they go daily to see the Pope when
he is not well. The other day a~close

addressed their brother. One replied
that when others were present they
used the formal term your Holiness,
but when they were alone they called
Giuseppe and sometimes Beppo or

TAFT CAN NOT
DEFEAT wilson
Victor Murdoch Says Nomination OF
Princetonian Means Great
Victory.

The following is an editorial from
The Sioux City Qowaj Tribune:
Victor Murdoch, of Kansas, the pi-
oneer progressive Republican of the
house. telle The Tribune's Washington
correspondent very frankly that in his
Judgment President Taft can not be
re elected if Woodrow Wilson is nomi-
mated by the Democrats. He classes
Yen Iowa, where he has been deliver
. chautauqua addresses, as debata-
! lie GROUND in a contest between Taft
I'd Wilson.
Mir. Murdock's opinion is given with
/ 0,t bitterness. He intimates no in
IGNITION on his part of refusing to sup
port Mr. Taft should he receive the
domination. He speaks merely as
the middle West, and gives his calm
judgment of the political situation as
it is. not as he would like It to be.
1t is superfuous to recount in de-
tail the reasons for the latent feeling
of Western hostility to the president
Those reasons are written large in the
record of the Taft administration of
the last two years and a half and the
president, by avowing his purpose to
veto practically all the progressive
legislation passed at the present SEES
sion of congress threatens to add to
them. The real point is, however, that
the hostility exists. and that men like
Mr.. Murdoch know it exists. That is
why they are on the houstops warn
ing their party of the danger that
threatens it, and why they are con
WINGED that the party ought to nomi
nate some other man.

like, and my auntie wants me to
come stay with her, and she is the
only lady l ever liked. Shall
go? CLAM.

sible enough to think you are too
young, dear, for | feel you will

got there | would go to school If
had to go at night. Every boy

Dear Miss Grey: l am a boy OF
sixteen, a freshman in the High
school, About a month ago | met
girl, and liked her. Several
times | asked her to go out with
me, but she refused, but l think
she cares for me because she is
friendly with me. Last week she
left school, and l can't see her any
more, and / don't want to give her
up. What shall l do, Miss Grey?
HOPEFUL.
Ans.-Don't be fool boy. This
"don't-want-to-give-her-up" fever
loves to pick out boys of your age
on which to vent its spleen. When
you get out of yourself. and look
back ON this foolishness, you will
see that you could not give her up
when you never had her. This
girl is evidently sensible enough
to spot you as one of the victims
of the prevelant youthful fever,
and does not care to catch 1t. For
she knows she cannot pay the
right attention to her studies while
under it's spell. Now, if you
think, after butting your head a
few times against a brick wall
that you can be sensible, get q
crowd of young people to go to Q
good afternoon matinee, and in
wife her to join the crowd. But
don't be fool enough to single heI
out, and never leave her side a
moment. Go in a crowd and have
a good time.
