1t is now the popular thing to
parade President Taft As a friend OF
the South. Every consistent repub-
lican AMI Southern democrat who
is fortunate enough to hold llice
by his appointment, Is engaged
continually in trying % impress
this upon the country. The Sou
thern people believe that Mr. Taft
comes nearer understanding the
conditions Of this section, and has
greater respect for its sentiments
and social customs than any of his
predecessors since the war, but
that does not mean that he has
fallen in love with Dixie. or viii do
more to make it prominent in
national affairs than did Roosevelt,
Harrison, or Grant. Like them,
Mr.. Taft is the instrument Of his
party, and when it comes To a
show down on any question deter
mining the preference of sections
or parties, his attitude will not bc
unlike that of the aforementioned
gentlemen. OF course Mr.. Taft Is
a friend of the South, So were an
the presidents before him, and, we
trust. all that viii come after him,
but this eternal dInning Of it, on
every occasion, as if he were the
only friend the South ever had at
the head of the nation, smacks dis
gustingly Of serviIe court. 1t is not
well to write ones obituary before
he is dead, or to eulogize ones
administration before it has been
clearly determined. If Mr. Taft is
so friendly to the South, he Will
have ample opportunity to show it
in the remaining years of his ser
vice. As yet, his attitude has been
indicated by word only. Until it
has been demonstrated in some act
requiring courage of conviction at
some sacrifice to him. it were best
thatGSoutheln people saw wood
and say nothing The Weekly
has as much respect for Mr.. Taft as
it could have for any chief of the
nation, and appreciates his kindly
attitude toward this section, but
declines to join that class of
toadies who 60 into ecstasies at the
mere recognition Of royalty. Mr.
Taft is soon to be a guest of the
State, and viii be received with
honors, not because it is Mr. Taft
particularly, but because he is the
head Of this great country of ours
Jackson and Columbus will be
of the hospitality of
the State on that occasion and Mr..
Taft can not fail to get a good inn
preston Of its people, if the whole
is credited with qualities of a part.

The Winston County fair closed
a successful session last week. This
is the first fair ever attempted by
the people of that county, and the
stimulus it has given to grow better
crops, to raise better stock, and to
make the housewives more perfect
in the domestic and culinary arts,
will bring its returns I'm short sea

Monroe is a rich and populous
county It's people are intelligent
and are engaged in the various pro-

here as anywhere. The growing
Of alfalfa and other grasses, and the
cultivation of corn, cotton, other

BEET ROAD LOSES CASE.
supreme Court Decides Nice POINT
OF Law.

The supreme court has Just al
firmed the decision OF the io"e'
court in the condemnation proceed
ings of the Great Western beet ROAD
against Amos Ackroyd. The latter
owns a farm near Eaton, which was
trayersed by the road. At the triai
of the case Judge Southard OF the
county court allowed Ackroyd dam
ages to the amount of SLIGO. The
road appealed to the supreme court
In order to cross the defendant S
farm, the railroad had to make a deep
cut through hill on the farm. The
irrigation ditch was on top of this
hill, and in order to pass the deep
cut it was necessary to syphon the
water under the tracks. The rail-
road company agreed to do this, but
the defendant insisted on doing it
himself, and held that the railroad
should pay the damages in
money.
1t was on this point that the case
was appealed. and the decision set
tied a nice issue at alw. The su-
preme court decided that the railroad
company could pay damages in
money only. Judge Bradfleld of the
county court paid to the defendant
.oady his Judgment against the COM
pany for SLIGO. Attorney Churchill
the defendant and At
.orney Haines appeared for the COM
)any.

PAID NOTHING FOR ARMORY.
Grand Army Moving for COnvenienc.
Not to Save Expense.

Editor The Tribune:
Will you permit me to correct an
error which inadvertently crept into
your columns yesterday. The COM
mittee from U. S. Grant Post No. 13,
G. A. R., asked the city council for
the use of room in the city hall be-
cause its present quarters at the ar
mory are little out of the way for
a majority of its members to attend
its meetings with convenience. Il
was deemed especially desirable also
that the Post should have its quar-
ters nearer those of its auxiliary, the
Weman's Relief Corps. 1t was stat
ed as one of the reasons why We de-
sired . room IN the city hailAiAS.
the Post was through rapidly dimin-
ishing numbers no longer able to
rent quarters in either the Odd Fell
lows or Masonic halls. az 1t formerly
did; but az a matter of fact the Post
never paid nor has been asked to
pay a cent for the use Of the armory
and Company D at all times afforded

FIVE SMALL BOYS
in COUNTY COURT
THREE THOUGHT 1T WAS FUN
Parents Who Allow Children ON the
Streets Are to Blame.

There were five small boys before
Judge Bradfield Wednesday evening
On the charge of stealing copper wire
from the Northern Colorado Power
company. Each and all plead quit!
to the charge and also admitted that
they were in the habit of collecting
cid iron and brass and disposing of it
for spending money. All hVe were
sentenced to the Industrial school at
Golden, but the judge has not yet
made up his mind as to whether or
not he shall send the boys away at
once. 1t was evident that two OF the
ave were not baa boys and had been
led into viciousness by the other
three. who gave signs of being ne
elected ever since they left the cradle.
Until the judge pronounced the sem
tence three of these youngsters con-
sidered the matter huge JOKE
Bach had big wad of gum in his
face and during the hearing they
would wink at each other and laugh
and thought they were having a fine
time. 1t seems that the youngsters
have the impression that nothing
will be done to them for the first Of
fense and this makes many of them
bold. Two of these boys evidenced
eontrition and the chances are nine
4y-nine in a hundred that they will
never be caught in trouble again.
Tie other three are street toughs,
who could be seen on the down town |
streets almost any day and mostly |
any time of day. The parents of such |
boys are the ones who are more to
blame than the boys themselves. One
woman excused herself by saying
her boy had not been raised up that
way, but she couldn't keep track of
him all the time. The judge told her
HAT it was her duty to keep track
u him all the time. and fntimated
hat people who couldn't keep track
Df their children ought to be pun
shed and made to keep track of
Aem. If you make the home agrea-
lble the children will be glad to stay
here instead of wandering about
he streets and picking up whatever
hey find loose, until the inclination |
eads them to take things that are /
rot loose. No parent would let his I
lorse or COW out in that manner,
nd shows that they have much less l
IegArd for their children than for o
heir animals.
Three of these boys are on the di- J
Pset road to the penitentiary and if
Ne parents give them no more at
lention than they have in the past, it
viii do no good to place them under
he care of the court. 1t was evil
lent that couple OF these boys had
Doiled the balance.
The judge will probably make an +
'S5ect lesson of these street boys, Z
sAich will be warning to others anl a
'lso to shiftless parents who are no g
leabt gossiping with neighbors while C
AAir children are in the alleyways r
oaSning the art of crime. The par I
ats are responsible for this delin- =
Iaency and should answer to the q
'eaft. instead of the child. The in n
ssvigible should also be placed where ,
- influence will not reach other ;
