after graduation from the University OF
Michigan C'h. NJ, he continued his ac-
quiring OF knowledge in the famous uni
versities of Heidelberg. Halle, Berlin.
Paris. and oxford. The erudition Of four
great countries left It's distinct imprln.
on him. and hence We perceived in him
the ,ierman philosopher. the French gen
rleman. the English conservative. and Toc
less OF the practical American.

PROF. NOORDEN EXCELLENT

To the Editor: In your issue of Sep
tember 81 there appears an article
anent an exhibit by the American Medi-
cal Association. At the exposition con-
nected with the Fifteenth International
Congress on Hygiene and Demography.
In this article the statement ap-
pears that sanatogen consists simply OF
cottage cheese mixed with little So
dunn glycerOphOsphate. We take il for
granted. Of course. that YOU published
this statement believing it TO be true.
As a matter nf fact. there is no cot

of preventing the reelection of Presi-

The War Governors at Altoona

The celebration by the people OF Al
toona OF the fiticth anniversary OF the
meeting lin person and by proxy in
that city, in the carly but critical stage
oi the civil war, OF the Governors of
seventeen OF the loyal States is an
event well worthy OF commcmQration
Affairs had a discouraging outlook for
the cause OF the Union prior to the call
ior the meeting. some OF the loyal
States being handicapped by an anti
war element which came to be dcsig-
mated as "Coppcrhcads.'
The South was in hope that these
Northern sympathizcrs would offset the
efforts of the loyal people and become
a source of material aid to the scces-
Sionis,s. The battle OF Antictam had
been fought one week before the date
0f the meeting of the Governors. and
Lee had been hurled hack. defeated by
the Army OF the Potomac under Nc
Clcllan-the last engagement in which
that general was destined to figure in
the great war, as he was relieved the
following November and Gen. Burnside
appointed as his successor.
All OF these happenings were still
veilcd in the future when the Gov
ernors came together at Altoona, only
two days after President Lincoln had
announced his intention to issue the
emancipation proclamation, if the
States in rebellion continued so by New
Years. 1868.
Those Governors had importan;
things to talk about. All the great war
Governors were on hand, the giants OF
the period, fourteen in person and three
represented by proxy. Pennsylvania
executive. Andrew G. Curtin. was the
host.
The Governors adopted an address
10 the President, pledging the support
OF their States i'll all measures neces-
sary to put down the rebellion, signi-
fed their approval OF the emancipation
proclamation, and congratulated the Ex-
ecutive and the country upon the
splendid valor of the United States
army"
The records of the newspapers of the
day, says Philadelphia exchange, show
how greatly Lincoln was encouraged by
the action and how cheered were the
people of the North against the acts OF
the anti-war men who dwelt among
them.
The Washington herald., 1912-09-27

no other reason than that Gov. De-
neen, who supported him in the pre-
liminary canvass, accepted the result OF
the Republican convention.
In Wisconsin the third termers have
organized in an effort to secure the de-
feat of Gov. McGovern, who was their
candidate for chairman of the Repub-
lican convention at Chicago. AS he
cannot rule the Republican party, Mr..
Roosevelt sets out to ruin il, If its ruin
can be accomplished. Republicans who
hesitated, won over at first by the
colonies brazen declarations and accu-
sations, are now falling into line for
Mr.. Taft The blows which Col Roose-
welt has struck at such Governors as
Messrs. 'Deneen and McGovern react
on him. His policy is being weighed
at its true worth by thousands who two
or three months ago were inclined to
give way to the rush and roar with
which his campaign opened.
The upward trend of Mr. Taft's stock
is due to the news from Kansas that
at last a straight party lineup has been
arranged; Republican electors will be
for Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Sherman, the
Roosevelt electors having resigned from
the ticket. This change in conditions
is due to- the arousing of party spirit
and a desire that the Republican party
shall live. This tendency also is re-
ported from other States, among them
Ohio, where Republicans who had
stayed away are returning.
But where the true danger to the
continuance of the Republican party
lies is in Michigan and Pennsylvania,
where electors chosen by the Repub-
lican party are known to be for Mr.
Roosevelt While gradually there the
Republican voters are awaking to the
fact that wrong is being perpetrated.
yet i'll the mapped course of things they
cannot aid President Taft by voting
for a Republican elector, knowing
that he will cast his vote for Mr.
Roosevelt II they stay away from the
polls it means half a vote for Wilson.
This is the true situation, and unless
these States follow in the footsteps Of
Kansas Mr. Taft may gain votes and
no doubt will down Mr.. Roosevelt. but
MS election remains problematical.
