TAFT REPUBLICAN SAYS
He IS FOR ROOSEVELT

Riverside Press: Il am a Taft Re
publican, but shall vote for Theodore
Roosevelt on November 5, and l very
much regret the action of the so o-called
Taft Republican committee in advising
Republicans to vote for Wilson"
This is the statement made to the
Press representative today by H. X
Small, one of the leading business men
of Riverside, who also has large in
terests in the Imperial valley. Con-
tinuing, Mr.. Small said:
Il do not think the Taft committee
has any business telling us how We
should vote; the committee was created
to make a Taft campaign in this cam
paign, il is up to the individual voter
who supported Taft to decide how he
ought to vote. AS for myself, l am not
going to vote against the prosperity Of
my own community and against nv
own business interests by supporting
Wilson or any other Democratic candi-
date
Il regret we have no Taft electors
on the ballot and feel just resentment
that this is the situation; but it is 10
use to wrangle about the matter any
longer. That is past, it is dead issue
now; the practical question for us 20
settle is shall we vote for Roosevelt
or Wilson, and it has not taken me
long to decide to stamp my ballot for
Roosevelt I should have preferred
Taft to Roosevelt, but Roosevelt is all
right on the tariff and other issues in
which we are especially interest ed
here and we ought to vote for him
1T looks to me as if this election
was liable to be close, and it may turn
out that California's Is votes will set
tie it; I should certainly never forgive
myself if I helped put the state in the
column for Wilson, a Democrat and a
free trader, whose policies are opposed
to the prosperity Of California.
There is possibility, moreover
that this election will be thrown into
congress, and a deadlock in the pres
ent house may throw the matter over
into the next congress. We ought TO
be very careful whom we elect I do
not want any kettner in mine when VIC
have chance to vote for S. c. Evans
citizen of Riverside, a strong pro
tectionist, and a man who is strictly
all right for the job in every way. If
there is a fight made on the citrus tar
iff in the next congress, we need Sam
| Evans right there on the job and 1 ex
pect we shall put him there"
Mr. Small talks mighty good sense
and he is held in such high esteem in
Riverside, Orange and Imperial coun-
ties that his clear headed. practical
statement of the situation will be
bound to carry much weight.
There are a good many other Taft
, Republicans who are taking the same
stand he is; they do not propose to be
| delivered to Wilson under any circum
stances.

WAR is UNAVOIDABLE

Los ANGELES, Oct 26-Maj.-Gen
Leonard Wood, chief of staff of the
United States army, in a remarkable
address at the luncheon given in his
honor by the directors of the Cham
