Feats That Never Happened.

4 grOtesque and foolish view OF the
west leads many who are not ac-
quainted with that part of the country
to perpetrate amusing plumbers re-
gardiIg the possibilities of the typical
western weapons, the rife and the six
shooter. To shoot an animals eye cut
at Il hundred PAGES is u common feat
in wild west literature. Sometimes It
is done with six shOOter-in type, not
anywhere else. OF course. no man
can see the eye of an animal that far
have had a good ri1eman tell me he
could cut off robins head at hun
dreI steps. The truth is that he could
not see The head clearly that far. You
read that the desperate Slade could
with six shooter at fifty or sixty
steps hit man in any button of his
coat that he chose. but you may be
sure that neither Slade nor any one
else could do anything of the kind.
Even trick and fancy shooting at its
best could ever cover feats ascribed as
matters of course to the average from

fiction who never saw the frontier

In its issue of March 6 Golfers
Weekly prints the following article by
President Taft. under the caption of
MY Predecessor"
"Mr. Roosevelt and l came to know
each other when he was chairman OF
the civil service commission and | was
solicitor general. in 1890 to 1892, in
Washington. We were both subordi-
mates in the Harrison administration.
We lived in the same part of Washing
ton. Our wives knew each other well,
and some of our children were born
about the same time.
"Mr. Roosevelt's real and what one
might almost describe as affectiOnate
interest in the welfare of the poor
man, of the man who has great OBJ
stacles to meet and who has the odds
against him in life's struggle. and the
sincerity of his desire to help that
class of men, no one who ever hal to
do with him could doubt; and his in
sisteDce has always been that the diff
ficulty between the sO-called classes in
the country and the failure of educated
lawyers and political ecOnomis and
others to bring about proper relations
between the well-tO-do and those who
are dependent upon wages for their
living, arises from an absence of a
proper point of view on the part of
those who are leading comfortable
lives. The confidence that the com
mon plain people, including the wage
earners. have had in Theodore ROose-
welt as their representative and de-
fender has been most perfectly placed;
for there never was a champion more
sincere in support of their real inter
ests. and yet there never was a friend
franker in his statement to them of
the unpleasant truths that occasionally
they ought to be told. MIR. Roosevelt
understands the plain people about as
well as Lincoln did, shares their feel
ings and gives accurate expression to
them. Hence his marvellous hold upon
the great body Of the people, which
has continued to exist in undiminished
strength in spite of the criticism heard
Of him and his methods in quarters
more conspicuous than really signih
cant.
'eWhen the friction of the last few
months shall be forgotten. when thu
mists of momentary irritation shall
have disappeared, the greatness o
Theodore Roosevelt as president ant
leader of men in one of the grea
moral movements of the country's his
tory will become clear to everyone
and he will take his place in histor
with Washington and Lincoln"

About fifty representatives of the
Mine Workers union met in Wilkes
Barre, Pa, with National President 4.
L. Lewis for the purpose of arranging
for a conference with the coal Operat-
ing interests. At the conclusion OF the
session President Lewis issued the fol
lowing statement:
The meeting of the tn ee district
boards was to consider the prospective
conference with the anthracite Opar-
atOrs. Many matters in this confer
ence. like others, will not be given to
the public not because we would not
like to take them fully into our conf
dence at this time, but for the reason
that we believe it would be an Unwise
business method to divulge negOtia-
tons which are pending and which

THE conference between the an
thracite operators and the United
Mine Workers representatives will be
held at the Reading Terminal building.
beginning Thursday, March II, at II
o'clock a. m. This is contingent only
on the possible postponement to
later date of few days on account of
the pressing nature of the business Of
interested parties. The members of the
three anthracite districts. executive
boards and the three International
board members of the anthracite dis
tricts. with such other representatives
as we may select, will go to Philadel-
phia to attend thiS conference"
There is much speculation as to
what the outcome of the negotiations
will be- The miners look for a suspen-
sion at the expiration of the present
agreement on March 81 until negotia-
lions are concluded. They believe their
demands will be declined at first but
hope at least to reach some compro-
mise The forty national organizers
in the field are busy recruiting the I'M
