Taft Men, Figuring on Success
Have Selected Men for
Committees.
WARNER TO NOTIFY TAFT,
HE is PAST COMMANDER OF THE
G. A. r. AND 1T is THOUGHT BY
HIS SELECTION DARK CLOUDS
WILL ROLL AWAY.

Chicago, June 15-It was announced
at the Taft headquarters Sunday that
United States Senator William Warn
err of Missouri will be chosen chair
man of the convention committee to
make notification to the presidential
nominee of his selection by the con-
vention, that Ex-Governor John F.
Hill of Maine would be preferred &c
head the convention committee on. per-
manent organization and that United
States Senator Charles w. Fulton, of
Oregon, was being most favorably con-
sidered for the craftsmanship of the
credentials committee. These selec-
tons depend, of course, on the sue
cess of the plan Of the Taft forces to
organize the convention, and are re-
garded as indicating the confidence
| felt in that quarter that their strength
predominates.
The selection of Senator Warner to
| head the notification committee is re-
| garded as of more than passing polit-
| ical Importance The senator is past
commander in chief of the Grand
saw service throughout the civil war
| and represents doubtful state. Sen
ator Warner is a close personal friend
and admirer of the secretary of war
and should the convention fulfill the
ambition of that official the address
apprising him of that fact would un
| doubtedly contain expressions intend
ed to clear the atmosphere of any Sug
gestion of clouds which may have
been in the horizon since the seCre
tary's Memorial address at Grants
tomb in New York.
Ordinarily this appointment would
go to the permanent chairman of the
convention. Senator Lodge of Mas
sachusetts. is slated for this honor, but
because of a contemplated visit &c
Europe, will be unable to accommo-
date himself to the demands of the
notification committee.
! The intended compliment to Gov
ernor Hill emphasizes the apprecia
ton felt toward what is regarded as
| an original Taft state. Mr.. Hills work
| during the contest hearings by the ma
tional committee was earnest, and his
bearing and personality is said to have
gained for him many friends. His abil
ity to head the important COMMITTEES
on permanent organization is conced
ed.
The credentials committee chair
manship is matter requiring and re
ceiving most careful consideration.
Senator Fulton is not only familiar
with each of the contested cases be
fore the national committee, but ht
heads delegation which comes to The
convention without a contest. Be-
sides this, his appointment would b
extending to the Northwest one of The
compliments of the convention.

Hnrds Praying.

This story is told by a clergyman of
North Carolina: IAN old colored man
stole a pig and after getting home with
the animal knelt to pray before re-
firing. His wife heard him praying to
the Lord to forgive him for stealing
the pig. She went to sleep with Uncle
Eph still praying. Later in the night
she woke up and saw her husband still
kneeling in prayer. At daybreak his
supplications had not ceased. 'Eph,

The Australian Blacks

1t is believed by many persons that
the blacks in Australia are dying out.
AS a matter of fact, says correspond
ent Of the London Standard, no such
thing Is happening. The belief. how
ever, is easily explained. AS civiliza-
ton advances, and it is yearly advanc-
ing, the blacks recede farther and far
Their into the back blocks and unknown
country save a few who have acquired
the craving for opium or drink. These
latter succumb amid the advancing
wave of civilization and seldom leave
any children. Those who have passed
inland, if they do not increase. have
certainly not decreased. In some few
cases whole tribes have died out when
civilization has reached them, but
these have usually been small tribes.

BIG CUBAN ELECTION TO
BE HELD NEXT SATURDAY
American Troops Will Be Withdrawn
January %, Ahead of the Time
Originally Set-Islanders
Enthused

HAVANA, Nov. S.-Next Saturday
elections will be held throughout the
island for president, vice president,
senators and representatives in con-
gress, to whom, according to the pres
ent program, will be committed the
fate of the restored Cuban republic on
the date of withdrawal on January 2S.
The American troops will be withdrawn
on that day, three days in advance of
the time originally set, in order that
their departure may mark the anni-
versary of the birth of Jose Martt, the
Cuban patriot.
Preparations for the election are COM
plete, and the whole island is absorbed
in the outcome of the struggle. The
conservatives are headed by Gen. Mario
Menocal, and DR.. Rafael Montero, as
presidential and vice presidential can
didates, while Gen. Jose M. Gomez and
his former bitter rival in the party
leadership, Alfredo Zayas, are the nom
inees of the liberal party, the Miguel
ista and Zayasta factions, Both lead
ers have given absolute assurance that
they will accept loyalty the result of
the popular verdict.
There is practically no difference in
the platforms of the two parties, both
having as their chief planks the preser-
walton of the republic, equal rights for
all citizens, the encouragement of agri-
culture, commerce and the maintenance
of friendly relations with the United
States.
The struggle is frankly for the pos
session of the government and control
of public patronage.

AVIATOR SAYS MAILS
WILL GO BY AIR ROUTE
IN TWENTY YEARS FEAT WILL
BE POSSIBLE
Aeronaut Wild, However, Declares 1t
Will Be Five Decades Before
Passengers VIII Be Car
ried Aerially

"Twenty years from now you will
see the mails carried across the con-
tinent by an aerial route" asserts
l.orace Wild, one of the famous aero
nauts who is here to start in the tran
continental balloon race.
"And passengers also?'
mo, 1 don't think So" said Mr.. Wild.
"That may seem strange to most peo-
pie, but no one who has taken an aer-
ial trip will fail to see the big difference.
Not everyone is able to take balloon
voyage, and L think it will be fifty
wears before conditions will be per-
fected generally for passenger traffic In
the air. But 1t will be possible to make
15O miles an hour with mail carrying
craft that will require but few men
perhaps but one or two-and that will
be a great factor In bringing Los An
geles and other coast cities in close
touch with the eastern country.
"a curious thing about an air voy-
age Is that you do not realize how
fast YOU are gong when you get UP
some distance. You are unable to
Judge the speed by passing objects and
of course have no comparative basis
for estimating speed
Aeronaut Wild has been skimmine
through the air for twelve years and
has never had an accident. He has
made flights from Chicago in the middle
of winter, travelling sixty miles an hour
through a snow storm.
