The establishment of these expert

THE CoLoNEL'S CANDIDACY DOES
NOT PROSPER.

The Indifference with which republic
cans regard the perennial candidacy of
Colonel Roosevelt for the presidency
must be most dlsheartening after his
entrance into the race for the republi-
can nomination had been so carefully
planned. The presidential primaries
which the colonel has insisted shall
be the first and last resort of the peo-
pile in choosing candidates have not
resulted in placing a single state in
line for the colonel The most notable
and significant primary election was
that held in Montana in which a deter
mined fight was made to elect a Roos-
evelt delegation. The fight for the
colonel was led by ex-senator Joseph
M. Dixon, who managed the bull moose
campaign four years ago, and who
was himself a candidate for delegate
to the republican convention, and who
stated In his formal announcement
that he favored the nomination of
Roosevelt by the republican national
convention. In spite of the deter
mined fight made by Dixon and other
former progressives, Senator Cummins
carried the state by large majority,
In Nebraska the colonel was beaten
by Henry Ford, and in Massachusetts,
where group of republicans and pro-
gressives, all men of political promin-
ence and influence, sought election as
delegates as avowed Roosevelt men,
the result of the primary showed re-
publican sentiment decidedly against
the third cup of coffee for the colonel.
Here we have the republicans of the
far west (Montana), the middle west
(Nebraska), and the far east (Massa-
on record against the NOM
nation of Colonel Roosevelt. The on
ly republican newspaper of national
prominence that is urging the nomina-
ton of Roosevelt is the New York
Tribune, and that paper probably is
repenting its folly since it has had
time to hear from the republicans
throughout the country upon its re-
cent Roosevelt announcement. Every
day there is evidence that republicans
realize that the nomination of Roose-
Welt would be bunder which would |
bring defeat to the republican party.

IDAHo'S POLITICAL WISDOM.
(salt Lake Herald Republican,

(Salt Lake Herald Republican,
Idaho's selection of delegates to the
republican national convention guar
antees that commonwealth an infiu-
ence in the great gathering far be-
yond the actual voting strength of
the delegation. 1t is headed by men
known to the country, to the leaders
of the party, and to those upon whom
the convention itself win depend, for
leadership.
Senator Borah is a national figure
as to lesser degree, is his colleague
Senator Brady. Both will be heard
with respect, their counsel given close
attention, their advice needed. What
ever the convention may do as to can
didate and reform, Idaho will parti-
cipate in formulating the final judg-
ment because of the character of its
representatives. No delegation, even
from the most populous eastern states
with their numerous votes, will gain
greater prominence for it cannot send
delegates better known to the nation
than the two Idaho senators.
Idaho is to be congratulated upon
avoiding the folly of sending unknown
men to Chicago. Its comparative I'M
Importance in the sisterhood of states
renders 1t necessary that it shall be
represented by the best known, The
great states, New York, Pennsylvania
Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, can afford to
send delegates whom the convention
leaders do not know because their vot-
ing strength gives them influence.
But the smaller commemorative must
be represented by men known in the
of the party whose personal
Ity and reputation can obtain for their
the recognition they can
not otherwise get.

Company Levies Assessment and ls-
sues Brief Circular Explaining II.
Last week the directors of the Ma
tional Copper Mining company levied
an assessment of cents per share
Accompanying the notice of assess
ment was the following brief state
ment signed by the directors:
when we levied our last assess
ment, we expected to be able to COM
mence operating the mill on the basis
of two shifts daily, on April l. The
difficulty of securing prompt delivery
OF material made this impossible We
expect now that all of the material
will be delivered and the second shift
started not later than May 10. In the
meantime we have continued to oper-
ate one shift daily at loss.
"All of the last assessment has been
collected and we have been unable to
retire any of our indebtedness as we
expected. The present assessment is
levied for the purpose of paying for
equipment and supply bills and for the
retirement of at least part of the in
debtedness."

HUGHES SEEMS TO BE THE MAN.

If the republican sentiment of the
country is fairly reflected by the par
ty press, then all indications point to
the nomination of Justice Hughes for
president We believe that a large
majority of the republican party pre-
fers Ellhu Root, but many fear that
his nomination might operate against
complete reunion of the party and
therefore make possible the reelection
of Wilson. Rather than risk bringing
about such disaster to the ountry,
the tendency is unquestionab!y to-
ward the nomination of Hughes up
ON whom all elements of the republic
can party will unite and thus make
his election sure. The opposition %
the nomination of Justice Hughes has
never been based upon personal
grounds, for he is universally recog-
nized as man in every respect ad
mirably equipped for the presidency.
The opposition has been based solely
upon the feeling that prevails among
thoughtful republicans that the SUI
preme court should be kept free from
party strife, and a fear that once the
precedent is established, even though
the honor is unsought, the time may
come when other justices might seek
the presidency and thus destroy the
splendid prestige the supreme bench
has always maintained on account of
its freedom from the rancor of par
tisan politics. But even those who
have entertained this view with refer
ence to the nomination of Justice
Hughes now seem disposed to recog-
nize that a greCter misfortune could
befall the country than the possibili-
ty of partisan supreme court In Or
der to avert the greater disaster it is
necessary to have a united republican
party back of the nominee, and JUS
tice Hughes seems to be the one man
whose nomination can bring about this
union. The drift of republican sentl-
ment is, therefore, strongly toward
Justice Hughes. That he will accept
the nomination if rendered him does
not admit of a doubt. His sense of
forbids him to announce that
he will accept, for he would thereby
become an active candidate; but there
is nothing to prevent him from stat
ing that he will not accept the NOM
ination II that is his state of mind
His silence leaves no other conclu-
sion than that he will accept the nom
ination If called by the convention.

THE COLONEL LOSING OUT.
Boise Statesman.

Colonel Roosevelt's plan has been to
impress the national republican con-
vention with its strength to such an
extent that he would be regarded as
the most desirable candidate. His de-
feat in the primaries of Nebraska,
Michigan and Montana detracts from
the high value he has sought to I'M
press on republican managers
II the colonel is to be nominated at
Chicago he must show that he Is un-
questionably an asset. That Henry
Ford polled more Votes in Michigan
and Nebraska denotes that the colonel
is not nearly so strong in the middle
west as he had forecasted As he has
not been able to make an impressive
showing there, his availability as
republican candidate is materially
diminished, for it is with the middle
west that the republican leaders are
specially concerned for the purpose
of the 1916 campaign.
Fords vote is the most remarkable
development in recent American poll
tics. He knows he has no chance OF
being nominated. He admits he has
had no experience in public affairs
and cares so little about them that he
rarely ever votes, and yet he ran
ahead of even Roosevelt. This was
more an anti Roosevelt demonstration
than a pro Ford demonstration. Some
attempt to explain it on the ground
that Ford rallied the solid pacifist
vote, but at least in Nebraska that
could hardly be the case, because
there Bryan was defeated in his party,
and if the pacifist sentiment is strong
at all in Nebraska there would prob
ably be small difference in its express
sion as between the two parties.
The colonel may be able to over
come the loss he has sustained so far.
If he shall not do so his chance at the
national republican convention will
be slim.

among the number was Alex Tarbet.
The next heard Of him was few

paths, to make the state better by ex-
alting it's citizenship.
"All his impulses were generous and
high, and his every struggle for sue

THE COLONEL AND MORAL
ISSUES.
MORAL
(Springfield Union, Rep.)

One of the clever cartoons of the
campaign of 1912 represented Colonel
Roosevelt as giving the admonition,
Don't talk tariff, Munsey, talk Ar
mageddon." 1t is evident from his
latest statement that the colonel is
now in a similar mood. He delivers a
biting retort to the recent speech of
Senator Harding, chosen temporary
chairman of the republican national
convention, in which the tariff receiv-
ed prominent mention. Protesting
that the campaign must not be wag-
ed "only, or almost only" on the tariff
issue, the colonel righteously declares
that such an appeal would be an ap-
peal to the belly and not to the soul of
the American nation" and that "the
national honor is a spiritual thing that
can not be haggled over in terms of
dollars"
While Colonel Roosevelt makes no
specific reference to Senator Harding
or his utterance, 1t is thought the col
onel suspected that the senator was
harboring presidential aspirations as
we'll as forecasting the lines of his
keynote" speech in June. In agreeing
that it is necessary to return to a pro-
tective tariff, the Armageddon prophet
insists that this issue is secondary to
that of national conscience"
The colonel need not worry about
the disposition of the republican par
ty to look after the American rights.
At Chicago the party will deal cap
ably and honorably with questions of
this nature as well as economic issues.
The candidate chosen will be sound
as to patriotism, and will be a man of
and force. These things
may safely be taken for granted. And
the tariff will be an issue of import
ance, whatever other issues may be
up But mere CONGRATULATIONS pitched
to moral key will not command so
much respect as they did four years
ago. The haste with which the pro-
leadership has shelved the
transcendent moral issues of 1912 will
cause widespread doubt as to their
value, on the part of persons temper
lrily impressed by his deliveries. If
we can get along without the recall of
judicial decisions and the arbitrary
enforcement of presidential primaries,
t is possible that the reelection of the
colonel is not an absolute essenn..l Of
rational salvation. At any rate the
epublican national, convention prom
ses to be composed Of men well able
o pass on these matters.
