A Halt in the Campaign.


The Republican campaign does
not show signs of victorious pro-
gress. There is a plain halt all
along the line. For two months
there has been a continual display
of fractional strife and consequent
disintegration.
The action of leading Kansas
Republicans favoring guaranty of
bank deposits unhorses Postmaster
General Meyer, is defiance as to
Mr.. Taft's position, and the adop-
ton of another Democratic plank
by Western Republicans. 1t is
not far short of party mutiny, yet
it will not be surprising If the Re
publicans of Missouri, Iowa, Ne
braSka, and other States of the
West line up for the proposition.
Democratic ideas have appealed
strongly during the last four years
II Western Republicans. In Iowa,
where but a short time ago string
of banks shot the chutes to disaster,
the people have had M experience
that leaves them peculiarly suS-
ccptible Co arguments for guaranty
of deposits. Even in Pittsburg.
where Republican strength is mass
Ell and bank failures for n season
were epidemic. with;a the past few
days there have been free, open
expressions by the people favoring
guaranty of deposits. They favor
protection in PittSburg, and those
careful people see bSt little use to
gather shekels through tariff
only to lose them by dishonesty of
bank officials. They seem 10 be
Republicans on the tariff and De-
mocrats ON the bank guara nty.
Perhaps they are consistent i'm thus
favoring protection in both forms.
These campaign episodes disclose
the breaking down of the old party
lines They are also l.roof thSi
bo'h parties are moving steadily to
new and more radical positions.
The conservative Republican lead
ers are powerlcsS before the voting
masses of their own people. The

and whose heart i hardened TO the
woes OF Joseph's brethren.
Radical ascendency is now estab-
lishcd in the Republican party of
the West. The few conservatives
are leaders without followers. A
protest from even the national
candidates would be ignored, and a
determined stand in opposition by
them wonld mean their political
finish. The West today is Repub-

FINE CHANCE FOR
THE DEMOCRATS
Warner and Foraker Bills Will
Be Adversely Reported
to Senate.

Washington. March 31.-The five Demo-
cratic members of the senate committee
on military affairs today succeeded in
defeating both the Warner and Foraker
bills for restoration TO duty of negro
soldiers of the Twenty-fifth infantry who
were discharged without honor because
of the affray at Brownsville, Tex. The
success Of the minority was accomplished
i by voting as unit against the divided
majority.
The effect will be to cause both bills
TO be reported adversely. A majority vote
of the senate would enact one OF the
bills, however. and Senator Warner is
hopeful that his measure will yet become
a law.
The essential point of difference be-
tween the two bills is that the Warner
measure provides that the president may
reinstate any soldier upon becoming sat
isfied that he is innocent of the charge
against him, while the Foraker bill com
pels the reinstatement of such soldiers
If they take oath of their innocence.
When the committee met today Senator
Warner moved to report his bill favor
ably, whereupOn Senator Foraker moved 10
substitute his bill. The latter motion was
defeated. the five Democrats. Messrs.
Taliaferro, Foster, Overman. Frazier and
McCreary. joining with Messrs. Warren,
Lodge, Warner and Dupont in opposing
it. A vote was then taken on the War
ner bill and 1t was voted down. the
five Democrats joining with Senators
Scott, Foraker and Buckley in OPPOSE
ton.

HILL GETS THE
JOB At BERLIN
Nomination Sent to the Senate
Yesterday by President
Roosevelt.
MATTER HAPPILY ADJUSTED
INCIDENT NOW REGARDED ON
BOTH SIDES AS CLOSED.

Washington. March S1.-President
Roosevelt sent to the senate today the
nomination of DR.. David Jayne Hill 10
be American ambassador at Berlin.
Germany. The resignation of Charlie
magne Tower, now at the post mas
been accepted, to take effect June l.
At that time DIR. Hill will assume his
new duties This statement, made at
the White House today, is said to be
taken as happy ending of the Hill
incident.
The attitude of the American admin
istration is that DIR. Hills eminence
as a statesman, scholar and diplomat
has not suffered the slightest impair
ment in view of the disclaimer of the
German emperor of any adverse ex-
preston regarding him, and the
hearty recognition of DR.. Hills per-
sonality and standing contained in the
statement of President Roosevelt, is
sued from the White House last night.
At the German embassy it was stat
ed today that nothing more is to be
said regarding the Hill matter from
that quarter.

DETERMINED TO
HOLD THEIR OWN
Independent Telephone ASSo-
citation Opens Headquar-
tiers in Chicago.

Chicago. March 31.-Permanent head
quarters of the international Independent
Telephone association were opened today
in Chicago with the purpose of inaugu-
rating a policy of aggressiveness that, the
organization expects will put a new COM
plexion on the telephone situation IN
America. For the first time in the his
tory of the independent telephone move
ment and the organization of the asso-
citation there is a Salaried president. A.
c. Lidemuth Of Richmond Ind, and a
salaried secretary, J. b. Ware of Detroit.
Mich. both of whom. with a corps of
assistants. will devote their entire time
to organization and field work, stimulat-
ing and promoting the cooperative OBJ
jects of the association. Mr. Lidemuth
said today:
There are at present no less than 10000
Independent telephone companies op-
Grating approximately 10000 independent
telephone exchanges in the United States
and Canada. with tens of thousands of
miles of toll lines, occupying ALL or in
part, all the states and territories of
the Union and all the provinces of Can
ada. having over 4.O00 900 Independent tele-
phones installed and being supplied by
upwards of LOCO factories and suDply
houses and altogether representing an
investment of $3.50, 1000.
THE cry of duplication and waste is
familiar one in ali branches and in
dustries. but recent utterances of the
candidates for the highest offices in the
land on commercial and industrial lib
erty and competition as against monopoly
provide all the defense the independent
telephone Industry may need"

More Important Than Ever.

Berlin, March 31.-The advices re-
ceived at the foreign Office from
WashingtoB indicate that in the
American capital. as we'll as in Berlin.
the Hill episode is regarded as having
been happily adjusted. The best diplO-
matte opinion is that if Mr.. Hill
chooses TO come to Berlin he will find
his position not only agreeable, but
more important than would have been
the case if the incident had not hap
pened. Charlemagne Tower, the retir-
ing American amba ssador, in fulfill
ment OF his letter to President Roose-
welt last September, in which he said
that he would ask leave to resign
early next summer, has now fixed the
date at June !. and he has so Informed
the president. Mr.. Tower gave legal
notice last October to the owner of his
residence here that ne would give up
his house the first of May, and if has
been advertised for rent. The occu-
pancy of this building is now under
discussion al suitable for the Japan
csc embassy, and if found to- be de-
sirable it viii be purchased by Japan.

COAL MINERS DROP PICKS

Fields Idle Until an Agree

Indianapolis. March 31.-TwO hundred
and fifty thousand picks dropped from
the hands of as many bituminous coal
miners of the United States this evening,

ment has been reached and scale adopt
ed between the members of the United
Mine Workers of America and the coal
operators of the various fields.
Tomorrow morning 10000 men will be
idle and thousands of coal mines of the
country viii be deserted.
The situation, however. does not indi-
cate a prolonged strike. An open winter
and industrial depression have left large
stock of coal on hand, and the differences
between miners and oDerato are very
slight 1t is practically agreed that the
present wage scale will be continued. but
some politics in connection with the
change in the national officers of the
miners organizations and local differ
ences between operators and miners have
resulted in temporary suspension from
work until a new wage scale is agreed to
either by districts or individual mines.
