ROOSEVELT TO
MAKE SPEECH
FOR BEvfR|OGE
FORMER PRESIDENT ANNOUNCES
THAT HE WILL ENTER INDIANA
CAMPAIGN AFTER CONFERENCE
WITH LEADERS,.

Oyster Bay, July S.-Albert J. Bev
/ eridge, United States sanator from
Indiana, and one of the mos
prominent and consistent "progres
/ sive' Republicans, came doWI
from Sycamore Hill yesterday after
noon with a promise from Colone
Roosevelt to deliver campaign speech
| in his fight for reelection to the
senate.
Senator Beveridge departed con
tent and smiling, but left it for the
colonel to make the announcement
Colonel Roosevelt said:
"Mr. Foulke and Mr.. Swift came to
Sycamore Hill and spent the night
here They came to request me to 60
to Indiana and speak in behalf OF
Senator Beveridge. l promised them
would"
He will make one speech, as far as
agreed upon yesterday.
Promise Is Significant.
The promis is considered most i'm
'portant. Bcveridge IS making his
fight for reelection as an insurgent.
He is opposed by John w. Kern.
In his fight the senator is placing
himself squarely against President
Taft. insofar as the tariff measure fig.
ures. The law, which the president
has defended as the best tariff law
ever, is denounced without equivoca-
ton by the senator, and the same
Republican state convention, which en-
dorsed Senator Beveridge for another
term, virtually repudiated the law. In
the senate Beveridge fought the bill
to the last.
1t is pointed out, however, that with
this exception President Taft and the
senator have been pulling together.
Visitors at Oyster Bay.
Sycamore Hill was fairly swarming
all day with men of various political
persuasions. There were three Indi-
anans among the visitors, besides Sen
ator Beveridge, they were William
Dudley Foulke and Lucian Swift Of
indianapolis. Three came from New
Hampshire, Winston Churchill, the
John Bass, war correspon-
dent, and his brother. Robert r. Bass.

nomination for governor. New York
state was representated by Represen-

Thomas H. Carter.
Roosevelt Goes Out Little.
4 Colonel Roosevelt appeared we'll
pleased with the result of the work of
talking politics To the interviewers
would say little concerning the con-
cerences. Thus those who sought to
interpret the day as general In
surgent rally, looking toward the shap-
ing Of Colonel Roosevelt's future atti-
tude, were left in the dark. AS an In.
dication that this is not the case, there
was the presence Of Senator Carter,
who, in the past, steadily has opposed

that Roosevelt would support Con-

Roosevelt but any action he takes will
be one he is convinced is for the good
Of the country"

prohibitionists have bolted the Iowa
Amendment association. The election
of H. H. Sawyer Of Sioux City, well
known ant-saloon league leader in the

break in the temperance ranks. Mr..
Sawyer was elected superintendent to
succeed the Rev. J. w. Day of the
First Presbyterian church, resigned,
at the meeting Of the board OIL
directors held in Des Moines Wednes-
day evening.
According to the statements Of the

board of direstors in placing an anti
saloon league man at the head Of the
amendment movement in the state
practically alienated all Of the party
p-ohibitionists.

BIC SAVING IN
ELECTION COST
PRIMARY EXPENSE OF 1910
SHADES PREVIOUS CHARGE BY
MORE THAN $1,000.

The comparison Of the cost OF hold
ing the primary election in Wapello
county during 1908 and the present
year shows that care and experience
has been effective in reducing the
figure and saving the county more
than $1,000. 1t will be seen that the
county officials cast about for the
best figure obtainable in printing and
supplies and their efforts were richly
rewarded. Then too the time spent
by the judges and clerks this year was
considerable less than two years ago
with the result that nearly $3.50 was
saved In this particular item OF ex-
pense. A comparison Of the table Of
expenses for the two election will show
that on each item saving was made
aggregating $1,086.98. The cost of the
election this year lacked but $81.2O Of

a liberal supply of horses. For the last
three years there has been slight de-

ported $4,000 borses at a cost of S20..
O00,000 Most of the imports we're made
for draught purposes; light draught horses
numbered 43, 800 and were of she value
of $4, $4,000 The heavy draught horses
numbered 4S,500 and were of the value
o.. $I0,000,U00. Supplies Of the former
class were drawn principally from Russia,
which sent 30.225 head; then came ths
Netherlands. with 9.024, Austria and
Hungary accounted for 2.525, Denmark
for 467, aud the rest were drawn from
France and Belgium. The heaviest OF
the draught horses were mainly supplied
from Belgium, 10000 being imported st

1903 Germany imported 267 half bred

them being from Belgium. Saddle horses
are put down as numbering 6,562, of
which Austria supplied 2,946, against
