Washington. Oct' lT.Prssldant

n unquestioned authority oomprenen
. slve report of the political situation in

of the southern states. William 11
Taft. the Republican standard-bearer,
win 'ha hia tina tomorrow at break
fast and luncheon, after hla notable
a wins- around the circle. The greater
portion of the day. following attendance
at church, will be devoted lo a discus
sion of oolitlcal affair. It Is under
stood that the cabinet roembera In the
city and the political generals who are
accompanying the Republican candidate
will be present at tne conrerenca.
The outcome of the deliberations may
determine whether President Roosevlt
will deliver one or more speeches in
New York atate, as has been suggested
by several of his eastern advisors.
The conference at the White House
gives promise of being one of the most
notable events In political hlatory. Com
ing as It does at the beginning of the
last two weeks of a campaign unsur
passed In its ran id unfoldment of sen'
sational incident-, and at the conclusion
of a notable tour by the administration
candidatethe conferees will be In a
position to place their fingers upon the
'sore spots' and formulate a plan of
battle. for a whirlwind finish.
Taft Might Save Hughes.
While Judge Taft has been touring
the west, President Roosevelt has been
earnestly engaged In sounding political
sentiment In the east. Advices coming
to the White House give the Kmplre
state to Taft but predict the defeat of
oovernor Hugnes. it is me w mio
House impression that If Judge Taft
throws himself Into the breach he may
save the dav for Huahes.
The Connecticut situation Is oauslng
some concern. The fight against can
didate LJlley was reported to the pres
ident today to be extreroaly bitter. It
was these advices that induced the pres
ident to Issue a statement which In ef
fect announced the administration's en
tire approval of Lllley's campaign, f
Uneasy Abont Ohio.
But New York and Ohio will be the
mitin battleground during the closing
days of the campaign.
Although the president and the mem
bers of his cabinet continue to express
the utmost confidence In Taft's elec
tion, their anxiety as to the situation
In Taft's awn state I manifest
. Discussing the situation In Ohio, one
of the members of. the cabinet, tonight
said:
"Whllt I think Ohio la safely Repub
lican there has been a lot of talk re
cently about Koraker's friends knifing
the ticket,' I presume tney will do so
to some extent, for the feeling has
been very bitter. There is also disaf
fection among the labor and negro vote
In the state, but this should be offset
somewnat by the Lea and Hisgen lion
ets, 'Which will undoubtedly counteract
a considerable number of labor votes.
Mr. Taft's recent trip In the state, when
he addressed himself - particularly to
worklngmen, will be produotivs of good
results J .am syre." i
nun cauinei memoer, sunougn
R reaving confidence In Tart's carrying
ew York state, admitted that there
were grave doubts aa to Hughes pulling
through. Dlsousslng the situation else
where, he said;
Counts on Standpatters.
I have no knowledge that the La
Follette factldh in Wisconsin Is going
to cut the national ticket to anv ex
tent, although there have been rumor
to that effect. - Kansas has been re
ported to be close, but I do not think
the results will show it.
The Republican DartT this vear has
K-ar .A,,KI.J with " Ia, ..,(Anal
state fla-hts. I attribute this to the
fact that the standpatters havo been try
ing to maintain tneir ground against tne
representatives 01 Kooseveit policies.
But when It comes to voting, I do not
see how the standpatters can find any
nome put tne Republican party, cer
tainly ther cannot gain anything by
votina for Bryan, and even if It does o
against the grain. I think they will
finally decide to elect Taft.
Zn the Closing Bash.
Postmaster-General Meyer made a
speech here tonight before the District
of Columbia League of Republican
olubs in which he took as his text

FOOTPRINT LEADS SLEUTHS A
MERRY CHASE, ENDING NOWHERE
j' Twa indefatigable officers did a piece
of Sherlock Holmes work; last week that
realty should have brought the guilty
man to book. It looked like a strong
clew, and the further they followed It
the more sure were they that when
they untangled the skein they would
find at the other end the thug who
knocked out P. B. Kelly, the station
agent at Estacada and robbed the depot
aafe last Saturday night.
There was nothing the matter with
their work the only trouble waa that
It waa a false clew which presented It
self. Kelly waa struck down sbout 8
o'clock while sealing a car at USstacada. j
The safe was robbed or 43. w.
LUIls, special agent of the Portland
Railway, Light & Power company, and
Peputy SHariff Archie Leonard went to
work. "
Kelly had been put out gf business
before he had any opportunity to see
the features of his assailant, so he
could give the officers little help, much
as he wished to do so.
In leaving the station the robber had,
however, stepped Into the soft clay
bank, leaving a plain footprint several
inches deep. It was evident that the
mark had been made by Shoes with
pointed toes, and apparently new shoes
at that.
When they learned that a man who
bore a bad reputation had left his work
in a wood camp three miles away, and,
after saying that he was going to Esta
cada, went to Currinsville Instead, they
iook an interest in Mr. waa Man, wnen
they found that he had bought a pair
of shoes corresponding to those which
apparently made the print at the Eata
cada station, the scent grew fresher.
Then they were told that ha was out of
money Saturday, ana had vainly tried
to Dorrow money.
By this time the two officers had
walked miles upon miles, going from
one wood camp to another, but nowhere
was there any further trace of the
man they wanted.
That the much-wanted man had $30
due which he could have drawn Mon
day was the next piece of news. All
day Monday they worked, and still no
sign of their man. Neither did he come
for his money Tuesday, nor Wednesday.
By this time Lillis and Leonard felt
convinced that they were on the right
track, and had the man with the bad
record appeared he would have been ar-
reatea on tne spot.
The end came suddenly. Jn Portland
Thursday they learned tHat the man in
question had Deen In the city Saturday
night and at the time the robbery at
Estacada was taking place he was draw
ing out a sum due him from another
company. It was an absolute alibi!

With the new system of medical in

value of the Innovation secured through
the efforts of Superintendent Rlgler
and Dr. Esther C. PohL city health
officer, has already been signally dem
onstrated.
Dr. L. B. Storey, one of the two
school Inspectors appointed recently by
the mayor, found two cases of small
nor in the Clinton-Kelly school on the
occasion oi nia nrst visit to me duiiu-

oughly, disinfected. Only one day of
school was lost.
If Dr. Btorey had not inspected tne
school DuiiQina tne neaitn ornce wouia
have had no means of knowing that a
contaelous disease was present there
until smallpox had spread all over the
Clinton-Kelly district ana tne scnooi
would have been obliged to close down
for the rest or tne term just as tne
Chapman school did last term.
It will be remembered that this last
mentioned school was discontinued two
months before tne term ended and at
one time 10 families in the district
were quarantined by the health depart
ment. The upnecessary expense caused
to the city by this condition of things
amounted to many times the salary of
a medical Inspector and the lost time
of the students of the district cannot
be replaced.

Detectives have always been sup

money is to be paid, said that he never

witness fees. None had ever been turned

police officers testified because it was

THE ONE QUESTION WE ALWAYS ASK IS: Will this or that give satisfaction? We are not so short-sighted that
we count a sale made after the purchase d completed. The transaction is never closed until the garment has given satis
faction. With that thought in mind, we order our Suits and Coats and Waists and Skirts. We make it the beginning of
every purchase. We make few boastful and extravagant claims. Our garments, we believe, will do more shouting, either
for or against us, than anything we might say. One important statement, however, which we would have you, remember,
especially at a time like this, is we give you the best at the price, no matter what the price, .,-' ' .
