Turkey has brought the military and naval branches of the governments to high pitch of excitement and to divert the attention of the whole people from their internal quarres and local agitatons Troops being rapidly mobzed along the border The sudden energy displayed by the government has created sensation and St. Petersburg full of the life and color incident to a military campaign Martial music and the measured
 tramp of moving troops again heard in the days of the Japanese war But the movement against Turkey is much popular and has the sympathy of the people, because of the eas of the enemy and the familiarity of the peasany with the outrage committed from which they themselves have suffered.

loss to the country resulting from the
killing of Notwithstanding birds. and
from our further neglect to intelli-
gently protect and foster those winged
scavengers Of the air. put the gross
sum at ssO0,0OO.OOO per year. We do
not know upon what facts or what
basis Of computation this enormous
total Is reached; but II II is one-tenth
part true IT is a startling showing. The
proposition Of the federal government
to set aside bird reservations and
breeding grounds where our feathered
friends might be protected in life. lib
erty and the pursuit Of happiness
seems to rest upon sound economical
grounds. It is a measure of safety for
ourselves as well as for the birds.

ROOSEVELT PROCLAIMS
TAFT AS HIS ONLY
CHOICE.

The true friend of reform, the
true foe Of abuses, Is the man
who steadily perseveres in right
ing wrongs, in warning against
abuses, but whose character and
training are such that he never
promises what he cannot per-
form, that he always a little
more than makes good what he
does promise, and that, while
steadily advancing, he never per-
mits himself to be led into foolish
excuses which would damage the
very cause he champions. In Mr..
Taft we have a man who COM
bines all of these qualities to a
degree which no other man in
our public life since the Civil
War has surpassed.
There is no fight for decency
and fair dealing which I have
waged in which 1 have not had
his heartiest and most effective
sympathy and support, and the
policies for which stand are his
policies as much as mine.
If there Is one body of men
more than another whose support
1 feel 1 have right to challenge
on behalf of Secretary Taft it is
the body Of wageworkers of the
country. A stancher friend, a
fairer and truer representative,
they cannot find within the Dor
ders of the United States. He
will do everything in his power
for them except to do that which
is wrong; he will do wrong for
no man, and therefore can be
trusted by all men.

A CoMBATIvE ALTRUIsT.
Mr.. Taft Has Fought Hard Battles
and Won Victories for Peace.


and Won Victories for Peace.
The character of Mr.. Taft is the
resultant of strongly contrasting forces
He is a man who laughs and fights.
From his boyhood, good nature and
good humor have been traits which al
ways received notice first. But all the
time he has been capable OF splendid
wrath, which now and then has blazed
out, under righteous provocation, to
the utter CONSERVATION and undoing of
its object. Because he is always ready
to laugh, and has a great roar of en-
joyment to signify his appreciation of
the humorous, men who have not OBJ
served him closely have often failed to
understand that he is just as ready to
fight, with energy and determination,
for any cause that has won his sup
port. But it is almost always some
other mans cause which enlists him.
His battles have been in other interests
than his own. First of all he is an al
TRUST, and then a fighter.
