Senator BOrdh
Presidential Possibility
HIS NAME TALKED IN WASHINGTON
P eSident Wilson Will Be RenOminated By Demo.
cratic Party

United States Senator William
f. BOrah is looked upon, is being
seriously considered and in fact
is claimed to be the most logical
presidential timber in the Repub-
Lean party for 1916. This in
brief represents the belief of Ex-
United States Senator Fred T.
Dubois of Blackfoot.
at is indeed true that Senator
Borah is looked upon in the east
as the most available timber for
he presidency within the Repub-
lican party" said former Senator
Dubois. Let me say right here,
however, that Senator Borah is
not a candidate, has never been
candidate and today considers
that all of the talk about him
as presidential timber is needless
and without the slightest founda-
ton. He is not letting the talk
that is going the rounds in Wash
ingtOn and eastern circles among
the leading men of the country in
terfere at all with his present
work. Nor is he inclined to al
low what is being said with ref
erence to him turn his head.
II am inclined to the belief.
however, from my own observa-
tiOns at Washington and in the
east that Senator Borah, if he
keeps up his favorable record, will
be, or every effort will be made to
bring him out, the Republican
candidate for president Of the
United States. And l am talk
ing seriously when l make this
statement. I will add that he is
looked upon by men of his own
party as the most logical candi-
date. They believe that if he is
nominated he will poll very big
vote including a large Progress
sive vote.
Il am a member of the press
club Of Washington and often
visit there while in the national
capital. I find that when the
matter of the Republican candi-
date is discussed, the name of
Senator Borah is always linked
most prominently with it. The
newspaper men there and the cor
respondents are all for Senator
Borah. They believe also that
he is the logical candidate. Many
of the leading magazines have al

That the German soldier has car

known habits of thrift is shown by
the amount of money that he is send
home to his family. A postoffice of
fetal Of Dresden has recently shown
in a public address that the amount
of money sent home by soldiers for
the Dresden postal district in Novem-
Der reached $550,000. Assuming that
the like ratio prevails for all the rest
of Germany he estimates that the SOL.
diers sent home "a million dollars in
November. This sum appears all the
more striking when it recalled that
the pay of the German private soldier
is only about IL cents a day. The
amounts sent through the postoffice
are often less than $3.50, and in not
few cases less than one dollar.
