R00SEVElT'S STRENGTH
Is FALLING OFF
Washington Republicans outnumber
Democrats and Third Termers
Combined,

Seattle, Wash, Sept. 2S.-In the re-
cent primaries in this state the Pro
gressfves a s about $4,000 votes out
OF a total vote exceeding 300, 900, or
about eight in every hundred. The
Republican vote was greater than
that of the Democrats and the Third
TERRIERS combined.
S. w. Perkins, Republican national
committeeman for Washington, who
a been engaged in making a canvass
OF the political situation In this state,
says that he is in receipt of letters
from every section indicating a re-
markable falling off of Roosevelt's
strength. The figures of the primary
demonstrate that these letters accu-
rately present popular sentiment.
Mr.. Roosevelt claimed the Wash
ington delegation In the Republican
National convention in Chicago. The
absurdity, not to say dishonesty. of
bis claim, is proven by the poor show
Tag made by his followers in the re-
cent primary.

LUCK

LOSh
Brother, cease your bitter wailing,
Let your sickly frown depart;
Possibly your liver's ailing-
Don't let that affect your heart.
Luck, you say, has blessed another
Who has oft been blessed before
But there's luck remaing, brother;
There is always plenty more.
Ever since the first man muttered,
Calling luck a stubborn jade;
Ever since the first swain suffered
Love to an unwilling maid;
Ever since the sky first blended
With the treetops on a hill,
Men have thought good luck vas ended
But there's plenty of it stii.
Luck is like the love a mother
Lavishes upon her son;
From the store that's endless, brother,
Through the ages it has won,
Ever since man first abused it
Luck has been in ample store,
And no matter who has used it
There will still be plenty more. S.

Campaign Interview Given Out

DEFENDS WOOL BILL VETO
Republican Candidate Hints at Extra
Session Should Republicans Con-
troll Next Congress.

New York, Sept. 26.-In a campaign
interview president Taft unequivo.
cally promised a revision of the tariff
downward should he be reelected and
limited at an extra session of congress
to bring about that revision shoul
the Republicans control the next con-
gress.
He declared that the third party
trust plans, with an INSCRIPTIONS man
as president, might lead to a dictator
ship that only revolution could re-
move.
He denied Governor Wilson's asser-
ton that the protective tariff has put
American industries In q straitjacket;
declared that American workingmen
already are more prosperous than
those In Europe and asserted that the
Democratic vool and cotton bills
would have driven American manu-
~facturers to England and Germany.
Referring to the high cost OF living
the president expressed the opinion
that the American werkmen were
very much better OF than the work.
men OF Europe; not only were they
able to pay the high cost Of living, he
said, but they could also put some
thing aside for a rainy day. The Payne
tariff law had no more to do with ad-
vancing the high cos Of living than
the latest Atlantic cable tariff. he de-
clared.
Referring to woman suffrage the
president said that this issue would
have to be decided by the various
states and that he believed women to
be as capable OF wise use Of the ballot
as men
In the matter OF recall OF judges
the president said he regarded the
maintenance of an Independent judici-
airy as a supreme issue and that the
recall applied to judges would tend
to deprive the publ OF judges of
ability. character and a high sense of
duty.

LITTLE SENTIMENT
FOR ROOSEVELT
Minnesota Republicans Have No In
terest in a Third Term Party.

Minneapolis, MINI, Sept. 27.-The
recent primaries in this state demon
strate that the Roosevelt sentiment in
this state Is decidedly OF the decrease.
The denominations of Governor Eber.
hart and Senator Nelson, both loyal
Republicans and Taft supporters, have
encouraged the Republicans OF this
state TO make a vigorous and aggres-
siv fight.
Little sentiment Is found In Wiscon-
sin for Roosevelt, and the cantest,
without doubt, Is narrowed down be-
tween Taft and Wilson. The bust
ness men of Milwaukee, and other
Wisconsin cities, are rallying to the
support of the Republican ticket and
volunteering their services to elect
Taft. The prosperous condition of
their business urges them to support
the present administration.

POPULAR VERDICT AGAINST ROOSEVELT

In every state in which the people have had a opportunity to
express their sentiment since the nomination of President Taft the
verdict has been adverse to Colonel Roosevelt and has demonstrated
the increasing disinteg grafton and eventual collapse Of the third party.
The results Of the regular and primary elections thus far held
