TAFT AND TIE TABLE,.

Somebody should make it his bust
ness continually to jog the memory
of Secretary Taft. In a speech which
the genial and obese secretary de
liyered at Bath, Me, September 5,
1906, he declared that in his opinion
changes in business conditions had
made it wise and just to revise the
schedules OF the, existing tariff"
What has transpired during the
past sixteen months to persuade Mr..
Taft that tariff revision is not Just
as wise now as then? In the fall
of 1906 public sentiment In favor of
immediate revision was not nearly so
powerful as it is today. And more
than this during the interim the
country has stood face to face with
convincing evidence of the desirable
ity of depriving the great monopo-
lies of one of the sources of their
tremendous power-a tariff which pro-
rects them but which is of no earth
ly benefit, but rather a distinct in
jury, to the people.
Mr. Taft has indicated during the
past few months that he is thinking
first of the welfare of his party. and
second of the vital subject of reform
in the tariff. He has but recently re
turned from trip through foreign
lands. and during his absence many
things have happened to convince an
intelligent and reasonable partisan
that the success of the republicans
this year hinges upon the declaration
of the party platform on the subject
of revision.
If Mr. Taft really wants to do his
organization service he win come
out unequivocally for tariff revision
at the earliest possible date. The
people generally demand it, and party
lines are becoming so dim that il
will be comparatively easy for thous-
ands Of republicans to cross over In
to the field occupied by the democra-
cy. Mr.. Taft's nomination appears to
be foregone conclusion, but his
nomination does not mean that he
will be elected, by any manner Of
means.--Los Angeles Herald

According to official statement Co.
The Somerset reporter., 1908-07-23
Fortunate Aroostook.

Aroostook county has been favored
with unusually good weather for
farming SO far this season, and the
farmers are we'll pleased with the
prospects. There has beer just
enough rain to help the crops along
and keep them IN good condition.
The longest spell of dry weather was
during the past week, and that was
broken by good fall of rain Monday
night. This dry weather did not eff
feet the crops, however. The farmers
in that section are now making hay,
and in most places it looks unusually
good. If good weather reigns here
during the next few days, there
should be large and excellent crop.
1t will compare favorably with that of
any years past, and certainly will be
far ahead of the 1907 crop. Last year
this section was visited by many
showers, and as a result the crop of
hay was very poor. The gardens are
looking good, and the short spell of
dry weather last week had little or no
effect on them. There is every rea-
son to expect a good crop of vege-
tables this fall. On the whole, the
farmers, and business men of Aroos-
took county are feeling pretty good
over the outlook for crops and for a
prosperous business this fall.
