CLOSING WEEK OF a RE
VARIABLE CAMPAIGN.

This is the closing week of what is
likely to pass into history as one of
the most remarkable campaigns in
American politics. 1t is true it does
not possess that surprising interest
that attaches to a Presidential cam
paign. but the issues involved are OF
an Importance unusual for political
contest in other than a Presidential
year.
In the first place. the control OF the
House l. at stake, but this is by no
means all. There is involved. too, and
in no Indirect fashion, the question Of
what clements are to control the Sen
ate. and to what extent the old regime
in that body. which Senator Aldrich
has dominated, Is to lose its grip.
Many predictions are made that the
Senate will be Democratic, but while
this Is not TO be taken seriously, there
is reason TO believe the Democrats Will
greatly increase their strength in the
upper house, and that in the changed
situation the Democrats and insur-
gents together will control.
It is not at all beyond the bounds
of likelihood that the Democrats will
make such gains in the Senate as to
enable them, unless the Democratic
wave recedes, to gain control Of the
Senate two years hence
Important gubernatoriaI elections
are forthcoming. In the list OF gov
crnorships at stake are those of New
York. where Dix and Stimson are has
ing a hard struggle; of Ohio, where
Judson Harmon expects TO be re-clect-
ed: of New Jersey, where Woodrow
/ Wilson. former president Of Princeton,
( is making a great campaign; OF Massa-
chusetts. where the Foss-Draper coz
( test Is much closer and harder than
was expected when Foss was first
nominated: Of Connecticut, where
Judge Baldwm's speeches are attract
inc wide notice. and of various other
States that might be mentioned.
/ In addition, the campaign involves
numerous State offices and Lcgisla-
lures. to say nothing of local offices.
But the Importance of the campaign
projects itself a good deal further than
the question of what party or element
controls the House. the Senate, and
various State organizations. The out
come of the elections November S viii
undoubtedly have bearing on tho
Presidency in 1912 The view express
ed by Senator Root in New York. that
an overwhelming Republican defeat
would be looked on as reputation o
the Taft Administration, and would
be likely to cause the next Republican
national convention to east about fol
Moses for 1912 Roosevelt or som,
one more radicals not without logic
however much some may dislike Mr.
Roots assertion of it.
On the Democratic side, there is
distinct feeling that either Harmon, o
Ohio, or Wilson, of New Jersey, if h
is elected, is likely to be the Presiden
tial nominee two years hence.
Down at bottom, there is a stron
sentiment that the chief issues OF thi
, campaign are economic, that the
reach to the tariff and to the cost O
living, to whatever may have a bear

Coal on the Increase.


The Geological Survey announced that
i'm 1850 the total production OF coal was
i. ISL. 80 short tons while in 1903 #
amounted TO H5.Si2,6sS short tons. or
nearly six times The amount or 1850.
The quantity of 6rewood used IN
farms varies on account Of influences g,
such as climate, distance from coal
fields, development OF transportation
facilities. and progreSsiveness OF the
consumers.
Except in the PaCidc coast States and
In Arkansas. Louisiana. and Missouri.
the consumption OF wood on the farms
west OF the Mississippi river is compare
lively snaU. The States north OF ,he
Ohio river use less hIrwood perfarm than
those south Of IL. il Is explained largely BY
the fact that in the North stoves burn
ing coal are commonly used. while IN
the South, open wood nreplaces ~
more general. Not only Is relatively lit
tie coal used in the South. but freplaces
require large quantities Of wool
Wood In the East
In The New England States and IN
the South Atlantic States rather more
wood is used than in the Middle Atlantic
States. which are within a short dis
lance OF coal fields and which have
good transportation facilities.
Twenty-siX States reported an annual
consumption Of more than l,Jo0.9,
cords each, while six of these States
reported more than 100000 cords each

Chicken Pic.

Chicken pie is, or was once. an in
dispenssble feature of a New England
Thanksgiving dinner. The crust, to
have the genuine stamp. must be a rich
biscuit dough. and the mode of pro-
cedure Is as follows: Joint up W
fowls or three half-grown chickens, add
q few finger strips of salt pork and
simmer half an hour; remove the lar
ger bones and arrange the joints care
fully in a deep, laring earthern dish
our grandmothers used a milk pan
pointing the bones toward the center
to facilitate serving. Reduce the liquor
to two cups, and remove the fat, add
one cup of sweet cream and thicken
with two tablespoons of roux. Season
with celery, salt Inc paprika, and pour
over the chicken. Flo the crust, take
one quart of sifted pastry flour, four
teaspoons of baking powder, and n
teaspoon of salt, and sift together
twice; melt one-half cup Of butter and
add 1t warm to n pint of sweet milk;
mix with e fork, and roll gently ne
half inch thick; lay a rim an inch wide
around the top Of the dish, wetting it
with milk to make it adhere; roll the
rest to fit the top, make a deep cross in
the center, turn back the corners and
insert a stiff cone of buttered paper:
bake IS minutes, then brush over with
the yolk of an egg beaten with two
table spoons of milk n bake for 10
minutes longer.
