WILSON POPULAR CAMPAIGNER
BUT LACKS GOOD ORGANIZATION

The country, north, south, east and
west, is prosperous. GOOD prices for
farm and manufactured products pre-
vail everywhere. Farmers and mer-
chants and manufacturers are salts
fled with business conditions. This
is helping Mr.. Taft, who is claiming
credit for the tariff and other Repub,
iican doctrines.
1t is said that the Republicans have
the lead in New York, Ohio, West
Virginia, and other doubtful States.
With the collapse of the Eull Moose
campaign and increased prosperity
Mr.. Taft is getting back many men
who supported him in 1908, but did
not want to DO so again this year.
Interest in New York.
In New York there is a live con-
test over the goVernorship. The Re-
publicans have a fine campaigner,
Job Hedges, and the Progressives a
popular business man, Oscar Straus.
The Democrats nominated William
Sulzer, Congressman, who has fought
Tammany for years. Messrs. Straus
and Sulzer are called "progressives. "
They will split the progressive vote.
Hedges will get the old line Republi.
cans and many conservative Demo
crate 1t looks now as if the State
would go to the Republicans.

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 3-The
political campaign is becoming more
interesting every hour now. AS the
day of the election approaches Presi-
dent Taft gains on his opponents. 1t
became apparent late in September
that Col. Roosevelt was not holding
his own and that Gov Wilson could
not make the inroads on the Repub
lican forces that his friends expected
him to do at the outset of the cam
paign. Taft gained because of this
condition. Many Republicans who
had been on the fence turned to the
Taft side and are now working for the
party's candidate.
After the candidates-Taft, Repub-
lican; Wilson, Democrat, and Roose-
welt, Progressive,-were nominated
and the speeches of acceptance made,
the people waited to see what turn
things would take. Mr.. Roosevelt an
nounced a speaking tour which was
to include about twenty-five. states.
Mr.. Wilson promised few speeches.
President Taft said that he would
spend most Of his time at Beverly, the
home of the summer White House,
and let things rock. The tour of Mr..
Roosevelt was awaited with keen in
terest. for the party leaders wanted
to know how he would take as head
of a new party 1t was soon apparent
after Mr.. Roosevelt started out chat
he would have large and curious
crowds but would not win any voters
to his cause. The more he travelled
and spoke the more the Taft men who
were trailing him realized that the
third-term and third-party movement
was not moving with the revolution
airy stride anticipated at the Bull
Moose convention. Day after day
leading Roosevelt admirers have quit
the new parry and returned to the
Republican camp. In every state this
has been going on.
Wilson Lacks Organization.
Governor Wilson is a popular cam
paigner but he is not supported by a
strong and effective organization.
His managers are takers but no or
ganizers. AS a result the Wilson
campaign has not succeeded. Many
Democratic statesmen fear that the
superior organization of the old Re-
publicans will get the best of the
Wilson forces between this and cleo
ton day. The contest is between
the President and Mr.. WilsOn-be-
tween the Republicans and the Dem
ocrats-the protectiOnists and theI
tariff for revenue only advocates.

Evening capital news. (Boise, Idaho) 1901-1927, 1912-11-10

Percy Girouard, the new governor. At
Kijabe the men and women from the Amer
lean misson-and the children too-were
and at Nakuru the settlers from the neigh
borhood gathered on the platform to give
us a farewell cheer.
The following morning we reached HI.
sunni on Lake Victoria Nyanza. 1t is in the
Kavirondo country where the natives, both
men and women, as a rule go absolutely
naked, although they are peaceable and in
dustrious In the native market they had
brought in baskets, iron spade heads, and
food to sell to the native and Indian traders
who had their booths round about; the
meat market, under the trees, was especially
interesting.
At noon we embarked in a smart little
steamer, to cross the lake. Twenty-four
hours later we landed at Entebbe, the seat
OF the English governor of Uganda.
Throughout our passage the wind hardly
ruffled the smooth surface of the lake. AS
we steamed away from the eastern shore
the mountains behind us and on Our right
hand rose harsh and barren, yet with kind
of forbidding beauty.
Dark clouds hung over the land we had
left, and rainbow stretched across their
front. At nightfall, as the red sunset faded,
the lonely waters of the vast inland sea
stretched, ocean-like, west and south into a
shoreess gloom Then the darkness deep
ened, the tropic stars blazed overhead, and

suggest the grisly horror that brooded so
near. In green luxuriance the earth lay
under cloudless sky, yielding her increase
women were living their lives and doing
their work well and CALAMITY.
Interesting Uganda.
At Entebbe we stayed with the acting
governor, Mr.. Boyle, at Kampalla with the
district commissioner, Mr.. Knowles; both
of them veteran administrators, and the lat
ter also mighty hunter; and both of them
showed US every courtesy, and treated us
with all possible kindness.
Entebbe is pretty little town of English
residents, chiefly officials with well-kept
roads, golf course, tennis courts and an at
tractive club house. The whole place is
powered in flowers, on tree, bush and vine,
of every hue-masses Of lilac, purple, yell
low, blue and fiery crimson.
Kampalla is the native town, where the
little king of Uganda, boy, lives, and his
chiefs of state, and where the native council
meets and it is the headquarters OF the mis-
sions, both Church of England and Roman
Catholic
Kampalla is an interesting place; and so
is all Uganda The first explorers who pen
etrated thither, half century ago, found in
this heather state, of almost pure negroes,
veritable standardization, or advanced bar
barism, comparable to that of the little
Arab-negro or Berber-negro sultanates
strung along the southern edge of the Sa-
hara, and contrasting sharply with the well
tering savagery which surrounded it, and
which stretched away without break for
many hundreds of miles in every direction.
The people were industrious tillers of the
soil, who owned sheep, goats and some cat
tie; they wore decent clothing, and hence
were styled "womanish" by the savages OF
the Upper Nile region, who prided them
selves on the nakedness of their men as a
proof of manliness; they were unusually in
tellgent and tremendously courteous; and,
most singular OF all, although the monarch
was cruel despot, of the usual African
whether Mohammedan or heathen) type,
there were certain excellent governmental
customs, of binding observance, which in
the aggregate might almost be called an UNI
written constitution.
Alone among the natives Of tropical Afri-
ca the people OF Uganda have proved very
accessible to Christian teaching, so that the
creed of Christianity is now dominant
4 among them. For their good fortune, Eng
land has established protectorate over
them Most wisely the English government
officials and as rule the missionaries, have
bent their energies to developing them along

once or twice bullock carts; more often men
carrying rolls of hides or long bales of cot
ton on their heads; or set of Bahima herds
men, with clear-cut features, guarding their
herds Of huge-horned Angola cattle. All
greeted us most courteously, frequently
crouching or kneeling as is their custom
when they salute superior; and we were
scrupulous to acknowledge their salutes,
and to return their greetings in the native
fashion, with words of courtesy and long
drawn e-h-h-s and a-a-h-s.
Along the line of march the chiefs had
made preparations to receive us. Each af-
ternoon as we came to the spot where we
were to camp for the night we found a
cleared space strewed with straw and sur
rounded by a plated reed fence. Within
this space cane houses with matched roofs
of coarse grass, had been erected, some for
our stores one for kitchen, one, which was
always decked with flowers, as a rest-house
for ourselves; the latter with open sides, the
roof upheld by cane pillars, so that it was
cool and comfortable, and afforded well
come shelter, either from the burning sun if
the weather was clear, or from the pelting,
driving tropical storms if there was rain.
Usually at each camp we found either the
head chief of the district, or a sub-chief
with presents; eggs chickens, sheep, once or
twice bullock, always pneapples and ba-
nanas. The chief was always well dressed
in flowing robes, and usually welcomed us
with dignity and courtesy sometimes, how
ever, permitting the courtesy to assume the
form Of servility); and we would have him
in to tea, where he was sure to enjoy the
bread and jam. Sometimes he came in d
rickshaw sometimes in a kind of wicker
work palanquin, sometimes on foot. When
we left his territory we made him return
gift.
The Dangerous Spirillu1n Tick.
We avoided all old camping grounds, be-
cause of the spirillum tick This dangerous
fever tick is one of the insect scourges of
Uganda, for its bite brings on virulent
spirillum fever which lasts internationally for
months, and may be accompanied by partial
paralysis 1t is common on old camping
grounds, and in native villages. The ma
larial mosquitoes also abound in places; and
repeated attacks of malaria pave the way for
black water fever, which is often fatal.
The first days march from Kampalla led
us through shambas, the fields of sweet po-
tatoes and plantations OF bananas being sep
arated by hedges or by cane fences. Then
for two or three days we passed over low
hills and through swampy valleys, the whole
landscape covered by sea of elephant grass,
the close-growing, coarse Blades more than
twice the height Of a man on horseback
Here and there it was dotted with groves Of
strange trees; in these groves monkeys Of
various kinds-some black, some red-tailed,

the enlbers of the sunset.
Islands Empty With the Emptiness of
Death

OcaIn.
Next morning we steamed along and
across the equator; the last time we were to
cross it, for thenceforth our course lay
northward We passed by many islands,
green with meadow and forest, beautiful in
the bright sunshine, but empty with the
emptiness of death.
A decade previously these islands were
thronged with tribes of fisher folk their vii
lagos studded the shores, and their long
canoes, planks held together with fiber, fur
rowed the surface of the lake. Then, from
out of the depths of the Congo forest came
the dreadful scourge of the sleeping sick
ness, and smote the doomed peoples who
dwelt beside the Victorian Nile, and on the
coasts of the Nyanza lakes and in the lands
between.
Its agent was biting fly, brother to the
tsetse whose bite is fatal to domestic ami
mails. This fly dwells in forests. beside
lakes and rivers; and wherever it dwells
after the sleeping sickness came it was
found that man could not live. In this coun-
try, between and along the shores of the
great lakes, 100000 people died in slow tor
ment before the hard-taxed wisdom ard skill
of medical science and governmental admin
istration could work any betterment what
ever in the situation.
Men still die by thousands, and the dis
ease is slowly spreading into fresh districts
But it has proved possible to keep it within
limits in the regions already affected; yet
only by absolutely abandoning certain dis
tricts, and by clearing all the forest and
brush in tracts which serve as barriers to
the fly, and which permit passage through
the infected belts.
On the western shores of Victoria Nyan-
"a, and in the islands adjacent thereto, the
ravages of the pestilence were such, the
mortality it caused was so appalling, that
the government was finally forced to deport
all the survivors inland to forbid all resi-
dence beside or fishing in the lake, and with
this end in view to destroy the villages and
the fishing fleets OF the people.
The teeming lake fish were formerly a
main source of food supply to all who dwelt
near by; but this has now been cut off, and
the myriads Of fish are left to themselves, to
the hosts of water birds, and to the mon
strous man-eating crocodiles of the lake, on
whose blood the fly also feeds, and whence
it is supposed by some that it draws the
germs so deadly to human kind.
When we landed there was nothing in the
hot, laughing, tropical beauty Of the land to

SINCERE STATEMENT
FROM RELIABLE CITIZEN

Your window display in the store of
Mr.. E. J. Sweeney here, reminded me
that my family owed debt of graft
tude to your wonderful preparation
for kidney trouble.
A few years ago my wife suffered
from general breakdown in health.
She was troubled continually with
backache and suffered severely from
nervousness and loss of appetite.
We tried several preparations and
had the services of different physi.
clans who prescribed for her, but she
could not obtain any permanent re-
lief from their treatment.
AT the time l was connected with
the drug business and had heard so
many people speak highly of DR.. Kill
mer's Swamp Root that 1 resolved to
try il.
My wife had only been taking it
short time when she felt much inn
proved. We continued its use for
some time until she felt entirely we'll
and was a hundred per cent better in
every way.
Since that time she has had no re-
turn of the trouble: We always keep
Swamp Root in the house and find it
a wonderful tonic as we'll as 4 great
kidney medicine.
We want to thank you sincerely for
the benefits derived from it's use and
shall never hesitate to recon mend it
to our friends. Yours very tr uly,
