Republican National Committee.

The meeting Of the Republican Ma
tionlI Committee. which /, scheduled
for this city tomorrow. marks def
mite period in the opening Of the Prc>i-
dental campaign Unlike previous >c>-
sions. the work of the committee is
already outlined 1t seems practically
certain that the convention will be held
i'll Chicago during the latter part of
June, while the denomination of Prcsi-
dent Tatj l. assured
Two questions. however. will come
before the committee The first is Il
proposal to make ii optional with Il
State organization to eject delegates to
he national convention, either by a
Presidential primary or by the e>tab-
.ished method OF conventions in Con-
EreSSional districts The second is the
familiar proposition To base the repre-
scntation in the convention upon the to-
tai OF Republican vote, cast at the last
Presidential election, the purpose being
10 reduce the number of delegates from
the Southern States where the Rcpub
lican vote j. practically nothing As for
the Presidential primary idea. it may
be said that the sentiment in its favor
has grown in recent years, and is now
provided ior by Jaw i'll some States. Ii
IS by no means certain that the commit
tee will depart from the present custom.
although there is feeling among the
friends OF the administration that if
State committees should be allowed to
adopt the primary idea the result would
be favorable 10 Mr. Taft 1t is also
doubtful whether action will be taken
upon the proposition 10 reduce South
ern representation, inaSmuch as the mat
ter is one which more properly belongs
to the convention itself 1t is not sur
prising, of course. that States which
give heavy Republican majorities or are
in the doubtful column should feel dis
turbed because delegates from Southern
States, which never give any Rcpub-
lican electoral votes, arc numerous
enough TO be an important factor in the
nomination of a candidate
1t will be remembered, for instance.
that when the campaign for the Nc
Kinley nomination was undertaken. the
nucleus Of the votes which finally in
suFed him victory was obtained by the
pledges of Southern delegates. While
this condition is fully appreciated by the
practical politicians who compose the
committee, it is hardly probable that
they will undertake to make a change
at this time It is a question which
more properly belongs 10 the conven-
ton when it assemblies. Four years ago
the matter was agitated with consid-
cradle effect, and It IS not at all i'm.

ture delegates will be chosen upon the
basis of Republican votes cast at the

In the meantime. the committee will

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
Its Reception Has Been Most Com
pIimentary to MIR. Taft.


pIimentary to Mr.. Taft.
Frum the New York Herald.
The reception OF President Tatt's first"
message has certainly been most cOmpli-
mentary. Newspapers, without regard to
party, praise the calm and candid man
ner in which he treats the subject of the
trusts. We said yesterday that the PresI-
dent wrote like a judge rather than a
President. As a matter OF fact, he not
only wrote like judge, but like Presi-
dent whose mind was widely removed
from prejudice and combativeness. and
knew thoroughly the subject he was dis
cussing.
Whatever may be saId oy others who
have their own ideas as TO remedying
the trust evil II must be admitted that
President Taft goes directly to the sub
JCct and handles 1t with the air OF au-
thority which might well be expected OF
the man who as judge blazed the way
for the Interpretation of the Sherman
law In the Addystone Pipe case.

RESTORE GRAY HAIR
TO. NATURAL COLOR

The old idea of using sage for dark.
ening the hair is again coming in
vogue. Our grandmotl ers used to
have dark, glossy hair at the age of
seventy-five, while our mothers have
white hair before they are fifty. Our
grandmothers used to make a "sage
tea" and apply it to their hair. The
tea made their hair soft and glossy,
and gradually restored the natural
color.
One objection to using such a prep
aratfon was the trouble of making it.,
especially as it had to be made every
two or three days, on account of sour
ing quickly. This objection has been
overcome, and by asking almost any
first-class druggist for Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy the public
can get superior preparation of sage,
with the admixture of sulphur, an
other valuable remedy for hair and
scalp troubles. Daily use of this prep
aration will not only quickly restore
the color of the hair, but will also
stop the hair from falling out and
make it grow.
Get bottle from your druggist to-
day. Use it and see for yourself how
quickly dandruff goes and gray hairs
vanish. o NVN
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents bottle, and is
recommended and sold by all drug
glsts. Cowan's drug store.

while Eel Zephers, belonging to Dunn
of Underwood, took second money in
the 2:15 pace.
The fact that St. Henry was de-
tained at Red Lodge by an accident
yesterday made it impossible to give
the flights as scheduled, but a force
of mechanics arrived with the injured
"Sweetheart" last night and worked
all night, so that the crowds may be
entertained today. The motor of the
biplane stopped Wednesday after
noon when St. Henry was over go feet
in the air. One of the planes was
broken slightly, but Lucky Bob" sus-
tanned his reputation by escaping
with few minor bruises.
The bucking exhibitions by soma of
the outlaw horses in the Burnstad
camp thrilled the crowds yesterday,
while the riding was indispensable.
Harold Burnstad, the 15-yearold son
Of Mr.. Burnstad, is making a valiant
attempt to defeat Schultz, the leader
of the relay cams, and is only few
seconds behind on the three days.
race. The outcome is being watched
closely, not only by the spectators but
by the horsemen on the grounds.
Schultz has a reputation as one of
thu best cowboys in the country and
has never lost a relay race. The
Burnstad boy was in the mixup Tues
day when some of the ponies collided
and lost quite a lot of time but hopes
to overcome the lead of his opponent
before the end of the four days. A
young brave gave an exhibition with
a buckipg steer in front of the grand
stand Wednesday that was both amus-
ing and exciting The steer is very
difficult to ride on account of the
width Of his back, throwing the In
dian after hard fight.
The Burnstad stables have in their
chariot races and standing races with
out doubt the most thrilling perform
ance ever given at the fair. In the
standing race yesterday one of the
entries became confused and the
rider, trying as desperately to keep his
balance, was thrown into the bushes
at the side of the track. Before the
marshals could get to the scene of the
accident the boy appeared and waved
reassuringly to the big crowd stand
ing in suspense. The cowboy was
cheered to the echo as he limped back
to the stand as If nothing had hap
pened. In the chariot race the time
for the half mile was :56. The track
was heavy this morning from last
nights rain, but by afternoon had
dried up and was in fine condition.
Voss and his celebrated wind wagon
gave an exhibition run of two miles

afternoon. The strange appearance
OF the car creates a great deal of in.
