It may be expected that the congressman will surrender to President Taft rather than to give up the patronage for their district, but it is not to be expec- ted that the insurgent republi- can senator's will be so easily suppressed dH However the repub- Hcans haveea habit of getting together on election, day, regard less1of whether they agree with the policies of the majority or not.

The Man Who Runs Down
 His Home Paper
(Raton Range.)

When you hear man running down his home paper or any local industry take a good look at him.
 Ten to one he will have g chin as long as a rail, an eye as restless as horse thief, and hewill hitch around in his chair as though he had a touch of St. 'Anthony's dance. Talk with him a while, and you will discover that he has made a failure of everything he ever tried (except being disagree able) and nine times out of ten he is dependent on the public for favors or support; you will find him of a meddlesome peevish. jealous, hateful and unreliable nature; a man who is always complaining, and although he has but little, if anything of his own, one would imagine to hear him talk, that he had a.quit claim deed to the earth and a first mortgage on heaven. He knows eyerybody's business and why should he not. He has none of his own to take up his time. Such people like mosquitoes, were not created in vain perhaps, but one fact .remains staple, they do not add-materially to the pleasures of conducting legitimate business.

HASKELL TALKS PROHIBITION
Governm ut. Can Interfere with Individ-

Atlanta, Ga.-"As a soldier is COM
PEELED to swear allegiance to his country
before he is allowed to fight her bat
ties, so should a candidate be made to
swear allegiance to a position of author
itv," declared Gov. Charles n. Haskell
of Oklahoma in an address before the
convention of the Southern Anti-Sa-
loon League here. Gov. Haskell was
urging the election of only anti-liquor
candidates to office.
Discussing the right of the government
to prohibit the sale of intoxicants, Gov.
Haskell said:
"Anti-prohibitionists argue that prohi-
bition binders the private rights of citi-
zens. This is undoubtedly true, but the
government has a right to do this. Sell
ing of poisons is prohibited by law. A
man who buys carbolic acid is buying it
with his own money, and if he wishes to
drink it, it is purely a personal matter,
but the law denies him the right"

Although it is difficult to make com

Baron Uchida, the Japanese minister,
however, said in answer TO specific ques.
tons: .
Il shouldn't think that my govern.
ment would interest itself i'll this mat
ter while it is the hands of the United

No information regarding the purpose
of the ambassadors call at the state de-

was expected that he would avoid a dis
cussion of the case on its merits, even
had he conferred or the subject.
Officials in another. department, how
ever, state that there was not the
slightest chance that Japan would inter
fere in government conduct of the case.
This statement was made after the call
of the ambassador. The reason for the
prediction was the official belief that the
japanese foreign office could not afford
to assume the attitude of publicity and
officially defending its citizens on pecu-
liar charges which were made against
them.
