Major General Wood was another
caller On Mr., Hughes al IN eoandi-
dates political headquarters In New
York city Thursday That distlng-
ulshed officer, perhaps unlustly is
rapidly becoming known as a polltl-
cal general with partisan affections
Springfield Republican.
We fear the distinguished officer
merits the reputation he has aequir-
ed in the last few months. SO far as
the public can judge from the news
reports he has not had his mind on
his regular work very much lately
For some weeks before the Chicago
conventions. he spent u good deal or
time comforting with Colonel Roos-
evelt about the latter's chances to
capture the Republican nomination
or turn II over to the general him
self. Since the convention the re-
ports have been frequent of his act
ing as emlssary between Mr. Hughes
and Col. Roosevelt
zen, Noou mas u boou Hlllltalg re-
cord and no one questions his soldier
ly abilities. What he Is accused of,
and justly, Is eXerably bad taste I'm
playing politics while holding his
high position in the army and per-
haps a little lack OF absolute loyalty
in apparently espousing the cause or
vociierant critic OF his command7
er-in-chief. We see now that he Is
under urgent orders from the war
department TO get busy at his reg
ular work and we hope he viii quit
his monkeying around In politics at
once and give his undivided atten-
tion TO something he knows some
thing about.-Ohio State Journal,

RED WAGON POLITICS

Deserted bull Moose friends. They
are mad. Yelled themselves red in
the face Spent their money Left

Now they are orphans. n stand pats
win, Moose will be crucihed. TedGy's
bubble has exploded He's the big
farce in American politics. He's ali
buster and bluff. Always broke his
bread with Gary, Morgan and big in
terests. Never made Rockefeller
mad. Wall Street likes him same as
boys love candy Teddy got his
Moose crowd by talking and acting
like a Democrat. He decided to rule
or ruin the G. 0. p. Failed in both.
It's the same old Joe Cannon spec
ial privilege party. Those who were
Moose in good faith and principle
will find the road into the Democratic
party shorter that the road back to
the G. o. p. The road is paved with
more honor. To begin with, Teddy
was an accidental president.-OtJa-

REPUBLICAN VIEW OF THE COLI
ONEL'S REFUSAL
lohlo State Journal. ]

tNfAAAh tANsAAN "NAA AAshAH
Col Roosevelt's refusal to run a
hopeless race and his Endorsement or
Mr., Hughes naturally enhance to a
considerable degree the lattrr's
chances of election The minor par
ty vote will amount to comparatively
little now and IL will be virtually a
straight out fight between the two
leading candidates The progressive
voters of 1912 were mostly republi-
cans and especially in view OF the
high character of the republican
nominee IL is reasonable to suppose
that the majority of them will re-
turn TO the old party.
But the old progressive leaders
vigorous championship of the Repub-
lican candidates cause does not
mean that the members Of his now
discarded party will follow him like
hock of sheep. Mr.. Hughes will
not get them all. Hhe colonel has
been their idol and il is impossible
for an idol to transfer the allegiance
of his deyOtees to another. Probably
most of the Progressive sub-leaders
will support Mr.. Hughes, for the same
reason that doubtless chiefly influen-
ces Col. Roosevelt, whether he real
ICES il or not, viz, because it appears
to be the only plausible way to es-
cape a terrific whipping. But it is
different with the rank and file. With
the hypuotic influence of Col. Roose-
yelt's personal leadership lifted, they
cannot be controlled but will vote,
Il 4
whom they consider the better man
The hopeful partisan who sits down
and finds the sum OF the Roosevelt
vote and the Taft vote of 1912 and
jubilantly compares it with the VIII
son vote is reckoning without his
most. Col. Roosevelt's dictum does
not settle the contest, of whose result
no man can form an intelligent opin-
ion until Mr. Hughes has outlined
his position clearly and fully and his
arguments have had time to sink in,
Hhe Progressive party, whose re-
quien, seems now to have been sound
ed, has been a curious conglomeTa-
tion of selishness, cOmercialism and
oySTweening ambition Oh the one
hand and lofty purpose and jealous
idealism, combined with a blind an0
hero worship on the
other The bulk of its membership
longed Tor something better, fairer
and nobler in our national life, per-
haps without knowing what that
was. 1t mas done some
good in its brief span. Just as any
sincere aspiration for better things
has it's beneficial effect on personal |
character, so party character mas
been purified somewhat by this revolt |
Of millions Of well-meaning men |
against the old time mercenary and
yenal party habits.

Harry t. Conn, Of Van Vert county,
one of the leading lawyers Of Ohio, is
candidate for Judge of the Court
of Appeals. After the death Of Judge
Donnelly, of that Court, in December,
1914, many Of the judges and lawyers
Of the district recommended Mr.. Conn
for the vacancy, and those who en-.
dorsed him at that time are now sup
porting his candidacy for the unex-
pired term, at the Democratic primary
to be held August 8, 1916.
Mr.. Conn served two terms, from
1903 to 1909, as prosecuting attorney
of Van Vert county, and among other
public duties, served in 1914, by ap.
pointment of the governor on the COM
mission created by legislative enact.
ment to provide for a simplifcation Of
the code Of practice and judicial pro-
cedure, among his associates on the
commission being Judges Johnson and
Wanamaker, of the Supreme Court.
Judge Follett, Of Marietta and Judge
Stahl, of Port Clinton.
Mr.. Conn's extended experience az
an attorney in both State and Fed
eral Courts and his strict integrity
make him an exceptionally strong
candidate for this important posi-.
tion.
He is recommended by the entire
Van Vert Bar, irrespective of the
political affiliations Of the attorneys,
is endorsed officially by the Van
Vert County Democratic Central
Committee, the Democratic Bxecu.
tive Committee, and is also endorsed
by the people OF the district gener
ally.

VOTER WILL TAKE HEED

As the average citizen in this coln-
try is better off now than he ever has
been before, he will 'stop, look and
listen" good while before he takes
the leap into the dark which the Re
publican chieftains are most cordial
ly and even frantically inviting him
to take.
They offer him nothing better,
nothing new, nothing concrete. They
simply stand at the side of the road
making faces and throwing brickbats
at the Democratic procession as it
sweeps grandly on to victory with
bands playing and banners flying. -

[Joseph Schmidt, in Ohio State Jour
nal.
The forthcoming statement from r.
r. will doubtless be verbose in eX-
planning and justifying his course in
abandoning his party, as he knows
how to make out good case for his
side. If he decides to mount the
Hughes band wagon and the latter
should win, he would claim the cred
it; if Wilson wins, he will be the log
tical candidate for the Republican
party in 1920 and will deserve it.
The Progressive party having SER
we'd his purpose, he has deserted and
the encomiums hurled at him from
Chicago by such true ProgressWes as
Hiram Johnson, Victor Murdoch,
William Allen White and others were
couched in terms of warmth so for
chile that they precluded printing.
The statement by William Allen
White, as published in the Chicago
Herald June IL, turned the light on
the betrayal of the Progressive par,
ty by George w. Perkins and the part
Roosevelt played in that betrayal.
The genuine Progressives fondly inn
agined T. r. to be one of them; when
as matters turned out, he and Per-
kins were with the reactionaries.
1t must be a somewhat bitter exper-
fence for the true Progressives where
such boundless faith in their idol was
so rudely shattered and he proved to
be rank gutter and migrate Cold
bricked and fiim-hammed politically
as they were, their erstwhile leader
will in his convincing manner and
farewell addresses assure them, per-
haps, that he was on the level Geo.
W. Perkins and T. r. are hard pair
to beat and all disillusioned Progress
ives had better not forget that there
is a sucker born every minute"

AN EMERGENCY NOW AND NO
MONEY

The matter of financing the mill
tary work in the state in connection
with the troop mobilization presents
a serious problem. This is due to
the fact that the expense makes a
real emergency for which the state
is unprepared under the appropria-
tion plan. The emergency fund for
the fiscal year has been dissapated
for matters that did not constitute
real emergencies and a high record
over former years established. 1t was
used to pay salaries of additional
men used in the various departments
and make up the deficit caused by
the mismanagement of the state fair
last year. Shortsightedness in the
appropriations for various activities

The power of candidate Hughes in
controlling public opinion is shown
in his action as governor of New
York, when he sent a special mes
sage to the New York legislature ad-
vising against the ratification of the
Income Tax amendment to the Unit
ed States constitution. The Hughes
message was used by the opponents
of the income tax before good share
Of the Legislature Of the various
states and was widely circulated
through the metropolitan press. The
net result when the returns were in
showed IS states for the income tax
amendment and just three support
ing the Hughes opposition, namely
Utah, Rhode Island and Connecticut.
Every great piece of constructive
legislature enacted during the Will
son administration has received the
support of both houses of Congress,
support given in recognition Of the
wisdom of the legislation. 1t is awk-
ward now for these same statesmen
to follow their candidate and criti-
cize their own votes.

THE HEAVENS IN JUNE
By PROFESSOR DOOLITTLE Of the University of Pennsylvania

The last few months have been noteworthy ones because of the re- markedly large number of bright planets which shone in the evening sky. Indeed, at one time, every one of the five naked-eye planets might have been seen in the early evening, and doubtless there are many readers of these monthly papers who derived much pleasure from studying these most interesting worlds in the telescope and from watching their continual and various motions among the winter con stellattons.
 The first deserter from this com pany of beautiful worlds was the planet Jupiter, which withdrew from the evening sky on April 1; but at this time Venus was nightly becom
 ing so very brilliant in the west, where also Mars and Saturn shone brightly, that the absence of the Giant Planet was hardly noticed On May 12, also, Mercury ran so unusual ly far upward in the evening sky that with but little effort this most bril- liant, silvery world could be detected and examined in the telescope. The spectacle presented in the evening heavens at this time far surpassed that of the morning sky, where Jupiter reigned alone, pouring out it's steady,

There is a growing tendency among. women of culture and fashion to pay more attention to hygienic means or preserving their charms The advent Of mercolized wax doubtless mas been largely responsible for this.

The wax peels the skin so gradually. in such fine particles, no discomfort is experienced. The fresher, younger skin beneath. wholly in evi- dence within a week, or two.
