"Now for Prosperity"

New York Herald: In the light of
yesterdays sweeping Republican vic
tory the frantic campaign conducted
by the party managers to the very
close, and in which Mr. Taft was sub
jected to strain that would have
killed less robust candidate, appears
almost laughable. Is Now that
the elections are over the American
people, cheerfully acquiescing in the
results, will buckle down to business
with renewed yigor and the revival of
prosperity will be accelerated. s.
Mr. Taft's views with respect to the
support and extension of the countrys
interests abroad, and particularly in
the far east, promise new stimulus
to our commercial development The
Herald has earnestly commended his
views on this subject and believes
that yesterdays victory was in no
small part due to universal approval
of the foreign policy for which he
stands.

Letter From Belt.

A letter from Belt was read in
which he stated that the directors
did well in reserving Hill, for last
years short stop is anxious to play in
Keokuk again next season. While
keokuk sold Hill to Lincoln that club
failed to reserve him until after the
Keokuk directors did and it may be
possible that we may receive his re-
turn. Belt will be in Keokuk some
time in the near future to complete
his contract for next season and also
to confer with the directors.
A letter was also received from
First Baseman Miller, who is now at
his home in ST. Louis. He has two
good players for the Keokuk team next
year and he is confident that both
will be able to make good One of
them is a pitcher who finished with a
good record in the Texas league two
years ago, and played star ball in the
Trolley league, st. Louis last season
Miller is in excellent shape according
to the letter and will be ready with
the opening of next season.

INV TO APPLY PAINT.

Greatest care should be taken when
painting buildings or implements
which are exposed to the weather. to
have the paint applied properly. No
excellence of material can make up
for carelessness of application, any
more than care in applying it can
make poor paint wear well.
The surface to be painted should be
dry and scraped and sandpap cred
hard and smooth. Pure white lead
should be mixed with pure linseed oil,
fresh for the job. and should be well
brushed out, not flowed on thick
When painting is done in this manner

chance that the job will be satisfac-

Joaquin Miller. the poet OF the Sier-

rarely comes into San Francisco. but
when he does he is made good deal

one of the guests at rather formal
dinner at a friends house where he
stayed overnight. His hostess had
known the poet since her childhood.
SO she felt privileged. next morning, to
discourse to him of the beauties of
the Partisan gown she had worn the
night before-beauties which seemed
to have escaped his observation.
Mr.. Miller listened to all that she
had to say and remained silent.
But didn't you really like the
dress?" pleaded the lady.
WELL" replied the poet. II did like
part of 1t well enough"
The lady frightened.
'Tndeed?" she said. what part?"

the poet: and that ended the discus
