Evans Building, .1 But His Friends Deny That He Has Practi cally Decided to Quit the Race. The correspondent of the Richmond Times-Dispatch from Washington sends bis paper some interesting observations on the presidential outlook. He says; Secretary Taft's friends deny that he haa practically decided to withdraw from the race for the nomination to the presidency. They will deny It more strenuously in the near future, for the rumor is going to be repeated for some time to come. . It is circulated now in a quiet way. It is being stated qaite generally that the big War Secretary is disgusted. In the first place his health is poor. He has been making determined efforts for about three years to rvduce his flesh. Gluten buscuits is the chief ar ticle of diet in the Taft household so far as the head thereof is concerned. Those who have tried to live on bus cuits of gluten, moistend in water, will not be surprised that he has made up his mind to retire from the struggle for the presidency, or that he has sur rendered most any ambition. Furthermore, there to a nasty fight in progress in Mr. .Taft's own State. Senator Foraker left here today for Ohio, but before starting he made it plain that he would contest every inch of ground against efforts, to send Taft delegates to the Republican national convention. It is admitted that the delegation will be badly divided.1 The Eoraker people claim that they will control the majority ot the delegates from the Buckeye State. Further, although the powerful in fluence of the President has been be hind Secretary Taft from the first, the progress of his campaign has nst been satisfactory. Every time a man ha said Taft somebody has Bhouted the name of some favorite son, or that of Roosevelt. It has been demonstrated that the President could control almost any delegation in the country if he wishes to be nominated himself, but that lie cannot awing any delegation he chooses to the support of such candi date as he may select as his successor. Jt is said that the disapproval of the attempt of the President to name the man who is to succeed him has had about as much . to do with Secretary Taft to get out of the fight as any other one thing has had. The retirement of Secretary Taft would bring the country a long step nearer to the renomination of Theodore Roosevelt. It is not believed that the President would accept the nomination of any one of the Republican candidates who would be left. There is a long distance between the brand of Republi canism exemplified by such a man as I Secretary Taft and that far - which Speaker Cannon, Vice-President fair banks, Philander C. Knox and other "reactionaries," so-called, stand. La Follette holds beliefs somewhat akin to thoce heW by the President and Secre tary Taft. There have been doubts cast upon the sincerity of the Wiscon sin Senator, especially since the term3 of the bargain by which he made Steph enson, the lumber trust magnate, the successor of John C. Spooner in the Senate, became public. There have never been doubts cast upon the per sonal or political honesty of Secretary Taft. ,... : - ' Whether he withdraws or becomes the standard bearer of the Republicans tn ho tiM l national campaign, the f rihnt a f honeatv of purpose and wholesome devotion to the duties of his office must be paid him. It is at least nn even chance that he will withdraw from a fight which was never entirely to his teste. His ambition lies in a di lution onnosite to the White House. Rut Chief Justice Fuller steadfastly Gilmer Mreet. refuses to lay aside the ermine. Should he do so tomorrow there is small doubt that President Roosevelt wouldgcast it upon the shoulders of the Secretary of War : Cl WekHs Ostln'itlc. The Southern Tob. Journal says : This is a quiet season in leaf to bacco and warehouse circles. Deal ers have but bttle tobacco on hand, and they are not w.rrying over thei holdings. Warehousemen ai e doing nothing in others. There in of course the usual speculative discussions as to the next crop. The tobacco plant being a peculiar weed, and q uite tneceptible. to w eather conditions it is all specula tion indeed. There is one pont, however, that all can agree on and that is that under no circumstances can a large yield be made. .With favorble season s front-now until to bacco is housed it is possible to make more pounds than were pro duced lat yar, but there is no danger of more pounds beirg pro duced than there will be an active demand for. From accounts t gathered from various portions of the tobacco world, we are safe in saying that the tobacco business is growing rapidly.'.Tbe consumption is all the- time on the increase, and manufac turers are doing well everywhere. The future for the tobacco tradelooks good to us. Mcctlsf el Mall Carriers. The fourth annual convention of the North Carolina Rural Free Car riers' Association will be held in the city of Durham July 3-4, in Pythian Hall. The preliminary meeting will be held July 3d at 19a. m. At 1 p. ; the convention will be ca'led to order by Acting President Mil.er, Some prominent speaker will ad dress the contention, probably Hon W. R. Spillman, of the Postoffice Department. The Durhnm members are preparing ,o give the visiting delegates a good time, incudmg trolley rides, etc, , and they espec ally invite all the lady carriers-uf the State to attend. 1 rovi&ion will be made for their entertainment free of charge. 1 he secretary of each local association should see to it that all his delega es are provided with proper credentials. A full at tendance is earnest y desired. We all admit that telephones are a great conynience.yet they occasi onally make a man feel like breaking the third commandment Sjine times on a busy work day when rushing and your phone riDgs twenty-eight times and only two rings are of any importance the ther twenty-six being calls from some one" wanting to speak to yovr help, the inquiry being, ;U Miss fin?" This takes two from their work twenty-six times, and some has to pay for all that lost time in addition to the annoy anc. t doesn't look just right, now does it? During working hours, 'phones in biasness houses, a, least, should be used for business only. We stilL, have one or two men n tms community wno stand around on the street corners and from morning until night complain about the town, their neighbors, their taxes and the weather. Such men are mighty common clay atd it is fortunate we have so few of tnetn. Such inen are of no use to the town, their families or their God. They seem to live but no one can tell how. Like moBquitoes and flies, they are not fatal but disa greeable to have about. It is not necessary to publish the names of the two or three who infest this commun ty for you all kno theur The Southern Tobacco Journal says ; The Japanese vJoverment haa been so successful with its tobacc monopoly that it will make vigorow efforts to extend its trade. Special ettv.rt j win ue maae to encourage the growth of more leaf tobacco, while new territory will be iuvndcd with the , manufactured articles, China offers a wide field for the sale oT cigarettes, Japan will no . doubt take advantage of the opportunities offered to extend its tobacoo trade with iher neighbors. In the mean the growth of Japan's trade will mean more of our North Carolina and Virginia tobacco will bo bought by the Governn ment. -a fmfiaw rTe taiiT" Mr. E. W.

A telephone message from Mt Airy says that a squad of revenue officers, consisting 'of 27 men led by two secret service men from "W ashington," . D. C., Wednesday made a big raid and cap tured 13 blockade stills and ten men a shoit distance from Smithtown, in Stokes county, which has been noted neaily half a century for the number of moonshine stills and the extreme boldness and pugnacity of the moon shiners in that section. So bad has been the condition of affairs that reve nue officers have been afraid to go in there and the stills have been doing a thriving lusiness. It is reported that sentinels were maintained by the ma kers of the firewater who gave the moonshiners warning of any approach of officers by a large bell. The raid was begun at 4 a. m. and was not terminated until 5 o'clock in the afternoon, when the captured men and stills were safely lodged at Mt. Airy. The two secret service men who led the squad of officers are said to have come from Washington some weeks ago and since that time have been engaged with the men in the illicit business in order to learu the exact I Ute of affairs and to find out how to capture those engaged in the business. Having learned this, a good supply of rifles was secured from Washington and the raiding squad was organized at Mt. Airy. From that place it marched to Smithtown and at 4 o'clock Wednes day morning the first raid was made, and nearly all day was required before the stills captured were landed at Mt Airy, which is 30 miles from the scene of the raid. A dispatch from Greensboro to the Charlotte Observer last night says that Kevenue Agent, J, H. Surber, in charge of this district, has returned from Mt. Airy, where the alleged illicit dis tillers w.:re given a hearin?. Thev were all held for District court and in default of $1,000 bond required of etch, they were placed in the Surry county jail at Dobso. ; This is considered one of the biggest raids ever made in this State and cleans up one of the most notorious sections of the Blue Ridge mountains. The names of the men held are as follows: J. F. Cardwell, John Young, James I. Griffin, K. D. Williams, John W. Williams, Oscar Williams, Zeb Fraz er, Oscar Smith, Logan Chambers and Green Shelton. The three Wil liams are brothers. s It appears that the raid was led by Mr. Surber and Mr. II. B. Taylor, and not secret Bervice men as reported from Mt. Airy, A hundred shots were fired, but only two men were wounded, these being blockaders, and their wounds are only slight. Hinnrkabl Rrn.
