LOVE TEDDY MORE
THAN UNCLE SAM

Recruits have been unusually slow
in enlisting, according to the officers
in charge Of the recruiting offices in
Richmond. Whether the Richmond
young men are afraid of the service
of Uncle Sam is question the Off
GERS are debating. One reported that
there are too many good jobs in Rich
mond for a long list of recruits, while
another feels confident after Novem-
Der 5th, men will begin to come in.
The reason they are holding back is
because they do not want to change
their residence. If they enlist they
cannot help the Progressive cause on
election day" Another reported that
a panic would be one of the best
means OF filling up the ranks of both
the army and navy.

The, national campaign of 1912 has brought
to the front as very real issue the question of
how far presidential electors are pledged to fol-
low the result of national conventions In fact
the issue is regarded by Taft leaders as import
ant enough to sway the result of the election next
November, and the case so far is not going in a
comforting manner for the adherents of the pres
ent executive.
A good deal of misunderstanding has sur
rounded the fight made by Kansas Taft leaders
to prevent the Kansas electors from going on the
regular Republicans ticket In brief the case is
this: - - $50 - 1'."
Eight candidates for electors in the state of
Kansas have declared that they will vote for
Roosevelt in the electoral college The Taft
leaders in Kansas declare that the eight were
Nominated with the understanding that they
would abide by the result of the Republican ma

electors nominations had been achieved through
fraud and applied to the Kansas courts to pre-
bic the names of these electors from appearing

That they have failed to- do this In
several instances is only too evident,
