\ MILINARY OPENING
 MONDAY AND TUESDAY
An Affair of Importance at the Geach
 Store This Week.

Attention is called to the Geach dis play ad on this page this morning, an nouncing a millinery opening Monday and Tuesday. This will be something of an occasion in Tempe as MT. Geach has secured what is undoubtedly the finest display of millinery even seen on this side of the river. In preparing for the opening tomorrow and the next day, MT. Geach has arranged front window that is especially attrac- tive and up to date. In this cOnnec- tion. it might be truly said that MT. Geach has done another thing in his store that emphasizes his modern me thod of doing things in his particular line of business. He appreciates the fact that nothing helps to draw trade better than a neat and attractive store and is striving to gain this end, he has just had installed a splendid system of electric lights that will add i'm mensely to the appearance to the in terior of the store. The old drop lights, so common, have been displaced by artistic fixtures that not only gives a great deal more light, but at the same time add a great deal to the general effectiveness of the display of stock
 The millinery opening as mentioned in the ad, lasts but two days; there fore it will be good policy for those contemplating purchases to call early. It should not be understood by this, however, that only those desiring to make purchases will be welcome at the store; as a matter of fact, MT. Geach wants it distinctly understood that every one will be welcome. whether he or she has any intention of buying or not. He extends a cordial invitation to all to come in and look the millinery display over.

REGULAR MEETING
 OF CAMERON CLUB
The County Candidates Will Be on Hand Tomorrow Evening at the Goodwin Opera House.

The regular weekly meeting of the Cameron republican club was held Friday evening and as usual was well attended. Though young, the club has enjoyed a rapid and highly satisfactory growth and its membership is still on the gain. The meeting Friday even ing was rather an informal one: there was no special inducement in the way of speakers from out of town, but local parties filled in the evening in a man ner that was both pleasing and instruc- tive. They demonstrated beyond a doubt that Tempe does not need to send out of town for republicans who can make a good talk, one that is in teresting and at the same time is full of something worth thinking about

Paul Corbell and Mildred Manley, the two Tempe contestants in The Re publican scholarship contest, were about the busiest young people in Tempe yesterday.

This is d mistake, for any one who is a subscriber, may pay up his subscrip- tion as far in advance as he wishes and thereby help his favored contestant or if he is not a subscriber he may be- come one and by that means help one of the young people to win a valuable prize.

and quickly, turning off his tasks
without fret and friction. Here is an
other point of resemblance to the ac-
tual President of Mexico, who is Sc
rene In stormy political weather, and
at all times does his work rapidly and
effectually.
Unfortunately, the American states
man who has travelled so widely, en-
circling the globe, and seeing many
men and cities, has never, we believe,
visited this country. We say "unfoT
tunately," for knowledge of this
good neighbor of the great northern
republic would be helpful when ques-
tons affecting the two countries came
before the chief executive of the
United States. Former President
Cleveland said, before entering on his
second presidential term, that If he
should ever find time for travel, Mex
leo would be the first country he
would visit, and especially did he wish
to make the personal acquaintance of
President Diaz for whose work of con-
structive craftsmanship he had the
highest admiration. But Mr.. Cleveland
has not yet started on his travels.
In still another way does Mr.. Taft,
the possible ruler Of great nation,
resemble the chief magistrate of this
republic. He is simple and unostenta-
tious in his tastes, manner and hab-
its" Really great men are usually de-
void OF personal vanity and ostenta-
ton of life.
There is much that is simpatico In
the character of Mr.. Taft He is direct,
courteous, and humane. He is the fav-
orite of the Filipinos, is liked in Cuba,
and popular in Panama, And while he
wins good will among all classes of
men, he is a strong man, man of
fixed principles, and of firmly held
policies. We believe him to be just
man, and that he would make an
able president of the United States.

GONE FOREVER.

Somewhere the following has found
the light Of day in printed form. The
point made is good one and the
clipping should be placed upon the
mental bookshelf. 1t reads:
Ten years ago an Allen county,
Kansas, farmer put his initials on a
dollar bill. The next day he went to
the nearest town and spent it with a
merchant. Before the year was out he
got the dollar back. Four times in
six years the dollar came back to
him for produce, and three times he
heard of 1t in the pockets of his neigh
bors. The last time he got it back
was four years ago. He sent it to a
mail order house. He has neven seen
that dollar since, and never will. That
dollar bill will never pay any more
school or road tax for him, will never
build or brighten any of the homes Of
the community. He sent 1t entirely
out of the usefulness to himself and
to his neighbors when he sent it to
the mail order house.

Daily does the Mexican Herald talk
of American politics. The latest at
hand is an appreciation Of War Secre.
tary Taft who is compared with Presi
dent Diaz OF the Republic of Mexico.
Evidently Mr.. Taft is the choice of
the Americans in the great southern
capital as he is almost the unanimous
choice of the state:
1t is interesting to learn of a pos.
sible president of the United States,
William Howard Taft, who will be 81
years old on the 18th of next Septem.
ber-whtch is also President Diaz'
birthday that though he has a "big
sunny SMILE" he "can smile and smile
and yet be In deadly earnest" Mr..
Taft's good humor and quite con-
slant cheerfulness do not indicate
weakness of character. He works, as
most great administrators do, quietly

"cHIsPAZos" IN MEXICAN


Down in the City of Mexico in the
republic of Mexico, an English daily
paper is printed The Mexican Herald
would be a credit to any city Of the
United States. This only goes to
show the progress and branching out
Of the English tongue. Many of the
reporters, nevertheless, are Mexicans
and the matter brought into the Office
is translated by expert translators.
Aside from the news features which
covers the world, by special cor
respondence and the Associated Press,
the Herald takes lively interest in
American politics-American In the
sense of Uncle Sans territory.
Some Of the "chispazos" which ap-
pear on the editorial page of the
Herald follow:
Governor Hughes OF New York has
vetoed a bill making the twelfth day
Of October. Columbus day." a legal
holiday. Perhaps amid the turmoil Of
politics, and struggles with politicians
of the baser sort, the governor
doubts if Columbus did well to discov.
er America.
Mr.. Hisgen of Massachusetts says
he would not accept the presiden cy,
thus declining something he could not
possibly get.
Democratic delegates to Denver's
convention will be warned in time if
they note that the gamblers of that
city have triumphed in the municipal
election. Tammany will take its own
Tiger along with it to the Rocky
Mountain city, and then the local
tiger may meet its match.

France by King Edward is worn In
