rest during which he made two talks
to working men at local manufactur-

ator Burton and other state leaders,
President Taft spoke, tonight, in the
Central armory here 10 great crowd
The care taken, today, to spare his
throat and to keep him quiet showed in
the night speech, and it was a rejuve-
mated President who faced the audience
in the big armory. He was more EN-
phatic in manner and more incisive in
speaking than he had been for the last
two days. Although his voice was still
hoarse, 1t was strong.
II am here most reluctantly I am here
from sense of duty" said the Presi-
Ohio President
The crowd stamped and cheered and
applauded that statement with vgor.
The President made the same sort OF
speech as throughout his Ohio tour, but
at times he varied the arguments for
support of his Administrations Speaking
of the Payne tariff bin and the need ex-
listing for further tariff revision. Mr.
Taft raised laugh and a cheer by
remarking;
IF the Democrats will only give tho
money, III see that the schedules which
are too high win be revised"
Another remark which brought laugh
ter was made about the factions in tbs
Republican party when the President wa:
referring TO Progressive assistance IL
passing the railroad bill.

PECULIAR SITUATION.
Louisiana Republicans, by Small
Primary Vote, Lose Franchise.

Baton Rouge, La, May 16.-As an or
ganzation. the Republican party 40
longer exists in Louisiana, its franchise
was lost, today. when official returns
of the April election were read in the
joint session of the General Assembly
and the result formally promulgated.
Only 1861 votes were cast for the Re-
publican candidates, and as this Is less
than the 10 per cent required by the
state law, the organization no longer ex-
lists. The only way that the names Of
the nominees can be placed ON the ticket
in the future Is by petition, as has been
the case with Independent candidates
The forfeit of the franchise also pre-
vents the party from awaiting itself of
the state primary law.

THE LEMON CROP
California Will Have the
Largest Crop Of the
Citric Fruit in Years

California's lemon crop this year
will be one of the largest since the
culture Of that fruit was first inaug-
urated in that state. At the pres
ent time the lemon growers of Cal.
ifornia estimate minimum crop of
5000 carloads. Up to and including
the last day of February. 1,34l car.
loads had already been shipped this
year and the remainder of the crop
will be moved just as quickly as
cars can be provided. The usual
loss to the lemon crop each year on
account of frosts, was very small
this season, and some of the growers
predict as heavy season as last
year.
Since the season of 1906 6-'O7, when
3,507 carloads of California lemons
were shipped East, the output has
grown steadily until but very few
lemons now have to De imported by
this country. During the last five
years 36, ,209 carloads Of lemons have
been shipped out Of California over
the lines of the Southern Pacific.
The average annual shipment is
about 524l carloads and the minimum
estimate of this years shipment is
said to have been placed quite low,
especially as last years business
amounted to 6,764 carloads; another
reason being that the loss to the
crop this year on account Of frost
will be very light.
California can supply to every
part of the United States and it will
not be necessary for the importation
of one case of this fruit, is the way
members of the California Citrus
Fruit Growers Exchange express
themselves regarding the l91l-'l2
lt mon crop.

PLAYBOY OF THE WEST

Well! He's running. And what
are we going to do about it? / think
we shall spank him and put him to
bed.
Col. Roosevelt has his old hold up
+. on popular interest, but it is doubt
full if he has his old hold or popular
confidence. He made Taft Presi-
dent and now turns upon him. Peo-
pie don't like that trait. True, Taft
promised to carry out the Roosevelt
policies and didn't, but Roosevelt
knew, or should have known, his
Taft. The people rather sympathize
with Taft because of Roosevelt's
desertion.
Roosevelt, regarding the sub
stance and not the form of the senti-
ment against the third term, said,
in 1904, he would not be candidate
for third term. r Now he says, in
in effect, that he meant a third con-
secutive term. There's where he
disregards both substance and form
as to the wise custom which limits a
president to two terms.
Turning on Taft, he turns upon
himself. The people can only re-
gard this as ambition, and the people
do not like ambitious men for presi-
dent They have vetoed presidential
ambition every time they had a
chance. Whose has sought the
presidency too eagerly has never got
it. And Col. Roosevelt has angled

tion this year, never before.

velt's democracy is full of blow

trusts. There cannot be good
