with expectancy. 1t is generally taken
for granted that the Republicans of
the joint committee will absolve Sec
rotary Ballinger. That will also be a
vindication for President TAT. and
Attorney General Wickersham, who
Investigated things a year ago and
pronounced Secretary Ballinger blame
less and efficient.
The bitterness existing between the
secretary and his opponents has been
much empha sized during the week and
more since ne has been upon the wit
ness stand in his own behalf. The
opposition crusade has stopped ar
nothing in an effort to discredit him
and the opinion in Washington is
that the secretary will be fully iusti-
fled. after the joint committee has
vindicated him. in getting rid of the
conservatonists in his own DEPART
ment, who have contributed 10 the
fight against him. However. the
wrangle is apparently to be carried
over into another summer. for the
friends of EXForestcr Clifford Pin
chot are very active paving the way
fer more agitation.
The cam nalSnS are coming on rapid
" in n number of states and these
are causing the President no little
uneasiness. He will be free to give
more attention to them, as soon as
Congress is eff his hands. Every few
days now he is consulting with poll
ticians regarding the developments in
some state. His efforts in behalf of
the recollection Of a Republican House
OF Representatives were begun in
the West on quite n large scale some
weeks ago and the purpose is TO con-
time them right through the heated
term.
The traditions of the office are
against a President making political
speeches in q campaign. although
Presidents often do preliminary work
in spoechmakng by explaining and
defending their own policies and meas
ures which are likely to have a bear
ing upon state and congressional cam
paignc. In his decision to make but
few more speeches and few more
Journeys the President has eliminated
that clement of political activity and
will confine himself to other lines for
the advancement of the partys inter-
ests. He intends there shall be a bat
tie royal, however. and that the Re
rublicans shall put up stiff fight all
over the country
