AFTER YOU, DEAR ALPHONsE"

srccilI From 4 Stan Correspondent
NI,.T YORK. September 2s.-Wel'-in-
furs..u politicians hcrelboUts say that
Gov Hughes can have the New York state
delegation to the republican national con-
v'utiou if he desires il for hims If. The
question which is agitatng the politician
at this time is whether he does desire II.
ON that subject the governor Is sphynX,
and nobody pretends with sincerity to be
able 70 speak for him or to say what he
wants The natural assumption Of the
rank and file OF the politicians is that he
does want it. Of course. and the cynical
ones contend that he is working in his own
way and after his own fashion to obtain it.
The politicians here say that If Gov.

them. They do not understand his leads,
his trumps or his diSCards. They think,
however. that at the way the game is
progressing he is good 10 make a grand
SIAM if he wants to do SO.
The fact IS, the politicians are beginning
70 realize that Gov. Hughes has the people
with him. and that in this instance the
politicians y III have to sing low and stand
ASIDE Prr :iCal tricks cannot beat him
and political triCksters cannot hurt him.
Gov Hughes has entrenched himself with
the people At large and is in a position to
dictate his terms to politicians in conse-
guence. Realization of this fact, therefore,
Is leading all the small fry to join in the
general hue and cry for Hughes. Every
little bit helps and the accession of the
floating element is not regarded as negiigt-

Popular With Rank and File.

You hear a different tale, however, when
yoH get among the rank and file The
President IS sun popular with the com
mon people. and 1t is question If his
popularity with them is not on the in
CrcJsc instead of the decrease Every play
the administration makes against the cor
rai.ou-, the credit FOR IL goes to Mr..
Roosevelt.
You ask them why it is Gov Hughes can
lave the lead II he wants 1t. The answer
Is. that the President IS not supposed to be
&c. the running Gov. Hughes is regarded
a. presidential possibility. Next to Presi-
dent Roosevelt, he Is the most popular man
with the masses and he possesses the ad-
ditlunal advantage of being popular also
with q corporation interests that are
fighting President Roosevelt. If that is So
you ask. why doesn't Gov. Hughes come
out and work for the nomination?
/ cannot answer that question and no poli-
tcian with whom l have talked has been
able 10 answer II. Possibly he Is waiting
foT demand to come from the people. that
he shall be nominated. One of the best
posted and most capable politicians in this
state said 10 me last night:

don't know. and his closest friends do not
know whether he will give free rein or
not. But until we hear from him we are
going ahead upon the assumption that
he will respond 10 the call Of the people"
Now, here IS a suggestion that was made
10 me yesterday In the course of q talk
with one OF the men prominently connected
with the opposition TO President Roosevelt:
You frequently hear Il stated" he said,
that President Roosevelt may be forced
to accept denomination by the general
demand from the people that he should run
again. Well. suppose there is a respectable
minority which sturdy resists this demand;
can be consistently claim thea as excuse
for going back on his word. that he does so
in response to general acclaim? There will
be a respectable minOritJ which will 80
insist and II viii come from his own state

Where Does the President StandP

" mere OOtS TIE SSlCcAl StdAuE
The question naturally arises at once
where does President Roosevelt stand?
Well he himself has said that he is a prac-
teal man. and il is thought around here
that for the present, at least he is stand
ing pat. That is to say, he IS not making
any onslaught on Gov. Hughes BY the
same token Gov. Hughes is not making any
fight on him. Indeed. to use very hack
n-yed Simle II almost is a of after
YOU my dear Alphonsc" In other words If
President Roosevelt should want the dele
cation from his state for himself, ii is quite
doubtful if Gov. Hughes would try to keep
HIM from getting II. 1t is stated that the
President feels that If Gov. Hughes wants it
for himself, he, the President, would not
fight him.
But Gov. Hughes Is not an avowed candi-
date, and of course the President is not.
Here is where the difficulty arises: Suppose
Gov. Hughes wants the delegation for some
one else, and suppose the President should
insist that ii should go to his proposed
reSiduary legatee, Mr.. Taft? Well. in that
event there will be trouble. 1t may he ac-
cepted a statement Of fact not to be
contruverted that the New York delegation
cannot be handed over to Mr.. Taft without
a fight. In the first place. there the
Cortelyou people. who contend that If some
member Of the Presidents cabinet is to he
his successor. Mr.. Cortelyou will have to be
considered Then there are the Fairbanks
people who viii have a word to say in the
final arrangements. Then there the
people VINO VIII be opposed To any man Sc
leCted by President Roosevelt on account of
their hostility to the President. and they do
not represent a weakling faction by any
means
OF course President Roosevelt has
tagor!zed certain element in this state
on account Of his attitude toward corpora
tons, That goes without saying. That c.
ment would fight his denomination, and II
he were nominated would move heaven and
eRTtn to defeat his election, If 1t could.
The same motive which dictates the oppo-
sit!on OF this element would operate against
a candidate of the Presidents choosing.
Down I'm Wall street yesterday asked a
nan who is prominent in both finance and
politics how the President is now regarded
by the corporation and financial circles.
We'll" he said, that question reminds
of a story ] heard up state the other

Town Improvement Society.

The picnic Of the Town Improve
ment Society in Coburn Park on Fri
day afternoon of last week proved to
some at least of those who participat-
ed in it's pleasure, the most enjoyable
affair of it's kind for the entire season.
The weather was of the ideal Sep
tember variety, 1.-THE flowers and shrub
berry that adorn the park were at the
height of their beauty, while the wis
dom and far sightedness of the donor
that has made such recreation
ground possible for the citizens of our
town, was demonstrated on this beau
tiful afternoon to the fullest extent.
Quite a large number were pres
ent. and the entertainment of story
telling by each one proved great hit
as anecdote grave and gay followed
one another in quick succession. A
beautiful poem was read, also New
England love story, while conversa-
ton on topics of general interest and
"reminiscences of travel were appre-
ciated by all. A bountiful picnic sup
per was served in due time and heart
ily endorsed as the correct thing for
the occasion.
The next meeting of the society will
be held on October 25th, this being the
date of the first literary meeting for
the season of 1907-08, and 1t is expect
ed that a program of great interest
will be presented at this time.

The Calve Concert of the Maine
Festival, Bangor, Oct. 5th, 1907.

Owing to the tremendous demand
for single tickets Calve night, and in
order that the out of town people may
not be disappointed on reaching Ban
gor to find that it will be impossible
to procure ticket or seat, the msp-
agement have decided to break over
the rule this season owing to the
greatest attraction in the world,
Madame Calve and her entire COM
pany, Mile. Chemet, and Mons De-
grouse, together with Mr.. Chapman's
superb New York Orchestra, and the
great Festival Chorus in their most
popular numbers. From all indica-
tions now this will be the most brilli-
ant audience ever assembled in Maine.
Never in the history of the Festival
have so many demands come for tic
kets. The management are trying to
keep the Calve tickets from the hands
of the spectators. In Western Maine
at the Auction Sale most all of the de-
sirable seats were purchased, and the
public will be obliged to pay $40 for
the same to hear Nine. Calve. These
tickets will arrive In your city on or
about the Goth Of September, and can
be purchased only through the local
agent, j. Harvey White. Applica-
lions should be made at once to him
for tickets. These tickets will remain
IN your town four days, and no extra
charge for them will be made for buy
ing them from your local agent. At
ter that all applications should be
made to M. II. Andrews, Bangor,
where the public will have to take
their chances. Never in the history
of Maine has there been given such a
great concert. The expense of the
same to the management is between
So, 900 and $1,000, and no one that has
the slightest love for music can fail to
be present on this great occasion. All
the concerts of the entire Festival are
the most interesting, since the organi-
cation of the Festival. The grand
opera night is close second to the
Calve performance. The greatest
cast that can be procured in America
will appear. Janet Spencer, Daniel
Beddoe, Cecil Tanning, and others.
