An Interesting Lecture.

Professor Fred l.. Ulen of Lewiston
addressed the Young Peoples Uniol
of Moscow last evening at the First
Baptist church His subject was
Like Attracts Like" He unfolded the
character principles capable of devel-
oping in the average young person. il
Illustrating his lecture with many
striking pictures showing the result
of true or false development. Under
parallel lists he included the creative
forces and the destructive forces. and
urged the Strengthening of such char
acter traits as would make for creation
of strength and power.
A large audience listened with eager
interest, and Professor Ulen more than
satisfied their expectations The lee
turee was enlivened with much keen
play of wit and satire over some of
the foibles and follies of modern life.
The noble impulses and ideals were
held up for imitation and inspiration
1t is hoped that the professor may be
secured for an evening lecture on
some week night in the near future
when he will have time to fully de-
velop one of his carefully wrought out
studies of human nature.

"The State, / am It."

CINCINNATI, Ohio, May 20.-In a
denunciation of Colonel Roosevelt
here, President Taft said the certain
ty of his defeat for the republican
nomination must be source of pro-
found congratulation to all patriotic
citizens" asserted that his predecessor
in the White House would try to
wreck the republican party if he is not
chosen by the republican convention
and compared Mr., Roosevelt to Louis
XIV, of France who said "The state,
am it."
The attack in which Mr.. Taft said
this was as follows:
"On Thursday l gave statement
to the press in which | said that with
$40 Taft delegates then elected 10 the
convention and with the immediate
prospect of the election of dele
gates to exceed the necessary $40,
the success of the cause of con-
stltutional government is assured.
The delegates elected since then have
confirmed this.
"The arrogance of Mr.. Roosevelt's
statement that he is the republican
party, and that failure to comply with
his views and wishes puts those not
so doing in the attitude of boilers,
finds no parallel in history, save in
the famous words of Louis XIV, The
state-I am it, 1t is on a par with
his declaration that L embody the
sentiment of the age
with clearly traceable premedita-
tion, he projected contests without |
the slightest reason therefore in many
cases after the regular conventions |
had been held, merely to make a |
basis for a campaign of bluff and |
buster Now, he threatens that un-
less his campaign thus carried on is !
to be recognized as successful and i
unless honestly elected delegates |
shall be thrown out in sufficient num- /
bers to give him majority, he will
