Taft Greeted BY Crowds.

CHICAGO, Sept. 4.-President Taft
passed through Chicago tonight on
the way to St. Paul, where tomorrow
he will deliver the principal address
at the National Conservation con.
gress. In the afternoon Mr.. Taft will
deliver q Labor day address at the
Minnesota state fair.
The president travelled today through
Ohio and Indiana, and at every sta.
ton. where the regular train carrying
his special 9 stopped, he was greeted
by large throngs. The crowds proved
q decided surprise to Mr.. Taft. No
arrangements had been made for
speeches or the dash from Beverly to
st. Paul and back, and the presiden,
had expected to travel along unob.

believes In Q sane solution of the cor.
ervation problem. His view Of the
matter is given in this statement:
"The total horsepower of water in
the United States is estimated at &c..
5l6,5O0, and Of this more than one.
third is in Washington, Oregon, Idaho
and western Montana. Less than $780,
600 horsepower is developed. 1t may
also be noted that nearly all the re.
naming public lands are located In
the Rocky mountain and Pacific states
and Alaska. East of the Mississippi
river are 20, 0OO, 900 horsepower of wa
ter and only 1900. 600 developed.
"In the Columbia river valley, be-
tween the Rocky mountains on the east
and the Cascades on the west, there is
sufficient water for all purposes Of the
present day and for generations to
come, including the operation Of all
the railroads and irrigation projects
we shall ave need, all the manufac-
turing we shall aver do aud all the
cities we shall ever build. That water
power Is 80 great that If 10, 1000 horse
power of it on an average should be
developed every year, it would take
2, 400 years before all of it would be in
use. and when once in use it would be
so for all time. If We were to harness
100, 600 horsepower a year, it would
require than 24O years to develop
all of it,"
These data give an idea of the enor-
nous extent of water power resources
which at some future time, under sane
methods of conservation, will be made
to perform useful service to mankind.
The adoption of such a policy would
be an act Of craftsmanship of inesti-
mable value to all American citizens.

have announced the population of two
states, and base on these complete re.
turns q tentative prophecy that the
census of 1910 will show q population
of 95, 600, 0OO, an increase OF 5000, 600
i've the highest figure considered as
probable before the enumeration was
made. The increase in the population
OF Oklahoma, one of the two states
whose tabulation has been finished, is
within a fraction of ITO per cent, the
population having q little more than
doubled during the past decade.
This estim ate lends special interest
to an eastern contemporaries analysis
of the NewIYork city ensus in its re.
lation to the population figures of the
entire country. Greater New York in
1910 has more people living within its
four f%gurative walls than there were
in the whole United NStstes when the
census of 1920 ,was taken, and that
census was takenGseventeen years al.
ter the Louisiana purchase vas made.
Out of the Louisiana territory have
since been carved states that now have
q population nearly three times that
of the entire Union in 1910, eve
years after the purchase.
According to the New York World,
there are now living west Of the Mis-
sissippi river as many people IS there
we're in the whole United States in
1850, only ten years before the Civil
wal began,!and Oklahoma, youngest
of the states, which, as state and ter.
ritory, has figured only in three cen.
suses, has more'people than all New
England contained in 1920. Illinois
and Ohio. states created out of the
Northwest territory, which was or.
ganized about the time of the fret
federal census of 1890, now contain
respectively more people than were to
be found In the entire country when
the Northwest territory was first or.
gained.
There is az element of romance in
these figures, but there is even more
in a study of the successive decennial
increases in population as shown by
the thirteen censuses that have been
taken. In 1870, one year after Wash
ington became president, there were
shown to be 3,929,2l4 people in the
new horn limited States ~ Amar;ca
In thirty years the increase was but
5,704, COS. and in 1880 there were only
three times as many people as there
were in 1890.
There has not been a census since
1920 that has not in round numbers
shown an increase greater than the
entire population of the country in
1870, and for the past four decades the
decennial increase has been from three
to four times the original population.
Accepting thelestimate of only 80. 900,
600 for 1910, the increase over 1900 will
be l3, 700, 900, the greatest increase for
any census in the history of the coun.
try, while If the optimistic prophecies
OF the census officials are realized and
the census OF 1910 shows IS, 000, 900, the
increase during the last ten.year per.
iod will be between 10. 00O, 600 and co.
O00, 900, or between four and five times
the original population of the coun.

brought about by the Republican party
that has maintained him in office and
luxury many years. Before starting out
to play a reform stunt to keep in office
he had anything but a complimentary
opinion of political reformers, saying
that they are so sour that bedbugs even
turned them down. To prove this I'll
quote from an interesting book of 'Fa
bles,' OF which McNeal is the proud
author. On page 14S there is a chap
ter entitled, The Reformer and the
Bug where McNeal says:
"A political reformer who spent the
most of his time in grumbling about
the awful conditions of things in gen
eral, was shown to a hotel where there
were several insects known to science
as 'cimex lectularius-' One of the bugs
started to make a raid on the sleeping
reformer, but after taking a few bites
he was observed to let up and walk
off in disgust. What is the trouble?'
asked another bug, who was surveying
the situation from a footboard of an
other couch. Why don't you fill UP
when you have the CHANGER Fill up
Eothing,' replied the Disguised bug.
that man is so sour that his meat sets
my teeth on edge. And the reformer

BIDDLE OPTIMISTIC.
Manager Uses One of Me-
Meals Fables to Advantage.

w. I. Biddle of Leavenworth, chair
man of the Republican congressional
committee for the First district, came
to Topeka today as one of the ad-
vance guard of the Kansas Day ban
quet crowd. Speaking of the congress
sional fight between McNeal and An
thony, Mr.. Biddle said:
1.-THE First district has never gone
Democratic or Populistic at a general
election, and there is no danger of the
Republicans nominating any but
true Republican as a party candidate
for congress in a primary contest
where they have the deciding. Re-
publicans alone will make the nomin-
alton for their party in the primary
contest in August, and in my Judg-
ment, Anthony will beat McNeal more
than two to one.
This prediction is based on
knowledge of the situation in the
eight counties of the district. In
some townships the Republican vot-
ers are reported to be solid for An
thongs denomination. 1t is said in
one township in Jefferson county with
over 800 Republican voters not
single one has declared for McNeal,
and there is another township
in Brown county with over
$50 Republicans all reported
TO be for Anthony. AS rule
those for McNeal are lukewarm Re-
publicans and fault finders who are
scarcely ever satisfied and generally
vote the Democratic ticket. The
chronic party disturbers are for Nc
Neal.
1.-The sentiment of Republicans is
clearly shown by the party organiza-
ton in the district. There are 226
voting precincts in the eight counties
where Republican county commit
teeman was elected by members of
the party in each precinct There are
eight vacancies owing to deaths and
moving of committeeman since the
primary in August, 1908, and there
are now 21S active members of the
legally constituted party organization.
OF these Republican precinct COM
mittee men 1875 are for Anthony's re-
nomination and % for McNea1 or
doubtful. OF the eight county chair
men, seven are for Anthony and one
for McNeal. The congressional COM
mittee is made up of eighteen mem
bers; sixteen for Anthony, one for
McNeal and one doubtful.
1.-THE newspapers as "a rule reflect
the sentiment of their community and
the district There are six daily pa
pers in the First district; three of
them favorable to Anthony, one for
McNeal and two neutral. There are
fifty-six weekly papers aside from
trade and sectarian journals. OF
these five are Democratic, five indie
pendent, two labor, one German and
one a negro paper. There are forty
two Republican weekly papers, of
which thirty are favorable to An
thony, four for McNeal and eight neu-
trail
Mr.. Biddle used one of McNeal's Fa-
bles as follows:
Its rich to see Tom sMcNeal posing
as a professional political reformer and
going around finding fault and cater
wauling against the awful conditions
