M'HARG is ON THE JOB
His work for Roosevelt will not get
much support in this state.

His work for Roosevelt will not get
much support in this state.
The news that Ormsby McHarg is
one of the Roosevelt managers and is
going through the country organizing
a following for the Oyster Bay candi-
date will not be received with entire
appreciation by people of Oregon.
They will remember that it was this
same Ormsby McHarg who came to
Oregon just a few short years ago and
did everything in his power to induce
members Of the State Legislature to
violate their most solemn pledges to
he people by refusing to support state
ment No. l.
At that time Ormsby McHarg was
evidently not so much of a progressive
as he has become in this campaign.
The people of oregon had declared for
George Z. Chamberlain for United
States senator. But Ormsby McHarg
did not then want the people to rule.
One of the most disgraceful scenes
ever Witnessed at the oregon capital
was this McHarg person bringing ev-
cry possible influence to bear to get
weak-kneed legislators to disregard
the peoples instructions. violate their
statement No. l pledge and cast their
ballot for a Republican senator.
1t is an open and notorious fact, a.
well known - anything else during
that session.

body's. He himself was a willing
worker with Senator Aldrich, to pre-.
vent adequate tariff revision and he
was as a matter of fact among the
most steadfast stand-patters in the
Senate.
Mr. Dixon's manifesto also seems
to be ill-considered when he says that
Mr.. Taft must rely for his support in
the Chicago convention upon delegates
from the south and those possibly Of
the east and north when direct pri-
maries do not prevail, but where the
party machine is dominant Just what
states Mr. Dixon believes are conven-
tion ridden, would be hard to say.
Delegates will be chosen by direct
vote in Maine, Massachusetts, New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Possibly also in Maryland and New
Hampshire. The only northern states
east of the Missouri river clinging to
the convention system are Rhode Is
land, Connecticut, Vermont, Delaware,
West Virginia, Michigan, Iowa and
Missouri, and of these last, four are
claimed as friendly by the ant-Taft
campaigners.

PUT
HIM IN BAD
Roosevelt Campaign Shows 1t
Has Been Put Into Poor
Hands.

Theodore Roosevelt has already
been put on the defensive in his third
term candidacy, more than anything
else, through the inaptitude of his
friends. Facing the unusual situation
of third term candidacy, they have
not risen equal to the situation.
Senator Dixon, Roosevelts manager
made a bad mistake in recent ad-
dress and Roosevelt must have regret
ted later that he did not look over his
remarks before they were published,
Mr.. Dixon said that for more than so
years, the Republican party has con-
trolled the policies Of the nation and
then referred to the loss OF the House
by the Republicans in 1910 as the first
break in party rule.
But most everyone knows that IL the
loss of the lower House of Congress
constitutes such break in party rule.
the Republican party has been in con-
troll in Washington only 80 years out
Of the last so, and since 1877, only 22
years out of the last 40. In that time,
there have been two Democratic ad-
ministrations and many Republican
senates. In fact, the Republican party
is as much in command today as it
has been during large part of the
time since the beginning Of Grants
second administration.
Mr.. Dixon laments the loss Of the
House in 1910 as an unprecedented
disaster Yet, In four Of the last seven
preceding Republican administrations,
the House was lost In the mid-term
year, in 1874, 1873, 1882 and 1890.
Mr. Dixon of course tries to throw
the blame of this condition on Presi-
dent Taft, but the truth Is that it was
as much the Senator's fault as any

CHARGE AGAINST
TAFT UNFOUNDED
Administration Does Not Use
OffiCe-HOIders to Get
Delegates.

The initial statement OF Senator Dix
on. in regard to the sins of the admin
istration in lining up office-holders to
get Taft delegates to the national con-
yention, is as idle as it is i'll founded.
AS long ago as last December, Presi-
dent Taft directed that office holders
in the southern states were not to be
chosen as delegates to Chicago In his
behalf, and every well posted politi-
clan knows that in the distribution OF
patronage in the southern states, this
administration has turned a deaf ear
to all pre-convention suggestions.
People who recall the pleasure and
avidity with which President Roose-
yelt coralled the southern delegates
for Mr. Taft four years ago, the en-
phasis with which he instructed Frank
H. Hitchcock to "Cinch 'em" and the
glee with which he received the news
that Hitchcock had carried out his In
structions, regard the statement OF
Senator Dixon as a blunder.
Indeed 1t Is not necessary to go
back four years to witness the zeal
with which Mr.. Roosevelt and his as
sociates have gone after these same
delegates. Only a few weeks ago,
Ormsby McHarg was going through
tha south nromiEinR large sums to
those who would procure Roosevelt
delegations.
Moreover, nothing will be attempted
in this campaign by the administration
half so raw as Mr.. Roosevelt himself
worked to secure his own reelection

President UphoIds Militia.

President Taft regards as unpatri
otic the disposition in some quarters
to discourage enlistment in state mil.
itias. In a recent speech he character
lied this branch Of the national de-
Tense as a prime necessity. He said:
There is, in some quarters, a dis
position to discourage enlistment in
the National guard. This is unpatri-
otic and ought to be frowned upon.
Every man who enlists should be made
to feel that be Is preparing his country

HEED THE WARNING
Many Heppner People Have
Done So.

When the kidneys are sick they give
unmistakable warnings that shoulc
not be ignored. BY examining the
kidneys on the first sign of disorder
many days of suffering may be saved.
Sick kidneys expell dark, ill-smell-
ing urine, full O" brickdust sediment
and painful id passage. Sluggish
kidneys cause dull pain in the small
of the back, headaches dizzy spells
tired, languid feelings and frequent
rheumatic twinges.

JUST A CANARD.

So far as the Enquirer has informa.
tion there has been no confirmation OF
that story sent out Of Rock Hill to the
Charlotte Chronicle, alleging disre.
spectful treatment Of Governor Blease
by Winthrop graduates on the occasion
of the presentation Of the diplomas.
A Yorkville man who was In Rock
HILL Saturday told The Enquirer that
the Rock Hill people generally seemed
more or less indignant that such 8
story should be sent out. more espe-
cially when there was no foundation
for 1t other than in the imagination OF
the correspondent.
The fact Is, said the Enquirer's in
formant, Governor Blease's conduct al
Rock Hill was so faultlessly dignified
and proper that 1t occasioned favorable
comment even from people who might
naturally be expected to be most criti-
cal. He took occasion to say at the be-
ginning Of his very few remarks that
he was there solely in an official ca
pacity rather than for the purpose OF
making q speech; but at the same time
he wanted 1t understood that he had
always been friendly to Winthrop, to
prove which he cited his legislative
record and especially the fact that the
Winthrop appropriations were un-
touched in the long list of items he
sought to cut out Of the last appropri-
alton bill
In view of the governors conduct
and what he said, 1t was particularly
regrettable that such a story should
have been sent out to the world, and
the Rock Hill people did not relish the
incident at all.

RAILROAD RUMORS.

The recent change Of schedule on the
Southern railroad as the result o1
which the northbound train from Co.
lumbia to Marion Is held up In Rock
Hill from eleven o'clock a. m, to five p
m., is proving very satisfactory to the
business interests Of Rock Hill; but II
Is causing complaint from a portion OF
the travelling public.
In the case of people from the east
of Rock Hill who desire to go to tnat
town on business and return home the
same day, the arrangement Is very con-
venient indeed; but where a passenger
starts from some point east Of Rock
Hill for some point west of that town
he esteems 1t quite hardship to be helt
up all day without any business to at
tend to. The matter will probably be
laid before the railroad commission.
There are rumors of a further extern
sion of the service of trains Nos. III
and 11S, now being operated between
Yorkville and Columbia so as to make
Blacksburg the northern terminus; but
so far as the Enquirer has information
nothing official has been given out ir
this connection.

ohs AND vETcH.

Mr. ]. M. Williford called at The En-
quirer Office yesterday afternoon to
take the editor out to see q field Of
oats and vetch belonging to Mr.. w. j.
Fewell, about a mile and half east of
Yorkville, and although the editor was
unable to go, from what Mr.. Williford
said there is no question that the sight
was worth while.
There are three acres in the field"
said Mr.. Williford. "The oats struck me
here" indicating a height Of about
three and half feet, "and they are as
thick as they can stand about all over
the place, with the vetch filling in the
spaces between. I do not think I have
ever seen anything like It."
Asked as to how many bundles there
would probably be to the acre, Mr..
Williford explained that because of
the vetch, it was impracticable to tie
the oats in bundles; that they would
In saying that when cured the yield of
the mixture ought to be something like
five tons to the acre.
But this Is just q guess" explained
Mr.. Willifsrd. "One year 1 made ten
tons of sorghum cane to the acre, and
estimating the probable difference In
height and weight as we'll as I cen,
would say that the yield Of cured oats
and vetch ought to be at least five tons
to the acre.
In Mr.. Williford's opinion, the oats
and vetch when cured ought to be
worth at least as much per ton as Tim
othy hay, and as Timothy hay Is worth
in the neighborhood Of $33 a ton, the
value of this crop of Mr.. Fewells is
close to $3.50 per acre.

Situation in Cuba.-The presence ol
of American warships in Havana har-
Dor this afternoon may be regarded as
greatly diminishing the likelihood OF
Intervention in Cuba, according to the
construction placed upon that fact by
the administration. It Is felt that the
mere presence Of the two warships will
restrain the restless and excitable ele.
ment Of Havana.
Secretary Knox, who all along has
lost no opportunity Of declaring
against any purpose to intervene polit-
ically in Cuba unless absolutely driven
to do so by the failure Of the Cuban
government to uphold the law and
protect life and property, felt called
upon today to renew that assurance d.
rectly to the Cuban people through
Orestes Ferrera, speaker Of the Cuban
house Of representatives. And he also
let II be known to the American peo-
pie, not only that the United States
does not contemplate intervention. but
that he believed the Cuban govern
ment would be able itself to suppress
the insurrection. Senior Ferrera Is be-
lieved to have derived great comfort
from his talk with the secretary OF
state.
The heavy torrential rains in Ha-
vana are now believed to have been an
important factor in preventing the out
break Of race riots there. When the
rains stop it is believed here the op-
posing elements will make no further
effort to create race riots. because of
the presence Of the cruiser Washington
and the battleship Rhode Island, in
Havana harbor. The gunboat Nash
vile reported today that Sagua was
being attacked by rebels, but the fruit
company manager felt confident Of his
ability to defend the property unless
attacked by overwhelming numbers.
The present troubles are rapidly be-
ing transferred to the northern coast
Of Oriente province and the Nashville
has returned to Nipe bay.-Washing-
ton dispatch, Monday.
