TAFT'S GREATER STRENGTH Made Better Showing Than Teddy in Presidential Campaigns Reading so much about ex-President Roosevelt's popularity as a vote getter, a well-known statistician took the trouble to take down his political almanac and compile some figures, taking the figures on Roosevelt and Taft in comparison. The figures for Roosevelt were taken from the 1904 election when he ran against Parker, confessedly the weakest candidate the democrats ever nominated; the figures for Taft were taken from the election of 1908 when he ran against Bryan, confessedly the strongest candidate the democrats ever nominated. The statistician says: Some of the western governors think Mr. Roosevelt is a very wonderful vote-getter, but is he? The records do not sustain their theory, in spite of Mr. Roosevelt's unprecedented popularity in 1904. Even Stubbs of Kansas would doubtless admit that the coming presidential election will be decided in the states of New York, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri.

MILLINERY OPEN MARCH 22 AND 23 Some of the western governors think Mr. Roosevelt is a very wonderful vote-getter, but is he? The records do not sustain their theory, in spite of Mr. Roosevelt's unprecedented popularity in 1904. Even Stubbs of Kansas would doubtless admit that the coming presidential election will be decided in the states of New York, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri. In 1904, Roosevelt polled 859,513 votes in New York; in 1908 Taft polled 870,070. In 1904, Roosevelt polled 600,009 votes in Ohio; in 1908 Taft polled 572,312. In 1904, Roosevelt polled 368,289 votes in Indiana; in 1908 Taft polled 348,993. In 1904, Roosevelt polled 632,645 votes in Illinois; in 1908 Taft polled 629,929. In 1904, Roosevelt polled 321,449 votes in Missouri; in 1908 Taft polled 347,203. Taking these five states together, Roosevelt polled 2,781,991 votes, to Taft's 2,769,507, a difference in Mr. Roosevelt's favor of only 12,484. Mr. Roosevelt, however, was running against Judge Parker, who proved to be the weakest candidate the democrats ever nominated for president. Mr. Taft was running against Mr. Bryan, who polled more votes than were ever before cast for a democratic presidential candidate. In the five states referred to Mr. Bryan in 1900 had polled 2,313,825 votes, but Judge Parker four years later polled only 1,926,918, showing that 386,917 democrats in these states who supported Mr. Bryan in 1900 refused to support Judge Parker in 1904. Yet with this tremendous advantage in opponents, Mr. Roosevelt in 1904 received only 12,434 more votes than did Mr. Taft in 1908. What then, becomes of Mr. Roosevelt's fabulous political strength?

KATZENJAMMERS ARE COMING Ebell Ladies Preparing Entertainment After Easter The ladies of the Ebell club have engaged Mrs. Clara Louise Payne of Los Angeles to produce her musical comedy, the "Katzenjammer Picnic". Mrs. Payne has given this play in most of the cities of the coast, and wherever it has been given it has been greeted with crowded houses. It is very laughable and you can be assured of having an evening of great fun. It is of the highest order—there is not a line in the play that the most fastidious would object to. Committees have been chosen and together with Mrs. Payne they have laid out a plan of work; the cast is being selected. It will contain names familiar to you all. The dialogue of the piece is bright and sparkling, there is something doing every minute. You will get your money's worth twice over. Over a hundred people are required to give the Katzenjammer picnic and in their different costumes ANAHEIM GAZETTE IN AND ABOUT THE CITY Mrs. A. L.

Compare it to “Home Builders” record. Last year the revenue from interest alone was $83,076.29, while the four cash dividends paid amounted to $75,846.43, leaving a balance of $7229.86 to go with the other balance of net profits which was added to the surplus fund. Here’s what it means—“Home Builders” could stop building houses, stop selling stock, “draw in its horns,” so to speak, and its interest on the more than a million dollars invested in deeds, mortgages, contracts, stocks and bonds would keep right on paying the present 17 per cent cash dividend (on par) to every one of its stockholders. You cannot place a higher standard upon an institution than this. It refutes every contrary argument you can conjure up against investment in these shares. “Home Builders” is going right along the same conservative, safe and sane course to much greater size and influence. Its field is large. Its opportunities are many, but, whether it be a great big institution or not, it will be sound, and that is the most important thing for you to require when you invest. 129 S.

During their call the lady left the room for a moment and the widower whispered in reproachful tones: "Why have you brought me in here? She is old and ugly and has bad teeth and a squint in her eye." "Oh," said the friend calmly. "You can speak louder. She is deaf too." FLORIDA FLOWER SEED For Northern Homes Who Can Beat this for a Free Offer. I will send half a dozen separate kinds of seeds to anyone who sends a stamp for postage—the Royal Poinciana, a gorgeous, showy plant of fiery red flowers; the Palmetto Palm seed, with its beautiful broad deep cut leaves, and seed of the real Camphor Tree, also of the novel plant called Job's Tears, and Sweet Mignonette, and seed of the Southern Cotton; enough for you and your neighbor, so divide. Cotton bears very large creamy white flowers, soon followed by the equally interesting cotton bolls, a decided addition to house plants. With the seed will come general directions for culture. As the season advances, should any one not be sent, it will be because they are all gone; another sort equally as nice will be sent in its place, anyway, so you will get six varieties of seed. ALICE WARNER, Jacksonville, Florida. Once at an inaugural ball in Washington, D. C., Chauncey Depew was introduced to the reigning belle who was quite a wit and somewhat of a flirt. She handed him her fan and with mock seriousness exclaimed: Of course you could not do anything so frivolous as to flirt a fan. No, he at once retorted, but I can fan a flirt. WHY IS A POTATO?
