THE OUTLOOK FOR CLARK.
@ PEAKER CLARK now has 302 delegates sure.
been a candidate in the Ohio Democratic pri

q PEAKER CLARK now has 32 delegates sure. If he had
- been a candidate in the Ohio Democratic primaries he
would most assuredly have carried the State and added
mt least a majority of its delegate vote to his list. If the
Speaker had initiated the example of Governor Wilson in making
contests in the States of other candidates and had opposed Har-
mon and Wilson he would surely have obtained a plurality in
nearly every Congress district. But to Clark will also come
nearly all the delegate vote scattered among other candidates.
The Underwood vote will naturally come to him, as also the
thirty votes of Governor Marshall, of Indiana, and Connecticut,s
fohgteen votes for Governor Baldwin, while IL the Harmon candi-
dacy should be dropped Clark will succeed to his vote. 1t may
be claimed that, emitting Ohio, of the delegates chosen Clark
may reasonably count on 438. To be added also are the ninety
delegates from New York and a majority of the unclassifed
delegates. AS the Baltimore convention will have 1,094 delegates
and the othirds vote prevails, 729 votes will be necessary for
n nomination. Less than three hundred delegates are yet to
be elected, and of these Clark is sure of at least two thirds, with
| a second mortgage on many of the balance.

CRIPPLED CHILDREN FL BENEEYcARIEs.-

TT 7 is an i'll wind that blows nobody good. Among the victims
of the Titanic wreck were George D. Widener and Harry
e. Widener, son and grandson of P. A. B. .widener, the
mulimilionaire of Philadelphia. Grief at the bereavement has
caused the aged father and grandfather to give four millions to
endow a memorial school for crippled children. A home for this
class of children was endowed by Mr. Widener some time ago
and it's scope is now greatly enlarged. So it happens that many
lrrippled children who sadly need the benefcence of the wealth
will be humanelv cared for even after they grow to manhood and
w~omanhood because of the Titanic tragedy.

Bitterness Of Campaign.

Bitterness of Campaign.
To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
Before the weekend, Newark is to
be honored with the presence of the
three leading presidential candidates. Two
of them are assailing each other with
a vindictiveness and verbal severity that
is not altruistic nor characteristic of the
dignity that their stations demand.
While all three are affiliated by party
lines, they are at wide variance along
all others.
Why wouldn't 1t be a grand .idea to
get these three ambitious candidates
together in one large hall and let the
people decide their preference like they
do on amateur night The one that gets
the most applause wins. If one of them
gets the hook It might not be any moro
humiliating than a defeat at the pri-
maries. and it would be over lots
quicker. W. W.

THE CHURCH LEARNING FROM POLITICS..

eTTa Wo features of the proceedings yesterday in the convention
of the Episcopal diocese of Newark show that the church
finds in political tendencies of the day things from which
she can take useful counsel. One was the rebuke spoken by
Bishop Lines TO those who would condemn Socialism unheard.
<"No such movement" said the bishop in his annual address, "can
have gained it's strength and hold upon many people without ex-
pressing some need and some truth which rightminded men are
bound to recognize" The other feature was the adoption of
nomination by petition in advance and election in convention by
the Australian ballot of diocesan officers and committeeman.

THE SENATORIAL OLD GUARD DIES.

@ ENATOR Winthrop Murray Crane, of Massachusetts, has
announced his retirement from public life at the close
of his present term, in view of the probable adoption in
Massachusetts of the primary system of nominating senatorial

it is destined to witness greater changes in its personnel. The

CINCINNATI TRUE TO TAFT.

No1 INCINNATI, his home city, gave Taft a good majority, as
" was expected. The Cincinnati Times-Star is owned by
Tafts brother and the press of the city almost entirely
favored Taft. But the Eighteenth ward of Cincinnati, with its
large negro vote, went 500 majority for Roosevelt. Trotting one
of the Brownsville negro battalions through Ohio didn't have the
desired effect. 1t is not probable now the experiment will be
tried in New Jersey.

WV Roosevelt's table at the White House Roosevelt did
not foresee the presidential nomination campaign this
year. But by that act he won the favor of the negro Republican
vote and it did him good service in Ohio yesterday, as it had
done in Maryland and North Carolina. Presumably the negro
vote in New Jersey will largely go the same way next Tuesday.

FOLEY RETURNS
ID CAPITAL CITY
LEARNED FIRST NEWS or JUDGE
MoRGAN's DEATH WHEN He
REACHED ST. PAUL.

Bismarck, N. D., May 15.-James w,
Foley, North Dakota's own poet, has
arrived at the state capital after
spending the winter in Los Angeles,
Cal. Mrs. Foley stopped off at st.
Paul to visit with friends and will
arrive within the ensuing few days.
Mr.. and Mrs. Foley left Los An
geles, April 80. En- route east they
stopped off at Fort Crook, Neb., where
they were the guests of Major
and Mrs. Dale for a week. They ar
rived at st. Paul. Monday, where they
learned the first word of the death of
Judge d. =. Morgan.
Mr.. Foley said: "They moved Judge
Morgan to Banning about three weeks
before we left Los Angeles. Banning
is on the edge of the desert and I
think is south and east of Los An
geles. They thought Pasadena was
too low to be beneficial to his health.
I visited with Judge Morgan two or
three days before he was moved to
Banning, At that time I was afraid
the end was not far off, as he looked
very poorly indeed. But he bore up
with a courageous heart"
During the course Of the winters
visit Mr.. Foley met a large number
of former North Dakotans, some who
have located in California and others
who were travelling through. He en-
joyed every minute of his trip.
