at College Point. where he was unable
to hold the crowd against counter
attraction in the shape of a sack race. -
Uncle Joe's Programme.
At the head of the list stands Uncle
Joe" Cannon, who has promised TO
make several speeches, where they are
expected to do the most good for the
ticket. Senator Deliver, Senator
Lodge, Representative Hepburn of
Iowa, Jim Sherman of New York, Sc
reno Payne, the floor leader of the ma
jority in the House of Representatives
and long list of loyal party men,
more or less valuable in expounding
the principles of the grand old party
in the doubtful districts.
Chairman COrtelyou's plans do not
contemplate beginning the spellbinding
feature of the campaign until about
the middle of September. In the mean
time the doubtful districts will have
been bountifully supplied with cam
paign material, so that the voters will
be prepared to grasp what the SPELL
binders are driving at when the lat
ter hold forth on the stump.
To Catch the Farmers.
"Old Jim Wilson has cunning way
of talking to the farmers that is very
catchy, and he will probably do the
administration good service in the
rural districts of the doubtful states.
Tafe is a jolly good fellow. who is
too good-natured to take a serious view
of the political situation. He contends
that the principal requisite for a man
to be successful in official life is to
have a good digestion. I do not antici-
pate any very effective campaigning
from Postmaster General Paine, Paul
Morton or Attorney General Moody
Secretary Hitchcock will probably do
large thinking part how to retain his
place in the cabinet. Metcalf is a
good talker and he may be assigned
to repaint the glories of the Pacific
Coast from an administration view
point. 1 hardly look for Secretary
John Hay to do much active cam
paigning. He may be induced to de-
liver an address at a banquet or some
other indoor political function
Having thus disposed of the cabinet
spellbinders, the veteran directed his
attention to some of the congressional
campaigners, who have volunteered
their services.

While there has been no shrinkage in
the quantity of campaign oratory Of
fereed to Chairman Cortelyou, he has
nevertheless been somewhat disap-
pointed at the quality of the early vol
uHteers. There are many noted cam
paigners in the Republican party, who
are expected to be pressed into active
conflict on the stump, who have not
thus far indicated what their inten-
lions or desires may be so far as act
i've work is concerned.
The men behind the desks, and 9TH
err officials holding snug berths under
the administration, have received an
intimation that each man and woman
will be expected to do his or her full
duty toward upholding the integrity
of the administration in the pending
conflict. There is nothing in the
Roosevelt code of civil service ethics
which conflicts with that overworked
Clevelandism: "Pernicious activity"
and accordingly the great army of
Republican office-holders is proceeding
to get busy in behalf of the "Roose-
welt Republican Record"
