the Rock Island branches into It's Texas ana
Colorado divisions, the Governor met one of the
most rousng welcomes of his trip. The Rock
Island shops are strung along the tracks there,
and scores of locomotives and trains were lying
on sidings. Long before the Governors speciai
came up to the station engine whistles snriekeo
a welcome, and grease stained men in overaIis
could be seen running from engine cab and
shop door to be in time 10 hear the New York
Executive
WANTED TO HEAR ONLY HUGHES.
The throng didn't want to hear anybody else
either. One OF the local lights who began to
introduce the Governor was shouted down
quickly, but when Governor Hughes stepped to
the platform of his car the uproar stopped
instantly The Governor devoted most Of his
remarks to showing how disastrous Mr. Bryan's
proposals would be to the workingmen II put
into force.
TITS very simple thing to halt prosperity In
this country" he said. I'VE all together in
everything that pertains to prosperity, and
must in this campaign take counsel of our
best judgment and take such action as will be
for the true interests OF ALL
Following Harrington came Marion, where Mr..
Hughes made rear platform speech to farmer
audience. and from that place the special ran to
this city without stop, although at several sta
tions crowds were gathered, anxious to see and
hear the Governor.
William Allen White Joined the Governors
party at Marion, and came on here. He's real
man." he said after talk with the Governor.
Governor Hughes's visit here turned into
a huge festival by the Republicans. There was
q parade around town with the Governors party
in automobiles, and more rockets, red fire and
shotgun saIutes set of in their honor than would
be expended in q rfotous Fourth Of July ceebra-
ton. There also Sam" Days calliope.
Special trains into the city by all three
railroads and thousands OF visitors came many
miles to the festivities. The Governor spoke in
the Tabernacle, huge wooden structure. which
was not half large enough TO hold the people
who struggled to hear him. When he walked
to the stage the crowd let out yell which
loosened OF the boards in the roof, and
from then punctuated bis address with roars
Of applause. .."

be trusted to stand stOutly against the
two real enemies of our democracy

Grafton, advise the wage worker to do
what l thought was against his inter-

actly as l ask such support from every
far-sighted and right-thinking Ameri-

my heart that no where within the
borders OF our great country can there
be found another man who will as
vigilantly and efficiently as Mr.. Taft
support the rights Of the working man
as he will the rights Of every man who
in good faith, strives to do his duty as
an American citizen. He will protect
the just rights of both rich and poor
and he will war relentlessly against
lawlessness and injustice, whether ex-

On the bench Judge Taft showed the
two qualities which make a great
Judge; wisdom and moral courage
They are also the two qualities which
make a great president.

WISE WOMEN PLAN COSTUMES
DfrectOire Coats and GOred Skirts Will
Prevail This Fall.
Sincerely yours,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

The first need of the autumn for
most women is the tailored suit to re-
place the lightweight wolfe or pongee
that has been on duty all summer. The
new materials are already being
shown, and there are some very at
tractive visions of the worsted fabrics,
The serges and panamas, it goes with
out saying, will predominant.
There are two very decided types of
suit coats that will be worn during
the coming season--the Directoire
model that is favored by certain high
class tailors who follow the lead OF
Paris, and the single-breasted, semi
fitted, semi-long coat that is unQues-
tiOnably one of the most becoming
garments we have ever worn.
The long points on the hips attenu-
ate the figure of the heavily built
woman and the Consulat collar seems
to add to her height. On the slender
woman 1t is quite delightful and very
young looking.
The second coat belongs to the type
that FLUFFY Rufiles has made famous
from one coast to the other. It's lines
are so familiar to US all that 1t is not
necessary to describe them or to dwell
on the obvious good points Of the slim
graceful cut Of the coat.
It has taken many months to settle
the mooted question Of skirts with any
degree Of deflniteness. Paris limita
the plaitied skirt to the trotteur cos
tune, and New York is slowly follow
ing her lead. Every one admitted that
the gored skirt was smart smarter
than the plaited-but the latter wal

THESE Fruit Lands are conceded,
by competent judges and men of
experience, to be unquesti0nably
the best in the entire West for
fruits, early vegetables and melons Of
all kinds.
Here late fr0sts do not occur; the
Spring season comes two to three
weeks earlier than in the lands Of
greater elevation. This early season
enables the fruit, melon or vegetable
grower to put his product on the mar
ket ut a time when he realizes the top
market price, and before competition
interferes with marketing his crop.
This mesa, or cove land, lying as 1t
does on the south bank Of the famous
Snake River, protected from cold and
severe winds in the early Spring by
high, lava bluffs ON both sides Of the
river, makes this possible.
The soil is Of the best, composed Of
q combination of lava, ash and sandy,

This tract Of land is paralleled its

WHAT TAFT'S ELECTION MEANS
GIVES CLOSE VIEW OF THE RE.
PUBLICAN NOMINEE.
Ten Years. Association with Candidate
COnvinces Chief Executive No Better
Fitted Man Ever Asked Peoples Suf-
frages.

Oyster Bay, Sept IA letter writ
ten by the president to Conrad Kohrs,
OF Helena, Mont, an old-time friend,
was made public tonight. The COM
munication, it was explained, was
called forth by William ]. Bryan's
statement that he was the presidents
heir and natural successor. The letter
follows:
Sycamore Hills, Oyster Bay, N Y,
Sept. 19.-My Dear Mr.. Kohrs: l have
received your letter about the candi-
dacy of Mr.. Taft, the man who feel is,
in an especial sense, the representative
of all that in which l most believe in
political life
The last few years have seen a great
awakening of the public conscience
and the growth of stern determine
ton to do away with corruption and
unfair dealing, political, economic, So
cial. 1t is urgently necessary that this
great reform movement should go on.
But no reform movement is healthy If
it goes on by spasms; if 1t is marked
by periods of frenzied advance, fol-
lowed by equally violent periods OF re-
action.
True Friend Of Reform.
The true friend of reform the true
foe of abuses, is the man who steadily
perseveres in fighting wrongs, in war;
ring against abuses, but whose char
acter and training are such that he
never promises what he cannot per-
form, that he always little more than
makes good when he does what he
promises, and who, while steadily adj
vancing, never permits himself to be
led into foolish excuses which would
damage the very cause he champions.
Taft's Qualities.
In Mr.. Taft we have man who COM
bines all of these qualities to a de-
gree which no other man in our public
life, since the Civil war, has surpassed.
To flaming hatred of injustice, to a
scOrn of all that is base and mean, to
a hearty sympathy with the oppressed,
he unites entire disinterestedness
courage, both moral and physical Of
the very highest type and a kindly
generosity OF nature which makes him
feel that all of his fellow countrymen
are in very truth his friends and broth
ers, that their interests are his, and
that all his great qualities are to be
spent with lavish freedom in their
service.
Friend Of Wage Worker.
The honest wage-worker, the honest
farmer, the honest mechanic or small
trader, or man of small means, can
feel that In peculiar sense Mr.. Taft
will be his representative because Of
the very fact that he has the same
scorn for the demagogue that he has
for the corruptionist, and that he
would front threats of personal VIC
lence from mob with the unquailing
and lofty indifference with which he
would front the bitter anger of the
wea1thiest and most powerful corpora
lions. Broad though his sympathies
are, there II In him not the slightest
tinee Of weakness. No consideration
Of personal interest, any more than Of
fear for his personal safety, could
make him swerve . hairs breadth

good for stripes and the one with
groups of plaits for bOrdered goods.
But we have at last realized the
finality of the Partisan mandate,
though 1t is hard to turn directly from
the plated skirt to the gored-the
latter looks bare and untrfmmed to
our uneducated eye. Therefore. there
is a constant demand for trimming
bands, for tucks in the bottom, for but
tons-for anything, in fact, that will
let us down gently to the fored skirt
Some OF the new gored skirts are very
pretty and smart.-The September
