', -r Beverly, Msss., Aug. . 29 President Taft is fighting'for a second term and what he believes . are. the "bereditry policies" of his partf . . Today t Bev erly a policy of "no visitors wanted" went into effect and it was gives out that the President was going' to f est for two weeks. Hie . rest, however,, wijljongist of mixing .thejjrar paint preparatory to carrying tETstruggle ' into the enemy's country" in the Mid dle and Northwest. For the first time since he was nomi nated at Chicago, Taft is in a warlike mood. When he threw the gage of battle down to the Republican progres sive and Democrats in hi speech of Saturday it was preliminary to lyddite and ehrapnell in a "swing around the circle" to be begun September 16 tin Prom then until October 31 Taft will be in the open, lining up his own followers for the struggle of the next year and doing his best to draw away the sup port the La Follette Bourne organiza ti n now enjoys. The following is an amended program from the President's "swing;" Leaves Beverly September 15; reach es Washington October 31. Has eliminated all Southern points. Expects three tickets in the field. Tariff, reciprocity, conservation, cur rency reform and arbitration to be chief topics. As evidence of his warlike intentions it is admitted that the proposed visit to Tennessee, planned long ago, has been abandoned. ' The time allotted to it will be spent in Michigan, where a progres sive movement to capture the delegates to the next Republican National Con vention has been launched. The Re publicans in the Atlantic Coast States and New England, as well as the South are safe for Taft, the President and his advisers privately believe. He will have thoir delegates and the regu'ar organization in those States is in con trol, But the Middle West and Pacific Coast are debatable ground' today not alone for delegates, but for the vote in November of next year, Sime of the State have the direct primary plan de veloped to such an extent that the de legates to the national conventions will be instructed by the voters. Therefore Taft feels that it behooves him person ally to explain his views to the voters. Board of Education. Adopts Public - " School Text Book to Be TJsed H. ;' next. Five Year ; .- Raleigh, N. C. Aug- 29 The State Board ct Education signed up and per fected the book eontracta in connection with the adaption of textbooks for 'the public schools for the next five years wfih the understanding that' for the present the old system for distributing the book to local dealers without any central State depository wilj ie' follow ed. The Stats Department of Educa tion is anxfons to inaugurate the cen tral State depository system, but ad mits that it will take time to do this. Under, the present system the book publishers have direct dealings with 400 or more local dealers. The books have to reach t he children at special prices without regard to whatever profits the "middle men" get between the pub' lisbdr and the consumer.

During the past few days they have been mak ing a quiet investigation in regard to these putty gamblers and the result qp to the present time is that f oqr of them were brought fnto court yesterday af ternoon and bound over to the next tjrm of Superior court This activity on the part of the officers will doubtless have the effect of causing them to cease operations. . The tearing down of the unsightly billboard that was located for several years on the eastern side of the marks Icet building on the corner of Middle and Pollock streets and the repainting of the walls show how much the abolish ment of a bill board will improve the sppesrancs of any building or locality on or near which it s located.

Washington, Auii T 29. From the swamps of Ooalow county. North Caro lina, ha? -come forth a legal problem for too uoueu owiei supreme uurt to pass upon when it convenes in October that may affect bankrupts in all parts of the country for years to com p. bnorn of legal phraseology, the question . "When is a thing concealed?" John L. James was a storekeeper in Onslow County previous to February 28. 19i'8, when a petition of involuntary bankruptcy was filed against him. Noth ing unusual dnve loped until James ask ed for bis discharge- from bankruptcy. Just four months and three days before the bankruptcy- petition was filed a- gainst him, he had been charged with hiding in a swamp in Onslow County five caddies of tobacco, one case of gun shells, two trunkB of shoes and , some dry goods, with intent to defraud ' is creditors. . The law would not grant his dischai t at any time subsequent to the fi st day of the four, months, immediat ly preceeding the filing of the petition e had "concealed" any of his property with fraudulent intent toward '"is credit ors. The Circuit Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit decided that although the goods were placed in the swamp three days more than four months be fore the prescribed time, there wad "continuous concealig" because without further action by James, the offense re peated itself every day until he disclos ed the hiding plaee, which was alleged to have been January 5, 1908. It is said the Supreme Court never has passed on the question of whether there is such an offense within the meaning of the kankruptcy laws, as a continuous concealing."
