Mr.. R%O0sevelt's setback In Msssa-
chusetts.

In the Presidential election Of 1912
President TAFT received only 1890
more votes than Mr.. ROOSEVELT in
Massachusetts. the totals being 1885,
94S and 142,22S respectively. The sum
Of these totals was 29S,11 votes. or
1"4,16S more than were received by
WOODROW WILSON, who carried Massa-
chusetts 10y 17,46O. In the Republican
primary election on Tuesday a Roose-
welt ticket for delegates ut large to
the Chicago convention had the nd.
vantage Of leading the ballot, and the

Of CHARLES SUMNER BIRD. the most
popular of Massachusetts Progressive
Republicans. The high man on an
"unpledged' ticket was Governor
SAMUEL W. Mccall. who received
$50 votes, or 1878 more than were
cast for BIRD.

NEW YORK,S CANDIDATE.
Editor Belts Holds the Governors
Prediction 10 the Light of the Polls.

To THE EDITOR OF n SuS-Sir: In
the discussion of public questions the
people are entitled to have the facts m
stead OF being forced to be contented
with the unsupported assertions or any
man. Therefore | should like space In
your valuable paper to correct a state
ment in the interview given out by
Governor Whitman to the newspapers
on Monday. The Governor says:
| have no doubt whatever that II a vote
could he taken among the Republicans
in this state Justice Hughes would lead
any other candidate at least 0 to !.
Not only Ia this an unsupported as
sertion. but the Governor has done some
thing which a man in his position ought
not to do. He has drawn his material
for this statement. entirely from his W
Imagination. The voters of the state
Of New York have spoken upon the
subject of the strength and popularity
Of Governor Hughes in this state. and
they have told an altogether different
story.
Governor Hughes after he had served
q term OF two years as Governor was
a candidate for denomination and re-
election. The convention nominated him
and placed him at the head of the ticket.
The voters placed him at the foot OF the
ticket. In the election OF 1908 the ticket
In this State received the following plu-
~ralities:
Plurality.
TAFT. for President. ............. 2o2 ~.
O'Malley, Attorney-General ........1 44,O 8s
Williams. state Engineer. .14o,Os1
Dunn. Treasurer. ....... .12s,co'
Koenig. Secretary OF .1??,&'s
white. Lieutenant-G Governor. .......11?.Il
Gaus. Comptroller. e"'sts
Hughe~, Governor. .s'''.''''' ""f"-
These are the figures. These are the
facts. and tho sentiment OF the voters
Is always expressed at the ballot box
and not in interviews.
! shall be very glad to support Justice
Hughes for President II he is nominated,
and | shall be equally glad to support
any good Republican, but In the dis
cussion of the availability Of candidates
we should all confine the discussion TO
the facts and to the truth and not draw
on our imagination.
Seneca has called our attention to the
fact that right reason Is natures per-
lection" He might have added that
false assertions and assumptions are the
dcformed children Of the brain.

cooperation with the Democratic ma

Nash Works Hard
Booming the Jefery

j. A. Bentz is firmly convinced that
there isn't man among the thousands
working in the big plant of the Nash
Motors Company that labors harder
than c. w. Nash himself, the concern S
chief executive. He's really the mar
vel of the automobile industry.
Just now Mr.. Nash is toiling like a
Trojan in an effort to bring the pro-
duction of Jeffery motorcars and
trucks up to somewhere near the de-
mand. Like the men working for
him, the manufacturer reports every
morning at whistle time. All day he
spends out in the works amid the hum
and whir of machinery, and then,
seemingly fresh despite his nine hours
of effort, goes to his office and puts
in several more hours caring for his
administrative duties. It's rare day
that he doesn't work twelve hours.
Mr.. Nash is coatless worker, too.
1t has to be a pretty cool day to find
him with a coat on. He's been that
way all his life, and that's why, per
haps, he is so conversant with the
problems entering into every single
phase of the automobile business. He's
a production expert, knows shop con-
ditions from alpha to omega, and is
thoroughly informed in the intricacies
of accounting, service, advertising,
merchandising, office management and
what not.
And it is due altogether to his inti-
mate knowledge of such things, cou-
pied with his long, fruitful experience
in methods of factory organization,
that enables him to keep overhead ex-
penses down to a minimum. He's a
stickler for labor ands time-saving de-
vice, too. Thus he is able to turn out
the utmost in quality at the least in
price.
Being "doer," C. w. Nash has lit
tie time to talk about himself. In
fact, he's about as communicative
about his own affairs as a phonograph
minus records and needle points.
Which explains why. when asked the
other day to define his secret of sue
cess, the interviewer came away with
such a short commentary as this:
Whatever success / have made
during my career as a manufacturer -
he said, II attribute to my close appli-
cation to details and to my careful Sc

S e n a tor Lodge Arraigns
'Dreary Catalogue of Short
comings" of Administration

Boston, Oct. z. Delegates rep
resenting the Republican party in
Massachusetts met in State conven-
ton to-day to adopt a platform and
choose presidential electors. The
gathering also served as ratification
of the vote Elm the recent primaries
when Senator Henry Cabot Lodge,
Governor Samuel w. Mccall. and
other State officers were renominated.
Senator Lodge had prepared a
lengthy address in which he ar
raigned what he termed 'the dreary
catalogue of shortcomings" of the
present administration. He dwelt
particularly upon President Wilson'S
conduct of foreign relations.
Shutting Methods
"I have watched with bitter regret"
he said, "the shuffiing methods of
dealing with other nations which have
made us hang our heads in shame
when the noisy boast of keeping us
out of war has filled the air. The
whole course of this administration in
dealing with the grave questions
which Mexico on the one side and the
war In Europe on the other hand
brought to us, has tended to loosen
the f1bers of American conscience In
such times it is the duty of the
President to lead, and this President
has dropped to the rear and has oc-
cupied himself with confusing the
public mind and lowering the Amer
lean spirit. He has pushed aside the
American traditions, darkened the
ideals of the country and reduced
the aspirations which we once held to
the level of a mere desire to live
sheltered and in comfort"

Chandler to Continue
the Present Model

One of the most important recent
announcements in automobile circles
is that Just issued by the Chandler
Motor Car Company of Cleveland to
the effect that for the coming season
the Chandler company will continue
its present model and that there will
be no reduction in price of Chandler
cars. The announcement adds that in
all probability the Chandler price will
be advanced.
There is no doubt regarding what
the Chandler Motor Car Company is
going to offer its patrons for the COM
ing season. says Andrew Redmond.
I have just received word from Cleve-
land that the factory has decided to
let well enough alone and that no radi-
cal changes are contemplated for 1911.
The wonderful success of the Chandler
company is due to the fact that it has
established an enviable reputation for
itself and has concentrated on a six
cylinder car that has made good and
is steadily increasing in popularity all
over the United States. The factory
officials have decided to continue the
present Chandler six for another sea-
son. 1t would be a difficult matter to
Improve on the marvellous motor which
has become famous for its remarkable
power. fiexibility. simplicity and econ
omy. This motor has stood the test of
time and it is giving the very best of
service to owners of Chandler cars.
All that we hear. Is comment of the
most favorable nature regarding the
way 1T is standing UP and delivering
the goods
What is true of the motor applies
with equal force to the beautiful wal
nut paneled tonneau-cowl type OF
bodies. with soft, deep cushions and
lustrous finish. These body types are
recognized as being in class by them
selves and they were so far in advance
when first introduced that they have
become an accepted standard in high
grade body Building.
Regarding the price I am assured
that the Chandler will not be sold at
lower figure, but in all probability
an advance in price will be made.
while the Chandler company has
been very successful from the start, it
was the price announced a year ago
last February that gave the Chandler
its greatest boom. When that an
nouncement was made the Chandler
established a new standard of value in
up-to-date motor cars. This value
was made possible through quantity
production and the boom is still under
way. In 1916 the production of Chan
dler cars will be $4,000 and in 1917
the production will be at least 10000
cars. Contracts have already been
placed for materials for this produc-
tion and the Chandler we are now
offering our patrons will be just as
up-to-date next spring as the cars that
will be coming through from the fac
tory at that time"

Eight-Hour LatD as Passed
Is Bitterly Scored by Taft

Indianapolis, Ind. Oct. THE eight
hour law recently enacted by Congress
wes attacked by William H. Taft last
night when he addressed thousands of
persons at thee Coliseum, discussing
the development of constitutional gov
ernment of the state. Mr.. Taft's speech
was part of the county day program
in connection with Indiana's centen-
NAL celebration.
Mr.. Taft declared that the law for
bids the formation of ordinations for
oppression. But, he said, there has
developed in this country a tendency
in high quarters to disregard consti-
tutional limitations and to overlook
certain classes of acts, provided a po-
liticalsadvantage could be gained. He
regarded the eight-hour law as such
and said:
This is the most noteworthy in
stance of q group whose labor was
nece ssary that society may live refus-
ing to perform it's function in the So
cial machinery"
