Portland papers are full of fran
tic appeals for money to feed their
starving poor, and in the same issue
they are boasting of their immense
bank deposits, some $20,000,000.00,

kept there as an evidence of their
solvency, it is to be presumed; and
are continually urging people to
bring their money to the banks.
Suppose the writer of this item had
20,000,000 farms and refused to use

P'x-President Taft is out with an
illuminating address about the sure
return to power of the old stand
patters next year. Don't count your
chickens before they are hatched, Mr.
Taft. Did any of your readers ever
hear this fat and mighty man of av
oirdupois attempt to make a speech?
It certainly is a painful experience.
His little, short, jerky sentences are
uttered in a rising and falling cadence
that drones on for an interminable
time without pith or point, and after
a few minutes his voice becomes so
husky that a person a short distance
away can hardly hear him at all,
There is little likelihood of anyone
of the political complexion of Taft
ever occupying the White House.
The American people are not that
silly.
