What a political mess these republ:

What political mess these republi-
can leaders are getting into! Only
the other day President Taft was
cheek-by-jowl with Cannon and Aid
rich and their standpatism, now that
the stalwarts are getting the worst of
it, he says he is a progressive. Roose-
welt has been even more erratic. When
he was president he was hand-in-
with the old stalwart leaders from
Hanna down, and now he is an in
surgent; perhaps because he thinks
it is the most opportune faction to tie
to. These republican leaders may be
practical men," but they certainly
slop around too much for sober PEG
pie to follow them.

President Taft says he will give
the railroads a square deal regardless
of clamor and political influence"
Well, we should hope so! The presi-
dents predecessor in Office said that
he was giving the railroads a square
deal, but 1t now appears that he made
them donate 100000 worth of free
transportation as an inducement to
him to "act on the square" Oh,

Admits He Was Pretty Tough
When He Sent BrOther-in-Law,
but Points to Later Life.

Mayor J. C. Dahlman of Omaha,
candidate for governor Of Nebraska
on the Democratic ticket and the fore
most wild west figure In politics, has
told the story of hfs life because of
rumors that there are incidents in his
career which would not leave him on
such plane that he could ask for the
suffrage of the people Of the state.
These rumors affected his early life
in Texas, where, it was stated. he had
shot and killed man aud fed the
state, coming to Nebraska under the
name of Jim Murray" Mr.. Dahlman
confirms the report that he shot
man and fed from Texas and assum-
ed the name of Murray. But the man
he shot did not. he says, die. His YER
sion OF it is as follows:

too much work is apt to find himself
with none TO do when a pinch comes.
Many a woman would be supremacy
happy If she could only be as independ-

When a woman fails to hugh at her
