COLONEL INVADES
RENO FOR VOTES
Still Hammering Old Parties as
Having Outlived Their Use
fulness and Grown Vile.
RENO, NEV.. Sept. 14.—Into this
town of divorces came Colonel Roose
velt today to hammer at the two op
posing parties. In a fifteen-minute
stop the ex-president expressed the
opinion that the Democrats and Repub
licans will wake up after election to
find that they have forfeited the confi
dence of the people.
I think they’ll find out that the vot
ers have taken matters in their own
hands instead of putting them in the
hands of the bosses,” said the colonel,
earnestly. "The two old parties are
tottering on their last legs. The Pro
gressives are going to push them over.
"Os course, we may feel sorry that
the old parties have outlived their use
fulness,” the colonel continued. “Our
•rrow will be prompted by regret that
’"° such potent forces have fallen
nto such disrepute. Regret that the
Republican party is dead does not
firing from any desire to see it veri-
It is futile to hope for anything
orth while from the Republican party
any longer.
Because the old parties have gone
beyond hope of usefulness, the Progres
■'■iv. party has sprung up. It’s not a
mere wisp of a party, either, but one
that is going to give the old parties a
"hipping and then start in to give
‘■nothing in the way of government."

New Central Baptist Will Have
a Swimming Pool. Skating
Rrnk, Gymnasium. Etc.
When the new Central Baptist church
is completed, at Whitehall and Cooper
streets, the entire bottom floor of the
$75,000 building will be for young peo
ple and children. In it will be a swim
ming pool, bowling alley, skating rink,
complete gymnasium and other equip
ment for athletic sports.
The plans for the building have been
decided on and workmen will begin its
construction within the next few days.
“Our church will be the only one of
its kind in the South." said Dr. C. A.
Ridley, pastor today. “Besides the op
portunities for amusement we will give
every member of the Sunday school, we
are going to arrange a special parlor
for the Boy Scouts and one for the
girls."
Every arrangement has been made
for the convenience of the young peo
ple. Shower baths, private lockers,
and many other inviting features are
included in the plans.
The decision to erect a church to ap
peal to children came after several
months of consideration by Dr. Ridley
and others of the church.
Several months ago the idea of work
ing for their enjoyment was first put
into practice in a material way. at the
present building, Garnett and Forsyth
streets, and now over 200 children
gather at the church daily.
A. K. Hawkes, president of the A. K.
Hawkes Optical Company, and other
Atlanta men became interested in the
plans, and have contributed several
hundred dollars to aid in the work.

little girl, too. who can get an Indian
suit, has one eti today and is re-enact

In order to encourage the children to
take further interest in the stories, the
rooms in the children's department of

MORMONS STRONG AND
PRESIDENT TAFT WEAK,
Al FRED H. LEWIS SHOWS
By ALFRED HENHY LEWIS.
NEW YORK, Sept. 14. -Yesterday I
receiv' d a l> tier from a bad tempered
ti bnd of >1 ■ . Taft. The bn 1 tempered
one c-'inpl.lined that I recently -an I
greatly misstated a Mormon impor
tance in politics. Also, lie said, that I
as urging the 5i,.."-.-." of Mr. Roose
velt throiicii sh-tii st st: -ss of friend
ship and not from an anxiety to serve
the publie good.
In !• t urn I mu . sac that my per
fervid corre-I,undent's information as
to both the Mormons and myself is as
bad ns his tempi r. My friendship for
Mr. Roosevelt is public rath-r than
plicate, political rathei than personal
As a matter of friendly fact, I haven’t
spoken to .Mr, Roosevelt hut once in
five years. I write these articles for
the double reason that the Hearst
lev. .--pap is. in their libeial fairness,
pc.mit me the use of their columns,
and I feel that a Roosev.lt in the white
house is tlie crying mid of the hour.
Likewise. I im willing another Roose
veltism to pull at least my weight on
the popular rope.
Mr. Taft?
How can one who knows public con
ditions giv«- him his support ? His heel
has been found weaker titan the ser
pent's head. It was or the Tafts and
their Wool bill vetoes and such like
trinketty of government that the
prophet was thinking when lie said:
"Thy primes ate rebellious anil com
panions of thieves: every one loveth
gift: . 'a! f ill v. tii after rewards; they
judge not the fatherless, neither doth
tin- cause nf the widow come unto
them." I have the Bible on my side
whin 1 t ■ fuse to champion Mr. Taft.
The Mormon Feeling.
\iid now as to a Mormon strength
and a Mormon feeling; ’l'.iking feeling
first. What -aid Brigham Young in
the dass when old .be Smith leigned
supreme as Prophet" Said Brigham -
and it's tlie Church word now as
strongly as when lie uttered it:
'"t he first principle of our cause and
work is Io understate! that there is a
prophet in the Church, lb- is at the
head of tin- chi• h. Who called Jo
seph Smith t" I"- .i p:' pilot God. and.
not the people. Had the people ap
pointed a prophet lie would have been
aeeount a tile to III'- people. But, Inas
much .< In- was elided by God, lie is
aee intalili' only to God, and not t"
any man on earth We, the twelve
apostles. ar. accountable to the
prophet
Thein vou iiuii thv Mormon feeling
toward the prophet. Now, consider the
Mormon feeling toward the United
States, as expounded by Apostle Orson
Pratt. Said that mighty Mormon
teacher —and his precepts are taught as
pare -I of the modern Mormon lesson:
"The Kingdom of God (the Mormon
Church) is an order of government es
tablished by divine authority. It Is the
only legal government that can exist.
All other governments are illegal and
unauthorized. God. haying made all
beings and worlds, has the supheme
right to govern them by His own laws,
and by officers of His own appointment.
Any people attempting to govern them
selves by laws of their own making,
and by officers of their own appoint
ment. are In direct rebellion against
the Kingdom of God.”
You have been given above some pic
ture of the feeling of the Mormon viper
on the national hearth; take a look at
it now for its size and ponderous power
in polities. A Mormon is never an
American, and always a Mormon. Ev
ery Mormon owes allegiance not to the
country, but to Prophet Smith. It 1s
the Mormon boast that the Church can
turn eight states inside out in any given
political week.
The Fate of Dubois.
When Mormon Smoot was on trial
before the senate the Issue fairly stated
lead: "Shall Mormon Smoot be un
seated?” Upon that Issue how did sen
ators—living politically within the
Mormon shadow—vote? Take the roll
call for California, Oregon. Washlng-
1 ton. Montana, Idaho. Wyoming. Ne
vada, Colorado and Utah. But two
1 senators in all that great solid region.
’ almost If not quite in area a third ot
the country, voted to unseat Mormon
Smoot. These were Mr. Dubois, of
Idaho, and Mr. New lands, of Nevada
' Three senators dodged. Tne others
; from the states named voted to keep
i Mormon Smoot in his place. He Is still
I there, while Mr. Dubois, who prose
cuted him, was beaten for re-election
as senator.
' In counselling you not to vote for
Mr. Taft [ am not blaming Mr. Taft.
I His yielding to the Mormon Church,
t like his surrender to criminal privilege
In the instance of the Payne-Aldrich
tariff and later in his vetoes of the
Wool and Farmers’ Free List bills, is
by a law of his nature. Mr. Taft Is
morally and mentally lazy. His moral
, mental attitude is of slipper and dress
ing gown kind. He will accept an
other's conclusions rather than face the
work of constructing conclusions nf his
own He possesses continually a dis
like for exertion. He is Incapable of
doing anything he can't dw sitting
don n. He can get angry, bur he can’t
get up. All of which unfits him fur a
4 presidency.
