MISSOURI is
SOLID FOR TAFT

St Louis, Feb. missouri Re
publican leaders are gathering in st.
Louis today in advance Of the state

ing Taft resolution;
BE it resolved by the Republican

sentiment of the Republicans Of Mis-
souri, is practically unanimous in ia
vor OF William II, Taft as the can

mittec declares its belief that the Re
publican electors OF the state have
absolute confidence in the patriot
ism, high character and pre-eminent
abilities Of Mr.. TAFT, and believe that
in his character, his learning and eX-
perience as a judge and as an exec
utivc officer, and in all the affairs
of life, William II, Taft has un-
equalled strength as a candidate and
possesses in the highest degree the
qualities that must be possessed by
a Republican president
Resolved, That this committee
feels confident that the nomination
Of William H. TAFT would unite and
strengthen the Republican party in
Missouri more than could the nom
nation Of any other person suggested
as a candidate, and with that belief
we feel It to be our duty to so ex-
press ourselves as to center on him
the sympathy and support of the Re

CHAUT AUQUA PLANS
ARE TAKING FORM

Although contracts have not yet
been signed for attractions which
will make up the lecture and enter
tainment course at the Chautauqua
and training school next summer,
plans are well enough along to in
sure that the visitors and the citi-
2cns of Amarillo will get offerings
that would attract attention any
where in the country, In the con
ferences which superintendent Foster
and other citizens have had over the
proposed course and over the offers
made by Messrs Murphy and War
nicke, of the proposed bureau which
will have its headquarters here, the
needs and limitations Of the course
for next summer have been pretty
thoroughly reviewed.
Instead of having the attractions
OF the lecture course follow each
other every day for ten days or two
weeks as was at first proposed by the
bureau men, the course will be ar
ranged so that the larger attractions
of the course will be placed at CON
venient intervals all through the
eight weeks of the summer school.
There will be an attraction OF some
kind, musical or literary, practically
every day during the Chautauqua
but the more important events will
be given in different weeks.
