Astor arrived yesterday. He did not get in

The GLOBE was right Wednesday morning
in saying that some of the Republican papers
would be sure TO raise the cry of politics in
school management in connection with the
election of Prof. Jordon rs superintendent.
The cry has been raised. and Mayor Winston
is accused of debating every move made by
the board of education. Now won't the
journal please blame Mayor Winston be-
cause real estate doesn't boom and the Mis-
Bissippi river does not flow the other way?
And while you are about it. gentle Mistress

Gillian war scare, the Behring sea difficulty.

the prevalence of whoOping cough and
measles among children.

yesterday morning of the meeting of the Re-
publican moguls in Minneapolis began with

presumably Republicans from the text, wan

Eingularly appropriate and expressive,
Today is All Fools Day, and among the
curiosiIies that will be placed on exhibition
in nonOr of the time are: Superintendent of
Police Henderson's horse, the pump investi-

that Police Surgeon Gibson may become

A well known restaurant man remarked, in
referring TO the Republican banquet of the
