A Summary.

These are the important things
that have come out of the cruel
hle of politics of recent times. Lo-
cal conditions in certain sections of
the state have contributed to Cruces
growing strength The school land
lessees are for him. They fear the
doctrines of Murray Church men
are for him because he is religions
as well as because he is able. Bank.
ers are for MIN because they believe
him capable of managing the affairs
OF a great corporation like the state
Merchants are for him because they
know ne stands for reasonable
freight rates and commercial growth.
Farmers are for him because they
tire assured that he is their friend
In so far as legislation directly af-
fecting them is concerned and be-
cause they know that his influence
in the enacting of any law will be
in their behalf because the farmer
is in some way affected by every
law on the statutes.

Murray Is Weak.

Murray has lost heavily because
of his advocacy of worn-out issues
and theories and his advance of
many of the practical things that
the people want to hear discussed
While republicans were going all
over the state-in every county
township, town and precirct-spread-
ing the bold assertion that the ad-
ministration has been extravagant
and the governor guilty of mal-con-
duct, Murray never uttered word
in the administrations defense. And
all the while Ross was adding to the
republican din and contributing to
the republican press bureau. Cruce
is the only man of the three who
has defended the administration and
his defense has made him thou
sands OF votes where the loyal men
the party like to hear the lauda-
tiOn of its name.

Ross Going Backward.

Leslie p. Ross ten days ago had
a chance TO poll about 25,O00 votes.
Some of mis- lieutenants today will
not cOncede him over $4,000. and
they fear that his losses between
now and August ? will be heavier
than during the past ten days
Early in his campaign it looked as
If there might be an issue or a set
of ISSUES on which Ross could make
a good showing. but conditions have
shown that the people at this time
are not ready to submit to re-
peal of the prohibition law Such
conditions have driven many OF his
friends, who do not care to support
a losing candidate, to decide be-
tween the other men who hold to is
sues of far more Importance at this
time. Ross fight against the COVER
nor has not been popular, In fact,
1t has become more unpopular day
after day, proportionately more un-
popular than the popularity of the
governor has grown, and the latter
has been so marked as to become
the topics OF the times all over the
state. Mr.. Ross has 10 other issues
that are important. His fight against
the statewide prohibition sentiment
and against the governor has failed
to create a ripple that did not die
in the bay far removed from the
great ocean of popular sentiment.
Some of Ross leading supporters
have gone to Cruce for the reason
that Ross hasn't an issue worth the
name, and they see in Cruce the
qualifications for governor who
would give all classes of the peo-
pie a fair administration.

HEARST AFTER THE BOYS
Will Try His Theories on Them
Through Medium of the Boy Scout

Zip. bng, bang! The American Row
Scout was incorporated yesterday in tho
Supreme Court The name of the naw nv
ganization might indicate that the mem
bers were banded together TO get on tho
trail or Mayor Gaynor for depriving them
of their usual Fourth of July celebration
but their purposes are quite the contrary
The first name on the list of incorpora,ors
is William Randolph Hearst, who hereto
fore has spent much time In trying to in
duce older American scouts to accept his
theories on governmental policies and poli-
tics. 1t rumored that Mr. Hearst
hoped to succeed In moulding the American
mind in its infancy that his political
future might yet be glorious one
Now, In the first place, the incorporators
of the American Boy Scout purpose to pro-
mote, teach and inculcatc in the youth OF
the United States a spirit of loyalty and
obedience to the government of this Re-
public and to familiarize them with It's
history, its economic progress and its civic
and military institutions: to educate the
American boy to a finer spirit of loyalty
and obedience to his parents and to his
mental. moral and physical training to the
end that the youth of the state and of the
Republic generally may be better and more
adequately equipped TO perform the duties
and obligations of citizenship.

CAUSES, ARRESTS AS BRIBERS
Hotel Man, Who Lost 81, Complains OF
Attempts to Get Him Away.

Charles NJ. Hill, a Western hotel man.
while going through 46th street last Satur-
day morning was stopped by two men,
He lost a pocketbook containing some
papers and SO, and after a struggle detec-
tives arrested Thomas Tomeo and Harry
Jacobs A minute later the pocketbook
and papers were found lying on the ground
but the money had vanished.
The men were charged with larceny and
placed under bail by Magistrate Herman
in the West Side court The magistrate
complained that men saying they were
members of the Hesper Club, an East Side
political organization, were constantly
ringing him up to intercede for the men.
and Mr. Hill said that several attempts
were made by telephone to have him quit
the prosecution. Finally he made an ap-
pointment for the West 2Sd street ferry
Yesterday morning, and two detectives
hid themselves where they could hear the
conversation.
It was alleged that an offer of $500 was
made by two men calling themselves
Joseph Cohen and William c. Tucker. OF
this 800 was to be given to Mr. Hill if he
would get on a ferryboat and the other
$500 on the Jersey side if he took train
and went West. The men were arrested
and locked up, but Magistrate Appleton
discharged them for lack of evidence.

Radical Reorganization of Bu-

There is feeling of uneasiness about
the detective bureau at Headquarters
these days and no one knows what will
happen next The appointment of Inspector
John E. Russell was a jolt for the old
timers about the bureau. but they got a
more severe one in the discovery that
Third Deputy Commissioner Kirby has
been relieved of other duties and for the
last three weeks has been devoting his
entire attention to the detective bureau.
He has been in consultation with Inspec-
tor Russell for some time, and measures
to bring about radical changes are ex-
pected almost any time. Tomorrow will
be the last day for turning In detailed re-

Kirby and Russell will use the data IN

kidnapped children, but we were agreed
that they did not kill them. When the
family refused to give up money, the child
was left at some place to find his way home,

COUNT HOCHBERG LOSES
Cottonwood Greek Stock He Sold
a Swindle, Says Court.

Justice Amend dismissed yesterday the
suit brought by Count Hans Ferdinand
Won Hochberg, former chum of the German
Crown Prince, against Noah E. Barnes,
the convicted president of the Cottonwood
Creek Mining Company. Other defendants
were S. Frederick Barnes, Arthur D. We'll
Ter and Edward l.. Miller.
Count Won Hochberg, who was a protege
of Barnes, represented the Cottonwood
Creek company in Germany, where he sold
large blocks of its stock to his friends of
the German nobility. Barnes was convicted
in April last of embezzling $4,000 of the
company's money. He was sentenced to
four years in Sing Sing, but remains in the
Tonbs awaiting the outcome of an appeal.
His conviction was due largely to the tes-
timony of Won Hochberg. The count sued
to set aside a vendors agreement made
with Barnes on the ground of fraud and
asked for an accounting. He said that he
also represented other stockholders He
said that Barnes received most of the
and divided much of it in the payment of
large salaries to the defendants
In dismissing the suit Justice Amend
sald The plaintiff admits that he has re-
ceived share of the proceeds of the sale
OF this stock, and offers to account for all
moneys he has received az agents commits
sions or otherwise He does not however
offer to return the money. The recital of
the facts makes it apparent that the de-
fendant corporation was formed for the
sole purpose of swindling prospective pur-
cnasers out of their money"
