And President Taft is look ing forward to his visit to Fond du Lac in the state of Wisconsin with an Interest greater than that felt In any other city on hi* 13,000 mile itinerary. The Indications are that ther« will be a big time in Fond du Lac on Taft/ day, October 26. For a while it looked as though the gates of the city were to be closed against the chief execu tlve of the nation all because they thought it was Oskosh when it really was Appleton that wanted to be treat ed a little more liberally In the. di vision of the president’s time on a busy October day In the%ome state of Sen ator LaFolIette, a rival candidate for the presidential nominaticn In 1912. In order to give Appleton little more equitable treatment, it was necessary to cut down some of the time allotter to Fund du Lac. This catused the storm clouds to lower and. while the empest raged the telegraph wires were kept hot with messages, which chased the presidential train all the way from Cheyenne to the Pacific coast. The mayor of Fond du Lac announc ed that if Fund du Lac could not have Mr. Taft for two hours and a half they did not want him at all. The announcement had been made from Fund du Lac several days ago that the city would withdraw its In- vlUtlon to the president and would re fuse to entertain him, the entire offl clal correspondence by telegraph was given out here to mike the situation entirely clear. It begins with the following telegram by Mayor Frank J. WoUf of Fund du Lac to Secretary Hllles on the presi dential train at Cheyenne: Tn&dc ©liborftt© ments for the president’s visit to Fund du Lac. We are advised that our time is to be divided with Oshkosh and other potntg in the Poi river valley We would like to know deflniteljr the time allotted to Fund du Lac. It will require two and a half hours to carry out the program and arrangements To this the secretary to the presi dent replied: , „ j “Telgram received. Railroads had ffivAn only ten minutes to Appleton, one hour and forty minutes to Oshkosh and two attd \ halt tours to Fond du Lac This was an error. Appleton was to have had one hour and ten minutes.
