THE PEOPLE ALONE MUST SAY
President Taft Has Made No State.
ment Regarding His Intentions
az to Another Term.

Beverly, Sept 17.-After the fullest
possible investigation of the story
printed In a New York newspaper that
President Taft recently declared that
he was willing to step aside in 1912 in
favor of ex-President Roosevelt, no
reason Is found for changing the state
ments that the president never, had
any such intention, and never said
that he had.
This particular story which quoted
the president and bore Beverly date,
1t is learned, was not even written
in Beverly or sent over the wires from
this place.
II the presidents position is cor
rectly understood, not he, but the
American people will say at the prop
err time whether he shall remain in
office or stand aside.

Started Before Wreck Occurred.
Luther E. Without, the station agent
at Holt, knew that the Rock Island
train was coming and that the wreck
was inevitable. He told the persons
around the depot of the conditions and
they got the hancars the section men
use and started up the track.
The men who left the station were
not more than half mile away when
the trains met on the trestle, which is
on a curve. The Burlington train,
made up of baggage car, smoker and
chair car, was much lighter than the
Rock Island and could be stopped
easier. The crews on both of the
trains saw that a wreck could not be
averted and, after throwing the emer.
gency brakes, the men jumped.
The brakes brought the Burlington
train to a stop quickly, but the heavy
Rock Island train couldn't stop. 1t

than 80 yards by the impact.

the train and was just lighting the
lamps in the coach when the collision

believe solely In party, but who use
the party as a means to an end and
that end should be the greatest good
to the greatest number Of people. That
Is patriotism and every one Of you

a feeling Of patriotism.
