BULLDozINe A GREAT PARTY.

In 1904 Theodore Roosevelt selected
Elihu Root to be Temporary Chairman
of the Republican National Conven-
ton. Mr.. Root made the speech that
presented the record of the Roosevelt
and Mr.. Roosevelt
printed it as an important campaign
document A year later he made Mr..
Root Secretary of State in his Cabi-

In 1912 Mr.. Roosevelt is having a
brain-storm because Mr. Taft has Sc
lected Elihu Root to be Temporary
Chairman of the Republican Nation
al Convention.
The Elihu Root of 1912 does not diff

1904 except that he Is no longer
Thomas F. Ryan's attorney and he is
not in favor OF Mr.. Roosevelt's noml-

he is the same Elihu Root whom Mr..
Roosevelt described eight years ago

The Muse A FILTER
TO STRAIN THE AIR
catarrh CIogged Nostrils a Breeding
Place For Deadly
Germs.

The nostrls are perfect "air filters"
and, when kept in clean, healthy state,
strain every bit of air we breathe,
catching all dust particles, foreign
matter and germs. The air is full of
germs. You cannot dodge them, but
you can safeguard yourself against
catarrh and other diseases contracted
in the process of breathing by keep
ing the nostrils clean and healthy.
Catarrh germs will sometimes get in
their work, and you may mistake the
symptoms for an ordinary cold.
Don't take any chances. If you
have a stuffed up feeling in the head,
or if your throat is sore or filled with
phlegm, just grease the nostrils with
a little Ely's Cream Balm, draw the
pure, aromatic fumes back in the head,
and you will be astonished at the eff
feet In a few minutes you will feel
a loosening up in the head, the nasty
discharge will soon be stopped, the
soreness gone, and you will feel a
sense of genuine relief.
Ely's Cream Balm not only wards
off catarrh, but will quickly cure even
a chronic, long-standing case of ca
tarrh. 1t takes the trouble right
where it starts, in the nose and throat,
cleanses, heals and strengthens the
raw, sore inside skin, or membrane,
and in this way drives out catarrh
and makes you proof against this
filthy, disgusting disease.
Summer colds, which often hang on
for weeks, can be quickly cured with
balm. All druggists sell it for fifty
cents bottle, and the one bottle is
generally all that is needed to effect
complete cure. Try it today.-THE

National Convention can do Is to
call the convention to order and make
speech, Mr. Roosevelt either fears
the effect of Root speech on the
delegates to Chicago or his opposition
to Mr.. Root is part of his monumental
game of bluff.
Four years ago Mr. Roosevelt sue
ceeded in bulldozing the Republican
party by the threat that ''if they don't
take Taft they will get me-" Now he
is bulldozing it by the threat to bolt
and destroy it If the convention is not
surrendered into his hands.
There used to be Republican party
that managed its own conventions and
nominated its own candidates for
President. 1t regarded itself as great
err than any individual 1t recognized
no mans divine right" and submitted
to no mans dictatorship. The old Re-
publican party seems to have passed
away. After four years of Hanna
bossism and eight of Roosevelt boss
ism it has lost its moral courage and
its independence and its self-respect
1t is cowardly and craven. Even the
President of the United States offers
but feeble and apologize resistance
to the buccaneer tactics of his third
term antagonist.
If Mr.. Roosevelt carries New Jersey
and the National Committee abdicates
to Mr. Roosevelt on the question of
the Temporary Craftsmanship, more
than Mr.. Taft's denomination will
have been lost. The historic Repub-
lican party itself will have been lost.

London, June Professor Willis
L. Moore, chief of the United States
Weather Bureau, delivered the first of

of mapping daily air routes for pas

stations of the United States Weather
Bureau and those Of other weather
services will be equipped with avia-
tors and flying machines The kite on
windy days and the aeroplane on quiet
days will carry instruments aloft and
bring back the pressure, temperature
and direction and force of the wind;
which, when telegraphed to the Gen.
trail Office, will enable the forecaster
to construct a weather map on, say,
the two-mile level,-will enable him to
plot the horizontal distribution of
pressure and temperature gradients
up in the free air where the energy
OF the storm must be the most intense,
and, what is of the greatest import
ance to the pilots of air craft, to de-
termine the regions of unstable equili-
brium, where gradients quickly re-
verse and swirls are frequent; and
finally, by comparing the weather
chart of the high level with the one of
sea-level, to map out the vertical
gradients of pressure and tempera-
ture. Then the central meteorological
office may issue more danger warn
ings to air craft than to water craft.

that in the near future the weather
forecaster will daily lay out the routes
of the ships of the air. when, for in

of every weather station a fair way

that extreme caution is necessary as
the opposing forces are taking advan-
tage of every point that can in any
way effect the campaign of Wilson.
In connection with the above let
ter. it may be stated that Chairman
Price has not answered as yet or at
least his answer has not been receiv-
ed However. another letter from a
private source gives the information
that Chairman Price has stated that
he has withheld the names of Clark
and Harmon from the ballot. or at
least would withhold them. because
both Clark and Harmon has request
ed him to do So II is this cores
pondence that the Wilson men want

Gre'ter Combination.
The Wilson forces in Jacksonville
contend that the combination against
Wilson will prove greater than was
expected when it was admitted that
the Harmon supporters were behind
the Underwood boom. They have
been quietly at work and have col
lected correspondence and kilograms
which have been gathered from all
sources. and complete publication of
these letters and kilograms is plan
ned even should It become necessary
to give them out as advertising mat
ter. However. the news value of the
letters would hardly be questioned,
and only for the fact that the Will
son forces are preparing a nice lit
tie bomb to be dropped in the near
future they would have been given
to the public before this. But the
most interesting part of the whole
proceedings will be the explanation
of Chairman Price relative to the or
ders received from Clark and Har-
mon.
Should Chairman Price refuse to
make public the correspondence he
has received as Chairman of the Ex-
ecutive Committee. and which Is
classed as public matter, the Wilson
men having possession of all the
facts will see that the information
Is given regardless of the chairman.

THE PREACHER IN POLITICS.

AS rule preachers contine their
political activities to a discussion of
the moral" questions from their pull
pits. These questions embrace prOhi.
bition, child labor, the protection Of
h0me-life, and kindred subjects The
preacher usually appears in non
official role. He is a teacher and
nothing more. There are exceptions,
to be sure. Rev. DR.. Buchtel was
governor of Colorado for two years

Another preacher who is taking Il
prominent part in current political
life is Rev. Herbert ID. Bigelow, the

On two or three occasions he has left
