"Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin •peaks out his opposition to Roose velt, and he is a progressive too — was one before Roosevelt learned to name the word. It would seem that he has no big amount of confidence in T. R.'s professions. Senator Cummins and Committee man against the Cel. Senator Cummins, of lowa, pro . greesive Republican candidate for the presidential nomination at tlio Chicago convention, has formally declared against the new purty movement, led by Theodore Roosevelt, and announced liis al legiance to the old party. He says bosses can't be escaped by organ ising new parties and that indi vidual dishonesty is not the foun dation for a new party. John O. Capers, national com mitteeman from South Carolina, who supported'Koosevolt at Chi cago, will support Taft. He says the steam roller methods at Chica go this year were no worse than four years agoj when Roosevelt had Taft nominated. - Taft's Defeat Inevitable. Blohmond Tlmef tHapatoh, Broken on the wheel of one man's ambition, the Republican party goes to the country with the weakest candidate that it has ever offered to the American people for the presidency. With the white flag of defeat flying at half mast, the party which the groat war swept into almost half a century of uninterrupted control goes down, wrecked on the shoal of internal dissensions and with ita timbers rent by poor leader •hip and unpopular policies. The regular Republicans determined to die by their guns; they would not desert the organization, nor would they in the fhee of a rapid ' ly-widening chasm in the party desert their titular bead. They realized that they stood at Water loo and not at Armageddon. Hoping for resurrection upon some brighter day, they nevertheless named for their' standard-bearer In the coming campaign one whose record, whose personality, whose policies and whose platform at tmet defeat to him as the magnet draws the needle. He cannot command the wave* of progres sivelsm to reoede, and they whe calmly chose him know that he cannot. The old Rspubllcan party was the eteatnre of the interests. It decayed bepause of the corruption ! of degeneracy which always ac company long cases of position and power. It betrayed the peo ple; it exalted privilege, its im perial disregard of the principle* of democracy wrote ita own death . warrant. It lies prostrate and broken and its backbone is shat tered.

( Below we give an account of a J railroad meeting condensed from the Greensboro Daily Record of July 3. * In addition to the board of direc- 1 tors named in the Record, the com- ' pany will, at its meeting of stock- holders and directors called for ' July 17th, elect certain additional ' directors more closely identified with the counties of Alamadce and 1 Chatham, representative business men of these counties. Among ' these members of the Board to be ' elected are Messrs. John Q. Gaut 1 and Will E. White of Alamance. , Messrs. Long & Long have been retained as counsel for the company 1 , in this county and they will pre , pare all necessary details concern- ' ing the preliminary work of town- ] ship subscriptions. On Friday night a meeting of - business men, which was attended 1 by Capt. T. O. Troy and Capt. J. ' • W. Fry, both well known and highly ; responsible rsilroad and business 1 > men, was held in Graham and the : plans and prospects were carefully and fully discussed. The first of this week Capts. Troy and Fry re- 1 turned from a trip through Chatham county. They had conferences with a number of representative business 1 men of that county and in deference to their wishes have sent a corps of engineers back into the field to make farther surveys in the vicinity of 1 Pittsboro. The citizens of the townships through which the road is proposed to be built will be asked to make subscriptions, none of which will be used unloss the promoters put up the amount agreed upon. It should be a very interesting proposition to lots of Alamance peo ple. ' Read-what the Record says: The meeting of the stockholders ' and incorporators of ths Greensboro, ' Roxboro and Norfolk Railway was held in the chamber of commerce rooms this morning at 10 o'clock. This railroad has been fostered by a committee from the chamber of com , merce and a great deal of work has i been dono along proper lines with j out much noise. The office of the r company will be in the chamber of 3 commerce rooms in the McAdoo s building. The stockholders are all Greens l boro men except Mr. T. O.TTroty t i who is to be actively associated with j. the organization. The organization 1 was perfected and such other work I as is necessary will be undertaken . .promptly. u The following officers were elected 1 by the stockholders and directors at ] tbeir'meeting today. r Directors—Messrs.

Troy, presi -0 dent; Mr. J. W. Fry, vice-president a and treasurer; Mr. M. W. Thompson, r secretary. e Mr. Troy is not unknown to many e of our people, being a native of ■ r Randolph county, and having spent 1 the esrlier years of his life "in rail ,t way work in this section. He is now president of the Virginia Airline o Railway, one of the subsidiary lines e to the Cbesapesk and Ohio Railway Company, and president of the a Lynchburg-Danville and Carolina t Railway Company, which has reoent „ ly made an extensive surrey through that section from Danville, through u Caswell, Alamance and Chatham >. counties in this State, touching the important towns of Graham, Bur « lington, and in fact reaohing, it h might be said, nearly all of the d manufacturing interests along Haw t- river. y In connection with Mr. Troy's lu movements, the Greens boro-Roxboro h and Norfolk Company, which has I, !>een so successfully pushed along by ths chamber of commerce com mittee of Greensboro, joined in a d survey of their line, from Greens :e boro to s connection with the Lynch at bu>g-Danville and Carolina at or :e near Hopedale, in Alamance oounty. The result of the efforts of the citi •l xens has finally been to bring to r- gether the interests of the Greens- Mr bt ro-Boxboro and Norfolk Railway a, Company and ths other interests k y 4 | «.

ABtbasehts named, into a coasolidated company under the name of the "Greensboro- Northern and Atlantic Railway ] Company," whose ultimate aim is to occn py' the entire field mapped out by both of these companies, and to im mediately undertake the conatrnction 1 of a railway line of standard m&lern proportion from the City of Greens- 1 boro along Haw river, through the ! counties of Guilford, Alamance, • Chatham and Lee, to a 'connection with the Seaboard Air-Line and the Norfolk Southern Railway. These i are atandard trunk lines of the 1 South; .which would at once be turned into this territory, "here business has grown to such propor tions ss to attract the attention of financial interests. The company hopes, with this much of its line i constructed that it may then be able to extend its line to the Norfolk and Western, at Roxboro, and then to Oxford on the east, and to Danville and thence to the other great eastern and western coal carrying lines of Virginia. The city of Danville is interested in this movement. Mr. Troy who conceived the idea of the Virginia Airline, which occu pies an important zone in the trafic world, and who financed and con structed. the line, is enthusiastic over joining in an undertaking which means so much to his native State. Mr; Troy aaid : "While 1 have been absent from the State engaged in railroad work elsewere for a num ber of years, I} have nevertheless watched with a great deal ol inter eat the growth and development of the cities of Greensboro, Burling ton, Graham, and in fact the entire section contiguous to the system of railways now contemplated, and, while it must not be understood that' the money is now in hsnd to carry on all this work, it is, in my judg ment a most meritorious undertak ing along broad business lines, and one that may be carried along with out prejudice or injury to existing interests or to other lines that may later desire to build into this terri tory." •. There appears to be substantial baais for the hope that in itereeting Mr. Troy and his aaaociates in the line oljailway that waa projected from this city under the name of Greensboro-Roxboro A Norfolk Rail way, Greenaboro may yet realize its long smbition for another railway outlet. Mr. J. W. Fry of thia city who has large experience in the railway and financial world, and Mr. R. C. llood, president of the cham ber of commerce, wiU co-operate to the fullest the conaummation of a new railway into Greenaboro. •It is thought that the citizens of some of the townships in Guilford, Alamance and Chatham counties stand ready to vote a reasonable township subscription to this enter prise, and the company will at once formulate and lay before them plans for doing so. Roosevelt Convention to Meet in Chicago, August 5. New York DMpateh. A call to the people of the Unit ed States who are in sympathy with the National Progressive movement to send delegates to a national convention to open 4n Chicago Aug. 5, was given out this afternoon by Senator Dixon of Montana, the Roosevelt cam paign manager. The. call is sign ed by members of the committee chosen at a meeting held in Chica go and also includee signatures of Roosevelt followers in 40 States. "The Territories have no place in a national convention and will not be oonr Idered" declared Sena to Dixon, in commenting upon the , signatures. "As for the missing eight States, most of them proba bly will send delegates, although they have not taken part in the call. Maine, for instance, post i poned definite action because there is now a strong fight on in , the prlmariee, with the spmpathy i running in favor of the progres > sive movement. Delaware, North Carolina, Arkansas and Nevada , probably will take part In the , convention. Mississippi and South i Carolina may possibly be unrep l resented. "Kech State will be expected to f select Its delegates by ita. own . paraphernalia. The represaata . tion will be ont down to just one r haU of previous convention. Thia was oonaidered advisable sinoe . this convention is to be notably a . deliberative body and will oertain . ly be oompoeed of a class of men , altogether different from those , who usually attend conventions. ■ "In all probability the conven tion will adopt the name •Vatlon. al Progressive' for the new party, Thus far no Issues have been au-. thoritatlvely stated." (Two Democrats signed the call —Judge Ben Lindsay of Colorado and Julian Harris of Georgia, son of the late Joel Chandler Harris.) Miss Liuie Robinson was drown ed a few days ago while bathing in Big Coharrie river, Sampson eounty, with a party of friends. ''. 'ii £, '■ - '' , MRS. TAFT At CONVENTION. President's Wife Attended Baltimore Convention and Heard Her Husband Criticised. Baltimore Bun. Mrs. William Howard Taft, wife of the President of the United Stated, Bat in the private bo* of Mm. Norman E. Mick at the con vention heard many harsh things said about her husband. She laughed several times when the speakers' points were fnnny, bnt there was an expression on her face which seemed to indicate that she had come at the "inop portune moment." Still, when the afternoon ses l sion adjourned and she was asked if she enjoyed her stay, Mrs. Taft said good-naturedly: . "Why I had a very and am used to the little flings which they hurl at my husband. You know, they hate the veto power, these Democrats, and this is their main chance to retaliate." Sitting next to Mrs. Mack, Mrs. Taft was a conspicuous figure, although her presence was not known to many in the audience. She came to Baltimore as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh C. Wallace, the former being a delegate to the convention from the State of .Washington. ' . Those who recognized her watched her closely, as Senator elect Ollie James made his speech as permanent chairman of the convention. Mr. James, With his Kentucky breeding, might not have been so severe upon the President had he known that Mrs. Taft was within the sound of his voice and almost upon the same platform with him. Still nobody told him that she was there, and he prooeeded relentlessly with his attack upon the President and his party. ' Taft said that Roosevelt was a friend of the trusts," said Mr. James, "and Roosevelt said that Taft was a triend of the trusts. I believe that both were right." it was a telling blow, but the element of humor in it brought a smile to the countenance of the "first lady of the land," and Mrs. Mack laughed with her. Both women seemed to appreciate the fact that "anything goes in a con vention and that the ordinary 'conventionalities' are not ob served." As the speech of Chairman James grew more exciting and the crowd appeared to take gi-eat de light in what he said about the President, Mrs. Taft looked a bit nervous. Then to preserve hei composure Bhe laughed outright when the chairman made thie statement: "Teddy said that he was sorry that he had stood sponsor for Taft, as the latter had failed so miser ably. I think the people of thie country do not care anything about his sponsorship and have no faith in it." The vetoing of Democratic measures by the President alsc gave Mr. James an opportunity t say some pretty "plalp" thtngt about the Chief Executive, and he minced no words. Mrs. Mack smiled at Mr. Wallace, who sat ox her right, but she did not dart look at her guest from the White House, who sat on the other side. Detftina Uuol Re Cared.

Eiiward Tilden, president of the National Packing Company, has issued an apology for the high price of meat which sums np about as follows: Increase of popula tion in this country in the last de cade, 21 per cent., or 10,000,000 mouths; decrease in cattle, includ ing milch cows, 2 per cent. More people to feed, therefore, with less meat raised, growth in cities, in crease in farm land used for dairy ing and truck purposes, with less used for cattle-raising; diversion of grain used formerly for feeding cattle to manufacturing cereals.- Mr. Tilden asserts that manipu lation is no longer possible, the demand for cattle being too great and competition too keen, and declares high prices are injurious to packers also, inasmuch as most of their profits are made from by products, and the cost of raw ma terials, of course, increase when meat prices are high. Thus be tween 1899 and 1909 the total value of packers' products in creased 73.5 per cent, while the cost of packers' materials in the same period increased 75.4 per cent. All this is very interesting, and much of it may be true. The statements, however, would carry greater conviction if coming frojn an impartial source. The state ments clearly show that if the number of American cattle is be coming insufficient to feed eco nomically the number of American mouths, then the tariff on meat is out of place and the importation of cattle should be encouraged. But it is greatly to be doubted if these exp'anations really explain the extraordinary advance in the price of meats. The advance evi dently covers a very large profit, and the consumer, as usual, pays for it.

The production of salt in the United States in 1911 was 31,183,- 968 barrels of 280 pounds each, valued at $8,345,692, according to W. C. Phalen, of the Jpniteli-v.

This is an increase compared with 1910 of 878,312 barrels in quantity and $445,348 in value. In addition to the domestic pro duction 1,013,926 barrels of salt was imported. This importation was partly balanced by the ex ports, 349,092 barrels leaving an excess of imports over exports of 665,834 barrels. The United States is amply able, according to Mr. Phalen, to supply all the domestic demands, as the capacity of the ' active mines and plants is largely in excess of the present output.
