ROOSEVELT PLEASED WITH
PRESIDENTS STATEMENT
Says New York Situation Admits
of No Compromise

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, Aug. 22-Col.
Roosevelt, after reading the full text
of President Tafts letter issued the fol-
lowing formal statement:
II am very glad to see President
Taft's statement, and am pleased with
1t.
Before the meeting of the state
committee I had repeatedly expressed
to various leaders not merely my will
ingness but my desire to see them.
Since the meeting 1 have not thought
there was any particular object In
meeting them, as, owing to their ac-
tion, the situation had become such as
to admit of no compromise and l mad
nothing to add to what 1 had already
said. l may add that 1 have not
changed my mind now.
my position is perfectly definite and
1 have nothing to change in 1t. l
had never desired the Craftsmanship
and consented to have my name con-
sidered only on condition that, In plat
form and candidate alike, the party
should endeavor to achieve success in
the only way worth trying. That is, by
not deceiving, by making it evident
that the Republican party of the state
of New York intends in good faith to
serve the interests of all the people OF
the state.
Representative NichSlas Longworth,
the colonel's son-in-law, arrived at
Sycamore about noon and spent the
afternoon in earnest talk with Col.
Roosevelt He insisted he was not the
bearer of any message from the presi-
dent.
Collector Loeb later telephoned from
New York the contents of the presi-
dents letter. The colonel was greatly
pleased to hear that Sherman, Barnes,
Woodruff, Aldridge and company" had
been repudiated.
When the full text of the letter ar
rived the colonel answered briefly but
unhesitatingly all questions upon pass
ages that seemed to need explanation.
ANGRY AT SHERMAN
When asked if Mr.. Sherman had
carried out his agreement with Presi-
dent Taft to confer with Mr.. Roosevelt,
or If he had been invited to do so, the
colonel replied he had received writ
ten request for such a conference dat
ed before the meeting of the state com
mittee, but not at hand until after the
meeting. He had replied to Mr.. Sher-
mans letter that in view of the action
of the committee a later conference
seemed unnecessary.
When President Taft's statement
that no other name than Senator Roots
had been mentioned to him as a pos
sible candidate in opposition, was call
ed to the coloners attention, ne was
asked if he had ever heard Senator
Roots name in that connection before.
mo" he answered with emphasis,
and went on with the letter.
Representative Longworth. he said,
had endeavored, as he had promised
the president, to bring about a con-
ference with Mr. Sherman.
The colonel had reminded him, as he
had told Mr.. Sherman himself, that
it was too late.
Colonel Roosevelt has concluded all
arrangements to leave here tomorrow
morning at o'clock for New York In
New York city he will take 1880
a, m. train for the west.

QUARRY LAKE VANISHES
TO APPEAR IN MEADOW

YORK, Pa, Aug. 22,-The mysteri~
Gus disappearance of water from the
abandoned Feigle ore bank, near ia
cobus, is attracting attention. In the
course of years springs and the rains
had made Of the quarry an artificial
lake more than 40 feet deep, but re-
Gently it has been noticed that this
water is vanishing at a rate of about
six inches a day. The water Is still 80
feet deep, but at the present rate of
disappearance the hole will soon be
dry
At the same time a meadow some
distance away has been found to be
continually water soaked, while sur
rounding land is dry, and it is sup
posed that in some way the quarry is
emptying it's contents into the meadow
through an underground channel.

Idaho Leader: The game warden
ran in an old maid over in Sho-
shone for hunting without a IL
cense. 1t was proven that she
hunted for man for thirty-seven
years without a license. She put
in the plea that she was willing to
pay for a license, but that Harry
Anderson wouldn't issue one UNI
less she named the party Of the
second part. She named an old
bach OF the town and then the
clerk was 80 unreasonable that ne
wanted the old bach's signature to
the application. The old bach re-
fused to sign and called her old
hen. The court then found the
old bach guilty of using fowl Ian
guage, the clerk was found guilty
of conspiring to form u merger,
the game warden was fined ten
dollars on complaint OF the old
bach for an attempt to ensnare wild
game out Of season, then the old
maid had the warden arrested and
fined for false imprisonment on the
plea that the open season for old

SATURDAY. JAN. Is, 1910
Nineteen Hundred and Ten

Our future is made by purpose
and by chance. Daily we pass
into an undiscovered country.
Daily We try in vain to guess what
that undiscovered country holds;
what of allurement, what of dread.
1t is only in fable that men or
witches look into the seeds of time,
and say which grain will grow; or
read the book of fate, and see the
continent melt into the sch. Shakes
peare never wearied of the subject,
the fascination Of the unknown,
and how unknown indeed it is. So
much does the unexpected weigh,
that wise man can see in definite
prophecy hut little iuther than a
fool. The advantage of swisdom is
not in forecast, but living wisely
now prepares for living wisely to
the end:
Her ways are ways OF pleasant
ness, and all her paths are peace.
We can notspenetrate the unseen,
but we can greet it with cheer.
Better than that, we can welcome
it with readiness and understand
ing. There is enough. at least,
for inspiration, in the saying Of
old Sam Johnson, that the future
ia purchased by the present. II
is true sufficiently to make effort
hope, and faith the better course
We know the world, with all it,
wo, grows happier; with all it,
ignorance, more enlighted; with al
its error, more virtuous and just
and in this painful, Glow. ant
steady progress we know that each
of us can help, One contributes
policy, invention, knowledge; an
other, barred these great factors
can bring at least iortitude, Joy, o.
adnegation. To none is denied
THAT best portion of a goot

Seattle, Wn. The annual sta It's
tics now being reported, indicate
that all Northwest cities and towns
took important steps forward dur
ing the year 1909. One OF the best
barometers Of business activity is
the post office receipts and in
Washington, Uncle Sam got his
share of enhanced trade volume.
AS compared with 1908, the 1909
reports show the following gains:
Aberdeen % percent; Seattle 81 per
cent, Tacoma 10 percent; Spokane
8 2-5 percent. The notable thing
is that no Office heard from, has
reported loss. The receipts of the
Washington State Land Office
were $1,S65,970 in 1909, an in
crease III percent. The fishing
products of the state amounted to
S13,0O0,00O last year, breaking all
previous records. These instances
give some idea of the prosperity OF
theNorthwest and argue eloquent
ly TOR what the future has in store.
In the last FIVE years, the number
of farms in the Northwest has
doubled, until today there are I'll,
600, which yielded products in
1909 having a total value of $404,
100000. The various states stand
as follows; Oregon $4,000 farms;
Washington $4,000 farms; Idaho
10000 farms; Montana 10000
farms. There are millions of acres
OF land idle now that could be put
under cultivation on q revenue
basis. With the back to the land
tendencies of the present day, it is
certain that the number OF farms
in the Northwest will continue to
increase, for many years to como.

Becoming Innovation That Bids Fair
to Retain Popularity for Some
- Time.

One Of the features for the hats for
formal wear is the round piece OF lace
that is attached to the inside Of a
large shape just as bandeau Is used.
It falls in soft folds over the hair and
looks quite like the lacy edge of-saVe
the mark!-a breakfast cap. But you
have no idea of the becomingness OF
this innovation. Pretty features APP
pear more lovely under the softening
halo Of tulle or lace, and other faces
are vastly improved by the medium be-
tween them and the felt or satin crown
Of large hat.
Black, white or metallic lace Is used
for this frill that is arousing comment.
Tiny rosebuds of narrow ribbon or
small silk flowers are worked into the
lace, lessening the contrast and harmo-
MIXING with the plumes or lace trim
ming on the outside of the chapeau.
The rufie is about two inches wide. 1t
is attached before the lining Is adjust
ed, although a few milliners have ar
ranged for a change of lace by series
Of loops and buttons.
How did this originate? Why, prob
ably from the fancy turban headdress
Of lace trimmed with flowers that
Parisiennes wore in the summer In
evenings. At all events, sustained by
the knowledge that hat with this in
ner frill was awarded first prize at the
great exhibition of chapeaux, 1t comes
as something new and bids fair to be
adopted.
