Whitman candidacy. aided by it. pre-
vailed by some hundred and fifty
thousand over the Glynn candidacy
Since then, however. the Whitman
boom has experienced some depres-
sion at home. 1t has not today the
field to itself As competitors it has
the Hughes boom and the Root boom.
although both Justice Hughes and
Mr.. Root have forbidden the use of
their names The one is entirely sat-
ished with the Office he holds, the
other entirely satisfied to be out of
Office. Still, the two booms persist,
and in a measure are interfering with
the Whitman boom.
To effect results at the republican
national convention. New York must
appear there not only solidly. but en-
Enthusiastically, in somebody's behalf.
If she goes. divided among three
sons, or only languidly behind one.
her influence as to the candidate will
be nil. She cannot hope to draw the
prize unless in spirit and condition
to promise the nominee her support
on election day.
New York is not alone in this sort
of embarrassment Ohio has tour
aspirants. and Illinois two. tor the
republican nomination. In the for
mer state Gov. Willis. former Sena-
tor Burton. Senator-elect Harding
and former Ambassador Herrlek are
under discussion. while in the latter
state Senator Sherman and Repre-
sentative Mann are mentioned. But
it is true of those states as of New
York. that they should pick their man
and indorse him in time for effect
elsewhere on delegate-hunting, which
has already begun.

New York.

Gov. Whitman is returning from
San Francisco, and will reach home
in few days. His friends declare
that his receptions everywhere on
his trip have indicated a lively in
terest in him as national figure
and one under discussion for the
presidency. For this reason some of
them are recommending that he say
something in a formal way publicly
about the presidential boom that
bears his name. As he is to speak
at Amherst College on the 3oth in
slant. that place and date are sue-
gested.
The Whitman boom was started
immediately after the boomee's nomi-
nation for. Governor of New York
and used in his Campaign. His
friends said in substance to the
voters; Get in behind this man now
and he will probably be the next
President of the United States. New
York is the most important state in
the Union in the presidential calou-
lation, and if Whitman carries it thi,
year by a substantial majority his
stock as presidential quantity will
soar. Give US your help. and you'll
help not only him but the state"
The appeal was successful. and the

Pawnbroking in the District.

According to the decision in the
Police Court. in the test case brought
there, it is not illegal for a pawn
broker to maintain his principal es-
tablishment in the District of Co.
lurnbia. and his place of actually
passing money to his patrons in Vir-
ginia. charging for the loans he
makes a rate of interest prohibited
by the local statutes. If this de-
cision is sustained by the higher
courts the law which prescribes a
maximum rate of interest on loans
stands in need of amendment unless
it is to be nulliied absolutely by sub
terfuges. In all essentials except for
the fact that the actual transfer of
money and the technical transfer of
goods given as security take place in
Virginia, the pawnbroking business
as cited in court is conducted pre-
cisely as before the present law went
into effect That business cannot be
conducted wholly in the District of
Columbia, but according to the Po-
lice Court ruling yesterday it can be
conducted partly here and partly in
Virginia, the patronage of the pawn
broker coming exclusively from this
jurisdiction.
1t is we'll understood that the loan
shark law, under which the prose-
cution against the pawnbroker was
brought, stands in need of amend
ment, and that an effort will be
made at the next session Of Congress
to change it to grant larger per-
eentage of interest on unsecured
loans so as to permit this class of
business without loss to the lenders
Should the present test of the law
as it affects pawnbrokers fail and
that class of business be declared on
appeal to the higher courts to be
conducted within the law, it will be
necessary in the course of the con-
sideration given to the proposal for
amendment on the interest rate
question to determine whether or not
it is desirable to include the pawn
brokers within its operations. If they
are to be included, then assuredly
the statute should be so changed as
to prevent the present condition,
which makes a travesty of the law.
If pawnbroking is to be permitted in
the District of Columbia the law
should be so framed as to allow it
under regulations, without the con-
tempt-breeding device of splitting the
transaction between two jurisdic-
tions.

The Poor-Rich Patent Office.

An absurdity of the appropriation
system is brought to light in the
present plight of the patent Office.
which, with a credit in the Treasury
of over 100000, is forced to sus-
pend the publication of the official
Gazette during the remainder of the
fiscal year on account of the lack
of $1,000. The patent Office is about
the only money-making branch of
the government. and has turned into
the Treasury millions Of dollars in
fees over and above its cost of op-
Grafton. Nevertheless, in consequence
of the existing method of providing
for its expenditures it cannot draw
upon its credits, and its operations
are curtailed and thus its value to the
public is impaired. This situation
should lead to a correction whereby
the patent Office can draw upon its
own funds in fulhllment of its stated
obligations.

which is about twelve months dis
tant.
1t may be that a dark horse will
issue from the convention hall. Even
so. this thorough canvass of white
horses should aid in that selection.
In the particular that the strongest

deficient for vote-getting purposes. a
dark horse must meet the require
ments.
Even conceding. as some demo-
Gratis do. that the republican pros
poets are rosy. it is yet true that the

be an exceptionally we'll qualified
man for public business if the eppor-
tunity is to be properly improved.
II the republicans regain the presi-
dencv and control of the House-the

regaining the Senate next year-they
will have a task in hand more diff
cult than they have confronted in

Republican Activity.

Home friends of Mr.. Mann are re-
ported active with his presidential
boom. Their appeal is based on his
record in the House. which is excel
lent, whether examined in the light
Of early or later service there. While
the republicans were in control he
distinguished himself by the closest
attention to business. When the
democrats took charge he was ad-
vanced to the post of minority lead
er, and by tirelcss industry and the
most intelligent aggressiveness at
once made good. His opponents have
been as generous as his supporters
in praise. Speaker Clark's tribute to
his resources as a parliamentarian
and debater was characterised lily
warm.
But. excellent a. the record now
is, Mr.. Mann has a chance to add
materially to it. He will again lead
the House minority, and a much
larger minority than heretofore. In
the Sixty-fourth Congress he will
stand at the head of large and
what should be a compact force of
fighting men. with something in
every sense worth fighting for. 1t
will be surprising if he fails to eapi-
talize his opportunity handsomely.

Dental aspirants are doing. All the

The League of Peace.

This is taken from a press report
of the meeting of the American
branch OF the League of Peace held
in Independence Hall. Philadelphia.
yesterday:
The conference was held in what
was known in colonial days as ban
auet hall on the second floor OF the
historic statehouse. Before begin
ming their deliberations the members
of the conference viewed the Liberty
bell in its glass case. gazed upon the
portraits of George Washington. the
signers of the Declaration OF lnde-
pendence. the kings of England who
reigned over the colonies and many
patriots of colonial days.
An excellent beginning. And what
did the Liberty bell say to the mem
bers? prepare against war. and
stay prepared. If the men who
made me famous had been better pre-
pared for their heroic task 1t would
have been sooner performed. and at
far less cost of blood and treasure.
They did admirably with small re-
sources, but their resources were so
small at the start their great enter
prise but narrowly missed defeat.
And what did the portrait of
George Washington say? AS all
Americans know, he was first
in war. first in peace, first in the
hearts of his countrymen." The SOL
dier antedated the statesman. Gen.
Washington preceded President
Washington. His counterfeit pre-
sentiment echoed the advice of the
Liberty bell: Get ready, and stay
ready. To hold what has been estab-
lished in the American name is
duty to humanity Excuse the van
ity of personal reference, but read,
mark, learn and inwardly digest
again my Farewell Address, put into
form by my friend Alexander Ham,
ilton. Let me give you a sentiment:
The Army and Navy forever!'"
And what part did the portraits of
the kings OF England play? They
suggested the greatest Englishman
of action that ever lived and one OF
his most notable admonitions to
those who were fighting for good
government Said Oliver Cromwell
to his soldiers: Trust in the Lord,
but keep your powder dry And he
might have added, for, of course, he
meant, and keep your pouches
full"
While President, Benjamin Harri-
son found on his card one day two
engagements. One was to attend a
peace meeting to be held in a
church, the other to visit the navy
yard in South Washington to inspect
the work in progress on big gun.
He kept both engagements, visiting
the peace meeting first because
the church was situated be-
tween the White House and the navy
yard. That was thoroughly Crom-
wellian, and an act appropriately
performed by a man who had served
as soldier through our civil war.
Everybody wants peace, and should
assist in promoting it. But peace
by means and on basis that
will insure its continuance for at
least a little while Helplessness
never promotes peace.
