the reception that the progressive
Kansans had given him.

stations where there was but pause,
chief executive, and they willingly
braved the direct rays Of a torrid
sun to listen to him.
The crowds today were the largest
the President has faced during any
Of his travels. The population "
some of the cities had been swelled to
twice the normal figures. Excursion
trains were run from many directions
and while the day was one Of intense
heat, the President often spoke with
the unclouded sun focused directly
upon him and with the porspiration
streaming down his checks.
Mr. Taft, confined himself largely
to the veto and the wooden. free list,
and tariff bills. He gave his hearers
10 understand he was ready, and more
than willing. to sign any bills reduc-
ing the tariff II founded upon the re-
port of the tariff board. This board.

ton and Olathe.
The President appeared on tho

throngs at Carlisle the home Of Gen
eral Fred Funston. Colony. and sew
eral other small towns. He was on
the go from 1890 o'clock a. m. until
the arrival here at $3.50 tonight. When
no was not talking the train was being
hurried to the next scheduled stop.
Aside from his tariff speeches the
President spoke briefly on marriage
and divorce. and on the prosperity OF
the people Of Kansas, and the trusts.
Senator Curtis and former Repre-
sentative Scott we're with him through
out the day. At Humboldt, Mr.. Scott
introduced the President. When he
had finished. up from the crowd pop
