The President,s Programme.

Beverly, Aug. 29.-That President
Taft is not overlooking the possibility
that the republicans will not control
the next House of Representatives is
strongly indicated at the summer CAPT
tai. He is actively preparing his pro-
gramme OF legislation to be submitted
to the short session of Congress, which
meets on December 1. This will COM
promise all of the bills carrying out
the party platform pledges not already
enacted into law and every effort will
be made by Taft to force them
through.
Past short session has been one
exclusively for appropriation bills
and departmental measures, but this
winter this will be changed. President
Taft has already started his campaign
to bring the insurgents and regulars to-
gethcr in his plan OF party re-
organization" recently announced,
having been designed to salve the feel
ngs OF the insurgents and get them
into harness for the administration
bills.
The president wants to clear up the
contested schedules of the tariff bill,
and he made it plain in his letter to the
chairman OF the republican congress
sional committee, published today, that
he thinks a special rule should be
adopted by Congress which will permit
OF the revision OF the tariff on the re-
port OF the tariff board ,by;schedule with
out disturbing the entire law at one
time. FIe expects opposition to such a
rule, however, from the Senate.
President Taft is determined that the
bill permitting the federal incorpora-
ton of concerns doing an interstate
business shall be passed at the short
session which by law closes at noon on
on March 4 or next year.
1t is admitted here that the congress
sional leaders have warned the presi-
dent that the prospects of a republican
house are uncertain and for that reason,
if he hopes to keep the party pledges,
he may be forced to get all OF his need
ed legislation during the three month
session.

slider the contest Colonel Day, OF Smith
field, democratic district chairman. has
called the district committee to meet

able that the committee, which is COM
posed largely Of organization men.

Mr.. Maynard is persona non grata
with the organization. He voted for

ton and that was sin to be punished.

MAYOR GAYNOR.

Just - days after he had been shot
and desperately wounded on August g.,
Mayor Gaynor left St. Mary's Hospital
in Hobokcn and returned to Deep
Wells, his home at St. James, l.. /.
yesterday.
Before leaving the hospital the
mayor briefly addressed a number Of
orphans who had gathered in the hos
pital yard to bid him farewell, and on
his arrival at st. James he was heartily
cheered by his neighbors and friends.
The steps of the mayor were totter-
ing, a condition he, said, was due to
lack of exercise" but he declined as
sistance even though he found the
task of entering the automobile some
what arduous.
Arriving at st. James, the mayor at
tempted to spring into his automobile.
but he miscalculated his strength and
fell to his knees. After that Mrs.
Gaynor took his arm aud despite her
husbands protests assisted him to the
car.
I am content" said the mayor,
making his first public alluson to the
attempt to assassinate him. My
great hope is that the event will make
me better man and more patient and
just. /"
The mayor appeared anxious to say
more, but he restrained himself point
ed to his bandaged throat, and bis visi-
tors left him.

PRESIDENT TAFT,S APPEAL.

An urgent call for all republicans
to forget their differences after the
nominations of their party have been
made, and to unite in trying to elect
republican nominees, and thus insure
the further carrying out Of platform
promises is made in the letter which
President Taft has written for use in the
republican campaign text book. The
letter, addressed to Chairman William
B. Mckinley of the republican con-
gressional campaign committee, at
the headquarters in the st. James
building, New York, was given out
Saturday. 1t virtually takes the place
of party platform in the campaign
for Congress this fall, and it is evil
dent the president intends it for such.
In his appeal for harmony Mr.. Taft
saws: Differences within the party
were manifested in the two sessions Of
the present Congress, and yet never in
it's history has the republican party
passed and become responsible for as
much useful and progressive legisla-
ton. So, while issues will doubtless
arise between members Of a republi-
can majority as to the details OF fur
Their legislation, the party, as a whole,
will show itself in the future, as in the
past, practical and patriotic in subord-
mating Individual opinions in order 10
secure real progress. Hence it is inn
portant that after republican congress
sonal candidates have been duly and
fairly chosen, all republicans who be-
lieye in the party principles as declared
in its national platform Of 1908 should
give the candidates loyal and effective
support. If this is done, there will be
no doubt of return Of Il republican
majority.

three forest fires fighters are now
actually known to have been killed,
their deaths having been recorded in
official reports received today by As
sociate District Forester Greedy. Five

victims having been temporary en-
ployes. Three rangers are known to
have been injured.
Conditions are improved i'll all fire
districts and east of the divide all OF
the fires arc under control. Reports

MURDER MYSTERY.

The body OF Norval T. Harris, 81
years old, was found early yesterday
morning near Ninth and streets south
west Washington, with bullet wound
at the base Of his skull. No one is
known to have seen the fatal shot fired,
no one has been able to to find the
pistol from which the shot was fired,
no one can deduce motive, if suicide
was committed, no one can offer a
logical reason for murder.
A negro, who, discovering the dead
body, directed two white men to the
scene, is being sought, the belief being
that he knows something of the crime
and its commission. Also there is a
woman, or, it appears, several women
involved either directly or indirectly.
Several unintelligible kilograms and
fragments OF letters found in the dead
man s room add to the mystery OF the
affair.

The MARYLAND Election.

Baltimore, Aug. 29.-The first legal
lied primary to select candidates for
Congress ever held in Maryland will
occur tomorrow. The first test Of the
primary election law is severe one,
due to the number Of candidates in
many Of the districts. In the third
and fourth districts there are four dem
ocratic candidates, while the third dis
trict has two republicans contesting
the nomination, and the fourth dis
trirt three. In the fifth district two
democrats are engaged in the struggle
for the nomination. The sixth dis
trict brings ont the most interesting
struggle rs far as the republicans are
concerned, three candidates being in
the field, and the result is extremely
doubtful. The democrats also have
two candidates in this district. The
bitteresL fight is probably that in the
fifth district where Governor Crothers
aud State Senator A. p. German, ir.,
are battling for control. Senator Cor
man is backing J. Euos Ray, while
Governor Crothers is faxoring Charles
II. Stanley.

BIDS FAREWELL TO KOREA.

Upon the REIMBURSEMENT Of his power
and the turning over OF his country
and people to the sovereignty OF Japan,
Emperor Yi-Syek, OF Korea, now to be
known as Chosen, issued the following
farewell rescrlpt:
Notwithstanding our unworthiness,
we have succeeded in the arduous task
handed down by our ancestors. We
have endcavored up to the present to
follow modern administrative principles
but long-existing evils and deep rooted
weakness make it impossible for us to
effect reforms in a reasonable time.
Daily and nightly we were concerned,
but we're unable to rectfy these condi-
tons.
Therefore we feel constrained, be-
lieving il wise, to intrlIst the great task
to other hands. In order that efficient
measures may be taken and salts
factory result obtained, after serious
we have coded all our
sovereignty rights to Japan's emperor,
having implicit faith in him, and thus
insuring far Eastern peace and our
peoples welfare.
Il appeal to all my people not to
create commotion, but to appreciate
the situation and the trend Of events,
and to continue TO enjoy happiness by
their peaceful occupations and
obeying the new administration.
Ii taking this step We have not dis
regarded your interests; to the contrary.
we acted with the hope OF relieving 4
deplorabIc situation. Therefore, we
command you to take cognizance Of
orr wishes. -

The Euturity Races,

Saratoga, N. Y, Aug. 29.-With
the running of the Futurity on We'd

state for the year, and possibly for
some years to come. The future OF the
sport is precarious, and any statement
as to whether there is to be racing
next year, would be more guess work.
The sum of $50, 900 is the prize in the
futurity and while there will probably
be dozen starters, the race is con-
sidered to be between the fillv Bashti
and the colt Novelty, with Naushon
having a chance il the track should be
heavy. Bashti will have an advantage
in the weights, having been allotted
but lis pounds while Novelty must
carry l27. Shilling will ride Novelty,
Garner will have the leg up on Bashti,
and Musgrave is coming from Canada
to pilot Naushon.

The discussion during Il recent meet
ing OF doctors in Washington showed
how seriously the situation is in regard
to the infantile paralysis epidemic in
that city, and, incidentally, how ready
the doctors are to admit they are hope
lessly at sea. In the meantime some
Washington doctors are criticising the
health officer for giving publicity TO
the state Of the present epidemic.
Others say he had nothing to do with
giving it publicity. The latter admit,
however, that the public is alarmed and
that something must be done to stop
the epidemic. Of course, with some
doctors, it is treason for laymen TO
criticize them, but all the same it can
be stated that the world has too far adj
vanced for the public to be kept in
ignorance OF an epidemic that is pre-
vailing in their midst

ALEXANDRIA, VA.
MONDAY EVENING, AUG.

THAT Mr.. Roosevelt in his insane de.
sire for notoriety lays himself wide
open to just criticism is shown by the
following dispatch from Cheyenne,
Wyoming:
Despite the greeting; Pm here to
see what you fellows can do on the
hurricane deck Of 4 broncho," which
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt handed out
to the bunch Of cowboys and horse
wranglers gathered about him, the for
mer presidents reception here Satur-
day was not what his admirers had
hoped. He was the chief performer at
a mixture OF professional aud real
wild west" with the emphasis on the
professional. Most OF the cowboys
and cowgirls who whoopcd ut the APP
pearance OF the colonel may be seen AT
Madison Square Garden the coming
winter at so cents, rs cents and 81 i
seat. Cheyenne, as Il representative
Wild West town, must be wiped off the
map. The city could be set down IN
the midst Of New England without
a Jar. Outside of the character OF
the pictures in the saloons and The
disturbances raised at night by the
hangers-on at the large military post OF
Fort Russell, nothing is left to dis
tinguish this small city from amy one
of similar size in the east. The former
president was constantly acclaimed on
bis various appearances in the city, but
the cheers we're only about one-fi(th rs
hearty as greeted any OF the races be
tween the various contestants at the
frontier games that had been held dur
ing the week. The. difference III the
applause was marked when, after the
colonel had taken spectacular ride
around the track before the 10000
spectators, four girls started on u pony
race around the track. The colonel
had been cheered, but real roar
greeted the girls. Several residents Of
the city explained that, while the
westerners like Roosevelt, they are
not at all sure that they like the con
servation policy he has adopted, be-
lieving it would be better to let them
own the land than to let it be burned
by forest fires while held by the gov
eminent.

A MEMBER OF the republican state
committee said in Richmond q few
days ago that that committee has de-
cided that there shall be II candidate
for Congress in each OF the ten districts
of Virginia this year, and the commit
tee has also announced that deter
mined effort will be made to elect them
in the general election this fall. J" This
is all buster and was known to be
when the committeeman made this
statement. 1t is known positively that
in at least two of the districts, the First
and the Eighth, there will be no rcpub-
lican candidate and this will probably
be the case in other districts. The re-
publicans will concentrate all their
efforts in the Fifth and Ninth districts,
with little chance OF carrying the form
er and strong probability OF loosing the
latter. The republicans are whistling
