight, While in the East, on the Surface at Least, His Party Is United for Him. New York Situation Is Grave, It Is Admit ted and the Machine Republicans Are Being Forced to Work for the Reelection of Man They Admit They Dislike
 The peculiar value of the figures above given and the comment as in the headlines lies in the fact that The Herald is notably ac- curate in it's election calculations. It would probably not like to have it's present calculations accepted as a definite forecast for the election is seven weeks distant from to-day and within that time many and violent may occur.

This is the firz instance in the history of the republic that a candidate for the great office of president has felt the necessity of having attached to him the modern press agent The fact that Judge Taft has on his train three newspaper men, who are supposed to look after the publicity end of this Western trip, is indicative of the extremity in which he finds himself There is a striking contrast in the campaign of the great men who have aspired to the presi- dency in the past. and that of the Re publican candidate this year George Washington and all his immediate successors reached the voting public on horseback.
