paper is taken in hand at the break
fast table. The great quadrennial
game is now at the very choicest stage.
And it is more than game, because
for great many people it is past
time. We can well enjoy every detail
for the moment. For as the weeks fly,
candidates will score advantage and the
zest of the thing may suddenly depart
when the bagging of delegates is well
under way.
All sorts of new tangled develop
ments tread heel and toe. Up at Oyster
Bay sort of new political court has
come into being, as men, who would
give Roosevelt another term come and
go. There is very much the same kind
of a political court at Washington,
where scores and hundreds of workers
are fastening in from all over the coun-

And with all this gayety, political,
and with all the buzzing of many voices
as to what it signifies, there comes
Marse Henry Watterson, valiant, re-

it is only to settle differences between
himself and the Honorable Senator Till
man, of South Carolina, broken in
health but fiery as of yore. The court
of honor's the thing What does it
matter what this court is abouts 1t is
secondary that Marse Henry has cast
off the Honorable Woodrow Wilson, as
a presidential candidate, because of in
gratitude to hackers. Marse Henry
gives his reasons for the casting off
and the Honorable Tillman delares
flamboyantly that Marse Henry does
not go into the details sufficiently for
man of his high sense of honor.
Marse Henry likes the appearance Of
combat; he likes to make people talk
and when he is accused of trying to tie
the Honorable Woodrow WILSON, up
with that mighty magnate, Thomas f.
Ryan, he suggests a court of honOri
Tinsel Stuff.
That incident will be hardly exhaust
ed, however, before there will be some.
thing else equally exciting in political
tactics and then something else while
the play is on. Then after a
while all this tinsel stuff-more
or less material, however, in making
an impression upon the public mind
will be thrust isde. Six months from
now one must look up an expert politi-
cal chronicler to recall all the highly
tity things that are now monopolizing
public attention. But it "goes' in the
making of President, or rather in the
making of two presidential nominees.
The man of any political Importance
at home, who comes down to Washing
ton these days, can have mighty inter-
esting visit for while, if he arrives in
town with "an open mind There are
lots of boomers watching for him, ready
to overwhelm him with courtesy and
arguments. They will tell him rosy
stories, assure him that this incident or
that, is exceedingly significant or does
not amount to anything at all, accord

didate.
The Democrats.
Be he Democrat, still with an open
mind, he may fall first into the hands
of the Champ Clark boomers. Outward
ly the Champ Clark boom is most con
spicuous of all the Democratic booms,
as far as Washington is concerned.
There are plenty of trusted workers to
lead him gently to that corner room, at
the moment when the Speaker escapes
from his duties on the floor. The
Speaker win shake him by the hand,
talk pleasantly upon almost any topic,
generally avoid the subjects of the pre-,
sidential nomination, but show a most
friendly and dignified interest in the
visitor. -Four years ago the same pro.
ceeding was under way in the same
quarters, but that was while Speaker
Joseph G. Cannon was grooming for the
Presidency.
The Democrat with an open mind
will not be long at the Capitol, however
before Wilson boomers viii get him.
They keep tab on the arrivals. From
the Democratic senators and represen-
tatives these Wilsonites learn who is
ON the way TO Washington, ascertain
what time his train pulls in and where

in question, have no apology tC

if legitimate material for criticism

as is contained in the circular re

WIFE is IN NO HURRY
William Ray Is Still Behind the Bars;
500 Hasn't Shown Up to
Pay Fine.

William Ray, the man who is serV
ing a ninety day sentence on the
hill for insulting a lady last week
received a letter the other day from
Walnut Grove, which Ray claimed
conveyed the comforting informa
ton that Mrs. Ray would arrive
in a few days with the 500 with
which to pay his fine. 1t is now
alleged by one of the other pris
oners in the county Jail who saw the
letter, that Rays wife was not very
much inclined to pity him and was
not going to hurry at all about get
ting him out of Jail. In fact, she
is wondering how it happens that
her devoted husband could be sen
fenced to SO long term for sc
small an offense as he claimed to
be guilty of. 1t is alleged by the
Tracy papers that Ray asked the
woman he insulted for a quarter
and Mrs Ray wants to know what
her hubsand has been doing with
all his money. AS yet, she is rathe;
undecided whether to help him out
or not. Ray says that he can ge;
the money any time he wants 1t but
he likes his hotel very well and
wants to have plenty of time to de
liberate on what course he will pur
