Churchill
1t has been gossined through the
state that Mr. Churchill would~be the
running mate of Governor Johnson in
the progressive campaign of 1916. The
novelist would not discuss this phase
of his visi-.
Churchill has been active in his own
state in ridding the commonwealth of
political leaders of the reactionary
type.
In his bitter fight to free New Hamp-
shire from railroad control the author
of Richard Carver had an able assist
ant in his wife. who is noted for her
pronounced views in favor Of woman
suffrage She led the women of New
Hampshire in a valiant fight for use of
the ballot.
The domination and prostitution of
government by railroads and other COR
porations is unquestionably the great
est political evil we have TO face in the
United States today" was the declara-
ton of Churchill during his campaign
for the governorship of New Hamp-
shire. This sentiment is powerfully
expressed in the authors recent novel,
"Coniston,a which embodies skilfful
attack on railroad rule in an unnamed
New England state, closely resembling
New Hampshire.
At II o'clock this morning Churchill
is scheduled to address the students
of the University of California. To-
morrow night he will be the guest Of
honor at banquet rendered him by
the progressives in Scottish Rite tenn
ple Governor Johnson will preside.s
While the banquet is ostensibly in
the nature of welcome by the Califor-
MIA progressiyes to distinguished
visitor and party member, it is be-
lieved to have particular bearing on
the plans of the progressive party dur
ing the next presidential election.
