Taft Gamemelon Tour Through Denver Stops Ends in Kansas
Taft spoke in Denver after a long cross country campaign stop sequence from Nebraska to Colorado and Wyoming. He attacked Gompers and defended protective tariffs as Democratic missteps while praising beet sugar policy as a trust issue. He later continued to Dodge City and Topeka with a watermelon gag at Ogallala and a brief Colorado leg including Ogallala and Cheyenne. Bryan counters by claiming his third nomination rests on established principles from earlier campaigns.

A Lecture for Him on Courteous Invitations at Home
A bright wife recounts how her husband’s half hearted coffee invitation and cautious social refusals left her tired and hungry. She implores men to invite wives as warmly as they invite male friends and to treat them as cheerfully as fellow club companions. The note cites Mr. Taft as a model of American labor faith and restraint.
