HATS OFF!

Hats off to William Howard Taft.
The President who goes out today did
surely find Jordan a hard road to
travel! He that journeyed from Jeru'
salem to Jericho found not harder
Injins on the upper way,
And death upon the lower,
Every mile beset with PERIL the tariff
sink holes; the Ballinger morass; the
Pinchot ambuscade, though of pop
guns, exasperating if not murderous;
the yawning chasms and impossible
CULTS of progressivism, az, still surviv-
ing, he came down the home stretch,
the Jersey steeple chaser forging
ahead and finding bridge over the
bodies of the slain piled up in the
ditch which Roosevelt made.
Hats off to William Howard Taft!
He was called to answer many sins
not his own. There is something worse
in this wicked old world than de-
feat; dishonor. All the Teddys on top
of dirt can not lay that cross of humil-
iation upon the back, nor press that
cross of shame upon the brow, of
William Howard Taft. He'll is full
OF desecrated friendships; broken
pledges; unexpiated sins and unes-
capable mistakes; but heaven has still
one halo left for him, He Done His
DUTY as He Seen It." writ all over in
letters of living light.
Hats off to William Howard Taft!
Long may he live to show what an ex-
President ought to be! Nature herself
may stand uncovered and eXclaim;
Behold a Man!"-Louisville Courier
Journal.

the entire company was fully up TO
the measure OF the magnificent me-
chanical perfection Of the production,
and although the cast is entirely too
large to make individual mention of
all, justice demands 1t, for each was
clearly an artist in his or her part
Tom Arnold as the prince and Frank
Harsh as Daniel Stuart were easily the
favorites. Betty Caldwell as Bonnie
Stuart and Charles Corwin as the gar
dener were most excellent. Eva Carey
as Virginia Stuart and Vivian For
rest, who took the part of Mrs. Daniel
Stuart, were very pleasing. The col
lege boys were splendid, and all the
chorus singing was good, while the
dancing was above the average.
The introduction of the old sweet
hearts of the prince in bygone days
was exceedingly beautiful, and the
creation Of the prince in the Land of
Lunatania was bewitching.
The Prince of Tonight" was by far
the best production in the way of
musical extravaganzas that has ap-
peared at the Colonial this season.

CAN'T CROSS "DRY" TERRITORY.

The Memphis Commercial Appeal
says of the Kenyon-Webb bill that "it
not only prohibits the shipment OF
whiskey or other liquors into a dry
State, but through dry State. In
other words, liquor manufactured in
Illinois can not be shipped over the Hi
nois Central Railroad into Louisiana
because it would have to pass through
Tennessee and Mississippi, both States
being prohibition States"
If that be true, can liquor be brought
into Dallas, for instance, seeing that
Dallas is entirely surrounded by dry"
territory?
Evidently this new measure against
the liquor traffic has started some
thing.-Waco Times-Herald.
Pretty soon the "critter" will have
to be manufactured on the ocean and
drank while aboard ship on the high
seas. Just as like as not, however,
they'll declare the ocean dry" terri
tory.
