NOT DOMINATED ~ BOSSES.

If there is n thing more certain
than any other, it is that President
Taft is not dominated by the socalled
political bosses. The truth is that he
refused to be dominated by the great.
est OF modern bosses, Theodore
Roosevelt. If President Taft had
granted all the favors which Roose.
welt asked, II he had appointed to
office all the persons whom Mr., Roose.
welt recommended, andlif he had been,
In short, MI. noosevelt's pnant tool,
he would not today find himself op-
posed for the presidency BY his pred:
ecessor.
MI. Taft has never been dominated
by the so-called bosses. He has made
appointments to Office for the good Of
tie public service and not to oblige
men Who desired recognition for 20.

Taft Is not a politician. The very IRE.

President TAT has a free and cour.

OF suggestions from those who are In

The situation in which Mr.. TAFT
finds himself today, when he Is op.

complete answer TO the untruthful

FARM CROPS AND PRICES.

One of the reasons for the increas.
ing cost of living is furnished by a
census bulletin recently issued, al
though no mention of that detail IS
contained therein. The bulletin shows
that while the market value of the
leading crops increased enormously,
the quantity made only a$slight gain,
in most cases. The aggregate selling
price of the crops of all sorts jumped
from $2,999, OOO, 900 in 1899 to $5,4S7,-
100000 in 1909, or a gain of SO per
cent, while the quantity of those
things, cereal and other, increased
only 80 per cent.
Here is one decidedly obvious cause
of the advance in the cost of living.
While 1909 Is the latest year covered
by this census leaflet, the story which
it tells would merely be emphasized
If it were brought down to to-day.
There has been no material advanct
in the output since 1909, but the mar.
ket value of the aggregate yield has
gone up far in this time. We pay
more for our food, and also for our
clothing, the cotton fabrics as well as
the wooden, than We did then. Ger.
erals increased in production in the
decade here covered by only IL per
cent, but their value rose 79.8 per
cent. Cotton production increased In
that time only Ill per cent, but the
producers got l17.3 per cent more for
their crop.
The remedy, Of course, Is to increase
the output so IS to make II come
nearer meeting the demand thAp ~
has done in recent years. The d pSer
cent growth Of the country's popula-
ton In the past decade was several

MAINE-100O, 1912,

J~nlrty-tWO years ago, thlS very
month of September, the result of a
state election in Maine sobered the
republican party, then divided and ap-
parently headed for a national defeat,
and brought about a republican tri.
umph in November.
1t was this way: The nomination
of Gen. Garfield had made some of the
Grant men angry and left some of the
Sherman men cold. Democratic pros.
poets were exceedingly bright. The
betting odds were on Hancock.
In Maine the democratic state ticket
was led by a man of the name OF
Plaisted, who had what was then
called rag money" leaninEs. The
rag money" men were the predeces.
sors of the free silver men, and threw
the same sort Of scare into the bust.
ness world. un II 14!
Instantly the business world woke
up. Instantly there was a demand
that the republican factions uiite. Mr..
Conkling and Gen. Grant took the
stump for the republican ticket, and
the Sherman men threw off their
apathy. In a fortnight the whole re-
publican aspect of things changed, and
in November Gen. Garfield won.
Until last 4.londay things looked all
but hopeless for the republicans. Yer.
mont had just spoken, and in terms
that emphasized the .party's divisions
and d%istresses. That Maine would
follow suit seemed certain.
But Maine did not follow suit. The
state returned to the republican fold.
and in doing SO showed the republican
cause to be anything but hopeless. 1t
is possible for that cause to win. The
Maine victory of this year If properly
applied may be made to serve the
same purpose that the Maine defeat
did in 1880.
In 1880, it is true, there was no
third national ticket composed OF dis
gruntled republicans. Before the
Mamie election the Grant men and the
Sherman men were sulking, but not
organized for opposition. 1t was only
necessary to appeal to them strongly
on the score Of party pride and public
necessity. This was done, and they
responded. ..1. .a@a'
Now, however, there is a third par.
ty, and aggressively led by a powerful
agitator., Still, the prccf is SO con.
elusive that the movement has for its
object the disruption of the republican
party and that only-that Theodore
Roosevelt is, at most, but a speeder-
up for Woodrow Wilson, and that Mr..
Wilson so regards him-those pro.
gressives not absolutely daft on the
subject of Mr.. Roosevelt should be
able to find their way back home, and
go back in time to help Mr.. Taft.
Will history repeat iself? Will
Maine again sober the republicans and
bring them to the polls in November
in the old victorious form and mum.
bers? There are sixty days-a sufi1-
cient time-in which to transform the
situation, if it is transformable.

A LARGE VOTE WILL be CAST.

Things are chaping to cause an un
p%recedented poll in the f~orty.eight
states on November 5. All this IL en-.
couraging to the republicans. 1t was
apathy which hit them in the con.
gressional campaign of 1910. The ag-
gregate vote in that year was several
hundred thousand smaller than it was
in the presidential campaign of 1908.
So many republican voters remained
away from the polls that all the close
districts were lost by them. 1t was
not a democratic victory, but it was a
republican defeat. The republicans
let the election go by default. As a
consequence the democrats squeezed
into power in the House.
But there is an absolute assurance
against anything like apathy In the
presidential campaign of 1912. The
voters are aroused as they have not
been in any previous time In two or
three decades. In 1908 the aggregate
vote for president was, 14,S8S,442, as
compared with l3,52s,979 in 1904 1t
will leave the is, 900 mark far be.
hind in 1912. AS the women of Wash.
ington and California will vote this
year for the FIRST time, and as two new
states-New Mexico and Arizona
have been added to the list recently,
the poll may go beyond $1,000, 900. All
the presidential candidates except Mr..
Taft are on the stump this year. Col,
Roosevelt is now on a western tour
which promises to be more extensive
than any which was taken by any.
body in 1908; and Prof. Wilson has
made several addresses, and is book
ed to make many more before the end
Of the month. This stirring w. among
the people will kill indifference.
Those who remember the campaign
Of 1892 may recollect that the repub-
lican spe1l.binders complained Of the
meager attendance at their gather.
ings, and the lmpossibility of arousing
any enthusiasm among their hearers.
They complained of the apathy of the
community wherever they went. This
indifference registered itself at the
polls by such a falling off in the re-
publican vote that Cleveland squeezed
into Office for his second term by a
considerable majority in the electoral
college. The popular vote for Har-
risOn was 300,0 900 less in 1892 than it
was four years earlier, when he was
elected. In 1892, as at all other times
since the civil war, the republicans
were in a majority among the people,
but the stay.at.homes turned the scale
in favor of the democrats. The stay
at-home element of the voters prom.
Uses to be very small in 1912. Which
Is a pretty good indication that this
will be a fairly good year for the
republican party.
