MRS. HORTON, RIVAL
Of MRS. VIC. STORY
IN OAR. RACE, HERE
Politics In Patriotic Organ
ization Already Beginning
to Warm Up.

Washington members of the Daugh-
ters Of the American Revolution have
noted with interest the presence In the
city Of Mrs. John Miller Horton, of Buff
falo, an announced candidate for the
presidency-general. The election does
not take place until a year from the
coming April, but politics in the d. A.
r. already is beginning to warm up.
Mrs. Matthew Scott, the present in
cumbent of the office, is not eligible for
reelection, because she is serving her
second term, and a constitutional pro-
vision fo-bids longer tenure of office.
Mrs. William Cumming Story, of New
York city, Is an announced candidate,
and so are Mrs. Charles Bryan, Of Ten
nessee. and Mrs. Alexander Patten, of
Pennsylvania.
Mrs. Stcry is generally believed to be
the strongest single candidate of all
those avowedly in the race, and her
Washington supporters are many. In
her last contest with Mrs. Scott, Mrs.
Story was only beaten by few votes,
The Washington times., 1912-02-10

and since then her cause is declared TO
have gained strength by the publica-
ton locally OF court papers and afti-
davits which refuted stories about the
circumstances OF her remarriage stories,
which her friends asserted openly were
set on foot by her enemies in the ID. A.
II. to defeat her for the presidency.
Mrs, Horton. who announced her can
djdacy for 1913 as soon as Mrs. Scott had
been reelected, has claimed a pledge Of
support from Mrs. Scott, but this claim
Is denied by Mrs. Scott and considerable
feeling has been manifest over the cir
cumstance. The issue has probably pre-
vented Mrs. Horizons becoming the ad-
minis .ration candidate.
Mrs. Scott says she has pledged her
support to no one, and friends of the
Tennessee and Pennsylvania candidates
are hopeful of getting the Endorsement
for their favcrites.
It Is said that Mrs. Story's candidacy
Is greatly helred by the fact that the
administration is not out for any women
tn succeed Mrs. Scott, even though the
election is a year and two months away.

HIGH LIVING COST
MERE PIGMENT Of
FANCY, HE AYERS
G. K. Holmes, of Agricul-
tural Bureau, Says Prices
Only Seem Abnormal.

NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-All this cry
about the high cost of living and the
cost of high living is without founda-
ton; IL only seems that II costs a lot
more to live today than 1t did ten years
ago.
George X Holiness of the Department
of Agriculture, bebfore the Republican
Club of New York, at noon today, told
his audience that only those persons
afflicted with a vivid imagination still
cling to the belief that in reality II costs
a lot of money to exist today.
Are prices high?" Mr.. Holmes asked
"7n reality, no; comparatively, yes" he
said, as he answered his own question.
This is the way he explained what he
meant: "An examination of the record
of prices extending back many years
makes it evident that we are not now
in q period of extraordinarily high
prices, everything considered; but rather
that we have emerged from a recent
period Of most extraordinarily low
prices, so that, by contrast, our present
prices seem unprecedented. They are
not so, in fact
Got Used to 1t.
I'VE had become so accustomed to
abnormally low prices from the years
late in the sos to the end of the '90s
were higher, and did not perceive that
the higher prices must return In some
large degree"
Stop complaining about the high
cost of living, Mr.. Holmes suggested.
Pay cash for everything; buy through
cooperative organizations, and don't
charge with your necessary ex-
penses," such items as summer vaca-
tionS, trolley car Joy riding, and mo-
ton picture shows.
productive consumption" he con
tinTed:
posed of expenditures for summer
boat, riding on suburban and inter
urban trolley lines for pleasure, the
frequenting of nickel and dime pic
ture shows, the cost of the family
specifications. Items of this sort of
consumption are charges against in
come; they are costs of pleasure, and
many of them should be rejected"
Chances in East.
Failure to utilize productiveness of
land near the population centers, fol-
lowing the foolish CUSTOM" of i'm
agining that the ideal place for farm
ing Is in the West, was one of the
reasons advanced by Prof. Milton
Whitney, of the soils bureau of the
Agriculture Department, for the in
creased cost of living
why is 1t we can't make people
satisfied to settle in the States north
of the Patomac river and east of the
OHIO and take up idle lands? There
they would have vast markets, cheap
est transportation, and best roads.
THE chief obstruction is fashion.
Horace Greeley set the fashion for
going West. Now We need a second
Greeley to point out that the great
opportunities are in the East"
Whitney admitted that there was no
satisfactory solution OF the high cost
gestions might alleviate conditions
somewhat.
