Add to thig net that only during
the last few weeks have President
Taft's friends in Missouri been organ
lied and active in the conduct Of a
campaign Of education throughout
the state, and there is apparent the
foundation upon which the Roosevelt
leaders have been basing their claims
Of sweeping the state and sending a
Roosevelt delegation to the Chicago
convention.
A tour Of the state during the last
week has revealed the fact that there
is no demand for Mr.. Rooseyelt,s
candidacy in the popular sense. that
much of the sentiment Is plainly man
ufactured and that Mr.. Taft has
gained 50 much ground during the last
ten days that it is now assured he
Will have a majority ofsthe delegates.
This is admitted by the Roosevelt
leaders in their willingness to COM
promise on split delegation, but Mr..
Taft's friends believing In the good
judgment of the people of the state
and entirely satisfied with the pres
emit trend Of sentiment and. the man
ner in which the president is making
friends, are continuing the pro-nomi-
nation campaign, assured of ma
jority Of the states thirty-six dele
iates, with number of now doubtful
districts, in which the Roosevelt lead
ers are making strenuous efforts,
gradually swinging toward President
Taft.
Commenting upon the North Dakota
primary, Director Mckinley said:

Roosevelt IN yesterdays North Da-
ko;a primary. the coloners adherehts
are excusing their misfortune by the
charge that Democrats and Socialists

AS to the Middle West as
Shown by Men Who
Reside There.

WASHINGTON, Mar. "a. There Is
no state in the great Middle West
where the Roosevelt leaders have been
making more confident claims OF
sweeping success than in Missouri.
Their optimism with respect to the
result in this commonwealth Of the
selection Of delegates to the Chicago
national convention appears to be
based on the following
First, that Governor Hadley, Miss
ourl's first Republican governor in
forty years. who commends consid-
cradle strength for this reason, II for
no other. has been working openly
and vigorously to secure Roosevelt
delegates and has thrown the weight
of his personal influence and the pow
err Of the state machine into the con-
fiict.
Second. that the state has been
blanketed by literature from the var
ious Roosevelt headquarters opposing
the denomination of President Taft
and severely tritic:sing him for his
advocacy of Canadian reciprocity while
naturally omiting all mention of the
fact that Colonel Roosevelt is on rec
ord with an unqualified endorsement
of the reciprocity pact and of the
presidents efforts in its behalf.
Third, that postmasters and other
federal oflce-holders appointed by
President Taft are observing the let
ter and spirit of the strict order of
some months ago warning them
against political activity and are TAX
ing. no part in the spirited contests in
the various districts, while such as
are followers from the Roosevelt re-
gime are openly and .avowedly work
ing in the interest of another term for
the former president.

Soft Water Available Everywhere

Every woman knows the luxury of
having soft water at her command, es-
peciaily for washing clothes, but Nature
has denied this luxury to many, espe-
cially to those living in cities or in
''hard water" countries.
However, every woman can have soft
water in her home with little trouble
and less expense. The sprinkling of
Gold Dust washing powder in the water
from your taps or well will make It as
soft as the rain water that falls from the
clouds. Gold Dust takes out the mineral
substances that make the water hard and
brings out the greatest cleansing value.

WHITE PLAINS, N. j., Nov. 81
County Judge w. P. Platt at this place
made record when he sentenced Fred
Fawcett, alias Harry Jones, burglar
to Sing Sing prison at hard labor. The
prisoner, who was known as the "whis-
ering burglar" and accused of robbing
homes of many very wealthy New
Workers on Long Island, was dir.ctly
harged with stealing large amount of
jewelry from the home of Frank R.
Chambers at Bronxville
Fawcett, when he received the sent

for the remainder of his life, simply
said: Il thank you, judge"
AS Fawcett, or Jones, had also been
Indicted for carrying revolver and for
to kill two Mount Vernon
policemen, after the Chambers robbery,
Judge Platt could have given him a
sentence aggregating close to 80 years.
AS he has already spent 20 years, ac-
cording to his own admissions, in pris-
3ns, his total sentences aggregate over

Socialists Talk Of War.

BERLIN, Nov 27-The declaration
that Germany is entertaining the pos
sibility of war was made by Vor-
waerts, a socialist newspaper, which
declares $40,O00,000 in the new budget
under the heading of General FL
nances and Administration" is really
intended to pay for clothing and pro-
visions of men and beasts in the army
and navy, which have been accumulat-
ed against the possible outbreak of
war;
The Vorwaerts says it has reached
a conclusion from its own knowledge
OF the budget, stating that the in
crease in the army and navy expenses
over that stated by the government is
$315, 900.

administration for political reasons
In this way Congressman Burton L.
French, who leaves, with Mrs. French,
for Washington tomorrow, this after
noon expressed his view of the coming
session.
And while that view so expressed
seems far from hopeful, yet the condi-
ton it reveals is most hopeful to north
Idaho.

news sources, and the real information
coming from Russia and Germany is
so slight that there is more than a sus-
picion that the censors there also are
busy.
Austria's move in sending a torpedo
flotilla down the Danube is without a
doubt a threat of actual conflict, and
the report from Budapest that reserves
are being ordered to the colors gives
further indication that the hour of
struggle may be near The best infor-
nation available is that Austria has
more than 100000 men on war foot
ing.
Just how much dependence may be
placed on the German reports which
have been allowed to come from Berlin
is not known. There is little doubt in
diplomatic circles here, however, that
the kaiser will be found ready to sup
port Austria and Italy if the clash
that the reservists of five German army
corps have been ordered to the colors
is taken here as an indication that the
situation could not be graver.
On the other side of the possible bat
tie line, Russia is known to have for
weeks been massing men on her Polish
and German frontiers and it is not
that her armies will oppose in
the field the eastward march of Austria
which, if carried out to it's logical con-
elusion, would bring either the Aus
trian or the German eagles to the Bos-
phorus in time.
No official information of what Brit
ain intends in the matter is obtainable
here, the Horse Guards and the admir-
atty and foreign office continuing their
policy of reticence. So far
as can be learned, England has made
no move toward land mobilization,
but it is believed that both British and
French warships in the Mediterranean
are notified to be on the watch to at
once protect the interests of the EN-
tente cordiale, should clash come.
