PRESIDENT TAFT

Even our insurgent compatriot, the
Valley City Times Record is inclined
to believe that President Taft is all
right, and making a genuine effort to
carry out the pledges of the Republi-
can platform. 1t Is certainly true that
through the efforts of President Taft,
more constructive legislation of a
beneficial and necessary character
was passed by the last congress than
for the past generation. President
Taft is a big man, anxious to bring
about results, and judicially deter
mined to do the fair thing by all class.
es and all interests. He is not swayed
from his poise by the cavilling of
demagogues, or deferred from his pur.
poses by the please of special inter.
ests. When his term shall be ended,
the Tribune believes he will be splen.
didly endorsed by the people of this
nation, and possess the confidence of
all factions Of Republicans, except,
perhaps, the few leaders who are
pluming themselves for the presiden-
tial succession and will therefore re.
fuse to see any good in Taft, because
he stands in their way.
The Times Record says:
1t is only fair to say that the atti-
tude of the public mind toward Presi.
dent Taft is much less skeptical and
antagonistic today than it has been
heretofore. A lot Of people believe
or at least are getting ready to be-
lieve-that the president has been the
victim of circumstances and condi.
tons which were especially difficult
and that he has done the very best
he could with the light he had, that
his heart is alright, even If his: judg:
ment is not the best. It is easy to
criticize, but upon sober second
thought the people of this country
will admit that President TAN has

Difficulties of the Chinese language
were ably demonstrated when the
problem arose of adapting it to tele-

the Morse alphabet to a language
which has no alphabet at all. but con

Then 1t was impossible to treat Chi

such system could deal with the Chit

Halter SksIter,

"Helter skelter' has been sugges-
lively defined as a jingling expression
vaguely initiating the hurried clatter
of feet rapidly and irregularly moved.
Most dictionaries, however, led astray
probably by the ordinary photography,
have missed the true etymology of this
phrase. 1t should be "helter keller"
"Helter" is an old word for '4hang,"
probably connected with halter, and
"kelter" is used by old writer's in the
sense of "order" or the proper state.
Thus Barrow, the divine, says, eff the
organs Of prayer be out Of kel@r how
