Bribers and boodlers will soon be
forced to adopt the philosophy of or
dinary criminals, which is to the effeci
that crime is a game with the chances
largely against the player. That thii
is true philosophy is manifest by the
fact that criminals are pitted against
the organized and overwhelming force
of society as a whole = st. Louis Re-

The supreme court judgeship fight
IS warming up. Hon. nj. A. Norris, of

to have the Hanna support this year
for the place and is regarded as a
formidable candidate. Justice Burkett
is candidate for third term, but the
edict seems to have gone forth that
he Is to be retired. Judge Summers, Of
Springfield, second in the race last

Senator Harding. OF Marion, re-
ceiyed the news of the Cox 'declara-
ton for Herrick with Suspicious
placidity He said that the selection
by Hanna and Cox OF Herrick showed
wisdom and forethought and pledged
his support to the nominee of tho
convention. The senator has tee1
quite passive in his candidacy and now
his sincerity as q candidate is being
questioned. Z Herrick, Ellis and Gull
bert, for a third term as auditor of
state, are the candidates Cox has no.
tilted the. party he desires nominated.
Many loyal Republicans are wonder
ing II the rank and file Of the party
are ever to be considered in the selec-
ton of the nominees and are CON-
planning, with acerbity of the usurpa-
ton of their rights.

CAPITAL GOSSIP

Columbus, April 21.--Evidence in
attendance is at hand that the forth
coming Republican state convention
will resolve itself into'a mere tatifica-
tion meeting. Senator Hanna and
George B. Cox, the Cincinnati boss,
will name the ticket and the delegates
will adopt 1t. The official declaration
by Cox Saturday night that he was
for Myron r. Herrick, Of Cleveland,
for governor, practically makes GER
tain his nomination and has had the
effect of making all other Republican
gubei material aspirants beat hasty
retreat to the tall timbers. These can
dictates will now unobtrusively and
with as much grace as possible effacs
themselves from the race. Herrick ic
"it'--HannaS and Cox have decreeds 1t
thus. There is no denying that Cox,
the ex-dive keeper, has come to be Q
power in Republican state politics. He
has In the hollow OF his hand the 50
delegates of Hamilton county and can
make or unmake a candidate at his
own sweet will. He could be shorn OF
his power II a majority of the other
counties would present solid 'front.'
against him, but II rarely happens
there Is uranmity Of this sort and 70
III Is that he is able to dictate what
shall be done at each convention. Cox
also wants Wade Ellis, Of Cincinnati,
who was chief architect of the new
code, nominated for attorney general,
and thus It will probably be. 1t. is
presumed that Lieutenant Governor
Harry Gordon will be a candidate to
succeed himself and that in this am
bition he has the sanction of Cox and
Of course can be no other. than sue
cessful. Cox may also have other Gin
cinnat men in mind for other places
on the state ticket and II he has their
identity will be revealed in ample
time, SO the delegates may occasion
themselves no unnecessary concern on
this score.
