is string" to it, and that should
Parker be elected Hill would loom up
as the dominant figure in the admin
istration, probably becoming secretary
of state
Just why so much fuss should bc
r. ade over Hill is hardly understood
outside of New York, and its imme-
date environments. Down this way
the Democrats do not consider the
ex-senator an animal with hoofs and
horns. He is looked npon rather a.
a good Democrat and a shrewd leader
who may have made his mistakes. b.
who. taken all in all, is about as good

be mentioned That he is not an idol
OF the mugwump crowd does not make

Gratis of the south and west: they rath-
er like the Hill brand of Democracy,
and they certainly prefer it to the
neddlins n?ugwumpism that insists

running the Democratic party in the
east.
About the most plausible Of the
several motives advanced by those
Insist there must be one is that Mr..
HIS pronunciamento is intended to
aid his candidate for governor, John
p Stanchfield. They figure it out
this way: Hill wants Stanchfeld
nominated because the Elmira man
has always been one of his most loya'
lieutenants. He figures that by elm
mating himself as a possibility for
preferment al the hands of his par
i'll the future. he will be in strong
position to ask the state convention
to give the governorship nomination
to Stanchfield. There may be some
thing in that.

Wr,Y SO MUCH HILL TALK?

Ex-senator Hills announcement
that after the first of next january
he Will have no more dallianee with
the came of politics has given rise
To variety of comment calculated
in the aggregate, TO amuse the man
nj whose head it is aimed. Senator
Fill has so long been a public figure
that his skin must by this time be
inlpervious to the stings of his crit
les and the shafts of ridicule hurled
either in bitterness or in mere amuse-
ment; so he is doubtless Wreathed IN
smiles as he reads the comments OF
the newspapers, friendly and un-
friendly. # he is like most public mon
he believes everything good that is
said Of him, and finds in every criti-
cism an ulterior motive traceab1e 10
the jealousy of some rival.
The keynote running through almost
all Of the newspaper comment friend
" as we'll as unfriendlE. is. "AhatsS
hack Of it," In politics no man
can make move of any Kind withon
somebody looking for a motive. US
Ually selfish one. This is, of course,
particularly true when the move has to
dc with the fortunes of the moVant,
as in the case of Mr.. Hill. Some few
of the commentators take his state
ment at its face value-that is, that he
is tired of the game and has deter.
mined on that account alone, to have
mo more of it. But these, it can, be
said without fear of contradictions are
a small minority; the great majority
are looking for the motive.
The frendliest of these see in Mr..
Hills self-elimination nothing more,
Tor less. than realization that the pos
sibility of his being attached to the
Parker administration is danger
Doint in the Parker campaign, and that
solely to aid Judge Parker he has
sent forth to the world the announce
ment that he will no longer be in &C
tive politics. But why, if this is the
case, did he say January |? Why did
he not say November S, which is cleo
ton day. or March 4, which is the day
1pon which the new administration
will be officially launched? These
are questions being asked by the
doubling.
The unfriendIy press in it's criti-
cism runs the gamut from such wild
queries as these up to, and including,
the open charge that Senator Hill
has made his announcement WIN de-
Iberate purpose TO deceiye-that there

JERRY AND THE MONEY DEVIL

The action of the New Mexico Dem
Ocratic territorial convention in max
ing its nomination for congress is o.
interest for two reasons. One is that
the nominee, George p Money is a
son Of Senator fernando DeSOto
Money, of Mississippi. and this nom
ination means his formal entrance into
active politics in the territory where
he will make his home: the other rea-
son is that the man he defeated was
the redoubtable Jerry Simpson After
Jerry was beaten by Chester Long.
who in consequence was subsequently,
elevated by the Republicans to mem
hership in the senate, he, Jerry the
Sockless One, deserted Medicine
I.odge, his Kansas home, and went
down into New Mexico. There have

STRENGTH OF
WORLDS NAVIES
Bureau of Intelligence of the United
States Make Valuable Com
parisOnS
LOSS OF PORT ARTHUR FLEET
Would Cripple and Place Russis
in Fifth Place of Navies.

In making general statement OF
the relative strength of the navies OF
the world, it is necessary to define
clearly the basis on which such estim-
ate is made. Otherwise, the com
parison is apt to be misleading. A
few months ago the Bureau of In
telligence of the United States navy
made some valuable comparisons,
based upon it's own invaluable sources
of information, in one of which the
navies were compared on the basis
of the number and displacement both
of the warships actually completed
on January l, 1904, and the other on
the number and displacement both OF
the warships actually completed and
of those under construction at that
date. In these estimates no account
is taken of gunboats and other YES
sells OF less than 1000 tons displace'
ment, nor do they include trans
ports, dispatch vessels, converted
merchant vessels or yachts, or obso-
lete cruisers. Vessels, moreover,
that are authorized, but upon which
no actual v ork of construction has
been done, are excluded from the
comparison
At the outset, attention should be
drawn to the fact that although the
