Topeka, Kans.. Oct. 3.-Former U. s:
Senator Chester I. Long Of Kansas, who
has had charge Of the Taft end Of the
legal proceedings to GUST the Progressive
party from the state ticket, says Taft
managers will make determined effort
to carry Kansas, now that the Roose
welt forces in that state have capitu-
lated and permitted the Taft and sher-
man electors to go on the ballot in the
Republican column.
Mr.. Long says that the attitude of
the Roosevelt electors in trying to keer
their places in the Republican column
although they had no intention of voting
for the Republican nominees, had weak,
ened the former president materially.
'The fact that Justice has at last
been accorded regular Republicans is
undoubtedly due to the formation of
the Republican party league with its
thousands of members, each one pledg,
ed not to vote for anybody who wa.
supporting Roosevelt" declared Mr.
Long.

Chicago. Oct. 3.-Reporrs received at
Republican headquarters here. regarding
the great receptions accorded Colonc!
Roosevelt in the West, caused the West
ern managers to send out letters ask
ing for verifcation of such reports.
Replies to the committees inquiries
which are pouring in daily declare that
the enormous throngs' said to have met
Roosevelt are what in Chicago and L.
linois would be called Ordinary crowds :"
In some places large numbers did see
Roosevelt but in joining the people who
welcomed him many were not actuated
by admiration but merely curiosity, the
reports declare.
Many of the new towns in the West
which seeking publicity and advertise
ment took advantage of Roosevelts ap-
pearance to gain advertising for their
towns. 1t is even said that in many
of the towns the arrangements for the
Roosevelt reception were directed by
the local commercial clubs, who regard
ed the publicity as an asset and with
this view made the request that the
business men generally, regardless OF
political affiliation, and in making the
event a notable one.
Probably the most spectacular occur

population in 1857 eagerly seized the
opportunity Of advertising their flower
gardens by covering the path of Roose'
welt from his train to his carriage with
roses and generously pelting the Bull
..loose leader with flowers.
In some cities newspaper writer's were
placed in automobiles and driven over
the town and each place of interest
pointed out in the hope that the news
paper men would send in Feature
story to their newspapers in the East
These towns and cities are anxious Il
have Eastern capital investigate thei,
possibilities. Tt is upon such Incident
as this according to the statement SEN
the Democratic and Republican newspa+
pers in Chicago that tho accounts o
tlla "wonderfu! receptions" accorded t
Colonel Roosevelt have been based.
Joseph B. Healing of the bureau O

On October the entire nation will
celebrate the birthday Of James Whit
comb Riley, the Hoosier poet, who
once upon time sighed to be clown
in a circus.
James Whitcomb Riley not forged its
other ideals, the famous American
poet would undoubtedly have been
dcnown as a great actor. Such was
his earliest ambition, and even to this
day, despite the fame that has come
to him as a writer Of verse, he is still
enamored OF the theatre and frankly
confesses that he is Just as ''stage
days in the little town Of Greenfield,
Ind, when he had prominent place
on the program of every local entertain
ment and in the cast Of every home
talent production.
It was not the stage itself, however.
that made first appeal to the youthful
Riley, but an older form Of amusement
the circus. He would be clown, and
the funniest clown in all the world
OF course, according to his day dreams
he would have to go away from home
and travel call over, but then he would
come back some day, and that would
be the great day. All painted white and
wearing big, baggy clothes and a funny
little cap, he would take his place in
the ring where the lady rode the fiery
horse, and he would play jokes on the
handsome man with the whip. All the
people would be just ''tickled to death"
1.A ~,
he was and wouldn't they be surprised
In preparation for this he and the
"fellers' organized opera and circus
troupes and with an old piece of carpet
for tent gave shows, where the price
Of admission was twenty pins; and the
audience as composed Of the small girl
Of the neighborhood who minded the
smaller brothers who had not yet reach
ed the age when they could be per-
formers y
Later in life, when he grew sick and
tired Of the law books his father in.
sisted he must study, James Whitcomt
Riley. suddenly took his departure from
Greenfield with patent medicine doc
tors Highly Entertaining and Instruc
tive Musical ana Speciality Aggregation.
Throughout an entire season he toured
the country with this organization, play
ing the drum in the band, .lecturing, Re
citing poems and giving limitations
41ungry sometimes, wet and shelterless
soon as threadbare as the rest, he en-
dured all sorts Of hardshisSaak but itsha,
never been recorded that his enthusiasm
for: the histriontcv art ever abated o,
that he ever complained because tn
ghost failed to walk with regularity
He stuck it out until the season closed
and them managing to get hold Of :
new coat and a little money to Jingle IL
Ibis pocket he made his way home, thor
oughly satisfied with himself and tn
world.
Mr.. Riley has enjoyed the persona
friendship of many famous actors
among whom may be mentioned Sill
Henry Irving. Mr.. Irving always con
sidered it special treat to hear Jane
Whitcomb Riley read his own poems
and once remarked that ''the America
stage lost its greatest actor when MI

iously as a life work"

The opening day Of the Industrial ex-
position was Educational day. Commits
sioner Of Agriculture Gilbreath, general
manager Of the exposition, realized that
the school children could in no better
manner be instructed regarding the re-
sources and products Of their home state
than by visiting North Dakota's own
land show under the guidance Of their
teachers. Consequently the pupils Of the
Bismarck schools and Mandan schools,
besides the nearby rural schools were
admitted to the main exposition building
absolutely free Of CHARGE
Nearly all Of the exhibits are in place
and with only. few slight exceptions.
the entire exposition was ready for the

TAT 7 TO HAVE
GOOD MESSAGE:

Tacoma, WASH, Oct 3.-Within the
next four or five days President Taft
will receive a letter mailed in this city
today which should make ,n1im very
happy. It is from Mrs. Francis King
Sears, member from Washington Of the
Advisory Board Of the National Wo-
mans Republican association. Mrs.
Sears has stopped long enough in her
mems Republican association. Mrs.
Sears has stopped long enough in her
whirlwind campaign to write the fol-
lowing:
There is plenty Of Taft sentiment in
Washington. The best and most reli-
able business men in Tacoma and Seat
tie are Taft Republicans, while the
third termers have only a few fairly
prominent men and just one woman OF
influence. I suspect that many Wilson
people, frightened at the prospect Of
hard times, will repeat their funk Of
1896 and secretly vote against their own
ticket. An occasional Democrat, you
know, especially an old timer in the
Northwest, has sense enough to see that
prosperity and Republican rule are in
separable.'

Republican Meeting.

Last evening Thomas E. Campbell, republican candidate for congress, ad- dressed the people of Kingman. at Elks Opera House. Quite an audience filled the house to listen to the issues as expounded from a republican stand point. and the speaker received con- siderable applause. He was introduc- ed by Ross H. Bakely, and at once passed into a review of Col. Roose- velt's history and the reason why he should not at this time be opposing the reelection of Pres. Taft.
 Mr.. Campbell covered the issue of the tariff, which he considered the vital issue of the mpaign, and stated that if he was Arizona's representative in congress he would stand with the old guard for high protective duties on wool, hides, cattle, metals and everything that Arizona produced in competition with imports.
 During the day Mr. Campbell visit ed the towns of Gold Road and Oat. man, and was agreeably surprised with what he saw there in the way of production of big gold bars.

Democratic Rally.

Last Thursday night rally of the
 democrats was held in Elks Opera
 House, Congressman Carl Hayden,
 Wiley k. Jones. and Sam B. Bradner addressing the people on the issues that will be met in this campaign. The meeting was called to order by
 E. F. Thompson, who introduced Dr. John R. Whiteside, as chairman of e meeting. Dr. Whteside made nice little address and introduced MT. Bradner. The gentlemen spoke on the referendum and amendment meas ures that will be voted on at the cleo tion next month. The principal meas ures that met his favor were the mat ters relating to the railroads. the headlight bill, full crew bill. semi monthly pay day, car limit of trains, three years service for engineers and conductors. These measures were put up to the people by the railroads, the referendum having been invoked Mir. Bradner, who has been railroad man all his life, believes that the people should vote each and every one of them into the statute books. The other measures were amendments to the constitution allowing the state to engage in certain pursuits, such as would be of benefit to the people and also to enlarge the powers of the state tax commssslOn.
 Congressman Hayden explained his vote on many of the important meas ures. MT. Hayden is an agreeable talker and as he is one of the best fel, lows in the world the people received him and his address with hearty good will.
 Wiley Jones, known all over Ari- zOna as the democratic warhorse, was the last speaker and he devoted near. ly all his remarks on the candidacy of Roosevelt. Mr. Jones received the high vote for democratic elector at the late primary and is making the cam- paign ID the interest of the candicacy of Wilson and Marshall. He is an able orator and the audience enjoyed his talk hugely.
 Aside from the election of it's can- didates the one best subject diated on at this meeting was the importance of the people going to the polls and registering their approval of all, each and every one of the referendum, init iative and constitutional measures that will appear on the ballot. There is not one that should not become law Everybody should have listened care- fully to Mr. Bradner's remarks, and had they done so their votes will be cast in favor of all the measures on the nth Of nayt NOvpmhp

 Judge J. D. Bethune, one of the best known jurists of the state in early days, died at his home in Los Angeles few days ago. He was we'll and favorably known to many Kingman people and his death will cause regret among the old timers.
 George Holstein. who sold hls busi- ness in Kingman and went to Wyoming to reside, is in Kingman again and says that this is the only place he has seen In which he would have a home. It is probable that he will again take up business pursuits.
 Owing to the crowded condition of the freight house the railroad con- pany is building a new freight ware- house on the north side of the track in Kingman. The freight received at Kingman is on the increase daily, and although the people haul goods away from warehouse and cars as rapidly as possible the big warehouse is in a con. stant state of congestion. This is an indication of the growing importance. of Klngman as distributing point.
