islative policies. 1t is understood he
will welcome an opportunity person
ally to go before the country with
these policies at once. There is a
positive conviction at the White
House that the next two years will
demonstrate the virtue and effective
ness of the legislation already enact
ed under the direction of the presi-
dent.
The administration leaders do not
believe the much discussed one-term
presidential plank in the Baltimore
platform will have any effect so far
as the nomination is concerned and
will have little or no effect in the
general election. Secretary BRYAN.
who now stands stoutly for a second
term for Mr.. Wilson, was the author
of the plank.
1t is pretty we'll settled that the
presidential nominees in 1916 will be
selected at national conventions as in
the past. The chance for the enact
ment of presidential primary law in
time for use in 1916, if any existed,
has vanished.
While no official statement has
come from the White House, it is not
believed President Wilson in his mes
sage to congress this month will re-
new his recommendation for the en-
ctment Of a presidential primary law
Investigation of the question has cast
much doubt on it's practicability as
well as its advisability. A number of
reformers, within the Democratic
party as we'll as without, recently
have stated they are weakening on
their conversion to the direct nomina-
ton and direct election plan as ap-
piled to presidents. The pendulum
appears to swing back to the old
plan of party organization, and party
organization responsibility.

critics.

critics.
The presidents friends in the SEN
ate made reasonably clear the pres-
dents confidence in Mr.. Daniels. The
president himself left no doubt of the
fact in public statement and sup
plemented it with the declaration
that he fully Endorsed the views of
Mr.. Daniels. The nomination was
confirmed after a three weeks oppo-
sition and Mr.. Daniels has vindicated
the presidents confidence. He estab-
lished the courage of his convictions
by voting against the majority of the
commission which rejected the appli-
cation of the railways for a rate in
crease. The administration believes
that Mr.. Daniels would have been
confirmed sooner had the president
made known in person his reason for
desiring it.
If the president decides to recon-
mend seats in the house for the men,
bers of his cabinet there will probably
go out from that body a howl of an
guish accompanied by charges that a
Democratic form of government is
aspiring to royal institutions.
The proposed departure from an
cient traditions will undoubtedly
shock the sensibilities of it's self-ap-
pointed guardians, as did the presi-
dents decision to do his own talking
to congress. But it is more than prob
able that it will become quite as pop
ular as the first departure from the
archaic parliamentary forms that had
survived for a century.
Advantage of the Change.
The British Parliament not only pro-
vides seats for the ministers, but per-
mits them the fullest latitude in pre-
senting their reasons or those of the
government in support Of or opposi-
ton to legislation. The House of
Commons finds this method of inval-
liable service in reaching an under
standing of government projects. The
ministers hold themselves in readi-
ness to answer any questions men,
bers may desire to ask. Some Of the
most instructive and entertaining de-
bates that enliven parliament develop
from the practice of members in quiz
ling the heads of the various depart-
ments Of His Majesty's government.
The result is that the house obtains
full information on the subject under

Mr. Warburton TO become their can

by stating that he had returned to the

get back in company with those whose
party emblem is that of the elephant.

for oak floors in the main halls, living

a fireplace. The buildings are located
on a site Of about 100 acres, largely
prairie land, but with some fine tim
Der. The construction work on the
buildings was started last April.
There is private water system with
a pumping plant and wells and separ-
ate electric plant.
