In Indiana is for Bryan this year because f of what we piay call a couh piracy of iVCircumstaiu-es. I So fur as Indiana is concerned, Br vim fi iathiipjear faored of tho gndu, Tho ftfates arejwith himj-.Tbo truth is. with pboth Ohio aid- 4ndiaiiu' toudinc tttroiig y toward Bsyan, jiipn actually familiar 3 with rt ha inside facts of tho campaign Kvare rapidly coming to the cunclusiou ffthat Mr-Taft 's main cliance to win the election. in carrvinc Now York Ml&Htati lose Ohio and Indiana and still 'iwin, provided ho is suecpasful in New uYork, and the most trustworthy infor tarnation as to tun Empire state agrees uwitb-htaafc' which we guv some short tiiuago, that Tuft 's auhanccs aro bet teMbau. Bryuu's. Therefore Tuft must sfiU bo voon side red as in the tend, tuk ing the eoutest as a whole. lu.. taking that Taft can win without Ohio or Indiana it ia assumed, of course, thut Illinois, WiBconain, Minnesota, lo -wa, Kansas and other republican states la the agricultural west staud firmly as ill thtx jiust. Lutur on wo shall have viinore definite information about these tjstate and hall be able to form a clea; f er judgment as to the outcome of the ' -great battle.- For the moment our con iera is with this statu, tho third of th,e decisive triumvirate, Now York, wOlilo ana Indiana. ,MOne Thing Favors Taft j la Taft's favor is tho fact that In- Mliana gave Roosevelt a plurality of f 114,000 four y?ars ago and tho admitted tlaet that this is a republican state with a plurality of about 25,000, perhaptt ,20,000. J Beyond this antecedent condition noth ting appears to be working for him. All tiha springs of change, whether, involv ing relatively large or relatively small numbers of men, are in tho one direc tion from republican to democratic, i It is difficult to reach any other con clusion than that, as Indiana stumls vtoday, Bryan has it by from 10,000 to 40,000. In truth, lending republicans .have admitted to mo they fear this is , true. Watson is, of course, beaten for governor, and it is 6 to 1 the legislature, a United States scnatorship, and two ior three congressmen will go with the hide. The Taft leaders have nut yet 'given up the struggle. They will light on. If Chairman Hitchock can get his hands on $2450,000 and send it to In diana, bo that the Republican organiza tion may havo about $200 to use in each of 1,250 precincts whero money can be put out to advantage, it is still barely possible to snatch Indiana from the burning. But, in my opinion, if Mr. Hitchock is lucky enough ever to get hold of thnt much money in a lump, rhe will be a wise man if he spends it .in New York, where a .Taft triumph -will almost certainly mean the presidency. LOSING MIND CLEARING THE STUBBLE FIELDS OF NORTHWEST i A problem of considerable importance in western Washington and Oregon has :to do with what is called the "lumber men's stubble field" tracts from Which tho timber has been cut cut and which, though desirable for agriculture, ipan be cleared of stumps only at ft cost greater than tho value of tho land for .agricultural purposes. Since the lum bermen harvested their wood crop those lands have remained unproductive, for 4 ires have prevented forest reproduc tion. It has been suggested that a sav ing can be made in the cost of pulling ithe stumps if the stumps of Douglas Sir are used by distillation for the pro duction of turpentine, tar, charcoal and other products. Thero is no question -that tho fir stamps can be used in this way, but the saving effected, according to the rough estimates which are nlone possible under the circumstances, would -hardly exceed - from one-tenth to one fifth of the coBt of clearing nfr present. Which ranges from $150 to $225 per acre. In a few enses, where the In ml Was not so heavily timbered, the ex ponse of clearing is a" littlo lees. It looks as if the lumbermen's stubble field can be brought economically under the plow only by the contrivance of ome improved method for handling the tumps, which, are too large for the fcgulation stump puller and are now removed by dynamite and the donkey engines.

I'niteil Stntes inspectors who hnve been uspecting naturalization frauds in this ity are said to have forwarded a port to Washington today revenliinr uie ran that IJiego Ustrad Cabrera, son of the nuatemnlan- president, is naturalized citizen of the United Stntes. The report further reveals that young nlirern took this step nt the instance ol Ins father. It. is alleged that the president of nuntemala took this means f safeguarding his property in the southern republic under the American Itizenship of his sou. After young Cabrera became a citt- ison his father began the transfer of huge property holdings both in this country and in Oiinteinnla to him.' The transfers still continue nnd the United States' is unable to prevent the action, but. in the event of ' war in (luiiteinnla could bo called upon to protect young ahrern s holdings, say the nffieinls. Should President ' Cabrera be killed or captured, his estates would be im mune from seizure, or should the pres ident on forced to innko a hurried de parture he could retain his interests through the shrewd move, they say.
