Philadelphia, June 23.-Signs of an
open breach between the factions OF
the State Democracy were seen from
the housetops this morning and the
Palmer Mccormick machine leader
ship is facing condition as far re-
moved from its hopes as could be pos
sible. The Big Four" which domi-
mates the Democratic party in the
Keystone State by dint of federal pat
ronage and cash is in conference seek

who has helped them so much, and
the nation from witnessing the Demo

the situation presents test of leader

Those close to the inner council real

want to force an open fight with the
Philadelphia Democratic city commit
tee they let slip golden opportunities
last night when the city committee
met. They had it in their power to
take away the perfunctory character
of the city committee endorsement of
the State ticket by appearing at the
meeting, in which event. say observers
here, the committee would have had
to invite them to make a speech and
the repudiation of the personally die
tated platform would not have occur

Sweating? All! Well
It's Good For the Corn

Although Harrisburg is now enjoy
ing only normal summer weather, the
heat is more appreciable because of
the recent period of cool weather But
the humidity makes the day far from
comfortable. 1t had reached 80 this
morning, which Is considerably above
the normal of So. So far as the actual
number of degrees of heat go, to-day
was far from "a scorcher," the mer-
curry registering II at s o'clock this
morning. Yesterday morning at the
thermometer stood at GA.
The sort of weather that now pre-
walls is likely to continue during the
entire week, according to information
that Forecaster Demain possesses.
While the city may suffer there is no
complaint from the country, for this
is typical corn weather, and the corn
grows overnight under the warm and
moist air.

NON. RILEY ]. WILSON TIVE NOMINEE.

In the primary election held last
Tuesday to nominate a congressman
from this, the Fifth Congressional
District, the Honorable Riley J.
Wilson, of CatahOula, defeated the
Honorable Walter Elder, of Ouachi-
ia, by about 500 majority. While
this paper supported the candidacy
OF Mr.. Elder, and deeply regrets his
defeat, we extend to the victorious
candidate our sincere congratula-
tions, and wish for him a most sue
cessful career as a member of Con-
gress from this District. The cam
paign between Mr.. Wilson and Mr..
Elder was one of the cleanest ever
seen, not one word having been said
by either candidate which would re-
fleet upon the other, but was waged
simply on National questions and
National issues.
Mr.. Wilson has long been figure
in our State politics and has held
with honor and credit to himself
several important positions, such as
member of the Constitutional Con-
vention of 1898, District Attorney
and is now Judge of the District in
which he lives, and we have no
doubt but that he will reflect credit
upon the people who have honored
him.

good. the choir being composed
Of the best voices in the church and as
sisted by outside talent. The singing WAS

seph in the fall of 1910 and made warm
friends OF our entire people, who were

welcome during this visit. Miss Lila
