In = recent speech at Philadelphia,
President Taft declared himself to be
q Progressive. Colonel Roosevelt. In
commenting upon that speech. has
pointed out that there are no better
Judges OF what 10 = neal Progressive
than the men who are now supporting
Mr.. Taft for denomination.
-Four years ago." said Colonel
Roosevelt. tho Progressives support
I'd Mr.. Taft for President. ana he was
opposed BY such Representatives of

Pennsylvania. Mr.. Aldrich Of Rhode
Island and Mr.. Gallinger Of New
Hampshire: ~ Messrs. Lorimer, Can.
non and Mckinley Of Illinois: and he
was opposed BY practically all the
men Of the stamp Of Messrs. GuGgen.
helm and Evans Of Colorado. and
Mr.. Patrick Calhoun ;, Of San Fran
cisco. These men were not Progress.
sives then. and they do not pretend to
be Progressives now. But. unlike the
President, they know who 10 a Pro.
gressive and who 10 not. Their judg.
mont In the matter IL good After
three and . half years Of association
with and knowledge Of tho President.
those and their fellows are now the
Presidents chief supporters; and they
and tho men who feel and act as they
do In business and in politics give
him the great bulk of his strength.
The President says he Is Progress.
sive. These men know him we'll and
have studied his actions for three
years. and they regard him as being
precisely tho kind Of Progressive
whom they approve"
This gives special point to an inter.
view given by John D. Rockefeller at
his ohaces at rs Broadway, New York,
ON October 30. 1908. just q few days
before the election at which Mr.. Taft
was chosen to the Presidency.
Mr.. Rockefeller declared that he in.
tended to support Mr.. Taft because,

ness and temperament entirely on his
side. Tho election Of Mr.. Taft will.
believe, make for law and order and
stability Of business. He is not man.
Judge. to adventure with rash ex-
periments or to impede return to
prosperity. by advocating measures
subversive Of industrial progress.
1T cannot be said that the present
administration (President Roosevelts)
has in any way favored the special in
terests to which my life has been de-
voted"
Mr.. Rockefeller had not been at the
omces Of the Standard OIL Company
for several years when he gavc on.
this interview. but no regarded his
declaration for Mr.. Taft ~ OF such
importance that he went to the once
for the special purpose Of giving the
interview. No one has ever accused
Mr.. Rockefeller Of being q Progressive.

Fort Dodge, April 26.-J. J.. Scanlon,
a blacksmith of this city, is out a horse
and much sleep. He gave tramp

The Old Sexton.

Nigh to a grave that was newly
made,
Leaned a sexton old on his earth
worn spade;
A relic of bygone days was he,
And his locks were white as the
foamy sea;
And these words came from his lips
so thin:
Il gather them in, l gather them in.
4 gather them in for man and boy
Year after year of grief and joy,
I've builded the houses that lie
around,
In every nook of this burial ground.
Mother and daughter, father and son.
Come to my solitude one by one;
But come they strangers or come
they kin
4 gather them in, | gather them in,
MANY are with me, but still I'm
alone.
I'm king of the dead-and ! make
nay throne
On a monument slab of marble cold
And my scepter of rule is the spade
/ hold;
Come they from cottage or come they
from hall,
Mankind are my subjects, all, all,
all,
Let them loiter in pleasure or toll
Il gather them in, | gather them in.
Il gather them in, and their final
rest
Is here, down here. in the earth's
dark breast"
And the sexton ceased, for the
funeral train
Wound mutely Ger that solemn
plant
And | said tt my heart. when time is
told,
A mightier voice than that sections
Will sound DER the last trump's
dreadful din
Il gather them in, l gather them in.
