or early tomorrow, Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt, home from Spain, was ex-
pected by Progressive leaders here to
have a few words to say to several
qustions. They are:
viii you run for governor Of New
York State this fall?
viii you run for President in 1916?
Where do yon stand in the Pinchot
attempt to force George w. Perkins
out OF the Progressive party?
Friends Of the Colonel here today
refused to pin their faith to state
ments he is alleged by wireless to
have made on board. These quoted
him as saying he had never said to
living soul' whether he would be a
Presidential candidate in 1916. and as
declaring flatly that he would not run
for governor of New York.
George w. Perkins, it is said, will
see the Colonel before the Pinchot

scheduled to meet Roosevelt at Quar-

Crawford AGAIN
named PRINCIPAL
OF dover School
lContinued nom First Paee.

tRNHNlHutu from IliSL rage
by the election Of Prof. Crawford. has
ended a fight which began three years
ago. when Prof George S. Messersmith,
then principal of the Lewes, Del,
schools was elected in March as super
vising principal Of the Dover schools,
his term to begin September. 1912. Prof.
Crawford having been notified some
months before that he would not be re-
elected, and the selection OF Prof. Mes
sersmith at that time being made sole
ly for the reason that he was being
sought after by other schools, and Dover
bad chance to secure him. which they
did. The result Of the selection of Prof.
Messersmith at that time. is well
known here, a strike occurring among
the school children, which was carried
the following June into the school cleo
tion and a most bitter fight waged, the
issue being Crawford for Principal" of
the Dover schools. The ticket nominal.
cd at that election, included f. f. Ben
son, ID. G. Alice and Prof Wesley Webb,
all being pladged to vote for Crawford,
but as the supervising principal, as
well as the other teachers had been
elected before the annual election, no
change could be made.
In 1918, a like contest was waged
and the following ticket nominated
and elected by an Overwhelming ma
jority John S. Collins. G. d. Jackson,
and S. H. Carson With the election
of these three, the advocates of
Professor Crawford were ia the ma
3ority, hut as the teachers and prlnci-
pal mad been elected before the new
members took their seats, nothing
could be done.
Since 1913, school affairs in Dover
have moved along without a ripple.
and everyone thought the old issue
dead, and that as the schools were
prospering under the principal and
teachers, there would be no further
trouble, but as the election drew near
this year it was evident that the same
tight would be put with the same
issue, that of the Reinstatement of
Professor Crawford.

LOW PRICES OF FRUIT MAKE PRESERVING PROFITABLE
 EVEN WITH HIGH SUGAR
Department of Agriculture Gives Methods of Canning With No Sugar and With Thin syrups.

: Washington, Sept. s.+Marketing specialists Of the Deparfrne ent Of Az riculture who have been following the fruit situation call attention to- the fact that in almost all wholesale mar kets peaches for canning and preserv- ing are very bountiful and are being sold at prices advantageous for can ming, in spite Of the increased price of sugar. While the peach crop has been somewhat short in some sections, heavy crops from other States have been shipped in and have tended to keep prices at figure which encour- ages canning. Later, after the height Of the crop movement, prices for fruit have a tendency to rise. Retailers are urged to enable their customers to ob- tain fruit for canning at prices com mensurate with the present low whole sale price.
 A great many housewives are now being deterred from canning and pre- serving their usual supply because of the increase in the price of sugar. There is no indication, however, that
