his charge about Ohio Standard Oil cases,
yet by all the means at the command OF
the government and the millions of Hearst
and his Wall street allies. they persist in
vicious, unwarranted and untruthful attacks
on me. Personally 1 welcome their attack
and shall meet it with all the vigor at my
command. / shall treat them all as private
law which they merit.
I'm this | know l shall have the aid of
my neighbors at home for all proper pur-
poses; but my time must be free from other
demands here. Again my heart is full of
hope for the election of Bryan and Kern.
Honest government and rule by the people
is the stake. Important beyond the polls
in the last generation is the pending con-
test. l would not for one moment consider
remaining in any way connected with the
committee, therefore, 1 hereby tender my
resignation as treasurer of the democratic
national committee, that not the slightest
contest of my own could in any way be
used by the president to cloud the sky and

real issues and laying bare the republican
duplicity to the people. Sincerely yours,

Haskell Answers Questions.
When Mr.. Haskell arrived in Chicago at
o'clock tonight he declared he had not
then resigned and that Mr.. Bryan had
not asked him to resign. Speaking to a
crowd of reporters, he said: IF you have
any questions to ask, put them on paper
He then went from the station to the
democratic headquarters at the Auditorium
annex. When a list of questions was
handed him he retired to his room, saying
he would give out the answers later. In
his room he was closeted for a long time
with National committeeman Martin ].

FUND TO FINISH AUDITORIUM
Enough Money with Cudahy Five
Hundred to Complete Building.
START IN RIGHT AFTER TAFT DAY
Pure Food show Early in November
VIII Find the Large Structure
Done, If Present Plans
Carry.

Immediately after the Taft meeting at
the Auditorium next Thursday night the
general contractor will put a large force
of men to work on the big structure and
force it to a speedy completion, The cor
nice men are already at work, but the
general contractor and the plasterers have
been holding back because of the Taft
meeting.
The directors are now confident they will
have sufficient funds for the completion
OF the building. according to the original
plans and specifications. When the cam
paign for funds was recently made for the
completion of the building it was estimated
that enough money was raised for every
thing except the pillars.
The Cudahy Packing company has taken
500 worth of bonds for the completion of
the Auditorium and 1t is now thought some
of the other packers also will come in,
which insure enough money to finish with.
The date Of the Pure Food show this year
is November 4, and It will be held at the
Auditorium for ten days. Manager Gillian
expects to have the building completed by
that time. Every indication now points to
the most successful show ever given in
Omaha. This is because OF the added in
terest OF some of the larger business con-
Germs. and especially the packing houses,

See the great reform republican! He had
done nothing or thought nothing about
publicity until I stirred him up
Now that the Foraker imbroglio has come
to a head, which eliminates the Ohio SEN
ator from consideration, the democrats have
been congratulating themselves because
they thought MIR. Taft was caught in a
mess. But again the lettes turns up. More
than a year ago, when there was nothing
against Senator Foraker except his deser-
ton of the administration upon certain
measures, and when Senator Foraker was
still strong in Ohio, Mr.. Taft refused to
consider a joint Endorsement OF himself
for the presidency and Foraker for the SEN
atorship. He could not be Joined with SEN
atqr Foraker. 1t was a matter of principle
with him, deaTer than the hope of the
presidency. to stand by the policies of the
administrator and to decline a compromise
with the enemies of those policies. The
punch" is in that letter which now clears
Mr.. Taft of any faint of Forakerism.
These incidents show clearer than could
much eulogy Mr.. Tafts fitness for the
presidency. The things he does are done
from conscientious motives and done
promptly, and are not to he undone for the
exigencies of a campaign. The American
people must warm toward a character like
that, especially when it is coupled with a
fine and generous disposition which debars
him from a bullying attitude toward his
subordinates or interiors.

After giving an affirmative reply to

William II. Taft, when the record is made
up, will probably stand out as one of the
great men of American politics. One rea-
son for this prophecy is that he does not
do all his good work on the top of a
house.
Not a demonstrative fighter, Mr.. Taft
is one of those who is always there with
the punch" at the critical moment. About
the time of the national conventions, II
will be recalled, Mr.. Bryan wired Mr.
Taft in great heat, calling upon him, as
the leading candidate Of his party for the
nomination, to make an agreement for pub
licity in campaign contributions There
upon Mr.. Taft wired back TO Mr.. Bryan a
copy of a letter he had written Senator
Burrows in April, strongly indorsing d
publicity bill. Mr.. Bryan's evident hope
was that Mr.. Taft was unprepared for his
appeal, and that he would be able to say

ScOOt!

Scoot is dead. AS near as the re-
porter is able to get at it his feline
majesty departed this life early this
week. It is thought that Scoot met
with foul play for he was in the best of
health and in full possession Of his
faculties when we last saw him. Billy
Taylor has the matter up before Squire
Sutmar and it will be probed to the
very basement of the big Klein &
Sutmar store. 1t is said that Janitor
Libby knows considerable more about
Scoot than he is willing to admit.
Scoot has held down the K. & S. corner
now for nigh onto nineteen years. In
his earlier days no cat ventured on the
premises without the proper passport,
and he was in turn petted and Dragged
of by the whole push-from Klein to
Sol. Hunter. Little is known of his
antecedents. Billy can only vouch that
he came of a splendid family and can
trace his ancestry on his fathers side
only back as far as the time of the
Indian Mutiny. Scoot's dad was taken
into captivity in 1837-hence it is
not to be wondered at that he was
so highly domesticated. Billy has
written an epitaph on brown wrapping
paper and will have it properly in
scribed over the remains of Scoot when
he finds them. Here it is:
Here lies old Scoot,
Who got the boot,
In nineteen hundred eight.
The K. & S.
Has one friend less,
Since Scootie met his fate.

Contract for New Well.

The North Dakota Artesian Well Co.
has closed a contract with the city of
Glendale for II inch artesian well,
work to commence within twenty days.
The well is put in for additional fire
protection.
The old artesian well at Glendale,
which was the best artesian we'll in the
state when it was drilled, twenty years
ago, has proved to be insufficient to
meet the present requirements, both
for domestic use and fire protection.
Glendale has grown to be quite a city
since the first well was drilled and the
protection and advertising this well has
afforded our county seat should receive
some credit for its substantial growth.
