despite his four years as mayor OF
Philadelphia. However. his long and
hard gubernatorial campaign gave him
greater confidence in himself. and to
day he makes a strong and powerful
public address. But he never attempts
even u short address without first re-.
ferring to the fact that he is not an
orator, and thus prepares his audi.
ence for a surprise. The other day.

The Popular Vote.

Perhaps n few figures concerning the

interesting. Much has been heard of
Mr.. RpoSevcit'S wonderful majority.
but an analysis of the figures show that
Mr.. ltopscvclt's increase over the Nc
Kinley volt hardly makes good the nat
ural increase in the voting strength of

ccivcd 7,207, 923 votes. In 1904 Roosc.
welt received 1924, IS0. or IIG. 80 more

ell G.3jS, 1873 votes. In 1904 Parker re-.
ceivcd 2,0S2, iJl, or l,275,S20, fewer
votes than Bryan received four years
before. Rooscvclt's excess ovcr Nc.
Kinlcy was only 32t per ZEN of the
loss sustained 10y Parker. If these
figures mean anything at all they mean
that RooscvcltS majority was due To

Preseryips The West.

The attitude of the government is
very clearly to husband the of
the West for the little fellow. ; i'll
place of giving it over to the large
interests. The day Of the vast cattle
range is rapidly passing. aud in its
place is the regulation of land allot-
mcnts To meet the possibilities Of set
tiers. This has caused no small amount
of contention on the part of the vested
interests and it has perhaps drawn
some powerful influence from PreSi-
dent Rooscvelt's support. The prcSi-
dent, however. has gone ON record lis
standing for the family, irrespective of
the grief that is caused To rest on the
shoulders of the great cattle kings and
lumber companies.
In the East. where the country is
more thickly settled, every acre of land
is accounted for, and is figured us i'm
asset i'll some oody's account This is
right and proper. 1t is also exactly rs
right and fully rs proper that an acre
land in the West is an acre still, and
must either have some value or bc
worth nothing. That it has intrinsic
worth is shown by the rapid advances
in western land. Five or six years
ago, land that had been allotted to the
railway in the early days was selling
for 81 to 81 an acre. 1t has since gone
mp to $40 to $50 an acre and where
cultivation has been cared for. this land
has advanced far beyond this figure.
While irrigation has been the key
that has unlocked hundreds of mil.
lions of agricultural wealth. and this
very year. certain branches OF western
farming have progressed without ir-
rigation, and cven cultivated dry farms
sell all the way from 800 to 5000 III
acre. Where water is on the land, the
prices sometimes go rs high rs 81, 800
an acre for producing fruit land.
But this is not being done by mono
poles. This wealth is being added {,

Teachers Agency Attempts Fraud

The teachers agencies have again
shown II disposition to farm out the

that their pathway to profit is not as

sists that she did not max, application
for Nevada schools. and that tncy were
made without her knowledge or consent.

when school should mmcnce and
