BIDDEFORD POOL, Me-, July 2s.-
Wireless telegraphy brought to President
| Taft early yesterday afternoon the news
of the nomination of Warren G. Harding
as the republican candidate for Governor
| of Ohio President Taft seemed delight
ed over the outcome in Ohio
The President has very high estimate
of Mr.. Harding. He said that with the
possible exception of former Senator For
aker he regarded Mr. Harding as the best
campaigner in the state of Ohio on either
side. Mr.. Taft said Mr.. Harding is a
forcible and eloquent man, and he gave
every indication in his informal discussion
of the situation that he looked upon Mr.
Harding as about the strongest man the
convention could have selected.
The President made it plain that at no
time had he opposed the nomination of
James r. Garfield Both in conversation
with the Ohio leaders and in written COM
munications the President expressly stat
ed that if Mr.. Garfield should be the NOM
inee he would tender him his hearty
support.
Harding's Prediction in February.
Mr.. Taft related in this connection an
incident of last February, when Mr..
Harding called on him at the White
House in Washington. Mr.. Harding said
he had come to the President because
he had heard Mr.. Taft had decided to
support Garfield for the nomination. The
President replied that the report was
entirely without foundation. He said he
was not interfering in the Ohio situation
in any way, and would not
Then said Harding, enthusiastically,
81 will be the next Governor of Ohio"
Mr.. Taft said the nomination of Harding
was most pleasing, and he hoped the can
didate's prediction as to his success would
come true.

CONDITIONS IN PORTUGAL.

With such r'gor is the censorship
exercised in Lisbon that group OF
correspondents sent special mes
seuger to the French frontier yester-
day to hand in uncensored messages.
Correspondents complain that all
reference to the scandalous action OF
the populace toward the monks has
been expuuged from the kilograms.
They declare the desire OF the new
government is to create the opinion
abroad that absolute tranquility pre-
walls Such, however. is not the case.
Attacks against religious orders con-
tinue. The latest act Of the populace,
who believed that the monks still hide
in the dungeons Of the monasterles,
was to send for quantities OF sulphur
and other chemicals and endeayor to
smoke them out.
The government is reported to be
particularly desirous that silence be
maintained concerning an incident in
which the cruiser Des Moines was
concerned. On Sunday night the ship
was visited by a Portuguese officer,
who gave the commander warning
that he was in danger OF attack by
torpedoes and also from submarine
mines. AS result the crew OF the
cruiser was on the Qui vive all night,
but beyond the fact that searchlights
played upon them nothing happened.
Inquiries the following day seemed
to show there was no cause for alarm.
British cruisers received similar warn
ing and failed TO obtain any explana-
ton. The authorities are most anxious
to stihe the Whole incident.
An English nun named Tipping,
whose mind had become deranged as
n result OF her experiences during the
recent fighting between street mobs
and the clericals, yesterday committed
suicide. She jumped from window
on the third floor Of the house occupied
by the secretary Of the British legation,
where she had been given shelter, and
was instantly killed.

GAYNOR AND MITCHELL BREAK

Mayor Gaynor, of New York, and
John Purroy Mitchell came to an open
break yesterday on the question OF po-
lice neglect in dealing with gambling
and other vice.
The mayor charged that list OF sus-
pected places compiled by Mr.. Mitchell,
as acting mayor, was prepared in a
sensational newspaper office" and
trumped up for purposes Of scandal
and sensation.
Mr.. Mitchell answered that the
charge was a deliberate lie, and in
turn made the accusation that the
mayor was attempting to create pub
lie misconception OF true conditions:
He again stated that Police Commits
ioner Baker had failed to obey orders
and was incompetent,
That the rupture was so great as to
preclude any possibility OF reconcilia-
ton was conceded on all sides. 1t is
regarded as inevitable now that the Off
cial quarrel will embroil the entire
fusion administration and result in a
realignment of forces. 1t is regarded
as certain that the fight will extend to
every branch of the administration.
Since Mayor Gaynor returned to the
City Hall, following his two months
absence, he has intimated several times
that he did not approve the course
taken by Mr.. Mitchell when acting
mayor in directing a crime investiga-
tion. The mayor had intimated that
the action was inspired by desire for
publicity. In letter to Commissioner
Baker yesterday, the mayor not only
discredited Mr.. Mitchell's entire con-
duct, but intimated that it was a con-
spiracy OF his enemies, in which the
acting mayor had been an accomplice.
COST or THE PANAMA CANAL.
1t is estimated that $47, ,920, S4S will
be required to continue the construction
Of the Panama canal during the fiscal
year, beginning July l next. The
principal items are 1921, 1906 for
skill and unskilled labor, and 49,
1856, 751 for the purchase and delivery
of material and supplies.
An estimate OF 81 900, ,001 is submit
ted for the relocation Of The Panama
Railroad. The total estimates are
slightly less than those submitted for

ABUSE OF FRANKING PRIVILEGE

The Whitman county grange is to
be commended for protesting against
the abuse of the franking privilege
by congressman. If congressman did
not use the free mail privilege for
Transporting effects which have no
relation to the public service what
ever, the deficit in the postal depart
ment would not be so great. There
can be little occasion for transport
ing case after case of books (said
cases which frequently contain pure
" personal effects) with free delivery
included back and forth from the
congressman's home to the national
capital when the facilities of the con-
gressional library are so complete
and convenient. Tons of documents
are sent out each year which nobody
wants. If the ranking privilege
were limited to a reasonable number
of letters and documents, there would
be a disposition to use some discrimi-
nation in material sent out. But
congressman like sinecures and they
will continue to enjoy them until a
public demand is made for them to
cease. The protest of the Whitman
grange should be taken up by other
organizations.
