TAFT CONTRADICTS REPORT
President Denies Statement Attrib'
uted to New York Speech.
CALLS STORY A FALsEHooD
Chief Executive Says He Did Not
Say that People Are Not
Fitted for self-Gov-
ernment.

WASHINGTON, Feb. A-Presideni
Taft today denied emphatcally that in q
speech In New York on Lincoln's birth
day he said: THAT the people are not
fitted for self-government." In the first
official statement Of this kind that the
White House has ever issued during the
Taft administration the president calls the
circulation Of this story q ''falsehood."
The White House statement follows:
Among the falsehoods that are now
being assiduously circulated by persons
and papers opposed to the president Is
one that In his Blncoln's day speech the
president argued that the people are not
fitted for self-government.' President
Taft said nothing on that occasion which
possibly could be tortured into any such
construction.
The speech In which the president
made reference TO popular government
was delivered at the banquet Of the State
Bar association in New York on the night
OF January 20. What he then said on this
subject and It was correctly quoted in the
newspapers the following day. was this:
Popular government we all believe in.
There are those oeus who do not believe
all people are fitted for popular govern
ment. The fact is we know they are not.
Some OF US dare not say so, but do;
and the question whether q people IL

speak for the president that his correc-
ton OF tho Interpretation placed by
some people upon his New YORK speech
included Mr.. Roosevelt. political leaders
here believe such to be the case.
Many OF President Taft's friends have
asserted that Colonel Roosevelt had Mr..
Taft in fnind when In his columh.is
speech he said:
Many eminent lawyers who more or
less frankly disbelieve in our entire

in any case; and that therefore the judges

In the same connection Mr.. Roosevelt
also said:

Held ANYWHERE This
Year.

omahas seventh annual automobile
show became a thing Of the past at
midnight last night. and today the en-

up what profit they made on sales during
tho week.

highly gratlfied.

the title Of automobile center Of tho
west" said one Of the exhibitors last
night Chicago and Detroit men who
visited the show expressed the opinion
that the Omaha show was the best they
had ever seen outside OF Chicago and
a few eastern cities. Any experienced
automobile man who saw the show will
not doubt that Omaha is tho chief dis
tributing point for several states for au-
tomoblles."
The Omaha Automobile row Is blessed
with large number OF progressive deal
ers," said a man from Detroit. "and they
show such varied line Of cars that the
man who can't find what he wants here
will not be satisfied in heaven"
A large attendance marked the show
on the closing night. The exhibit was
kept intact until the evening was over.
for the management had promised the
public that the show would open COM
plete In detail and close IN the same con-
dition. and they kept their promise. The
cars were kept bright and shiny to the
very end and Neble's orchestra played
just as entertaining a program as on
Monday night or society night.
Whether there viii be a show next year
or not is question not discussed. IL Is
a foregons conclusion that there win be
one. The only question Is how to get
quarters big enough. Some think II would
be best TO engage the Ak-sar-Ben den.
while others believe II would be better
to build temporary annex to the Audi.

THE TRACING Of
! OUR SURNAMES
Is Rather An Interesting
Proceeding.
DID NOT BECOME HEREDITARY
Until Twelfth or Thirteenth
Century-Tbe Origin of
Some Names.
EXAMPLES OF DERIvATIoNs

In case your surname should hap
pen to be Jones, Brown, Smith or
McGillicuddy, or anything else for
that matter,yo have probably won
dered at times how such a name
originated. Some names are easy
to trace to a possible origin, but
others will always remain a puzzle,
oven to their owners.
Writing in the Directory Jour
nal, A. V. Williams deals with the
possible origin OF some surnames
and some other names that were
considered ample for any one per-
son before our ancestors attained
the dignity of surnames. The first
names OF which we have any ac-
count are those of Adam and Eve,
residence Garden of Eden. Accord
ing to Mr.. Williams, a directory at
that time would have contained but
two names. 1t is certain Adam
would have been nametaker and
Eve NhS bOiiSiIOi' III inc pC6iuhiu6
and for some considerable time la
ter, it wxs unnecessary for persons
to have more than one name; sur
names were unknown.
AS the population increased, how
ever, it became absolutely necessary
for the purpose of Identification to
have names other than the simple
personal name. The first of these
names to distinguish between indi-
viduals having the same personal
name are mentioned in the Bible:
Joshua the son of Num-" Caleb
the son of Jephunah," Simon Bar
jonas" that is Simon the son of
Jonas" Simon of Cyfene," etc. AS
the population continued to in
crease, still further marks of dis
tinction in names became necessary,
hlt 1t was not until the Twelfth or
Thirteenth century that surnames
became hereditary.
II is very interesting to learn the
source from whence came our sur
names. C. w. Bardsley in his work
on English Surnames" says that
every surname in all the countries
of Europe will be found as coming
from one of the following sources:
The Hartford herald. [volume] (Hartford, Ky.) 1875-1926, 1912-03-06

Paptismal or personal names, local
tiles, dignitaries and officers, occu-
pations or nicknames. AS examples
of surnames coming from baptismal
or personal names, the following are
some Of the most common
A man named John, having a son,
the son was distinguished from the
father by being called Johns son."
and from this came the surname of
Johnson; from Richard, James and
William we have Richardson, jane
son. Williams and Williamson.
The following are examples of
surnames derived from localities in
which persons lived: A man living
near a brook, was known as John
at the Brook" and we have from
this the surnames Brooks and
Brooks. The> Gilbert at the
Wood" gives us the surname At
wood and Wood, and William at
the Water" Atwater and Waters.
Examples OF surnames from digni-
taries and officers: Lord, Cardinal,
Bishop, Sheriff, Judge, Justice,
Priest.
The following surnames came
from occupation: Smith, Carpen-
ter, Painter, Beeman. Honeyman,
Fisher. Miller. Barber, Wheel
wright, Falconer. The following
became snrnames:

LET JUSTICE BE DONE
IN REGARD TO COLOMBIA

Fow could Secretary Knox expect
to receive a cordial welcome in CO.
lombia, or any other kind of well
come?
1t is all true, as the Colombian
Minister says, that the United
States Government, while negotiat-
ing arbitration treaties with other
countries, has refused to submit
Columbia's Panama case to arbitra-
ton.
Mr.. Roosevelt has boosted that he
took" the Canal Zone. He has
compared Colombia to a bandit"
deprived "of his blackmail." The
Taft Administration has taken no
step to give Colombia a day in
court, in spite of its appeals. Has
a country no rights whatever, mere
ly because 1t is weak?
The protest of the Colombian
Minister again calls public atten-
ton to a most disgraceful chapter
in American history. The issue of
justice in this case is one that ought
to be disposed OF before the Pana-
ma Canal is finished. When that
magnificent work of public con-
struction is finished, there should
be no stain upon the record
