It showed that the representative men and women of Umatilla county not only favors votes for women, but are I enthusiastic workers for Amendment No. 1, which Is to be voted upon at the election, Nov. 5. The gathering was remarkable be cause of the presence of the leaders of every political belief. The toasts Included speeches by representatives of every political party except the Socialist party. The explanation was made after the. banquet that the So-J clallsts were omitted because Dr. M. V. Turley of Hermlston was unable to appear. It was noticeable however, that special effort was made to secure substitute speakers for other parties. Ad. Nye spoke In behalf of the Dem ocratic party, In the absence of Dr. C. J. Smith. The Socallsts, however, said they did not mind the apparent over-sight, Inasmuch as their party has openly espoused the cause of woman suffrage ever since It was born and has ad vocated Its adoption In planks In the national platform of the party In every civilized nation on the globe so that the attitude of the party on this ques tion Is so well known that It needs no rehearsal at a public function. Rev. Nathan Evans, speaking for the Prohibition party, and Dr. I. U. temple, spokesman for the Progres sive party, "had the edge" on the rep resentatives of the Republican and Democratic parties and evidently en joyed the advantage of being able to point to actual evidence of good faith In the suffrage planks In their re spective platforms.

Theodore Roosevelt For Vice President-- Hiratn Johnson THE RIGHTEOUS ROOSEVELT (Atlanta Constitution.). .... - iMr. Roosevelt will stand out, as intimated by the Washington Post as a president In many respects unprecedented. His achievement is not marred by one broken pledge. His blbgraphers, to date, are un , able to find a single Instance In which he employed wild promises to smooth his pathway to office. Always he has striven at genuine evils and sought to effect genuine reforms. No conscious or lnad . vertent hypocrisy cumbers his good name or shadows his political future. As much, sadly, cannot be said for some dozens of demagogues, who, as the Post sallently points out, have left a trail of ruin In their wake by attempting to Imitate Roosevelt, but with cheapness and wretched Judgment and palpable Insincerity. Roosevelt goes back to private life, a man hononed and respected and acclaimed by all civilization. Without Roosevelt's acumen or honesty, they endeavored to emulate his methods and h's success. They had sufficient common shrewd ness to sense the marvelous manner In which his brand of righteous ness had laid hold on the popular heart. Lacking his aincerlty, lack ing his grasp of details and generalities, lacking his supreme good sense and his cardinal honesty, they gave endless promissory notes to be redeemed In impossible performances. The man with this record of accomplishments is to day the Presidential Candidate of the Progressive Party THEODORE ROOSEVELT. LA GRANDE VISITORS WBBE SOT AUTHORIZED President Taft Dos Sot Indorse the Work of Harlan and Bede Who ' Spoke Here. It will be remembered that when Theodore Roosevelt was here dur ing the fair a special train conveying Harlan and Bede followed and these gentlemen talked on the street following Roosevelt's speech. The matter was dropped there until the last few days when President Taft has taken the matter up and had Mr. Hllles, his campaign man ager. Issue the following letter: To Theodore Roosevelt: President Taft has instructed me to Inform you that under no cir cumstances will he allow those who campaign in his behalf to in dulge In false accusation concerning your personal morals, temper ance or probity. He begs me to say that he has telegraphed today to J. Adam Bede and John Marshall Harlan, the short-weight son of the late lamented and honored Justice of the supreme court, to cease their campaign of abuse on the stump. Further than this he desires at this late date, but In some lttlng manner, to acknowledge that your statement In regard to accepting another term was made by you on ly when It was necessary on that occasion to Insure Mr. Taft's nomi nation In 1908. The presldnet believes that he has been lll-advlsed during his administration by Crane, Guggenheim, Aldrlch, Cannon and Barnes, ad that there can be no hope of his success unless he takes the Telns In his hands and acts according to his own natural, honorable inclinations. - CHARLES P.
