BE A BOOSTER.

Do you know there's lots O. people
Settin round in every town,
Growlin' like a broody chicken,
Knockin' every good thing down?
Don't you be that kind O. cattle,
Cause they amt no use on earth,
You Just be a booster rooster,
Crow an boost for all you're
worth
II your town needs boostin', boost

Don't hold back to wait and see
If some other fellows willin'-
Sail right in, the country's free.
No ones got mortgage on 1t,
It's Just yours as much as his,
If your town is shy on boosters,
You get in the boostin' biz
If things just don seem to suit you,
And the world goes kinder wrong,
What's the matter with boostin'
Just to help the thing along.
Then If things should stop a-goin'
We'd be in a sorry plight;
You just keep that horn a-blowin'-
Boost 'er up with all your might,
If you know some feller's failin's,
Just ferget 'em, cause you know
That same feller't got some good

THE POPULATION CENTRE.

The Census Bureau announces that
the centre of population of the Unit
ed States has moved westward 81
miles and northward seven-tenths of
mile, which brings it to point "A
miles south of Unionville, in Monroe
county, Ind. OF course, it is perfect
ly possible that the So-called centre

Inhabitants; the term merely signi-
fies the intersection of lines latitude
nally and longitudinally halving the
entire population of the country, ex-
elusive of Alaska and our insular
possessions. The geographical CEN
tre of the United States, in Northern
Kansas, is some $50 miles west of
the centre of population.
1t is interesting to note how the
westward trend of the population
since 1890, the date of the first CEN
sus, has steadily confirmed Bishop
Berkeley's dictum and made it plain
that many pioneers have followed
the counsel of Horace Greeley. In
1890 the centre was a few miles
east of Baltimore; ten years later
it had moved to point 20 miles
west of that city, and by 1910 1t
was some 80 miles northwest OF
Washington. In 1850 it was ap-
proximately 20 miles to the south
east of Parkersburg, w. Va, which
is about as far south as it has ever
been. It's "farthest north seems To
have been it's location at the time
of the first census, and it is interest
ing to note that as it moved west
ward it still continued to cling very
closely to the seth parallel of lati'
tude. Between 1850 and 1860 il
travelled a distance of very nearly
70 miles, so that its progress by the
latest decennial reckoning is moi
the longest; nevertheless, owing tt
the recent rapid development of the
Pacific and the Southwestern States
the progress from 1900 to 1910 was
more than twice that of the pre-
ceding decade-namely, IA miles.
The movement of the centre o.
population proves the courageous
initiative of the native born, as wei
as demonstrating the trend of Euro
pean immigration in quest of arabic
areas. Edmund Burke on the ev'
of the Revolution was quite righ
in his assertion that nothing coulC
check the inclination of the Ameri
can colonists to overflow the bar
riers of the Alleghenies into tn,
great unpeopled Western wilderness
The charted lines showing the move
ment of the population of this coun
try of magnificent distances are elo
quent of the indomitable spirit of tn
pioneers transmitted from the fore
fathers to the ambitious enterprise
of their present-day descendants

NO CONSPIRACY
Of INSURGENTS
AGAINST TAFT
,contlnued from First Page,
SUMMER
Alexandria Bay. N. Y.

insurgents in the last Congress over
the railroad bill, which was drafted by
Wickersham and
sent to Congress by the President with
the implied request that it be put
through unamended. Instead of put
ting the President in a hole on this
proposition, the insurgents lifted him
out of one, for it is now admitted that
the bill as originally drafted could not
have suited the railroads better had 1t
been drawn up by attorneys for the
roads.
And now the President is EN-
barra ssed with tariff legislation at this
session of Congress. 1t is interesting
to note that the two schedules On
which the insurgents in the Senate
made their greatest fight two years ago
were the textile schedules, cotton and
wool. La Toilette, of Wisconsin, and
the late lamented Dolliver fought the
Aldrich rates in these schedules for
days and gave warning of what would
happen IL the rates were not lowered.
Iue ETeSlueulb TedbOll AOI iHul Si6HAAA
the revision of these schedules is that
they bave not been based upon a report
from the tariff board. 1t is because
Republicans aided in sending these
bills to him that the stand-patters
charge that there is a conspiracy to
put the President In a hole. This par
ticular hole wal not dug at this session
of Congress. 1t was dug in the first
session of the Sixty-first Congress. The
mar who dug il was Nelson w. AL
drich. and when he completed the lob
he dragged the President down into the
hole with him. The President has occu-
pied this particular hole for just about
two years.
When the insurgents and Democrats
look over the record outlined above,
and when they realize that the voters
will be made thoroughly familiar with
his record, they are not much con
cerned about a charge that they are
trying to put the President in a hole
The fact Of the matter is they feel
that the President is SO thoroughly ex-
perienced in digging holes for himself
that he does not need assistance.
