his unconstitutional views; second, be- ' cause he would deprive us of our Judiciary powers; and third, because he had two terms, and-that is enough for any man. "Washington thought two terms enough, Jefefrson did, Jackson did, 'Lincoln did, McKinley did, and Roosevelt did, in , 1904 and 1908, when he commended me to you in such glowing terms of eulogy, that I blush now when I recall them. ' "Now I appeal from Theodore. He -was wiser then than he is now. "Roosevelt said at Cleveland ' last Saturday night that he proposed to get the nomination. He says that the nomination is his belongs to him. f Roosevelt says that I am the Republican party and also the Republican organization.' Do not intoxicate him

with that power which comes from the .conferring of an honor on him which )has been denied every man who has Jf Hied the presidential chair before jhim, no difference what previous presidents may have done for the country. "I do not speak of Roosevelt to ridicule him -when I quote what he said in his Cleveland speech. It is only to .show what he says and what he believes. What Theodore Says. "Theodore jsays that the 'people want me because I am necessary for fthe Job.' If hewere re-elected, to hear Jhim talk, one would think that he would make the poor reasonably rich nd the rich reasonably poor. This is a big job for a president to undertake In a single term and he will find that it takes more than one term in which :to do it. We will then have to pray that .his life may 'be spared in order to enable him to carry out the things that he still wants to do, and so thaft we may nominate him term after term.

"During his two terms as president, Mr. Roosevelt bosses flourished in Washington like- green bay trees. He now says he wiQl exterminate them. But the president' of the United States has nothing to do with bosses. I'm against them as much as Roosevelt is, despite what your wild and fanatic fellow townsman, Col. Foulke, has said against me. It's up to the people to make and dethrone bosses. When a president of the country "butts in" on this matter the people will tell him to 'mind his own business and we will mind ours. "Roosevelt says he will get into the ."White House again and that he will kill the bosses. If he does get in just put your finger to your nose and think

SPOKE AT HAMILTON. HAMILTON, O., May 20. Smiling jovially and apparently confident of the verdict which Ohio will render tomorrow in the presidential primaries President Taft today wound up the campaign in his home state. Leaving Cincinnati early this morning he made his first speech here, holding up his

administration as one conducted in the interests of the people and assailing Theodore Roosevelt. Today's program called for other speeches at Eaton, Greenville, Piqua, Troy, Tippecanoe, Dayton and Xenia, closing finally at Dayton tonight on his return to that city. President Taft in his speech here made manifest that the last day of the campaign would be as telling as he could make it. He charged that the Colonel created government commissions whenever he wanted to without regard to law, and then cited some statements of the colonel, which he termed, "inaccuracies of memory." "When he (Col. Roosevelt) thought

it was necessary without any authority of law, he would appoint a commission," said the president. "That commission would incur expenses until congress decided it would limit him in that regard, and so, in a bill that was passed before I came into office, a bill

which he signed, the president was forbodden to appoint any more commissions because congress regarded it as an unlawful expenditure of money and not authorized by appropriation."

of the Senate to bring about a contest of Senator Lorimer's seat I wrote him and I invoked his aid in behalf of the same cause, and without any reason to believe that I had changed my position he goes out to Illinois and links my name with Lorimer and says a vote for Taft is a vote for Lorimer. I ask you my friends whether that is a square deal, and whether Abraham Lincoln would have done that. So he complains that I associated with Joe Cannon and with the reactionaries after I had been elected. Well I associated with those who had the votes in Congress in order to enable me to get my legislation through, and that is just what he did, and that is just what he advised me to do."

ADDRESS AT EATON. EATON, O., May 20. President Taft spoke to a crowd of one thousand people from the rear platform of his pri

vate car this morning. The president was well received. He indignantly denied that he was an aristocrat as Col. Roosevelt charged. In part the president said: My friends I am here as I say to fight for constitutional government and I think that Mr. Roosevelt represents antagonism to just such a government. I am opposed to him, first, because of the character of campaign he has made. He has held me up as an aristocrat and an oligarchy, and in favor of government by the few, and he proves it by misquoting one sentence of a speech I delivered at Toledo in which I said this was a government by a representative part of the people, going on to explain that I meant it was by all the voters who do not constitute but one-quarter of all the people, and that the constitution was necessary to preserve the rights of. all. Now with that context before him he gets up and quotes one sentence and says, "There, Taft is in favor of government by the few.He is an aristocrat and I am a democrat, and I am in favor of government by the many." Is that a square deal? Would Abraham Lincoln have done that. He linked my name with Lorimer. He knew, because I had written him, that there was not a man in the United states that has done more outside

Jokai'a Joke. At a banquet held in his honor In Torda. Maurus Jokai was called upon to propose the toast of "The Ladies." He made an excellent speech, during which he continually toyed with the brown curls upon his forehead. Finally he said: "I raise my glass in honor of the gracious ladies of Torda. May they all live until my hair grows gray." His audience drank to the toast, but It was easy to see by the faces of the ladies present that they did not think much of the compliment. Jokai rose again from his seat and took from his head a magnificent brown wig. showing an entirely bald head beneath It. "My hair," he added, "will never grow 'gray." And the ladies, who had not known of his baldness, were more than pacified.

Plant Without Roots. The "flowr of the air" is a curious plant found in China and Japan. It is so called because it appears to have no root and is never fixed to the earth. It twines around a dry tree or sterile rock. Each shoot produces two or three flowers like a lily-white, transparent and odoriferous. It is capable of being transported 600 or 700 miles, and it grows as it travels, suspended on a twig.

Forbts had been taken to his home, it I was found that broken ribs, a broken! Ehoulder bone, and internal injuries he !

received, would probably cause his death. Brusher, suffering from a severe rurture of the intestines, is in a serious condition. Parry was taken to an undertaking establishment. Dispute Over Speed. Fire Chief Miller and his men say the car was going at a rate of about twetify miles an hour at the time of the accident. Witnesses state it was going forty. Thi is the limit of speed for the machine. That Fiedler did not chut off his power after hitting thc huggy occupied by Forbus is alleged by several witnesses. Forbes at his home on Ft. Wayne avenue, is not expected to live through the day and night. Fire Chief Miller is better today and although his right side is bruised, and one rib probably fractured, he is able to walk about. Fielder is bruised but otherwise unhurt. Hammond is bruised and one leg slightly cut. H. Helmich is suffering bruised legs where he was strown to the sidewalk. The truck was badly injured. The radiator is ruined, the ladders, and other top equipment, including the hose basket and top railing are wrecked and the rear step is broken off but can be repaired. The front axle is slightly bent, the body under railings of the car are out of line and bent.

The engine and transmission are believed to be intact. Coroner Pierce is conducting an examination of witnesses of the accident. This morning he stated that future developments would determine whether an arrest would be-made. Who Pays For Damage? V. M. Robinson, of the Robinson Fire Aparatus Manufacturing company appeared before the board of works this morning. The members of the board stated they thought the car should be taken to the Robinson factory and rebuilt free of charge to the city. Robinson demurred, stating that the accident was unavoidable, that Fielder was working- for the city, and that the truck had been accepted by the city and paid for. He promised to meet with the other members of his company and confer "with them in regard to the desire , of the board of works. He states the company will repair and make the machine as good as new for the actual cost to the company. This is the first accident of any importance in which a Robinson truck has figured. The city is not liable for deaths or injuries resulting from the accident stated City Attorney Gardner this morning. He said that fire fighting vehicles have the right of way of the streets. Parry was single, aged 60, and a retired business man residing on North Ninth street. Brusher is married, lives at 245 South West Third street and has two small children. Forbes has been employed by the aMther Bros. Coal company for years. He is married and resides on Ft. Wayne avenue near the North Tenth street park.

GREEN STILL FIGHTS UNDERTAKERS Of course you do not intend to be close in providing for the proper burial of the dead. It is only human to want the departed to have every attention you can bestow. But it doesn't follow that you need be extravagant. On the contrary jour obligation to the living should be considered before you are wasteful in reference to the dead. Therefore, when your undertaker "kindly offers" to make arrangements for cab service, thank him and look after it yourself. He directs your attention to this extortion first, because he knows I will be on hand at once to offer you more reasonable rates. By dealing directly with me, you save the difference between the undertakers' prices, $4.00 and $5.00, and my prices, $3.00 and $3.50, for the same service. Do not let the undertaker persuade you that my drivers are incompetent, my vehicles and horses of inferior quality. They are not. They are the best to be had and you will be convinced by asking any one who has been prudent enough to save the difference between my reasonable charges and the trust prices imposed by those' who pretend to be your friends in time of bereavement. The undertakers have divided this unfair profit with certain liverymen for the past ten years. IT MUST STOP. I will refund your money if the service I render is not .wholly satisfactory.
