Once more the International Live
Stock Exposition. which will be held
in Chicago from Nov. 9th to Dec.
10th, has accomplished the seeming
ly impossible by again showing
most phenomenal increase in entries.
Once more all past records have been

brought to realize that interest is
growing in this. the greatest of live
stock shows this leading exponent
of the live stock industry-and that
this great annual event is becoming
more popular from year to year.
Even though feeding operations have
been exceedingly light during the
past year. we shall find an increased
number of entries in the cattle de-
partment. The draft horse exhibit
will be the greatest ever seen in this

linz age dates back into the dark
ages, will be seen in the ring beside
the most splendid specimens of the
English and Scottish types, whose
equals have never before been
brought together in such numbers
in the history of the show ring
The number of exhibitors in the
sheep department exceeds that of
any previous year, and in quality
their exhibits will far surpass any
thing ever seen here in the past, as
the entries show them to contain
some of the choicest importations
made to this country in recent years.
In the swine department all the
leading types will again be repre-
sented and the quality will be SUI
perior to that Of any show ever seen
on this continent. All these and
many other new features give prom
Use of making the coming exposition
the greatest in the history of this
splendid series of events.

ITO President Taft: Now that the
states are going to vote on the ratifi-
cation of the amendment specifically
authorizing an income tax, why not
give them a chance to vote on an
amendment providing for the election
of United States senators by popular
vote?
in your speech of acceptance you
said that you were personally inclined
to favor such change in the constitu-
tion. Would this not be an opportune
time to present this subject to Con-
gress - two constitutional amend
ments, one authorizing an income tax
and the other providing for the popu-
lar election of senator's?
Make your administration memora-
BILE and / pledge you whatever assist
ance can render in securing the rat
ification of these amendments.
