How The South Is Being Won
Over by TAFT.

III MS newspaper, Inc issue,
Former Governor Va daman of
Mississippi discusses the claim that
"Mr. Taft is close to the southern
people" " Governor Vardaman says:
LET US see how close Mr.. Taft is
to the southern people-what he
stands for, that they are interested
in. He is the embodiment Of the
Payne-Aldrich bill, which is the
most iniquitous of all robber
tariffs. He stands for ship subsidy,
which is a steal pure and simple.
Grand larceny by law. He stands
for central bank of issue, which
will put the control of the money
supply of the nation in the hands of
a few great financiers who would
scuttle the ship of state and outrage
the Goddess of Liberty, coin the
tears and blood of the toiling people
into dollars, or damn their immor-
tai souls for profit. He stands for
a great army and a great navy,
which increases the burden of tax
alton, now so heavily borne by the
farmers and laborers of this re-
public. He stands for social and
political eqaulity between the white
people and the negroes, which
means the destruction of the white
mans civilization in the south, and
the contamination Of Caucasian
blood. If Mr.. 1aft's views on the
race problem should be carried out,
the white people would ultimately
be forced to leave the south. He
stands for Imperialism which is
violative Of the genius of our
government. He stands for usur-
patton of power by the federal
judiciary. In other words, he is
the incarnation of the extreme
infamies of the republican party
pilded with an innocent smile. If
Mr.. Taft is close to the people of the
south, he is only close to them to
corrupt the integrity of the white
race, to plunder by law the
people who toll, that the few pets of
the republican party may grow
richer still. To do everything
against their interest and nothing
for their interest, is what he stands
for in politics. About the only
thing he is willing to give the
southern people is the sunlight OF
his trademark smile and few hot
air compliments. And with all that,
think Taft is a much better mar
politically, much truer to his con
victions, and closer to the southern
people, than Dickinson. Taft j!
what he pretends to be. Dickinson
is as much of republican as Taft
and pretends to be a democrat.

Eau sucree is said to dispel thirst
more efticaciously than any other
drink, and it is simplicity itself. Put
three large Jumps of sugar In a tum-
bier with tablespoonful of water
and allow the sugar to dissolve, then
fill up with more cold water. The

GET DIVORCED BEFORE
MAY 10.

On May 10th the new state law on
divorce will take effect, which pro
hibits divorced persons from marrying
again within one year,
Tho new law has brought a rush Of
business Ia the courts OF Salt Lake,
where 81 cases for divorce were un-
der consideration by Judge Morse on
Friday.
One year is not long time to wait
unless, with malice aforethought, the
restless one has made arrangements
before separation to remarry. In such
cases of improper relationship, the i'm
patient, scheming. treacherouS appll-
cant for divorce should be held down.

CHARLIE ROSS.

The Whitla kidnapping, the most
sensational since the Cndahy case at
Omaha, says the New York World,
has naturally stirred memories Of the
Charlie Ross abduction and naturally
brought out n new claimant as the
principal Of that uRSolFed mystery. A
brakeman in a Pittsburg suburb has
long cherished the belief that he Is
Charlie Ross. Charles Brewer, a
farm hand killed on the railroad
tracks near Middletown, n. Y, last
February, entertained a similar belief.
In 1906 Texan claimant appeared.
No doubt there are many others. When
Christian Ross died in 1897 he had
spent $4,000 In a vain effort to locate
his lost son. He said In 1890 that he
had then followed up several hundred
false clues leading TO all parts OF the
country.

Furthermore he will declare for a

American production which require
protection, including lead, wool. citrus
