IVES UP To be Hereafter Favored by Taft Administration PLATFORM DISAPPOINTMENT As Tad and Payne Tariff Bill are Ecdorsed Root Permanent Chairman Special to The Evening Review. SARATOGA, N. Y., Sept. 28. The platform adopted by the Republican state convention todayj staggered the Roosevelt adherents. Their expecta tion was that the platform would be of the extreme insurgent type. The endorsement of Taft and the present tariff law have plainly disgusted the rndlcnlH. It Is rumored that Taft and Roosevelt have reached an under standing that hereaftei the progres sives and not the regulars will be the big factors in the National Govern ment. It is asserted that Roosevelt anil Taft will accept the Insurgents of the Cummins, Bristow. Dolliver type, but don t care to meet La Fol lette's advanced position. Roosevelt refused to comment on this rumor. Taking their keynote from Roose velt's speech, declaring war oh cor rupt, politicians, the committee on resolutions presented the party plat form today to the Republican conven tion for ratification. The report con tains an enthusiastic endorsement of the .nit administration and the ' Payne tariff law. The high cost of living was attributed to world-wide conditions' and not to the protective tariff law. This report was threshed out last night and finally adopted by the committee by a vote of 22 to 15. It says. "We enthusiastically endorse the progressive leadership of Presl- I dent Taft and point with pride to the . achievements of his flrBt 18 months of administration. The Payne tariff law reduced the average rate of duty 11 per cent and turned a treasury deficit into a surplus. Unlike the Wilson law, these great reductions didn't' invade or hurt any one in dustry." The resolutions said: "The ad vanced cost of living is only a local reflex on the world-wide tendency and cannot be said to be caused by the Payne tariff law." Roosevelt ar rived at the hall exultant and called the convention to order nt 11:20. The regulars are more defiant than ever before. Senator Root was made permanent chairman today. In a brief speech he said the people demanded the initia tive and referendum and direct pri mary, and he recommended that the party endorse' them. Lor-liner Investigation. CHICAGO, Sept: 28.

We consider ourselves fortunate in being able to show you the "Benjamin' ' Poole Sack for Autumn and Winter '10-11. It is one of the most charming models imaginable. 1 For the young business man, or the middle aged man who still has the youthful desire for "character clothes," the Poole sack is, to our mind, a peerless article. Our assortment allows you a wide choice in fabrics and the lines and tailor ing are just the same as you would insist upon your tailor giving you. Really, the "Poole" is a most unusual model and apparently it accomplishes all one vould ask in a suit requiring an investment of twice the money. Many of the best dressed men about town are wearing "Benjamin Clothe" and'are familiar with their exquisit finish and excellent quality. If you aren't one of them, you should look into this matter of Made in New York and Warn of its meaning as applied to "Benjamin OottW-we'll be glad to tdl yoa aU afewit them. . HARTHSTOGGERY . ... ii '' yy Ideal weather and the track In the finest condition it has ever been, marked the opening of the first day's racing nt the District Fair this after noon. Most of the stores closed from 1 to 5 p. m., and the attendance was good. Similar closing hours will be observed on Thursday and Friday, 'showing the decided Interest the business people of the city are taking in this fair. The grounds and build ings present a neater and finer ap pearance than ever before. This con dition nrevnlls from the fine hler nnw 1 archway at the entrance to the farthest side of the race track. It is really a pleasure to visit the fair this year with its new conveniences, Everybody was still very busy this morning nlncine pxhimtR nnri the n r- I plays now present a line appearance. It Is regretted that there Is a lack ' of interest among the livestock g'row 'ers of the county. While every branch of this industry is represented, the exhibits should be much more' numerous. Douglas county livestock Is known to he equal to the best grown anywhere and the. owners should tnke pride In placing it on exhibition. What is shown at this fair is of excellent quality. It is only the quantity that is lacking, to make the exhibit more competitive. The growers are missing a splendid opportunity by not making a larger snowing. We know they have fine animals and many of them and they are well worthy of exhibition at any fulr. Everyone regrets that more of them were not brought out. The agricultural and horticultural exhibits far surpass any former show ing made here, and are the admira tion of all. The fancy work, art and domestic departments are well filled by the ladies, and the cut flowers are numerous and of unusual beauty. There Is a good showing of blooded poultry and these proud birds are worthy of the inspection of anyone. Taken nil together, it Is a splendid fair and no one should fail to attend.

' Eugene Guard: A fruitless task was that of safe-crackers who blew open the sate and broke open the cash register at the Fisher laundry at an early hour this morning, for nothing of vulue to anyone except the owner of the laundry was taken, as there was no money left In either the safe or the cash register. The rob bers took a lot of papers, including deeds, abstracts of title, Insurance papers and similar documents which could not possibly he of any value to them. The safe, which was not a large one, wns about ruined by the heavy charge of giant, powder which shat tered the Iron door. The safe door has always been left unlocked by E. L. Fisher, proprietor of the laundry, and it was so left Inst night, but the safe-crackers evi dently did not try the knob to ascer tain the fnct. Had they done so they would have saved Mr. Fisher the ex pense of buying a new safe. Disappointed nt securing nothing of value from the safe, the criminals next attacked the cash register. This they also broke open when they could Just us well have pressed down a key and the cash register would have come open. Sheriff Bown has made a full In vestigation of the robbery, but so fur has been unable to secure a clue. OOVERNOR BENSON. ON nis WAV TO OREGON; CURED. BLEDSOE WINS APPEAL IN STARK LUMBER CO. CASE.
