Going Into TRAINING.

During the next few weeks there
viii be much making of medicine by
the politicians who hope to have a
hand in controlling the presidential
nominations of next year.
1t is given out from Washington
that the boom of Governor Harmon
of Ohio viii be formally launched

active literary campaign in his be-
half
Governor Woodrow Wilson Of New
Jersey, generally considered as Har-
mons most formidable opponent. is
already active on his own account.
He does not permit any week to pass
without taking care to make a speech
somewhere for the enlightenment of
his democratic brethren concerning
his views on sundry questions He
endeavors to make it clear that he is
strictly progressive" Perhaps he
dwells on this point because he ap-
preciates the fact that he is under
somewhat Of a handicap from being
championed SO vociferously by Har-
per's Weekly-a journal of civiliza-
ton which is supposed to be owned
by J. Pierpont Morgan
Harmon is classed as a conserva-
tive, and Wilson as radical. but
neither Of them has the support of
William J. Bryan. True. Bryan has
said nothing in opposition to Wilson.
while he has strongly expressed him
self against Harmon. but he is not
supposed to be much, if any, more
partial to Wilson than he is to Har-
mon
Unless Bryan can so manipulate the
machinery of his party as to force
the nomination of himself he prob
ably will come out for Champ Clark.
Not only because Bryan likes him,
hut because of his genuine popularity
with democratic congressman and
many htiIRttdlit ifdA'IS bulSile OF
congress, Clark is a dangerous dark
horse.
on the republican side the issue
promises to shape up more quickly
than on the democratic side 1t is
expected that Senator La Toilette will
very soon declare himself a candidate
for the nomination. and with that
declaration tho republicans of the
country will have before them the
two candidates whose names will go
before the national convention. It is
barely possible that La Toilette really
believes he has a show to take the
nomination away from Mr.. Taft, but
he viii not find many people agree

ROMANCE C0LoRS THE ROW
Love and War, as in the Old Days,
Go Hand I'm Hand in
Mexico.

IL Cervantes smiled SPANS chivalry
away, he failed to carry his influence into
Mexico. That country has always been a
land of romance. The people there have
chung to the habits which grew out of
their old Spanish ancestry and their cli-
matte environment They still nave their
midday siesta, their feast days and holt
days, and spend their money freely and
dress poorly.
The present instruction is full of cpl
sodes that would happen probably in no
other country OF the world. Out of them
the imagination of a Hugo a Dumas or a
Scott might build many a romance OF love
and adventure. For in Mexico love and
fighting still go together. as they used to
do in the days OF medieval knight-er-
rantry.
A striking and at the same time some
what pathetic illustration of this was the
long journey over the desert to the town
of Juarez undertaken by a number of
women, wives, mothers and sweethearts of
the soldiers at the front. Accompanied by
children, cats, dogs and goats, they
travelled more than two hundred miles to
be near the soldier boys, for whom Mex
lean women feel so romantic an attach
ment.
The women had been left behind in Chi
huahua when two battallons of Mexican
Infantry we're sent to the border. Impa-
tient at the absence OF those they loved
they got pushcart loaded 1t with such
necessary articles as 1t would hold and
propelled IT over the dreary wastes and
around burned bridges. taking their turn
In squads at pushing the cart
The journey occupied two weeks, food
being obtained at the few settlements
which lay along the route. Each of these
women might make a heroine of romance.
for they knew neither fear nor fatigue
where love was concerned.
But the romance OF the Mexican Ins,Ir-
rection has not been confined TO the
women. A few days ago General Cuellar.
chief OF staff to President Diaz, who de-
teAted Francisco Maderos army at Casas
Grandes' but lost an arm in the engage
nent, telephoned his condolences to Ma
dero on the death Of the insurgent leader >
father II is said. too, that Madero's son
sent message Of regret to Cuellar on the
latter's loss OF his arm. The two had once
been school fellows together.
All this is very picturesque and romantic
But the present is a practical age, and i'm
pulse and emotionalism need a strong hand
for a guide.-San Francisco ChrontcIa

ANNUAL G. A. R. ENCAMPMENT
Many Men of Note to Attend the An
nual Gathering to BE Held This
Year at Rochester.

ROCHESTER, n. " May 27.-Probably
the biggest event at any national en-
campment Of the Grand Army of the Re-
public since its inception nearly a half
century ago will take place during the
big parade at Rochester, N. Y, on Augunt
%, when scores of bombs will bo shot into
the air, which, upon bursting, will release
beautiful bright-colored American flags.
The flags will remain in the air until
waited upon the breeze and carried across
the horizon. The bombs will be fired every
two minutes during the four or five hours
OF the parade, and the air viii be filled
with these beautiful national emblems.
These shells are one Of the most unique
novelties that has ever been originated and
will be the feature of the encampment,
from the spectacular viewpoint. Nothing
like II has ever been seen at a national en-
campment. The shells will be made in
Japan, the contract for them having been
made by the executive committee, OF which
Colonel Henry s. Redman is executive di-
rector. The bombs will be shipped here
from japan in time for the encampment
The bombs will be exploded from one OF
the highest buildings in Rochester and will
be shot about 1000 feet into the air, when
the tri-colors Of Old Glory will break out,
making one OF the most beautiful and in
spring sights ever witnessed. The silk
tissue flags will be 12x15 feet in size.
Colonel Redman has returned from AL
bany, where he interviewed Governor John
a. Dix and Adjutant General William
Verbeck of the National guard regarding
arrangements for the encampment.
Governor Dix will be in Rochester for the
encampment. as well as President Taft.
Colonel Roosevelt. the governors of ad-
joining states. together with prominent
state officials and Grand Army men.
Adjutant General Verbeck assures Col
onel Redman that the Third regiment of
the National guard. the Third battalion OF
the Naval reserves and a troop OF cavalry
from Syracuse will be on duty during the
national encampment.

The only untoward factor in the situa-

OF certain American socialists to establish
