The country needs no other oy,denca

The country needs no other evidence
that the views of Aldrlch arc the
views of Taft. The Presidents sigma
ture made the measure an Aldrlch-
Taft one. AS such 1t has bean launch
ed and as such 1t will be criticised.
1t was Aldrlcn who had President
Taft's ear at Beverly, the summer cap
ital, when Other statesmen of tile first
rank sought hearing In vain, 1t is
Aldr!ch, according to Mr.. Taf;'s own
prediction, who is slated IL lift the
nation from Its financial mornss and
give ii smooth sailing.
President Taft will doubtless re-
iterate this belief on his Western tour.
The reception of these predictions
may embarrass him. The prestige of
the presidential Office is one thing,
but the role of apologist for Aldrich
is another.
Mr.. Taft will find, before his West
ern tour Is far along that the people
who elected him President have rad
ically different views on the nations
tariff needs than those held by the
New England group of mill bosses
which are Embedded in the Aldrich-
Taft bill.

WALKING PARTIES.
The New York Girl Found . New
Form OF Entertainment In Canada.

The New York Girl Found New
Form Of Entertainment In Canada.
did you ever hear OF a walking
party?" asked New York young
woman who had just returned from
a long stay in Canada. mo, I don't
mean little walking trips across the
country in which group Of persons
engage, but form Of evenings en-
tertainment. Those Canadian girls
seem to be taking exercise continu-
ally, and any social affair is all the
more enjoyable across the border II
1t includes what seems to some Of
US a lot of hard work.
Invitations to a walking party
are sent out with Just as much cere-
mony as II the affair was to be a
dance or a theatre party. 1t is es-
sential for a perfect walking party
that there shall be an equal number
of young men and young women.
Those invited meet at the home OF
the hostess at the usual time for an
evening afYair. The guests are pair
ed of and the route Of the walk Is
announced.
ut isn't any walk around the block
by any means. Five miles at the
least. One man acts as a master
Of ceremonies, and he and his part
ner lead the procession from the
house. When the parade has moved
certain specified distance the lead
er calls a halt and turns his partner
over to the man OF the next leading
couple. Then each man moves up
one, the leader taking the girl at the
foot of the line.
ssThe march Is resumed until the
next stage is reached and then an
other change Of partners goes into
effect. BY the time the party returns
to the house there has been usually
complete change Of partners all
round.
"This isn't any summer an,use-
ment. In fact, tramp through the
snow with the thermometer some
where down near zero is considered
awfully good sport. But be 1t sum
mer or winter. the participants in a
walking party return ready to enjoy
the supper which winds up the eve
ming.
zone thing against these walking
parties. to my mind, is the antinual
changing Of partnerA You no soon
sr get interested in your companion
than you have to turn him over to
another girl. Maybe you draw good
partner at the start and a few min
utes later get stick. OF course 1t
is eminently fair to every girl and
to every man, but some girls, you
know, delight in being unfair when
there is a man in the case. AS ar

AWAIT EXPERTS REPORT
ON SALTAIR RAILROAD

When A. IL. Babcock, chief electrical
engineer for the Southern Pacific, was
in Salt Lake the first of this month he
carefully went over the Salt Lake & Los
Angeles road from Salt Lake to Ssltair.
He did thisst the request of that road s
management TO look over the situation
and make suggestions regarding the plan
Of the management to electrify that part
of its road. 1t is said Mr.. Babcock made
cOpiOus notes and that he is expected in
Salt Lake soon to make a report Upon
his report much depends. as if it is ia
vorable the management hopes TO have
the road electrified in time to accommo-
date travel when the resort season opens
in June.
The work of Mr. Babcock in this con-
neCtiOn gave rise to a rumor here that
Hartman intends buying the Saltair road,
but this is denied both by the Saltair peo-
pie and by officials at the oregon Short
Line general offices. Mr.. Babcock was
asked tc make the inspection simply be-
cause he is recognized as the most COM
petent man that could be selected. His
report on the proposition. il is said, will
be generally favorable. but it has been
