yards.
The Coyotes were completely out
'classed after the first half. During
the first two quarters the South Da-
kota boys put up a great game and
managed to keep the ball in their
opponents territory. The end OF the
first half found the ball on Notre
DANES 25 yard line.
II was not until the third quarter
that the Catholics managed to get
their forward pass working true to
form. /. In the first two quarters the
visitors tried for gains over the air
route six times, In only one In
stance was it worked successfully.
Then the ffteen-yard gain was cut
to Ave yards when the Notre Dame
bunch was penalized ten yards for
being off side.
The interference of the Notre
Dame team was nothing short of
marvellous. Time after time back
field men got through for good gains
due to the wonderful work of the de-.
Tense. Time after time Coffal went
through tackle.
With a body guard that could be
stopped only with a stone wall, h
South Dakota team would break up
one defense to get to the inner
only to find itself up against a sec
ond defense which vas equally as
strong AS the first.
The Coyotes had little chance of
scoring, never getting nearer the
Catholics goal line than twenty-five
yards. From appearances Coach
Cortright had drilled his team on
defensive tactics only. 1t was plain
that his only hope was in holding
the visitors to a low score. Thirteen
forward passes, were tried by the
South Dakota team, and q total of
twenty-five yards was the result. A
total Of 800 yards was realized by
the Coyotes on punts and about ESQ
yards on scrimmages, The first
touchdown was made about seven
minutes after the opening Of the.
second half. With the ball in the.

PASsIN OF ENGLAND'S WAR HERO.

The death of Field Marshal Earl Rob-
erts removes one of the famous military
lights of G-eat Britain whose name be
came familis- in connection with the war
in South Afr1-a, of which he was Eng
lands hero. Ie had already Won his
rpurs in connection with military service
In India, where ne had gained the sohri-
uuet of "Bobs," a nickname being the
way in which the British public betokens
its affection for a public man, except
once in a great while as when il called
Disraeli. or Lord Beaconsfeld, as he lat
ter came to be known, as "Dizzy." Lord
Roberts was unquestionably a soldier Of
the first rank and while owing TO his
age the burden of service had largely
passed to Lord Kitchener, the British
people never lost its fondness for the man
who will long linger close to the English
heart as plain "BobS."

FORESEES TAFT IN 1916.
A. the Victorious Republican Nomine'
Some Very Partisan Views.

(From the Baltimore Americana
No one outside the Democratic party
and the scattered remnants of the pro-
gressive organization doubts the return
to power of the Republican party In 1916
This confidence is based upon the results
of the late election. 1t is not, however
wholly so based. The conditions making
for the population of the democrats re-
main and will be intensified with the pas
sage of the months, They have the oour1
hon fatality of never learning anything
They have doomed themselves to be CON
demned by the people because they nave
condemned the people to suffer the I'M
Fiction of partisan LEGISLATION that was
conceived and effected without regard to'
national conditions or national needs
The prominence with which tho nams
of former President Taft is mentioned
for the nomination in 1916 Is not due e
dearth of good material but to thu rae
that he seems best TO typify and to em
body the truest experience Of the natior
and the truest standards of national ad
ministration During his retirement from
office he has commanded the respect q
the entire people by his dispassionate
balanced and discerning EXPRESSION
upon national matters This fact fur
nishes one of the best reasons for believ
ing that in 1915 the standard bearer 81
the Republican party for the rehablita
ton of the country's ideals ana practi
cal agencies will be William HowaT

PRISONERS WE'LL FED.

There are l9S prisoners confined at the
number consumes about nine bushels OF
potatoes and two barrels of -four daily
besides accessories. Corn beef Is given
once a week and requires about $50 pounds
to a meal. There are about 20 gallons
of baked beans cooked each week. Pea
soup Is served every Wednesday, about
40 quarts of the dry peas making % gal
Ions of the soup. Friday $50 pounds of
paddock and $50 Of salt salmon are used.
onions are placed on the tables at each
meal and the prisoners use on an average
of five bushels week. They also use
weekly about 100 pounds of coffee and loo
pounds of tea. About 500 bushels of po-
tatoes are raised yearly off the farm at
the institution and at present there are
about loo bushels in the cellar. NJ a.
Loukes, superintendent of the institu-
ton, says: The prisoners are given to-
matoes, string beans, peas. green corn
Cucumbers lettuce and beets fresh from
the prison garden in season and a supply
of all the winter vegetables raised on the
prison farm is stored away. The regular
hill of fare is sometimes varied by the
use of fried meat for dinner, or ginger
bread for supper Extras are furnished
on the generally observed holidays Salt
pepper vinegar and mustard are always
on the table"

CAN TAFT COME BACK:

In an article reprinted in another
column the baltimore American argues
that William Howard Taft will he the
candidate Of the Republican party for
the presidency in 1916 and what is still
more to the point that the republicans
will surely win in 1916,
As one Of the two States which Presi-
dent William Howard Taft carried in
1912. Vermont will have peculiar interest
I'm this political prognostication and prcsi-
dental prophecy combined. Acting upon
the theory of Daniel Webster, whose light
for the future was the lamp of the past
we search the political annals of the
United States for parallel, and We find
that at the end Of the first democratic
administration following the great civil
War, Grover Cleveland left the White
House as a result of the election of 1855
almost as dscredited politically though
not in figures as was Mr.. Taft in 1912,
yet he not only came back but also led
his party to great triumph IN 1892
when he defeated BENJAMIN Harrison for
reelection But Cleveland had not split
his party then nor caused a new party
to arise.

HOUSE OF GOVERNORS AND LEGIs-
LATION.


The blouse Of Governors" which is
the direct outgrowth of the conserva-
ton conference of governors and as
sistants called by President Roosevelt at
the White House in 1905 and which has
been holding n session in Madison, WIS,
will meet next year in Boston, where, 1t
terest to New England will be among
the topics considered
! One Of the most important subjects Of
discussion at Madison was the adoption
of measures to the end that Legislators
give heed to the peoples will in framing
new laws. Governor Ammons of Colo
authors of bills be eliminated by requir-
ing all measures TO be introduced through
committees, although he noted an in
creasing disposition to follow the lead OF
the state executive as far as possible
with reference to now legislation.
both Of these suggestions have an inn
mont at the present time. It has been
urged that inasmuch as tho Governor Of
the state is tho one chiefly held respon-
siblc in elections he should be recog-
nizcd as the party leader in connection
with legsation and given a largo voice
in shaping the policies of the state dur
i,,, bte ,1,,,Irietr,
This idea Of narrowing down respon-
sihiity for government is the keynote OF
commission form of government for cities,
and that is the slogan in various states
which advocate the shortening of the bal
lot and the authorization of the appoint
mcnt of some Of the lesser state officers
by the Governor, who Is to be held
chiefly responsible by the people.
This is matter which will bear a
large degree Of consideration but IN any
event the Governor of the state should
be followed by the legislator in fulfilling
party pledges.
AS regards the elimination Of the author
Of n bill and the introduction of all meas
ures through some committee there are
manifostly two sides to the question. II
remove much of the incentive for per
sonal effort. while on the other hand, il
becomes more difficult to trace the
source Of an Objectionable measure
which a member might hesitate to INTRO
duce, if his name were known. Their
are other things to be said on both side
Of this question also.
What We desire to notice especially il
this connection is the reference Of a cor
respondent to the fact that the officia
legislative revisers have sent a dozel
or SO blanks for bills to members of tn
forthcoming Legislature with the reques
that any desired bill be formulated a
soon rs possible and forwarded to then,
This is in line with suggestions mad
in recent years in these columns tina
legislators should present their lmportan
bills promptly at the beginning OF tn
session, instead of holding the same hac
until near the day desired for fnal ad
iournmcnt and thus forcing much half
baked legislation.
Our correspondent fears that the invI
tation to fill in these blanks will lea
most of the 27G members Of both House
combined Of whom only score or :
have had legislative experience, to act o
