THE FIGHTING TAFT.

President Taft appears in new role
in Massachusetts, After enduring in
silence the attacks of Roosevelt and
his managers the president has at last
spoken He not only speaks in de-
Tense but he takes the offensive and
asks his former friend to justify his
actions with the much Wanted square
DEAL The president takes up these
matters seriatim and explains and
justifies his course and tells how he
co-operated with Roosevelt and con-
suited with him. The speech is a
We publish it in fall

to be we'll informed to take the time
to read it. 1t is interesting from start
to finish and gives in full the attitude
of the administration on all the ques-
tons of the day. Read the fighting

national banking house, himself a cit.
|izen of Great Britain. 1t was the
year of the Lloyd-George budget, the
famous budget said to be socialistic in
Its tendencies, which eventually upset
1.-THE House of Lords. Sir Edgar made
a little talk to the company and to
1.-THE surprise of some members OF the
party it was developed that he ap-
proved of the budget. And what rea.
son do you think he gave? He said.
|'England must increase the efficiency
of her people. That is the keynote
of a new civilization!
"All over this country the railroads
are running seed corn and dairy spec
lials to stimulate an interest in scien-
titic farming along their lines. The
enterprsing management of the New
York Central has esta blished expert
mental farms, and it's president has
taken an active part in every effort
to encourage a new interest in agri-
culture in this state. Why? Not be-
cause the railroads are responsible
or in any sense to blame for the SLOW
emily methods of agriculture in the
past, but simply because they are in
terested in the prosperity and pur-
chasing power of the people along
their lines.
And so you and l are not respons-
1ible in the sense Of having caused
them for many of the waste places in
society, for the poverty or the improv-
idence or vice or inherited weakness
that lower the efficiency of so many
of the population; or for the fact that
that they bring children into the world
that they are not able to care for. We
are not responsible in that sense for
the Embellishments of the industrial
system, for the fluctuations in the de
mand and the changes in methods that
throw mel out of employment; or for
the fact that some men are not so
adaptable and resourceful as others
or for The accidents and calamities
OF industrial life-we are not respons-
ible, say, for these conditions in the
sense of having caused them-but that
is not the point. We are not re-
sponsibie in that sense for the swamps
we are preparing to drain or the des
erts we are preparing to irrigate, in
order to increase the productiveness
of the country. Sir Edgar Speyer
touched the point when he said, Eng
land must increase the efficiency of
ner people,. We must develop the
capabilities OF our people, not only as
a means to an end but as the very end
itself to which commerce and indus
try and institutions and governments
are all at last directed"

Reetz-Powers

At O'Clock on Tuesday morning
at the St. Rose of Lima church, Rev
Father Farrelly officiating, occurred
the marriage of Mr.. John Reetz and
Miss Alice Powers. The ceremony
was performed in the presence of a
large gathering of the relatives and
friends of the contracting parties. The
bride wore a beautiful gown of tan
while the groom wore the conventions
al black.
After the ceremony the guests re-
paired to the home of the bride, where
an elaborate wedding breakfast was
served. Guests from out of town were:
William Powers, of Omaha, and Miss
Mary Powers, of Luzerne, Iowa.
Both the bride and groom are we'll
and favorably known in this vicinity,
and have host of friends who wish
them long and prosperous journey
through life.
The young couple left Tuesday af-
ternoon for a short honeymoon trip
west, after which they will be at home
to their friends on Railroad avenue.

The split in the republican party he
claimed would give the democrats a
chance to put in force the theories Of
his party. Mr.. O'Connor is a brand
Of democrat that is always seeing vic
tory until overwhelmed with defeat
and we predict that this year will be
no exception.
We have no account of the report
of the committee on credentials, but
lit is safe to say that such report
was made and was broad enough to
include everybody except kiron and
Willow townships. The committee on
resolutions made it's report in which
as usual the republican party was de-
nounced in generous terms and the
familiar expressions of fraud, incom.
potency and special interests were ap.
piled to the party. A reasonable
amount of taffy was given the demo
cratic party for passing bills looking
to the reduction of the tariff. This

ment of the candidacy of G. L. Cas-
we'll for state treasurer. The endorse
ment was given with proper unanimity
and certificate of character which
should be the envy of every democrat
in the county. Mr.. Caswell is not
candidate because he believes there
is an opportunity for his election, but
because he recognizes that if the dem

ton that he will be in position to
help distribute the loaves and fishes,
and he is to be congratulated for his
far sightedness in attempting to put
himself in position where he will

When A Maids Wilful

A Wedding Needed
Perhaps a good wholesome wedding

You cannot afford to receive marked

ter is such that you viii spend the rest
