All for ECONOMY.

BY eliminating these officers from
the payroll the governor asserts that
he will cut down expenses to the ex-
tent Of $4,000 for the remaining portion
of his term, and with that cut, he de-
clares, that he will be able to keep
within the appropriation. He blames
the legislature for cutting down the
regular appropriation of the penten-
tlary $4,000, declaring It's action made
deficiency necessary II the full force
was retained. His administration, he
boasted, would be free from deficien-
cles, and the proud boast he intends to
carry into execution, even If more
drastic measures must be put into ef-
feet, he asserts.

If this had been almost any other man of prominence in this country 1t would have been brass band affair, especially if that man had been candidate for the presidency, and press agents would have reveled in good story inspired from headquarters.
 Tt Is then to be wondered at that thinking men of the democratic party, who are unaffected by the blast of trum- pets, should believe that this quiet, un- assuming, forcefnl leader is democracy's best asset and should be made the party s candidate for the presidency2
 Such are the facts about Underwood and if I mistake not they are well enough known to insure him the nomination.
 The Taft forces in Washington are talk ing on new life, and are much more cheer ful. They are actually oiling up the steam roller in Chicago. and give every indica- tion of putting it into use against the colonel.
 The preliminary practice has won the loud applause of the administration ad- herents, who are now all smiles and ad- will see some lively doings in Chicago
 Considerable comment Is heard here over the large number of federal office holders from the south who have recently been calling on President Taft, assuring him that he could depend upon the loy- atty of the southern delegates. The order of the federal pie is abroad in the land and 1t Is starting into activity many who were luled to sleep over the supposed security of their jobs.

Mo A'2sty of Underwood Er ledrs Him to All Alike,
 Without Regard to Party
By c. E. STEWART

Washington, June 6.-(Special.) )-"one chief characteristic of Oscar Underwood" declared a staunch supporter of the Ala hama statesman who insists that Under wood will be nominated in Baltimore not later than the fifth ballot, and one that endears him to every acquaintance, re- publican or democrat is his great modesty. He constantly avoids all allu- sions to himself and his part in making the great democratic record that the House has been able to put before the country and gives the credit to others.
 He has attained his prominence in the affairs of the nation through sheer ability, and the greatness of his genius for the in- stant comprehension of difficult problems. He does not seek the limelight. but once in 1t, as he is now through the wisdom of his leadership, it does not affect him with it's glare, but he remains as calm and serene as ever
 For instance,'' he continued, "he has just been honored by the Columbia uni versity by having the degree of l.. l.. D. ton, an honor of which any man may justly feel proud and one of which he might with reason boast. but not a word from Underwood. Scarcely anyone knew it. He quietly goes to New York and receives the degrees and is back again deeply appreciative but undemonstrative
