By Perry Arnold. (United Press staff correspondent.) New York, Sept. 14. Former Presi dent William Howard Taft will take the stump for a series of speeches in sup port of Charles E. Hughes in Oeto ber." The speakers' burejju at republican headquarters is now working out Taft's itinerary, it was announced today. It is believed the former president will spend some time in Ohio. Former Senator Elihn Root will also join the Hughes' speaking forces in Oc tober. It was announced that Root will make a swing through New York state. President Taft contributed to the re publican campaign literature today with a letter to the Hughes' national college league, in which he said: "There are so many reasons why Mr. Wilson should not be continued at the head of the administration that some of the important ones ore apt to be forgotten in their multiplicity'. It is of the highest importance that in the very critical issues that are to be met in con nection with the ending of the war that we should have a consistent and intel ligible policy of a constructive and courageous naturc.nnd this cannot be predicated on a continuance of the democ ra t ic ad mi n i st rn t io n . ' Chairman Willcox today said he had received reports indicating that the re publicans have an excellent chance to carry North Carolina, the home state of Secretary of the Navy Daniels. Senator Smoot gave AVillcox glowing reports trom me west. "Veda the Vampire" at Ye Liberty Theatre "Veda, the Vampire," is the title o'f the motion picture play which will lead the bill at the Ye Liberty theatre be ginning next Sunday afternoon, and only by the liberal and whole-hearted courtesy of Manager T. G. Bligh was it possible to introduce this highly popular society piay in, tnis city. Interesting to note, this is the first strictly uregon nome-talent motion pic ture production to oe snown not only in Salem but in tho history of America' leading industry. "Veda, the Vampire," was tuKen in Portland, and is the frurt of the endeavors of those members ot Metropolitan society who nroffereA their assistance solely for the purpose of charity. The picture will travel na tion-wide, but the real significance of this fact is that its benefits will go to one of the most worthy institutions in the Northwest, the home for the aged, or oiii people s Home, at Portland. Mr. Hligh, in accepting this produc tion, did so in the hope of being one of the many who are lending financial aid to the old people's home. The local theatre man has been a liberal -supporter of charitable institutions in the past and has shown admirable spirit of philanthropy whenever occasion aron, but in this instance he is adding doub ly to his reputation as a cheerful giver in that he is donating his property is tho interest of needy circumstances which are of state-wide importance to those needy and unable to aid them selves. State Treasurer Kay left yesterday for a hunting trip. lie will be absent about a,, week. Announcement is mado at the office of State Superintendent Churchill that A. C.

CHICAGO CAPITALIST SATS PROSPERITY IS COMTNO ing of the North Bank, the piercing of the Deschutes canyon by two lines, and tho general extension and improvement of railroad properties. About 1900, said Mr. cyllestiy, started a period of infla tion of real estate values that lasted until three years ago. Then the process of squeezing out the water began and the squeezing has been pinehing the northwest since. "Real estate val ues," said -Mr. Hyllesny, "went ridicu lously high and then the boom broke. Of course, the holders of the inflated land lost. Hut prosperity is now com ing back. Hock bottom has been reach ed and the northwest is now on the upgrade.

The rapidly spreading forest fire in the Santa Cruz mountains threatening the destruction of many ranchers and the famous big redwoods in the Alpine district aud Big Basin today smashed all social dtstinc- tion. Side by side with ranch owners, citizens, forestry men and students from the engineering department of Stanford University, forty prisoners from the Santa Clara county jail are battling valiantly in an effort to stop the. ravages of the flames. This morning the fire was sweeping toward Black Mountain. Unless it can be controlled before reaching the top of the ridge, it is feared that the big redwood forest, valued at 15,000,000 is doomed. A new army of fighters is expected today, as (lovernor Johnson has instructed Professor Wing of Stan ford to spare no expense in the fight, and Wing, after an all night battle is convinced that more men aro needed. Telephone advices today stated that 30 students, bended by Professor C. Wing, battled with the, blaze all night and continued their efforts. Meantime back-firing succeeded in Having ''Hidden Villa," the magnifi cent summer home of Charles Deering, at least temporarily. The principal fight, however, is be ing made on Black -Mountain, which is the key to the redwoods.
