Washington, D. G.

March II, 1910.
The smile has come off from the
face of Pres. Taft, and II is being
succeeded by a frown which grows
deeper day by day. He is not smil-
ing inside any more, either. and his
temper is getting short and vicious.
He has all the marks of a man who
is badly disappointed, and who is
pretty mad because no body will help
him do the things he thinks he
ought to do.
1t is getting clear that Mr.. Taft
is more or less in the position of the
donkey that starved to death between
two haystacks, because he couldn't
decide which one to begin on.-Mr.
Taft decided all right but he got the
wrong one. And now he is mad be-
cause the other bunch are not help
ing him out. And he is getting mad
der and madden.
There is no doubt about Mr.. Tafts
intentions. He wants to get the best
laws he possibly can for the country,
and he Is anxious to carry out the
Roosevelt policies" He saw that
Roosevelt's fighting didn't get very
much and he thought he would
try the soft answer. So he began to
cultivate tho friendship of Aldrich and
Cannon and their friends, the men
who are opposed to Roosevelt, but
who do control Congress. He thought
that by smiling he could get them
to do something but that by fighting
them he would simply fail to get
anything.
And this plan might possibly have
worked-tho up to date the C. & A.
crowd have given him more lies than
anything else-if 1t had not been for
the insurents. Mr.. Taft wants about
the same things they do and he ex-
poets them to see things the way
he does, and take what they could
get-in other words, help the deal
along. He was sure that it would
be best for the country, and expect
ed them to take his word for it, But
they won't. They want what they
want when they want it, and that's
now. So, instead of taking the half
way measure which c. & A. are put
ting out, they are fighting for the
things which they believe right. They
believe that the real way to get them
is to beat the men who are in con-
troll, instead of dealing with them.
So there we are. Taft agrees with
the Insurgents, and is fighting them. ]
He disagrees with the stand-patters,
and is helping them. No wonder he

Capt. Walls Was
Deserted by Crew,

The following special to the New YORK
World tells of the inhuman desertion OF
Capt. Walls by his crew and his later
rescue:
Galveston, Oct e6-That heroic old
! sailorman, Capt. E. E. Walls sWore'
saltily, he would sink with his disman-
tied schooner, the Holliswood, when his
crew of seven and his dog Tim were
taken off her, helpless on stormy sea-
nine days ago.
But Capt. Walls did not go to Davy
Jones' locker, nor did the Holliswood
founder, hulk as she was. after the storm
battered her.
Captain and schooner were brought In
here today by the steamer Parkwood.
Capt Falconer, from Trinidad 10 this
port The Parkwood came across the de-
| relict, with its lone sailor. off the Cam
pechy coast at noon last Thursday and
sent boat to her.
Capt. Walls. s. years old and 40 years
seafarer, had eaten nothing and had
drunk only salt water for the three days
after the Norwegian steamer Harald
Iok off his dog and his crew. They left
him without a mouthful Of food or fresh
water He was more dead than alive
| when the Parkwood's men found him.
They trickled whiskey between the
old Maine mariners teeth and revived
him and his power of win. too. as II
proved.
Come. now. we'll lower you in our
boat said the ParkwoOds sailors.
IA
Here l stay unless your master to"s
my boat ill.," answered Capt. Walls,
and that settled it.
Il did not want to tow the schooner
and 10000 feet of lumber for week
but the old man wouldn't leave her.
said Capt Falconer admiringly, today.
of course, 1 would not leave him, so
we undertook the task. / never thought
capt Walls would live. but he is all
right"
1T was hell during the hurricane
that we fought for nearly four days,
from Friday. the fourteenth. to Monday
| noon, when the Harald met US" said
capt. Walls. But il was more than
hell for me to be tossed around like
| a cork for three days until the Park
| wood picked me up. l thought I had
been adrift a month: they tell me

| II was cruel to leave me without food
nr water. but those seven men. that
crew OF mine. were crazy to get aboard
the Harald. ana the master OF her
would not take my schooner. SO

Commerce Commission suspending the

Posts narrative to explain how this
leg was hurt
We were going through a dense
tangle of bralnbles and fallen timbers
and making very slow progress. In
working MY way through / leaped up
on what looked like a solid log 1t
crumpled beneath me and my whole
weight vas suddenly thrown upon my
right leg which bent under me.
Il can stand a good deal of pain
said Mr.. Hawley, but / never had
anything take hold of me like that
did,
Again taking up the thread of his
story, Mr.. Post said:
On account of Mr. Hawley's in
jnred leg, we took il easy on Fri
Gay and went into camp early On
Saturday on the shore of a small
lake, we came upon the cabin of
Jacques Maiiais. He was absent at
the time, BIZ, we enjoyed his hospital
ity for that night and the whole OF
the following day. Unfortunately the
cabin was bare OF supplies.
About o'clock Monday morning, Mr..
Hawley went to the bank of the lake and
shouted Hello several times. The call
was answered and short time later

pers. padded up in a canoe.
AFTER explaining our situation to them
they readily agreed to aid US in reaching
the nearest habitation. We went by canoe
to Lake Blanche. where We camped
Monday night. Our new-found friends
caught some trout and we enjoyed the
first good meal in long time. The re-
mainder of our journey to Chicoutimi
was comparatively easy"
Over a score of kilograms containing
words of praise for the achievements OF
the aeronauts and extending congratula-
tions were delivered to Hawley and Post
on their arrival here. Among them were
the following:
