The Republican Leaders io Ohio Are
Greatly Worried About
FORAKER'S OUTBURSTS
On the New Nationalism that lias
Been lYomulg?t?d by Teddy
Roosevelt Ha* Created Oonsternatiou
Among the Republicans of
tl?o Buckeye State.
fThe bitter attack on Koosoveit
made by Former Senator Foraker in
Ohio on Saturday bus created consternation
among the Republicans
of the Buckeye state. Senator Foraker
declared that it 1h no wonder
that William J. Bryan holda up his
hands in horror at the Roosvelt doctrine,
for never In his radical
moments, did Bryan go so far
as to advorato such a thing as
the "new nationalism." He declared
that it was not nationalism, new
or old, but imperialism, pure and
simple. The senator went further
into detail, and did not mince words
in denouncing the overweening ambition
of the ex-president, who would
like the opportunity to run the
whole country, in the executive, legislative
and Judicial departments.
Ohioans declare that the net result
of Foraker's attack on Roose?"?i*
iif? to lnKf? Hardimr. the lie
publican candidate for governor, a
large number of votes. Harding has
been doing great things in Ohio in
the effori to bind up the Republican
party's wounds, and had began
to hope for success in defeating JudBon
Harmon for governor. Rut when
tho Foraker outburst came on, with
all the bitterness and force which
long ago earned the speaker the title
of "Fire Alarm" Foraker, it was |
Immediately recognized that the re-1
suit was not .good. Mr. Harding
gave out the following statement 'u
regard to the affair:
"It wins a typical Foraker speech.
Perhaps his opposition to the newnationalism
will not wholly please
the more devoted followers of Col.
Roosevelt. Rut wo have no special
need to agree upon that subject in
this campaign. There is no censorship
on individual Republican ideas
in Ohio either for or against new
plans. The main thing this year is
to elect a Republican congress, and
in Ohio to elect a Republican administration
in the State for which the
party will assume the respousibili
t r."
The fear that besets the Buckeye
Republicans is that Taft iiiay lose
his own State to the Democrats.
They are particularly anxious to win
because of the President's being a 1
citizen of Ohio, for there is evevy '
prospect that this is a "Democratic 1
year" in that State. 1
An a result of the speech of Fora- 1
kor, it is probable that the dates
for other speeches which he had (
been scheduled to make in the campaign
will be cancelled. Already <
one meeting, at which Foraker and 1
Son-in-law Longsworth were to speak' 1
from the same platform, has been 1
called off, and it is said that the I
Foraker stronghold, Union County, <
will in all probability be carried by (
the Democrats this year. *
The Foraker attack on Rooseveit
recalls the bitter enmity which grew
up between the senator and the president,
while Roosevelt was the oc- v
cupant of the White House. The ci
whole affair grew, largely, out of o
the Brownsville affair. It will bo a
recalled that, while the negroes com- h
opsins the Twenty-Fifth Infan- jj
try were guilty of "ehootingu
p" Brownsville, or- at least,
some of them wero guilty, the
president discharged the whole hunch
without allowing them the right v)l
court-martial. It was lynch-law !n 1
Ji?. ? f e ii..., i .. ... i.I ... V
a Ulllf I'l'lil mini muiii i.inu ill >vnii;u
lynch law is usually administere i, v
according to legal authorities.
Senator Foraker deprecated the
action of the president in "firing ' ?
the negroes without trial, and natuially
the negroes looked to him to defend
them in the senate. \\ the
long struggle that took place over c
the affair, Senator Foraker was determined
in his efforts to see that t
the negro soldiers were given an 0
opportunity to be heard ?-a right'.,
which is supposed to be denied no <.
in a n who is charged uith crime
the civilized world. v
At a dinner of the famous Gridiron
Club in Washington in February, r
1 908, President ltoosvelt took occp- t
sion to defend his action in diseharg- h
ing the negroes, and to denounce the t
men who had opposed him in congress.
He was especially severe, t
and, in the course of his remark * t
he took occasion to use a slang ex- i'
pression which was popular about s
that time?Roosevelt is both a man.- h
or and user of slang, as everyone li
knows. He brought into his remarks
the sentence, "All coons look alike n
to me," to tho amusement of all e
present, except, perhaps. Senator li
Foraker and a few of his way of I?
think in?. c

U8K OF LIMB ON LAND.
Sou thorn ltuilway Jnsuoh Pamphlet
on tlio Subject.
A pamphlet containing information
which should be of the greatest
interest and practical benefit to the
farmers of he South and which may
be had for the asking, has just been
issued by the land and industrial department
of the Southern railway.
The pamphlet treats of "The Use of
Lime on Land." aud tells of the
great benefits to be derived In this
way.
Quotations are given from agricul-|
A 1 A i A i i /? \ I 1 i
lurai auiiionues uuu irom uunov r?
issued by the United States department
of agriculture and various
State deparments, telling on wnat
kind of land lime should be used,
for what crops it will bring the best
results, and how it should be applied.
For improving sour soils such as
are found in many parts of the
South, agricultural authorities agree
that there is nothing so benelicial
as lime since with the aid of leguminous
plants it enables the bVIs to
draw from the atmosphere the nitrogen
so necessary as plant food.
The large deposits of lime in the various
Southern States make the use
of lime for agricultural purposes
inexpensive.
A copy of the pamphlet on "The
Use of Lime on Land" may be secured
by addressing a request to M.
V. Richards, land and industrial
agent, Southern Railway Company,
Washington, I). C., or copies may be
had on application to any freigiit
traffic representative or local or station
agent of the Southern railway.

BURNED TO DEATH

DEATH TOGETHER.
Husband nu<l Fattier Summoned and
Finds Wife Dying from Hums and
Child Dead.
A horrible, piteous and heart-rending
scene met the eyes of Mr. Henry
Morris, a well-to-do young farmer of
the Harris Chapel neighborhood, i>
miles south of Salisbury, N. C., on
Saturday morning, when he was hurriedly
summoned from the field, a
quarter of a mile away whero ho had
been drilling wheat, by a negro boy
whom he had sent to the house on
an errand. When the boy went into
Mrs. Morris' room ho found her
10-months-old baby lying in the fire
burning and its mother lying across
the bed with her clothing burning
from her body.
The boy ran to the field to noti-j
ify Mr. Morris and when they reach-I
ed the scene Mrs. Morris had managed
to get up ?ind draw her child
from the flames and pull It out on
the floor and had again fallen across
the bed, presumably in an effort to
smother the flames which enveloped
her. Every piece of clothing had
been burned from her body and she
was unconscious, in which condition
she remained until her death at four
o'clock that afternoon.
The child was dead when found,
its head being badly burned, one arm
burned off at the shoulder and the
other at the elbow, and the body
badly burned. Had not the affair
been discovered as soon as it was
the house would have been burned,
also. Mrs. Morris had been subject,
to fainting spells from childhood
and it is thought she had one of
these attacks while sitting in front
of the fireplace with her only child
in her arms.
She wits about 3 2 years old and
hitd been married several years.
Their oldest child died less than r
year ago. There was every evidence
that the suffering woman alone, and
in her terrible and dying condition,
made heroic efforts to rescue her
child, as soon as she regained herself
sufficiently to realize what had
happened. The double funeral of
mother and babe was held at Harris
chapel on the following day. *

Tried to Save His Brother and Both
of Them Perish.
How W. F. and J. M. Taylor, brothers,
of Columbus, Ohio, perished
the recent hurricane on the Gulf of :
Mexico, one dying in a vain attempt
to save the other, is told in a new*- !
paper dispatch. The men were enrouto
to the Isle of Pines, whore they
had business interests in addition to
a wholesale establishment at Columbus.
When the storm struck the vessel
on which they were voyaging, one
of the brothers tied himself to a
mast. The other, after trying in
vain to keep a foothold on the deck,
fell exhausted and was washed overboard.
None of the crew could aid
him in that terrific tempest, but the
remaining brother is said to have |
loosened the bonds that held him to j
the mast and dropped into the sea
The act in tlie face of the conditions
was IPtlo short of suicide, according
:o the survivors of the storm.
