showed conclusively that the prohi-
bition sentiment throughout the
state, which has always been a great
asset of the Republicans, has mater
tally weakened. The liquor question
has been largely eliminated as an
issue in the present campaign, al
though the Democrats promise if re-
turned to power to give the voters
an opportunity to pass upon a con-
stltutional amendment which will
give local option to the cities and
large towns.
The Republicans have endeavored
to keep local issues to the fore in the
campaign, while the Democrats have
paid most attention to the tariff and
other national questions Governor
Marshall of Indiana, Speaker Champ
clark and a host of other noted Dem
ocratlc leaders who have stumped the
state the past ten days have so confin-
ed their remarks solely to national
issues.
Opinion differs as to the effect that
the advent of the Progressive party
will have on the result of the elec-
ton. The Progressives have not put
state ticket in the field and this has
led the old party to believe that the
Prog1tssives as whole will support
the regular Republican nominees.
The Republican candidate for gov
ernor is William T. Haines of Wa
terville, former attorney general of
Maine. He is opposed by Governor
Frederick w. Plaisted, Democrat.
The contest for United States senator
is between Edwin G. Burleigh, who
was a representative in congress for
many years, and the present Demo-
cratic senator, Obadiah Gardner,
who was named last spring to succeed

gresham Daniel J. McGilliouddy, the
Democratic incumbent. In the Third

ZACHARY TAYLOR
BY GEORGE FITCH.
Author OF cat Good Old siwaah."

Zachary Taylor, the twelfth President
Of the United States. was a man who II
given 5000 men and q pocket map OF
Mexico to-day would make the country SO
healthy for American settlers in three
months that the State Department could
dispense with the extra stenographers
now busy in expressing regrets to the
Mexican government over the murder Of
Yankees by insurrectos.
Taylor was born September "a. 1855. in
Virginia. His father was a Revolution
airy colonel. and in 1905 young Taylor be-
came a lietenant in the United States
army. not because he stood well in
French and kept his washbowl clean at
West Point. but because he seemed to
be a man who would lieutenant with eX-
tremely fatal results to the enemy. In
Hl2 he became a major. and justified his
appointment by protecting Indiana from
the Indians. He then helped put down
the Blackhawk war, and later on broke
up an Indian war in Florida, producing
an unprecedented number OF obituaries
at low cost
one Of the best two-handed fighters IN
the country, no weights barred. and when
Mexico became feverish and hostile in
1876, he was given a small army and told
to take a stroll through the country.
This he did with such resolution and per-
severance that several Mexican armies
who opposed him were pulverized. He
became tire terror Of Mexico, and his
success was SO great that the board of
strategy at Washington did not even
court-martial him for going into the bat
tie of Bunea Vista without shaving.

Handicrnfts for Girls.
m the Baltimore American.

From the Baltimore American
The New York city public school sys-
tenn now includes one school devoted en-
tirely to instructing girls in such prac-
teal handicrafts as demand skilled en-
ployment and which pay fair wages Tor
skilled work. Most of the girls in the
school. according to q recently published
statement. learn dressmaking and milli-
merry. In these trades the pay is said to
range from IS to SIS per week. and the
graduates OF the school have little diff
Guilty in obtaining positions where ad-
vancement is dependent upon capabili-
ties.
The reason for the establishment OF
that there was a strong demand for 1t.
It was organized as a private under
taking, but proved SO successful that the
school board decided to take it over
and make 1t a part Of the municipal
educational system. Those applying for
admission must be fourteen years of age
and must have completed the fifth grade
in the grammer school course in one
year.
In our modern industrialism girls as
well as young men are drawn into the
great maelstrom and they command bet
tire wages at the start and obtain adj
vancement more rapidly when they have
been trained in the arts or handicrafts
in which they are employed. The trade
school is rather an innovation In this
country. but 1t has arrived. The supply
of trade schools is as yet scarcely up to
the demand, however.

Still Three Candidates.

This is what we read in the New
York Press:
If there were a choice between three
candidates for President it might pos
slbly puzzle some voters how to de-
eide. But William Howard Taft is
as dead as a door nail. So this is the
choice-pot between three, but between
two candidates; Prof. Wilson or ex-
President Roosevelt.
Only a short week since this paper
has changed ownership. and this is the
result. To say that Mr.. Taft is "as
dead as door nail" is a political CAM
paign trick. and as the dictum comes
from the Roosevelt camp. more apt to
do Mr.. Taft good than harm him.
Besides, it is not true. The Democratic
candidate may defeat him, but he will
be able to count noses with Mr.. Roose-
welt anyway, unless all reliable signs
fail

To Flood the Sahara.

+ II was great gain for the world
when passage from the Red Sea to the
Mediterranean was made possible by
the construction of the Suez Canal. A
greater gain will be made by the Pam
anna waterway. Such canals make areas
in hitherto undeveloped state profit
able. But the French have under con-
sideration a scheme of development be-
side which the greatest reclamation
project ever attempted seems puerile. 1t
is to turn the sea into the depressed
places of the Sahara Desert. These
plans are not the dreams of visionary,
but are the work of scientists who have
never entirely cast aside the old irri-
CATION project first Endorsed by De
Lesseps.
The Scientific American tells details
of this proposal, by which it is hoped
to let in the waters of the Mediter-
ranean to food the valleys of the Al
gerian desert, thereby making it an in
land sea. Some of the advantages would
be to make fertile all that vast region
in the vicinity of the newly created
sea; to create new colony for France,
to develop trade between Algeria and
French West Africa, and, more as
founding than all, to change the climate
of Northern Africa from torrid to tenn
perate. 1t is said that this could be &C
complished by digging a canal for a
distance of fifty miles through the sand
and soft stone. In comparison with the
work necessary to construct the Pam
anna Canal this would 'rbe easy"
The geographers of the world who
are now touring this country have
found many things at which to marvel.
Geographically, the American CONT
nent is one of the most interesting, and
when transformed by the engineers it
becomes doubly fascinating to the map
makers. Niagara Falls, the great
Western irrigation projects and the
Panama Canal are objects on which
the attention of the visitors is conferred.
One does not have to go back many
years to remember the stories of the
desert lands that lay to the west of
the Missouri. One by one, by means
of conserved waters, these parched
places and arid stretches are being made
fertile.
