The happiest boy in the party is Joe

bile mishap and slightly bruised was
ready to accompany he governor on his
trip.
although the accident was no joke, p
remarked the governor, today, there
were some amusing things about il. y
When the physician examined Captain
Bill Mcdonald. he said, TO see if he was
injured internally, he was astounded at
the number of holes in McDonald's body.
Captain Bill has been wounded so many
times in his thrilling days of service with
the Texas rangers that Judge William
Hughes, the Democratic candidate for
United States senator from New Jersey,
believes the captain dare not 90 in swim
ming because he is SO full of lead he'll

Captain Mcdonald, or silent Bill as
he is best known, is a great faVorte with
Governor Wilson. Edward NJ. House of
Houston, Texas, warm friend of the
candidate, obtained the services of the
captain, who in his day has guarded Col
onel Roosevelt, too. lie was on the wolf
hunt in Oklahoma with the colonel and
at the latter's instance worked on the
Brownsvilles case. srhe governor wanted
to know, early today. how the captain
was, for he is nearly 60 years old and
the shaking he got in the auto accident
caused one of the bullet wounds in his
right lung to trouble him.
II never killed a man but what was
shooting at me-" is the captains indeti-
mite way of answering the question as
to how many men he has killed. He has
been guarding Governor Wilson ever
since Colonel Roosevelt was shot in Mil

of the captain is that he's dead shot
with either hand"
The captain is a man of means and has
a ranch of his own with 500 acres under
cultivation at Kewaba, near Fort Worth.

nroof of how close and intimate the
alliance is between the machines IL
thav can only beat the ProgressiVes.
Ar Gruber's attitude merely Illus
trates what had already been shown
nv the conduct of Messrs. Penrose.
Barnes. and Crane, and the other Re
nublican bosses in New Jersey, Illi-
nois and Indiana, precisely as in Kan
sas, California and Oregon, that they
had not the slightest expectation OF
winning this election and that their
one purpose is directly or indirectly 10
aid the Democrats in order that the
Progressives may be beaten.
.Fhe fnanciers and bosses OF TINS
type are really non-partisan in their
feeling. The men mentioned are NOM
inaIly Republican in their feelings, but
they know they can always make
terms with the corresponding bosses,
in the Democratic party IL they can
not keep their own party under their
own control and at the same time IN
control of the nation, then the next
best thing from their standpoint is to
NIT the Democratic bosses in control
of the nation. q
~ ,ien me Abe Grubers without re-
gard to party are both ready and eager
TO support either of the old parties In
order to beat the Progressive move
ment. then it is surely time for all
honest and decent citizens, without re-
gard to their past political affiliations,
to support the Progressive party
This is in no ordinary sense OF the
word mere partisan movement, 1t is
movement for honesty and decency
and for fair play in the world or IN
dustry no less than in the world OF
politics and we have the right to APP
peal to all good citizens to support 1t.
