are beginning to recognize the fact that the
new office Of Controller offers fine oppor
tunity to the convention to strengthen the
ticket, as well as to weaken it, and when the
nominating body reaches that stage of its
business where it must begin to look around

one who is not seeking the office and nom.

1t is easier for a camel to go through the
eye of a needle than for a politician to serve
two masters aud please them both.
Chairman Litsch proved that he was un
equal to the task of presiding over his com
