The victim is William Carter, of Port De-
posite, and his assailant an alien employ.
in gang building a stone road between
Fair Hill and the Delaware State line.
Sunday evening the men were drinking
beer in woods, when a quarrel arose be-
tween Cotter and his assailaDt. The for.
eiguer ripped out a revolver and shot Car.
ter in the head and shoulder. The injured
man was later taken to Union Hospital at
Eikton. His condition is critical.
Soon after the shooting Sheriff McAllis-
ter, George Potts and Alfred Taylor went
to the scene in the automobile. One of the
men in the crowd was noticed getting
away and Sheriff McAlIister was then
told that be was the man who did the
shooting. The official and his assistants
started in pursuit, chasing him a mile
through the woods aud over fields, firing
at least % times at the fleeing man. At
one time, they we're within l5 feet Of the
fugitive, but he finally escaped.

KNIVES OUT FOR TAFT

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 23.-While
the iusurgent Republicans working from
two headquarters, one the Progressive Re
publican League-or Jonathan Bourne's
Salvation Army, as Senator Depew chris.
tened the organization-and the other
the LaFollette headquarters, are reach.
ing ], ZOO, 600 Republican voters through
the mails with anti-Taft literature, Presi
dent Taft is receiving scant encourage
ment from the standpatters.
Twenty thousands dollars is said to be
the cost to date of the mail propagands of
the La Toilette boom, the financial back
ers OF which are commonly reported to be
Charles ]. Crane, of Chicago, who was
permitted by the Taft Administration to
get as far as San Francisco as Minister to
China; Rudolph Spreckels, OF San Fran.

ment of the Taft Administration, stand
patter occasionally deity slips the knife
under the Presidential fifth rib.
The latest exhibition of this character
was Vice President Sherman's comment
on the action of the California people in
adopting the recall by an overwhelming
vote at the very moment when President
Taft was entering the State. Mr.. Sherman
points out that inasmuch as President
Taft's veto message on the recall in the
Arizonia Constitution is good State pa
per there must be other reasons why the
people of California greeted his arrival in
that State with an overwhelming vote in
favor OF the recall, and he cannot help
observing that the fact ''that his (Mr.
Tafte) ideas we're not accepted by the
people OF California shows marked disaf.

Vice President Sherman had chopped
that California was solidIy for President
TAFT and all of his ideas, but this recent
action gives MS new light" be says and
adds that it "presages trouble in the next
campaign
President Vice Sherman's contribution
to the campaign literature of the day is a

that are more forcibly expressed anony-
mounsly by standpat Republicans, and
that are made the basis for the reports
that are constantly going out of Washing.
ton that the Teactionaries in the party are
getting ready to ditch the President in
favor of some candidate who can unite the
two factions of the party.
In this connection friends of former |
President Roosevelt are pretending to tell |
with certainty where the former President |
will land in the coming campaign. They |
say that Colonel Roosevelt believes moth |
ing can prevent the denomination of Pre-. |
sident Taft if he makes an effort to get it,
and they expect the Colonel to make a |
lew perfunctory and general utterances in
behalf of the party whoever its nominee.
But it is asserted that he will not be in
The firing line, and that he will not in
1912, as in 1908, undertake to "put some
ginger in the campaign" for bis former
Orotege.

In COLD STORAGE

Assemblyman Brennans author OF New
York's Brennan cold storage law, said the
other day:
'A recent examination of the cold.stor-
age plants in New York City showed
that in twelve storage houses alone there
we're stored 100000 pounds of poultry
and meat; 4 800, 900 pounds of fish, 1000,
600 pounds of cheese; 6, ,000, 900 pounds OF
butter, r,and 500, 600 cases of eggs.
"This food should is labeled as what
it is. 1t shouldn't be sold to the public
as fresh food at the price OF fresh food.
For it isn't fresh food, and, though it
looks all right its taste is all wrong-ex.
cept to such people as are blessed with
the palate of Jim Jimison.
"Jim Jimison," Mr.. Brennan explained
"Was hard drinker up Ithaca way. One
evening Jim stopped at the tavern for a
dram, tossed it off, and departed calmly;
but after be was gone the tavern keeper
discovered that in place of applejack, he
had given Jim drink of sulphuric acid
bottle that was kept to clean the verdigris
off the brass taps.
"The tavern keeper couldn't sleep that
night, but the next morning, to his IN.
speakable relief Jim dropped in for anoth-
er dram:before breakfast, apparently none
the worse for his dose poison.
'tJim, said the tavern keeper, what did
you think of that applejack l sold you
last nightP
"Oh, it was fine stuff, said Jim; good
warmin' stuff. 1t bad one fault. Every
time l coughed it set my whiskers on
fire.
