leaders on the situation. 1t is under
stood that the opinion Is held that there
Is little expectation that the republicans
will win this year, and that the old guard
elem.ut would not be altogether sorry IL
the republicans should be defeated. pro-
vided they can shift the responsibility on
Roosevelt. shelve him and prevent the
placing Of the direct nominations law on
the statUtc books.
Not Anxious for Control.
eft Is clear. from remarks which have
been heard At the republican state head
quarters, that even II the Woodruff
Barnes faction found that they could
control the Saratoga convention against
Roosevelt and Griscom, and the sup
porters of the direct primaries principle.
they would be loath to take advantage
OF that control. because they realize that
their majority would be q very small
one, and that IL would mean the keeping
alive OF the direct primaries issue. IL
would be better. they think. and there
is no hesitation in expressing the thought
to lose the state administration for two
years, rather than have their control of
the state machinery menaced by the pas
sage of the direct nominations law.
We are ready to sacrifice the state
to get rid OF Roosevelt is the way some
OF the leaders OF the old guard have ex-
pressed 1t. From their answers to ques-
lions put to them, these men have not
apparently thought Of what would hap
pen to them il Roosevelt should be nomi-
mated, and IL there should he another
case OF Roosevelt luck, which would
mean his election. They have given no
consideration to this possibility. because
they think the democratic convention
will. demand the nomination of Mayor
Gaynor. and that Mayor Gaynor will
respond to that demand, and will win
on election DAY."
Would Disregard Sentiment.
OMAHA, Neb. August c5.-Asked about
statement made In New York by Will
liam Barnes. jr., that Roosevelt had said
that direct primaries are a device of the
demagogues and the millionaires. the
colonel refused to be quoted. but 1t was
said In his behalf that he had never
made such comment. The colonel took
the position that he didn't care to enter
into controversy with Barnes. except
to fight him for the destruction of the
Barnes-Woodruf machine.
Col. Roosevelt said that under no cir
cumstsnces would he consent to run for
the gorernorship. II Barnes and the
others try to create a sentiment for
Roosevelt 50 as to knife him. after Civ
ing him the nomination, he Will utterly
disregard the sentiment and refuse to
run. II his name Is presented in the
state convention and an attempt lis made
to stampede the delegates for him he
will stop II. He believes he cannot AFFORD
to take the governorship.
Mr.. Roosevelt said he would not per-
NIT Barnes and his aids to pick the is
sues Of the campaign. He will insist on
the policies for which he has stood and
the tight will have to be made SO far as
he Is concerned, along these lines.

AFTER TAWNEYS SCALP
PINCHOT TO SPEAK IN MINNIE.
SOTAN'S DISTRICT.
Former Forester to Support His OPP
ponent for Republican Nomina-
ton to Congress.

Clifford Pinchot, former chief forester,
has decided to inject himself into the
campaign which is being waged in the
first Minnesota district, where Repre-
sentative James A. Tawney, chairman
Of the appropriations committee. is said
to be having the fight Of his political
life. Mr.. Pinchot has announced that
he will make one speech in Repre-
sentative Tawney's district, and that 1T
will be in opposition to the Minnesotan.
Il will speak at Rochester. Olmstead
county. about September 2" Mr.. Pinchot
said, although the exact time has not
vet been fixed. The Progressive League
OF Minnesota is in charge of the ar
fragments The opponent of Mr..
Tawney for the republican nomination
is Sidney Anderson of Fillmore county,
q young lawyer of some promise. Early
in the spring Mr.. Tawneys friends felt
somewhat apprehensive as to his political
future. but of late the reports, from
the district have indicated that he was
likely to be renominated.
The effect which Mr.. Pinchots speech
will have upon the district Is the cause
Of much speculation here. The reason for
hts decision to oppose Tawney Is well
Iy for several years. Mr.. Pinchot Is said
10 believe that the Minnesotan lis not
friendly to the Pinchot conservation
methods, and that this disapproval was
shown by efforts to curtail forestry ap-
preparations.
Fight Over Tariff Bill.
Just before Congress adjourned Mr..
Pinchot assailed the republican majority
in the House as the instrument Of spe-
ciaI interests in putting through the
Payne tariff bill. Mr.. Tawney retaliated
by telling his constituents that although
he had made. every effort to have rough
lumber put upon the free list Mr.. Pinchot
had been Instrumental in aiding the de-
feat OF his motion by declaring for pro-
tective duty. Mr.. Tawney charged that
It was Mr.. Pinchot's declaration for a
retention OF the Dingley duties which pre-
vented the adoption of a free lumber
schedule. The newspapers which are sup
porting Mr.. Tawney have printed many
attacks on the former forester, and he
Is going into the first district to answer
these.
II is understood that his speech will
deal principally with Mr.. Tawney's stand
on the tariff and on the conservation OF
natural resources.

NO LOCAL TAXATION
ON LIFE POLICY LOANS
Supreme Court Decides New Orleans
Case in Favor Of Insurance
Company.

That the so-called policy loans" or
premium lien note loans Of insurance
companies are not liable to local taxa
ton was decided today by the Supreme
Court of the United States. The ques-
ton came up in the case of the parish OF
Orleans and the city of New Orleans
against the New York Life Insurance
Company.
The local tax authorities levied a tax
on the agreements between insurance
companies and their policy holders. un-
der which the companies advanced to
their holders the reserve value of their
policies. In the case of the New York
Life Insurance Company it was sought
to tax agreements that totaled $56S 800.
The company brought the suit In the
United States circuit court for the east
ern district Of Louisiana to enjoin the
collection of the tax. That court held
that the policy loans we're not loans in
the ordinary sense of the term, but rather
partial and anticipated settlements by
the company of its ultimate liability un-
der the policies to its policy holders. An
Injunction was issued, from which de-
cree an appeal was brought to the Su-
preme Court Of the United States.

FIRE VICTIMS FUNERAL.
Mrs. Hester Lloyd Will Be Buried

Arrangements for the funeral of Mrs.

Saturday afternoon when an oil heater
exploded in her apartment. at 1859 Dist

Is probable, however, that the body will
be taken to Maryland tomorrow for bur-
ial Mrs Lloyd's husband. who is a hos
pital steward at Old Point Comfort, has
been summoned home.
Mrs Della Sherman. mother of the
dead woman, was more severely injured
than was at first thought. She was so
worried Saturday over the condition of
her daughter that she did not realize
she had been burned. and it was not
until last night that she discovered her
injuries.
A physician was summoned. and II is
likely Mrs. Sherman will have to remain
under treatment some time. Mr.. Buck

an effort to entinguish the blaze and
save the women from being burned. has

Wind Carries Rubbish.

Unless the trash cans and barrels are
kept covered the wind carries the rub
bish into the streets and alleys. We hope
that our plea to the housewives will have
a good effect.
There is a police regulation forbidding
any person to throw waste paper or
other trash into the streets But this
regulation is not enforced as 1t should
be. The police should be more careful
to see that 1t is not violated. Any one
who keeps his or her eyes open on the
streets will see the regulation violated
many times a day. and yet no arrests
are made

MAKE CITY CLEANER
Women Will Distribute Ap-
peaIs to Housewives.
COVER UP TRASH BARRELS
This Is Regarded by Crusaders as
One of the Most Important
Requisites.
COVER UP TRASH BARRELs

Thousands of letters asking the house
wives of Washington to aid in keeping
the city clean will be distributed to-
morrow by the committee of Washington
women appointed at mass meeting held
last spring for the purpose of advancing
the interests of cleanliness in the streets
and parks of the National Capital. Mrs.
Frederick v. Coville, who has been one
Of the mainstays of the movement, is the
chairman of the committee.
Eleven thousand of these letters ask
ing the housewives of the city to see
that the covers are kept on their trash
cans and barrels will be distributed by
women who are interested in the move
ment,' said Mrs. Coyille today. I'VE
believe that the appeal will be more eff
fective X we have them left at the homes
by women who have the cause at heart
than If we put item in the mail. There
fore, fifty of these invitations to aid in
keeping the city clean will be given to
each woman who has volunteered to act
as a carrier. We also urge the house
wives to see to it that the parking in
front of their homes be kept clean.
City Divided Into Districts.
We have divided the city into dis
tricts in order that they may be thor
oughly covered by these invitations. In
Georgetown 1000 of the invitations will
be distributed; in Washington Heights,
1000; in Mount Pleasant, 1000; in the
section north OF P street and west OF
18th street. 1000: in the section between
14th and 18th streets and between L and
u streets. 1000; in the section between
New Jersey avenue and 7th street, LOCO;
in the northeast section. LOCO: in the
southwest section, 1000. The other 1000
are to be distributed in other residential
parts of the CITY,.
''Since We undertook this work of aid
ing In keeping the city clean much has
been accomplished. The people are be-
coming more careful. Also the District
authorities are doing better work along
this line. This morning / saw a trash
cart go by my house with its canvas
