CREW OF COLUMBUS.

The list of the officers and sailors
in the first voyage of Columbus was
almost cosmopolitan in its character.
Among them there was a Jew, Luis
de Torres; an Englishman, Arthur
Laws; Italians, Portuguese, Span
iards and several other nationalities,
though, of course, the Spaniards
we're largely in the majority. 1t is
maintained by some authorities, with
considerable plausibility, too, that
there was a Scotchman in the list,
and that after Columbus himself he
was the first man to tread the soil
Of the new world.

Time Told by Shadows.

Among curious clock novelties is the
shadow boudoir clock. With it there
Is no need of getting up to strike q
light or turn on the bulb. All that is
necessary is to touch a button and
the time Is flashed on the wall after
the same fashion that signs are
flashed on the sidewalk. When the
owner OF the clock retires he turns
night dial to the ceiling and when he
presses a bulb the electric light re-
fects' from the dial through the lens
and appears. giving the correct time

Roosevelt Club Organized

Last Monday evening a mass
meeting was called at the court
house for the purpose Of organizing a
Roosevelt Club of Knox County.
The meeting was called to order
by chairman W. X Lay and speech
es made by the different members
of the club, and a committee ap.
pointed to draft resolutions. After
the resolutions were drawn up they
were then circulated for signers and
they claim to have several nam9s ON
the list.
1t also is reported that a caucus
was held after the adjournment of
the meeting and slate adopted for
the next county officers election,
consisting OF the offices of county
Judge, sheriff. jailer and county at.
torney. This last was supposed to
be kept a profound secret but it ap.
pears that one OF the officers select
ed became dissatisfied with some OF
the arrangements and let the cat
out of the bag. This last develop
ment seems TO Indicate that the
Roosevelt movement in Knox
County is more Tor the purpose of
thc getting in the band wagon OF a
few Office seekers who seek to ride
the popularity OF some one else, than
on account of the professed great
admiration for Roosevelt.

The only purpose Of agitating the
nomination of Roosevelt is to arrest
the National trend toward Taft.
Mr.. Taft's enemies have gone
to make the people believe that he
not only can not be elected, but that
he can not carry his own State, be-
cause in Ohio comparatively a hand
iul of disappointed politicians, who
make up in wind and noise what
they lack in numbers and influence,
pretend that he can not. To defeat
Mr. Taft would be tacit acknowl-
edgment that his great administra-
tion has been a failure, and hence
there would be no hope Of electing
his successor.
The elections in the fall of 1911
clearly demonstrate that the Demo-
cratic craze of 1910. when the Re-
publicans were defeated because they
sulked and remained at home, has
not only subsidized. hut a strong and
irresistible current ~ sweeping in
the opposite direction. In Mass''
chusetts, while Foss was reelected
solely on account of his personal
popularity, by decreased majority,
the Republican majority in the Leg
islature was largely augmented. In
New York and New Jersey the DENT
ocratic majority in the Legislature
was wiped out and a majority of
Republicans elected The results in
Nebraska and Maryland were most
CRAFTY ing. while New Mexico will
elect two Republican U. S Senators.
In all these States the Republicans
make the tariff the issue. They fully
discussed the three tariff bills adopt
ed at the call session and vetoed by
Mr.. TAFT. as q result of Democrat
&c caucus without investigation. al
though they affected an investment
of millions of dollars and the pros.
perity of ten millions people. In
Kentucky alone were the Democrats
successful. Unfortunately, in that
State, the tariff was pushed into
the background and State issues al
most entirely discussed. But even
there il the more than forty thous-
and Republicans who remained at
home bad come out and voted. the
Republican State ticket and a ma
jority in the Legislature would have
teen elected.
Some of those who secretly op
pose the President. openly pretend
TO be for him and constantly express
regret because. they say, he eau nj
