Service to Sea Shore.
ASK LATE COLLECTIONS

Late mail facilities and improved
railroad service to the sea shore
resorts were taken up and acted up
on by the Board of Directors of the
Board of Trade at a special meeting
yesterday. The board is desirous
of having an outgoing mail and
collections made in certain parts as
near midnight as possible. The last
mail now leaves about o'clock at
night and the last collections are
made before that time. The board
also desires to have more trains run
over the Central and New York and
Long Branch railroads to seaside
resorts and other points south of
this city. Preparations were COM
pleted for removing headquarters of
the Board of Trade from the former
Scheuer building, now owned by Sig
mund Splitter, to the second floor
of the American building at the
southwest corner of Smith and State
streets.
Committee to See Postmaster.
A committee from the board Will
confer with Postmaster William II.
Pfeiffer in an effort to bring about
the mail extension desired. 1t Is the
intention to have a late outgoing
night mail as near midnight as posi-
BILE. The trade board members think
there would be huge benefits, partic-
ularly for business men and mer-
chants if q similarly late collection
was made from certain boxes, prin-
cipally in the business districts.
The directors decided to instruct
the secretary to communicate with
the passenger agents of the Central
and New York and Long Branch
railroads to ask for increased train
service for the summer.

Worcester, Mass, April Replying
to President Taft's broadsde against
| him, Theodore Roosevelt declared
the president guilty of "the grossest
and most astounding hypocrisy" in de-
claring that he had never been disIoyal
to Roosevelt, gave the lie to the presl-
dent several times, asserting at one
time that the president is guilty of a
crooked deal at another that the pres
ident's conduct In opening up the har
vester trust correspondence now "is oh.
yiously to influence the Massachusetts,
primaries and represents the very
crookedest kind of crooked deal" and
declared that the action Of the admin
istratiOn In not appealing the circuit
court order In the tobacco case to the
supreme court was incompatible with
the theory that the administration was
acting In good faith"

finite pressure to break IT, and relat-
ing that MIR. Taft wrote after he be
came president, 81 can never forget
that the power l now exercise was vol
unfairly transferred from you to me"
! the colonel shouted to his hearers, ut

Refused In 1908 For Taft.
He had been defending his lntcrpre
tatiOn of his promise not to accept n
third term, having referred to con
secutive term insisting that II he
had raised his little finger in 1908 he
could have had the nomination, but
had steadily refused It for Mr.. Taft.
Colonel Roosevelt declared that the
president In the Ballinger- er-PinchOt af-
fair, especially In connection with that
part of it III which important docu-
ments were misdated," was guilty Of
conduct (which, had he been the head
of a bank, would have gotten him into
serious trouble with the bank exam
iner, and possibly even with the dis
trlCt attorney"
Summing up his attitude Of Opposl-
tion to the president, the colonel snap
ped out these sentences:
81 do not believe he has given the
people n square deal. l believe he has
yielded to bosses and to the great priv
lleged interests. l think he has done
this through feebeness. not through
viclousness. l am sincerely sorry for
him and only regret that he did not
have the strength of character to maxi,
good his promises to the American peo-
pie.

"If he had really represented the IN
terests of the plain people Of the Unit
ed States | should have supported him
heart and soul. ! am against him only
because l have been forced TO believe
that lie does not and cannot represent
the vital needs OF the average man and
the average woman
The colonel threw aside personal
promises and relations between the
president and himself thus:
az am not botherlng about personal
promises. ] am not concerned with
personal relations"
Cheering crowds met the colonel.
There were 5000 people outside Me

his reply to the president. There were

NO MANS LAND GOES TO SANDERS

The strip of land along our
southern border, for the time being
at least, has passed into the pos
session of Sanders county. Lincoln
and Flathead counties, by their
county attorneys, laid no claim to
1t and the court ordered it attached
to Sanders county, which did lay
claim to it. This land belonged to
Flathead county, both before and
after Sanders county was created.
When Sanders county was created
out of Missoula, her lines were def
nitely fixed by the legislature.
When Lincoln county was taken
from Flathead the boundaries of
this county were also definitely
fixed by the legislature, but the
southern line did not join the San
ders county line. In other words,
the Sanders line crossed the 18th
parallel at one place and the Lin
coin line at another place, leaving
a strip of Flathead county land
which was intended should be a
part of Lincoln county, but through

plan which will give these instruct
