WHY PEOPLE WANT TAFT.

The people want Taft because.
when he is called upon to face pub
lie duty. he does not ask. Will it
pay me politically to do this. or not
to do that but on the contrary.
his guiding thought is What shall
do with this question. or this duty.
in the best interest of my country"
Finding for himself the answer to
that self-sacri6cing, patriotic ques-
zion. he acts accordingly.
The people want Taft because he
has successfully performed every pub
lie duty which has been intrusted to
his charge. since he received his first
public appointment, as assistant
prosecuting attorney for Cincinnati,
0. The people want Taft because
of his successful organization of the
Philippine Civil Commission; his adj
ministration of the islands and his
adaptation thereto of American forms
of government: his missions in those
islands to various divisions of natives
and their pacification; his vigorous
unfolding of the flag and the submits
sion thereto of the insurrectos: his
support of American education for the
people of all ranks. classes. condi-
lions and creeds: his fearless advo-
cacy then and since and now of the
rights of the Fillipinos to equal treat
ment under our laws.
The people want Taft because when
but recently. revolution threatened
our great trade and investment inter-
ests in Cuba. he hurried down there,
and by diplomacy and candor averted
the catastrophy. inducing the malcon-
tents on both sides to accept pro-
visional government at American
hands; under which government the
island is peaceful and prosperous.
The people want Taft because.
though vigorously urged by President
Roosevelt to accept seat for life
on the bench Of the Supreme Court OF
the United States the most highly
respected judicial body in the wurlc
he remained true to his promise tt
the people of the PHILIPPINES that he
would not leave them until civil gov
eminent was firmly established.
The people want Taft because wher
the need arose. mainly in the interest
of speedy construction OF the Ameri
can Panama Canal. he accepted the
great Office of Secretary of War. ant
by personal visits to Panama. and by
cutting of "red tape. /" by care il
letting contracts and buying supplies
he in pushing the work to expected
completion at considerably earlier dat,
than appeared possible before tn,
work came under his charge.

any railroad stock in roads they pass
upon. And when Senator McLaurin
proposition, Long. again voted the
Wall street idea He also voted
against a law providing that when
railroads introduced evidence in court
that they did not introduce before the
commission, the commission should
new evidence. This was to prevent
the railroads trying one case in the
commission and another in the courts
to gain time. In the anti-pass mat

ment at first Fulton being a notorious
railroad senator just defeated in the
primary in Oregon"
The first vote referred to in this

capital stock or any bonds in any rail-

mon carrier, or using or procuring any
| pass, should be disqualified from pass

Farmers Caught
on Separators

Ida Grove, Ia, March 25.-A great
sensat ion was created here when be-
tween sixty and seventy farmers in
Ida county received notice from the
United States circuit court Of appeals
to the effect that the so-called Econ
omy cream separator they had pur-
chased of Sears, Roebuck & Company
had been declared all infringement
and they were restrained from using
the separator. The farmers who have
received notice have consulted lawyers
as to what they had better do and he
LAWYERS advised them to break up
and sell the old separator as old iron
and then come to town and buy new
ones. The mail order house has been
restrained by the court from manu-
fact uring and selling any more of the
separators, and they were also forced
to bring their book into court and
show to whom they had sold the
machines. The users are now being
not titled that they must not use them.

William Black a Fit Man

AS the day for the primary election
draws nearer each candidate for the
different county and state offices takes
more prominence in the public eye
and receives more Of the public
thought. TO promise honest and i'm
part ial administration of public
Office is as much as Il candidate can
do, and it is all the public can de-
mand from those who solicit it's public
suffrage, so the qualifications Of Il cam
dldate must enter largely into the
considerations of the people when
they choose Il candidate for office.
Tile experience of private life and
business may specially fit a man for
Office, and in Office which has to dO
with the commercial affairs of the
people it may be Il safe criterion that
the man who has prosper0usIy con-
Quoted his private affairs can be
truste with the affairs of the people.
A legislative office may require an eS-
pecial fitness: and beyond peraAvrn-
ture the adWini>l rat ion of he Office
Of sheriff :ur Il large territory requires
something more than commercial
slrewdnesS or business tact. An ac-
uraintance with the habits of law
breakers is one OF the first requisites
of a sheriff. And western Ward c0un-
ty presents citizen to the consider
alton Of the voters Of the county in
the person of VIM. Black. Mr.. Black
has gone out among the people and in
/, manly way sought to interest them
in his claim to their SlIlrages and no
one denies his fitness for the Office of
sheriff. His presence is Il guarantee
of adaptability to such Il poSit ion,
while his frank and deliberate manner
is an assurance Of courage. Mr.. Black
cast his lot in western North Dakota
among the earliest Inhabitants
among the aboriginies we may say,
and is therefore typical western
man: he has grown up with the coun-
try: has had to do with the rough
element of early society, and has
learned how to be a sheriff Palermo
Standard.
