At that, it was announced that only a $500 would be required of each. ent schedules, he said lay danger of i business depression and hard times. The Republican principle of revision, only where scientific investigation shows it necessary, marked the straight road to continued prosperity and commercial peace.

In discussing tue tariff, the president said that it was untrue tnat to its door could be traced the high cost of living, and pointed out that conditions of living wrere alike over the world. Regulation of Trusts. As an issue only less important than the tariff the president placed the regulation of trusts. He said the Sherman law had been enforced with success. The president pointed to the record of the Republican party, and particularly during his own administration, as an indication of w'hat it might be expected to do in the future if the people returned it to power.

He attacked the Democrats at other points than the tariff, making special reference to the refusal of that party in the house of representatives to continue the naval policy of two battleships a year. Taft did not mention either Col. Roosevelt or governor Woodrow Wilson by name, but referred to each. While he did not accuse either of embracing the doctrines of Socialism, many of the proposals they had made, the president said, savored of it strongly. know that in this wide country there are many who call themselves Democrats, who view with the same aversion that we Republicans do, the radical proposition of change in our form government that are recklessly advanced to satisfy waat is supposed to be popular said the president.

to Patriotic Men. "There are men who revere the constitution and the institutions of their government with all the love and respect that we could possibly have; men who deprecate disturbance in business conditions and are yearning for that quiet from demagogic agitation which is essential to the enjoyment by the whole people of the great prosperitj which the good crops and the present conditions ought to bring us. them I appeal as to all licans, to join us in an earnest effort to avert the political and economic revolution and business paralysis which Republican defeat will bring about. Such misfortune will fall most heavily on the wage Attacks Agitators. After reviewing the legislative enactments of the Republican party, the president launched into a bitter attack upon responsible for the popular of the present day.

by sensational journalism and unjust and unprincipled muck he said, have seized the opportunity to inflame the public mind that they might turn peculiar conditions to their own In the formation of new parties the president said, these men have promised the satisfaction of unrest by the application of a panacea. In the ultimate analysis, I fear, equal opportunity which those seek who proclaim tlie socalled social justice, involves a forced division of property and that means Socialism. Present Administration Progressive. venture to say there is no national i administration in which more steps ol progress have been taken than in the present one. But as for the millenium, a condition in which the rich are to be made reasonably poor, and the poor reasonably rich by law, we are chasing a phantom; yq are holding out to those whose unrest we fear, a prospect and a dream, a vision of the impossible.

do not say that the two gentlemen who now lead, one the Democratic party and the other the former Republicans have left their party, in their attacks upon existing conditions and in their attempts to satisfy the populists by promises of remedies, are consciously embracing Socialism. The truth is that they do not offer any definite legislation or policy by which the happy conditions they promise are to be brought about, but if their promises mean anything, they lead directly toward the appropriation of what belongs to one man to another. Promises Their Only Stock. truth is, my friends, both those who have left the Republican party and our old opponents, the Democrats, are going in a direction they do not definitely know, toward an end they cannot definitely describe, w'ith but one chief and clear object, and that is of acquiring power for their party by popular support through the promise ot a change for the better. gentlemen purpose to reform the government, whose present defects, if any, are due to the failure of the people to devote as much time as la necessary to their political duties by requiring a political activity by the people three that which thus far the people have been willing to sume."

Four fortune telling gypsies, two men and two women, dropped into Ei Paso about five days ago. They are said to have borne all the signs which should go to make up the genuine fortune telling gypsy. An old Mexican woman living on South El Paso street, Monday, when they called on her, took them for the real thing, and had her fortune told. Before the gypsies could begin operations it is said that a $50 bill was essential.

This the old woman furnished. It was of Mexican currency, but the gvpsies, not being able to secure any other, told her that this would answer the purpose. A glass of water was then required and putting the bill into this, the older of the gypsy women is said to have salaamed over it. The Mexican woman was then informed, it is said, that it was necessary to burn the bill, that the spirit demanded the offering. She objected to this, but the gypsy, heedless of her protestations, apparently rolled the bill into a knot and threw it into the fire.

The spirits were working fine until the daughter of the old woman appeared on the After finding out what the gypsies had done, she demanded the return of the money, or else she would call the officers. The monev had been burned to satisfy the spirit, she was told, but if she was going to call the officers perhaps the spirit could be persuaded to return it. Another glass of water was procured, and after the gypsy had blown three times in the old Mexican face, the bill was found at the bottom of the is claimed. The woman was so impressed by the ceremony, it is said, that she took $10 out of a sack in which she kept tier money and gave it to the gypsies.

It was noted, the officers say. that the gypsies kept an eye on sack. Tuesday the younger gypsy woman.
