TEDDY SCORES
TAFT REGARDING
HARVESTER TRUST

HAVERHILL, Mass, April %
Theodore Roosevelt today said "of
course Mr.. Taft was away, as every
one knows, while | was discussing
the matter OF the Harvester trust
with the officials and other depart
ments-commerce and labor and
justice but after he came back the
matter was repeatedly brought up
before the cabinet and discussed at
length. Secretary Bonaparte says
in letter that Taft took the initi-
alive in approving my course. My
memory on this subject is to the
same effect. Mr. Taft could not
fail to have had its full information
Mr. Taft has been president three
years and two months, and it is
nonsense to say that during that
time he has not had a full oppor-
tunity to act into the harvester
trust, If he so desired. "

Great credit is due Prof. A. II.
Yoder Of the Tonopah high school.
in the manner he has handled the
new musicians of the recently or
ganized Tonopah school band. At
the present time 10 youngsters are
able to discourse popular airs, but
within a short time thirteen more
will be added. Considering the
short time tn band has been or
ganized-six weeks-it is marvellous
the way they handle the brass in
struments. During the benefit en-
tertainment given for the band at
the Butler theater last Thursday
evening the players showed their
talent as coming artists. Three
solos we're rendered by Clifford
Brissell, Grayson Schmidt and Fred
Swim. that caused the audience
to applaud loudly
At the track meet between the
Tonopah and Goldfield high schools,
held Saturday afternoon. the band

A RECORD BUSINESS
Done by Local Post Office
Last Month.

The passing OF the holiday week and
the close Of December, 1911, the big
gest month in the history Of the office,
does not finish the rush of business at
the Richmond post office. Belated
New Years greetings, mostly fancy
post cards, are still pouring into the
office so that the postal employees are
fully as busy as last week. The last
Christmas packages. even down to the
mixes" have been taken care OF, and
as the carriers will be able to clear
up the New Years rush within day
or so, the office Is starting 1912 with
a spotless record.
The past Christmas rush, according
to post office records, exceeds all form
er marks since the establishment of
the office in this city. Receipts for
the month of December aggregated
nearly $4,000, mark considered
quite remarkable for a city of this
size First class mail forwarded,
which does not include the enormous
quantity of catalogues, packages and
pieces and it is thought fully as many
were received.
When asked If the holiday rush was
past L. A. Handley. superintendent OF
carriers, pointing to q stack OF ten
large mail sacks, said, See that stuff:
That's coming in regularly on every
train"
