Between Taft and Harmon.

Governor Harmon has had a longer
official career than any of his prospec-
tive rivals for the nomination. He was
attorney general i'm Cleveland's cabi-
net, and has been much before the
public in the last fifteen years. 1t
will be claimed, at least. that he could
carry Ohio for president.
Many Republicans believe that after
all is said their party will be com
PEELED to renominate President Taft,
The president is said to entertain that
opinion himself. The only alternative
now seems to be Roosevelt, against
whom there are now stronger objec-
lions than appeared before the cleo
ton, or some insurgent out of the
West, like Senator Cummins of Iowa
or Senator La Toilette of Wisconsin.
But it is doubtful whether either of
these westerners could carry big east
ern states like New York and Massa-
chusetts against "A fairly acceptable
Democrat
Governor Harmon will be sixty seven
years old when the new administration
comes i'm. Although a well preserved
man. he is a little beyond the age of
presidential candidates. The radical
Democrats of Ohio-and they are very
numerous-have supported him stead
tasty. None the less, as a presden-
tial aspirant he must face the critic
ism that he has been a corporation
lawyer and has been suspected Of re-
dictionary tendencies.
1t probably will not be at all to Gov
ernor Harmon's advantage that Gov
ernor Marshall of the neighboring state
of Indiana is also looking for the pres
idential nomination. The Hoosier will
| hardly attain il, but he is tower of
strength with the Indiana voters and,
with an eastern candidate for presi-
dent he would be a very valuable vice.
presidential nominee.
AS to Combinations.
AS matters stand right at the TIRES
! hold of this contest for the nomina-
ton. Wilson and Marshall look like a
| formidable combination. 1t might be
Dix and Marshall, or more remotely
Gaynor and Marshall. The South, New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut and In
diana is a historical combination.
But If the Harmon boom makes
great Roadway, the ticket might read
Harmon and Foss. 1t is not beyond the
probability that New England Demo-
Gratis will be tying up with the
Ohioan, especially if Dix and Wilson
do not develop up TO the popular
expectations. 1t might read Harmon
and Dix or Harmon and Wilson.
The contest promises to be the great
big feature of national politics al
Washington from now on. 1t will
range along the lines already discrib-
ed. The records and achievements OF
the two or three leading figures VIII

STARS PROPHECY WAR.
A California Astroloser Predicts Con-
flct With Japan.

In a pamphlet entitled "War Prophe-
cies." Stuart Armour predicts that af-
ter careful astrological calculation
war between the United States ana
Japan will occur in 1911. Mr.. Armour
Is so sincere in his belief that he mas
issued the pamphlet at his own ex-
pense in order to give the people OF
this country sufficient warning to pre-
pare for the coming war. Mr.. Armour
is not a professional astrologer. He is
u member of the bar of Washington
and of California, and a resident OF
San Francisco. Speaking of the com
ing war Mr.. Armour says:

close of 1911 Japan will be ut war
with the United States. This result

Washington, Nov. 1S.-Before he
returns to Washington from his Pam
anna trip, President TAFT will have ac-
cCmpllshod thee principal things
, First, he will have completed his an
.ual message 10 the congress of the
United States. Second, he will have
/ probably fixed opinion as To the ne
.essity OF non-necessity of terrifying
The big waterway. Third. he will have
m approach to an estimate of what
he tolls must be i'm order TO satisfy
the commercial nations and yet TO
,eep the canal from being too heavy
l financial burden on the backs OF the
American people.
The day of the opening of the canal
seemingly draws closer, with know
ledge that the question of charges for
the passage of ships from ocean TO
| ocean is TO be taken mp in serious
vein. No one now, apparently, doubts
that the army engineers, the work
ing heads of the enterprise will fail
to keep their promise to end the work
on the day fixed. The progress of the
| ,anal operations has astonished the
engineering world. Accidents may
happen, but almost every possible
trouble has been marked and guarded
against The engineer officers have
| their minds as alertly on the future
as they have on the present. Person
nj regulations are at stake and the
credit Of the engineering corps Of the
army is i'm the balance. and no one
realizes this more intensely than the
three officers who from the time they
were ordered to Panama have stuck
soldier like to their duty.
| President Taft once was asked how
lit happened that he as secretary of
war and Mr.. Roosevelt as president
finally made up their minds to take
| the canal work out of the hands Of
the civilian engineers and 10 turn IL
over to the army The surprise was
near a shock when Mr.. Taft gave a
considerable part of the credit for the
change to civilian influences. 1t is
probable that some of the great COM
lmercial concerns deeply interested in
the success of the work at Panama
made the bold suggestion to President
Roosevelt and Secretary Taft that in
asmuch as civilian engineers seemed

washington, Nov. 1S.@The upper

Western men now arriving in WASH

Governor elect Foss of Massachu-

presidential gossip that permeates
Washington. He has already become
a Democrat of national reputation.
Senator's and representatives speak of
his Characteristic of winning whatever
office he is nominated for and of the
very great influence he has had in

A very aggressive campaign for
