Washington, Juno tS.---Taft, the candidate, received his first ovation here tonight when the University club, of which he was the first pres ident, marched In a body to the Taft home and serenaded the secretary of war. In reply to their expressions of good will Secretary Taft responded as follows:
 My fellow members of the Universi-
 ty Club:
 You don't expect me to make a speech to-nlght-much less political speech, A great honor has fallen up- on me to-day-to lead a great polit ical party In the contest that Is to come. This expression of good fellow ship value greatly, as I deem 1t the expression of good will from my fel- low club members. We are neighbors. l don't regard it as political dem onstraton at all, but merely as the good wishes of my neighbors. It Is one of your number upon whom q great honor has been conferred, and to whom you are here to extend con- gratulatons.

 My friend Davis had an unhappy task in prophesying as a democrat that a republican would be president. But he Is the leading lawyer of the district, and I know he always makes the best of bad case but in this well come of my fellow club members to- night 1t Is not for me to predict who will be the next occupant when the really great occupant of the White House shall have left 1t on the fourth of March.

GRIM MILITIA WAR GAME
Two Citizen-Soldicrs Fatally Injured by
 F'larcback of Big Gun.

New York. June 1s.--A bit of grim realism was thrown Into the war game down at the narrows tonight. when through the premature explosion of a powder charge in slx-inch gun, at Fort Wadsworth on Staten Island three men were seriously injured. two of whom can hardly survive the night.

SLOW TIME MADE BY YALE 0ARSMEN Takes Them 23:14 to Go Over the Four Mile Course,
 Against Harvard's
 21:27.
SHOWING UNSATISFACTORY
Crimson Celebrate Victory Over Yale on the Diamond--Changcs May Be Made In the
 Program.
Special to the JournnI-Courier. ]

Gales Ferry, June lS.--The Yale varsity eight was sent over the four mile course tonight against time for the first time this season The time announced was 23:l4 and was consid- cred unsatisfactory by Yale men. The course was rowed upstream from the drawbridge, the shell being lowed down by the launch from Gales Fer ". It was quite late In the evening when the crew started, the shell leav- ing the drawbridge at 7l5 D. m. Just why the time should be so much slow CT than that made by Harvard We'd nesday night is not quite discernable, although the conditions were scarcely as favorable tonight. There was a fairly strong breeze blowing mp the river which should have helped the shell. but the tide was ebb practieal- ly all the way and this accounted for some of the difference.
 The rowing was at times rather rag ged. too. the men not showing up as they have in their ordinary practice.
 The breeze was quite strong In the more open stretches of the river and 1t Is believed that Coach Kennedy had no especial desire to push the men toe hard on the first trial and with water a trine too rough to be ideal.
 Harvard's launch was a little dist ance behind the Yale eight most of the way up and those on board had q fair opportunity to take the measure of their opponents
 The freshman eight picked up the varsity at the first mile mark and ac. companied the shell to the third mile flag. from which they padded homo easily The freshmen were left be. hind several boat lengths and were pulling in anything but satisfactor! form. The stroke was never raised very high all through the trial, thu highest observed being 32.
 Except the general statement tha the trial was unsatisfactory nothing official was said by Yale's coach oI captain, but to the outside observer | appeared as though both eights had { bad case of the rattles. Tho freshmen at times went off their course and 1t k not all certain that the varsity kep to the proper line all the way. Ina the eyes of the occupants of the Johr Harvard were known to be on then may have had something to do witt the time and form shown and 1t will remain for another time row to dem onstrate whether this Idea Is or Is no corrent. With all the allowance fol tide and less favorable conditions gen erally, the time made tonight by Val, does not compare very well witt Harvard's 21:27 made Wednesday night.
 The men finished in good shape, nt

DEFEATED WILL OF PARTY
London Times Comments on Roosevelt
 Self Abnegation.

London, June 19.-The news of Sec retary Taft's nomination for the presi- dency was too late for editorial com ment in the morning papers with the exception of the Times, which says
 Tt is the greatest and most striking of all Roosevelt's many victories. By the unflnching exerton of his personal will President Roosevelt defeated the undoubted will of the republican par ty, and what is hardly less certain the will of the American people. He has chosen to sacrifice his personal ambi- ton to his sense of duty as citizen It is a noble act of self abnegation worthy of the first magistrate of peo- pie, bred in respect for the law and in yeneration for It's spirit"

They all Favor 1t.

J. H. Lowell as president of the
Payette-Boise Water Users Associa-
ton called meeting of those heving
land under this system including the
residents on the north and south
side of Boise River. The object of
the meeting was to place before them
the proposition now being formulat-
ed for advertising the Payette and
Boise valleys by sendin a car of
products this fall to Illinois, Wis
consin, Iowa, Minnesota, and the
Dakota state fairs, The qeustion of
Dakota state fairs. The question of
assessing the land five cents per acre
in order to raise the amount amor
toned to this district was considered
A number of short, pithy talks were
made favorable to the proposition.
Tickets were issued to all, and
number were sent to those who
could not attend the meeting, so that
tn real sentiment of the people Iiv-
Ing in the district might be obtained
1t was the sentiment of those present
that it was the best and cheapest
means of advertising that had been
presented. One enthusiastic speaker
said that he had visited % states
looking for a suitable location and
that he believed that this was the
best country under the sun that while
his land was not for sale yet he
would cheerfully contribute his as
sessment for the purpose of letting
others know about the country.

Market Day.

Caldwell's Market Day was a sue
cess from every point of view. The
cash sales amounted to more than
$4,000, besides several hundred dol
lars worth were sold by the owners
after they were released by the COM
mittee, when it was found impossible
owing to the lateness of the hour to
dispose of the articles. The attend
ance of farmers and buyers was lar
ger than at any of the previous sales
days, showing conclusively that all
that is necessary is to advertise them
and get the people acquainted with
the methods. What is Weiser going
to do in the matter of a Market Day?
What is the committee appointed by
the Commercial Club doing? Are we
going to sit down and see our neigh
bors drawing big crowds to their cit
les, their merchants and hotels doing
a big business on those days? Let
us be up and dong.-Weiser Ameri-
can.
