The wise baseball bugs around
Chicago have the story going that
Jimmy Callahan is going to sue
coed Hugh Duffy as manager of
the Sox as soon as Duffy's two
year contract expires this fall. A
part of the same story is that the
versatile James has positively no
chance in the garden with the
speedy youngsters trying for the
teams, and that his little part In
the game with the Sox this sea-
son is to thoroughly acquaint him.
self with the players and their
capabilities, and thus be all ready
to grasp the reins when Duffy
drops out. Callahan and Fielder
Jones both made the White Sox
a good ball team, but Duffy has
not succeeded very well to date,
in spite of the fact that Old Ro-
man Comisky spent a barrel OF
money on talent.

DORY STRONG GAL

Theodore Strong Is trying hard to
make a noise like a leader. Senator
Briggs will be practically the only
Republican at Washington next year
and this meansEa gfsat deal Of patron
age will CONC ASay as long as
there is a Republican President In
the White House. Mr.. Strong is not
slow to realize the value of culti-
waiting the friendship Of Mr.. Briggs
and he will get all hat Ia coming to
him If he possibly can.
Senator Briggs is the recognized
| organization man. He is closely
allied with the Roeblings of Tren-
ton. He was chairman of the Re-
publican State Committee during the
last campaign and is closely asso-
ciated with David Baird and the
| other machine leaders. 1t is natural,
therefore, that Senator Briggs should
listen to Mr.. Strong and 1t is posi-
BILE that he will allow Strong to deal
out the patronage for Middlesez
county. Should this prove to be the
case. every resident of Middlesez
county knows that Senator Briggs Il
doing nothing to strengthen his part,
so far as to restore 1t to power. Al
long as Strong's hand is seen in tht
control In this section there is little
to be hoped Cor on the part of the
Republicans.
The old machine dies hard. Should
1t prove to be true that Strong has
formed an alliance with Briggs IL
order to control the Offices to bt
given out in this section 1t only show!
that the fight must go on unit
every vestige of the old regime il
wiped out.

WATCHING BOTH PARTIES.

With the opening OF the legisla-
ture today the fight for United States
senatorship becomes more acute.
With all the legislators assembled
at Trenton there is bound to be de-
velopments. Men will talk and their
discussions win find their way into
print. AS the matter stands now, II
is evident that Smith is beaten. II
also looks as If the legislators were
going to obey the voice of the peo-
pie, as expressed at the primary, and
elect James z. MARITIME to the United
States senate.
At the conference of the Republi-
can minority held at Atlantic City
Sunday, it was brought out that the
Republicans will stand together I'm
the fight for the senatorship and that
Smith will need to look for no help
in that direction. 1t also looks as
If the Republicans were going to
reap the benefit of the agitation now
on In support Of the primary selec-
ton and vote for former Governor
E. C. Stokes for the senate.
While the Republicans have no
chance to elect their candidate, the
fact remains that their party Is on
record in favor of the primary law
| whereby. the people may express
their preference for United States
senator. Should the Republicans
vote for anyone else than Mr.. Stokes
they would show just al much dis
regard for their party platform as
the Democrats if the latter refuse to
send Mr.. MARITIME to the senate. 1t
will be good politics for the Republi-
cans to support Mr.. Stokes, for they
have the great task before them of
winning back the confidence of the
people and this cannot be done by
ignoring the peoples vote at the
primary.
Several other assemblymen have
come out in favor OF MARITIME since
Mr.. Wilson made his great speech in
Jersey City and there is no doubt
that many who are remaining silent
on the question will be found in
favor of the popular choice when the
vote is taken. In nc other way can
the Democratic party retain the
confidence that the people have
placed in it.
