Turning to Taft

While President Taft is in the
west the Republicans of the east
are standing up to be counted on
his side. In their state convention
the Republicans OF New Jersey
had this to say:
I'VE indorse the calm. judicial
attitude of President Taft in the
face of unreasonable clamor for
hasty legislation and ill-advised rem
edies. and we approve his deter
mination to apply business prin-
ciples in the treatment of the
problems of the day.
The time has come to call n
halt, not upon true reform. but
upon that political demagoguery
which. under the cloak of the cry
of reform. seeks political prefer
ment. and decries honest business.
A national crisis is impending. We
need real craftsmanship. less talk.
and more Intelligent action"
The Republicans of Massachus-
sets were no less emphatic in their
endorsement of the president:
I'VE heartily endorse the ad-
inistration of President Taft. who.
without being politician. has
steadily grown in the confidence
and affection of the people and has
exercised in his office administrative

&. G. Freshmen 3. Lamar savages q

The game last Saturday between
the freshman team of Colorado Col
lege and the Lamar Savages was
one of the best ever seen in this
section. The teams were evenly
matched, the former being the
faster. while the Savages were the
stronger. II was the superior train
ing received by the freshmen in
their games with the stronger col
lege teams that enabled them to
put over their only score and win
the game. This score came early
in the first quarter after the Saw
ages had carried the ball well down
the field on straight line bucking.
and lost it in the c. C. territory.
The freshmen made several tries
at the Savage line and completely
failed; and then like flash came
the forward pass to Capt. Cheese
and he was off on the most sem
sational run ever made ON the
football field in Lamar. 1t was
a so yard run through and around
all opposition and was easily the
feature of the day as 1t was also
the means of making the only

kick a goal from 1t and the scoring
was over for the game.
Throughout the balance of the
game the Lamar boys kept the ball
in the G. C. territory all the time.
and half dozen times were with
in a few yards of the goal but never
could quite get it over. They lost
the ball once within six inches of
the goal lines.
The Savages look as strong as
ever this year and should win the
state high school championship.
We won't be satisfied with any
thing hess. They are as heavy as
last year with the exception of
Paul Ly We're and he makes up
in speed and grit for about ton
of weight. so there is every reason
to expect them with the fine sched-
ule they have to develop much
faster team than the one OF last
year. and that was almost equal to
n championship.
Capt. Strong and all the boys
on the team played a strong snap
py game and little more conf
dence ahead of the game would
have carried them through as win
ners. They will play their first
regular game Saturday here with
the La Junta team. which Ia strong
enough this year to give them
good scrap. and the game will be
well worth seeing
The c. G. freshmen have a
splendid team and play clean
strong game and there are several
OF them that will be all stars In
few years. The grounds should be
roped off so that the crowd is
kept from the field and the chain
not obscured as 1t was on several
occasions last Saturday. 1t leads
to much confusion and mlsunder-
standing.

Revenge Right Of the Bat.

A lot has been written about the
greed and avarice of theatrical man
ayers and producers, but the accusa-
lions are often disproved. The pro-
ducers are out to get all the money
they can, but they are frequently
swayed by other motives.
One of the best-known managers
in New York put on a play last year
and it was a success; such a fatter'
ing success that it's author was much
elated, not to say pulled up. But he
nursed as grievances some of the
changes the manager had made IN the
play.

the producer, you would be the great

New York. Feb. 2.-The mysterious
disappearance of the young heiress,
Miss Dorothy Arnold, from her fathers
home, 10S West Seventy ninth street,
has caused a nation wide sensation.
Her father, Francis r. Arnold, per-
fume importer, has spent thousands Of
dollars searching for her since she was
last seen, on Monday, Dec. IL. A re-
ward OF $1,000 is now offered by the
father for the first accurate news Of
Miss Arnold's present abode or infor-
nation leading thereto. Through all
the family insists that there never was
the slightest quarrel between the
mother and daughter or between Doro-
thy and any member of the household,
yet it is rumored among people who
are somewhat acquainted with the
family affairs that Dorothy was not as
happy as she might have been. Stories
are afoat that Miss Arnold was very
friendly with foreigner of excellent
If not noble family, and it is known
that when her private desk was
searched subsequent to her disappear
ance a little bundle of letters was
found. indicating that she had carried
on for some time clandestfne CORE
spondence with a man who is now
abroad. The detectives who were en-
ployed by Francis P. Caravan and John
S. Keith, as counsel to the family,
were Immediately notified of this dis
covery, and the records Of every out
going steamer from the date Of Miss
Arnold's vanishing were carefully
searched. Moreover, the wireless was
called into service. and messages were
sent to every steamship SO equipped
asking if Miss Arnold was aboard and
giving a description Of her.
