 Chairman Lodge, members of Notih- cation Committee, members of National Committee, ladies and gentlemen: The message which you have formally con- veyed brings to me a realization of responsibility which Is not underesti- mated. It Is a supreme task to inter pret the covenant of a great political party, the activities of which are 80 woven into the history of this repub- lie, and a very sacred and solemn undertaking to utter the faith and as- pirations of the many millions who adhere to that party. The party plat form has charted the way, yet, some how, We have come to expect that in- depreciation which voices the faith of nominees who must assume specific tasks.
 Let me be understood clearly from the very beginning. believe in party sponsorship in government. I believe in party government as distinguished from personal government, individual, dictatorial, autocratic or, what not.
 No man is big enough to run this great republic. There never has been one. Such domination was never in> tended. Tranquility, stability, depend ability-all aresassured in party spon- sorship, and we mean to renew the as- surances which were rended in the cataclysmal war.
 Our first committal is the restora- tion of representative popular govern ment, under the constitution, through the agency of the Republican party. Our vision includes more than a chief executive, we believe in cabinet of highest capacity, equal to the respons1-

POTATOES NEED PLANT rooD
Most Successful Growers Generally Make Application of Manure to
 Heavy Sod.

To grow potatoes successfully an abundance of plant food is required. Experiments at the Ohio experiment station show that from 10 to 16 tons of manure and from 300 to 500 pounds of acid phosphate per acre may be tfsed with profit in fertilizing potqtees.>
 The application of fresh manure to the soil just before nlowing Is asso- ciated with the development of scab on potatoes. so that early winter ap- plication of manure Is regarded us es- sentlnl. The most successful potato growers generally apply manure to a good heavy sod, preferably clover. to be plowed down in the spring.

The Lakeland Gas Co., in a large
advertisement today, makes a gener-
GUS offer and suggests possibilities in
Identifying the city. We hope other
large concerns will match them in
liberality, so that some good work
along the line indicated may be ac-
complished. If we were permitted a
suggestion, we would say let us fin
ish the improvement of Lake Morton,
W bulkheading and filling in the
shores, thereby furnishing consider
able beautiful park space. Lake Nor
ton is perhaps the greatest natural
asset Lakeland has. Every dollar
judiciously spent in improving and
identifying it will pay rich dividends.
Some communications have been
printed in this paper from a citizen
and taxpayer relative to proposed
increase in rates by the city for
lights and water. Doubtless the ar
guments advanced will be given due
consideration by the Commissioners.
We cannot but agree with him that ii
raise in these rates is necessary, the
raise should be no greater than is alb
solutely required to recover increased
cost Of operation. 1t should be borne
Ill mind that the light and water
plants were never intended to be
money-making enterprises, but that
their whole purpose is to supply these
necessities to the people at the low
cts possible price, without any con-
sideration o profits.
1t seems that the express robbery
on train near Gainesville a few days
ago was a frame-up on the part of
the messenger and some other ex-
press employees. The messenger was
found in the car, bound and gagged,
and several thousand dollars were
missing. The stage setting was such
as to impress those who found the
messenger with the idea that regu-
lar movie or dime novel performance
had been pulled or; but it appears
the actors were not smart enough to
do the stunt successfully. It is likely |
that the participants in the fiasco will |
have some time and occasion for in
dulging in reflections corroborating
the good old copy-book motto, Hon
esty is the best policy"

have been laid out, wherever available.
to care for the entries.
Motor Hall a Feature.
That Motor Hall is crowded goes
without saying. This is always show
in itself at which the latest in auto
mobile style and design may be
studied. The prospective purchaser of
a motor car here has all the different
makes before him with obliging at
tendants to explain and inform him
concerning every feature of motor,
chassis and body.
A dozen new swine barns have not
been ample TO house all the entries in
the swine department. The Kansas
futurity will be the feature here and
the various breeders associations are
offering worthwhile prizes to the win
ners. Topeka is in the heart of the
hog-raising center of the state, so it is
not surprising that the entries are ex-
tremely heavy.
Livestock from Eight States.
Livestock entries come from eight
different states of the middle west.
More than 40 breeders are represent
ed. The quality Of the exhibits in
this departm emit is declared to be
above the average of former years. as
the very best herds showing at the
fairs in the west are here for the big
Topeka affair.
The exile, art and canning club ex-
hibits will hold unusual interest for
the women. Bee and honey exhibits,
dairy exhibits, Sunday school exhibits,
boys and girls garden, pig, poultry,
canning, garment and corn club ex-
hibits, the milk goat departments and
the divisions devoted to pet stock will
attract the attention of all.
Instruments of Peace.
Last year the government exhibited
| instruments of war; this year the gov
eminent building will be filled with
| exhibits of peace-time achievements.
The activities of all the different di-
! ture will be shown and demonstrated
and explained. Uncle Sam intends to
make plain just what he is doing for
| his citizens.
| But there will be a touch OF war
activities also. An exhibit will be sent
from Camp Funston, and will include
tanks, tractors, a section of field artil-
4 lery, big guns, a field kitchen outfit
land several other attra actions. And If
Ipossible-as fair visitors were warned
| before, this is not a promise-a de-
tachment of cavalry will be sent to go
thru drills and manuevers in front of
the grandstand.
Tuesday for Children.
The "kiddies" will have their inning
Tuesday, when a, number of contests
will be held and suitable prizes pre-
scented to the winners by various To-
lpeka business firms. The Industrial
school cadets will also give an exhibit
ton of wall scaling, boxing and tum-
bling in front of the grandstand.
The filter families contest, held
for the first time in the world at the
Free Fair this year. will be a success,
Iaccording to indications. Entries have
been received from many counties all
over the state. The examinations Will
start Monday morning, but the win
liners probably will not be determined
until Friday or Saturday.
