TAFT OFF BALLOT

CARSON CITY. New July "a
President Taft may be without repre-
sentation on the official ballot of the
Republican party of Nevada at the elec-
tiOns to be held next fall. A peculiar
condition has been discovere by the
regular organization. BY an oversight,
which now seems irremediable, the
state convention, which elected dele
gates to the Chicago convention, ne
elected to nominate presidential cleo
tors, as provided for by the state law
There seems to be no way of getting
their electors on the ballot. The cleo
tors cannot be named by petition, for a
convention was held and has acted. A
conference of party leaders discussed
today the possibility of holding an
other convention, but they will do SO
with reluctance. if at all, for they fear
the Roosevelt forces on another trial
might capture the organization. Thus
far no way out of the muddle has been
discovered, and the difficulties of the
situation. are admitted to be grave. A
petition naming delegates to the Pro
gressive convention to be held in Chi.
cago next month was circulated today

NEW ALLIANCE TALKED OF

Los Angeles Express: There is a
very decided feeling gaining ground
daily in Japan that England's attitude
toward her is too patroniZing TO be
comfortable and too selfish to be high
~ remunerative. Japanese statesmen
are some of them sharing the general
public impression that England has
not treated Japan with the utmost
consideration in the matter of loans in
China and that her explanations, if
altogether sincere, are not satisfac-
tory.
Japan rightfully regards herself as
entitled to all the consideration that
such an international alliance would
command for any other first class and
enlightened power. Her business in
terests in China and her political
status on the continent have not been
fully recognized by her ally as Japan
ese pride and sense of justice demand.
AS a result. Japanese publicists and
statesmen are naturally turning their
attention to other possible alliances to
strengthen or at least prevent the
weakening of Japan's position in the
councils of the powers. They very
naturally turn to Germany and Russia
Germany has heavy interests in China
and her army and navy prospects are
together quite as formidable as any
equipment at England's command, all
things considered. Russia is already
in possession of northern Manchuria,
while Japan is her near neighbOr in

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET

NEW YORK, July 13.-The feature
OF yesterday was an attempt to cover
shorts by leading Wall street house
This firm has been putting out shorts
for several days in an Intellectual ef-
fort TO bring a reaction upon which to
replace long cotton sold out on the
rise. When the buying movement
started there was little or no cotton
for sale, and the bulls had little troub-
le in bidding the market up on the
frightened shorts. There has been
quite lot of liquidation and short
selling since last Tuesday, and as
there is no indication of rain in Texas
or dry weather east OF the river it is
probable that a still further sharp ad-
vance may be witnessed within the
next few days. Week end figures

REPUBLIC TO STAY

SAN FRANCISCO, July 13.-Captain
Robert Dollar, known TO all merchant.
men of the Pacific coast and the Ori-
ent, believes that the Chinese republic
has come to stay. Captain Dollar is
now in New York negotiating for funds
with which TO fulfill the S17,000,00
contract he recently obtained to re.
build and extend the street railway
system Of Hankow, China. Excerpts
from his diary of his last two trips to
the Orient will be published here
1T is an undisputed fact writes the
captain, that the Chinese are more
friendly to America than any other
country. Their ambition and deter
mination is to become a great com
mercial nation.
IF the foreign governments keep
their hands off, there can be no ques-
ton nor doubt that the new republic
will be permanent. All | ask is, sus-
pend judgment for at least three years.
We must urge the United States
to recognize the new republic We
should be the first to take such a
step as we are the greatest republic,
and we surely should be the first to
extend to sister republic the right
hand of fellowship in her hour of
need

THOU SHALT NOT STEAL"

Los Angeles Tribune: In signed
article published this week in the Out
look, Roosevelt again applies the pro
hibition of the commandment, Thou
shalt not steal" to the thieves who
strangled the Republican party and
looted the corpse of its last remaining
presidential nomination. With absolute
truth he declares: mo free people can
afford to submit to government by
theft If the will of the people is de-
feated by fraud, then the people do
not rule. If those who are thus foisted
on them represent the special inter-
ests instead of the people. then the in
terests and not the people rule"
That is the ineffaceable stigma that
attaches to the work of the Chicago
convention. The will of the people
was nullified and set aside. The will
of bosses was substituted by fraud and
theft for the will of the rank and file
of the Republican party. In so far as
the political banditti who did strangle
the Republican party could also
strangle popular sovereignty that fur
ther crime was committed. 1t is the
mission of the Progressive party TO
give back life to that doctrine upon
the vitality of which depends whether
this government shall be a democracy
or a plutOcracy.

at least 1000 cases of eggs a day,
which is 10000 dozen, or, figuring fur
ther, is 100000 eggs.
In one months time the total rises
to 100000 eggs. OF this 1000 cases,
200 are local ranch and 500 are fresh
eastern eggs. The retail price of eggs
today is 35c a dozen, and multiplying
this with the 10000 dozen consumed
gives $10,500 a day for eggs in Los
Angeles and vicinity.
About the first of next week no
more eggs will be shipped here from
the east, due to the exceptionally hot
weather there. This will naturally
, increase the price of local eggs, which
will not be sufficient to supply the de-
mand. At this time dealers will begin
to take the eggs they stored in March,
April and May out of storage and put
them on the market. 1t is estimated
that it will cost the wholesalers 24c
for these storage eggs, including the
cost of storage, so the opening price
to retailers will be about 26@27c a doz-
en- and to consumers 30035c dozen.

In this volume Mr.. Washington

BETTER POLITICS.

Something can be done BY
good laws. more can be done by
honest administration Of the
laws. but most Of all can be done
by frowning resolutely on the
preachers Of vague discomfort.
In our political and social life
alike. in order permanently to
succeed. we must base our con-
duct on the Decalogue and the
Golden Rule. Quack remedies of
the universal cure-all type are
generally as noxious to the body
polite as to the body corporal.
We must do our duty by the
state. We must frown down
dishonesty and corruption and
war for honesty and righteous
ness.-Theodore Roosevelt.

We regret that some Of our Demo-

rather than censure, have allowed
themselves to be drawn to the lowest
depths by contact and compact with
an element, who always have and al

MAY BE A DARK HORSE.

~ HE fight between Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
i and President Taft for the nomination for
president at the hands of the Chicago convention
from this time on will be most bitter. There is
no longer any obscurity. The field is clear.
Those who have held that in view Of the declar-
alton some years ago by Colonel Roosevelt that
he would not again accept nomination would pre-
went him from again seeking the honor are forced
TO admit that they were mistaken. Colonel Roose-
Welt is an open and avowed candidate boldly
deavoring to break the custom of no third term,
custom that has been followed since the foun-
dation OF the country In addition the thick and
thin supporters of Roosevelt must face the feel
ing of resentment entertained by the friends of
Senator LaFollette who has been tossed aside in
this combat of the larger guns. There is no room
for small artillery.
Doubtless many Of those who had supported the
Wisconsin Senator did so because they believed
that in the end what has happened would happen.
They were not sincere in their support But there
are Others few though they may be, who will stick
by the Wisconsin Senator.
In taking his stand Roosevelt must be consumed
with an -unquenchabe ambition for personal fame
-z~d glory or he must be so acting because he be-
lieves that his candidacy though il may fail is the
best means of bringing the progressive policies be-
fore the country today.
Ii IS needless 10 say lhdt lhO NON'iih~ .~'~
Colonel Roosevelt and enunciated during the Col
umbus speech are doctrines foreign to the beliefs
of the great mass Of the Republicans of the country
certainly of the Republicans OF the east

united support Of the party But his followers
reply that neither could Taft 1t is not imposs-
bic that the outcome OF the great combat which is
sure to follow will be the nomination of new man
and in connection with this the name of Justice
Hughes of the Supreme Court will come promi-
nently before the country.

TO REGULATE BUSINESS.

n HE bill introduced in the Senate providing for
i Federal control of big business by trade
commission of three members is bold plan to
solve the great industrial question of how the
huge combinations of capital are to be dealt with.
1t is designed TO supplement the Sherman act, to
stop the watering of stocks and to break up the
trusts. Cut-throat competition is to be elminat-
ed under it, but it would be difficult to draw the
line between cut-throat and fair competition We
doubt the ability Of the law makers to do so.
Under the proposed bill the commission is au-
thorized TO report to Congress and to begin civil
and criminal prosecutions. The bill also forbids
corporations with gigantic capital from engag-
ing in interstate business and it applies TO cor
porations only which have capital of more than
five millions. There arc many minor features of
the bill.
Its presentation indicates that there is TO be no
halting of the agitation for the legislative inter-
ference with business. Those who have hoped for
a rest will be disappointed Business has to put
up with the excitement Of the political campaign
and its consequent disturbances and also with
these new attempts at legislation Business IS
weary but it is to have no rest, and il will have
none until definite plan clearly outlining the re-
lations between the government and business is
adopted. And may the day come quickly.

IMPORTANT RULING AS TO BANKS.

MAYHEM the question of whether bank directors
w should really direct came before New York
court the decision held that man of large affairs
could be expected to give attention to ALL the
various companies on whose boards of directors
he might be- because it would be physically impos-
sible and because it would deprive corporations
of the benefits they receive from having dstin-
gushed names among their directors as some of
them would have to resign if they we're required
to attend TO their duties.
Comptroller Murphy announces however that
bank directors must perform the duties which they
are supposed to perform. Hereafter the law VIII
be strictly enforced making them personally liable
for losses from loans beyond the legal amount he
has instructed national bank examiners to request
boards Of directors in banks in which such losses
are discovered to pass resolutions setting forth
that the directors are personally responsible for
such losses.
The enforcement of this law will relieve the
stockholders from sharing the losses that some
times come because directors favor personal friends
with loans and it will tend to good business
methods for if the directors are held personally
liable they will attend to their duties or resign as
directors
