LINCOLN. Neb., Feb. ti.-Speclal.-Present probabilities are that the execu tive committee of the Tall league and Taft supporters In Nebraaka sill be called to Lincoln the latter part of thla week for a conference made necessary by tltc nea- element Injectd into the campaign by the avoaed candidacy ot Colonel Roosevelt. Secretary Currle of the Taft league ssys that someone must be financing the Roosevelt campaign In this state for he has a letter from a prominent Taft editor in which he saya that lie haa been writ ten by John U. Yelser that the latter waa prepared to assist financially those editor who assisted In th Roosevelt campaign. Concerning Jlr. lioosevelt's announce ment Mr. Currl said: The announcement of Colonel Roosevelt waa neither a surprise nor a disappoint' ment to me. The Tsft campaign In this state has been conducted from the be. gnnlng quite Independently of what Colo net Roosevelt or any other candidate might so or do. The republican party Is Winter, wiser and has greater responsi bility than any individual. No Individual Is alwolutrly necessary to Its success. The party must so before tlte people of the I'nlted Stales In November, aaking for their franchise, not because Taft's or I a Vollette's or Roosevelt's nsme Is at the head of the ticket, but upon Its record. If Rooaevelt Is nominated In the Chicago convention It means of course that Taft and his administration are discredited snd disapproved by the republican party. We cannot discredit one and approve the other . Thev must stand together or fall t together. We cannot ae pa rale one from f the other. It would be Indeed anamolous If a party which ha discredited Its can action and repudiated its o-n conduct could go before the people with any hope of success. The announcement of Colrmel Roosevelt has not added to nor taken from the strength of the Tsft forces In Nebraska. I can see no reason why they should modify or change their course. The atti tude of the colonel In his sphlnsllk sil ence before his announcement wss just as damaging to Taft aa his present attitude. It has not changed the situation. . sT t ' w-r w larger Acreage at Sasar Beela. BUTHERLAND.Neb.. Feb.

An intelligent selection of food means less waste, smaller grocery bills, better health, better nourished bodies. The least nutritious foods are often the most expensive.
