Mother was suffering when I reach
ed her, as l had not dreamed of. At
ter consultation, Drs. Gazzam and
Fahnestock thought she could not live
more than four weeks; but Spear said
she might linger three months. This
blanched the cheek Of each one. Three
months of such unremitting pain,
steadily on the increase, was appall-
ing; but mother faced the prospect
without a murmur, willing to bear by
Gods grace what He should infict,
and to wait His good time for deliver
ance. l was filled with self-reproach,
for l should have been with her
months before.
In few days my mother-in-law and
one Of her daughters came to see how

motheriulaw, her on-in-law who

SOMETHING ABOUT THE
NEW WAR MINISTER

BY Pae. and lntl News Service.
CLEVELAND. Ohio, March ID
Those who attended the Baltimore
convention four years ago will never
forget that slim. studious figure which
with remarkable oratorical and dispu-
tative ability, led the fight for Wilson
in the Ohio delegation. He broke the
unit rule, and prevented the wasting
of the men from the northern part of
the state OH Judson Harmon. the fav-
orite son.
II is not too much TO say that Wood

had been the original Wilson man in
Ohio and many .ears before a student
under Wilson in John Hopkins Univer-
sity. in the very city where the con-
veption was held.
Added to personal affection. Mr..
Wilson thus four years ago incurred
n political debt. This debt he now re-
pays by offering Mr.. Baker post. if
not of great cast or financial emolu-
ment, certainly of immense RESPONSE
bility and opportunity TO display crea-
tive and administrative talent of the
highest order.
Mr.. Wilson's second war secretary,
like his first. is a lawyer of the
highest calibre. Unlike Mr.. Garrison,
however, Mr.. Baker is n politician of
well earned repute. He is studious by
inclination. but by occupation, rough
and tumble fighter for what he be.

Into Mr. Bakers hands will be put

From all reports the Pittman bill
providing for Il grant OF 100000 acres
OF land TO the state for school pur.
poses, is likely TO die in the house.
For political reasons opposition was
raised to the grant. and the cry was
made that there was danger of its
falling into the hands al few land
Grabbers. This, despite the fact that
safeguards had been embodied in the
bill. and the further fact that the state
itself could provide any further safe.

sary or advisable. Such Il contention
is TO admit of the belief that the PEG,
pie OF Nevada are incapable of sell
government and unworthy of state
hood, which is too absurd to permit
of argument.
The whole question resolves itself
into this: Would the 100000 acres
be worth accepting by the state? II
ii is worth accepting there can he no
doubt that the sales could be safe,
guarded as well by the state as by
the federal government
II looks as though Nevada is Ia

politics.
