Pre.Iaent on ) speskIna Tour.

President Taft is making a rapid
journey westward. He left his summer
home at Beverly, Mass, the first Of last
week and is now in Colorado. He spoke
first in Boston, then passed through New
York state, where he received and re-
turned fluctuations from Governor
Hughes. At Chicago he discussed labor
questions and use OF the injunction, de-
claring that our way of administering
Justice is "disgrace to civilization" At
Winona, Mimi, he made an important
utterance regarding the new tariff law.
He disclaimed perfection for it and said
it fell short OF his hopes, but be showed
how in the main il was an honest down
ward revision and be criticised the Re-
publican insurgents who voted against
the bill. AS Winona is in the district
where Congressman Tawney, chairman of
the committee on appropriations, is max
ing a hard fight for reelection, the
speech had great significance. Tawney
is the only member of the Minnesota del
egation who voted for the tariff act. Taft
then went to Des Moines, where he was
entertained by Senator Cummins, lead
ing Republican insurgent. At Denver
Tuesday be defended the corporation tax
feature of the new law.

Death Of Governor Johnson.

Gov. John A. johnson of Minnesota died
early tuesday morning at Rochester,
Minn., following q very serious operation
performed by the noted surgeons, the Drs
Mayo OF that place, for the femoval of abb
dominal Assesses. II Vas realized from
the nrst that death was probable. The
operation developed upexpscted eondi-
tions. However, the patient rallied so
we'll that strong hopes were entertained.
Death resulted from heart failure and ex-
haustion. He was conscious almost to
the last. His last words were to bis wife,
"Well, Nora, l guess I'm gciag; we have
made a brave fight. - Governor John
sons death has produced sadness and
mourning almost unequalled in his state
and extending all over the country. In
so many respects his career was relnarka-
BILE. He was OF Swedish parentage, but
the first OF Minnesota's governors to be
horn within her limits. His childhood
was spent in abiect poverty. He left
school at l3 and helped his mother do
washinRs to support the family. He
showed ability and became editor OF a
little country weekly, and got into public
life and politics, where be had a rapid
rise. He served two terms in the state
legislature and in 1904 was nominated by
the Democrats for governor. His oppon-
ents tried to slur him by saying that he
came from the poor house, but this
helped him, as did his Scandinavian
blood, and he was elected by 1900,
though Roosevelt carried the state BY
l61, 900. In 1906 he beat his opponent
by $4,000. In 1908 be had become a na-
tional figure and was strongly supported
for the Democratic nomination for the
presidency. In that year, for the third
time, he was reelected governor though
the stste went heavily Republican. He
had announced that be wonld not again
run for that Office, and was counted upon
to lead the party in the national contest
next time. He had many traits like Lin
coin. He was only 40 years of age.
