Mr.. TAFT DOES THINGS.
One Incident That Shows the Quality
of the Man.

One Incident That Shows the Quality
of the Man.
This Incident affords perhaps as good
an insight into the psychology of Mr..
Taft as any that could be cited. 1t H.
Illustrates the way Mr.. Taft does things.
the way he works and the way he
plays, for when he plays he plays as
hard and zestfully as he works. With
him the thing is to do it. Accomplish
ment is ever his aim. 1t happened
while Mr.. Taft was on the sea. bound
for Manila to open the Philippine as
sembly. The narrator watched the pro-
ceedings at close range. Three men
stood between decks on the steamship,
away up in the eyes Of the ship, and
contemplated a hole ten feet above
their heads. A narrow iron ladder led
perpendicularly to the deck. The cir
conference Of the hole seemed to ap-
proximate that of sugar barrel. One
of the men, Ambassador O'Brien,
bound for Tokyo, was tall and spare.
Thomas Burke of Seattle, was short
and rotund. The third, Mr.. Taft, was
larger and heavier than the other two
put together.
at would be easier for the camel to
go through the needles eye, Mr.. Sec
rotary, than for you to get through
that hole" bantered Judge Burke.
81 wouldn't like to try that climb,
I'll confess said the ambassador
"Well, l don't know" rejoined the
$50 pound secretary of war. 1T looks
like tough proposition"
For a moment the three turned aside
to examine something to which their
attention was directed. Unregarded.
Mr.. Taft stepped to the foot of the lad
der and observed it contemplativey.
One might have deduced from his man
ner that his thoughts ran something
like this: ''That's a hard climb, and
that hole looks smaller than my body,
but those fellows don't believe that
can climb up that ladder and get
through the hole. l believe I can. I'm
going to try it."
Before he was spied Mr.. Taft had
half scaled the ladder. Ambassador
OBrien and Judge Burke, despite
their lesser weight, expressed in their
faces an approximation Of dismay
when they saw what the secretary was
about. You'll never make 1t; better
come back" advised the ambassador.
Look out the ladder doesn't break"
cautioned Judge Burke. Round after
round the secretary progressed until
his body was halfway out Of the hole.
When the circumference of his girth
came into conjunction with the cir
conference of the hole it was toss
up for a minute which would win. But
Mr.. Taft proved that he had an elastic
waist line, Which won over the I'M
yielding limits Of the hole. But it was
struggle. He stuck to it grimly and
doggedly. The lifting Of 2S5 pounds
of dead weight by the muscles of the
arms is a task that would tax the
strength of far lighter man. A final
heave and Mr.. Taft hoped upon the

Democracy Divided.

Thomas L. Hisgen, Hearst candidate
for the presidency, looks for the cleo
ton of Taft and then a new align
ment of political parties. Mr.. Hisgen
says:
1.-THE Democratic party is dividing.
The radical and the more conservative
elements can pull together only lit
tie while longer. After Bryan is de-
feated for a third time there is bouLl
to be a new alignment Of the people,
and the Democratic party will disin-
tegrate. The Republicans will get some
Of those former Democrats, and the
Independence league will get more Of
them. The campaign of 1912 will be
fought out by a different set of po-
litical parties from those now in the
field"

NEGRO AND DEMOCRACY.
Would Be Suicidal For Colored Men to
Vote For Bryan.

Vote For Bryan.
country has known, leader Of his
race and the honored confdant OF
President Grant and Secretary Fish,
recently said: '<It would be suicidal
for colored men to vote for Bryan.
They have nothing to hope for from
the Democratic party, which has dis
franchised them in the south and
which processes to regard them as
unfit for the ballot anywhere. The
only chance for the negro is with the
Republican party, and it will be a sad
day for the negro when a Republican
president will be elected without the
votes of negroes having helped to
place him in power"
In view of the fact that Bryan him
self has approved negro disfranchise-
ment in the south there can be no
doubt of his attitude should he be
elected to the presidency, while the
southern Democrats would regard
northern negro votes for their candi-
dates as an Endorsement by the negro
race of southern treatment Of the ne
gro.
1t is impossible to believe that any
negro who has studied intelligently the
history Of his race will go into the
voting booth and cast ballot in favor
Of Bryan and against Taft and Sher-
man, the Republican candidates-the
candidates of the party which opened
the door of hope to the colored man.

Bryan's great handicap in running
for the presidency is that he cannot

DAY OF ATONEMENT,
Celebration Of Yom Kippur Begins at
Sunset Tonight.

New York, Oct. 5.-The celebra
ton of Yom Kippur, the Day oil
Atonement, by the Hebrew communi.
ty the world over begins at sunset
this evening, and will continue un-
til sunset tomorrow evening. The
day is one of the most important in
the Jewish calendar, and the one
most generally observed by the He
brews. It is the 10th day of the
month of Tishri, the first month of
the new year, and marks the end of
the penitential period which began
with the celebration of Rosh Hash
anah.
The ceremonies ushering in Yom
Kippus are especially solemn and i'm
pressive, and the synagogues-both
the permanent establishments and
those that have been temporarily
prepared for the holy day services
are always thronged with devout
" orshippers. While the reform Jews
have to very great extent expunged
the fasting from their observances Of
the day, yet they unite with their
orthodox brethren in the other fea-
lures of the celebration.

night, when Hon. James H. Brady,
the Republican nominee for COVER

one that gives credit to the asser.
ton. An administration with James

BRADY AS HE IS.

The campaign tour of James H.
Brady in the northern part of the
state has been that of man who
appeals to the people with an appre-
ciat!ve sense of his abilities. They
know that he has made a success OF
his work during his residence in
Idaho, and not only in private but in
public life he bears the marks of a
successful man. He is the soul OF
genia'ity and carries enough of the
fund of good humor to be an opti-
mist of the stripe that makes Wes.-
ern state. county, a municipality
o. establishes camp on the desert,
for he has faith in the country and
will take his chance with any part
o. 1t. He is a character that accom-
plishes things for either his state or
his community, and he is loyal even
unto the dog of his friend-provid-
ing his friend is loyal. Brady sell
dom minces matters. II he has a
friend, he ties to him. II he as an
enemy, he fights him according to
the methods promoted by the opposi
ton. He will use willing tool or
grant favor, for he goes on the
theory of taking men as he finds
them, either politically or personally,
and he places the greatest value in
the world on Intelligence or keen
ness. He never operates on the the
ory OF beating any Individual only in
fair game, and that process is gen.
orally observed by any fairminded
Individual on earth. Brady is an as
tute business man, a promoter, q
good citizen. booster, and makes a
success OF his enterprises and makes
good in any other line. No man who
accomplishes these things can help
having few enemies. But that in
dividual who successfully carries out
al enterprise in which his people are
Interested is safe citizen to tie to.
He can be depended on, for his work
is good
He Is white man, possess ng the
same qualities, the same instincts.
the same feelings, hopes. fears and
ambitions that the Creator gave to
an OF us.
He has made use of his intelli-
gence and has achieved the reward
OF success. He has not abused the
inspiration and faculties given to all
men.
Brady is builder and OF tho
stripe that will go down on future
pages as one of the builders OF the
state. for he is a builder either on
the industrial, commercial, social,
political or moral plane.
He is a permanent storage battery
Of common human accomplishment.
