s, returning check for $3.50 which you
state was found and delivered at your

The surprising part OF this whole

was issued and lost; not that It was
found by some wag, who had no diff
ficulty In imposing upon your child
like nonsense with q story that
wished to contribute to the Repub-
lican campaign fund; not that you n
nally realised that this cruel wag had
made an ass out Of you; but that the
check should have finally reached Its
rightful owner after having been in
your hands
Broader issues than small checks are
to be discussed In this campaign.
suggest that you direct your attention
to something that the people are m
terested In.
Yours truly,
J. H. GIBSON,
State Chairman.

HOW P1T1FULLY WEAK IS TAFT.

Reports of the organization of Taft clubs in various
sections of the state read like reports from the for
nation of Socialist local Prohibition club than of
the oldtme Republican organizations. Think of boast
from Caldwell that Republican club has been organized
with As members! Wen warrant the Socialist local there
has greater membership than that and the Proh
bonists would regard it matter for Encouragement if
no better showing could be made Yet the state is boast
fully told that Caldwell has Republican club-a regular
really Republican club with As members!
1t shows what have commended for long that the
old Republican party dead Out of it's ashes may arise
new Republican party but we are inclined to the belief
that the old party designation will depart
and be buried with the corrupt organization which boldly
stole away the remnants of what glory the
nation and pride to its membership.
If organization shall arise accepting and ADOPT

surrender all claim right to the or connection

Should such reformation take place. it will be with

GENTLEMEN

EXT to religion the gentleman is
IN the worlds greatest puzzle. For
six thousand years man has been
endeavoring to standard the breed and
describe it so that gentleman can be
recognized at first glance, but very little
progress has been made as vet, and the
specifications vary in every city and
nation. This has caused so much con-
fusion that many young man who has
made a gentleman of himself with grea
care in one part of the world has been
received with scorn and derisiOn in some
other section, which is using gentlemen
built on entirely different specifications.
In England a gentleman is a rare and
luscious fruit, which grows on the top
most branches of the genealogical tree
In France gentleman is a man who viii
remove his hat and bow to every lady.
whether he knows her or not. In
Arabia a gentleman is a man who viii
not stick a knife into YOU, so long as
YOU are in his tent as a guest. In
China a gentleman Is a man who viii
take half an hour and 2OO0 words to
assure YOU of his utter unworthiness to
breathe the air which YOU have condes-
cendingly left for him.
Even in the United States there is
great difference of opinion regarding
gentlemen. In Boston a gentleman Is a
man whose conversation is hand-m
cured and full of quotations In New
York he Is man who gives you the i'm
preston that he was born with clothes.
Tn Philadelphia he is a fair boxer who
doesn't hit in clinches; in Pittsburg he
is a man with more zeros on the tail
of his income than you have; in Rich
mOnd he Is a man who viii give his seat
to lady IN the street ear and viii throw
another man out of the window to make
room for another lady; in Newport he is !

money, and make them thank him for it
