from the Mexican artillery. When
President Taft alighted from his car

REBUKEs POLITICIANS.
Taft Makes Pointed Rejoinder on Sub
jeCt of Statehood.

| Albuquerque, N. M, Oct. 16.-In the
| closing minutes of the banquet which
| was rendered to him here last night
President Taft took occasion to rebuke
some local speakers who had made
some rather testy remarks on the sub
! ject of statehood. They had expressed
some doubt if the Republican party
really was going to grant statehood to
New Mexico and Arizona despite the
earnest declarations the president had
made on that subject in an earlier
speech here during the afternoon. They
had argued and harangued for two
hours while the president sat patiently
listening. Then he arose and declared
that he was like a Judge he once knew
who, at the end of a long argument by
counsel remarked:
Mr.. Wolfe, in spite of your argu-
ment 1 am still with you.''
A. B. Fall, former attorney general
of the territory, was one of the speak
ers. He said New Mexico might pos
sibly' be admitted now that the Re-
publican party had entered into a CON
tract on the subject
For" he asserted in ringing notes,
IF the party had not agreed to admit
US to the Union, the Gompers anti
injunction plank would surely have
been written into the platform"
The president answered this sharply.
Lest 1T may go down without con-
tradtction," he said, 81 want to say
there was never any chance of the
passage of what Mr.. GomperS request
ed in the Republican convention. The
resolution that I wanted passed on the
subject of injunctions was defeated,
and resolution milder in form was
put in. That is history and I don't
want history to be recorded other than
we understood it to be-
Mr.. Fall said the people of Arizona
were fools" not to come in under a
joint statehood act when they had A
chance. He also spoke of the right OF
New Mexico to statehood
1T is a right when it is accorded
you,'' said the president, "and it is not
right until 1t is accorded you.
1.-The gentleman across the table used
the term possible as if he still sus-
poets my sincerity and good will. Well, |
of course, a man can not do any more
than promise and then try and carry |!
1t out do think that you may have /
had in times past reason to complain |
because of promises made that were
not fulfilled. do not know 1 am not |
sufficiently versed in the history and |
therefore perhaps you have a right to |
dlstrust me; but heretofore 1 have tried |
to tell the truth, tried to carry out |
such promises as have made"

BEST OF ALL GOVERNMENTS
Is What President Diaz Calls the
United States.

al Paso. Tex, Oct. 16.-Just after
President Diaz crossed the inter
national border he was asked by the
of the Associated Press
who accompanied him in his special
train from Mexico City, to state his
Impressions of Americans and the
United States. He said:
1.-THE high and we'll understood cltl-
zenship of this virile people, who have
succeeded in interpreting the PROPOSE

the Immortal Washington and his
INDUSTRIOUS compatriots. has made

Will Brides Wear Red?

The Red Bride is the rage of Paris.
The Countess de Rezeny, one Of the
prettiest and most popular of the
young royalist set in the French capi-
tai, was married in red-in a bridal
gown of red, with red veil, red gloves,
red shoes, red lingerie, red stockings.
Red, red, red, everything red, and the
daring of the Countess and her four
bridesmaids, who also wore startling
red costumes, has started a fashion
which may drive white satin and
white wells forever from the altar and
substitute American Beauty roses for
orange blossoms.
Perhaps never before has a revolu-
tionary movement in fashion created
such a sensation or caused such a stir,
says the Chicago Tribune. Red-the
color Of revolution-was successful in
this revolt against the seemingly abb
solute reign of white. Society gasped
when it was announced that the Coun-
tess would wear red at the altar; yet
came, saw, and was converted, and
red has already become the rage.
Already in England, conservative
England, brides and bridesmaids have
compromised with the French fad and
are wearing red garlands instead of
orange blossoms, and at the winter
weddings the holly berry will replace
the orange wreath. Perhaps next
year the English will surrender to the
French fashion, and the makers Of
fashion the world over declare that
red has come to stay and will super
sede white entirely as the color for
bridal gowns.
Already it is said preparations are
being made in Paris for almost a
score of red weddings during the
early winter. Some of the trousseaus
that are being made at the great
Paris shops are being changed from
the conventional white to the red6est
and most brilliant red that can be OBJ
tanned. Most of the brides who thus
darefto follow the fashion set by the
Countess are %brunettes. But one
wedding which is expected to be BIZ
zarre beyond measure is that Of a
beautiful blonde, whose, creamy skin
and red bronze hair will form a
strange harmony with the general
color scheme.-New York World.

A Youthful Adnlirer.

Miss Ethel Barrymore's marriage
has not affected her popularity. The
proof of this lies in a pretty story.
Every night during an engagement
In Boston, a tiny bunch of violets was
sent to her. She always left the vio-
lets in her dressing room, but one
night she pinned the purple flowers to
her belt, and the following day, when
the usual fresh bouquet came to her,
this scrawl came with it.
"Dere friend Miss Barrymore: I
seen you wear my v~iolets, as I know
you got them. Tonight look at me,
[ will be in top GALAXY first roe, in my
shirt sleeves and my legs hanging
over the front of the GALAXY"
Miss Barrymore looked. Her adj
mirer, a bcotblack of eight or nine
years. was in the place and attitude
he had promised, and she rewarded
him with a smile and a nod Of recog-
~pition Star.
