Where are we at? After strenl-
ously opposing resubmission all
these years. the Republicans did all
of the talking and enough of the yot-
ing to pass the resolve in the House
LIST Thursday. Did such seasoned
campaigners as Peters and Austin
fall into a pit dug by the willy Pat
tangall? Perhaps, but a more prob
able explanation is that the Hale
crowd" has decided upon a policy Of
rule or ruin, now that their party is
facing a reorganization. No wonder
that Patt is growing conservative.
What's the use of conceding reforms
so long as elections can be carried
without them.

The Crisis for Temperance

The fight is on For that matter
it has been on for a good many years,
but at last We haze como to the be
ginning of the end Two hundred
days remain in which to prepare for
the struggle which will be necessary
to uphold the prohibtory law. After
the eleventh of next September, the
people of this broad land will know
where Maine stands ON the Liquor
question.
Not for one moment shall We enter
tain any doubt as to the outcome. The
prohibitory law is hardly in danger,
so far as this next election is con
cerned but after that what? The
amendment was put into the consti-
tuition by a vote of something like
three to one. Should it be sustain
ed by a reduced majority. the liquor
interests will at once infer that pro-
hibition sentiment is waning, and
govern themselves accordingly.
An affirmative of three to one or
better, will settle the liquor question
in Maine for many long years. More
than that it will give to the temper
ance workers all over the land, re-
newed courage But vote of that
size is not likely to be polled without
careful organization. and deal of
hard work. Don't let US waste any
time or energy in worrying about
aow other counties are likely to vote,
but Just make it our business to see
that every available YES" in Som
erset county is duly recorded

TAFT JOINS ROUGH
RIDERS, THEN TEARS
RAPIDLY INTO WORK
Becomes Member of Cali
fornia Club Before Tack
ling Routine.

President Taft has at last arrived In
the Roosevelt class. This accomplish
uent was reached today, when he &C.
cepted honorary membership in the
Grand Camp Of Rough Riders of Call
fornia.
There is no evidence that the Execu-
tive will do any rough horseback rid
ing himself. He prefers the automo-
bile or the carriage. Just the same he
has allowed himself to become as
ISOLATED with the Rough Riders Of the
Pacific coast, and Will feel at least a
fellowship with the Westerners.
The President plunged into work this
morning as soon as he had shaken of
the dust of travel There was a long
stream OF visitors, some of them bear
ing invitations and some of them ready
TO talk legislation.
Senator Penrose called early to dis
cuss the status of reciprocity. He said
as he left that he believed all amend
ments to the bill would be disposed of
early, and that he still contends that
Congress will be ready to adjourn by
the LIST of August.
Representative Underwood also was
an early caller. He wanted to talk
ONcE q lOCdl iO oAoO
discussed legislative matters for time.
r. He said he had congratulated the Pres
ident upon the Indianapolis speech, and
had told him that the doctrine ex-
pressed in that address was good Demo-
crazy, as well as good Republicanism.
An invitation was accepted to the
Lincoln Day dinner to be given by the
Republican Club of New York, Feb
ruary L. Former Representative Oh
colt of New York, presented the invi-
tation. The President also has
promised to go to Morgantown, w. Va,
to be present at the Inauguration Of
DR.. Thomas E. Hodges as president Of
that institution. Senator Watson and
former Senators Davis, ElkIns and
Henry Gassaway Davis presented the
invitation.
During the morning the Executive set
October rs as the day for his visit to
Hodginville, KY, for the Dedication of
the Lincoln memorial farm. He also
promised to visit Pittsburg October q,
and Peoria some time in September
Fe did not fix a date for this last
trip.
DR.. Bdy, of this city. today gave Mr..
Taft a first aid case for automobile
accidents. This will be carried on the
White House automobile during the
Presidents motoring here and In Bev-
erly.

ROYALISTS SAID TO BE COLLECT
ING FORCE AND GOVERNMENT
is SENDING OUT TROOPS

LISBON, Sept. 4, VIA BADAJOS.
SPAIN Special The Portuguese
Government mas spread $4,000 SOL
diers throughout the mountainous re-
gions of the northern frontier to stop
the activity of royalist agents who are
recruiting forces among the noun
taineers with offers of large pay and
bounties.
Fearing that a long border warfare
is in prospect, President de Arriaga
has given orders to crush out every
vestige of the revolt.
There have been heavy movements
of troops from Oporto, which was
formerly the hot bed of monarchist
activity, but which has become very
quiet of late under military pressure.
The government is attempting to
settle industrial disputes here and
elsewhere throughout the republic.
Dispatch bearing automobiles bound
for Badajos are having a difficult time
passing the soldiers, as the govern
ment is trying to keep news of it's
domestic conditions from the outside
world.
