An undertaken in Flushing was I'M

vacations. News Items.
Where is the pastor of our flock?
The Congregation cried;
1t is eleven Of the clock,
That fact can't be denied.
The Sexton answered thus: Methinks
At golf upon the Ardsley links.
I've flew the coop with this here peach,
In dulcet tones so sad
A youth, who met her on the beach,
Impatient to be wed.
The raven sexton coldly speaks:
The priests in Europe for six weeks.
My baby's going, frantic cries
A mother, all distressed;
1t must be christened ere it dies,
Or be by hell possessed.
The man of omen dourly smiles:
Then HE ye to the Thousand Isles.
The bishop sure would condescend,
A weeping widow pleads,
To soothe my dying husbands end,
And tender to his needs.
But they are occupied, OF course,
Discussing nothing but divorce.

Honest Advertising Pays

Many of the largest advertisers in
the United States say they prefer the
weekly newspaper over all their publ
cations, as a medium through which to
exploit their wares. The argue that
the weekly newspaper which gives all
the local news, maintains fearless and
independent editorial policy and is kept
clean, is the paper most sought after
by residents of the rural communities.
They add that daily newspapers are
such frequent visitors to the home that
some persons-niany in fact-are in
clined to scan them hurriedly and then
throw them aside. On the other hand
a weekly newspaper is usually read and
reread during the week, many persons
taking as much interest in the business
news, or advertising, as they do in the
news about people and local happen
ings.
Business news to be interesting
and convincing must be prepared in a
pains taking manner, said large ad-
vertiser the other day. 4 find that l
must pay as much attention to the pre-
paration of ad copy as I do to buying
my goods.
II have POUNDS that when I give the
proper amount OF attention and carefully
prepare my advertisement that it cannot
help resulting in some good to my bus
mess when published in a newspaper
which reaches the people. A country
newspaper with large circulation goes
to the folks who want what l have to
sell.
Another thing, business news as
we'll as any other kind of news must be
reliable. cannot offer my customers
something in my weekly advertisement
and then fail to keep my word"

COMING PRESIDENTIAL TOUR
Continued from First Pagel

industrial trusts. They believe a pub
lie servants policy with regard to rail-
road combinations is indicative of his
probable policy toward industrial trusts.
They have not forgotten that it is Of
record that the present administration
proposed to allow the railroads to enter
into pooling agreements and attempted
to legalize the ownership by one rail-
road of majority of the stock of an
other competing with it; in brief to le-
galize railroad trusts. The people want
to know it that is the presidents policy
regarding industrial trusts.
And finally the people will want to
learn from the president what his atti-
tude will be toward the progressives, in
his own party, if he should be nomi-
mated and reelected. In the unfor-
gotten Norton letter, it was acknowledge
ed on behalf OF the president that he
dealt with the progressives as if they
had been democrats, because they had
opposed his railroad policy as regards
pooling and in other matters. Will
the president construe his denomination
(if he should be renominated) and his
reelection (if he should be re-elected)
as mandate to read the progressive
republicans out of the party a second
time.

WASHINGTON POLITICAL TALK
Can He Win If Nominated -Standpatism
Lost and Progressivism Gained

The presidents western tour causes
much speculation in the national capt.
toll. Our Washington correspondent
has had his ear to the ground.
Can Taft be reelected if he is nom
mated by the Republican convention?
This question is giving republicans all
over the county grave concern. The
cold facts of the case are disquieting.
In 1910, eleven states that were re-
publican in 1908, went democratic.
These states are Colorado, Connecticut,
Indiana, Maine, Massachusetts,, Mis-
souri,, Montana, New Jersey, New York,
Ohio and West Virginia. Under the
new apportionment these states will
have 1875 of the SCI votes in the cleo
toral college.
If the states should vote in 1912 as
they did in 1910, the democrats would
win 325 to 200. The republican nom
inee must gain not less than 90 cleo
toral votes.
The opposition to the administration
has been intensified rather than molli-
fed since the 1910 election, and it is
quite as likely that TAFT as presiden-
tial candidate would lose in western
states like Washington, Oregon, Cali
fornia, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dako-
ia, and Wisconsin, that were kept in
the republican column in 1910 largely
because OF progressive republican can
didates for congress, as that he would
gain ground lost in 1910.
On the other hand, the facts show
also that the Progressive Republicans
or insurgents gained strength while the
administration or standpatters were
losing. In 1910, the standpatters lost
some eighty seats in Congress, but the
Progressive Republicans doubled their
delegation in the lower house.
The Progressive states now number
twelve, and indications come from ev-
cry quarter of the country that in the
rank and file of the Republican and
Democratic party alike is desire to
support for President a candidate rep
renting the Republican movement.
The progressives believe that only by
the nomination OF Progressive candi-
date can the Republican party win in
1912, and they are making a fight to
control the convention to nominate
Progressive and insure victory.
The surviving big gun Of standpat-
ism, Speaker Cannon, has announced
that he is for the denomination OF Pres
ident Taft and against the Progressives
and Progressivism. The President
well might pray to be saved from his
friends. But it may be that he now is
waiting, with anxious anticipation, a
second expression of Mr.. John d.
Rockefeller confidence in him.

More Money Needed To Raise Maine

Strange as it may seem, the real
problems connected with the raising of
the battleship main in Havana harbor,
are temporarily at a standstill owing to
the lack of funds available for the pur-
pose Of carrying to the work. Secre-
tary Stimson says that $250,000 more
will have to be appropriated by the
next congress in order to complete the
removal of the wreckage. This can
not be done until December. Mean
while small crew of men will be kept
at work on the job Of pumping out
bulkheads which are filled with mud
and water.

at the United States naval academy
as reflected in the academy hops is

LAWYERS CLASH IN NOTED
RECEIVERSHlP CASE
Colonel Finley Now is on the Stand
and Case May Last for Three
More Days.

There was a stormy session this
morning in the New Mexico Central
receivership case which is being heard
before Judge McFie and for a few
moments it looked like a legal fight
in the literal sense OF the term. But
then the dinner hour came, and as
Prince Bismarck once remarked after
good meal diplomacy is easy.
The intervenors, Hunter and Nc
Glashen who want c. c. Murray re-
moved as receiver, closed their side
of the case and the defense proceeded
with the testimony. Colonel Finley
of the bondholders committee has
been on the stand most of the day tas-
tifying as to the efforts the bond
holders took to sell the New Mexico
Central railway. It was during his
cross examination on the question
of propositions to sell the road that
he stated he had offered 10 settle with
unsecured creditors and the Domin
ion Construction Company, the larg
est creditor represented here by Judge
/ J. Erb of Chicago, thai objection was
made to his disclosing the terms OF
settlement offered.
Then a six handed discussion broke
out and it reached an acute stag;
when Judge Edward A. Manns re
marks brought STANLEY Pearce, of st
Louis, attorney for the intervenors
to his feet. Mr.. Pearce took off hi.
! glasses and it looked as though ht
were ready to put on the gloves. SooI
however, the dinner hour arrived.
The brilliant array of attorneys still
dazzles the small audience that gath
ers each day to hear portions of the
case. Attorney E. W, DobsOn of Al
