object he has degenerated, not to
mention the fact that in case of ac-
cident to his person, the government
would be less likely to tacur respon.
sibility than through any mischance
in his mysterious villa at Salonika.
It is objected to publicly, however,
that the sympathy likely to be
aroused for his condition might re-
act unfavorably upon the present
regime and that there would GER
tainly be constant plotting among
the reactionaries to get him into
their possession, in which case poll

could not be avoided throughout
the country.

KAISER WANTS INFORMATION
As to the Monroe Doctrine, as Inter-
preted by Taft and Teddy.

Berlin, April 4.-The attitude of
the United States, the Taft admins
tration, and, most important of all,
former President Roosevelt's personal
idea of the Monroe doctrine, will be
one of the chief topics of conversa-
tion when the hunter-statesman visits
the kaiser, according to information
that is said to have leaked from i'm
perial circles.
1t is apparent here that German in
terest in the former American presi-
dent is greater than that of any other
European country, England not ex-
cepted. There are many things that
German people would like to know
concerning America, and high official
dom is said to share this curiosity,
but the Monroe doctrine and the in
depreciation that probably will be ac-
corded in the future, is causing the
most discussion, as the Jay of Roose-
velt's arrival draws near
The emperor's well-known desire to
build up trade in South America,
coupled with the great number of
Germans who have gone to South
American republics, have made the
Interpretation that the United States
will likely put on the Monroe state
ment extremely important here. 1t is
generally supposed the kaiser will, in
a diplomatic manner, endeavor to
learn just how an ac.ual attempt at
German colonization in South Ameri-
co would be received in the United
States.

London, April 4.-Oficial an
nouncement few days ago that the
English government had decided to
evacuate British Somaliland, retain
ing only few coast towns, which can
be cheaply garrisoned against the
Mad Mullah's attacks, was greeted
with a chorus of approval at first, as
ending a heavy financial drain for the
holding of an entirely worthless coun-
try. But suddenly some one sug-
gested that the evacuation amounts to
a victory for the Mad Mullah over
British arms. So now the government
is being severely criticised.
England first took possession of
the coast towns it still holds as posts
from which to trade with natives in
the interor. The tribes nearest the
coast were friendly to the British
The Mad Mullah, farther in the in
terror disapproved of this, and took
to raiding the "friendlies," numbering
them and carrying away their cattle.
The "frienG4es" appealed to the
British to help them. The British
complied. In Ihis way they were
drawn, little by little, farther and
farther into the interior, until they
finally found themselves chasing the
Mad Mullah all over SomRliland
Whenever the British could get him
in an open fight they won. But they
could not catch hm.
This went on for ten years. 1t has,
cost England about $25, 100000. More
than 1000 men have either been killed
in fights with the Mad Mullah or
have died from the murderous cli-
mate EVaCuatiOn is an admission
that time, money and men are all
wasted. The Mad Mullah is more ac-
tive than ever just now. The retire
ment of the British leaves the friend
lies" to their fate.

The interest in the play est. Elmo"
is not confined to any class or age of
men and women. The book has been
very popular with the last three gener-
ations, and the management asserts
that it is no unusual thing to see three
generations of one family at a per-
Torrance. Readers of fiction recall
st. Elmo as one of the most beau
tiful love stories of the language. The
character of Edna Earle is undoubtedly
as appealing as any in fiction, and the
regeneration of st. Elmo Murray
through her love is tale of which one
never tires. Miss Grace Hayward, who
dramatized the book, has taken few
liberties with the story, and the result
is play that fully satisfies, wholesome
and true to the last degree. The ap-
pearance at Royal hall next Wednes-
day evening is one of the most promis-
ing events of the year. The original
company and production are guaranteed
by the management. Tickets, 25, 35,

The gathering of that mighty host OF
republicans in Milwaukee on Wednes-
day in demonstration of their loyal sup
port of President Taft and his efforts
to redeem the pledges given in the ma
tional convention, was one Of the most
significant political events in the his
tory of Wisconsin, Let it be plainly
understood that this convention was
composed of hundreds of men, stall
warts and half-breeds who have grown
heartily tired of the effort certain lead
ers have been making to make them
disloyal to President Taft. They are
tired of the effort to divide and disinte-
CRATE the republican party. They are
still republicans, filled with old time
loyalty to loyal leader. And so they
came together to say to the world,
eve stand by President Taft" and
stand by him they will Gov. Hoard.
The presence of twelve hundred rep
resentatives of the party at the confer
ence called on SO short notice and
with so little advertising is indicative
of profound feeling among the repub-
licans of the state. The usual driving
power that makes convention, name
ly candidates in the field who see that
county delegates pledged to them shall
attend the convention, was absent. The
delegates went to Milwaukee to ex-
press their faith in good and hard
laboring president who is carrying out
the wishes of the party and as sol
emn protest to men elected by the
party who are baking and thwarting
the efforts of the president. Madison
Journal.
The time has come when men claim
ing to be republicans when wanting Of
flee, and democrats when in Office, will
be obliged to flock with those with
whom they sympathize politically, when
men protesting to be republicans re-
nounce and denounce, by their acts,
every principle of the party. Mem
bers of the party may differ on ques-
lions of procedure and expediency, but
in the main should stand for the prir-
ciples of the party generally, and work
for carrying out the party pledges to
the people. If they cannot do that,
they have no right to wear the label or
claim membership in the party, much
less to ask for party recognition. =

WHILE the railroads and the indus
tries represent great blocks of capital,
contributing largely to the wealth and
stability of the nation, the farms of the
country total more wealth than these
two great forces combined. The Or
ange Judd Farmer is sending out some
statistics, recently com led, which are
of interest, because reliable, and be-
cause they demonstrate that the farm
is the foundation of national prosperity.
The number of farms in the United
States is 6, $50, 900, an increase of |, OOO,-
600 during the last decade. The value
is placed at $50, 900, 900, 600 and the
product for 1909 represents So, 900, OOO,-
600, nearly SO per cent on the capital
invested. That's, better than a gold
mine, railroad, factory, a CONNER
cial business, or any other investment.
While life is lottery representing
more blanks than prizes, the farm is
by far and away the safest medium for
investment. The land never runs away,
never burns up, and the forces of ma
ture are reliable partners. Stay by the
farm.
