Those who heartily enjoy the old
plantation songs Of the south, for
once, ut least, had their fill of that
kind Of music which revives in the
hearts Of those who have been in
the south memories Of the genuine
old fashioned negro camp meeting
on the edge OF the cane brakes.
Besides these quaint melodies
there were classics rendered as
solos, duets, etc. The program
throughout was a good one and
well rendered in every detail, and
with just enough humor in it to

SHIFTING THE SCENES

The fortnight passing has dis
closed some curious political events.
1t is evident that behind the scenes
of big politics the stage hands are
getting up the canvass for a big
set "a kind of transformation
scene. The big bedizened news
papers maintained BADLY for the
guilty JOY of high finance are pre-
pairing to ditch President Taft.
The New York Sun which shines
in the reflected glory of Morgan
has been telling the truth about
the austere funeral character of
the Taft meetings and editorially
the Sun and other organs of its
class have been clawing the presi-
dent politely yet viciously. The
interview with Vice President
Sherman in which he is quoted as
saying that the California election
indicates how far Taft is out of
sympathy with the people, is in
teresting. 1t is the follow-up cir
cular of the Wall Street newspaper
campaign. Wall Street sees that
Taft cannot win. Wall Street fears
Wilson. Big business will dump
Taft mercilessly. 1t seems to fear
that Taft's weakness means the
success Of La Toilette unless some
thing is done to outplay the La
Toilette sentiment What the
game is, no one this side of the
curtain knows. But the scene
shutters are busy.
Perhaps a new candidate will
appear, some fine unimpeachable,
digni6ed candidate like Seth Low.
President Butler of Columbia, SEN
ator Lodge or Senator Burton of
Ohio. Big business could steal
the south from Taft and Hitchcock
getting southern convention del
egates from Hitchcock through the
southern railroads owned by the
men who are jabbing the president
in their newspapers be like
taking candy from blind child.
With the south gone, Taft's re-
nomination will be impossible. La
Toilette will carry the west Moth
ing can stop that. Wall Street
knows it. Wall Streets feet are
so cold that its toes clink! That's
why it is dumping Taft and pre-
pairing for some new political man
euver. La Toilette sentiment is
growing. The Taft trip has proved
that he cannot regain the peoples
contidence-that he does not know
their language, that he cannot hold
their allegiance. Something must
be done to stop La Follette's rise
as Taft sinks. Something will be
done. The scurrying feet of the
stage hands behind the curtain
foretell coming events. The peo-
pie will watch the rising curtain
on the next act with interest and
deep concern: for it is the drama
of popular rights. The act closing
is most lamentable comedy. The
next act will reveal the plot.-Wil-
liam Allen White.

On Tuesday of next week New
Mexico will hold its first state
election. The campaign just clos
ing, though it has been brief,
scarcely extending over thirty days,
has been the fercest ever waged,
and as election day draws near it
is becoming bitter. There will be
n fusion by the democrats and
progressive republicans.

Rising from voting strength
of 1000 a few months ago, to 15,-

garded as amazing. In the last
election, Mayor Alexander received
an overwhelming majority.
The campaign from now on be-
tween Hartman and Alexander
will be holly contested. Alexan-
der is the republican candidate and
is backed by Good Government
league.
Colorado again wins fame for
itself by capturing the highest
honors at the New York Land
show. In competition with all
other beet growing sections of the
country, it remained for a Greeley
boy to raise the sugar beets which
won the 81 600 loving cup which
was put up as the first prize. Colo

LA TOILETTE CLASHES
With LUMBER DEALER
RECIPROCITY HEARING MARKED
BY EXCEEDINGLY BITTER
PERSONAL COLLOQUY

Washington, May, 19.-Following
heated colloquy between Senator
LaFollette and Leonard Bronson, of
the National Lumber Manufacturers
association, at today's Canadian reci-
procity hearing, a declaration by Bron-
son that the conservation policy of
Roosevelt and Pinchot worked for the
benefit of the lumber trust and forced
up the price of lumber, was stricken
from the record. Bronson had also
declared that the withdrawal by the
government of large tracts of timber
lands was the chief cause of high
prices of lumber.
Mr.. LaFollette demanded to know
what authority Bronson had for these
assertions. This, Bronson refused to
explain and after series of questions
by LaFollette both the accusations
and the ensuing colloquy were ex-
plunged from the record on motion of

PRINCETON REGATTA
LAKE CARNEGIE TOMORROW TO
BE SCENE OF TRIANGULAR
ROWING EVENT

Princeton, N. j., May 19.-Lovers
of aquatic sports are displaying keen
interest in the intercollegiate regatta
to be rowed here on Lake Carnegie
tomorrow. The race will be trian-
gular affair.", with the varsity crews
OF Yale, CornaR and Princeton as
the contestants. It will be the first
intercollegiate rowing event in which
Princeton has taken part since 1884,
also the first meeting of the Yale and
Cornell crews in many years. The
course over which the race will be
rowed is only one and three-quarter
miles, which is regarded as an ad-
vantage to the Princeton oarsmen, as
they have trained for this distance
only, while Yale and Cornell have had
to train for the four mile races which
they will row later on at New
London and Ponghkeepsie.

conclusion of the trial of Virgins.
Should Virgins be convicted the two
likely will be sentenced at the same
time. 1t is thought to be likely that
sentence will be imposed before the
close of the term, when the majority
of those convicted will be melted out
their punishment. Virgins trial like
ly will continue for several days.
Some surprise was occasioned by
Virgins persistency in sticking to
his plea of not guilty. 1t was thought
he would reconsider his action of yes
terday and change his plea today. A
large number of spectators were in

TO DEBATE STATEHOOD
TILL NEXT TUESDAY
so MANY WISH TO TALK ON SUB.
JECT, HOUSE EXTENDS TIME
FOR DISCUSSION

Washington, May 19.-The desire
of so many members to speak on the
statehood resolution, admitting Ari-
zona and New Mexico, caused demo
cratic leaders to change their plans
for ending the debate and rushing the
bill to passage today and the discus.
sion will continue until next Tuesday.
Floor leaders of the majority had
hoped to pass the bill before today's
adjournment, but it was not deemed
wise to cut off debate as long as so
many members on each side had pre-.
pared arguments which they wished
to deliver.
Accordingly an agreement was at
tanned by Representative Flood to
continue the debate until next Tues
day, when the resolution will be call
ed up for passage.
The senate was not in session to-
day.
'It was a usurpation of power on
the part of the Supreme Court of the
United States to put the word "rea-
sonable" into the antitrust law after
congress had refused to so amend
the law" declared Representative
Booher of Missouri, in discussing the
New Mexico and Arizona statehood
resolution. He said he did not want
to criticize the court, but he agreed
with Justice Harlan and he had
right to express his individual opi1-
ion. Asked whether he would favor
the recall of the three democratic
judges who Joined in the opinion II
the power to recall applied to the SUI
preme court, Mr.. Booher said he
would not, as he trusted to the wis
dom of these men to correct mis-
take as soon as they had the oppor-
tunity. ~

PREPARES TO VISIT CAPITAL
ANNOUNCES HE WILL LEAVE
JUAREz EITHER TOMORROW
OR SUNDAY FOR SOUTH
HEARS FROM DIAz DIRECT
RECEIPT OF PERSONAL MESSAGE
BY THE REBEL LEADER FROM
PRESIDENT DIsPELs DOUBT

Juarez, Mex, May 19.-'I am going
to Mexico City. l have confidence in
the federal government. Rumors that
some one may do me personal harm
are to me of no consequence" In
this manner Francisco l. Madero, Jr.,
dismissed the report from Mexico
City this morning that rumors were
in circulation that an attempt would
be made on his life when he arrived
at the capital.
"The federal government wants to
make peace with me-" continued Ma
dero. IF by any unfortunate occur
renee, my life should be taken, an
archy would follow in Mexico. cam
not for a moment take such report
seriously"
Unless the unforeseen happens,
therefore, Madero accompanied by his
personal staff, may leave for the capi-
tai either tomorrow or the day after.
1t developed today that, for the first
time since the revolution started,
President Diaz had held direct com
munication with the revolutionary
leader. Diaz last night wired his per-
sonal assurances to Madero of his in
tention to retire. "The others points
can be settled by you and Judge Car
baial." the message said.
The message made deep impress
sion about revolutionary headquarters.
Whatever skepticism has existed as
to the real intentions of Diaz, disap-
peared when the nature of his direct
communication became known.
1t was decided at 1 o'clock this af-
ternoon that Madero would not enter
Mexico City until Minister De La Bar.
ra became provisional president. Sc
nor Madero will leave here within a
day or two for Monterey, or some
point in the state of Coahuila, there
to await developments at the capital.
Assurances were received by the in.
surrectos this afternoon that they
could name six members of the new
cabinet, Minister De La Barra to
name a sub-secretary of foreign rela
tions and minister of war.

Taft believes the agreement should so

line no matter what republican lead
