THE Parker Nea0 Era recently re-
marked that had Coe. I. Crawford
stated at the beginning OF his campaign
for governor that he would not, Ii
elected, use the governors chair as q
stepping stone into the U. S. senate,
his campaign would not have been
so difiicult-or words TO that effect.
No such an announcement was neces-
sary, brother. Had Mr.. Crawford
simply announced his candidacy for
the nomination subject to the viii Of the
state. convention, we believe no power
on earth could have defeated him. TT
would have been possible for everyone
TO support him In that case: but nov
he has made impossible for anyone TO
support him who believes In the integ-
rity and loyalty Of Senators Kittredge
and Gamble, Copgressmen Martin aud
Burke, Chairman Crane and q host of
other leaders who have fought success
fully our party's battles la the past
and converted majority OF ten OF
twenty thousand against us eight years
ago into . republican majority of 20,
900 two years ago. We believe this Ii
asking too much OF . man, no matter
how much We admire Crawford as j
man. Salem Special.

We sometimes receive inquiries as TO
the standing OF persons who advertise
themselves in newspapers and maga-

saying that Christian Scientists do not
advertise, and ii Is safe 10 assume that
the persons who thus bring themselves
to the attention Of the public are not In
any way identified with our denomina-
tlon nor with its healing work. The
following reference TO the methods em-
ployed By unauthorized persons who
pose as Christian Scientists, Is copied
from a previous issue OF the Sesstjael:
1T ID unnecessary for Us To say that
