ARMY-NAVY GAME
NAY BE CHANGED
TO NEW YORK CITY
Trouble Over Tickets
Likely to Move Con-
test From Franklin
Field.

NEW YORK, Jan. There are the
best prospects for the playing of the
Army and Navy football game this year
in New York city at one or the other
of the two baseball parks.
The Army officials are solidly for the
prospect, and a gOodly percentage Of
the Navy sympathizeTs are with them.
The only objection TO the move is the
greater distance which Annapolis viii
have to travel and the added distance
from Washington which the official at
tendants Of the game must come. This,
while an important consideration, does
not offset the disadvantages of Frank
lin Field in Philadelphia. which next
year Will be more serious than they
have been in the past
Philadelphia Satisfactory.
The games were played at Philadel-
Phia for a period of years TO the salts
faction of all parties concerned, until
the demands made upon the Army and
Navy Associations fOT tickets became so
extensive that it was necessary for
them TO secure d larger allotment than
had been accorded them.
Pennsylvania. which received the ma
jor portion of the tickets, had also
DIX clientele WulCl must De TAXED care
of, and Franklin Field could not accom-
modate all the people who demanded
TO 90. After a long discussion 10 IT. 10
arrange the difficulty, ii was decided
10 move away from Franklin Field. and
two years ago the game was taken to
Princeton
Transportation Poor.
Here all the tickets that were desired
were given TO both the Army and Navy,
but the transportation facilities were so
7vretChed that IL was impossible to
transport the crowd 20 and from the
game. Trains were stalled for hours
on the inadequate tracks leading into
Princeton. and many did not get to see
the game at ali after making the long
Journeys to get there. 1t was impOssI-
BILE 10 house the two cadet corps in the
college town and the undertaking proved
a complete failure.
AS q result the game was returned to
Philadelphia, and for the past two years
las been played again on Franklin
Field. BY q readjustment of the ticket
distribution both the Army and Navy
received an additional thousand tickets
over their old allotment and were able
to get through with these, though the
limits were very narrow Now II ap-
pears that even this cannot be CON
tinued and the allotment must be cut
down again IT the game Is TO be played

Presidential Election Is Near.

Only week now remains before 1t
will be decided by the people OF this
country who shall be president for the
next four years, William "a. Taft or
William ]. Bryan. In some respects
this has been rather peculiar campaign.
The law governing campaign contribu-
tions has operated to reduce largely the
size of the campaign funds. On this &C
count there has been less of the spectacu-
lar about the campaign. By some it has
been called dull and lacking in en-
thusiam. That there has been less
money expended than usual, and less of
the noise and enthusiasm that money
can produce, Is undoubtedly true. That
there is any real lack of interest in the
outcome we do not believe to be true.
IL has also been said by some OF those
who class themselves as independents"
that there is no issue between the
parties, the only issue of the campaign
being the personality of the candidates.
While this is not true, because there are
distinct issues between the parties, as
there have always been, it is doubtless
true that the personality of the candi-
dates counts as larger part of the issue
than in any other campaign for more
than generation.
In personal character the two leading
candidates for the presidency, and the
only two who need TO be considered,
are not to be criticised. Both are men
Of high character, and there is no faint
upon the private or public life of either.
But on the one side there is William
II. Taft, pledged to the carrying out of
Republican principles and the policies of
the Roosevelt administration, trained in
all departments of government, and prov
ed not only an able but safe man. And
on the other hand is William j. Bryan,
who rode into prominence on the long
dead issue of the free coinage of silver,
and who has since championed a half
dozen other issues now dead; man
unframed and improved in administra-
tive government, and though sincere, so
radical in his views and his acts that be-
cause he is sincere. results almost revo-
lutionary might be expected to follow
his election.
And then there is always the difference
between the two parties, and the proven
fact that the Republican party has the
confidence of the people more than the
Democratic party.
The election of Taft seems as well as
sured as anything can be which deals
with human nature, and yet it depends
upon the voters to accomplish the fact.
The voters of Maine will do their part,
and with the local issues out of the way
which affected the result in September,
we look for good old fashioned Repub-
licsn majority in this state.
