WILSON MEN IN ROW
Attack on Smith and Nugent
Brings Out Religious Feeling.

A hot old fight within the Democratic
ranks in Essex County, y. j., was indi-
Gated in Newark last night, when at DIFF
ferent places the Democratic County
Committee and the Woodrow Wilson
League held meetings, the Wilson as
semblage disclosing that opinions are
widely at variance within that associa-
ton. The county committee unanimously
Endorsed Wilson and Marshall.
The Wilsonites decided to place a COM
plete county ticket in the field, but the
Smith-Nugent machine postponed action

Joshua Brierley, who recently was de-
feated for Mayor in Newark on an indie
pendent ticket, got into trouble over a
remark construed as having a religious
significance. He referred to James r.
Nugent and James Smith, jr., the Demo

popes," and several Catholics In the audi
ence demanded a retraction.

TAFT STRONG IN ILLINOIS

Ex-senator Mason.
From The Tribune Bureau

Washington, July ls.-Ex-Senator Ma

with the President, said that Illinois
would give Mr.. Taft a big majority next
November. and that the electors Of that
state would cast their votes for him.
I'VE are going to carry Illinois for

tariff issue--the tariff-for-revenue plank

Mason. who was nominated In the Hi

Large from Illinois and says he expects
to be elected.
The Democrats always win in the
summer and lose in the fall, but on the
tariff issue-protection To American In
dustries and workingmen-they cannot
carry Illinois. There will be no trouble
on that issue when we get TO II. l have

Communicates with Taft.
TREASURER A NEW YORKER
No Actual Appointments Yet,
but Some May Be Made To-
day-Plans for Distribu-
ton of Work Perfected.

Plans for the Republican national CAM
paign were discussed for seven and one
half hours Yesterday by Charles d. Hilles,
chairman Of the national committee ana
seven members of the subcommittee OF
that body who were appointed 20 get the
campaign under way.
The most important problem under dis
cussion was the selection of a treasurer
an executive committee, 10 be made UP
entirely of members OF the national COM
mittee, and Of an advisory committee
which will be composed largely OF emil
nent members of the party outside the
national committee. The final selections
were not made, however. as Chairman
Hilles explained that the makeup OF
these committees. which are to be real
active bodies rather than merely per-
functory organizations, would receive
most careful consideration.
Each member Of the subcommittee
brought list Of names with him, and,
with the large number suggested before
them, the subcommittee started the proc
ess of elimination. Chairman Hilles had
a long talk with President Taft on the
long distance tSltpIOlIc idoN hA6'N ~ 80
form him of the progress that had been
made and to get his advice. He said he
probably would have another similar talk
this morning before the subcommittee
went into session again.
Chairman Hilles hopes TO be able to an
nounce the names OF the executive COM
mittee to-day, but the advisory commit
tee will not be made public in all proba-
bility until Chairman Hilles has had q
chance 10 talk with the President IN
Washington next week. 1t may be posi-
BILE TO announce the treasurer to-day but
that is uncertain.

him to take tile place. bat he declined.
When Chairman Hilles went to him day

determination Mr.. Barnard said he in

and would not be UsclS before September

He consented, however 10 give some

"Great Caro- in Selection"

II would be manifestly unfair, Chair
man Hnles said. to indicate the names OF
any Of those who mad been discussed for
the committees. Great care was being
taken In their selection In order TO get
the geographical allotment right, and
what was more important, to get men OF
a variety of experience, views and capa-
blities and Of original ideas.
The campaign organization IL to be
strictly along business lines The MEM
bers of the executive committee are to be
divided into groups one group for each
OF the headquarters. Each member Of
each group will he the executive head OF
some particular bureau OF bureaus, and
will be held responsible Cor It's manage
ment.
There will be a council each day of the
heads OF the various departments where
knotty problems will have the benefit of
their combined wisdom, but in the last
analysis It will be the man at the head
of his department who will carry out the
plans.
The executive committee will be COM
posed Of twelve members. II there IL no
Far Western headquarters; but IT, as is
considered probable II is decided TO est lb-
lish a headquarters In Portland or s)me
other city on the Pacific Slope. the com
mittee will be enlarged so as TO admit a
group OF Western members OF the national
committee.
The advisory committee will be COM
posed OF eighteen members. only two or
three Of whom will be members OF the ma
tional committee. They will also be chos-
en- with due regard to geographical limits.
Most of the members OF the executive
committee will be from Republican states.
but some OF the members Of the executive
advisory committee may be from the
South.

fee, and indeed long after several cigars
had been consumed, the subcommittee
remained around the table, 1t was go
before they separated and went to their
respective hotels. The conference was
called off for the night.

The Growth of Christian Nations.

1t is remarkable fact that to-day
eighty four per cent of the population of
the world is under the Christian flag. In
the year 1900 only seven per cent of the
worlds population lived under Christian
governments. To-day the wealth of the
world is largely in the hands of Christian
nations. Forty-two cents in every dollar
of the worlds wealth is to be found in the
United States. The Lord is letting men
who love him and serve him increase in
worldly possessions. Gods purpose in
this seems to be to trust with his riches
the nations that serve him in order that
they may send the religion of Jesus Christ
to the nations that do not know him. 1t is
also significant fact that the population
Of Christian countries is increasing with
greater rapidity than the population OF
heather countries. The death rate among
heather nations, and particularly the NOR
tality among infants, is greaterin the non
Christian nations than it is in the nations
that have been blessed with the gospel

MAKING A LIFE.

Numbers of men and women look
upon making a living'' as the chief
business Of life. In one sense this is
the right view. To side-step this ne
cessity is to court poverty. Self-pre-
servation is natures first law, but it
is not her highest law.
For many, making life is the
chief business of living. At least it
should be so with every one. If we
aim only to make money, which will
in turn buy food, raiment, shelter and
certain forms of pleasures, we shall
probably make money. Such being
the case, the majority will say we are
successful. The majority Judge by
clothes, houses and automobiles.
All that is needed for making liv-
ing is money. The more money you
have the better the living. Making
living is merely a matter of money.
Making life is matter of character
The fact that dishonest persons can
and do make living does not bar
honest people from the lists, as all
well know. But the fact that you
cannot be dishonest and make life
would seem to bar certain practices
from the right making of a living.
We have been told that honesty
always pays. It does, but not always
in money. We have heard that truth
will triumph. 1t will, but not quickly
The trouble with the most of the
world is that it has been spelling sue.
cess with the dollar mark instead of {
plain $50
1t is perfectly possible to make {
living and a life at one and the same
time. Indeed this is an ideal combi
nation.
To work for money is fine thing
if you work honestly and make goot
use of the money when you have
earned it. But you must never lie
this task prevent you from working
for character, which is a much fine
thing.
You must seek the right balance
between the two. You must maxi
money the able servant of mind an,
you must provide food, raiment AM
shelter for soul as we'll as the body.
Only thus will you find happines
which is the goal which you SHOULD
seek.
