Theodore Roosevelt has been induc-
ed to agree 10 accept the nomination
for President because a large number
of Republicans doubt if Mr. Taft can
be reelected. 1t is generally conced-
ed tnat Roose welt can De elected, be
cause the people are for him. He vii
be nominated if the people are given
q chance to express their preference.
The primary is the Roosevelt way OF
making the nomination, but as the
this time. the township mass-meeting
is the next best method. Township
mass meetings should be ordered by
the Republican Central Committee
of this county that the people III
their respective townships may have
an opportunity to register their SEN
ments. The township mass meet
ing is both lair and practical, as the
delegates to the State and district
conventions must be elected for the
purpose of sending delegates to the
3ationa} convention. The County
committee should order township
mass meetings. Governor Hadley pre-
fers the primary, but approves the
oWnship meeting plan.

PASSING OF A FRONTIERSMAN,

William Ashley Whitley died at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. Phoebe
Clay, in San Francisco, Cal, on Feb
21st, after an illIess of two weeks
with pneumonia. He was in his
72d year Mr.. Whiteley was born on
Indian Creek, in Washington county
and spent his early life in that vicin-
ity. Speaking of his career San
Francisco paper says:
When Whitley gave up his stub
born fight for life and passed away
with his children and grandchildren
grouped around him. one of the most
picturesque ard courageous figures
in ne history of the West died.
Veteran stockmen and miners of
Montana, Idaho and the Dahotas Will
remember Ashley Whitley as great
hunter and Indian fighter. During
the earliest days of the Black Hills
the frontiersman's presence was
safeguard tc the settlements ever
threatened ty the Sioux.
There are many of those who made
the first dash through the frozen
north to the new Alaskan gold fields
who will remember Whitley as a
courageous leader against the count
less trials and dangers which assailed
the expedition.
In 1861 Whitley left his Missouri
farm and came to San Francisco by
the way OF the Isthmus of Panama.
From the day he landed in the then
village to few years ago, when he
settled down as a contractor. advent
ures besieged Whiteley in astonishing
numbers.
Soon after his arrival he trailed
over the .;jerras to the Constcck
Lode, then in the height of that freil-
zy. Fer several :cars he experienced
in the ninia:s camps of California al d
Nevada the varying fortunes OF a
miner, rom the best to the worst
Some years later found him pros
pec,ing' in tie Wilds of Montana,
where only his rifle procured him
food and n:ry time saved his scalp
from dangling at redskins belt.
Whitley was close friend of the
late Senator George Hearst, whom he
accompanied On many of his prospect
ing tours. it was said at that time
that Hearst could find gold all right
and Whitley could protect the claim
against all comers
Whitley was the great grand
son Of Colonel William Whitley. who
with Daniel Boone, was one of the
historic pioneers OF Kentucky in
Theodore Roosevelt's ''Winning of the
West Colone! Whitley is referred TO
as the finest type of Virginian and
one Of the dauEtless and shrewd in
dian fighters in The history of the
nation.

What Is themeaning of the popular

President Roosevelt to the White
House. blind trust in the ability OF
this man alone to direct the des-
TIMES of the nation? Not for a min

the determination of the people TO
direct certain progress in our gov

is represented in the policies that Mr..
Roosevelt stands for. He is not to
