Taft has not constituted Harry S.

only Republican congressman from In

on them, then their friends were mis-
led. Pursuant to the arrangement, it
is asserted that Crumpacker actually
named the postmaster at Button.
After the fiasco resulting from the re-
concentrations of George p. Hay

rcsentative Crumpacker firmly relin-
quished the job as referee and inform

no more recommendations. This was

AS late as Wednesday. New telegraph
ed the President recommending Love

Peru. Subsequently his title to ref
cree was impeached at the White
House.
The incident is one of the many that
serve to show President Taft's political
methods.
When the President was laundering
over the marshalship he decided at
one point to create a referee board
composed of New and Crumpacker to
settle the marshalship.
Before either of them would con-
sent to serve he was promised abso-
lrely that their joint recommends

the President when submitted.

Senator Hemenway was hurrying to
Washington to put a crimp in the plan.
He arrived. sought out Senator Bev-
eridge and for once the two formed
common ground. Hemenway voiced
his protest to Taft and Beveridge fol-
lowed with his.
Imagine the surprise and disgust
of Crumpacker when he received
telephone message from the White
House asking him not to present Hay

COURT HOUSE WILL
HAVE SOME REPAIRS

such bad state of repairs in SO many
places that the county commissioners
on Saturday decided to have it re-
paired at once. There is hardly room
on the second or third floors in which
the water does not seep through the
ceiling during hard rains. The plas-
ter in many of the rooms is rotten as
a result of the numerous soakings.
The commissioners have not decided
whether to let the contract for the re-
pairs by bid or to an individual with
out bids being made.

BY.A CAR
CROSSING MAIN ST,
Elwood Lancaster Meets with
Serious but Not Fatal
Injury.

Elwood Lancaster, teamster of
this city. received severe bruises and
cuts about his face, head and body as
a result of being knocked down by city
car No. 800 in charge of Motorman
Charles b. CluXton at Eighth and Main
streets last evening at 7:45 O'Clock.
The car was running at d low speed
and it was stopped by Motorman
CluXton after Lancaster had passed
under the fender and before the front
trucks had struck his body. The car
was Immediately backed and Lancas-
ter, bleeding freely from gashes about
his face and head, was carried into
the Ross drug store and medical aid
given him.
Lancaster was standing at the south.
west corner of Eighth and Main street
just before the car neared the cross
ing. Apparently not noticing its APP
proach Lancaster started across the
street. The short distance interview
ing between him and the car made it
impossible for Motorman Cluxton to
bring his car to a stop before Ian
caster was hit.
Lancaster was removed later in the
city ambulance to his home, 2J1 Chest
nut street, where further examina-
ton failed to disclose any broken
bones. The cuts and bruises which he
sustained however. are extremely Sc
we're. He is suffering great pain and
is unable to move muscle. When
the fender passed over his body a
large piece of flesh was gouged out
above the right eye. and a long cash
inflicted on his nose. He will re-
cover.

WANTS SALARY INCREASED

Senator Gaylord of Milwaukee,
has introduced a bill in the senate
to increase the pay of numbers of
the Legislature from $500 to 81, 800.
1t seems, that about the first thing
our Social Democrat friends do
when they have the opportunity, is
to double up on salaries and then
yell long and loud about extrava-
gance. Should the salary not be
raised, there will be no difficulty
in securing patriots willing to serve
the people in the legislature, and
should any of them spend more
than their salary, they can get onto
some committee of investigation or
other tommyrot and thus add to
their political rake off few thou
sand dollars.

The editor of the Leader has
been a life long republican, stand
ing by the party through good and
evil report, but at the present time
he feels that he is a political or
phan without a party or political
identity, The Canadian reciproc-
ity has done the business and done
It most eHectually. When a few
insurgents, a few standpatters and
most of the democrats In the lower
branch of Congress favor the reel
procity agreement and thus en-
deavor to carry out campaign and
party pledges, and many insur-
gents and most of the republican
members oppose the ratification of
the treaty, we confess, that we are
at loss to know exactly where
we are at" It looks as if the dem
ocrats were trying to be honest
with the people, even if they had
to indorse the measure of a repub-
lican president. Should the treaty
not be ratified at this session of
Congress, the Republican party
might as we'll 90 out of business
for the people will know that it is
owned by the special interests"
and that they cannot expect any re-
lief as far as the party is concern
ed. It begins to look as if a whole
lot of the republicans would be OBJ
liged to flock with the democrats in
the immediate future to get rid of
the burden resting upon the people.
