WASHINGTON THINKS ISSUE IS
BETWEEN TAFT AND ROOSEVELT

WASHINGTON, February 6.-Some
of the wrinkles are being ironed out
of the Republican presidential situa-
ton, The rapid "oozing out" of the
La Toilette candidacy, as one of the
insurgent members of Congress ex-
pressed it today, is destined to make
the contest for the nomination clearly
defined between President Taft and
Colonel Roosevelt.
Senator CummiT3 does not appear
to be cutting much of a figure in the
calculations based on the late develop
ments in the anti-Taft ranks, his can
didacy being regarded as a purely
local issue in Iowa up to this time.
At La Toilette headquarters the
bravest possible front is being main
tanned by the managers of the Wis
conysin senator's campaign in the face
of constantly increasing evidence that
the financial and other powerful sup
porters of the movement are getting
ready to transfer their efforts to
Roosevelt
Many of the progressives are well
coming the change of conditions that
will concentrate their strength and
place It behind a single movement.
The Taft managers, however, are not
permitting the opposition to rest on
all the claims that are being made,
They expect some, If not many, of the
men who have been strong for La
Toilette to give their support to the
President on the ground that they are
more anti-Roosevelt in their feeling
than they have been anti-Taft.
The South has begun to speak on
the delegate proposition and the Taft
managers already are reckoning OF
the prestige to be gained by the lining
up of the state and district conven
tions in that territory for the Presi
dent. A part of the administration
program has been to have the South
ern organizations act early so as t
exert an influence in other sections
The most important development to
day was the expression of the convic
ton in certain high administrator
circles that Colonel Roosevelt, whil
not wanting the nomination himself
is bent on killing Taft politically
he can.

SAYS THAT CATTLE DRINK
NO WATER IN THESE ISLANDS

Kansas City, MOI have horses
on my ranch that do not know what
water is, and will not drink it if it is
brought before them. They have
never tasted water | have good fat
cattle that have never seen water and
would not know how to act if water
touched them. l have other cattle
that have imported from the United
States which have not tasted a drop
of water since being turned out on
my cactus and blue grass pastures.
They have lived for years without
water and are as fat as any CRASHED
cattle in the United States. They
make just as good beef as you can
get in any restaurant"
These statements were made in
sober earnest by Robert Hind, mil
lionaire sugar planter and ranch man
of Honolulu
When water holes go dry on our
own western ranges cattlemen hurry
their stock out Of the country The
price of beef on the hoof goes down
and the price of meat goes up. Dry
years mean panic among the owners
Of cattle and the owner of pure-breds
in the United States wouldn't think
of buying a $1,000 bull and putting
him on a ranch that had neither
stream, spring nor well on It. He
would die of thirst in less than a
week.
Mr.. Hind has bought six valuable
bulls He will buy several more be
fore he returns to his island Fancn
And when he does take the animals
back he will turn them loose in &
pasture of cactus and blue gras,
growing upon volcanic soil in which
there is absolutely no water for drink
ing purposes. And the animals will
thrive as others OF their kind thriyet
