Ex.pr.sident Optimistic.

Ex-President Taft told members OF
the Hamilton club that the Republic
ans would come back to power
next year. He paid his respects to
the Democratic administration by say
ing that President Wilson should in
no way receive credit for the present
indications of prosperity.
Mr.. Taft put the finishing touches
on his Republican optimism by say
ing the Progressives were coming back
into the party in droves.
The rank and file of the Progress
sives are coming back so rapidly" said
Mr.. Taft, that in 1916 there viii not
be enough left In their own organiza-
ton to make their party anything
more than a negligible quantity.
Present prosperity is no reason for
continuing the present national admin
istration in power. The Wilson adj
ministration was not an agency IL
bringing on this prosperity. Place the
country in the hands of the grand old
party again and prosperity will be
with us to stay.
THE 1912 defeat of the Republicans
was a good thing for the party. / am
able to say it because | was the first
man hit. Sixteen years of power had
weakened the cohesion Of the RepGb-
lican party. The interest of groups
had transcribed the interest OF the
party as a whole.
Then, guided by wonderful per
sonality. the break came in 1912.
Those gentlemen may now stand aside
and regard their handiwork-the
Democratic administration. They are
not satisfied. and so have come back
into the old party. II the proper man
is selected to run. the Republicans
will have good chance of victory in
1916"

CREDIT NOT THEIRS
Democrats Insincere in State
ments Concerning Prosperity.
War Has Caused a Boom In Industries
Which Otherwise Would Have
Been Practically at
StandstiIl.

The subjoined opinion is credited
to Hon. Oscar W. Underwood. for
rlerly leading tariff maker in the
house and now senator from Ala
bama:
Our manufacturing industries in
the Birmingham district have the
largest payroll in their history. and
they have not accepted a single war
order. | believe this country is on
the eve Of a very prosperous condi-
ton of business and that we will soon
begin TO feel the effects of il through
cut the country; in fact we are al.
ready beginning to feel it in some
sections. as. for instance. in the Bir-
mingham district. The situation pre-
vailing there prevails to E certain de-
gree elsewhere
And for precisely the same reasons.
Manufacturing planCs elsewhere are
SO choked with war orders that BUSH
ness which otherwise might have been
theirs naturally goes to the Birming-
ham district or to other districts that
are in q position to handle it.
Disentanglement of the country's
impressive industrial activity from the
direct and indirect war causes under
lying that activity is an intricate
problem. Its solution is not furthered
but rather complicated by state
ments that tempt to misleading de-
auctions.
The ratio Of resnonsibititv IN he
charged up against the Underwood
tariff for the deplorable ante-bellum
business conditions and the CONNER
cial disaster toward which we were
then apparently moving with such
alarming rapidity has yet to be def;
nitely determined. Perhaps it never
will be determined definitely.

BY nine o'clock the sun was shining
above the peaks and the fog had van
ished from the valleys. and although
it was late fall there was no feeling
of the death of the year. On the con-
trary, there was a sense of hustle and
hurry and work beginning with the
advent of the rains. The tidewater

sweet air of the high hills and began
