Chairman McCom BIS.

And the villain. in the shape OF an
old yarn. still pursues him. Again
Chairman McCombs denies that he
will soon retire from the democratic
national committee:
AS to what will happen after the
nominations arc made next summer
cannot say. / do not know whether
I shall want to be chairman again or
not. | suppose. however, that IT l de-
eide that wish to continue shall
do So
Ordinarily, year is a long time in
politics. Measured by present cond1-
tions and the outlook, it is long,
long time. Next summer seems an
age away.
When Mr.. McCombs was chosen
for his Office he was popular with all
schools and shades OF democrats. He
had rendered Mr.. Wilson consider
able service i'll the east where he
lived. and in the south where be had
been born and brought up. His re-
lations with the Baltimore nominee
were very close and cordial. He en-
loved Mr.. Wilson's full confidence,
as both man and politician.
After the election something hap
pened which seemed to disturb the
relations between Mr. McCofnbs and
his chief. Everybody expected the
successful manager OF the campaign
to be handsomely recognized for his
services. and he was. Mr.. Wilson
offered him the mission to France
one OF the best places in the diplo-
matte service Mr. McCombs de-
clined Then the offer was renewed,
and this time pressed. but again Mr.
McCombs declined.
Then gossip began. and has been
busy ever since with the subject.
Mr.. McCombs is d capable man. and
did we'll in 1912. but it is but the truth
to say that Mr.. Roosevelt did far
more for Mr.. Wilson than the lattef's
campaign manager. In fact, the bull
mooser elected Mr.. Wilson. But for
the bull moose bolt Mr.. TAFT would
have secured second term by an
overwhelming majority.
The bull moose movement is rap
idly disappearing. and by next year
there may be but fragment Left A
judicious nomination by the repub-
licans may restore their party to its
fighting form. Then a condition dill
fering radically from that OF 1912 will
be presented. VIII Mr.. Wilson and
his present advisers-Mr. McCombs
is not today one OF them-decide to
recommission the present chairman?
The matter will be in their hands
Two things will be essential in the
man who manages next years demo-
cratic campaign. He must have the
good will OF the rank and file OF the
party, and he must be on good terms
with the business interests. The dis
tribution OF patronage has caused
some discomfort among the former.
and the legislation OF the last Con-
gress much soreness among the lat
ter.

while defeat would be discouraging
everywhere.
Cleverly as the conventions work
was performed. however, two men

liquor interests. cannot be acceptable
to him. Can he be brought into line
on what may be called general prin-
ciples? Will he be invited to the
state to stump? And. ii SO, will he

Mr.. Watterson is so strongly op-
posed to prohibition he takes the
ground that mo democrat can be a
prohibitionist' To him, therefore. the
conventions rejection OF prohibition
is entirely welcome. But the conven
ton gave the President a general bill
OF health. and so included his foreign
policies Mr.. Watterson. on the other
hand. has condemned the Presidents
course toward Mexico as lacking en-
ergy. and has advocated a more ag
gressive course in the matter OF the
European war. But he will support
the ticket heartily on the domestic
issues.
A very pretty contest between the
two old parties opens. with the bull
moosers and the old-style prohibi-
tionists making demonstrations of no
important character

Kentucky Renominates Mr.. Wilson.

The Kentucky democrats in state
convention yesterday Endorsed Mr.
Wilson for a second term. AS Sena-
tor James was chairman Of the COM
mittee on resolutions it is safe to as
sumo that the administration had had
the program. Mr.. James is in all the
good graces OF the White House.
Kentucky, then, has placed Mr.. Will
son in nomination with his consent.
This action was fair return for
services received. Those in control
of the convention-the anti-prohibi-
tionists-had carried the primaries on
the strength OF letter Mr.. Wilson
lad written on the subject They
claimed him for their own, and had
read his letter from every stump dur
ing the primary campaign; and they
will continue to read it until election
day in November.
In addition to display of graft
tude, the convention displayed
shrcwd politics. By putting the Pres
idcnt in the foreground, the blue
grass democrats took step toward
easing their difficulties on the drink
evil. Although the anti-prohibition-
lists had forty-odd thousand the best
OF the primary toll, the prohibitions
ISIS numbered sixty-odd thousand
and they must support the party tick
ct. or it will be swamped. The ap.
peal to them. therefore, will be in the
Presidents behalf. 1t will be pointed
out to them that success in Novem.

LIGHTHOUSE WORK IN ALASKA

At a recent dinner in Washington, D. G. Commissioner of Lighthouses G. R. Putnam made interesting address, including the following references:
 Lighthouse work in Alaska has been extended more rapidly in the last few than at any previous m yet additional aids to navigation should be provided the present o spplng and the probable increase shipping, and the opening of water routes will require that lights and buoys and beacons be established to reasonably safeguard guide water traffic on these coasts.
 What has been done in Alaska is briefly this: The first buoys in Alaska placed 1884, and the first light 1895 In 1910 there 160 aids to navigation including 37 lights At present there 329 aids including lights At present there 329 ads including III lights There are three times lights Alaska there onehaf years ago. Formerly the Alaska lighthouse work carried on by sending tenders and working force from the Oregon ngton district In 1910 Alaska a separate lighthouse district under inspector with headquarters depot Ketchikan and tender permanently assigned Att present the main steamship from Seattle to Skagwav lighted throughout the inside passage Southeastern Alaska The other main channels in this region lighted though less completely and there small lights at the principal entrances from the outside There number of lights Cook Inlet and Prince William Sound including powerful light at the entrance to the latter There two stcass light fog signal stations in Unmak Pass the principal passage into Boring Sea- and there few minor lights in the vicinity the Yukon River entrance These the only aids ton throughout the great of islands coasts west and north of Kodiak In addition these lights there are ten fog sgnas About $3000O per expended for the mante of the lighthouse work in Alaska and about 80 persons empoyed large proportion of the lights automatic gas and do not require resident keepers There but three class light stations the entire outer coast of Alaska being those at the entrances to Prince William Sound and Unimak Pass.
