: Interview in Springfield Republican

JUSTICE HUGHES. OF the supreme court, will be
nominated by the next republican convention, un-
less he issues prohibition stronger than any
thing he yet said and definitely serves notice on
the party that he will reject the nomination even II
the convention formally selects him" This prediction
made In this city by Senator William r. Borah
OF Idaho, who In the afternoon had spoken in favor
OF woman suffrage in the meeting in the Auditorium
The earnestness with which Senator Borah made his
prediction based, he explained upon the strik-
ing equalization OF public sentiment in favor OF
Hughes throughout the west Last spring in Wash
ington. Senator Borah made similar declaration to
a representative Of The Republican, but last evening
he appeared stin convinced OF the matter.
Senator Borah has himself been widely and favor
bly, suggested the republican candidate next year
and II is record that Colonel George Harvey OF
the North American Review who long ago picked
woodrow Wilson for the presidency when most people
didn't who Woodrow Wilson was has similarly
staked his reputation prophet by naming Borah
the republican nominee in 1915 But Senator Borah
reasserted last evening that he was not candidate
and that he did not EXPECT to be candidate or to
be considered
In regard to the candidacy Of Senator John W.
Weeks, the senator from Idaho. while not abating
his statement in regard to Hughes. reported that
Weeks had made notably favorable Impressions IN

harbor appropriations had impressed the people Of
the west being the work of a strong man. Senator
Borah added however, that there as yet
tensive organization in favor OF any candidate
but that the spontaneous capitalization OF popular
opinion in favor Justice Hughes the outstand-
ing factor in the situation.
Asked for his opinion the question OF military
prepa rednes Senator Borah declared himself I'm favor
OF a strong navy the countrys first line of de-
Tense. He would leave the question OF the exact size
OF the fleet to the technical experts. He was dis
tincty less favorable, however to proposition for
a large standing army believing that training sys

Had After-MidniEht Car Service.
OMAHA, Oct. 1.-To the Editor OF
The Bee: ] think / saw an article in
your paper recently indicating that ar
rangements had been made with the
street railway company so that cars
would always meet or wait for the trains
coming into the Union or Burlington sta
lions at about q. m, but l find by ex-
perience that this is all a dream as far
as the cars are concerned.
For instance, 1 arrived on the 12:55
Union Pacific train Thursday night, and
got UP to the street about 1858, along
with some thirty or forty other passen-
gers, and the only street cars which went
north after that time were one for Har-
ney street at about 1905 and one for For
tieth and Cunning street at 1870. This lat
ter car waited at the Burlington station
until presumably their last train was in.
The conductor on this car informed
me that 1t was the last car out for the
night, and that the last car which went
to Dundee left at 1855, and that some
times they ran IAN extra" when trains
were reported late. AS 1 was going to
Dundee and my train was on time
missed this car of course and so had
to walk from Fortieth. while the6-S ic-
ally there might have been an extra car
to take me home II the train had only
been late.
Now. It is very evident from this that
unless the people all happen to live along
Farnam street this car service is practic-
ally useless, and It leaves Omaha still
in the village class insofar as street rail-
way facilities are concerned. A.

OMAHA. oct. s-The Editor OF The
Bee: A beautiful and uplifting bit Of
music and song has been universally ac-
eepted by the people of Omana-accepted
in a spirit which. In the main. is as
beautiful as the music and song itself
l do not believe that 1t is possible to
lower the standard of either the spirit
or the song by any Decorating use OF the
music but just the same It is revolving
TO those OF us who have felt the influ-
ence and the uplift of Brighten the
Corner to find 1t used for dance hall
purposes.
1t Is pitiful that there are people in
Omaha with so little appreciation Of the
best and truest sentiments OF the human
mind as To allow of such use Of this
beautiful hymn.
They advertise their crudeness by such
performance and become objects OF pity
10 right-thinking people.
Only small and benighted minds would
ever turn to questionable use the terms
OF religious sentiment and the methods
OF it's expression. Only disgust md pity
can be felt for them. A. s. NJ.
