blocks In their pockets for Mr.. Roose-
welt.
When President Taft makes an en-
gagement 70 meet Senator or
Congressman or any other person. he
gives him the time that his business
seems to justify. and he does not in-
vite . crowd in to participate in the
conference. Neither does he jump
Up from his seat, as President Roose-
welt frequently did, before the caller
had more than half finished explain
ing his mission and exclaim cordial
ly, I'm so glad that you called: be
sure and come and see me again. !"
The Roosevelt hand would be out
stretched. as he spoke the words. and
the visitor would find his shoes on
the mat outside the door before he
was able to repeat his own name.
OF course the Taft method has its
drawbacks. II means more hard
work, more hours OF work for the
president. It means that scores of
men who call at the White House do
not see the president at all. But
those who do get In. go away with
a warmer regard for the man at the
helm, and feel that he has, in a
measure, assumed part OF their bur
dens. Even II he has not been able
to grant their requests, he has at
any rate, assured them or his friend
illness. In this Mr.. Taft resembles
the late President Mckinley. He has,
also. many OF McKinley's manner
isms. and like the martyred Execu-
tive. will undoubtedly go down in
history as the "Placator"--a presi-
dent who smoothed things with oil
rather than the ak.
President Taft has announced that
he will abandon the referee" system
in the South. He will allow the Con-
gressmen and the Senators some say
so in the selection OF Federal ONO
ials, even though they be of the OPP
posite political party Mr.. Roose-
velt's appointments were made upon
the recommendation OF small coteries
Of southern republicans many of
whom were not in good favor with
the best people Of Dixie and whose
selections were often obnoxious to
southern sentiment
Neither will President Taft make
so many personal appointments
as his predecessor. 1t has been the
custom for more years than the old
est politician can remember for the
president of the United States occas-
ionally to send a nomination to the
senate and request that II be con.
firmed on personal grounds" I'm.
I'll Mr.. Roosevelt's hand grasped the
tiller, these personal appointments
were few and far between, for few
executives ever abused the privilege
But he handed in so many OF this
kind that senators and representa-.
tives made serious complaint. Every

In the matter OF messages to Con-
gress. no two men could be more
widely different. Roosevelt wrote
them. apparently. morning, noon and
night. They ran q perfect stream or

versified trouble, were all meat for
the something-doIng-every-minut
president, and he kept the world
busy thinking and talking about him
for seven years and half. Presi-
dental messages were the longest on
record as well as the most numerous
under the Roosevelt regime, and II
present Indications may be taken as
a promise for the future, those Of
the present administration will be the
shortest and most seldom seen. The
only one that has been sent to cong

Roosevelt gIoried In fierce physical
exercise, whether with the gloves.

down his flesh and plays an occas-

TAFT AND ROOSE-
WELT COMPARED
The Strenuous Gives Way to Con-
sentative Business Methods


WASHINGTON. April al
though the Taft administration Is but
month old. its startling con-
trasts to the Roosevelt regime are
already sticking out like burrs on a
chestnut.
In everything that President Taft
does, whether in the line OF work or
play, politics or religion. exercise OF
brain or exercise of body, he Is the
absolute antithesis OF the man who
is now on the high seas bound for
the Dark Continent. The very trip
Mr.. Roosevelt is taking Is typical Of
the differences between the two men
and not by the widest stretch OF inn
agination could anyone conceive OF
President Taft forsaking the COM
forts Of civilization for an invasion
Of the African jungle. Moreover. 1t
Is doubtful IL Mr.. Taft ever killed a
living creature knowingly; certain

and If he INDUCED in squirrel shoot
ing or muskrat trapping Ia his young

The Roosevelt household goods
were scarcely out OF the White House
before the attaches Of the establish
ment realized that the "old home
isn't like 1t used to be" The blue
coated police officers at the front
door Of the mansion disappeared and
two tall. chocolate colored negro but
lers with white shirt bosoms and
grey vests took their places. The
white man at the door OF the Secre-
tary to the President also vanished
to make way for colored man. The
stable housing the jumpers, PAGERS
and gallopers provided for President
Roosevelt's use was transformed into
garage. and two magnificent auto
mobiles replaced the carriages that
had conveyed the White House fam
lily from place to place about the
Capital. President Roosevelt never
acquired a liking for devil wagons;
President Taft fell in love with them
on the first whirl.
From the first day of the admin
istration the manner of handling Wis
itors at the White House underwent
a change. The strenuous gave way
to the peaceful. Roosevelt shot his

Lafayette had the stand constructed

admitted he had not. the councilman
replied. then do not see where yon

did not come In. but the stand was a
benefit to the city--that he had paid
his share and done his work, and he
felt that It was just for the city to
assume the remainder. but It was for
II to say whether " would or not. :"
A move was made to refer the matter

council should consider dt AZ body.
The council finally decided 70 accept

condition that Lafayette should guar

Councilman Ransimer opposed II as
he felt that the stand was constructed

remarked. about all the city has
been doing here lately Is to pay old
bills, and think this il a bill LaFay-
cite ought to pay himself.

miles from Fallon, on Spring creek.
Practically alone and unaided she has
made her improvements and put in her
crops, studying thoroughly dry farm

Christensen recently told the story of
her success to a member of the Fourth

Deafness Cannot be Cured

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken ont and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
