TREND OF COMMENT
 IS NOW WILS0NWARD

Woodrow Wilson, albeit his admins tration is travelling a rough road, is not to be underestimated politically. He is stronger than his party.
 If half the newspapers of the land are today criticising his policies the other half are just as earnestly and progressively championing him. In the independent press of the East, 1t is significant to note, more Is to be found in praise of him than of criticism and censure. So, too, of the magazines that so in for discussion of politics and current affairs. The trend of their comment is Wilsonward.
 All this is the more apparent since Theodore Roosevelt returned from the wilds. His arraignment of the admin istration has not gone unchallenged and he has become the target of edi. torial fire. Indeed, one might readily ge led tc believe, in following news paper discussion, that already he was in the running for President.
 The Colombian treaty, which he re. sents and so scathingly denounces, does not lack defenders.
 James T. Dubois, of long State De. partment experience and former con. sul at Bogata-a Roosevelt appointee recently gave publicity to his views in a strong and dignifed statement, meeting attecks upon the treaty and championing the cause of Colombia on the ground Of equity and and right. His presentation of the case seemingly has made a profound impression in the East and greatly tempered the criti- cism of the proposed indemnity. And word comes from Washington that the President confidently expects ratif- cation of the treaty in due season. He will press it upon the Senate in the same determined manner that he forced the canal tolls repeal act through Congress.
 Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt are figuring in the press to the exclusion of all other statesmen. They occupy the center of the stage and monopolize the National limelight. It is exactly the sort of situation that Theodore Roosevelt craves, and were Woodrow Wilson the same clever pol. itician he could ask 'othing better in the way of preliminary settings.
 Not a single star of disputing as- cendancy appears on the entire politi- cal Armament on either side, and the next National convention is only two years off.-Seattle Post-Intelligencer,

WlLSON TO WAIT
 FOR SENATE ACTION

WASHINGTON, July 25.-President Woodrow Wilson has determined that he will not name successor to Thos. D. Jones, whose nomination for mem. bership on the Federal bank reserve board was withdrawn, until the Sen. ate acts upon the nomination of Paul NJ. Warburg, of New York.
 It is believed that the criticism of the Senate by the Eastern press for it's action in practically compelling the withdrawal of Jones' name will have the effect of causing 1t to confirm the nomination of Warburg in spite of the opposition of Senator James A. O.. German, of New York.
