pears to be much shrewder than
Cummins and some other insurgents
The California senator, while elected
as an insurgent, and until recently
numbered with the insurgent bunch,
frankly states his purpose TO support
the president for reelection. He ex-
plains that the republican party, in
his judgment, is the most capable
agency for reform, and he proposes
to work within the party for SUCH
reforms as he deems necessary. Cum
minis and La Toilette and Bristow,
having burned the bridges behind
them because of their petty jealous
of the president, are headed for
the democratic camp, where il is to
be hoped they will be made duly
welcome.

was accompanied by Americas and
Koch, his two wrestling partners. o. He
sails from New York September . for
his home in Russia. The offer for a
private return match with Gotch was
cOntradicted by a later statement to the
effect that after leaving New York he
will never return to America. The Of
fer was Immediately carried to Gotch
who accepted it with the provision that
the match shall occur within two
months. This was not accepted by the
Russian on the ground that his injured
knee would not permit a return match
so soon. Gotch was eager to return
home, but his mother and wife will not
be ready to leave until Saturday. They
want to finish shopping. so Gotch can

GUESS WE'LL keep
THAT CUP AWHILE
The Motor Boat Dixie Fourth Royalty
Defends Title to the Harmworth
Trophy.

HUNTINGTON, l.. l., Sept. 5.-Su-
perior speed and construction and per-
haps accident gave to America today
possession of the Harmsworth motor
boat international cup fr anther year.
Dixie ", the speedy American defen-
der. carried off the hOnOrs. But for an
Academic the Duke Westminister's Pr
oneer. however, the British boat might
have saved the day for the British
challengers. The Pioneer gained 200
feet the first round or the course. and
on the second round, with all speed on,
her engine collapsed. The Dixie ran
ahead four miles and after that made
no efofrt to increase her lead. After
repairing, the Pioneer started again, but
suffered another BLOW up" and the
committee megaphoned her not to fin
ish. Disturber ii, the Chicago boat,
hit an empty soap box and tore a hole
in her keel. She had a race to the
shore to keep from sinking. The crew
got ducking. The Dixie is the sew
enth in which America has scored IN
the Harmsworth cup events.

PRESIDENTS ROUTE
HAS BEEN OUTLINED
The Executive Will Leave Boston
September IS, for A Trip to the
Pacific Coast.

BEVERLY, Sept. 5.-The route along
which President Taft will thread his
way for 1900 miles in a tour of the
west was definitely mapped out today
The line runs through "a states( while
over a hundred cities are dotted red
showing pauses for speeches on the
tariff. reciprocity, conservation. arbi-
tration, and Alaska. The trip will start
at Boston, September Is, and finish at
Washington Nov. l, in time to hear
the verdict of the election in some
states six days later
The president heads straight for
Michigan. pausing only n day or two
in New York and Pennsylvania. From
Michigan the route leads through Ill
nois, then through Missouri, Kansas
Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming,
Utah. Idah, Washington, Oregon, Cali
fornia, Montana, South Dakota, Min
nesota, wisconsin, and finally to Chi
cago. Pittsburg and Washington. In )
states he makes no stops. The longest
jump on the trip is $50 miles from Los
Angeles to Salt Lake The president
will seldom go more than twenty or
thirty miles without stopping to say a
word either in some ball or from the
rear platform of his car. Many mil
lions of people will thus hear the presi-
dents voice, or catch a glimpse of
him.

What Say the Candidates?

Several lawyers have expressed
their approval of the suggestion made
the other day by The Republican, that
it will be the duty of the legislature
to enact a law providing for a gener-
al election to be held in November OF
next year.
1t would be manifestly unfair to
the incoming supreme court to require
the justices thereof, in the absence
Of a legislative enactment, to pass
upon the constitutional question
whether an election could be held
next year. To make this require
ment of the supreme court justices
would make it necessary for them
to pass upon their own tenure of
office.
A legislative enactment providing
for the required election would, we
are sure, take care of the awkard
situation created by the constitutional
provision for IAN election in to, first
even murderer year after the year
Arizona is admitted" Q91D.
The Republican has suggested that,
the constitution being silen. on the
question of an election before the
year 1914, there would be nothing
unconstitutional in a legislative act
providing for an election before 1914.
We advanced this suggestion as a
commonsense interpolation of English.
and we find it has the approval
of sound lawyers of both parties
But the men chosen to office at
the coming election will naturally
wish to serve three years instead of
one, if they can. They will serve
three years, unless the legislature
provides for an election next year.
The people have right to know
how candidates stand on this question
especially candidates for the legis-
lature. Every candidate for office.
and particularly the candidates for
the legislature, should be required
to pledge themselves to aid in the
enactment of law for an election
in 1912.
Candidates for the legislature can
not very well dodge their RESPONSE
bility in this respect by claiming to
be disinterested because their own
terms expire at the end of one year
in any event. They will have friends
in other offices. and these friends
will insist upon being protected.
The candidate who refuses to pledge
himself on this question will be very
properly viewed with suspicion.

The Flop of MIR. Cummins.

Senator Cummins Of Iowa, whose
system has been surcharged with in
surgency for some years, is in the
papers with a statement Of his op-
position to the denomination of Pres
ident Taft. First among the griev-
ances which he names is the presi-
dents successful campaign for the
Canadian reciprocity bill.
Only a few years ago, as we
pointed out in these columns recent
ly. Mr.. Cummins, then governor of
Iowa, declared himself unqualifiedly
for reciprocity with Canada. He told
the Iowa farmers that, far from
doing them any injury, reciprocity
with our northern neighbors would
be immensely beneficial to the agri-
cultural interests of the United
States. He gave no sign of change
of opinion on this question until
President Taft made reciprocity an
administration policy. 1t being part
of the insurgent creed to oppose
everything the president advocates,
Senator Cummins found it necessary
to repudiate his former disposition
on the reciprocity question.
The Iowa senator could make little
Roadway in his opposition to the
presidents denomination in any event,
but he might have retained the res

GREAT FLOODS ARE

PEKIN, Sept. 5.-Great floods are
devasting that part of the empire which
extends from Ichang. province of HUI

loss of life is only to be estimated, but
is believed to reach many thousands.
The loss of foreign property IS extern

The Asylum Fire.

one of the most dreadful of all
fires is a fire in an asylum for
the insane. The people of Arizona
have reason to be thankful that in the
destruction of their asylum there
was no loss of life. That all of the
Unfortunates in the institution were
escorted to safety is due to the
fact that the tire occurred in the
day time and TO the excellent dis
cipline maintained by the manage
ment.
Under the circumst- ices, therefore,
there is not only reason to be thank
fuI, but the destruction of the old
pile is not especially regrettable.
For years the old buildings have
been recognized as inadequate and
with the beginning of Governor Kib-
bey's administration, TX years ago,
the institution was frankly conceded
to be a fire trap and all practical
BILE means were taken to lessen the
danger from fire. Incredible as it
may seem, it is a fact that six years
ago there was no electric lighting
system for the institution-coai oil
lamps were used. That there had
not been a horrible holocaust was
proof, it seemed, that providence had
been protecting the institution. An
electric light system was installed,
together with d local system for
fighting fire. On account of limited
funds this system was necessarily
limited in efficiency, but its value
was demonstrated yesterday when it
enabled the fire fighters to hold
the flames somewhat in check until
the arrival of the fire engine from
town. This resulted in the saving
of the west wing.
Official recognition Of the poor
adaptation of the buildings to their
uses and of the absence Of nearly
all modern features, resulted, three
years ago, in the beginning of the
new construction designed to displace
all the old structure. A modern
hospital, Of concrete and of course
fire proof, was built, and the legis-
lature was urged to provide funds
for a completely new institutino.
But, as always, the legislature was
slow to respond to obvious needs.
Governor Sloan, however, was sue
cessful in obtaining an additional
appropriation for construction pur-
poses, and with the collection of
taxes this fall there will be avail
able for new buildings the sum of
fifty thousand dollars. This, with the
insurance funds collected for the loss
Of yesterday, will provide for at least
a portion Of the new buildings need
ed But a considerable additional
appropriation will be necessary in
order to provide a thoroughly modern
and adequate home for the insane,
and this appropriation would not
have been forthcoming in the future,
if there had been no fire.

FORCEMENT SAID TO BE DRlV-
ING TRADE AWAY FROM HERE.

Three different merchants made
complaint TO the Ardmoreite yester-
day against the city officials, charging
that in the eagerness of the city to
punish all yiolator.s of the prohibition
law that farmers and persons from
the surrounding towns who do all
their trading here were being subject
ed to unnecessary arrests and to hav-
ing their grips searched for whiskey.
The customers of the merchants are
complaining that they are not treat
ed as fairly as the men who live here
in town and state that they will go
to other places to do their trading
The complaint was made Friday
night that some men were locked up
and refused bail and were held until
morning.
Inquiry at the police station con-
frmed the report that some persons
were locked up, but the night SER
geant, Mr.. Hopson, stated that no
one had been refused bail who could
make it, and who was sober enough
TO be released.
