New York Herald Poll Is Pro.

LEADS IN STRAW VOTES
With Taft Running Third-Finds That
Roosevelt Tide Has Reached Its Height
and That Taft Movement Is Gaining
in Some Parts of Country.

New York, Sept. 30.-The Herald pub
fishes it's first instalment of its coun-
try wide review of the presidential stu
alton and its indications are that Will
son is easily leading both Taft and
Roosevelt, with Taft running third, ac-
cording to the straw ballots. More than
"a 900 test ballots were taken in various
parts of the country. The results in the
various states follow;
New York. Taft, 5s3; Roosevelt, 1901,
Wilson. l,l47. Connecticut, !Taft, So;
Roosevelt, l27: Wilson. SO, Delaware,
Taft, 266; Roosevelt 3sl; Wilson, OF.
New Jersey, Taft, 245 Roosevelt, 300;
Wilson, All. Pennsylvania, Taft. 543;
Roosevelt, 573; Wilson, 567. Maryland,
Taft, AS; Roosevelt, 1876; Wilson, 1913.
Ohio, Taft, 942; Roosevelt, SIS; Wilson,
1914 Indiana. Taft, sol; Roosevelt,
In; Wilson, 2,l00. Kentucky, Taft,
773; Roosevelt, l,452; Wilson, 2,764.
West Virginia, Taft, 1872; Roosevelt,
$40; Wilson, IT'S. Wyoming Taft, l76;
Roosevelt, us; Wilson, 204.
OF the total straw ballots taken IN
all regions the result was as follows:
Wilson, l,l64; Roosevelt, 7,l47; Taft,
Asa; Debs. 1900 The figures show
Roosevelt has drawn 1850 votes from tn
Republican party, 67s from Democrats,
20 from Debs.
The Republican loss from 1908, nc
cording to the figures, is 5,9o7. The
Democratic gain over 1908 is 2,254. The
Herald makes no prediction OF its own,
but merely presents the figures, which
speak for themselves, 1t also prints the
reports from correspondents in every
state in the union, which bear out
largely the indicated results of the
straw votes.
The Herald finds that the Roosevelt
tide has reached its height and that the
Taft movement is gaining in some parts
of the country. Wilson remains station
airy in some sections, gains in others.
and, so far as reports show, loses no
where. The Herald says that its re-
ports indicate very clearly that Wilson
is leading both other candidates.

A CRAZY QUILT PLATFORM.
President Taft Attacks the New Party
at Beverly, Mass.

Beverly, Mass, Sept. 30 President
Taft made direct plea Saturday to
Republicans to vote the Republican
ticket and not TO desert the party at
the polls in November in order to defeat
the third party and Mr.. Roosevelt. 1t
was the first prepared political address
the president has made since his speech
accepting the Chicago nomination. 1t
was delivered from temporary stand
erected on the grounds at Parramatta.
Mrs. Taft and the presidents aunt, Miss
Della Torrey stood on the veranda and
listened. The presidents auditors were
the Republican clubs of Essex county,
but hundreds OF residents of Beverly
went to hear him as well. The lawn i'll
front of the speaking stand was filed
with a packed crowd,
The president devoted particular at
tention to the third party for the first
time since its formation. He mentioned
Mr.. Roosevelt and Gov. Woodrow Will
son several times by name, but only in
connection with their views on political
or economic subjects. His reference TO
the third party and particularly his re-
marks that its platform was of crazy
quilt" character, brought immediate and
loud applause from his hearers.
Aside from his views of the new party,
the president talked almost exclusively
of the trusts, the tariff and prosperity.
He defended his policy of trust prosecu-
tions and maintained that the best proof
that it was not injurious to sound bust
ness was the prosperity that he sees
now everywhere in the country. He
pointed out that business men are now
to the Sherman law, and ad-
ded that SO long as the law is on the
statute books it must be enforced. The
president related the tariff closely with
and asserted that there could
hardly be prosperity without protection.
He attacked the Democratic platform
and paid his respects to Gov. Wilson
for his tariff views, which he declared
could hardly stand the prosperity test.

LIGHT ON COLONIES
LIkILG FOR MOOSE
Five Years Ago He Befriended Them
in Alaska, Official Records
Show.

Washington, Sept. 30.lt has fallen
upon clerk in the state department
to throw some light on the question
why did Colonel Roosevelt think of the
moose when he used that word in Chi
cago which resulted in the Progressive
party being given the nicknamef" A
few days ago this clerk was digging
through the executive orders of presi-
dents of the United States and he came
on the following:
at is hereby ordered that Fire island,
located approximately in latitude 81 de-
grees Is minutes north, longitude $50
degrees Is minutes west from Greenwich
and near the head of Cook inlet, south
of Alaska, be- and the same is, hereby
reserved and set apart for the use of the
department OF agriculture as a preserve
and breeding ground for the Alaska
moose.

their lives by doing the things man
does mot because they are certain that
as human beings with a definite task
they need-or society needs-these par
ticular services or operations from them,
but because they conceive that this
alone will prove them equal. The eff
forts of woman to prove herself equal to
man is work of supererogation. There
is nothing he has ever done that she has
not again and again proved herself able
to do equally well. But rarely is society
well served by her undertaking his ae-
tivities. Moreover if man is to remain
civilized being he must be held to his
business of producer and protector. She
cannot overlook her obligation to keep
him up TO his part in the partnership
and she cannot wisely interfere too
much with that part. The fate of the
meddler is common knowledge!
"A few women in every country have
always and probably always will find
work and usefulness and happiness in
exceptional tasks. There are. some
times, women who are born with what
we call bachelor souls an interesting
and sometimes even charming, though
always an incomplete possession. More
often they are women who by the bung
ling machinery of society have been cast
aside. There is no reason why these
women should be idle, miserable, selfish
or tnai-soeial. There are rich lives for
them to work out and endless needs for
them to meet. But they are not the wom-
mn upon whom society depends; they
are not the ones who build the nation.
The women who count are those who
outnumber them hundred to onethe
women who are at the great business of
founding and filling the natural social
centers, which we call homes Humanity
will rise or fall as that center is strong
or weak, 1t is the human core"
