RATHER RIDE WITH
WILSON THAN 7. R.
Taft thinks of inaugural Pa
rade and Gathers Some
SOlace.

Cincinatti, Nov. 6. Even IN
the moments when It became ap-
parent that Governor Wilson was
going to win. President Taft did
not forget his philosophy and
good humor. Here is a story or
how the President looked at the
situation just about that time,
told by a friend Wednesday
We've got to find some COM
fort in this, the President is re-
ported to have said. TIL be

trunk from the sun; but for trees
in the street or elsewhere, ex-
posed to injury, the Slated box
is the best method of shading.
The grand success in planting
the avenues in Washington is no
doubt due largely to the persis-
tent use of this precaution, for it
is never omitted, and the results
attest its value. All trees for
two years after planting are cul-
tivated, just as they were a crop
of corn or potatoes, by the soil
being stirred by a pronged hoe
for four or five feet from the
stem in all directions.
The planting of street trees
has been largely experimental,
and has resulted thus far in
showing that the following are
the best suited, and hence are
used in the greatest numbers: 55
miles are planted with white ma
pies, 16 miles Carolina poplar, 10
miles with ash-leaved naples, G
miles with Normandy naples
in all, 81 miles. The other spe-
cies, numbering about 81 kinds,
aggregating 10000 trees fill the
remaining 33 miles of streets.
How many public spirited citi-
zens of Opelousas will do their
share this fall in making of our
town the most beautiful in the
State?
Plant trees!

VERITABLF LANDSLIDE
FOR DEMOCRATIC
NOMINEES.

New York, Nov. 6. Over
turning big Republican majori-
ties in States never before cap
tured by the Democrats in a
presidential election Wilson and
Marshall were swept into Office
by a veritable landslide, which
carried with it additional Demo
cratic governors, congressional
seats and absolute control of a
number of State legislatures
which will oust Republican sen
ators and add to the Democratic
strength in the upper house OF
Congress.
Wilson not only swept the
Solid South, but most of the
Eastern States, and even in the
Middle West and Far West, the
indications this morning were
that only a few States there
would be found outside Of the
Democratic column.
President Taft was defeated
by approximately 100, 200 in his
home State, Ohio, anu the re-
turns up to IL o'clock showed
that he had carried but three
small States, Idaho, Vermmont.
and Utah, with a total of 13
electoral votes.
Colonel Roosevelt showed great
strength In Pennsylvania and
Illinois, but in the latter State
to-day's reports showed heavy
gains for Wilson in the country
district. Roosevelt carried Wash
ington.
New Hampshire, conceded to
Taft last night, slipped into the
Wilson column this morning and
the indications were the Demo
cratic candidate would win by a
few thousand over Taft, thus
sweeping all the New England
States, except Vermont.
Vermont, Iowa, Minnesota and
Wyoming remained in the doubt
full column this morning, with
indications favoring Wilson in
each.
This afternoon Wilson appear
ed certain of 412 electoral votes
out of a total of 531. Roosevelt
had a good chance Of capturing
"a, and Taft was conceded L

street Trees OF Washington.

Quoting from an article in
Harper's 5 Magazine for July, 1883,
some weeks ago, we have seen
that Washington was already rat
ed as the most beautiful city IN
the world and that its magnlfl-
cent trees contributed very pow
erfully to make it so.
AS to the planting Of these
trees and as to the varities used
the article, goes on to say:
The trees of all the kinds used
were young, their height, accord
ing to kind, when planted, rang
ing from eight to twelve feet,
and having a diameter of about
one and a half inches. The av-
erage distance apart is twenty
FIVE feet, the height of stem al
lowed before branching, from
six to eight feet. In planting,
the greatest care is exercised;
when the soil is not naturally
good, holes are dug two feet deep
and nine feet in diameter, and
filed in with good rich loana.
The trees are lifted from the
nursery with the greatest care,
to preserve as far as possible the
roots, and in transit to prevent
them from drying or freezing.
In planting, the soil is packed
closely around the roots, and one
copious watering is given. A
tree protector is at once placed
around them, for the purpose OF
preventing them from being
shaken by the winds or gnaWed
by horses, and perhaps what is
most important Of all, to shade
the stems Of the trees until their
own foliage is sufficient to do SO.
For this last reason, the best and
cheapest tree protector yet used
is one made of wooden strips
placed three inches apart, and
bound with iron hoops; this gives
the necessary stem, and at the
same time allows free circulation
Of air. The best height for the
tree box is six feet. This shad-
ing referred to is all-important;
when trees are growing in forests
Or in the nursery, they shade one
another, and it must be evident,
II set out without any protection
from the blazing sun IN the
streets of a city, they must suf-
fer. Many thousands of deeidu-
Gus trees. both fruit and orna-
mental. perish annually the first
year of planting through this
cause. The trees in orchards
and other enclosures can beshad-
ed by wrapping the stems up to
the lower branches with straw or
anything that will shade the

SCHOOL TEACHER OF WOOD.
ROW WILSON FORETOLD
ELECTION FORTY YEARS
AGO.

Joliet, Ill, Nov. John G.
Baker, of Manhattan, was the
happiest man in VIII County
over the election of Woodrow
Wilson to the presidency, because
it fulfilled a prediction made by
his sister, Mrs. Mary Russell,
more than forty years ago.
Mrs. Russell was Mr. Wilson $
teacher when he was 10 years
old, in Tileston School, Whining
ton N. c., and at that TIME pre-
dicted that the boy some day
would be president. She did not
live to see her prophecy fulfilled.
She died three years ago, at
LeesviIle, n. G. at the age of 81.
AS token of his esteem, Viii
son presented his teacher with a
little fleetwood picture frame,
which is now in the Baker home.
Mrs. Russell watched Mr.. Wilson
grow to fame. and with each ad-
vance changed the picture in the
frame. When she gave the
frame to her brother, she re-
marked:
You will want to keep this,
for when he gets to be president
yon will be very proud of it. =
Baker said that Wilson's faith
er. Rev. Joseph Wilson, visited
him at Manhattan at the time his
son published his first book, and
said:
