ARE RUFFLED OVER
 TAFT'S ACTION
Especial from United Press.)

T
 Beverly, July 30-The executive off, cers are today confidently awaiting a flood of letters from Derplexed and worried politicians protesting against the action of President Taft in can ceiling practically all of his speaking engagements prior to the elections in November. It looks as if the Presi- dent would really. stick to his an- nounced plan of not entering political fights this fall. Therefore the poli- ticians are peeved. There will only be one Keynote" speech judging from the League of Republican Clubs at New York some time in the latter part of September. Instead of a number of appearances of the Presidential pres ence which the politicians had counted on as an asset at the polls. the Chief Magistrate is to leave things strictly alone. Moreover, he will be away at Panama during the crucial days of the wind up of the campaign.
 Congressional campaign managers are not at all pleased with the outlook They had, confidently looked forward to a short campaign tour by the Exc cutive and expected his assistance in bracing up doubtful voters
 The fact, also, that the announce ment of the cancellation of the Presf- dents speaking dates followed a mys- terious conference with Senator Crane of Ma.ssa chusetts, has likewise left the political wiseaeres uo a tree. It was Senator Crane who advised the famous speech last fall in Minnesota lauding Representative Tawney defending the tariff bill. and spanking the insur- gents. Just now they can't reconcile the evident change of front exhibited by the Ma ssachusetts Senator
 A gleam of hope, however, is dis cerned in the western trip Senator Crane is to make at the Presidents behest. Washington State is the ob- jective point of this mission. So much has been brought to light at the Bal finger trial and elsewhere as to the unfavoring state of affairs in Republican camps there that the Pres tdent is anxious for a cleanup.
 Foremost among the accusations lev elled at the administration by the prosecution in the conservation trial was that the ring of politicians who controlled the destinies of Washington State were all grabbers of Alaska coal lands and the charge was also made that in consideration of their deliver ing the State they were to be allowed to dictate the policy of the Interior Department

DOWN IN MoNoNGALlA.

There are lively times ahead down
IN old "Monongahale'' before candl-
late Is selected on the Republican
ticket for State Senate. Ex-senator J.
n. McDermptt is very anxious to
spend four years more In the State
House OF Lords. while Delegate Ellis
fost has expressed his dissatisfaction
With longer service in the House of
Commons and Is aspiring to more ex.
llteIl honors. McDcrmott and Yost
have both come before the people with
declarations OF policies and principles,
md 1t is understood that the yeomnnry
,f the University county will get a
chance TO indicate their choice in n
general primary. The other counties
will probably take no part In the fight,
believing that Monongalia is entirely
capable OF choosing between these
MEN, for they are well known by their
friends and neighbors. 1t Is Mononga-
Has turn to have the senator and Mar.
on and Taylor will be glad to see n
wise choice made So they can endorse
he selection. There are many stories
liloat MS to the strength OF both the
candidates In the different parts of the
county. but the primary will tell the
rue tale and then the Republicans In
he other counties will know which Is
he more acceptable where both are
well known. That will settle the qurs.
Ion SO far MS present indications count
for anything.
