c. TAFT'S act FOR PARTY
So Says President -eIcct-To Push
Increment an South.

Augusta Ga Dec 31.-Beyond the remark
that the withdrawal Of Charles P. Taft from
the Senatorshp contest in Ohio in favor of
Representative Theodore E. Burton, a move
in the interest of party harmony. President elect
Taft would say nothing on the subject to-day.
II was he said. a matter regarding which any
statement made should naturally come from his
brother Charles.
Another conference was held to-day at the
Taft cottage on the subject Of the best means
to take advantage at the proper time Of the
real sentiment in the South favoring political
change Charles II. Sheriff.. Of the National
Business Mems League OF New York. who
reached here to-day. was of the conferrees,
while Messrs Taft, Hammond and Hitchcock
were the others.
This statement was dictated by Mr, Taft in
the presence of the conferrees and is given TO
the public as showing the exact situation with
reference to the matter to-day:
The conference between Mr. Taft and Messrs-
Hammond. Hitchcock and Sheriff.. in reference
to the action TO be taken with a view to the
organization Of the real sentiment in the South
in favor Of change In that section. resulted
satisfactorily in a plan agreed upon by all
parties

a view their subsequent organization at a
time when such political action would be op-

The impression which has gone out that in the
previous conference any Of the conferrees were
in favor OF giving up the movement WAS eT-

Not Calves, But Calves.

That butcher shops are the places
for startling revelations of various
sorts was illustrated the other day
when passerby. glancing in at the
window of one of them saw two sur
prising exhibits. One was a tray con.
tanning brains; the other was a very
fine liver. On the first was placed a
placard neatly lettered by hand; on
the second was another: One read:
Calves brains;" the other Calves
liver" There was no spacing between
the last two letters of the first word in
either case, and the possessive mark
was over the letter "e.'
But the shock soon passed when the
butcher assured the passerby he had
no desire to convey the impression
that the famous French singer had
been diSsected
