SAN FRANCISCO. September o
Henry L. Stimson, the Secretary of War,
has come out fiat-footed for Taft and
against Roosevelt.
II was Theodore RooseveIts $ candidate
for Governor Of New York two years ago,
and Roosevelt and / have been very close
political and personal friends, but I am
opposed to Roosevelt's conduct at pres
ent." he said yesterday. in discussing
political conditions. There is no justi-
fication or reason or need for Theodore
Roosevelt in this day and generation.
Theodore Roosevelt has done more
harm to the advancement of pure po-
litical and better governmental conditions
than any other one man, or combination
of men, that has intermeddled in political
and governmental affairs in a great many
years.
Il am a republican because the repub-
lican party is the party of progress and
l am progressive. | am supporting
President Taft because he is the real
progressive of the republican party.
Under the leadership of such progressives
as President Taft and the men who have
remained loyal to him after a generation
of fighting for better and higher things
in the party and in the government the
people at large are promised the very
best results Obtainable from our form of
government.
Secretary Stimson declared that twenty
years ago, when Roosevelt went into pol
itics for the first time, conditions were
infinitely more rotten than they had ever
been before.
He took advantage of these conditions
and played the game of politics according
to the rules laid down by Tom Platt.

tinued to play the game under the re-
wis; t.I ,-,,la Of pn,, nInll ~, 4
and since. until only few months ago,
Roosevelt was the beneficiary of the rot

Division of Country.

The country is to be divided into about
$500 squares, each of which is to meas
ure thirty minutes square" of half
degree of latitude and longitude square,
and each of which is to be unit in
working out the zones for the delivery of
mail.
The law provides for seven zones. All
the rest of the United States outside of
these zones makes up an eighth zone.
The first zone includes all the territory
within fifty miles of given point. as, for
instance Washington; the second zone,
all territory within $50 miles; third zone,
all territory within 300 miles; fourth
zone. all territory within 800 miles; fifth
zone, all territory within 1000 miles
sixth zone, all territory within 1.4OO
miles, and seventh zone, all territory
within 1SO0 miles. The eighth zone In
cludes all the remaining territory.
This means that packages of merchan-
disc of fourth-class mail matter of all
kinds. including farm and factory prod
ucts not embraced in either the first, sec
ond or third class, weighing up to eleven
pounds may be sent through the mails
from Washington to Baltimore, Annap-
oils, Fredericksburg and other nearby
places within the first zone, at charge
of ) cents for the first pound or any frac-
ton thereof, and for ) cents for every
additional pound or fraction of a pound.
In other words, a package weighing
eleven pounds may be sent from wash
ington to any place in this zone at a
charge of 30 cents.

Will Be of Great Value.

The enormous value of the parcels
post. provided for in the post office ap-
preparation law enacted by Congress
less than two weeks ago. has not
yet been grasped by the residents of
Washington. 1t is said. That it will bring
the purchaser and the seller within close
range of New York. Philadelphia, Boston,
Baltimore and the cities lying even on
the Pacific coast can be CLEANED by a
glance at the map and a comparison of
the present rates with those which are
scheduled for the new parcels post
The law provides a schedule of rates
for various distances, and the country
must be divided up first into squares and
then into concentrc zones, and the dis
tance between cities and towns determin-
ed in fixing the rates for the parcels
post. A vast amount of detail confronts
the department. The special committee
of the department officials is busy work
ing out maps and methods for the use
of the post offices.
One of the problems which the COM
mittee must work out deals with the
kinds of materials which may be shipped
in the parcels post. The law states that
the packages must not be such as to
injure any postal employe or other person
or to injure other mail matter.

WHY HEslTATE7
An Offer That Involves no Money
Risk If You Accept II.

We ale so positive our remedy will
completely relieve constipation, no
matter how chronic it may be, that
we offer to furnish it free of all cost
if it fails.
Constipation is commonly caused
by weakness of the nerves and mus
cles of the large intestine. To expect
a cure you must therefore tone up
and strengthen those organs and re-
store them to healthier activity.
We want you to try Rexall Order
lies on our guarantee. They are eat
en- like candy, and are particularly
good for children. They seem to act
directly on the nerves and muscles Of
the bowels. They apparently have a
neutral action on the other organs.
They do not purge or cause other
Inconvenience. We will refund your
money if they do not overcome chron-
ic or habitual constipation and thus
aid to relieve the myriads Of associ-
ate or dependent chronic ailments.
Try Rexall Orderlies at our. risk.
