ernor in New Hampshire, New York,
! Michigan, Wisconsin,, Kansas, Colora-
do and California. The candidates In
South Dakota, Nebraska and one or
| two other states are regarded as at
least mildly progressive.
The entire %insurgent membership OF
the house, thirty or more, were re-
nominated, with the exception of
Fowler Of New Jersey and Hinshaw
Of Nebraska, who were retired, and
Townsend, Gronna and Poindexter,
who were advanced to the senate.
Pr~ogressives were named in the places
Of all these. except Fowler, and to
balance his loss George L. Record, the
leader Of the new idea" men in the
| state, was nominated In another dis
trlct.
Not only have the progressives held
their own, but they have gained the
following nominees for congress: Two
in California, III in Oregon, n in
Washington, n in Idaho, n in Min
nesota, n In Colorado, four in Kan
sas, three in Illinois, M in Wisconsin,
one in Michigan, in Ohio and one
in New York. A number of regulars
have experienced a change of heart,
have been convinced by the rising
tide, or have been instructed by their
constituencies and have declared for
progressive principles, notably In South
Dakota, Kansas and New York.
Thus 1t Is seen that the progressives
have from six to ten senators to fight
for, from seven to ten governors and
fifty or more congressman. Inasmuch
as this is the first campaign in which
they have taken a hand nationally, that
is not such a bad showing.
1t begins to look as though the insur-
gent tail would wag the stand pat dog
AS to the election In November, there
be prophets and prophets, but I am not
one of them. Yet a glance over the
field will perchance not be amiss.
Four elections have already been
held, and all have contained some sig
niflcance for progressives. The over
turning in Maine was not a little due
to insurgency and was a warning to
standpatters everywhere. The same
was true of the slump in Vermont. In
Georgia the progressive Democrats first
nominated and then elected Hoke
Smith governor and retired two Can
non Democratic congressman. In Ar
kansas direct legislation won.
From the remaining forty-two states
we can eliminate those In the south
that are certainly Democratic. Ten
nessee presents a battle-ground. There
the independent Democrats have in
dorsed the Republican candidate for
governor and stand a chance of win
ming. The regular Democrats have
dominated Senator Robert L. Taylor.
Should Taylor win there viii be two
senators to elect from Tennessee.
New York Democrats are not so sure
of victory as they were before Roose-
welt won the Republican state conYen-
ton and Boss Murphy and the inter-
ests ran their own. The progressive
Democrats and the decent elements Of
all parties are in revolt against Tam
m~anyizing the state. With a whirl-
wind campaign By the colonel there is
a fair prospect of Republican victory.
That viii mean-a progressive gov.

congress and doubtless a progressive

STORY Of THE BREACH Between ENGLANDS
DEAD SOVEREIGN AND GERMAN EMPEROR

Berlin, June 9.-Now that Edward
is dead. little details of his hostility
toward Kaiser Wilhelm, which have
been carefully kept in the dark for
several years, are being brought to
light.
The great quarrel between them as
rulers broke out during the kaiser's
visit to London at the beginning of
Edwards reign in January. 1901.
1t was an open war Of words, a
sharp personal collision in which Bit
ter and angry things we're said on
both sides. What is moro extraordi-
nary is that it took place in the pres
ence of quite a number of witnesses.
both English and German-these wit
nessse being the members Of Edwards
suite and the members of Wilhelm's
suite. together with a few privileged
guests at the English court.
The couriers and statesmen and
officers stood aghast as the two great
est monarchs of the world engaged in
this verbal strife.
Uncle Edward Resented II.
The cause was this: William.
though nearly two decades younger
than Uncle Edward. had been reign
ing for thirteen years when Edward
ascended the throne. After the fun
eral of Victoria. which Wilhelm at
tended. the kaiser offered the new
king some friendly advice on how to
govern England. 1t was we'll meant,
but ofticious.
Uncle Edward resented Nephew
Williams presumption and chided
him. This was the personal quarrel
which exercised so unhappy an effect
on the relations between Germany
and England throughout Edwards
reign.
There had been previous quarrels.
In 1893 the kaiser visited the Cowes
regatta. While there he received a
private and confidential letter from
Queen Victoria mentioning the danger
of an Anglo-French war over some
dispute between England and France
in Siam. The kaiser discussed this
letter in the presence of Edward
(then Prince of Wales, and the gen.
tlemen of his own suite and of the
Prince of Wales suite.
Edward resented this treatment Of

1t is thrilling tale of the sea that
Capt. Erickson and his crew tell.
Struck by the heavy storm the Good
news sprung a leak. All hands re-
mained continually at the pumps, but
failed to keep her afoat and at noon
Of June 8, the ship was abandoned.
The captains daughter showed great
bravery and after the Goodnews went
to the bottom she cheered the men.
At times it seemed as though the two
little boats would be swamped by the
huge waves. A sail was rigged and
one boat towed the other. Little pro-
gress was made, however, and there
seemed no hope. Three days and
nights passed slowly. Only a little
hard bread and half gallon of water
comprised the provisions.

no secret of 1t. Then there was also
wordy dispute between the two men
in the presence Of others.
Another dispute at the same time
arose over racing. The kaiser's yacht
Meteor had sailed unfairly and vas
disqualified from the prize. But the
kaiser protested against tho disQuali-
fication. and the umptres Yielded to
him, not because he wa9 right, but be.
cause they thought It better to defer
to foreign sovereign visiting their
own court
Called King . Rake.
Subsequently. during tho earlier
years of Edwards reign. he resented
some criticisms which the kaiser pas
sed on his private life. On one occa-
sion. among his ofncers at Potsdam.
William referred to Edward - q rake.
and especially criticised his relsttons
with Mrs. Keppel. These remarks Of
the kaiser were reported to Edward
in London. and he retorted:
Tell Nephew William to concern
himself with his pet toy. the German
feet"
This again was reported to William.
and the scornful refsrsnce Of his navy
angered him beyond measure.
Who was the gossiper who carried
this tittle-tattle between Berlin and
London and thus exercised q very un-
favorable effect on Anglo-German re-
lations. and even menaced tho peace
Of Europe? The chief culprit was
Prince Albert of Schleswtg- -Holstein,
son of Prince Christian Of Schleswig-
Holstein. Princess Christian ID the

the kaiser's late mother. so that Al

Guards at Potsdam. is first cousin to
