VALLEY FORGE is RESTORED.

A few years ago Valley Forge was
one Of the most neglected of the ma
tons historic places. Visitors saw
Washington's headquarters and then
wandered around aimlessly, regarding
with disappointment the rubbish
choked bitches that were pointed out
as the entertainments dug by the
patriots of IT. A few vagrant looking
signboards informed the tourists that
the almost obliterated lines were forts,
constructed by Washington's soldiers;
but the entire camp ground was rapid
ly dissolving itself into the scenery,
and landmarks were becoming more
and more difficult to find.
All this has now been changed. The
trenches have been cleared Of rubbish,
the forts restored, monuments erected.
markers placed to show where the
men Of the various states had their
headquarters, and the entire camp
fairly bristles with signposts to guide
the patriotic visitor.
Most notable OF. all is the Memorial
chapel and Patriots hall, erected on
the spot where Washington knelt to
ask divine aid for his difficult and
seemingly hopeless campaign.
The story is told that, upon one &C.
casion, farmer in the neighborhood
of the desolate camp at Valley Forge.
observed the commanding general dis
mount from his horse and disappear
within an adjacent grove: Drawing
nearer, the awed farmer-patriot beheld
Washington kneeling upon the frozen
snow, his hat removed, and his face
lifted in the reverent attitude of
prayer. 1t is easy to trace the unfal-
tering patience and determination
with which the great man upheld the
shivering, starving soldiers who loved
him, to his own reliance upon the
source of all strength and wisdom.

sent out to districts from Maine to
California. But with the opening Of
western and eastern headquarters by
the congressional committees, the
struggle takes on an intensified form
and in every district from coast to
coast there is stand up fight, which
continues until the polls are closed in
November.
The congressional committee is
without doubt one of the most power
full organizations in the American po.
htical system. It is distinctly the Gre
alton Of congress itself. The members
from each state select one of their
number as a member of the commit
tee, and the committee in turn selects
its officers and an executive commit
tee. The campaign is run by the off,
GERS Of the committee, and 1t becomes
campaign along the lines desired
By the party as 1t is represented in
congress. To that extent the commit
mittee is almost close corporation
for the perpetuation of the existing
organization Of congress.
1t is true that 1t cannot always die
tate the local issues in various dis
tricts, and that 1t often fails to bring
q candidate through" because of the
peculiarities Of his home fight. 1t is
nevertheless behind every one Of the
800 or more congressional fights
throughout the United States; and its
counsel, the plans It has formed. and
the active support it gives the candi-
date and the newspapers Of its party
WELD a tremendous influence in the
congressional results everywhere.

but it is the congressional committee

tarlfr, and following that Is the LIN
coin day speech of President Taft.
More than 100000 post cards, con.
tanning speeches boiled down." are
being sent out
Democratic resources embrace a
dozen important speeches made in
both houses of congress, bearing upon
the tariff and other live political is
sues.
To send out this enormous amount
of literature from the two headQuar-
tiers would require much more money
than the congressional committees can
put their hands on, were 1t not for the
bene1cent provisions of the govern
ment franking laws. The reason why
most of the campaign thunder" is
made in congress will be better I'M
derstood when it is known that such
thunder goes postage free to any part
of the nation.
The speeches and extracts of
speeches now being sent from both
the Democratic and Republican Offices
are mailed under the franks of mem
bers of congress, and within the full
authority of the law. The magic
words: part of Congressional Record
Free" will carry words of political
wisdom into the hands of almost every
voter in the country before the cam
paign is ended.
The men who are openly at the head
of the two big committees are not Of
more importance in the scheme of the
congressional campaign than are the
political sages in the background. In
the Republican headquarters the work
will be conducted from New York by
Congressman Henry G. Loudenslager,
of New Jersey, secretary of the COM
mittee through many campaigns. From
Chicago, Congressman William B. Nc
Kinley from Illinois will run western
affairs and direct the operation of the
speakers bureau. The latter will be
run entirely from the Chicago Offices,
while the literary bureau will operate
from New York and Washington.
In the background is the staff of
consulting experts" consisting of
such men as Cannon, Tawney, Fassett
and others long identified with ma
tional campaigns.
The situation is much the same on
the Democratic side. Congressman
James T. Lloyd of Missouri, chairman
of the committee, will have charge of
the Chicago quarters throughout the
campaign. In the background, how
ever, is the complete congressional or
ganization of former years, and the
counsel of Congressman Champ Clark,
Ollie James, Swager Sherley, Oscar W.
Underwood, Gilbert M. Hitchcock and
other successful party leaders.

Washington.-The two powerfully
organized political bodies, the con-
gressional campaign committees OF. the
Republican and Democratic parties,
have opened their quarters for the fall
campaign and from now on the fight
for the control of the next congress
will be in full swing The Republicans
will wage their battle from headquar-
tiers both in New York and Chicago
and the main office of the Democrats
will also be in the Illinois metropolis.
In broad sense, the fight for the
control of congress is going on all the
time, with Washington for its head
quarters. The Washington offices are
the great supply depots, and from
them literature is being constantly

The sublime Porte.

The phrase the sublime porte"
arises from an aspect of the sultan's
capital. The French words sublime

lima" meaning 1.-The lofty gate" Con-
stantinople city used to have twelve
gates. and near one was a building
with an imposing gateway called Bab-i-
Humajun. In this building resided
the grand vizier, and there also were
the officers of the chief ministers.

Chewing Gum.

Chewing gum is nothing but chicle
mixed with sugar and flavoring; and
chicle is the gum of tree that grows
plentifully in Mexico and Central
America and that of recent years has
been cultivated on a large scale In
Yucatan, where the American Chicle
company owns several million acres Of
It. The chicle tree is not unlike the
India rubber tree, and the gum was
first shipped to America by men who
believed that in 1t they had perfect
substitute for rubber. In this, how
ever, they were mistaken, as 1t was
found that the chicle gum was IN
soluble. Not to this day has any me-

been found that will dissolve 1t
