427h goth St., Birmingham, Ala. FROM A PROMINENT MINISTER. I desire to bear evidence to the genu- ineness of Mir Herbert Richards work. God does give us an intui- ton whereby we may guide our lives.

Coz. Wilson to AHend
Dollar Banquet Tonight

SEAGIRT, N. j., Sept. Gov. VIII
son today planned to go to New York
this afternoon, where he was SEIZED
uled to meet a group Of foreign Ian
guage newspapermen. and TO attend
the dollar dinner OF the workinCmen's
Wilson and Marshall club tonight.
Asked how long he would maintain
his sumner capital at the Little
White House." the governor said that
he would,return to his Princeton homo
about Oct. 1. He said that he pro-
posed to retain Princeton as his home
city no matter how the election turn.
ed out. Talking OF old Nassau re-
minded the governor of one OF the i'm
promptu stories with which he likes
to illustrate his philosophy OF life and
politics.
"A fond mother once brought her
boy to Princeton" he said. ''and in
sisted on turning him over to DIR. Pat
ton, my predecessor. I want you to
have personal care Of my son, she
said. All right he replied. I'll
take him in my personal care and I'll
guarantee satisfaction or return the
goods In other words, he meant the
boy would make good or be fiunked."
And that put Gov. Wilson in mind
OF the time that President Arthur left
kiD son at Princeton. The president
told the faculty that he was leaving
with them his most precious posses
sion" The governor said the phrase
leaked out among the students and
the youth forever afterwards was
known as Precious Arthur"

prisoners remained sullen In their

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept 4.-Vir-
tually complete returns today from
the primaries held yesterday show
that the Progressives swept the state.
They have carried a majority Of the
legislature districts. thus giving con-
troll of the organization to the Roose-
welt faction. In the congressional con-
tests, the Taft faction has possibly
split even, the districts being about
evenly divided between Taft and Pro-
gressive candidates.
The result OF the election makes IL
certain that the names OF the Roose-
welt electors will go on the regular
presidential ticket
Whether Taft or Roosevelt factions
will control Of the Republican organ
ization in California was in doubt ear
~ today, following the primaries held
yesterday, In complete returns indi-
cate that Taft congressional nominees
have carried the third, fourth, sixth.
seventh and eighth districts. Roose-
wilt candidates won in the second.
eth. ninth and ten districts. The first
and eleventh are In doubt.
At Progressive headquarters, II was
claimed that their candidates for the
state senate and assembly had swept
the southern part OF the state. Con-
troll OF the senate and assembly win
settle the question OF control OF the
state organization.
