that il will advance later. 1t may be
thought good management to delay any

earnings begin to show weekly increases,
or, at least, only Lominal decreases.

mon stock will be put on regular divi-
dend basis some time this fall or winter

there. particularly if the deal with the Bos-
ton Rubber Shoe Company is successfully
completed, and it is understood that this
deal mas been practically accomplished

ton in issue.

A Swift Change.
New York Correspondence Philadelphia Press.

In the twinking of an eye almost, a
change has come in certain political ten
denotes which will seriously affect possi-
bly, destroy, the olitical opportunities cf
two distinguished republicans. By Curl
Gus whim of fate, 1t SO happens that the
unexpected events similarly affect two men,
who, it has been presumed, would become
rivals for the nomination of governor If
this state-the present governor, Frank S.
Black, and Col. Theodore Roosevelt Yes
terday Col. Roosevelt seemed likely to be
named the republican candidate for COVER
ror of the stale, even before the state con-
vention met. Popular feeling was rapidly
crysta'lizing in favor of that act.
The one objection which Roosevelt's S
friends have raised that he would not be
willing to quit active service, even to be-
come governor of New York seemed to
have been removed by the probability OF
the early establishment of peace. The re-
publican leaders and the mass of the party
have been feeling for some time that the
campaign in this state must he chiefly car
ried on upon the great national issues
which the has brought forth. To do
that it was deemed essential that soldier,
some one who had actively fought, should
be named as the candidate for governor,
and Re osevelt seemed to meet the opportu-
nifty better than any other soldier who
went forth from New York state.
Only yesterday afternoon a republican of
much influence in the central part OF the
state, one who has served as senator. and
has been the leader of the organization in
clie ol tne central counties, was IN confer
ence with Senator Platt and Congressman
Odell He told them that in the western
and central part of the state the party was
for making the campaign upon national is
sues, and upon the support of the admins
tration, and that it was thought the part
of expediency to nominate Roosevelt for
governor Senator Platt seemed to be of
that opinion.
This morning that republican made haste
to withdraw that opinion He did it regret
fully, but he did it because he felt certain
that. after the publication of Col. Roose-
velts letter to the Secretary of War it
was Impossible for the republican party to
name him its candidate for governor
or course, the views expressed by Col.
Roosevelt in that letter have created in
tense Indignation on the part of the Ma
1ional Guard of this state, and of all their
friends.
