ROOSEVELT is MAKING
VOTES FOR OPPONENTS

New York, Nov. although they
are slow to admit it, there is no ques-
ton whatever that the Republican
leaders in this state believe that the
injection of Theodore Roosevelt into
the campaign has foredoomed the
party to certain defeat this year.
His so-called whirlwind campaign
has made votes for the Democrats,
and the grotesque attacks on the Dem
ocratic candidate, which have fallen
fiat, have alarmed the party leaders,
particularly those who combined to
make him temporary chairman at
Saratoga.
The revulsion of sentiment against
Roosevelt is so pronounced that it is
apparently only question of the size
of the majority that will be pulled up
for John A. Dix. 1t is not so much
the defeat that is impending that wor-
ries Republicans as the belief that
fore he is retired to oblivion.
His purpose is to rule or ruin, and
the probability of defeat has already
led him to excuses of speech and
language, indicative of vicious pur-
pose.
Roosevelt has attempted to set him.
self up as the real leader of his party
to the exclusion of President Taft,
and he has tried to be all things to
all men at the same time.
The insurgent of the Osawattomie
the stand-patter of Massachusetts, the
artful dodger of Saratoga is trying to
set himself up as a national dictator
and the result is the casting out OF
the Republican party from the govern.
ment of the Empire state, at a time
when, with the record of Hughes be
fore the people, the party was entitled
to be continued in office.

TALK OF MAKING
MISSISSIPPI CITY
PART OF GULFPORT
Mayor Foote Presents Matter to the
culfport Counsel and Says Missis-
sipp City is Willing.

Gulfport, Miss, Nov. 5.-At meet
ing of the city council Thursday Sc
rious consideration was given to pro-
posal to annex Mississippi City with
its two thousand people to the Gulf
port corporation, and to lop off some
portions of territory now within the
corporation which are sparsely settled
and of no benefit to the city.
Mayor George M. Foote, who
brought the matter up, was authority
for the statement that the people of
Mississippi City are agreeable to an
nexation. 1t is believed it would be a
benefit to Gulfport in that it would
increase the population to over 5000,
thus giving the city greater prestige,
as well as much more taxable wealth.
The eastern line of the corporation
now runs to within a short distance
of Mississippi City The latter town
is not now incorporated and it was
brought out at the meeting tonight

Mississippi City Will Benefit.

In case the annexation plan is adopt
ed, it will have to be done in Deem
Der or January in order that the an
nexed territory may become liable to
city taxes for the next fiscal year, and
even then it will be proposed to the
people of Mississippi City that they
shall not expect any important city
improvements for year or until the
first collection of taxes from the an
nexed territory.
Mississippi City is said to be sadly
in need of better schools and street
and other improvements which she
cannot obtain without incorporation.
No small number of her people have
their business in Gulfport. In the
event of annexation Mississippi City
would obtain a scent street car fare
instead of the 10-cent fare which her
residents now pay in going to and from
Gulfport. The proposal to annex was
looked upon favorably by the mem
bers of the city council tonight

said to be good man, but unacquaint-
ed with the duties of the attorney gen.

General Hudson, since taking charge
of the office of attorney general has
introduced many new methods that
will be of value to the state. He has
followed the lines that it is better to
get a good compromise than a bad
case, and has exercised good jurgment
in handling several important cases
for the state. He settled the Gulf
port cotton rate case with the rail
roads. thus saving the state considera-
BILE litigation, and, at the same time,
getting better terms than the railroad
commission could have asked for,
since the rate was made to apply, not

are confident he will be elected for g
full term in an office which he is well
equipped to fill.

This beautiful gossamer fabric, "the queen of Irish laces,'' was first made in the south of Ireland only, but the in- dustry has gradually spread to all parts of the island, and it is now taught in most of the convent and national schools.
 During the famine of 1S47-1S50 nun unraveled a piece of Point de Milan lace, examined the Italian workmanship in de- tail and when she thoroughly understood the secret, chose number of the little convent children who had shown a tal- ent for needlework and explained and taught them with no small degree of patience what she had learned. The results were far-reaching.
 The Irish lace of today, however is still more complicated. for some hundred newer stitches were afterward invented and added. The lace looks fragile, but has great durability and grows more val uab1e with age.
