RAISED A PIG.

The Attica und.) Ledger publishes
the following get-rich-quick scheme
which the San Luis Valley ranchmen
have already found works all right:
will travel fast and far,
Raise a pig;
If you have a dear desire for a
splendid private car,
Raise a pig:
If your daughter yearns for jewels
that will make a lurid blaze,
Or your wife would be a leader
where some other matron sways;
If you wish to give up toiling and
in comfort spend your days,
There's a way-don't overlook it
Raise a pig.
If you're sick of serving others
and are longing for a change,
Raise a pig;
If you wish to gaze at wonders that
are far away and strange.
Raise a pig:
II your son would like to sluander
money on a chorus girl,
II you yearn to own castle having
walls inlaid with pearl.
If your dar ing daughter wishes to
be married to an earl.
There's a way-don't overlook it
Raise a pig.

ROOSEVELT Faction Is
CONFIDENT OF VICTORY
Prosressives Are Doubtful Of Being
Able TO Contro, State Committee
and Will Take Fight to Convention
Fioor-Greatest Struggle Is Expect
ed Over Direct Primary Question.
tBy Associated Press)

SARATOGA. n. Y. Sept. 24.-if the
progressives, under the leadership OF
Theodore Roosevelt, win the fight
against the regulars for control of
the Republican state convention
which opens on Tuesday. it will be
after a battle on the convention floor.
II is unlikely that an attempt will be
made to re-poll the state committee on
the Roosevelt-Sherman chairmanship
controversy at its meeting on Monday
night.
This is the situation as outlined by
President Lloyd Griscom of the New
York county Republican committee,
shortly after his arrival here today.
II indicates that the progressives are
doubtful of their ability to control
the state committee and That they
prefer to take no chance on having
the committee reject Mr.. Roosevelt
a second time. thinking 1t safer to
leave the solution of the problem 20
the convention, of which they claim
control by large majority.
Roosevelt Claims.
The minimum Roosevelt vote is
placed by< Dir. Griscom at $40. while
Cornelius :. Collins, of Troy, who Is
Inning up the Roosevelt forces, placed
The figures at $50, with new recruits
constantly coming.
State Chairman Woodruff tonight
declared there was little change in
afho contrast
would be close.
Mr.. Griscom re-told tonight the cir
cumstances leading up 20 the presen-
tation of Colonel ROOsevelt's name at
the state committee meeting on Aug
ust 16. He had been shown an ed'-
torial on Mr.. Barnes in paper in
which this statement appeared:
The argument advanced by MI.
Griscom that the members OF the
state committee who voted for Mr..
Sherman were deceived. is simply a
plain lie"
Deception Practiced.
The New York chairman reiterated
his former statement that deception
had been practiced in regard to Pres
ident Taft's position on the temporary
cLarmanship by the old guard lead
crs. but further than this he made
no comment.
While the progressives are CONT
dent of eiecting Colonel Roosevelt as
temporary chairman. the greater
struggle. they say. will come in the
committee on resolutions over the d.
rect primary question.
Asked about candidates, Mr.. Girls
com thought ire upstate section
should have the preference in naming
the candidate
Butt he added. whoever is Sc
lected must measure fully up TO the
standard of some good man we have
down in New York-Henry L. Slim
son. William s. Bennett and Seth Low
for instance.
