GROOMING A DARK HORSE.
CDayepport DemOcrat,1

A notable result of the Illinois pri-
mary is the prompt raising of the
question as to whether President Taft
can be elected If nominated. This
would be entirely natural, if the
Roosevelt camp was the only direc-
ton from which the question came. 1t
is noticeable. however. that the ques-
ton also comes from quarters that are
mainly interested in party success, re-
gardless Of the personality Of the can
didate. 1t is quite evident that there
is a search on for dark horse" who
may be groomed and kept in readiness
for the psychological moment, in the
hope that both the Taft and Roose-
welt republicans can be kept together
for the support of such candidate,
on a platform which will not mean
much at all and which both factions
could stand on. In other words, the
platform will be built simply ito get
in on Justice Hughes, New York's
ex governor, Is oftenest mentioned al
present as the possibility in the dark
ened stall; but 1t is extremely doubt
full if he could be led onto that kind
Of platform.

as much as they are determined to rid
themselves of the Aldrichs, Penroses

path of determined popular move

clans.
President Taft has been deceived by
those closest to him and most trusted
by him. He has never been to them
anything but a means to an end. They
They fought him bitterly when he was
a presidential candidate for the first
time and ridiculed him after he was
elected. AS president he has been to
them merely a decimal point from
which to figure a ratio Of political
power. If they had been able to get
away from his candidacy, if the prom
ises Of federal patronage had not been
necessary to their campaign to retain
control of party machinery he would
have utterly failed of standpat support
for a second term. If they had any
other man to turn to they would drop
him today like a hot potato. AS it is
enough of them will seek cover to
make his nomination extremely prob
lenatical. President Taft has never
had real friends except among the
progressives. That he deliberately or
mistakenly alienated or con,emptuous-
~ dismissed these may be reasons for
sympathy bat not for denomination OF
re election.

the information that these delegates

that they are more concerned in sue

Rockwell, April i6.--In the Felthouse
Bank at this place is a lot of seed corn
shipped in from the north, and testing
both by the Holden process and earth
test over 80 per cent growing ker-
ne!s The bank is doing this not for
the profit in the deal. but TO enable
the farmers about Rockwell to get seed
corn that is sure to germ. mate. 1t is
such a practical business proposition
that other banks ought to take it up
and thus insure good seed corn all over
the state of Iowa.
There's scheme that has been
worked out Of Alden and other places,
that seems to have profitable side
for all engaged in it, and no draw
backs or Niger in the woodpile' fea-
ture. Canvassers are covering the
farms in this vicinity. selling farm
er's account book. 1t is printed and
ruled so that every department of farm
work can be kept separately. For in
stance the hog department can be
charged and credited with all deals
cash ana otherwise. Family expenses
can be accounted for to a cent. In
word with this book the farmer keeps
as complete an account of his bust
ness as banker or manufactures.
This book also contains advertisements
of the merchants of Alden and they
pay nothing for the ads" The farmer
pays say $3.50 for the book, but really
gets it free, for each book has de-
tachable coupons amounting. TO $3.50
due in trade with the merchants
whose advertisements appear in the
book, that is each coupon is taken at
certain percentage on a dollars worth
of trade. The ore-keeper is well sat
isfied with the deal for his profit will
come from some new customers and
his advertising in the book is worth
cash what any advertising is in such
book is worth. The farmer is go
ing to trade many times more in
year than necessary to use UP the cou-
pons. Somebody thought out and
worked out a good scheme in this
deal.
