YALE TO HAVE NO PART IN CAMPAIGN
DR.. Hadley Corrects Impression That Uni
versity Is Working for Mr.. Taft.

New Haven Sept 3 (SpeciaD.-The impression
that has been spread abroad that Yale has gone
into politics TO help elect William H Taft Presi-
dent is corrected by DR.. Arthur T. Hadley presi-
dent of the university. He says that Yale has no
mart in the Taft campaign a university, and
that the university is entirely out of politics Yale
will not indorse Taft for the Presidenc~ As a
matter of fact. Taft's Yale class did not in
dorse him at the commencement gathering of the
members of Yale rs. with whom Mr.. Taft met
here for their thirtieth reunion last June.
Instead of Yale men organizing as unanimous
Taft brigade there will be no formal Yale organi-
cation for Taft except a Taft undergradua
marching battalion which will be formed as soon
as the fall term opens. but there will also be
a Bryan battalion there is no significance political
ly in the
When President Hadley asked what action
Yale would formally take in regard TO the can
didacy of Mr.. Taft. who is distinguished alumnus
of the university and a member OF the Yale cor
poration. he said
"A university as a university has 10 business IN
political orga anizations. Mr.. Taft Is one of the
most popular alumni of Yale. He has been pop
,1lar here that he has unusually large number
of enthusiastic friends among the alumni but they
are acting as Individual citizens.
ANY attempt TO make the university as an or
ganized body participate in the campaign would
be alike harmful to the university and TO Mr
Taft"
The statement of Dr. Fadley makes it clear that
Taft is not 10 be honored by official political
movement on the part of Yale. and that II he re-
ceves practically the entire Yale vote II Will be

Although the line between the regular Tammany
Hail leaders supporting Charles T. Murphy and
those who have stood with Mayor Mcclellan is
not so sharply drawn it last year, of
those now opposing the regular leaders
who might be expected to side with the Mayor in
case Of open lineup. It has been shrewdly sus-
pected that Senator McCarren, instigated in part
by the spirit reprisal for what Murphy is trying
to do to him in Brooklyn partly by the sug-
gestion that he might be able form alliance
that would control the city convention next fall,
has been secretly backing some of the fights

What is known as hay fever is in reality
demic catarrh a catarrhal condition of the nose,

by some local irritant.
The irritation is generally due to vegetal ema-
nations of some sort. Hay has been suspected

name. hay fever. It has been attributed to rag
weed and other vegetation also. 1t is a very
capricious disease, coming and going. A nedi
