est" stories about the candidate.
Generally little of each is done.
The third big problem for the ma
tionaI campaign manager is how to
spend the campaign fund. Part goes
for office rent, part for postage, part
for railroad fare, part for hotel
charges and part for paid writer's and
speakers. Then, if a Hanna is rum
ming the campaign and the fund is
eight or nine millions, the surplus is
spilled to local campaign committees
to filter to local politicians and the
country press. 1t was this spiII-oVer
that caused those charges of bribery
and corruption in the Mckinley
Bryan campaign of 1896.
No problem faced by the manager
of national campaign is more diff
ficult than adjusting the national
campaign to the local campaign.
There are always factions in the
party and the question arises at
once which faction is to be recog-
nized and given the assistance which
such recognition carries. Often
states are lost by wrong decision
on such a point
To get votes is an important thing
in a presidential campaign, but
strangely enough, it is not aII-impor-
tant. The man having the most
votes is not necessarily elected. The
candidate must get ELECTORAL
votes. Each state has electoral votes
in proportion to its population; big
states like New York and Pennsyl-
vania having more than small states
like Nevada and Utah.
A bare majority carries a state and
delivers all the states electoral votes.
So it is more important to get a bare
majority in a state like New York !
than to- get all the votes Cpopular) in |
half a dozen states like Utah. 1t is |
a problem in strategy.

and how to spend the huge fund he
administered And he knew how to
lend himself to newspaper publicity
and through the great dailies to help
mold public sentiment.
The outcome of the Wilson cam
paign was not affected in any way by
McCombs, his manager. It was pre-
destined from the moment the OppO-
sition party split.
If the candidate fits to public SEN
timent, that candidate wins. The
presidential drama is played to a
hundred million people over a period
of four years. The campaign period
between June Z and Nov. 9 merely
raises the curtain and turns on the -
lights.

Reply to Germany on U-BOats
Forwarded Today.
Designed as Last Say on Ship
Sinking Issue.

Washington, April 7.-Announce-
ment was made at the White House
today that President Wilson had prac-
tically completed consideration of the
Forthcoming communication to Ger
many and it was indicated that it
probably i'll go forward to Berlin late
today or tomorrow.
President Wilson, it was said, has
been steadily engaged on the note for
two days. He did not go to church
yesterday but worked practically all
day examining evidence submitted by
the state department.
The document. officials said, will
press the submarine issue to a deci-
sion. 1t was reiterated that the Sus-
sex case would form only link in the
chain of evidence the United States
will present to Germany to show
that her promises have not been full
filled.
Wilson i'm Positive Tone.
The document was characterized by
officials today as being very positive
in tone and they believed that only a
prompt acquiescence by Germany in
the position taken by the United States
can prevent a break in diplomatic re-
lations. Unofficial dispatches from
Berlin indicating that the German
government is ready to meet the Unit
ed States more than half way, it was
said, will not change the course of the
American government decided on at
Fridays cabinet meeting.
Before the communication to Ger
many goes forward the president and
Secretary Lansing may confer again
but it was said, early today, that this
was not absolutely necessary.
Is Indictment of Germany.
rhe president and his cabinet have
agreed on the steps to be taken and
the president is now finishing the
phraseolosy of the proposed commun-
ication, he intends to include in the
indictment of Germany's submarine
campaign attack on neutral vessels not
carrying Americans That will be
done on the broad grounds of human
ity and for the reason that many of
the neutral vessels were going to or
from the Urited States. The state de-
partment today received a cable from
Ambassador Gerard at Berlin, which
it was said authoritatively was devoted
entirely to editorial expression from
the German newspapers.

Christopher w. O'Brien VIII
Return to California.
Must Answer to a Charge of
Grand Larceny.
STOLE HIS WIFE'S DIAMONDS
Rude Awakening of Loves
Young Dream, Told by Police.
She Was StenOgrapher and
Had Got Him a Job.

CHRISTOPHER w. O'Brien was today
taken to Sacramento, Cal, where he
must answer a charge of the theft of
$4,000 worth of diamonds belonging tc
his stenographer bride. OBrien sur
rendered himself to Sheriff Kiene of
Shawnee county a week ago. The
mans downfall is story of brief,
impassioned love, q hasty wedding to a
pretty stenographer, a good job for
full measure and duplicity and treach-
cry as told today in the office of Gov
ernor Capper, who honored requi-
sition from Governor johnson.
Complaint against O'Brien was
made by Nanete O'Brien, the mans
wife. 1t was she who lost her love and
$4,000 worth of diamonds all in the
brief space of a few weeks, according
to the story as related by H. NJ. Rible,
Sacramento police sergeant, who came
to Topeka with papers for oBrien's S
return to California.
Nanette OBrien was a pretty stem
ographer in the offices of the Pacific
Gas & Electric company when o Brien
came on the scene. The young woman
had been an employee of the company
for several years. She was young, at
tractive and impressed O'Brien when
he first met her
He made love to the woman from
the start" Rible stated today 1T was
one of those cases of love at first
sight, 1 guess 1t was but a short
time until they were married"
She Got Him a Job.
O'Brien was without employment.
So Mrs. O'Brien was all that a real,
true, loving wife should be. She went
to the offices of the company, intro
duced her husband to the manager
and secured for him a position as a
solicitor.
Z have known the girl fifteen
years. said Rible, "and they seemed
to be getting along famously. 1t was
just about. the happiest little home
. you could imagine. O'Brien had a
: job. the bride was happy and every
thing was we'll
Then one day O'Brien was missing
A little investigation showed, also, that
the stenographer brides diamonds
were also gone. Both seemed to go
at the same time-husband and jew
/ elry.''
Then Mrs. O'Brien tearfully told her
story to the police. They looked for
the ardent lover, but he wasn't in the
city. He was not found until last
week when a telegram from Sheriff
Kiene told of the surrender of the
man to the county officials. Q'Brien
had walked into the sheriff's office,
stated he was wanted in California
for grand larceny, and asked to be
locked up. Requisitions for O'Brien' S
return were today honored by Cover
nor Capper and the man will be re-
turned to California for trial-unless
Mrs. O'Brien changes her mind and
refuses to testify against her husband.
A requisition was also honored to-
day for the removal of Ed Baruch
from Smith county, Kansas, to Jack =
son county, Missouri, where he is
wanted on a grand larceny charge. 1t
is claimed that he stole jewelry val
ued at $242. The man is under arrest
in Smith Center.
