He seems to have com pletely (disappeared from the public view. Some of Taft's friends forecast a Roosevelt boom flor 1912, but it does not worry Taft, because he knows his time will be out about ihen. The promptness with which Ted dy denied that fake story about his eating a lion alive is conclusive proof that be never gets very far from the telegraph office. "Tackling" in foot ball mj?y be abolished, it is said, if this is done, it may rob the spectators of the delicious sight of an occasional brok en arm, leg or a neck. -9 Judge Gaynor, who has been just elected mayor of G/reater New York, fa being groomed ?s the next Demo cratic candidate for President. He would make a strong one. You can't head off Dr. Cook from the Hall of Fame. He is entitled to a place in it as the first man who reached the North Pole or as a writer of high grade fiction. In the face of the fierce contro versy now going on among the Chris tian Scientists as to who is who, we don't blame the people"of Jamaica for cutting cable communication with the' outside world. Out in Omaha some one presented Senator Aldrich a pair of leather breeches a few days ago. Thoy will come In handy for him as the lead er of tho "holest band of buc /caneere that ever got together." The awful mine horror at Cherry, ML, is only one of a long list of auch tragedies, which seems to have been caused by the carelessness of uome one. In this enlightened age ouch.accidents should be made im possible. An enthusiastic exchange says this has been a bad year for the bosses. We ere glad to hear it, but really there is no excuse for political boss es. Thoj exist simply because good citizens will not go to the polls and vote on election day! They are watching Harri man's grave for fear that some one will steal his body. Guarded while in life from the assassin and watched after being put in the grave, is too high a price to pay for what even Harriman accumulated. Capt. W. E. Gonzales' explanation of that Taft luncheon in Columbia has changed the opinion of a good many folk down this way. They view it now in a diffeient lignt alto gether, and see ho breach -jf gwod manners in the way it was gotten up. Tho Su^ar Trust must have slip ped a cog some how, or it would never havo been caught in its ras cality. Put it need not fear. The money it has put up to finance Re publican politics will cause the white wash brush to be used freely in its behalf. The report is that either Ballinger or Pinchot must get out of the In terior Department. The fact that Ballinger was a Lumber Trust law yer before Taft gave him a cabinet position, would indicate thai Pin chot had better be looking out for another job. An Italian medium mado a table dance in New York recently. We would have more faith In those spir its if they would do more serviceable things, like tho family washing, mowing the lawn or making up the fires on cold mornings. Then they would be worth cultivating. It is said that Mrs. Eddy has made a financial settlement with her sons after a long wrangle. Theoretically, money is an illusion with that good lady, and we are surprised at her paying out the real, hard cash. The old lady should have used some hot air on those boys of hers and made them "believe" that they had been "settled" with without paying them any cash. Answering a statement made by Speaker Cnnnon that Herman Ridder and a duligation of publishers of fered to aid him to win tho presi-j dency if ho would help take the tariff off print paper, Ridder says: j "Either Ridder is a fool of Cannon Is a liar and on this particular oc caslon .Ridder Is not a fool." That' puts it up to old man Cannon to prove that he is not a liar. i When itddy C\ v-t. torching ..^ e,. The Roosevelt partisans are on Brer Taft's trail, au i troai uj ?. un til the next National Republican Convention they will jive the b:g fat occupant of the White House jo exceedingly lively time. It is :ilmo-;t a certainty that they will attv nnu to make Teddy the next Republican nominee. Sucn is the talk 1.1 and about Washington, and so conserva tive and orthodox a Republican paper as The New York Tribune has been pr'atini, reports of a movem??i?l under way to call him !>d?*k in 1912 to resume the control of our des tinies. According to these reports, the plan is that Mr. Roosevelt is To re turn to this country, after a year or more in Europe and the Orient? during which time, we may be sure, the department of publicity will not be idle?and to proceed through a region ablaze with enthusiasm for him to the "enemy's country," where Mr. Taft is held in some favor. The Roosevelt boomers say that such a j progress will be a grand triumph and ! that nothing can resist him as he comes into the East, and it will re main only for Taft to welcome his patron and predecessor on the steps of tho White House and deliver up to him the keps o tfhe mansion and restore to the hands whence he re ceived it, his commission as viceroy over the American people. The Charleston Evening Post says "there is no reason to doubt- that if Mr. Roosevelt is going to attempt to put Mr. Taft out and to resume the reins of government, after one term of his vicar in office, he will make a mighty interesting demon stration. Tbe country is pretty apt to know it when Mr. Roosevelt gets into action. But that he will bo able to do anything of the sort is a question of considerable uncer tainty. He could split the Repub lican party in the attempt, no doubt, and on that count we wish he would try iL" The Post need not worry. Roosevelt is going to try it and if there is to be any backing out Taft will be the one to do it. Roosevelt had Taft nominated because he knew he would be an easy man to die place. In fact, it would not sur prise us if Taft did not announce in a year or two that he would not be a candidate for re-election. . The Post goes on to say "that there are large and powerful ele ments of discontent with the method of Mr. Taft's administration can not be denied, and that these are likely to grow in force rather than to weaken during the next year or two is highly probable. Mr. Tait is personally very popular, but poli tically he has thus far failed to satis fy the hopes of the country at large. The contrast between his orderly methods and the turbulence of his predecessor is very great and per haps it is too severe a strain upon the norves of the people, highly wrought by the strain of the seven years of Roosevelt. .Moreover the country is impressed with the idea that Mr. Taft's dispositions are dis tinctly reactionary, and many who disapprove Mr. Roosevelt's methods hold that his policies and purposes were worthy and should be interpre ted to effect, and that Mr. Taft is not going to do this." ? So when Teddy comes marchin? onme there will be trouble and plen ty of it for the genial, pleasant gentleman who now occupies the White House unless he gets out of the way. Teddy will find material enough upon which to base his ef fort to unhorse the man whom he placed in the saddle, and that gen tleman may as well be picking out a soft place on which to fall. We have believed ever since Taft's nomi nation that he was only a stool pig son for Teddy, and would not oppose Roosevelt'B ambition to be again elected President. In fact, we would aot be surprised if there was no. such a compact entered into between them as the basis upon which Taft ?ras m?de President by Roosevelt. We believe that before the next cam paign opens in dead earnest th.it Taft will find some convenient ex cuse to get out of the running and leave the field clear so far as he Is concerned to the man who forced his nomination on the Republican party. We believe that this is the sole reason that made Roosevelt lake such an interest in Taft, wno was willing apparently to accept the presidency on any terms. It will bo remembered that Roosevelt used Taft as a jumping jack during the campaign. MiLst Show His Colors. President Taft is betwixt the devil and the deep blue sea. He is an ardent friend of the trusts and never loses an opportunity to defend them. In fact his cabinet 's made up large ly of trust lawyers. But trouble is brewing for him and his trust law yer cabinet. There is plainly a dis position on the part of certain ice publican leaders and newspapers to force tho Taft administration to deal not only with the Uallinger land cases but also the sugar trust scan dals as political issues. Mr. Taft is to be compelled to show his colon;, as it were, and to let it be known whether or not he will shield the "malefactors of great wealth, ' whether or not he is a friend of the "predatory interests." "It is. Indeed," says the Colum bia Record, "squarely up to the President to deal with the sugar scandals. Yet the corruption now exposed was rife during the Roose velt administration; according to the exposures now made, the inves llgatlons were In progress during Mr. i Roosevelt's incumbency of office and ] persons very close to Mr. Roosevelt1 ?no others than Cortelyou and Loeb '< ?were cognizant of the whole mat- I ter, even If Mr. Roosevelt were not. < The inspectors had reported, during that time, that by the use of false scales in the custom houses the gov ernment was being defrauded in the collection of its duties on the im portations of the American Sugar Refining Company. It was kept quiet then and has only now come to light. On the part of the "sugar i win oe made to lay all the guilt upon the late Henry 0. Havemeyer. The de.i i can not be prosecuted. On the oth ,b ... at ' .fhcial .is quoted as saying there will be noth g le.t < : tri si when the program .' '.he '.ministration is carried out. "To th se cf v.s who have no political interest in the success or failure of Taft or anti-Taft, Roose velt or anti-Roosevelt factions If will be interesting to watch proceedings. Under the Roosevelt regime no trust magnates were prosecuted on the criminal side of the court and or. the civil sl'e the celebrated "im munity bath" was orginatei. There was a great deal of rhetoric against malefactors of great wealth, but no arrests. It is now intimated very strongly that whenever the present administration goes after a trust, the criminal statutes will be invok ed. We shall very soon see, there fore, whether President Ta't's ad ministration is dominated by the predatory interests or whether it is independent as well as sincere The anti-Taft forces within his own pir ty are determined to compel an answer to these questions."

Too Weak to Sit Up. Mrs, Ruth B. Brent, Holmes, Pope Co., Ills., writes: "I was in poor health three years ago. I kept getting worse, and I finally was so weak that I could not sit up all day. My feet and hands were always cold. I had no appetite. "I consulted one of the best doctors, who said l could not be cured. I was nervous, my heart would flutter, and I had a pain in my left side and also had ebron'" constipation. Has Good Health Now. Mrs. Allice Adams, Fairchance, Pa^ writes: "I was sick with catarrh of tho bowels and doctored for four years without receiving any benefit.

"Everybody compliments me on look inc so much better than I used to. And now I have a girl baby six. months otd, as fat as she can be."
