Rooevelt is out of it. It is said that he has written a letter to a personal friend admitting that he cannot be elected. He has been forced to this conclusion by reason of the fact that in Michigan, Colorado, Washington, Minnesota, and elsewhere, the so called Progressives have made a pit iful showing in the primaries. In a square fight between Presi dent Taft and Woodrow Wilson the election of the former is certain. President Taft is strong in the east and is gaining daily in the west.. Many Republicans who are willing to vote for Wilson in order to insure the defeat of Roosevelt are now real izing the fact that this coure will not be necessary and that. by voting for Mr. Taft they will accomplish the de feat of both Wilson and Roosevelt. The Republican managers are per fecting organizations in every state and will make a strong pull to trium phantly re-elect the Republican tick et. HOW WOULD HE DO IT? "We propose to legislate, for the farmer, so that he can deal directly with the consumer, and so that when the consumer pays for produce the money 'may go directly into the pock ets of the farmer, and by this means Men and Women Today Still Like Cave Dwellers By Dr. WILLIAM F. WAUGH, Neurologist, of Chicago HERE IS A CONSTANTLY THICKENING COAT OF THE VAR NISH OF CIVILIZATION FORMED OVER THE MAN AND THE WOMAN, BUT. UNDERNEATH IT .THEY ARE IDENTICAL WITH THE CAVE MAN AND CAVE WOMAN, UNCHANGED AT HEART. THE SIMPLE MAXIMS THAT RULED THE CAVE DWELLER GOVERN HUMANITY TODAY. . Every woman sits and waits the coming of her lord." She ia ready to follow when he beckons. HE IS MASTERFUL. He woos not, beseeches not, implores not, serves not. He takes his own when he finds it. He commands, knowing he will be obeyed, and that is the SIGN FOR WHICH SHE WAITS. - ' . His ancestor simply caught his woman, knocked her down if she resisted and dragged her, none too gently, to his lair. The nearer the modern approximates this type and method the BETTER IT SUITS THE WOMAN. History does not tell os that one of the Sabine nwiids refused the union thus forced upon her. CUB we will cope with the high cost of living as no other means can." Col onel Roosevelt. . The foregoing is a sentence from speech wWcn Col Roosevelt recent. ly made in Oklahoma, He has made substantially the same statement in a score, or perhaps in hundreds of I speeches, so it cannot be regarded as a slip of the tongue, an accidental ab surdity. But that is is an absurdity who can deny? Why does not the farmer deal directly with the "consumer now? Is there any law preventing or prohib iting it? Could any law be enacted that would compell it? Everybody knows that in a limited way the farmer does, deal directly with the consumer now. In the small towns farmers do sometimes drive from door to door selling their pro duce direct to the consumers. So there is no law against it. But everybody knows, also, that, speaking broadly, it is, and always will be, wholly impossible for the farmer to deal directly with the con sumer. How could a farmer with a hundred fat steers to sea, deal direct ly with the consumers of meat? How could a farmer with 10,000 bushels of wheat in his graneries deal directly with the people who eat bread? How could a great city like Chicago be fed if its people could deal only with the farmers who produce the food upon which they subsist? Gn the streets of New York the other day a woman orator declared that meat was high because the meat trust would not kill cattle enough, and "If Roosevelt were president he wuld compel them to kill more"" cat tle!" The whole country laughed at the ridiculous declaration, and said: "How like a woman." But the speech of the woman was not one whit more absurd, than this studied and repeated statement of the third term candidate himself that "we deal directly with the consumer." It is not only undesirable economi cally, but it is impossible physically. And everybody knows it. How the Great Penguin Hatches. The great penguin of the southern cir cle, standing with its head as high as a man's waist, hatches its eggs in a peculiar manner. These are not laid upon-the ground and brooded on after the manner of most birds' eggs. The female lays two large eggs. The first she hands over to the male bird, the other she keeps. The egg is held on the upper surface of the large flat feet, and is pushed up under the waistcoat of thick feathers. It is there held close to the body, whose warmth gradually vitalizes the young bird. So tenacious are the parent birds of this grip that if you knock one of them over It will fall on its back with" its feet stuck stiffly out, still clutching the egg to its body. Substitute For Handcuffs. , The French police do not make use of handcuffs, but a chain' with-a cross bar on each end. The Opinion She Sought, "Well, what do you think of my new hat?" she asked. "Do you want a candid opinion?" he questioned. "Heavens, no!" Bhe replied. "Say something nice." Exchange. MORNING ENTERPRISE WEDNESDAY, Next Time TRUSTS ARE FOR T. R. Their Directors Contribute to His Campaign Fund. ' Harvester Trust Perkins and 8teel Trust Munsey Give Him Half of Total Amount Contributed. y Roosevelt's cry of "Stop thief," has not succeeded in diverting public at tention from the liberal support which he is receiving from the big trusts. Among the significant contributions to the third party campaign funds the past week were those of George W. Perkins, a director of the Harvester Trust, and Frank A. Munsey, of the Steel Trust, for $15,000 each. Perkins says that more will be forthcoming when needed. He cannot be charged with ingratitude. The Harvester Trust was organized during Roosevelt's administration with a paper capitalization of one hundred and thirty million dollars. The tangi ble assets upon which this vast amount of watered stock was issued amounted at the time to only thirty millions of dollars. Ex-Senator Hans brough of North Dakota declares that a word from Roosevelt, who was then president, would have prevented the formation of this great combine. But the word was not spoken. The deal went through and the farmers who buy Harvester Trust Implements have been helping to pay the dividends on this extra one hundred millions of watered stock ever since. Later in the Roose velt administration the department of justice, on its own initiative, was about to begin prosecution against this trust for violation- of the Sherman law. But Mr. Perkins appealed to his friend, President Roosevelt, and by the president's personal order the pro ceedings were stopped. -Mr. Perkins has not been a power in the White 'House during the present administra tion, and by direction of President Taft a suit is now pending to dissolve the Harvester Trust. Is it any wonder that Mr. Perkins contributes liberally to the third term campaign fund. And is it any wonder that Mr. Frank A. Munsey is equally liberal, when It is remembered that he is a heavy stockholder in the Steel Trust, whose coffers were enriched to the extent of sixty millions of unearned dollars by the absorption of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company, its most danger ous competitor an absorption which a recent congressional Investigation declares to have been plainly against the law, and which never would have been made except for the promise ob tained in advance from President Roosevelt that the Jaw would not be invoked against It. These are not campaign slanders. They are acknowledged and undis puted truths. And they are set down here merely to make it clear why It happens that George W. Perkins,-' a director of the Harvester Trust, and Frank A: Munsey, heavily interested in the Steel Trust, can afford to be generous with their funds in financing the third term campaign. They found Colonel Roosevelt a friend indeed when he was last in the White House, and from their point of view they are fully warranted in drawing upon their plethoric bank accounts to put him back again. A Word to the Farmers. From the Leavenworth (Kan.) Timest - :. If the farmers want good times to continue, they will vote for Taft. If they want to take the chance of get ting less for their crops, they will vote for either Roosevelt or Wil son. - - - Some closa observer has remarked that the longer Col. Roosevelt re flects over his past life, the more cer tain he Is that he never made a mis take. You may have noticed that the colo nel has no hard words for the bosses who are for him. . Domestic Diplomacy. "Henry!" "Yes. my dear." " r "There's (50 cents missing from your pay envelope." "Yes, love.'. "Well, what did you do with it?" "Don't be- crazy, dearest v I'll ex plain. You remember, don't you, that I've been calling you up every day to tell you how much I loved you?" "I remember perfectly, but what has that to do with the (50 cents?" "Why, you see. sweetheart, the boss charged me 10 cents for each telephone call." -' Yes, dear reader. She believed it St Louis Post-Dispatch. A small classified ad will rent that vacant room.

Lovett, of the Harriman lines, has completed a five week's tour of inspection of the system. Definite plans for a solution of the vexations , problem of handling pas senger and freight traffic ini Chicago have been made. At a cost of $200,-, 000,000,- one-half of which is to be used for the construction of passen- ger and freight terminals, the chaotic j situation as to railroad terminals will j be straightened out. - i It is understood that the "Soo" has i purchased the Wisconsin & Michigan j Railway, which runs from Peshligo to ! Iron Mountain. The deal, it is saicL will be closed within a few days. The Wisconsin & Michigan is a . former John R. Walsh property, and was bought by,' John Marsh, the contrac tor, at mortgage sale several months ago. With the acquisition of this road various extensions are said to be planned by the "Soo." The Illinois Central, beginning Sep tember 25, will run a special coach on each colonist day from Cincinnati to California points.- After the first day the car will be run each Tuesday and Friday, except the final limit, Octo ber ,10, which falls on Thursday The colonist rates to California have been increased nearly $5. The increase is due to the fact that the trans-continental lines advanced the rate from Kansas City. The Interstate Commerce Commiss sion hUs fixed September 25 as the the Ohio Council, United Commercial date for hearing a complaint made by the Ohio Council, United Commercial Travelers, against all the electric lines in the state of Ohio., They want the interurban lines to install sani tary drinking systems and to pro vide toilet, facilities on their cars. The commission ; also . entered an order following the Cleveland, South western and Columbus ' Railway Com pany to" increase the speed of cars from 20 to 30 miles an hour between Seville and WooSter and Mansfield and Galion. . Merchants and shippers all over the United States are alarmed at athreat ener freight car shortage which they fear will seriously injure the winter trade movement, which is rapidly as suming most prosperous proportions. A careful investigation, of the views held by traffic officials of the railroads and commercial organizations dis closes the fact that the shortage of equipment is already being felt The various connecting routes of the Eastern roads at Buffalo are suf fering froni the insufficiency of the Plate, Lake Shore" and all the other roads reaching that point are clamor ing for cars to tranfer their freight OCTOBER 2, 1912. Loud, Scoop The Lackawanna is experiencing great diffculty in this connection, the available supply of cars on that road being far from satisfactory.- A new baggage check which is ex pected to lessen the number, of errors and complaints, has been put into use on the Pennsylvania. The duplicate portion of the new check is provided with spaces in which "are printed a number of the principal "bad order" conditions in which baggage is frequently received for checking. A check, on being de livered to a passenger, will be per forated to show in detail the condi tion in which the baggage was re ceived. : It is expected that the use of this new form of check liability of mismatching numbers will be minimi mized, delivery of "baggage expedited and a number of claims greatly reduc ed. . Itching Palm Oil. "Palm oil." a synonym for "graft" is not at all a novelty in this sense. - In 1627 Middietou wrote that "palm oil will make a pursuivant relent" The sixteenth and seventeenth centuries reveled In varieties, of the metaphor. Greene speaks of rubbing palms with "the oile of angels," a humorous allu sion to the coin named after the an gelic figure stamped upon it, and "oil of angels" seems to have been quite a common joke in England. Another writer has a reference to "anointing" an ecclesiastic in the fist "with Indian oyle." Both "anointing" and "greas ing" were frequently " used to mean bribing, even without special mention of the hand as the "part greased. , ' Wants, For Sale, Etc Notices under these classified headings will be Inserted at one cent a word, first insertion, half a cent additional Inser tions.
