q few minutes at a bridge over a

move several large boulders tumbl-
ed from the bluff onto the tracks

Il is calculated that had the train
not been delayed at the bridge, the

find their hiding place Lately
they saw wolf signs and tracked the
wolves to their den, a small cave

boys cot some fish hooks and
fastened them to the extremities Of
some long poles. They thrust these
far into the cave several times and
caught three young wolves, but
have failed to capture the older

In the twiliehts golden glow,
Singing softly singing low,
Swinging gently to and lro'
With her babe upon her knee,
Mother looks beyond today
Far beyond the childish play,
Wond'ring in mothers way,
What the future is to be.
Days of JOY or days of stress;
Days of woe or days to bless;
Tired feet, or feet that press
On and upward to the goal
AS she sits and softly sings,
Borne aloft on angels wings
Are the mothers offerings
For the babes unfolding soul
Little babe, who sweetly sleeps
AS the twilight slowly creeps
Over all the silenced deeps,
What future yours would be
# that mothers prayers for you
We're but answered; If she knew
All her dreams would yet come true

A CLEAR CASE OF LARCENY

dave him the nomination in a con-
vention which, when organized by
the committee, was ready for any
act of piracy that would result in
the denomination Of Taft. Taking
votes which he had won before the
people away from Roosevelt and
giving them to Taft, who won moth
ine before the people, was an easy
task for this convention. Probably
it will be much harder to get the
rank and file of.the republican par
ty to ratify such deeds of political
outlawry at the polls next Novem"
Der.
"
There is another fact which fails
to commend the candidacy Of Taft.
He had the entire vote of the
South in the national convention.
Without the strength of the South
he certainly could not have hoped
to make a fight in the convention.
Thus we have the interesting spec
tacle of the South nominating a
candidate for president, when the
South will not giye its nominee a
single electoral vote in the cleo
ton. Not a primary was held in
the South, and Taft was given the
vote of this section by means Of
machinery in the hands of party
bosses. In the primaries Roosevelt
carried those states which must
elect a republican president if a
republican president is elected at
all, yet here comes the South,
which is certain to give its vote to
the democratic candidate, and nom
mates a candidate for whom the
South cannot vote and for whom
the republican states do not want
to vote. That's some power for
the South. We have heard of the
tail wagging the dog. There you
have it. Another thing connected
with the South's nomination Of
Taft is the fact that the South was
represented in the Chicago conven-
ton by many negroes This fact
will not commend the candidacy of
Taft to those white republicans who
realize that the negro is the heav-
lest load the republican party Of
the South has to carry. Growth
is impossible in the South for any
political party that will forever be
hugging the negro to its bosom,

The Record is not at all inter-
ested in the election of Roosevelt
to the presidency, but this paper
does believe in a square deal, We
would stake our reputation as a
prophet on the prediction that If
Roosevelt makes the race for pres
ident on an independent and prog
ressive platform he will defeat
President Taft in all sections Of the
country A good many leaders Of
both old parties have not kept pace
with the sentiment of the plain,
everyday folks who do the voting,

tiOn Is over, dilu
|Taft is again the nominee OF hls
Marty for the highest Office in the
&iapd, 1t would be more proper tc
Cav that Taft is merely the noml-
noe Of a majority of the delegates
composing the national convention
at Chicago last week, for there is
Eabso]utely no evidence at hand on
(which TO base a conclusion that ne
&;s the choice of his party. All the
&evidence points to the fact that an
&o, erwhelming majority OF the re-
&nubIican voters in this country 40
Anot want Taft to head the. ticket
ME- is the nominee of the bosses
and the corrupt manipulatorS OF
marty machinery. Perhaps never
6before in the history Of American
NnoIitics has any candidate Of any
Rparty been so thoroughly repudlated
n Inv fine voters of his own party ana
fvet been able, or willing, to folst
&himseIf upon the people as the
n haod Of tha ticket, Taft has al
ready been repudiated by the re-
Publican party. When the noml-
nation was given to him one OF the
Greatest pieces of political larceny
the country has ever witnessed was
completed, We should not think
that the honest republican voter is
under any obligation whatever to
support Mr.. Taft, because he is not
the honest nominee of the honest
republican party.
Mr.. Taft was not able to carry a
single state in the preference pri-
maries held before the national
convention. The record is that in
those states in which primaries
were held Mr.. Roosevelt received
more than two to one of the popu-
lar vote and more than six to one
OF the delegate vote, Mr.. TAFT
could secure the delegate votes OF
those states only in which conven-
tions were held. In states like Ar
kansas, where Powell Clayton and
II. l.. Remmel rule a state conven-
iion like despots, Taft was always
the winner. 1t is to the everlasting
disgrace of the republican national
convention that the will Of the peo-
pie as expressed in the primaries
should be disregarded in enough in
stances to insure the nomination
for Taft. Yet that is the thing that
happened, Roosevelt defeated Taft
in Ohio, the home state of the pres
ident, by more than 10000 votes
in the primaries, yet in the nation
al convention Taft was given the
delegates at large from that state.
Similar jobs Of political thievery
were perpetrated in Taft's interest
in the delegate vote from the states
Of California, Washington and other
states, Of the contested delegates
in the national convention Taft was
awarded considerably more than
two hundred, while Roosevelt was
given less than twenty

Taft Is really the nominee Of the
republican national committee,
composed of about forty-seven men.
Some of these are the most motor
iously dlsreputable characters in
the party The difference in the
character Of the men supporting
Roosevelt and Taft at Chicago
was striking. There was not a
single progressive republican of
good character before the country
like Gov, lladley of Missouri, Sem
ator BorOh of Idaho, Gov johnson
of California, Gov, Gl0sscock of
West Virginia or Gov Stubs Of
Kansas fighting for Taft, The Taft
leaders consisted Of characters like

and Others Of the sland-pat wing
