Mr.. TAFT AND THE STUMP.

The announcement that Mr.. Tart
will not take the stump for reelection
as he did for denomination has oc-
casioned a renewal OF expressions OF
regret at his course in replying in per
son to the assaults of Mr.. Roosevelt,
says the Washington Star.
1t was an unpleasant duty, and prob
ably undertaken with reluctance. But
a duty it was. A condition, not a
tneory, confronted Mr.. Taft. No man
in his high place had ever before
been attacked as he was being attack.
ed by a man who had himself occupied
the White House. BY reason OF he
great honors ne had enjoyed, Mr..
Roosevelt was an unusual antagonist,
and Mr.. Taft decided upon an unusual
course in meeting him.
There was some wonder at the time
that Mr.. Taft had no assistance. NO
conspicuous orator in his party took
the stump for him. In Illinois, Pen
nsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, M~assachu-
sets and New Jersey he presented
his W case, and stood almost alone.
Then, however, the fight bore the
aspect somewhat of a duel between
Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft, and 9TH
ers stood at attention and looked on.
The situation is different now. As
the republican candidate, regularly
nominated, Mr.. Taft can afford to
leave his case in the hands OF his
party friends. They may be expected
to champion his case in a.! their de-
liverances, and combat whatever is
urged against him and his admins.
tration either by Roosevelt support
ers or Wilson supporters. Mr.. Tart
stands for his party, and his party
must stand for him.
Mr.. Roosevelt is TO resume stump
ing, and, Of course, Will renew his at
tacks on Mr.. Taft. But his only new
material will relate to the Chicago
convention, and the defense of the
convention very properly belongs to
those who shaped the proceedings
there. The men who met and foiled
the fake contests from the south, who
defeated the roughhouse tactics OF
Boss Flynn, and, under the calm guild
ance of Mr.. Root, nominated a ticket
and adopted a platform. are compe-
tent to meet all criticism OF the course
they pursued, whether advanced by
MIR. Roosevelt and his friends or by
Mr.. Wilson and his friends.
MI. Taft, in the light Of these
things, can afford to leave the stump
now to others, and is we'll advised in
the decision he has made. Among his
supporters are men Of the highest po-
litical credit and of the first order of
stumping talent, and when they open
cry for him and his party, as they
will shortly do, te republican cause
should enjoy an infusion of ginger it
has hitherto appeared ito lack.

William Sooy Smith.

General William Sooy Smith, who
was General Grants chief of cavalry
in the Vicksburg campaign, was born
in Tarlton, Ohio, July %, 1880, and
graduated from the West Point acad-
envy in 1853. General Smith served
with distinction through the greater
part OF the civil war-until disabled
by illness nea the close of the strug-
gle-but his fame rests more upon
his achievements as a civil engineer
than his military record. For many
years he was regarded as n of Am
erica's formost civil engineers. He
practiced the profession in Chicago
in the sos and again took it up after
the close of the war. In the construc-
ton of the lighthouse at the western
entrance to the Straits Of Macinac,
General Smith was the first engineer
in the world to use pneumatic Gals
sons. He built the first all.steel rail
way bridge in the world, at Glasgow,
Mo-, and numerous other bridges by
the pneumatic process. BY the same
means he completely changed the
methods Of constructing the heavy
buildings in Chicago and other large
cities. Since his retirement from ac-
tive work some years ago General
Smith has made his home near Med
ford, Ore.

To the west there are the two thriv-

these nave been coming to the front
rapidly 10 the west Meloland is now
promising 10 break forth as a town,
while il The far northwest WeStmOre-
land has Decn doing some things dur
ing the recent months to give it a
definite place on the map.
The extension of the irrigation canals
to the GDrthward is opening the posi-
bilify cf town making in that direc-
tion, and there will, in all probability.
be something doing in that direction in
the near future, with a town at the
junction and another between the
junction and Brawley.

FRUITS GAIN ATTENTION

something Of interest in fruits which

Then the fact developed that there
are hundreds of farmers in the valley
who are giving thought to the possi-
hiiities for fruit growing and are max
ing small experiments along this line.
in the way Of grapes the valley had
already made something of a reputa-
tion. but there are varieties Of fruits
now growing in the valley whose fame
is legion. and out of this is emerging
a half dozen varieties which are
destined to add greatly to the prosperi-

deciduous, adeciduous. citrus, vinou>
and palmaceous varieties. taking in the
whole long list Of those which have
won prosperity for the countries of

EDUCATION ADVANCES
WITH WONDERFUL STRIDES

From the earliest days Imperial val :
ley has been noted for the splendid
schools maintained, alike in country
and town, and the last year has seen
marked improvements along this line,
the valley as a whole keeping abreast
of developments in other directions.
Ell CentrO has built new high
school at cost furnished of S75, 900
and Brawley has Just taken steps to
build fine high school building. I'M
perial and HOltville were before this
splendidly equipped in this way, and
CaleXico IS leading UP to provision of
a permanent nature.
Many of the country districts have
In the last year found that further
improvements were required. and The,
supervisors still find it desirable from
time to time TO create new districts.
1t is the testimony Of specialists who
have visited the valley that the schools
here are i'll the forefront of those OF
the state, and the people of tn valley
are determined to maintain that repu-
tatiOn.

than a hundred thousand acres to the
irrigated area. The gain to the valley
from this and other lines of develop
meHt this year will probably reach
close to 10000 acres. leading far
toward the total in the irrigation dis
trict.
The district organization has thus
far done no surprising things, but has
by steady steps approached the con-
summation Of its work. The fact thai
there were number of questions in
the court that indirectly affected the
district has led to a waiting policy.
Irrigation service by The mutual com

the year in a more satisfactory way.

The reliability of the water service has
