MMM M f MMMMMM "111 T1 - - ' lari stakes all on k. W & ' -' -JW" Roller. Baltimore Snn. Taft organs which have some regard for their reputation m newspapers have stopped bluff ing. The New York Tribune's Sunday table gives Roosevelt 458 i delegates certain Taft on ly 439. with HO sen- ously contested or unassigned. According to the Tiibune's own showing, Taft must get practi- cany an tne douottui and cor tested delegates to win, as 540 is the number required. The New York Herald give Roosevelt 452 and Taft 488, including all re garded as "favorable" to the President The New York Sun persists in recording 526 for Taft but agrees with the Tribune that Roosevelt has 458. The Sun puts down as "unclassified" 8 from Massachusetts and 18 from Tex as, which are by right Roose velt's. Only 22 delegates are to be elected. "T. R " is certain to get the 10 from South Dakota, and if the local politicians at tempt to trick him out of the 6 delegates-at-large from Ohio he will raise a row that can be heard from Maine to Texas. Adding 16 of the delegates to be elected this week to the 458 conceded him, Roosevelt will have 474 sure. Conflicting claims make rival campaign managers assertions so unreliable that the Brooklvn Eagle has made an independent canvass of each State with the following result: Total uncontested for Taft 371 Total uncontested for Roosevelt 429 Contested by Taft 38 Contested by Roosevelt 175 Scattering and to be elected 70 Total delegates to convention 1,078 The National Committee will have to settle contests affecting more than zuu seats, it the comrmiiJM en decide eveiy ixtiiJ est in favor of Taft, they might scrape up 540 for the President.

Mr. Wade Wishart, listtaker for Lumberton township, says that the notice he had in a re cent issue of The Robesonian about listing tazes was the most effective bit of advertising he ever saw and that this township is pretty well listed; but there are some who have not listed yet and tnougn everybody is supposed to list by June 1 Mr. Wishart will be in the auditor's office at the court house for a few days, And this is a gentle hint for those who have put it off to come up at once.
