FORAKER SUPPORTS TAFT
Gays All Other Candidates Seek to
Destroy Republican Party.

BY his physician's orders, former
Senator Foraker has been compelled
to decline the invitation to make
speeches this campaign OF course,
as a loyal Republican. he Ia support
ing Taft For quite while the former
senator was in Maine for his health.
and while there he was a keen OBJ
server of the political situation He
declares that the result in Maine was
emphatically q victory for the policy
of protection Upon his return home
he gave highly interesting state
ment to the Cincinnati Commercial
Tribune" from which the following Is
excepted:
1T is the duty, of every Republican
who wants to support the Republican
party and Republican principles to re-
member that. there is no way to sup
port the party and it's principles ex-
cept by supporting President Taft
Nobody else pretends to represent
the Republican party. Every other

open and avowed enemy of the Re-
publican party. All alike are seeking

HADLEY Is FOR TAFT
RooseveIt's Former Manager Comes
Out Squarely for the
President.

Gov. Hadley, of Missouri, who was
one of Roosevelt's managers at the He
publican national convention, and who
had charge of the contest made by
Roosevelt delegates, has declined to
follow the Third Term candidate out
of the Republican party, and has de-
clared that he will support President
Taft In a speech at Jefferson City,
Mo-, he said:
Il hope that these many highmind-
ed but, / believe, mistaken men, who
have thought there was a greater In
terest to be subserved by joining in
the organization of a new party and
the nomination of another State tick
ct, will yet see that by such acts they
are simply doing that which tends to
insure Democratic success. And l
hope that they will come back to the
party which has stood for decency;
that has stood for sane and effective
progress in the conduct of public af-
fairs
After appealing to Republicans to
support the Republican nominees,
Gov. Hadley pointed out In his speech
that the Democrats were pledged to
the same kind of tariff legislation as
they gave to the country after the
Democratic victory of 1892. He said
that no Republican could associate
himself with those whose efforts tend
ed to insure Democratic success

TALKING ABOUT sTRAws.

The Billings (Mont) Daily Gazette.
which has been a strong Roosevelt pa
per until recently. has come over to
Taft the editor giving his reasons for
the change in a double-column article,
declaring that he sees no hope for the
success of the Third Term party, and
is convinced that the cause of real re-
form can be best promoted by con-
tinuing the Republican party In power.
The article particularly emphasizes
the danger of bringing about adverse
business conditions through a change
in administration. and points out the
steady advance which has been made
under Republican policies 1t is a
most significant editorial and as the
Gazette is the most important paper in
Montana, its influence upon the cleo
ton can hardly be measured 1t is only
another one of the innumerable signs
that the Third Term party has col
apsed, that the country realizes the
Tight Is between the Republican party
and the Democratic party. and that no
possible benefit could be derived from
. change

MUST VOTE FOR TAFT
Roosevelt, Who Cannot Be Elected,
Says That Wilson's Election Means
Nationwide Disaster.

Col. Roosevelt, the Third Term Can
didate, cannot possibly be elected.
There is no way in which he can car
ry enough states to give him 266 cleo
toral votes.
But by dividing the Republican
party. Col Roosevelt can aid in elect
in Woodrow Wilson, the Democratic
candidate. Should Wilson be elected?
Roosevelt says that Wilson's election
would plunge this country into nation
wide disaster. Here are Roosevelt's
own words, written in the Outlook of
July, 81, 1912:
If DR.. Wilson were elected, he
would either have to repudiate the
promises made about the tariff in the
Democratic platform of else bring ev-
cry industry fn the country to a crash
which would make all panics in our
past history seem like chiId's play in
comparison. In short, were DR.. Will
son elected on this platform, he would
be obliged at the very outset of his adj
mfnistration to face the alternatives
of dishonesty or disaster, the alterna-
tives of refusing to carry out the ex-
pressed pledges of the platform, or
else of causing such disaster to ev-
cry worker in the country as would
mean nationwide ruin
AS Roosevelt cannot be elected, and
as Roosevelt says that Wilson's cleo
ical conclusion that the vote of the
country must be given to President
Taft

and, withal, his dauntless courage in

WILL DEPEND UPON ELECTION
Politics, Unfortunately, Will Have an
Influence Upon Continued
Prosperity.

In an interview published in New
York. Mr.. James S. Alexander. presi-
dent of the National Bank of Com
merce, said:
Merchants have been increasing
their stocks Labor is well employed
Tremendous crops are assured. The
outlook is7 exceedingly good"
But Mr.. Alexander added that poll
tics, unfortunately were a factor in
the situation and that If present con
ditions were changed by the election
the business world would naturally
suffer.

was Mr. Coulters leading idea, and II
found hearty response among business men,
who gladly devoted some Of their time 10
giving boys what they needed most-per-
sonal interest and sympathy.
The Big Brother movement was started
seven years ago, when forty men assem-
bled at church meeting and accepted MI
Coulter's suggestion TO do real social work
Since then the membership has increased
70 seven hundred, and OF the boys ar
raisned in the Childrens Court last year
2.i95 had the benefit Of the friendship OF
those men. That the effort was worth
while, Mr.. Coulter said, MAS shown by the
fact that only ninety Of those boys had
10 be taken into court again
Mr. Coulters resignation from the clerk
ship does not mean that his active interest
in the lot OF juvenile delinquents viii cease
In announc ng his resignation yesterday, he
said he would continue to work for the
cause Of the unfortunate children, and de-
vote as much time to II as his law prac-
tice would permit. There are various inn
provements In tho treatment OF juvenile
delinquents which he would ike TO see
enacted into law, and he said he would use
his test efforts 10 this end
The principal necessity, lie said was to
provide for mental and physical eXamina-
lions Of children taken into court for re-
peated serious offences. Under present
conditions there was no provision for such
an examination. he said, though DR.. NJ. G.
Schlapp the alicnist had for the last two
years given much Of his time TO examining
children sent TO him.
But such voluntary action, by man
whose time is burdened with work, is not
enough" said Mr. Coulter. I'VE cannot
impose upon DR.. schlapps kindness. and
the large number Of cases that ought to be
examined would fully justify the appoint
nent Of regular staff for that purpose.
The next provision necessary Is that Of an
institution for boys found to be mentally
defective, as they do not fit into any re-
formatory we have now
In the ten years Of his connection with
the Children Court Mr.. Coulter has seen
almost 100000 children brought UP before the
court. HIS experience, he said, showed
him that the cause of delinquency in most
instances was wrong environment, and that
hercdlty could be blamed only in cases OF
mental deformity.
III is not alone the environment of pow
erty that drives the children into mis-
chief" he said, but there were many
cases where some materially better situated
children arc driven into con1lct with thc
law by lack of sympathy and proper moral
care"
Mr.. Coulter will start on lecture tour III
Canada at tho end OF this week 20 rouse
ale interest of the Canadian people toward
establishing children's courts. After his
return he will begin his law practice IN
rartnership with Charles G. Bond and
Frank G. Mckinney.
