ROOSEVELT WINS OVER
TAFT IN TEXAS
Has Safe Lead, but Uninstructed Vote
May Hold Balance Of
Power.
rBy Associated Press.l

Dallas, Texas, May S.-Roosevelt 8.
will go to the state republican con-
vention with good lead over Taft in
instructed delegates, but without sure
control, according to returns from two
thirds of yesterdays conventions.
Roosevelt instructed delegates report
ed up to noon number II and Taft As.
The balance of power lies apparently
with the uninstructed delegates.
Though nominally the republican
convention has 252 delegates, making
127 sufficient to control, yet the fail
ure of numerous Texas counties to
hold conventions is expected to re-
duce the number necessary to con-
troll Few counties, according to re-
ports today, held opposition conven-
tions yesterday, after the supposedly
final instructions had been announced.
These contests are not materially af-
fecting the returns.

THE HAM REVIVAL
Interest Awakening with Each Service
and Souls Being Saved.

The order OF the service at the tab
ernacfe last night was reversed and
instead of Evangelist Ham doing the
talking 1t was done by the people. At
the close of the song service he in
vited all who had a word to say, either
of testimony or confession, to speak
right out. One by one the Christian
people arose at their seats, testifying
to what Jesus had done for them and
confessing their faults, and in Just a
short time regular old-fashioned tes-
timony meeting was in progress.
1t was a great meeting. The Chris
tian people we're happy in the knowl
edge OF a Savior's love, and quite a
number OF sinners were brought to
Christ Many others asked the prayers
of the Christians.

Nor does the husband. if he is

her rights as an individual; he re-
spects her personal liberty of

hasn't picked out for a wife child
who is to be dictated to at every
turn nor fool who must have

ago. If the interview rad in reality
been given by third person it
would probably have been contrived
more cleverly for the presidents
political advantage
He advanced the most convincing
argument for the election of Nj.
Wilson that has yet been contrib
uted to the campaign
Mr.. Taft declared first that the
tariff is responsible for the high
cost of living second, that the tar
if ought TO be reduced third, that
it ought to be reduced scientifically.
If President Tafts conclusions are
correct there is no alternative for
philanthtopic and patriotic citizen
but to vote for Mr.. Wilson.
Obviously, if the American pro-
tective tariff is responsible for the
high cost of living which at present
prevails all over the world, then
undoubtedly our voters owe to their
own country and 10 other friendly
ratiOnS the humanitarian duty of
relieving the oppressive burden of
the high cosJ Of living in America
and elsewhere by promptly reduc-
ing the American protective tariff.
Obviously again if it is the duty
of our considerate and conscien-
tious citizens to reduce the tariff
it is their plain duty not to vote for
Mr.. Taft, who had four years OPP
portunity to reduce the tariff and
did not do it, nor to vote for MI
Roosevelt, vino had seven years
opportunity to reduce the tariff and
did not do it. but to vote for Mr..
Wilson, who wants to reduce the
tariff and positively will reduce the
tariff if given an opportunity to
do it.
Obviously, Furthermore and final
ly. a scientific reduction of the tar
itf does not consist in doing nothing
at all to the tariff as was done
throughout Mr. RooseveIt's two
terms, nor yet i'm dishonesty in
crcasing the tariff in spite of party
pledges, as WAS done With Mr..
Taft's consent and approval during
his term.
Scientific reduction of the tariff
consists rather in iudfciouslv and
dlScriminatingly modifying the tar
itC in way carefully calculated to
benefit all the people of the United
states, be they employers or labor
ers, producers o. consumers.
To secure and insure such scion
tifc modification of the American
tariff beg most respectfully to
suggest TO Governor Wilson the
following course:
First the abandonment Of all
Old stock free trade arguments
based upon fallacies and upon eX-
ploded theories and upon premises
which have been proven to be false
by the practical and improbable
experiences of free trade nations
like England
Second, the recognition of the
principle of protection of Ameri-
can industries and the wise and
just application of that principle
to those industries which require
and deserve protection.
Third, the modification Of the
protective tariff on the one hand by
reciprocity, which will open the
markets Of foreign nations to our
products in return for the opening
Of our markets to their products.

butted into the plate glass front OF
Elken Bros office Tuesday, shatter-
ing the glass and crushing in the
woodwork. A steam radiator against
the wall on the inside probably pre-
vented the machine from going into

of pressing a lever, causing the ma
chine to jump forward in place OF
coming to a stop as intended. The
machine was injured Another man
drove into T. G. skalet's store front

A young fellow in town is reported to
have ditched the machine he was driv-
ing. Fortunately nobody was hurt in
these accidents.
