PRESIDENT COMES TO
MONTANA.

President Tafts coming trip through
the west and tho Pacific coast practi-
cally were completed today. The jour-
ned will be almost as extensive as
that taken by the president on his ia

1909. when he travelled more than
$4,000 miles and visited 33 states.
He will break ground for the PAN
anna canal exposition at San Fran

Mount Rainiers slope.
According to the present arrange
ment the president VIII be gone six
weeks The republican leaders look
upon the trip as the most important
politically that the president has
mapped out since he entered the White
House. He will go through all the
states in the west In which they rec
ognize the domination of the progress
sive republicans, who are counted on
to oppose his denomination next year
With adjournment of congress assured
for this week, the president feels that
