Last Friday, President Taft was
formally notified of his nomination
for the presidency by the late re-
publican national convention. 1t
must have been a great surprise to
him and when the committee an
nounced the purpose of its coming,
it must have been a very anxious
moment to him to learn that he
was really nominated.

dent every day that the agriculture
al districts are awakening to the
need of having someone in sym
pathy with their interests to reDre-
sent them in congress. Party lines
have been obliterated and it has
become simply a question of men
who will work and vote for those
policies that will be for the best in
terests of the people and nation.
1t is to be doubted, that Senator
Dixon of Montana, is an honest
man. For weeks, drawing a sal
airy of $625 per month from the
government, he has spent the time
which belonged to the people, IN
running about the country doing
political work. The people OF his
state should give him a rest and
long one.
The democratic members of the
House of Representatives are now
characterizing Speaker Clark as
car, simply because he is enforc-
ing the rules for the government Of
that troublous body. When Blaine
was Speaker, he was termed a
despot; the accusation was lodged
against Tom Reed, who didn't
care; the mild hammered and peace
able Carlisle; the energetic Crisp;
Uncle Joe Cannon, and now,
Champ Clark is no better than he
ought to be. 1t is time that our
friend Nelson waltzed out with a
illumination against the Speaker,
just to keep in the limelight and
show his constituents that he is
doing something to earn his salary.

TO FIND AWARD
Engineers Will Try to Decide What
Arbitrator Meant in Decision.

Boston. July 13.-To determine ex-
actly what line former President Lou
bet Of France meant in 1900 when as
arbitrator he fixed the boundary lines
between Costa Rico and the portion
Of Columbia which now forms the
republic of Panama. Frank W. Hog
don chief engineer of the port of
Boston. and P. H. Ashby. New York
engineer, sailed from here today for
Port Limon.
They are two of four engineers
chosen as commissioners to interpret
M. Loubet's finding to Chief Justice
White of the United States supreme
court. Costa Rica reopened the
boundary dispute after Panama Sc
ceded from Colombia and the two
countries agreed on Chief Justice
White as the final arbitrator of the
question. The other commissioners
are John F. Hayford of Northwestern
university. and o. NJ. Leland of Cor
nell university.
The commissioners expect to finish
their work in Central America by Oc-
tober first. A preliminary visit to the
Isthmus was made last January. Since
then nearly 100 engineers and assist
ants have been surveying the disputed
line. The contested part of the boun-
dairy is about 100 miles long.

wealthy lsmberman. who had been
closely interested in the Lorimer case
In the senate, to give $4,000 Of a
100000 fund to help put Lorimer

another sensation and resulted in the
T.. opening Of the case in the senate.
sAsf "ial committee of eight began a
re. Socx cation Of the case. Once

nesses were examined.
Meantime Lorimer took his place
daily in the senate chamber and con-
Quoted his own defense against the
charges that that place had been
bought.
The second committee headed by
Senator Dillingham; of Vermont,
brought in majority report again
exonerating Lorimer and a minority
report condemning him.
Again the debate began and for
months the matter was under discus
sion. Finally an agreement was
reached that vote be taken on the
Legislative day" Of July 6-last Sat-
urday. But the debate again grew
bitter and by recessing instead of ad-
journing the senate kept itself on the
legislative day Of July 6 until today,
when the final vote was reached.
Throughout the second investiga-
ton Senator Lorimer's health failed
rapidly. At one time he was kept at
his home in Chicago for weeks. his
physician refusing to allow him to
return to Washington. For this rea-
son the consideration of the second

week to week. to allow him time to
appear in his own defense. He has
been constantly in his place in the
senate. however. since the time for a
vote was fixed.
