Harmony at the national conven tlon. with its influences reaching out to every republican voter in the country, has settled down upon Chicago just before the big gathering in such heavy folds and with such men and interests favoring peace, that the dying notes of the sullen field candidates' guns are drowned out by the cheering cry of "Taft." ' Realizing at the last moment the futility of further struggle, the allies are showing their true party patriotism by rallying about the big war secretary and the "flying wedge," gaining momentum with each arriving delegation, will not be stopped until the convention declares, either by acclamation or upon the first ballot, in favor of the Ohio man. It cannot be said that the fair, open battle of the last few weeks, wholesome and bloodless, has worked any harm to the party. There are republicans whose principles lead them to support men who are disliked by others of the same political faith. Corporation Interests figure men that the great mass of voters cannot support. Localities pledge for a certain candidate because they know his works and are assured of his actions. Each candidate has friends behind hjm who are strong and true. It is not of party splits and ruptures that we must talk whea considering these things, but of the honest effort of honest republicans to benefit their country and their party standards. With the arrival of Senator Murray Crane, of Massachusetts, in Chicago Saturday, the disquieting talk dropped to a murmum. Crane, shrewd strategist of the anti-Taft forces, saw the situation and counseled his colleagues in the matter. Other leaders. taking like action among the excit ed workers, have carried the results further and the spirit of harmony is bringing together all delegations with but one Idea: Support the nominee, which now seems to mean, Cling to Taft! WOULD IT NOT. Wouldn't It really be fine to see President Theodore Roosevelt In the vice-

pesident's chair, laying the lash to the members of the famous millionaire's club, the United States senate; seeing him block the pretty games of the Standard oil; the gigantic railway trusts which have in the past dictated to the United States senate just about as they saw fit and wielding the lash here and there to the bem interests of the people of the United States? Roosevelt would not be the Cannon of the senate. He would be an entirely different individual. Where Joseph G. Cannon takes particular pride in boosting the interests of the few, principally the corporate interests, Roosevelt would take as particular a delight in selng that the interests of the people were dealt fairly and squarely with. Then there is a vast difference in the personalities of the two men, which is always a determing factor in the accomplishment of things. Roosevelt, with a determined purpose in life, a man of courage and convictions and a man who really knows of the best interests of the people, rs well fitted to sit as presiding officer of the highest law-making body in the country. Cannon, on the other hand, cares not his" proverbial "Damn" about the interests of the great common people. He lo for Joseph G. Cannon first, last and all the time, and does things to satis

fy his own personal vanity and court I favor with the all powerful ones. He has been an enemy of Roosevelt, par- j ticularly because the big stick has ' whizzed through the air several times j signalling him to "get busy" and do j something. It was President Roose-j vclt's interference with congicss on j several different occasions, when tne ! interests of the people were at stake,! that greatly perturbed the "Blue Jeans" stateman from Illinois. The i fact that a president dared to interfere i with his tyrannical rule has greatly shocked the Joseph G. and for this reason it gave him occasion in the last session of congress to place himself in disfavor with the American people by directly opposing certain measures just because they were Rooseveltian in nature, in order to even up with the president. Interesting developments would undoubtedly follow were Roosevelt named for vice president at the republican convention, subsequently elected, and placed in power in the senate while his political enemy. Cannon, were elected to congress again and once more seated in the speaker's chair. To say the least there would be a wide variance in caring for the interests of the country at large. IT'S UP TO RICHMOND. It has often been remarked by visitors to Richmond, that this city is one without patriotism; that is, if it has any, it never shows it. National holidays have In the past few years had no more than passing attraction to the residents of the Quaker town it is claimed. It is regrettable that such a view is taken of Richmond, but the merchants and others now have the chance to demonstrate to the "doubting Thomases" that there is just as much old fashioned patriotism in the city as any other in the United States. The Knights of the Golden Eagle are now engaged in securing various attractions for a big celebration here July 4th. This organization is not working to enrich its own coffers, but is working to revive the custom of celebrating the Fourth in the old fashioned manner, in Richmond. The organization should have the support of all. SHOULD BE FAIRBANKS. Judging from the press reports from Chicago, a compromise by the Indiana delegation that would give Taft the first place and bring Fairbanks's name

upon the ticket to succeed himself as vice president, looks to be the most logical solution of the problem before the National Republican convention. The Indiana men there would gladly vote their pledges in the face of sure defeat, as the situation now indicates, but if Fairbanks, with his conservative policies and growing popularity throughout the country, were named as Taft's running mate, they hold that the ticket would be stronger than if Dolliver or another of the men more prominently mentioned, were chosen. There should be no compunction on the part of Fairbanks in regard to his acceptance. As a public man his dutv is clearly defined. If the Indiana delegation should arrange such a compromise as would accomplish this result, then the vice president should allow his name on the ticket a second time and receive the approval of the voters of the country for his action.

HA! HA! Uncle Joe Cannon with a stogie in his teeth, carrying a congressional record similar to the interior of a washer, is in Chicago requesting national delegates to make him the Republican nominee and therefore the next president of the United States. It's a joke. MIND AND MUCCLC. Influence of Former Ipon the Letter Plainly to Be Seen. In all feats of skill the influence of the mind is most important. To perform in thoroughly good style any difficult feat of skill it is absolutely necessary that the rnind must be free from fear, anxiety or nervousness. I knew once, years ago, a man who had bten a bulltighter in Spain. During one of his glowing accounts of the sport I expressed my surprise that he should have left the life. His reply was: "One day I was about to enter the ring and I bad a little creepy feeling of fear. Then I stopped for good. The man who feels fear is sure to be killed." And it is equally true that the man who fears is heavily handicapped, no matter what the contest may be. Anxiety and nervousness are closely akin to fear, and both are so powerful in their effect as to render it almost impossible for one to perform perfectly any difficult or delicate feat of skill. The man who is afraid or anxious or nervous is almost sure to fail. All emotions when Intense have a powerful effect on the muscles. This is plainly seen in the tension of the muscles, clinching of hands and arms, as well as of the face, in anger, in the spasmodic breathing of excitement, in the muscular weakness and trembling of fear, and In many other conditions that might be mentioned. Now, In feats of skill of whatever nature, whether balancing, juggling, marksmanship, tumbling or shot putting, it is necessary that Just the right muscles ! must be usd at just the right instant and to just the right degree. When, however, the muscles are disturbed by emotional excitement, such delicate adjustment is impossible and the probable result is failure. The mental state most conducive to success in games of skill is confident calmness. And by practice this state of mind may be made a habit a habit most valuable in all games of skill, even In that game of skill called life. Dr. W. R. C. Latson in Outing. Look For Soap Quality. It's no bargain to buy a big chunk of yellow soap for a few cents, if the bulk and weight are made with rosin and grease; that simply smears things but does not clean them. There is a good pure sort called Easy Task soap which only costs five cents a cake and is the greatest cleanser known. Consult your grocer. MASONIC CALENDAR.

HOPE TO SECURE STATE MEETINGS

EpwortLans to Present City's Claims. The City Cabinet of the Epworth League, at a meeting yesterday afternoon at the Grace M. E. church decided to make an effort to bring the state convention of the league to Richmond next year and a committee consisting of the Rev. J. O. Wade, O. F. Waid, Raymond Wehrley, Mrs. Pat tee and Mr. Thompson, was chosen to make the necessary arrangements. The convention this year is to be held at Winona and the Richmond delegation will .go to the meeting with a campaign laid out to secure the honor for this city. If possible, the Chautauqua ground will be secured and the convention held there immediately prior to the opening of the Chautauqua in 1909. AZTEC ARCHITECTURE. Wonderful Rndiirnnce of th Old Mexican Dailillnsrs. The Mexicans or tbe Aztec Indians can give the people of the United States lessons in architecture and in solid construction of buildings. There are buildings standing today in the City of Mexico that have stood for three centuries and are in c.n excellent state of preservation. There is not a frame buildiug in the city. There are a few adobe, but most all are stone, brick or cement. There is a brick building down in the old part of the town that was erected prior to 1450. It shows that so long ago as that the Indians were experts in the manufacture of bricks. Hut probably 80 per cent of all the buildings are made of concrete cement. C'emeut and concrete have been used successfully in Mexico for 500 years, and all the cathedrals i and churches are of that material. On the line of the Vera Cruz Pacific can be seen the ruins of Toro Bravo, where there are evidences of a city ruined centuries ago. There are some twenty pyramids of solid cement which must have been erected over 500 years ago. One of these pyramids is 170 feet in height, and on the summit rests a cement ledge thirty feet in diameter. This, as well as others, is of filigree work and carved statuary. Near this stands another of white limestone, built in four terraces, with carvings and ornamentations which would put to shame the modern ican sculptor. It has stood all these centuries, yet the limestone is much easier broken than the cement. Think of a town of almost 400,000 persons, and the fire record is three in one year. The inside walls of many of the buildings are as much ns six feet through, and all buildings are built around courts. There is no provision in any of them for fires, and at the present time small coal oil stoves are selling in tbe city for $20 the same that seil for $3 in the states. The floors are of stone, the ceilings of filigree cement, tbe walls of coarse plaster and almost without exception hand painted. The architecture on many buildings in the republic shows thn.t the Indian of centuries ago was ahead of the modern builder of today. Ilobart .News He publican. REFRIGERATOR RULES.

can be accommodated. This is much j more economical than to buy small; ones. j Be careful not to fill dishes too full so that thev will snill over. If anything Is spilled, don't fail to wipe it up immediately. Tack the ice well together and do not wrap it in paper or cloths; Instead, keep the door of the ice chamber shut as much as possible. Do not put food of any sort directly on the ice. If it is absolutely necessary to place is near the ice, see that it is in glass or porcelain. Empty the refrigerstar at least once a week; scrub the interior thoroughly, then 6cald the ice chamber and drainpipe with boiling water in which a lump of soda has been dissolved; follow this with clear boiling water; wipe 4(7 sad Jft it air for, twenty minutes.

JOINS HIS AT HOME Man Pardoned by Governor Willson Saturday Reaches Lexington. MANY CONGRATULATIONS. THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE VISIT HIM IN PERSON AND OTHERS SEND MESSAGES BY TELEGRAPH MOTH ER IS HAPPY. Lexington, Ky., June 13. Backward, turn backward, 'O Time in thy flight; Make me a child again just for tonight. Caleb Powers, thrice conviciv-d of complicity in . the assassination of Goebel and twice sentenced to the gallows, only to be ultimately pardoned by Governor Willson, was a child again, last night, in the arms of mother. Rushing through the crowd that cheered him as he alighted from the train, and ignoring the braying of a brass band, the freed man hurried to the outskirts of the town, his eyes seeing only one thing ahead a small cottage and his mind thinking only one thing mother. Ten minutes after he had burst open the door to the humble abode, Powers was sitting at the kitchen table eating a luncheon which 'mother" had prepared. The feeble little woman hovered over him, kissing his cheeks and hair. And sympathetic neighbors, who had borne the woman j up during the long years of her son's trouble, and who were at the house to greet him, withdrew and left them together, for all the world loves a lover, and who in Kentucky does not put the mother-love ahead of any other? Public Reception Held. A public reception was held at the ; little home later, and fully 5,000 peo- ! pie called to congratulate Powers on I his freedom. Thousands of telegrams ' have come from all over the country I congratulating him. Some of them ! Hskpd him to namp his nricp for Ipo. tures but tQ them a he hag ftn. swered that he will not lecture.

j Indiana Chautauqua Assembly, but j thjs too wi, be decllned. Hundreds of the telegrams came from Indiana, where great interest was given the case because of the presence in that state of ex-Govemor Taylor. Powers says he will remain at Barbourville quietly until September, when he will open a law office. A large number of Republicans desired Powers to go to Chicago this week to attend the national convention, but he declined, realizing that this might place him in a false position. Many congratulatory telegrams have come from Democrats over the state, and upon all sides is expressed the hope that the pardons mean that the ill results of the Goebel troubles are over. It was stated that James Howard would be rearrested, if he went back to Clay county, on the charge of murdering George Baker. Howard was on his way to surrender for this killing killing Goebel. so he surrendered for the Goebel murder. It is learned, however, that the old indictment will not e revived, Henry Youtsey. in the Frankfort Penitentiary, reiterates his story that Powers and Howard are guilty. He believes an attempt will be made to have him paroled. At Catlettsburg, Ky., last night Charles Lee shot a colored man to death and fatally woimded two other men during a quarrel over the pardons.
