BRYAN BOSSES DIG
INTO THEIR COIN
Arrive at Chicago to Confer and
Are Called Upon to Contrib
ute to the Cause
The COmm0ner and Mack Views
Taft's Speech Making Plans
With Alarm

CHICAGO, Sept. S.-Preliminary to
the invasion of the east by William j..
Bryan, members oft he'd mocratic ma
tional committee held a council of war
today and for several hours studied
over the plans that have been devised
to bring the democratic cause to vic
tory.
While the national committeeman
We're in session there were conferences
of the finance and advisory committees
and late today all three committees
Joined in general conference in which
Bryan took leading part.
Bryan will probably take the stump
during the entire. month of October.
With the announcement that Taft will
make speaking trip through the mid
die west and the west, the democratic
leaders believe Bryan should continue
his speaking trips until the campaign
ends. National committeeman from the
far west are trying to prevail upon
Chairman Mack to send the candidate to
the Pacific coast states, but whether
Bryan will make the long westward
swing will depend in great measure on
plans made for Taft's stumping tour.
w. j. Bryan told the democratic ma
uonal committee that he and Kern had
presented the issues carefully, and he
was absolutely confident he would be
tion to hold. the ground that had been
gained. The outlook for victory, said
Bryan, was much brighter than 1T was
month ago. The candidate told the
committeeman he was more than pleased
with the work of the national committee
and hoped the work would be continued
with the same spirit.
All democratic members of the United
States senate and house of representa-
tives and democratic governors have
been requested to lend their services
to the campaign.
Colonel Wetmore, chairman of the
finance committee. informed the COM
mittee that funds were being received
in small amounts, which, in the aggre
gate, totaled a large sum. Colonel Wet
more said he believed the committee
would have all the money it needed to
pay campaign expenses. After Colonel
Wetmore's speech several members of
the committee volunteered contribu-
tions to the campaign fund.
The Bryan and Kern businessmen's
association, with Nathan Straus Of New
York as president and E. l.. Goltra OF
st. Louis as vice president, was formal
ly launched upon the political sea at a
meeting of the democratic national
committee here today. The work of or
sanizing these clubs, which are expect
ed to appeal strongly to the business
interests of the country, will be begun
with vigor Immediately.

TAFT DETERMINES
TO TOUR COUNTRY
Republican Nominee Proves His
Ability to Make Good in
a Campaign
Candidate for President Prom
ises to Continue Policies
of Roosevelt

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Sept. S.-That
William III. Taft will make COM
plete and extensive tour of the United
states before the November election
may be announced tonight as the per-
sonal determination of the candidate.
Taft will rely on the. record made by
himself today as proof complete of his
ability to make good in campaign
OF travel Besides the physical capac-
1ty of speaking from north to south,
through the state of Ohio, Taft made
himself the aggressor in the political
fight.
He said in his first and principal
speech of the day, at Sandusky, that II
elected president he would devote his
best energies to constructive recon-
mendations to congress for legislation
which would clinch the Roosevelt
policies of business honesty.
At the same time he made it clear
that by the regulation by the govern
ment. of interstate business capital
should not be discouraged.
Taft also pledged himself to further
the policy of government supervision
OF the issue of stocks and bonds of
interstate railroads.
Later in the day he declared the
republican party had made the best
record in labor legislation since Wash
ingtons time, in the last seven years.
Still later, in his flying trip through
the state, Taft declared with great
emphasis that Bryan and the demo-
cratic party were responsible for at
least two years of fighting in the
philippines, which would have been
unnecessary in the absence of opposi-
tion in this country. :.
The personal demonstration of Taft
as campaigner. added to the posi-
tive apnouncements he made in his
numerous speeches, constituted an i'm
portant epoch in the republican cam
paign.
Taft. who is comfortably ensconced
tonight at the home here of his
brother, Charles p. Taft, began the
day with an address to the veterans at
the Soldiers home, Sandusky.
Tifin was next on the map, and Mr..
and Mrs. Taft left the train and
mounted stand near the station
Here Taft gave his views on labor. He
opposed class legislation, but favored
such enactments as would place labor
on an equal footing with capital in
making contracts for service.

TOWNS IN CLUTCH
OF FIRE DEMON
Minnesota Forest Conflagration
Sweeps All Before 1t and
People Flee for Lives

DULUTH, Sept. S.-Hibbing, the
largest and most prosperous town on
the Mesaba range, is threatened with
destruction by fire. Every place Of
business in the town is closed and the
men are all out fighting the flames
Chief Black of the Duluth fire de-
partment, with a number of men and
an engine. left Duluth shortly after 4
o'clock for the scene of the fire. The
Mesaba road has trains in waiting at
Hibbing to take the people away from
the scene Of danger.
Unless the wind changes Coleraine
and Bovey will be safe from the fire,
for the present at least.
Grand Marais. Mimi. on the north
shore, is in the clutches of the fire
demon. The people are in worse straits
than the range people, in that they
have no place to fee to.
Forest fires are raging within a
mile of the town. Settlers in the coun-
try along the north shore are walk
ing into Grand Marais, smoke be-
grimed. burned and exhausted, with
packs of their most valuable belong
ings on their backs and their families
dragging along behind them. The
woods are dry as tinder, as there has
not been a drop of rain in the north
shore country for IA weeks. The fire
is rushing down upon the town in
great bounds. The smoke, according
TO A J. Smith, who came to Duluth
this morning, is growing so dense that
breathing is difficult The citizens fear
suffocation before a boat can reach
them.
Smith says that an east wind will
bring on the destruction of Grand
Marais in an hour and no power on
earth can save the town. If a fire
comes before a boat gets there the fate
Of the population of the little town is
a matter of considerable doubt.
Settlers may be forced TO take refuge
in the waters of Lake Superior. A
frantic appeal for help was sent to
Duluth today by the steamer America,
which brought down many Of the set
tiers. The United States steamship
Gopher, with two companies of the
navy reserves, will leave for the north
shore this evening with provisions and
will pick up all settlers found along
the shore.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, Sept. S.-Re-
ports that an attempt had been made
to shoot President Roosevelt apparently
have their origin in the fact that the
hunting season has opened on Long
Island and there is considerable shoot
ing daily in the outlying districts.
Close investigation fails to show any
overt act directed against the president.
1t is his custom to ride every day cover
ing various routes in the countryside,
and it is not unusual for him to encoun-
ter parties of hunters. Also there is a
shooting club which engages in target
practice not far from Sycamore Hill.
Mr.. Loeb, secretary to the president,
said today it was not believed for mo-
ment that any one had tried to do harm
to Mr.. Roosevelt and no attention what
ever was being paid to the matter off,
cially.
BOSTON, Sept S.-The police of this
city believe that John Coughlin, who
was arrested by secret service agents
at oyster Bay yesterday is John
Coughlin of Walpole, Mass, who has
been missing for ten days. His home
here is near the Walpole-Foxboro line
and not far from the Foxboro home for
inebriates. The man arrested at Oyster
Bay said that he had been an inmate
of an insane asylum in Walpole. but
there is no such institution in the town.

The cost of transporting ore on wire ropeways varies considerably with the conditions under which the line oper- ates. The important factors are dis tance, topography of the country over which the line passes and the amount of material handled. In Colorado one aerial tramway was operated at cost Of 70 cents per ton or ore handled, about 300 tons per day being sent from mine to mill, over distance of two miles. The capacity of the installation was 400 tons daily, and had the line been operated to it's full capacity the cost, it is stated, would have been less than l4 cents.-M. X M. Journal.
