WASHINGTON. Oct. II. President
Taft having extended his across-the-eontlnent
trip eo as to keep him away
from the Capitol until mld-Xoverobr.
tho a-OMlpe'ara revellns; In the why
and wherefore. Those of the ultra
"progressive" variety are convinced
that the President has become fright
ened over the possibility that the La
Follette forces will steal some of the
. Southern States away from him and
so Is going; to pay a visit to that sec
tion with the purpose of spiking a
few Insurgent guns, if he can. before
the tattle opens.
As a matter of fact, the Adminis
tration's political managers are not so
badly wrought over the recent activ
ities of the La Follette boomers aa
one might Imagine. There Is no dis
counting; the energy and financial re
sources of the antl-Taft contingent,
but tho view of Rastern politicians Is
that the present Executive will be re
nominated against all opposition.
Coafereace Attracts Jiellc.
In spite of the feeling of certainty
of Taft's renomlnatlon. the Hast.,
newspapers as well a politicians, has
eat up and taken notice of the "pro
gressive" conference held In Chicago
this weak. The general tone of com
ment In this section has been a mix
ture of ridicule and attack on the mo
tives of. those who are most promi
nent In the antl-Taft movement. Pol
iticians point out that Garfield. Pln
chot. Crane and other leaders now at
tached to the-La Follette cause are not
men of previously proved ability In
controlling conventions or even dele
gations to any great extent, and the
aforesaid politicians are sanguine that
matters will move much In the man
ner of old-time standards.
It also Is emphasised that all these
men and others were disaffected either
because their power with the previous
Administration was not continued by
Taft or because of personal grudges
they held against President Taft.
Tradttloa la Respeeted.
As matters now stand. New England
and the Eastern states are opposed to
violating the traditions and turning;
down the President for even a chance
to try for a second term. The South
proverbially Is for the element or the
taction In command. The only way the
Southern delegates have become even
doubtful In the past has been through
the use of money. Sometimes this has
forced the Administration element to
"put up" as well as to keep the restive
Southern delegate from being corrupted
by the opposition.
In order to wtn any fair and square
fight next year the Insurgents. It Is
conceded, roust capture a large por
tion of the Southern delegates. The
East and the South together absolutely
control Republican National conven
tions, there being no two-thirds rule
ss to nominations as In the case of
Iemocratlc conventions.
Clalaas Made far Smth.
Managers of the "progressive" cam
paign committee have been making
bold claims about capturing Southern
states, but the question that arises with
the practical politicians on the outside
Is how It can be done without resorting
to practices that the new movement
Itself repudiates. The practical poli
ticians do not believe that the millen
nium with respect to the attitude of
Southern delegations Is at hand.
Taft's friends are not giving any
thought to the possibility of so-called
traitors among the regulars of the
party, and at the same time are Insist
ing Taft deserves "progressive" sup
port because he has shown that ha Is A
"practical progressive."

SANTA BARBARA. .CaL. Oct. li
That President Taft'a special tr.ua
actually passed over the El Capltan
MO-foot bridge, 15 miles north of here,
early Monday morning, while II sticks
of dynamite were In place all ready
to be exploded, was the opinion ex
pressed last night by George W. Inge,
an expert on explosives employed by
the Southern Pacific Railroad to In
vestigate the alleged attempt at bridge
dynamiting.
Mr. Inge returned to Santa Barbara
last night from El Capttan. accom
panied by Sheriff Nat Stewart, of
Santa Barbara County, and several
other officials. He left for San Fran
cisco later.
The Authorities admit that they have
two men under surveillance but deny
that arrests are imminent. The theory
of an expert coming to the bridge with
high explosives seems to be In doubt,
since the stamp on the dynamite used

WHEAT MOVEMENT RECORD
One Third of Available Supply Has
Been Shipped to Todewater.
SEATTLE. Wash, Oct. IS. The
movement of wheat from the Interior
to tidewater points on the North Pa
cific Coast is unprecedented. With
scarcely two months of the new sea
son passed, 10.250 carloads of wheat
have been received at Seattle, Tacoma
and Portland. It is estimated that
close to 15.000.000 bushels of wheat, or
approximately one-third of the North
west's available supply this season,
has been shipped to tidewater. Grain
men estimate that the supply of wheat
In Washington. Oregon and Idaho will
be approximately 45.000.000 bushels.
Should the movement of wheat from
the country continue during the Fall
months, the surpiy would be out of
the country within six months. Graln
mrn. however, do not look for any
such developments. Wheat shipments
are already slackening and the bulk
cf the farmers who sell their wheat
In the Fall have sold. Many million
bushels of wheat will be held regard
less of prevailing prices.
FROST DEMURRER ARGUED
Two Crime Charged, Contends De
fendant In Coal Land Cases.
CHICAGO. Oct. IS. Indictments
chars ln Albert Frost and others with
conspiring to defraud the Government
of $10,000,000 In Alaska coal lands
were attacked on a demurrer before
Judge Landla In the United States
restrict Court today by counsel for
George A. Ball, one of the defendants.
The indictments, he argued, set up
two separate crimes. One charge Is
that the defendants conspired to de
fraud the Government of the "posses
sion and use" of the coal lands by
means of Illegal filing of notices of
location. Another charge is that the
defendants defrauded the Government
of "title" to the lands by means of
Illegal application to enter and
purchase.

vened and ordered the examination to
proceed.
Charles D. Chaffee, the man excused,
was challenged for cause, because his
name Is not on the Los Angeles
County assessment roll.
George W. McKee. the other man
challenged, held the. dynamite explosion
theory, but expressed no animus to
ward union labor.
A new line of inquiry was developed
by the defense In the examination of
Edward F. Decker, a landscape gar
dener. Decker said he had never work
ed for General Harrison Gray Otis,
publisher of the Times, or for Harry
Chandler. General Otis' son-in-law.
He said he used to belong to the
Electrical Workers' Union, but was
called out on strike and left electrical
work for less difficult employment.
He said he had no prejudice against
the prisoner.

Decker was passed for the time.
Edward C. Robinson, the talesman
under examination when court ad
journed tonight, -said he was pre
judiced -against the way labor unions
"are conducted In California," be
cause of strikes. He said he did not
know whether he considered strikes
legal or Illegal, but his views were
well fixed.
Talessaaa'a Mlad Made Up.
TalesTfan McKee declared that he
had formed his opinion as to the dyna
mite explosion by reading accounts of
it.
"Do you believe." he was asked by
Darrow, "that you could listen favor
ably to evidence that the building waa
blown up by gas?"
"Xo," he replied.
"It would take much evidence to
change your opinion?"
"Yes."
-Would it take a great deal of It?"
"Yes." said McKee. emphatically.
"You've had that opinion for several
months?"
"Yes."
"You couldn't be fair and impartial
on that subject V
"I don't think so."
Here Attorney Darrowx challenged
McKe for cause, but the prosecution
resisted and cross-examination was
begun.
G. Ray Horton. for the state, drew
from McKee the admission that if
sworn as a juror he "would act fairly
and Impartially." confining his ques
tions to the guilt or Innocence of the
defendant and not the cause of the ex
plosion, ending with an appeal to the
court that under the penal code a tales
man could serve If his opinion waa
based on reading or rumors.
State's Position' Declared Outlined.
Judge Bordwell said that he would
take the matter under advisement, but

sides argued the point. Attorney Dar

challenge yesterday of another tales
man, for the same kind of bias, the
state had conceded that such talesmen

District Attorney Fredericks refused
to admit that any such concession had

cause was not a collateral Issue, as far
as the prosecution was conoerned.

contained in food, which is the source of all physical
strength. When a man " doesn't feel just right,"
when he doesn't sleep well, has an uncomfortable

which prevents development of germ

Pilocarpine, although not a coloring

Borax, because of its well-defined
