Democratic leaders throughout the country have been de- sirous of hearing what the Democratic governor of New Jersey and former president of Princeton university has had to say on the questions of the time He has obIigingIy responded by accepting as many of the invitations as he could. He is a lawyer, lecturer and historian and probably knows as much about politics from the theoret icaI viewpoint as any other man in America. In recent years he has also picked up a good deal of information about the practical side of the polit ical game.
 Most of the work of preparing for the big Democratic convention in the Fifth regiment armory building in Bal timore, with its 1902 delegates, a like number of alternates and 15,O00 or more spectators, has devolved on Nor man E. Mack of New York, chairman of the Democratic national committee, and on the committees secretary, Urey WoodSon of Kentucky.

PRINCE OF WALES REACHES LEGAL AGE

EF you were 8 boy of eighteen
 would you like to have your own
 H special household. with large A suits suitably appointed and set apart in two palaces with governor and controller of the household, an equerry and two secretaries, as well as a large staff of servants at special wages and coachmen and grooms ?" Such is going to be the pomp and cir cumstance which will surround his royal highness the Prince of Wales after June 23 when he reaches his eighteenth birthday and his legal ma jority.
 An ordinary Englishman reaches legal age when he becomes twenty one Before that time he is an infant in the eyes of the law, but not so with the Prince of Wales, eldest son of the sov- ereign. When he becomes eighteen he becomes a man, with all an ordinary mans rights and privileges and with a great many others that go with his exalted station.
 Among the important rights which go with the attainment of legal age by the Prince of Wales is the ability to ascend the throne and govern without the aid of a regent in case of the kings death Also, in case of the sovereign's dire misfortune or prolonged absence the Prince of Wales may at any time after June 23 act In his fathers place.
 At present Edward Albert, prince of Wales, resides in France, whither he was sent by his father a few months ago to acquire knowledge of the French people. language and customs. King George is desrous of cultivating the friendship of the French.
 So King George and Queen Mary sent their son to the Marquis de Breteuil member of the ancient French aris- tocracy and a very close friend of King Edward The marquis has an Ameri- can wife For months the prince has been there, and he has been studying French life, inspecting the army and the navy. He is a sailor prince by training, like his father, and takes a keen interest in all things naval. After the celebration of his birthday in Eng land, it was announced recently, he will return to Paris In August he will return to England to remain per manently, beginning then his course in Oxford university.
 C The prince is a tall slender. unas- suming sort of person, with a thor oughly English love of sports. He

He is man of engaging personality. a lawyer by training. like all of the Democratic possibilities, and two years on the good side of sixty. He never held office be- fore his election as governor of his state in 1908.
 Two men remain, Underwood and Wilson. The former is the youngest of the nine who are under consideration. He was fifty years old on May G. His talents have shone before the public as legislator, for he has been mem Der of the house of representatives from the Ninth Alabama district for seventeen years. He is a quiet. silent worker, with a reputation for industry earned in committee service. His party members thought so well of him that when they came into control of the house of representatives they made him chairman of the most important committee, that on ways and means.

need be said here of MT. Bryan's rec ord, brought out in sharp distinctness in his three former candidates for the presidency. Until a short time before the opening of the convention he had not said that he would decline the nomination this year. but he had done nothing to further the desires of his friends and had. in-fact. withdrawn his name in several places in which he had been mentioned But he was and is power in the party on which he has made so great an impress

To little children seeking redress for some of the grieVous ills which Oppress the youngsters of crowded streets he is sweet as summer To those who seek him for uEearned favors he is gruff as Boreas. Some folks call him a can tankerous old man, but he is only six ty and is able to do much good work yet.
 Governor Harmon of Ohio.
 Harmon of Ohio has loomed up sev- eral times as a presidential possibility, especially this year. in spite of the open antagonism of William Jennings Bryan and others. To his credit stand two victories in gubernatorial elections of Ohio, the mother of Republican presidents" He is a lawyer of wide learning and served the nation as at torney general in the last Cleveland cabinet. His opponents allege that his corporation affiliations and his age, sixty six, should have barred him from consideration but his friends counter balance these accusations with his un- questioned personal honesty. his firm ness and his capacity for work.
 Now come we to Governor Thomas R. Marshall of Indiana, another of the
