WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE 12, 1912 NO. 49 IS (Canadian Ports Require Adequate Protection fPREMIER M'BRIDE ON NAVAL QUESTION [(Canadians Ready to Bear Their Share of Imperial Burdens fSpeclal to Thns Dally News.)1*- VICTORIA, B, C, June'11.—In Intorvicw on the naval question today Premier McBrlde said: "I have always made the point that the niues- jtlon of naval protection for Camadu |is a national and not a political one, |; that In this country as in the mother land all questions of defense and armament should be withheld from the political arena and should occupy the attention of parliament as u whole nnd not as a divided organization. As a provincial minister no responsibility, of course, attaches to me, and what I say is simply my view as a Canad'-an who is bound up In his country's welfnre. Mr. Borden, at the Inst session of parliament, made a very notable utterance on the quest-on of a Canadian navy, nnd from that we all expect to see very tangible results at an early date, "Thero can ho no doubt as to the urgency of the case. Sir WU-frld Laurier hlmsolf has admitted that by his attitude, but the trouble wns that hla policy was far from equal to the requirements. When In London I was fortunate enough to renew acqualnt- nnce with the first lord of the admiralty und to enjoy his hospitality nt Weymouth, where one of the big squadrons of the fleet was under review by his majesty. I was very much impressed with the deep Inter- Ij est which * I**"-.. boq-if». pm-prnnvnt un ['doubtedly ialtes Tn Canada's under t-ak'ng to provide a navy, Mr. Churchill seems to fully grasp the el tint Ion and there Is no doulvt that w-hon Mr. Borden and his colleagues vls't Eng'-ind -the admiralty will be I only too glad to afford our representatives all the advice they may need, "No doubt the mother country Is well able to take care of her interests, but nevertheless the question arises Uhat cannot' be overlooked: What about Canada? Is she not equally ready to stand by her responshbMltles .nnd to do In Mils regard as much if ' not more than has been undertaken ] by New Zealand and Australia? "The federal estimates show the enormous sums that are about to be expended by the Dominion govem- ■ ment on Atlantic and Pacific ports. " Surely It Is common sense that Canada should Insure the safety of these ports by seeling to it ■that there is naval force ready lo defend such valuable property It is tfrnply an insurance when looked upon from that viewpoint. "But apart from this altogether , Cnnada would fully expect to take her .[part In any Imperial burdens If the 'case should demand It. The doctrine 'proposed by Sir Wilfrid Luurier to the effect that It was possible for England to he at war and Canada nt [peace Is one that has "never boon taken seriously hy the Canadian ,people. I am satisfied' that the great j concensus of ■ ■ opinion in Canada is [strongly condemnatory ot th's theory of Sir Wllfrlcfs, England's wars and /troubles are ours and we will never hesitate to stand up and take our lt<part as loyal BWtlahers toword the 1 maintenance and strengthening of the empire."

NATIONAL STRIKE DOOMED TO FAILURE Only Small Proportion of Men Re' spond—Shipowners Take Unyielding Attitude (By Dally News Leased Wire,) LONDON, June 11—Undeterred by tho failure of previous attempts the government today resumed negotla tions with a view to arranging a settlement of the dock strike. The prospects of success are slender as the shipowners, convinced that a national strike cannot be successfully engl neered have taken un unyielding uttl tude. The number of men outside of London who have responded to the cull for a national strike does not exceed 25,000 but several ports, including Bristol, Swansea, Southampton nnd Manchester are tied up. Much depends upon tho result of the ballots which are being tuken by tho seamen's and other unions but from all appearances the movement is doomed to failure. The strike lenders, nevertheless are hopeful thnt they can so dislocate the country's trade as to compel lho government lo pass legislation for the purpose of coercing tbe shipowners. The cabinet ministers on the other bund are doing their utmost to avoid uddlng to the labors of tbe already overloaded pari lament a 17 machine. The London situation remains unchanged. Serious Rioting. Serious rioting occurred at Ber- mondsey, a parish of London, tonight, when strikers and police came together. Six policemen were Injured nnd the windows of shops nnd houses were broken. The transport federation has Issued an appeal to other trade unions to come to their assistance with funds to carry on the striko aga'nst the capitalists, -their own funds being depleted. At a meeting of the Westham town council tonight Will Tbnrne, Labor member of parliament for the south division, moved a novel ■ resolution designed to prevent convoys proceeding from the docks by destroying all the roads in Wcsthnm lending to the docks. The mayor refused to allow the resolution to he put. GRANT ENTRIES TO SQUATTERS Great Work Accomplished by R. F. Green for Settlers in Dominion Railway Belt (Special to The Dally News.)

EDMONTON, June 11.—Ten super in tendon Ls will be named by the general assembly at the present session to supervise the work In the newer districts. A decision to take this step was reached by the delegates this aft ernoon. Almost a dozen men of the west protested that the number was quite Insufficient for the needs of the great undertakings and urged that there should be a large Increase, Oyer tures were presented .from several presbyteries on the subject and llicso it was intimated that In the Judgment of" the presbyteries from 31 to -In men were required at once, Rev Dr. A, S. Grant, the general superintendent, was dent to the appeals saying that there wus no provision In Uie budget for more .than 10. There was a determination, he said, pin the church that the present low and inadequate (■a-'aries of the ministers must be increased nnd this would be done. If this task was undertaken It was Im possible in his Judgment to set apart more than 10 men for this work of supervision. It is possible that ln view of tin's decision several of the presbyteries will undertake to raise money In their own midst and engage pastors at large to meet the need. Methodists Welcome. A most pleasing event of the day' proceedings was the arrival of three representatives of the Methodist conference of Alberta, bearing the greet Ings of this body, As a result of tbe unumious deq'sion of the church question by the assembly yesterday It ap- peared ns though the visitors entered on a new footing and the welcome extended to them certainly lucked notb ing in lhe way of cordiality. The de legation consisted of Principal RlddoII of Alberta college, Rev. James Hugh- son' minister of llie leading church of lhe city, the Macdougnll Memorial, and W. W. Chown, a prominent citizen of Edmonton. The. assembly rose to receive the visitors nnd es they left the pulpit nil rose again and Joined in singing the hymn "Blest Be The Tie That Binds." The decision arrived ait by the ns' sembly regarding union wafl referred to by the moderator In welcoming the visitors!, and the hope wns expressed by him that -they might soon meet a platform, not as fellow workers in sister churches but as co-workers in the same church. Mr. Hughson In his reply said that although he v unqualified advocate of union it was the whole Presbyterian ehurch that he wanted lo see the Methodist church join and not a part of It. He was therefore, quite willing do wait for five years or 25 years rather than effect a union In which the entire Presbyterian church would not appear. Manitoba College. The first Item taken up at the morning session was an unfinished portion of the business of Manitoba college. Rev. Dr. Balrd spoke of the satisfactory financial position of the institution. This condition was due in part to the fact that two bequests had been made to the college during the year, one of $25,000 and one of $70,000. The receipts from the usual sources had been below the mark, but this wns due to the fact that owing to several, causes, coliiectlons had not been mado, These would be mado at a later date and the institutlnn would be in all respects on an excellent "financial basis. Professor Balrd also reported that there had beon nn Increase In the number of the theological students and that no complaint was made in this respect. Rev. Thomas Boverldge of Deloraine said thnt the college was suffering owing to the fact that it alone, of the colleges of the church, had consented to make a sacrifice for the sake of the home missions 'and had Introduced what Is known as the minister-evangelist course. The result was that In the minds, of many, tho educ- tlonal work of the theological department was regarded as being below that of the other similar Institutions of the church. At the same time, other Institutions were making special arrangements for n large number of special students and were sending out mnny men, less well equipped than the minister exnngelistfl. Mr. Boverldge also took exception to the proposal that thp board of management of the college should he empowered to select a principal without further reference of the matter to the assembly. Rev. Dr. Bryce discussed both points raised by Mr. Beveridge. He stated that the minister evangelist course had resulted in very great benefit to the church and had done no real harm. With reference to the appointment of a principal be snid that Manitoba college was a child of the church nnd that It had at every moment of Its life sought to serve the Interests of tbe church. The board of the college could therefore, This be trusted to select a principal, was agreed to. Commissioners Expenses. A long discussion occurred during! the morning with reference to the payment of the travelling expenses of the eommtsslonera und a series of resolutions was finally adopted. AH presbyteries were Instructed to levy a sum equivalent to 10 cents per member for this purpose, and from the amount so received the cost of the trip will be paid. The commissioners will, however, nay all their own Incidental expenses, only the price of the ticket being provided for by the church. Home Missions. In the afternoon Rev. Dr. A. S. Grant continued his report on home mission work and many recommendations were considered. The main issue was onc relating to the number of dlstriot svp- orlntendenits to be appointed. At the ctqse of the lost assembly there were but three of these men at work, Dr, Grant proposed to Increase the num- .ber to 10. Rev. James Fraser of Foam Lake, Rev. J. Lelshman of Fleming, Rev. S. A. Acheson of Broadview, Rev. James Maclaren of Saltcoats, Rev W. G. Brown of Red Deer, Rev. W. D. Reld of Calgary and Rev. Dr. McQueen lhe moderator, all spoke briefly on the subject, all urging that more than 10 men be named for 'the work of supervision. The idea was that the system should be introduced which has been found of so great value in the Metlio dlst Episcopal church of the United States, where every group of 30 or 40 churches has a supervising pastor. This was declared to be especially essential in western Canada, owing to the nature of the settlement and to the class of men who were engaged In the work of the ehurch. A large proper tlon of these men had not training in the fina,nclal management of the churches and oversight wns therefor absolutely essential. Several over' tures bad 'been sent In to -the assembly on the subject and in these the 'statement had hcon made lhat it was necessary -that 30 or 40 supervis Ing ought to be appointed at onco. .Dr. Grant maintained lhat the budget scheme did not provide for the appointment of more than 10 men. Rev W. D. Reld moved that the number be Increased to 12 but the motion was lost.' The decision was then reached to name 10. The distribution of these new officials of tbe church will be a matter of some difficulty amd will be taken up tomorrow. Loans to Churches, The question of the consolidation of a number of funds created for the pur pose of securing church sites and tho building of churches and manses, wns laken under advisement and it was decided that this should be done. The capital sum in hand will be Increased to $500,000 if possible The amount will be loaned tc- churches without interest repayable In five or ten years. Rev. Dr. C. W. Gordon presented the report of the committee nnmed to take under advisement tho question of the supply of the men for the ministry. Dr. Gordon stated that he would per' sonally favor the creation of a col' lege course in which neither Greek nor Hebrew was Included for the benefit of men who were not prepared to enter on the study of these languages. The exigencies of tbo situation were such, that the colleges could not turn oul men fast enough In the regular courses. In nil the colleges of the church there were at the present time only 140 men studying divinity, while there were 1,000 or 2,000 new fields in process of development. The church was, however, unwilling to go so far us to establish such a course of study Dr. John Neil of Toronto said that the real power which could send young men inlo the m-lnlslry was to be found *n the Christian home. Parents must dedicate their children from birth to lhe highest of callings. In the evening the Rev. Dr. Shearer, presented the report of the committee on social service and evangelism and a number of addresses were made on 'his subject. .-.*!

MURDERER BAFFLES BLOODHOUNDS Kills Eight Sleeping People and Escapes—Bloody Finger Prints Only Clue. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) VILL1SCA, Iowa, J une 1 l.—The murder on Sunday night of the entire fiumlly of Joseph B. Moore and two girl guests, eight persons In all, Is still -baffling the authorities, who have been unable to secure a trace of the murderer and have little or no clue to .his identity. The murderer killed every person in the house and escaped. It is apparent he had a key to the door of the house, because all doors and windows were found locked, while dust on the window sills was undisturbed. A revised list of the victims follows Joseph B. Moore, his wife and their four children, Herman, aged 11; Kath- erlne, 9; Boyd, aged 7, and Paul, years; Lena Stillinger, aged 15; Ina Stlllinger, aged 0. The first Intimation of the crime came when a clerk hi the Implement house; of Mr. Moore went to Moore's home to find out what delayed Moore In reaching his place of business. Finding the house locked, the window shades all down and no one about, he notified the neighbors and with ass ance forced an entrance. The dead, with the exception of ono of the Stlll'nger girls, were found In i heir beds apparently sleeping, and un tl: the wounds on their heads and the Mood on their pillows were discovered ihe searchers could .not believe any- •hlng was wrong in the house. A bloody axe, with hair and pieces of brain clinging to it, obviously the implement used in the wholesale murder, was hit er found In an upstairs room, Bloody finger prints constitute the on'y clue. Bloodhounds arrived here on a lato evening train and were immediately taken to the Moore home. Within ten minutes they found a scent, whicli took them over a route to the edge of the town and tlienco to the banks of the Noraway river. Entering a deep wood along tlie river tho dogs led their fol lowers over several miles of rough thn ber land In the Nodaway bottoms. Be> cause a company of militia bad kept the crowds from going within several hundred feet of the Moore home it was hoped the hounds might bo able lo accomplish much, as the ground had not heen trodden over. Tho hounds followed the seent to the river where tracks were found leading to the water. The dogs could not pick up the scent on the far side of tho stream and search was abandoned for the time being.

JUNE 1- Published at Nelson Every Morning Except Sunday, by The News Publishing Company Limited. W. G. FOSTER, Editor and Manager. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 12 GOVERNMENT LOANS TO AGRICULTURISTS In the nenr future the provincial government it is understood will appoint a commission to Inquire into conditions appertaining to the agr-l- cullural Industry with a view to the Imprvcment thereof. Thnt this is a step In ibe right direction there are fe-w, if nny, who will attempt to gainsay. As was pointed out in the most interesting letter of Mr. Alex Lucas, M.P.P., published In yesterday's Issue of Tbe Dally News, there Is being imported Into British Columbia each year agricultural products to the extent of $15,000,000, whloh might just ns well be produced here. Not only Uilfl but Instead of being an- importer of agricultural products "British Columbia should be an exporter. The province is capable of producing foodstuffs enough to feed the whole of CanadA and then have much to export. All Hint is wanted Is proper •effort In order to secure this result. The soil and tho climate are here. Only the effort of man is lacking. The development of British Columbia, however, presents problems Unit are unknown in the prairie provinces, but which can be likened to those which confronted the pioneers of eastern Canada. Boundless energy nnd comparatively large means are necessary to bring tbe land under cultivation. Much has already been accomplished in this dlrccUon, but even ihls must be recognized as only furnishing evidence of what con be done. Tbe question which presents itself nt the present time is bow lhe development of lho agricultural Industry can be encouraged along sane nnd legitimate linos. To inquire Into this will be the duty of the commission which the government will shortly appoint. But in the meantime lt might not be out of place to suggest that careful cons id emtio n should be given to the question by every resident of British Columbih, for, when all is said and done, agriculture must and will contribute largely to the future prosperity and greatness of tills province. There ure two features of tlie situation which deserve] special consideration. One is the comparatively great cost of clearing nnd the other Is the latter tendency of llie youth of the land toward city life. Tiie clearing of the province's agricultural lands must be encouraged anil expedited ln every possible way and some Inducement must bo offered to young men and women to take up farm or ranch life. The larger opportunities of moderate returns and tbe difficulties which nt present present themselves to men with -little capital are dally driving young people away from agriculture in British Columbia as elsewhere. The suggestion has been made that tbo government should take up the quest Ion of encouraging the development of the agricultural lands of the province and Inducing young people to take up the cultivation of the soil through tbe medium of some system of government loansi such as have worked so satisfactorily ln Europe, Australia, New Zealand and oven In Old Ireland. This Is a matter which should he given full measure of thought and consideration by every well- wisher of British Columbia between now and the time of the sittings of the commission shortly to be appoint ed. The best .views of the people of British Columbia should be presented lo the members of Ibe commission on this matter so that the most practicable solution of the problem which now confront the agricultural Industry of the province and stand in the way of its development may be secured.

JAW, Sask., Juno 11—Tho last dny of the Saskatchewan "Methodist conference was a stormy one. Tbe laymen's association report on being submitted was received. Arising out of the resolution in-this report that ministerial salaries bo raised to avoid necessity of them engaging in speculation (real esltite) a hot discussion took place. Previously In the preliminary meeting of the laymen, a Saskatoon delegate, A. J. Sparling, had snid Hint the question of ministers de-tiling in real estate had come to a crucial stage. Ministers In bis district he said had within llie last seven years become very much enthused with the rent eslate business. One minister bud tho reputation of being oftener in the real esiato offices than In the homes of his members. On anotlier pcfcaslon it bad been said the pastor would make a flno real estate man. The substance of the delegate's speech wus printed In the local press and the discussion mi the laymen's resolution centered about the press report. Willi great wrath the ministerial members of the conference said that the characters of Hev. M. M. Bennett and his successor Rev. W, W. Abbott, had been smirched and demanded thnt tho Saskatoon delegate retrnct or prove bis words. Nothing daunted A. J.

However, tlio mutter did not rest there. Rev. W. S. Reid poined out lhal the onus uf the charge of dabbling in real estate lo tlio detriment of ministerial duties bad merely been moved from Mr. Abbott to Mr. Bennett. Rising to his feet Rev. M. M. Bennett gave a very qualified denial of the charge which had been construed out of A. J, Sparling's statement. "If," he said, "you mean by dabbling In real eslate the buying of real estate then 1 have bought real estate nnd still hold It and I ,thank God I have tt.

(By pally New" Leased "Wire.) EDMONTON, June 11,—The question of the erection of a Presbyterian office building In Toronto has been again before the gcen'rul assembly here. A site was recently acquired by the board of publication* and the suggestion wus made by that board that the trustees * of the (finance committee should take it over in the name of the church at large and erect a large building. The matter was, however, left In abeyance and tlie land and building already acquired will be used as it Is as a home for the publications, of which there are now about a dozen ,and which are In an excellent condition. The determination is expressed by lhe commissioners to work out some plan whereby all tbe traveling expenses of the delegates will be .paid. At th 'present time the most poorly paid of the ministers are shut out from an attendance on the meetings of the court It Is argued that theso are the men who would he most benefitted by spending two weeks in meeting their associates ln tho work of the denomination. The committee In charge of tbe matter lias made one report and will make another. Instructions were given to it lo lake the iiuestion under consideration annl arrange for the full payment. It Is believed that the whole amount needed will be Included finally m the budget and tho total expenses of all the commissioners will be paid out of the general fund, Many of tbe most important com* mlllees of the church have still tomakt their reports, Among tho.se who bavn submitted statements are the committees on Sunday schools, young people's societies ami French evangelization. Dr. Kelly of Montreal made a vigorous speech with reference to work In tin province of Quebec, where the Polnl Aux Trembles school nnd other simitar Institutions are maintained by tin Presbyterian ehurch. At the conclu slon of tbo address by Dr. Kelly. In which he said, among other things, that all true Canadians -Should give thanks to God for the Gouin government im Quebec. Principal Brandt was called on, Before he could reach Uie platform Rev. Dr. C. W. Gordon said thai iL appeared lo him that some actloi should be taken with reference to tin subject matter of the address of Dr Kelly. The latter had stated that schools similar to Unit at Point Aux Trembles we're the key to the sllua- in in Quebec and that scholarships for lhe education of a French boy could be established for ?Ei0. Dr. Gordon stated that a largo number of these scholarships ought to be created and said that he would be i*espon*-ible for 10 in Winnipeg. Rev. 1*. M. Maedonald of Toronto said that Toronto could not be behind Winnipeg and undertook to be re sponsible^;* 10 in that city. The re spnnino-.from nil parly of.-the church wns Immediate and a. large sum was obtained. The assembly has rarely heard a bettor address from a foreign missionary than one given here by the Rev. Dr. Wilkle of the Kwallor mission. Dr. Wilkle occupied a peculiar mission with reference to tbe Presbyterian church. Ho' was formerly at Indorn and while he was there a dlsturbanc arose whicli Involved the whole mis slon in central India, whore there an mnny representatives of tho church Tlio nature of the trouble was neve fully understood In Canada by mem liers of tlie church but the result was tbe withdrawal of Dr, Wilkle from lb field. With the support of many of lhe most prominent members o£ th< Presbyterian church in Canada he established a new independent mission, which has been a great success. Tbe theory of Dr. Wilkle is that the sue' cess of the church in foreign lands depends absolutely on the work of the native Christians. The white mission ary from Canada or Britain should re tire into tbo background at the earliest possible moment and leave the nativ lo his own Judgment. Dr. Wilkle ulso takes the ground that it is folly to endeavor to engraft occidental Ideas on the oriental mind and that the same Is true of customs. He -consequently does not believe In tho erection of church buildings In India, this being contrary to the custom of the country. The meetings of the believers are* held In the (Mien air en a cloth spread on the ground. The word congregation is nut used nnd no congregations are formed. Instead, when converts aro made they nre formed inlo a brotherhood, which is again the custom of| the country. A change was made by the assembly in the matter of lhe supervision of the work among lhe yming people and chit dren. There have been two separate committees in charge of Mils work. For a number of years it has been suggested that they ought to be amalgamated and lliis will now be done. The matter was discussed briefly by the assembly, but ihe subject had been threshed out in former years and nothing remained to ho done but to accept the report.

Hickes Notas Great Progress at Crawford Bay, Kootenay Bay and Gray Creek Points visited last week by Raymond T. Hickes, malinger of tlie Kootenay Km i [growers' union were Crawford Bay, Gray Creek and Kootenay May. "I was very surprised to see the large amount of land available for fruit ■■rowing in these places. This was the first time 1 bad visited either place nd I was most pleased with the visit," aid Mr. Hicks. "AI Crawford Bay Fcittlement Is perhaps more rapid than In nny other place I hnve yet seen and ihe place Is very lively. Al a, Farmers' Institute meeting which l addressed pn behalf of Hie fruitgrowers* union ! md the largest audience I have hnd n my rounds. 1 should say there were fully (10 present and keen interest wns shown in lhe union. As u result of the meeting was the disposal nf some 20 bnres, the best wn-ek's work I have done, "The ranchers are \>-ry progressive nnd it was a pleasure to travel Ihrouirh ihls district. John Olson has by far the best kept trees I liave avt-n. 1 was told ho had pet names for each of his trees and I can quite imagine it for they show that no labor is too heavy, no time too long to be given them; the crop of apples on them in just enor- ius and every tree is the same. 'The orchard is truly a wonderful sight as is the neighboring orchnrd of Jack Houghton whoso trees are the tdest In the Hay. The cherry trees hern are laden with fruit on every branch. In J. P. Locke's orchnrd which is younger than tiie others the trees urn in excellent shape; He has paid very great care to them and they nre a decided crenlit to tbe community.

WINNIPfG VANCOUVER "Tho orchard of the Inglls brothers is a remarkable sight for one used to small Kootenny orchards, 20 acres in ono block and ns flat as any orchard could be. This orchard has been plowed and harrowed until the soil could be no finer. It is a very young orchard but I doubt if any orchard in the Kootenay lias been given greater cars. The crop of fruit ou the Mill orchard oil Burden & Wulson is enormous. "The Farmers' institute Is most progressive under tbo leadership of P. J. Locke wilh W. W. -Mooney as Rs energetic secretary. The community has cause to be proud of Us Institute. The settlement is progressing so rapidly thai tbe teams are kept going hard the whole time and Ihey are in eager demand. There is an ah*, of progress everywhere. At Gray Creek Sir John Eardley Wilmot Is pulling hi very fine work clearing up his Innd. Some trees in the front of his ranch show a. wonderful growth. The situation of tbe ranch Is idoal and thu views incomparable. G. Rlckson has an excellent ranch and It Is kept in fine order. The strawberries on all the ranches ut Gray creek look well for the season. Much Land at Kootenay Bay "At Kootenay Bay R. P. Lang-ford's Ireos are looking well; I was surprised lo sec; the amount of land availably for fruit growing here, bavin*; been given to understand that the acreage was very small. 'There Is no doubt about the size of the fish here for while talking to Mr. Langford I saw Mrs. Langford who was mil fishing with Mrs. James Johnston of Ottawa, bring to shore a plendid salmon which she herself had caught and gaffed. It weighed just over the 10 pound murk. The commencement of strawberry season makes it necessary for me to be In Nelson and I regret I cannot complete my tour of the Kootenay but 1 hope to run up to Kaslo and Riondel for a day or so soon and I have yet to go to the Slocan valley and Bonn- ington," concluded Mr. Hickes, who snid lhat the first whole crate of r Ira wherries to he handled by lhe union Ihls season camo In on Friday night from D.

CONSPIRING TO STEAL VICTORY Colonel Roosevelt Writes on Political Situation—Taft Lost on Appeal to People. illy Dally News Leased Wire.} NEW YORK, Juno 11.-—In an article 'enlitlrd "A Naked Issue of Right'nnd Crawford Bay Some good properties -it lowest prices, on easy terms, in this favored district. 171 ACftlilS. about half good fruit kind; ?ir, per acre.. 316 ACRES splendid land; light ndcnring; $*tS per acre. 20 ACRES, making of a fine properly; $05 per acre. 52 ACRES, good ■ploiifcfhable land; $66 per acre, 60 ACRES, arable rich loam; on government road close to school, store and boot landing; $80 per acre. 28 ACRES, about G acres cultivated; orchard of over 200 4-year-old fruit trees; small fruits, house, flowing water; on government road.

Wrong," published In this week's Issue of the Outlook, Colonel Roosevelt says that contain iinterescs wn.ch are trying to defeat him at Chicago dominate President Taft. The president's backers, lie says, nre realizing that they have lost In the appeal to the people nnd are now "deliberately eon- sp.rltvg to steal lhe victory from the people." The pros'dent, he says, docs not put li s trust m the people, but in a body of ;>U men, chosen four years ago, who have been repudiated by Hie republican parly at the polls. "During Hie last six weeks," Colonel Roosevelt says, "Mr. Taft's campaign has been carried on, on Ills behalf, hy Hiose behind him—I do not say merely those under hlm, for 1 think some of tbe interests to which 1 allude are really over hlm and not under him— in such fashion as to make Die contest a far simpler one. The talk of the Taft managers, and even of Mr. Taft himself, Lhe utterances of the great dailies, especially the great mel- lopolitan dallies, which are controlled or influenced by Wad street, and tbe action threatened by many members of the national committee nil combine to show that tbe backers of Mr. Talt realize lhat they have lost In the appeal to the people and ure now deliberately conspiring lo steal the victory from tho people. "Properly speaking, the national committee's only function ls honestly lo judge what delegates havo prima facie tbe right to a seat and lo sug- j gest the name of a temporary chair-J man who shall call the convention lo order. Practically, the attempt fs being made hy the Taft managers to use lhe present national committee for lhe purpose of unseating honestly elected delegates and of seating enough delegates especially from lhe states where there is no real republican parly to secure the nomination for Mr. Taft." Of the 3!) members of the national com mil ice who followed the lead of lhe Taft managers in the vole on publicity at the first meeting In Chicago, says Mr. Roosevelt, IB have been defeated'and repudiated in their stales, four represent territories and Insular possessions having no vote, and 10 are from southern states that liave given no electoral vote for the republican party. These 2!), he says, constituting more limn a majority of the committee, will be without political standing after Ihls week and have no vote behind them. "Yet in n recent" speech In New Jersey," he said, "Mr. Taft stated that he believed tliat ho would he nominated hecituse he believed thnt the national committee would support him. Ap- pnrently Mr. Taft was not aware of lhe full s'gn'flcnnce of his words. He is h'mself being used by men who know thoroughly what they want and what they mean, who hnd doubtless told Mr. Tuft Hint lho national committee would be for hlm, hut with no idea that he would repent the statement in public. The real meaning of such a statement Is Hint an appeal from the people lies to this body of 50 men chosen not by Hie pn-ople but by the politicians four years ago." stale.
