Hartford, April 1S-The House to-
day rejected a report providing for
an appropriation OF 500 to meet a

Civil Common Pleas court. Therefore
no additional appropriation will be re-

CHARLIE SAYS
 ALL |S WELL
Brother of President Cites History to Prove T h a t Present Status of Party is All That Anyone Could Wish

CINCINNATI ohio. Dec. 1.-The following editorial in the Times Star. of this city. has attracted much at tention. IL is all the more significant because the paper k owned by Charles r Taft. brother of the president The editorial is as follows:
 The political atmosphere is full of talk just now to the effect that the president will be renominated. but cannot be reelected: that he has lost popularity: that his party is hopeless ly divided. and that he cannot bring il together. While the majority of the rational committee recently assembled in Was hirgton were friendly to Mi raft it is said that they displayed Ep enthusiasm.
 Those unfamiliar with American history are apt to imagine that such talk and such conditions never existed before, and that a president about whom such things can be said in De- cember cannot possibly be reelected in November
 It happens that American history is full Of examples to the contrary The case of Roosevelt in 1904 iS in point All during his first term there Was talk about some other man to leaI the republican ticket in 1908. Mark Hanna at one time loomed very large not only in the public mind. but in the mind of MT. Roosevelt himself.
 When the convention met all the correspondents spoke of the striking lack of enthusiasm among the dele gates. The party was taking it's dose. they said Roosevelt had to be renom- mated, but nobody was glad of it IT was not until the landslide of the following November that the wise men suddenly awakened to the fact that Roosevelt was tremendously popular
 The ebbing fortunes of Abraham Lincoln during the spring and summer preceding the election of 1864 show how unreliable are prognoStications ol gloom uttered six or even three months before national election. NIT. Lincoln is already beaten" wrote Horace Greeley on August IS We must have another ticket to save us from utter overthrow"
 There have been many occasions iu American history when it seemed that a strong. pure-minded. patriotic pres ident was hopelessly discredited be- fore the people during his first term. Much fewer have been the occasions when such president has been turn cd down by the people when it came to the final test of national con vention.

 "I approve the presidents plan of levying duties on wool by single specific duty based on the secured pound with all Wools now classified as first and second thrown together with one rate: and the third class, or cor pet wool. at another and lower rate. l will support a single rate duty based on the secured content of wool of the first and second class of 70 cents pound. l am confident the wool growers would receive as much protection as they are now receiving based upon IT cents btl b'hllN iit '-.' grease. or the supposed protection of 33 cents each secured pound
 The rate of duty on carpet W"oIs should be considered more from the revenue basis than the protective one In my opinion it ought to be ten cents a pound secured content l would like the rates high enough on rags and low grades of shoddy to prohibit their importation. as We have enough class adulterants produced in this country
