the primary election of Tuesday were
very slow in getting in from the coun-

ure for the large vote that was out

his opponent David Muir.

A Perfect Trust.

Charles NJ Schwab. who has just re-
turned from Europe. talks in a very
confident way about a working agree
ment that includes the United Steel
Corporation and the steel companies of
Belgium, Germany and Russia He says
that the men interested in the agree
ment control practically all the
vanadium in the world. and are thus
able to hold the steel situation in their
own hands, as the experiments at the
Bethlehem Works hava proved that the
vanadium process will produce the sort
OF steel that all the great companies
have been aiming at" Nanadium. such
being used largely in specilaties, such
as the manufacture Of automobiles and
tools. but II is to be had In such quanti-
ties that the process car be used in
making steel for every purpose for
which steel can be used"
1t would not be surprising II Mr.
Schwab yNSre talking, in part at least
for business reasons of his own rather
than from a desire 20 enlghten the
world on a subject Of great scientific
and economic interest But, taking
his interview as It appears. we have In
It the forecast of a perfect trust. The
men who own the vanG1ium should in
time become the sole producers of steel.
dispense with the word price entirely
and meet occasionally to decide on the
tribute that must be paid them. Per-
haps. however. there is a little
vanadium left IN odd corners which
might be fenced off by the governments
and protected among the natural re-
sources OF various countries. At any
rate the interview is likely TO give an
impetus to the discussion concerning
natural resources about which people
know more than they do about
vanadium and concerning the tenden-
cies toward monopoly and their prob
able outcome.

TAFT BRINGING
PEACE IN OHIO

Bv United Press Leased Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, July 2S-To say
that Judge Tafts friends in Washing
ton are pleased with the way in which
he plays the political game on his own
hook is putting It mildly They are
prophesying that before the campaign
is over the country will be convinced
that Il was Taft shrewdress that made
the Roosevelt administration such a
picturesque success.
A few of his most ardent admirers
are pleased to contrast his behavior in
the limelight with President Roosevelt
They admit that had the President
been handling the Craftsmanship
rumpus that. with one dash out Of the
box. he would have settlea It once and
for all. They are rather proud of the
fact that Judge Taft did not do It that
way.
1t is estimated that the Presidential
nominee is about to pull off some
stunts in the Ohio political situation
which will make old politicians sit up
and take a second sQuinr at Buckeye
Bill There is no denying the fact
that the Ohio aggregation, which has
been holding the whip hand in that
State since last spring, is sore at the
failure of Arthur l. Vorys, of their
midst. to land the craftsmanship.

that If the megaphonc hit any of these

This is all very well from the stand

THE HEARST TICKET.

HE third party convention of the Independ-
- ence League seems to be a fact, and the
gathering of the Hearst men is expected next
week at Chicago, when national ticket will be
nominated. This movement is disturbing Mr.
Bryan. He is reported to be laying plans to
capture the convention, but he is unlikely to
ceed, as the leaders of the Independence League
are attached to Mr. Hearst by strong strings
that will not be broken by the efforts of Mr.
Bryan.
The nomination of a Hearst ticket especially
if Mr. Hearst himself becomes the candidate for
president means loss OF an indefinite number
OF votes to Bryan What the number will be of
course cannot be estimated. The nomination of
the independence League ticket will make three
distinct radical parties drawing principally from
Democratic sources-the Socialists, the Popu-
lists and the Independence Leaguers.
When Bryan had all these elements with
him in 1906, he failed of election by good many
votes. To do better than he did then, he will
have to make up his losses caused by the defec-
ton OF the three groups of radicals by winning
back the former gold Democrats and by secur-
ing many Republican votes Despite the proph-
cts of chance of victory for Bryan, when these
chances are analyzed it looks as if political
miracle must be wrought to insure the election OF
Bryan. And no wizard that is to work the won
der is in sight.

IN THE BORDER STATES.

HE New York Press, which is sound Repub-
n lcan authority, believes that the national
Republican organization is confronted with
hard campaign, and that this is not the time to
indulge in rainbow chasing. 1t has not actually
got the Bryan scare" but it seems to be tending
in that direction.
The Press, for example, believes that the bor-
der States, which have voted for the Republicans,
will swing this year into the Bryan column, and
IN these States it includes Delaware, Maryland
and West Virginia, formerly of the Solid South.
We fear that the Press is somewhat awry in
its glance at the political conditions in these
States. Certainly there is little reason for be-
lieving that Mr.. Bryan has a good chance Of
carrying Delaware when il is considered that the
repeated Republican majorities according to
population in Delaware, during the last decade,
have equalled the majority obtained in most of
the staunchly Republican States. Even our
Democrats, when removed from the exhileration
caused by the high altitude of Denver, would
hardly place Delaware in the Bryan column
OF Maryland there should be little doubt
True, Maryland has swung back into the Demo-
cratic column on State elections, but the feeling
there against Bryan, especially among the busi-
ness interests in Baltimore, has been pronounced
The Bryan enthusiasm has been confined to an
element of the party which is not powerful in the
Democratic councils.
And OF West Virginia it would appear by the
malorities and the industrial development of that
State that West Virginia is safely within the
Republican column.
Sentiment here, no matter what il NAV be in
other parts of the country, does not indicate
DRIFT towards the Democratic ticket
