Joseph l.. Crupper, Republican,:
James +. Johnston. PrchibitionlSt,
and the Socialist, Milton Fling. The
Socialist vote is not figured as
factor in the fight. and the Republi-
can vote is not big enough to be
threatening. At one time. a few
weeks ago. it was said the Prohibi-
tionists would muster surprising
show Of strength against Mr.. Carln
because of his vote against State
wide prohibition. In the last few
weeks. however. it seems he has done
away with much of this opposition.
One of the "dry' men IN his dis
trict described the situation as fol-
lows:
The mass of voters in the country
districts are inclined to take the
attitude that Mr.. Cariin, being one
of the most brilliant and most nigh
minded men in Congress, had a risht
to vote on the liquor question as he
saw fit. And they are opposed to
fight en- him merely because of this
vote when they remember the big
work he has done in the House dur
ing the past session. | am inclined
to believe that when the votes are
counted en- the night Of election day
it will bc found that lIr. Carlln's
majority will have been cut down
much less than was estimated two
weeks ago"
AS matter Of fact. MIR. Carlln
has been better advertised md set
more in the public eye during the
last two years than has been the
case before. He has gathered tremen-
dous strength and great following
because of his GGtirinr and ,listin-
ruished work on the Judiciary COM

This, in conjunction, with untlrrng

cause of this situation he has not had
time to make campaign speeches and

churches on Sunday. The most of the
best Christians find their way to the
House of GOD on the Sabbath Day. The
idea that to succeed in business one
must descrate the day God has set aside
for himself is not only harmful to our
self, but dishonornig God. The best reg

Concerning William HouOard Taft

Concerning William HoUdrd Taft.
When William Howard Taft was
President he found a Supreme Court
Judge to appoint every few weeks.
President Wilson has had his first op-
portuuty and there have been many
ambitious candidates for the place.
There has been sort of popular super
stition for good many years that the
supreme Court would never be entirely
completed until William Howard Taft
was elevated to the bench. However,
the successor to Mr.. Taft is apparently
not enthusiastic over the suggestion.
Anyhow, Mr.. Taft is likely beyond the
age where he cares to WORK very hard,
if he ever did have such notions and he
likely will not quarrel with fortune
even though his successor in the Presi-
dentcy does allow blm to remain at
Yale in the ordinary capacity of Pro
fessor"

remain that the United States is facing

meat supply is running lower ana lowsr
each year, and therefore prices must
necessarily be higher.

Anti-fat Remedies

The Bureau of chemistry of TIE
Agricultural Department at Washing
ton has been conducting a series of
tests of number OF nostrums used by
people who wish to lose surplus flesh.
The result has been that the aut-fat
remedies have not proven their worth,
inasmuch as some have been shown to
he positively injurious, while under the
treatment patients have been found to
gain rather than lose flesh. The Agrl-
cultural Department appears to think
that all these remedies are more or
less takey. since it concludes that loss
of flesh is by no means blessing If &C
companied by loss of health. energy or
strength, as is the case with many re-
med;es, Former President Taft has
given the evidence OF practical methods
OF reducing his weight. He carries
out a logical form diet accompanied Y
