ROOSEVELT IS
 OUT AGAINST TAFT
BY WINFIELD JONES.

Washington, Mar. 1,-As fore. casted last week, former Presi- dent Roosevelt has definitely en- tered the lists against President Taft for the Republican nomina. tion for president. The issue is now sharply drawn between the two men, between the standpat and the radical wings of the Re publican party, and the battle will be fought to a finish before the Chicago conveD tion.
 Nothing more favorable for Democratic success at the polls , next November could have hap i pened. Roosevelt's hat in the ring" absolutely assures the cleo. tion of a Democratic president.
 The Republican party is now split wide open, and is between the devil and the deep sea- Tho situation is this: If Taft wins the nomination he will have to run on an old line, protective tariff, and standpat platform. The radicals in the party will then either stay away from the polls or vote the , Democratic ticket, If Roosevelt captures the nomination the old line Republicans will take no inD terest in the November election. Any way it is figured the Repub licanS are in a worse situation than before the Rough Rider an nOunced his candidacy. Neither Republican candidate will be sat- isfactory to the great independ- ent vote. Roosevelt, according to his Columbus speech, is more radical than a Socialist. The peo pie don't want that kind of man in the White House. Taft, owned by the protected tariff interests. is more conservative than any President in many years. The people have already turned down their thumbs for Taft. The two factions are at daggers drawn. This is sl own by the laconic statemant of former Speaker Cannon, who said on being told of Roosevelt's announcement, Il am a Republican, not a Populist. " Cannon is one of the chief back CTS of the Taft campaign,
 Should Roosevelt, by a stam- pede in the Taft convention, sue ceed in capturing the nomina- tion, he will be doomed to a worse defeat at the polls than even Taft. The people of this country don't want a man on horse back" They don't want any third term presidents. There is doubt that Roosevelt, such is his insane ambition, would, if he could, occupy the White House for life. He wants a third term. After that he would want fourth term. A little reflection will convince anybody t h t Roosevelt is the most dangerous man in the United States. He would become king if such a thing were possible. The peo- pie know this, and if he is the Republican nominee they intend to administer a severe rebuke in the national election to the form, CT Presidents boundless ego tism, and to retire him where he belongs, to politicial oblivion.
 Roosevelt's entire course in regard to a third term has been marked by duplicity and decep. tion. Says Representative Kahn

DEMANDS FOR
FRUIT CROWN c
Scotland Commission Men
Want Fruit from Here
Calls Coming in From All
Sections for Bayfield,
County Fruit

The fame of the Bayfield, county
region as fruit district is spreading
far and wide and demand for fruits
from this section is growing every
year and the supply at the present
time is only drop in the bucket"
as compared with the demand. Calls
for fruit from this section have been
coming in from all parts of the
United States and this week a letter
was received by Robt. Schroth from
Lamb, Reid & Drummond, Edin-
burgh, Scotland. asking for consign-
ments of fruit from this section to
their Fruit houses in Edinburg,
Leith and Glasgow. These people
are handlers of only the best quality
of apples and pears, doing business
with the higher class of trade. These
people had heard of the high class of
fruit being raised in the Bayfield,
county region and were desirous of
getting it for their trade.
Most of the.apples raised in Bayfield,
county are consumed by Bayfield,
county people and until some of the
larger orchards come into bearing,
shipments to outside points cannot
be made on very large scale. There
is no territory in the United States
that can raise finer fruit than the
Bayfield, county region and this terri
tory will not be able to supply the
demand.

Gives the Raeson

In an interview published in
the Milwaukee Daily News last
Saturday Attorney John Walsh
of this city, who is one of the
leading democrats of the North
ern part of the state, gives an
explanation why "Ikey Karel"
was defeated for governor of the
state at the last election. In the
interview Mr.. Walsh lays Kar-
els defeat to the support given
him by the stand-pat republi
cans of the state. Mr.. Walsh
says that this is a progressive
state and that the Democratic
party, to win and to build it,
self on a substantial founda-
tion, must stand for social and
industrial justice. 1t must
pledge itself to legislation found
ed on those principles and until
it does this it can not hope to
command the support and aid of
the voters. 1t was because 1t
took this stand SO far as nation
al politics was concerned that t
was successful in the nation at
the recent election.
"There must be no allying it,
self by the Democratic party in
any manner with the stalwart
or stand-pat republicans. 1t
was the stand-pat Republican
support that was given the
Democratic state ticket that it
was defeated in the recent cleo
tion ip this state.

and there is talk of forming a league

Hundreds of Men Engaged
in the business
BAYFIELD, is the Center of In
dustry and Many Men
are Employed

From now until the ice stops the
boats from running among the Apostle
Islands Bayfield, will be the center OF
great activity in the handling of fish
and getting sthem ready for ship
ments to outside points.
This is the time of the year when
herring run" and it is during this
time that the greater number of fish
are caught. EVERY available tug
gasoline boat and sail boat around
Bayfield, is being pressed into service
to take care of the business which
is large one. Thousands of pounds
of fish are received daily at Bayfield,
and to take care of them requires
many men. The Sfsh are
caught in nets set among the islands
and they are rhauled to Bayfield, by
boat where they are cleaned and
prepared for shipment. In past sea-
sons as much as one hundred tons OF
fish have been received at Bayfield,
in one day but it is not likely that
that number will be reached during
the spresent season for the business is
not carried on as extensively as it
was some years ago.
Several large fish companies are
operating again this year, among
them being the Booth Fisheries Co.
and the Jacob Johnson Fish. COM
pony. Besides these there is sever
al individuals who are engaged in the
business.
