Voters Switched With Him.

Considerable amusement was caused
bv the speakers statement that two
wears ago the campaign argument
was used shat he was unified for the
office of Senator because he was poor
and did not represent ''big business.
This year, when, owing to his success
in mining ventures he had aceumulat-
ed considerable wealth, the cry was
that he had too much money TO go 60
the Senate and would naturally be IN
sympathy with the moneyed interests.
The speaker paid his respects to the
commerce court, promised to vote for
an income tax and equal franchise
and closed an excellent Democratic ali
dress by again admonishing his hear,
ers to be sure and vote for their
principles on election day and not al
low themselves to be G. joled by sym
pathy to vote otherwise, or to be
coerced or intimidated into doing any
thing but their plain duty.
At the conclusion, Judge Robins
proposed three cheers for Pittman ana

TAFT CERTAIN OF
AT LEAST 260 VOTES

The Republican National committee
has declared victory for President
Taft at the coming election and pre-
sented its first detailed list of electoral
votes claimed for him This table
shows that $50 votes are now claimed
as sure for the Republican National
ticket and 1872 votes are conceded to
Governor Wilson, including Califor-
MIA and south Dakota, where the
Roosevelt men have kept the Taft
electoral votes off the ballot.
In the doubtful column 119 votes
have been placed, including Tennessee
and Oklahoma, hitherto regarded as
Democratic states, while Illinois and
Missouri are confidently placed in the
Taft column.
The statement, signed by Daniel
Mulvane, director and Joseph B.
Heating, head of the organization
bureau, is as follows
Careful investigation shows that the
following states may be set down in
the Taft column now with small like
lihood that anything can happen which
will necessitate change:
Connecticut z; Delaware, 3; Idaho,
4; Illinois, 90; Iowa, 10; Maine, 6;
Massachusetts, IS; Maryland, 8;
Michigan, Is; Missouri, 1s; Montana,
4; New Hampshire, 4 New York, 43;
Ohio, "a; Oregon, 5; Pennsylvania, 80;
Rhode Island, s; Utah, 4; Vermont, 4;
Washington, Z; Wisconsin, 13; Wyom-
ing 81 New Mexico, s. Total, 2S0.
The following are the states which
Governor Wilson is likely to carry:

lima, -; South Carolina, 9; South Da-

Several nominally Republican states
are doubtful because the third party
may take enough votes from the Re-
with a plurality. While the Repub

which leads them to believe these
states will remain loyal to the Repub-

Senator Hepburn Dies in Washington.
! United States Senator Weldon Brin-
ton Hepburn, of Idaho died at his
apartments in Washington Thursday
night after lingering Illness He was
60 years old and had been in the Sen
ate nine years.
I During the last few years, since the
I development of serious division in
| the Republican ranks, Senator Hey
burn had played prominent part in
the fight for party regularity. He al
WAYS opposed Colonel Roosevelt s con
servation ideas and many of his
speeches on the development of the
west, in which he was keenly inter
ested, were devoted to arguments
against the former president s policies.
Senator Hepburn was born in 1882
1 in Pennsylvania. He received an
academic education and was admitted
to the bar in 1876. In 1888 he remov-
ed to Idaho, where he became active
in politics. He was elected to the
Senate in 1908.

Tail of the Fiery Draqon.

One of the peculiarities of the an
cient writer's on natural history sub
jects was the implicit ith which they
placed In the genuineness OF the vari-
GUS basilisk and dragon stories which
were told to them. Brunette, for an
instance to the point, relates with all
soberness that the basiiisk is the king
of serpents. He wears a white crest
upon his head and such is the abun
dance Of bis venom that the air is
poisoned wherever this dire reptile
passes. Trees in which he makes his
home eXha!e such poisonous Odor
that birds in flying over are so over
come with it that they fall to the
ground dead.
The dragon,' says the same an
thor, ais the very largest Of serpcnts
and inhabitS especially India and Eth
opia. When he flies out Of the caveruS
in which he makes his home he fur
rows the air with such violence as to
make it CLEAN with fire. His mouth is
small, and he has not the power to in
fict deadly wounds with his teeth.
In his tail. however. his power lies.
and with it he can instantly strangle
the largest elephant"

In Durham any nnisbehavfng boy was
punished publicly after the service was
over. We would nowadays scarcely
seat twenty or thirty active boys to-

to be models Of attention and dignified

They Would Tend to Lower the Cost Of
Living.
The 100000 miles Of unimproved
roads which the country has to its dis
credit are as heavy burden upon the
unfortunate ultimate consumer" as is
an excessive tariff. Every pound Of
produce hauled from the farm to the
market bears an inflated price because
of the excessive cost Of It's transporta.
tion from the farm to the point OF
shipment
For instance, it costs an average of
almost 2 cents more to haul a bushel
of wheat from the farm to the station
nine miles away than it does to ship
bushel of wheat from New York to
Liverpool. 3.100 miles away. This ex-
cessive transportation cost must be
made up by the farmer in charging
more for his wheat. by the miller in
charging more for the -four. by the
baker in charging more for bread and
finally. of course. by the ultimate con
sumer" in paying more for his bread
AS the farmer and the miller are also
consumers. the excessive cost of road
ransporta ton really levies tax upon
ALL Whatever doubt there may have
been about the need for systematic
road improvement in the United States
