V0RYS C0NSULTS TAFT

Doubtful.
V0RYS C0NSULTS TAFT

Hot Springs, Va, July 16.-SenatoT
Jonathan Bourne, irs OF Oregon, the
Simon pure third.term boomer, is com
ing here to confer with Mr. Taft Ap.
pf rently he is reconcilcd 10 the loss OF
Roosevelt and is, perhaps, ready now Ia
hop aboard the band wagon. Judging
from a recent published interview with
him, however, he may have another pur'
pose in visiting the Republican candi-
date, and that is TO get him to save
the country from the dangers of "resi'
durary legateeship in the White House.
Senator Bourne will probably see Mr..
Taft the first Of next week.
Arthur |. Voreys, independent mana
ger Of the Taft campaign in Ohio, is
hero stoday conferrlng with the candi'
date. Mr.. Taft had expected to devote
he week exclusively 20 working on his
speech Of acceptance, but there are
some matters conneetd with the Ohio
campaign that could not be longer put
off,
Mr. Voreys before his conference with
Mr.. Taft said:
"This talk Of Ohio being doubtful
because Of Republican factional fights
is without foundation. The state is
safely behind Taft and, in my opinion
there is no doubt about New York.
One Of the questions Vorys is taking
up with Mr.. Taft is the proposed candi.
dncy OF Chairman Theodore +. Burton
TO displace Foraker in the Senate. Bur
ton is warm personal friend Of Mr.
Taft, but before he will subscribe 10 his
candidacy he will have to be convinced
that his own chances in Ohio will not
be ieopardized. That the Burton boom
crs have not succeeded in demonstrating
as yet. although they argue that an
attempt to re-elect Foraker would be
greater milestone to the Taft candi-
dacy than any fractional fight that
might arise between Foraker and Bur
ton. Congressman Burton has not de-
clared his candidacy as yet and will not
unless he is satisfied that Mr.. Taft Is
willing.
Vorys is also taking up with the can
didate plans for the campaign which
Mr. Taft is to carry on in September
and October from the porch of Charles
T. Tafts home in Cincinnati.
Another package of documents arriv
ed Yesterday for use hy Mr.. Taft in the
writing OF his speech of acceptance. Mr.

ties Causes Trip to Mon
treai

New York July 16.--Leslic NJ. Shaw,
former secretary of the treasury, and,
until last spring the president of the
Carnegie Trust company, is back at his
Office after trip TO Montreal, which
Wall street heard was for the purpose
of forming $4oooo,oO0 merger of
Canadian public utilities.
Mr.. Shaw said that the projected
merger remained in "the nebuous
stage and he did not care to discuss
his trip to Montreal
The Montreal merger was first talk
ed of about a year ago, when Mr. Shaw
took up consolidation plan while
president Of the trnst company. 1t was
then proposed to merge the Montreal
Power company and the Montreal
street railway company. The scheme
was dropped after preliminary nego-
tiations had been started and had
been resting until Mr.. Shaw's recent
trip to Canada.

Bar Her Out.

Columbus, Ohio, July 16.--The Ken
lucky delegation, which opened in
Memorial bali here yesterday, has re.
fused to invite Mrs. Alice Roosevelt
Longworth to attend the convention as
Kentucky's honored guest
The reasons the delegation gave for
this action were:
First--That Mrs. Longworth at

and sat beside Ross George B. Cox
of Cincinnati, well krown man
of the world.
Second That she smokes cigar

Without consulting their fellow
members in the delegation, II. w. Davis

more and II. S. d. Wright of Louis
vile have taken it upon themselves to
write to the daughter Of the president
and ask her to grace their convention
OF she had the national convention of
the Republican and Democratic parties.
Not until yesterday did the trio
make known this pleasant little secret
to the delegation as a whole. II was
Mr.. Demaree who informed the MEM
bers of the latter and moved that the
invitation, instead Of coming from three
men only, be extended by all the Pro-
hibition members from the Blue Grass
state.
Promptly and peremptorily the mo-
ton was voted down upon the grounds
already stated.
The letter to Mrs Longworth could
not be withdrawn, of course. She has
not replied to it and it is not known
whether she intends to be present at
the convention, but if she does it will
not be as the guest of Kentucky.

DARK AND COLD.
state House Is Again Having Trouble
With Heating Plant.

The state house is again in darkness
today. There is no heat, and no power.
and the elevators are not running. 1t
is the old, old story. The state heat
ing plant is out of commission.
Some of the old pipes have rusted
out. and it will be several days before
the machinery can be put in shape to
run.
This is what comes from having
political" control of the plant Peo-
pie are put in charge of it who allow
1t to go to pieces, and this is exactly
what has happened in years past Tha
plant has gradually rusted out and
gone to wreck because the people in
charge did not know how to take care
of it and make repairs, or for some
other reason failed to keep the plant up
to its proper state of efficiency
The state executive council recently
had an investigation made of the plant
and it was found that it would cost
over $1,000 to make repairs absolutely
necessary to carry the state through
the winter. The state had no money
available for such repairs, owing to the
policy of the legislature never to trust
the executive council with any surplus
funds. However, the repairs will have
to be made before the plant is ready
for winter. 1t might be a good plan
to allow the legislature to freeze for
one session. After that it might be
easier to get the appropriations neces-
Sary to keep up the state house and its
auxiliary buildings.

This Topeka concern has grown
steadily along the lines of substantial
progress and bids fair to rank with
the biggest manufacturing concerns of
the west. The feat of making high
class autos west of the Mississippi is
worth talking about and Topeka is
proud of the Smith works. The
