and Tour Middle States local
Speakers to Conduct Cam
paign in Early Stages.
CHICAGO, Sept. S. Chairman Frank H.
Hitchcock of the Republican National
Committee announced tonight that, when
Mr. Taft goes from Sandusky to Cincin
nati on Tuesday, the candidate will meet
the people at all points where stops are
made by the Big Four train. Mr. Taft
will leave Sandusky at 1:40 P. M. The
train stops at all stations between San
dusky and Carey, and at about a dosen
points between Carey and Cincinnati.
Big Gnns Wait Till October.
Most of the speakers of National prom
inence who will take the stump for
Taft and Sherman will not be available
until about October 1. and until then the
campaigns In the doubtful states will be
managed by local speakers. Senators
Bevertdge and Borah and Leslie M.
Shaw. ex-Secretary of the Treasury, and
perhaps Secretary Garfield, will probably
be ready by October 15. A few speeches
by these men will be made later. Vice
President Fairbanks and Speaker Can
non are expected to make political ad
dresses outside of their own states, be
ginning October J, and Senators Foraker,
La Follette and Knox and Governor
Hughes will start out the same week.
In addition to these, practically all mem
bers of Congress who will make up the
volunteer speaking force have agreed
to arrange their pll.ns so as to speak
constantly for the' last month of the
campaign.
Speakers M ill Be Tald.
Mr. Hitchcock today corrected the im
pression that the volunteer speaking force
is to be used to tne exclusion of paid
speakers. He said today that negotiations
are proceeding to secure the best Re
publican speakers In the country, and
that many of these will be paid for their
services. They will be used during the
last two weeks.
The speakers' bureau In the West has
been besieged by demands from every
doubtful state that Mr. Taft. Mr. Sher
man and prominent Senators be sent
into the campaign. It is an indication of
political interest. It is Mr. Taft's de
termination ' to remain In Cincinnati dur
ing October. It Is possible, however,
that late in the campaign, perhaps the
last two weeks in October, he may maks
a number of short speaking trips Into
the Middle West states.
The chairmen of the Middle West ex
ecutive committees wtll meet in Chicago,
when Mr. Hitchcock comes here aealn,
soon after September 15. Until this date
Mr. Hitchcock expects to remain in the
East,

Western Republican headquarters In this

Taft and myself and he wanted me to
give him my version of the story.
"I told him there had been no agree

OMAHA. Sept 3. The official can

EFFORT TO BEAT CUMMINS
Iowa Standpatters Threaten to Star
Out of Caucus.
DES MOINES. Ia.. Sept. 3. (Special.)
Determined to prevent the election of
Governor Cummins for the. short teem
for United States Senator and thus to
balk the progressives of a victory, 40
standpat members of the Legislature
have oonjured up the danger of Demo
cratic success In the election next No
vember as ground for not . going into
caucus.
They threaten to stay out of the cau
cus and thus block the nomination of
Cummins as the Republican candidate.
Their argument Is that his election would
so disgust many Republican voters that
they would stay away from the polls or
support Democratic candidates for the
Legislature. This, they say, would give
the Democrats a majority and cause the
election of a Democratic Senator for the
full term.

is not entirely flattering.
Critics of the nonprofessional element,
while admitting that- the presentation
was a gorgeous stage pasreunt, deal with
the performance In a less kindly spirit,
declaring that the ballet Is overweighted
by its ponderous display of learning.
The Tageblatt says that the audience
was thoroughly bored and adds that the
performance shows It to be Impossible to
"Btage the contents of an ethnological
museum and make them Interesting."
The Boersen Courier asserts that the
performance was "not only a fiasco, but
