A German Boomer Abroad.

This in a special Wednesday from Indian
apolis to The Star suggests that the Ohio
custodian of the German boom is hardly
the right man for the business:
Congressman Norton of the thirteenth
district of Ohio is here in consultation
with National Democratic Commit teemau
Thomas Taggart in the interest of the
democratic presidential candidacy of Ar
thur Iue German. Mr.. Norton declared
after talking with Taggart that German
would he nominated. and that the Ohio and
Indiana delegations would be for him.
H"rinan Is the strongest man in the
democratic party today said Norton and
Will make Il good presidential candidate
and President. In my Judgment there is no
more able man in the country today
How about Tom Johnson and Ohio?'
was asked.
"'Y,S we have Tom johnson with all of
his GItt"ring nonsense. | shall not be sur
prised II he is nominated for governor and
II his friends get hold of the state conven-
ton | expect them To secure an indorsc-
ment of him for United States senator
also think that lie is likely to be a candi-
date for the presidential nomina ton"
In the first place. why have spoken disre-
spectfully of Mr.. Johnson? The travelling
boomer should be diplomat. In crying up
his own man he should avoid any express
sion that might sound like crying down
anothcr's man. Mr.. Johnson is n political
faddiSt. but ne has some friends and their
support next year may be of value. II their
favorite should himself not be in the ring

friends of other candidates. But they can
not be attracted to Mr.. German If his lieu
tenants are to slur Mr.. Johnson as a
crank.
In the second place. If Mr.. johnson runs
for governor of Ohio this fall the demo-
cratic convention will not instruct for him
for United States senator. Should he run
for governor and be defeated. but his party
be successful in capturing the Legislature.
he might then become senatorial guam
tity. And why does Mr.. Norton admit Mr..
Johnson's power in Ohio and the likelihood

The Parker Campaign.

Henry Watterson pays his compliments
to distinguished New Yorker in these
terms:
The course of Judge Alton Brooke Par
ker in resolutely declining to lend himself
to the movement to make him the demo-
cratic nominee for President in 1904 has
been the occasion of merited commenda-
ton from end of the country to the
other Nothing could more clearly indicate
Judge Parkers fitness for high office. He
is the chief justice of the court of appeals
of the state of New York: though. If he sat
upon a lower seat the obligation would be
the same. That obligation stated briefly
and broadly. is. as it We're, to keep the
ermine off the ground
The lesson should impress itself not only
upon every judge in the land. but upon the
people we'll: for. if there be one danger

signs of the times. it is the tendency of the
courts Of law to forget the noble nature
and the venerable claims of their calling.
its relation to justice and truth, it's duty
alike to God and to the state.
This evidently was not intended for sar-
cas:u. and yet what are the facts?
The movement to make Judge Parker the
democratic candidate for President next
year is in the hands of very capable men.
They are his personal friends. They have
his confidence. and ne has theirs. They see
in him the qualities that go to make a
strong political leader. His only draw
back. they consider. is the fact that he
is personally stranger to the leaders of
the party outside of his own state. They
do not doubt that a wider acquaintance
would bring him into very liberal meas
ure of favor. and thus pave the way for his
nomination.
Hence the trip to Georgia. That could
have had its origin in nothing but politics.
Those Georgia lawyers had never heard of
Judge Parker until his name was men
toned for the presidency. That brought
him to their attention. and forthwith they
became interested in him. Half of them
politicians in way. They wanted to
see the man and take his measure them
selves. A nudge was all that was neces-
sary. and they probably got that from
some loyal Parker quarter. Their invita-
ton was promptly accepted. Judge Parker
could not have been in ignorance as to it's
real meaning. and in keeping his engage
ment he must have felt that the interest

The Far East.

Rumors about the situation in the east
are always interesting and always conflict
ing The latest are these: Japan is spelling
for fight; Japan has no thought of going
to war. Russia expects war and is ready
for Japan; Russia will keep her engage
ments with everybody and desires peace.
Great Britain is secretly egging on Japan
and will back her to the hilt. If Japan is
waiting for the assistance of Great Britain
she will not attack Russia soon. France
will back Russia at all stages of the game
France doesn't care rap about the eastern
question. and Russia knows it. China is
helpless in the grasp of Russia. China, as
usual. is shammng and trying to be all
things to all men. You pays your money
and you takes your choice But of one
thing may be certain. The United
States has Russia's promise not to inter
fere with the policy of the open door in
Manchuria and expects her 70 keep II.

Upon this showing nothing could be

He Is doing of course with dignity. He
is not at all likely to descend to the hand

In connection with this discovery the

measures to defeat the cause Of science,
which this work represents. At the, came

to prevent the boys from obtaining access

any mischief with that otherwise useful
element.
The chances Of an increased rate in the
number Of vaccination cases that take in
the downtown wards OF the city are now
considered good.
