BRYAN SCORES TAFT ON
TEDDY'S INDORSEMENT
NEBRASKAN COMMENTS WITH WITHERING
SARCASM ON LETTER FROM ROOSEVELT
PITILESSLY AND MINUTELY, DOES COLONEL ANALYZE SPEECHES
AND RECORD OF REPUBLICAN NOMINEE, WHICH HE ASSERTS
HAjVE NOT THROWN ANY LIGHT ON POLITICAL SITUATION
HARD RAP IS REFERENCE TO TAFT'S POSITION ON LABOR. '
BALTIMORE, September 11. "A
few plain, simple sentences from Mr.
Taft would be worth more than the
eulogy the president pronounces. The
president's endorsement is of no value
unless the president will agree to stay
in Washington and see that Mr. Tnft
makes good."
In these words, Wm. ,F. Bryan sum
med up his opinion of tho letter of
President Roosevelt commendatory of
Mr. Taft, soon after his arrival in this
city.
"It was expected, of course, said Mr.
Ilryan, "that President Roosevelt would
support Mr. Taft. He could hardly
do less in view of the fact that he se
lected him as the administration enndi
date and supported him with all. the ;n
llueiicc the administration could bring.
The president's letter, however, may be
objected to as irrelevant, immaterial
and not best evidence. If Mr. Taft
were dead it would be interesting to
know from Mr. Roosevelt what ho knew
of Mr. Taft 'a opinions and work, but
as Mr. Taft is alive and able to speak
for himself, it is hardly necessary for
Mr. Roosevelt to tell us what Mr. Taft
will do.
"Mr. Taft is running upon a platform
which was s-o unsatisfactory that he
had to amend it in several particulars,
and yet, even as amended, it gives the
public no definite ideas as to what Mr.
Taft stands for. Mr. Taft, alo, has
bced making some speeches and prom
ises to make some more. The ones ho
has already made have not thrown any
light upon thi! political situation, but
it is hoped that he will yet conclude
to define his position with sufficient
clearness to enable the public to know
what ho stands for. It is not .suffiejent
for .(lift presidont to say that Mr. Taft
is a friend of labor. That is a subject
upon which the laboring man is entitled
to his opinion, and Mr. Taft's friend
ship is to be determined, not by the
president's endorsement, but by the
measures which Mr. Taft advocates.
"Mr. Taft believes that a labor or
ganization should come under the op
eiation of the anti-trust law, thus deal
ing with tho men who belong -to labor
organizations as if they wore mcrchan
dise for tho anti-trust laws deal with
the monopoly of tho products of labor.
"Mr. Taft is opposed to trial by
jury in eases of indirect contempt, thus
denying to the laboring man the safe
guard which is guaranteed to every man
CHOLERA KILLS
ST. PETKRSHURG, September 14.
It is announced officially that from noon
of September 12 until noon today, there
were 250 cases of cholera and sixty-four
deaths in this city. The mortality
since tho beginning of tho epidemic is
over 2. per cent.
to the El Paso smelter.
, The showing is very promising con
sidering the limited amount of develop
ment work done, nnd there is no reason
to doubt that tho vein carries the same
high values at greater depth and also
along the striko of tho lode.
We understand that negotiations are
jieuding for the sale of tho property

BY SUPREffiE COURT
OVERRULING OF HIS DEMURRER
REGARDED AS DISTINCT VIC
TORY FOP. MOSES ALEXANDER,

BOISE, Idaho, September 14.-r-By a
unanimous decision, tho Idaho supreme
court overruled tho demurrer of former
Scn.tor Dubois in the contest to deter
mine which of tho two tickets nominated
at the Wallace convention was entitled
to tho democratic name. As a result
of this ruling, the court will go into
tho merits of the case. Tho ruling is
regarded as a distinct victory by tho

tried in a criminal court. Mr. Taft does
not agree with the laboring man in
regard to tho use of injunction in labor
disputes.
"Mr. Taft's position on tho trust
question is not changed by the presi
dent's endorsement. The -president 1'
self has' not succeeded in putting any
trust magnates in tho penitentiary, and
only a few of tho trusts have 'been dis
turbed. If Mr. Taft is no more" success,
ful than the president in his attacks
on the trusts, ho will not satisfy the ex
pectations of tho public.
"On tho tariff question, Mr. Tnft
failed to express himself with clear
ness. The republican platform does
not use the word 'reduction.' It only
promises revision, and Mr. Taft con
strued this to mean that some schedules
will ,bo lowered nnd some raised, but
there is no intimation that tho average
will be lower or higher than it is now.
"We ought to have a definite state
ment as to what the public is to expect
from Mr. Taft. No such definite state
ment appears in tho platform, and no
definite conclusion can bo drawn from
Mr. Taft's speeches, and it does not
answer the purpose for the president to
say that ho feels sure that Mr. Tifft
will do what is right or what is just,
for there is a wide difference of opinion
as to what is right and as to what is
just."
Mr. Ilryan arrived in Baltimore short
ly before 8 o'eloc this morning. They
were met by a local reception commit
tee and were driven in an automobile
to the Hotel llelvedere. There were
no set speeches, the meeting between
them being of an informal character.
During tho forenoon, Mr. Ilryan re
ceived a large number of visitors at
the hotel. At 11T30 hb left for Annapo
lis, where h'e 'spoke this afternoon, re
turning to Baltimore in time for the
meeting in the "Fifth regiment armory
this evening. He. will leave for Phil
adelphia at 8 a. in. tomorrow.
Mr. Ilryan was asked this morning
in regard to a printed rumor that if
elected he would appoint Admiral
Schley as secretary of the navy.
"No one has"askcd me about tho mat
tor, and 1 have not talked with any one
about it," he said. "Tho story, there
fore, is absolutely imaginnry. Whilo
I am an admirer of Admiral Schley and
feel that he was unfairly dealt with, 1
have no thought of picking out cabinet
officers before my election."

DEMOCRACY MAKES
OCK
PORTLAND, MAINE, SEPTEMBER 14. ALTHOUGH THE REPUBLICANS CAME OFF VICTORIOUS IN
THE STATE ELECTION TODAY, BERT M. FERNALD OF POLAND BEING CH03EN GOVERNOR OVER OBE
DIAH GARDNER OF ROCKLAND, THE DEMOCRATS HAD THE SATISFACTION OF SEEING THE NORMAL
ivEPUBLICAN PLURALITY OUT TO, LESS THAN 10,000 VOTES FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A PRESDDENTIAL
YEAR FOR MORE THAN TWENTY"-FIVE YEARS. x
ALL FOUR CANDIDATES FOR CONGRESS, REPUBLICANS, WERE ELECTED, AND FOR STATE AUD
ITOR, CHARLES P. HATCH OF AUGUSTA, REPUBLICAN, DEFEATED HIS OPPONENT.
THE RETURNS FOR GOVERNOR FROM 460 OUT OF 519 CITIES, TOWNS AND PLANTATIONS GIVE
FERNALD, REPUBLICAN, 71,711; GARDNER, DEMOCRATIC, 64,628. THE SAME PLACES IN 1904 GAVE
COBB, REPUBLICAN, 74,419, AND DAVIS, DEMOCRAT, 49,141.
THIS SHOWS A REPUBLICAN LOSS OF 4 PER CENT AND A DEMOCRATIC GAIN OF 32 PER CENT.
ON THIS BASIS, THE REPUBLICAN PLURALITY, IT WAS ESTIMATED WOULD BE ABOUT 8,000.
THE RESULT SHOWED, NOT ONLY THE WARMTH OF THE CONTEST, BUT THE POPULARITY OF
GARDNER, WHOSE FAME AS HEAD OF THE STATE GRANGE, AND PATRONS OF INDUSTRY, PROVED A
GREAT VOTE GAINER.
NEARLY 140,000 VOTERS WENT TO THE POLLS, A NUMBER WHICH IS WITHIN A FEW THOUSAND
OF THE RECORD FOR THE STATE. THE DEMOCRATS GAINED, OVER FOUR YEARS AGO, IN NEARLY
EVERY COUNTY AND CITY, ALTHOUGH SOME MUNICIPALITIES WHICH WENT DEMOCRATIC TWO
YEARS AGO RETURNED TO THE REPUBLICAN FOLD TODAY.
THE NEXT LEGISLATURE WILL UNDOUBTEDLY BE REPUBLICAN.
THE DEMOCRATIC VOTE HAS INCREASED MORE THAN 13,000 OVER 1904, WHILE THE REPUB
LICAN VOTE FELL OFF ABOUT 2500. THE TWO PARTIES SPLIT EVEN IN TWENTY CITIES, EACH CAP
TURING TEN. THE VOTING WAS PARTICULARLY HEAVY IN THE RURAL DISTRICTS, WHERE THE
DEMOCRATS MADE GREAT GAINS.

ING TO STAND ON HIS RECORD AND WHAT HE HAS SAID.
CINCINNATI, September 14.- As.
scrting that his official record, his
speech of acceptance and subsequent
utterances aro ample indications of his
own political position, William II. Taft
today replied to Mr. Bryan's comment
on the Roosevelt letter.
"In my notification speech and in oth
er speeches I have made since, I havo
attompted to make clear my position
on all of the issues of the campaign.
If Mr. Bryan has been unable to un
derstand them, I cannot make them
clearer. I stand upon my record in the
past and on what I have said. Mr. Bryk
an said that I devote a little time to
his own record, from which he seems
to be struggling to separate himself
with all the adroitnes acquired in a
twelve years' hunt for nn issue on
which he can be elected president. The
readiness with wliich Mr. Bryan, in
successive presidential campaigns, pass
es from ono paramount issue to another
shows that tho chief consideration which
affected, his selection of an issue has
been its plausibility in attracting votes.
Ho presents the remarkable spectacle
of one who has been seeking the presi
dency for twelve years without suc
cess, without official responsibility, and
without opportunity to test the various
propositions which he has advocated
for reforms and yet of having events
demonstrated what a colossal failure he
would havo mado in each instance had
ho been permitted to carry his proposals
into the policies of the country.
"He docs not say whether he is still
in favor of the free coinage nf silver.

The city schools opened yesterday
with nn enrollment somewhat in excess
of 800.
Excepting in a few cases, the rooms
are greatly overcrowded, and the boird

This is a most attractive school struc
ture though a little difficult of access,
but the number of children to be ac

the buildings up to their full capacity.
Many census children of compulsory

"He now says he favors tho more

1890 he expressed the view that the
railroads could not be regulated'becaufce
tho railroads would own the regulators
appointed by law, and therefore he was
in favor of government ownership. Wo

Instead, by describing his platform not

Hundreds of people, crowding tho
grand stand at the baseball park Suii
day night, saw what will in all proba
bility be the last public dance of the
Apache. Indians in this vicinity.
To those who had already seen the
dance, the ceremonies presented no spe
cial interest, but to those who witness
ed it for the first time, it was a revela
tion in the quaint, weird customs of
tho aborigines.
Incidentally, the Indians made a rec

painted those other dances when there
was no grand stand and no white man
near, naught but the frowning hills, and
the red man was indeed a king of the
wilderness, instead of a cigarette-smoking
beggar.
Little by little the chanting became
more animated and the rythmic beat of
the tom-tom grew faster as the devils',
brandishing their painted war clubs, cir
cled the fire and feigned to threaten
those about them, until at last the In
dian .spirit was roused and a "comely
young squaw, silently and unostenta
tiously, took her place between two of
the "devils," to bo followed by three
others almost instantly, and together
the line bobbed up and down and around
the fire. An old chief, so crippled and
I aged that he must lean upon a staff
in walking, forgot his years and his
stick and taking a position ahead of
the line, danced before it with all tho
enthusiasm of his youth, until nature
compelled him to take a rest.
Other figures were gone through with
much solemnity, after which the merry
making was begun in earnest, the
squaws seizing upon tho bucks with
whom they chose to dance, and the fun
was on in earnest when one of them
caught young Ncy Miles and led him,
willing, into the backward and forward
jogging Indian dance. This was the
signal to other squaws, and Will Kceg
an, Jack Fuller, Dick Watts, Jim Daw
kins and other spectators yerc likewise
seized and dragged into the dance, to
the great delight of the cheering spec
tators. It was over at 10:30, but after the -
crowd was gone the fire was- piled high
with fresh fuel and the Indians began
again, dancing through the night to
show tho Great Spirit how thankful
they arc for the copious rains he has
sent them this year.
It is commonly believed that this will
be the last Indian dance, as the red
men are growing steadily more retiring
and averse to performing their reli
gious rites before white spectators.
