There is ground for curiousty as to
the purpose of the Hearst lndepen-
dence League. 1t was supposed that
Mr.. Hearst purposed to organize his
league, hold its national convention
Just before the Democratic national
convention, have it endorse himself
for President and then utilize that en-
.dorsement in trying to get control of
the Democratic gathering. The
Hearst League has, however, set the
date of it's convention later than the
Democratic gathering. What then
does it all mean? 1t is possible that
Mr. Hearsti is playing farseeing game
with the hope of capturing the De-
mocracy in 1912?

Nearly three hundred New York
clergymen have petitioned Congress
not to increase the navy, arguing that
the United States now pays 65 per
cent of it's revenues for its military
establishment. And yet, there are
those who believe that at least com
petent military establishment is the
surest preventive of war. The Presi-
dent is one of these, and Secretary
Taft is another.

Mr.. Foraker says that he purposes
to speak three days on Brownsville,
not because he can do any good, or
vindicate the negro soldiers, but be-
cause he purposes to do everything in

OF that number forty eight are in

Only fourteen delegates from Ohio
had been elected and all are instructed
for Taft. The remaining thirty four
Taft delegates come from states other
than Ohio. No candidate other than
Taft has thus far secured any dele
