NEWS FORECAST FOR THE
COMING WEEK

Washington, d. c.. Sept. 24.-The
fight between ex-President Roosevelt
and the 'old guard" for control of
the republican party in New York
will focus public attention on Sara
toga, where the republican state
convention will assemble Tuesday
for the nomination of a state ticket
and the adoption of a platform. The
general belief is that the convention
will develop into one of the liveliest
political contests of the generation
and the claims are so conflicting and
the issues so confused that it is i'm
possible to forecast the results with
any degree of certainty.
The democratic state convention
will meet at Rochester two days af-
ter the Saratoga gathering and in
comparison it promises to be an ex
ceedingly mild and harmonious af-
fair. The belief is growing that Ma
yor William J. Gaynor of New York
city is likely to be the democratic
nominee for governor. The others
whose names are mentioned in con-
nection with the head of the ticket
are Congressman William Sulzer of
New York, Congressman James S.
Ravens of Rochester, Thomas M.
Osborne of Albany and Edward NJ.
Shepard of Brooklyn.
Democrats of Rhode Island will!
! assemble in Providence Thursday to
| name candidates for governor and
| other state officers. The two con-
gressional conventions TO nominate
candidates for congress will be held
on the same date.
! The first cabinet meeting after
| the summer recess is scheduled to
| begin in Washington Monday with
all of the Presidents official ad-
visers in attendance with the excep-
ton of Secretary of War Dickinson,
who is travelling in the Philippines.
The meeting will last several days
and the President expects to clear
up number of important matters.
According to rumOr the Ballinger
case may be among the important
subjects of consideration. Immedi-
ately after the close of the cabinet
meeting. on Friday, President Taft
will go to New York, where he is TO
deliver an address the following day
before the convention of the Nation
al League of Republican Clubs.
From New York the President will
return to Beverly. to remain there
until the middle of October.

Interstate Commerce Commission to
begin an important hearing in

PASS COUNTY UNIT
MEASURE
Governor Hay Says Next
Legislature Will Change
Liquor Law.

The initiative and referendum is
sure to come in this state and ii
is coming this year. This is the
statement made to a World repor-
ter by Gov. M. E. Hay at the Com
mercial Club rooms yesterday.
''The referendum is coming be-
cause the people are going to de-
mand 1t. Personally / am not
strongly enthusiastic over it, but /
believe if the people want it it ought
to come. This is a self-government
organization of ours and they ought
to have it if they do want it,
Another important matter of leg
islation to be taken up this year by
the legislature will be that of the
recall. Gov. Hay states that he will
advocate this in his message to the
legislature. He believes that good
measure along the lines of recall for
officials who do not carry out the
will of the people would be a wise
one.
Regarding saloon legislation Gov.
Hay says that the county unit meas
ure will be passed this year. He
states that the majority of the SEN

are in favor of it, and that there is
little doubt but that it will be
