WARREN q. l-AllJ!-xG, TEMPORARY CHAIR
MAN OF REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONvEN-
TION.
there will be at least a dozen posi-
bilties before the Republican conven-
ton when the delegates gather.
Roosevelt Prominent Candidate.
Roosevelt is one of the leading posi-
bilities today. He has already been
president for seven and one-half years,
having served three and onc-half years
of McIzinley's second term after the
Ohio man was killed and having been
elected in 1904. Writing about Roose
velt's actions and life would be useless,
for he is the best known man in the
country and has occupied the limelight
more than any other public servant.
Supreme Court Justice Charles e.
Hughes Of New York is another lead
ing possibility, although he has stated
time and again that he was not a can
didate for the nomination. His posi-
ton on the bench makes it impossible
for him to state any views on questions
that occupy the minds Of political lead
ers His friends say, however, that if
the nomination is rendered him he will
resign from the bench and become an
active candidate against Wilson. He
was governor of New York state for
two terms before going on the bench.
Elihu Root is another possibility hail
4ho +ofo
is known as a conservative and is a
representative of that wing of the par
ty. He was secretary Of state during
the Roosevelt administration and later
was elected United States senator and
served one term Of six years.
, Charles w. Fairbanks is Indianas
favorite son. He was vice president
during Roosevelts last term and prior
to this was United States senator for
two terms. His home is in Indianap-
oils
Mccall Has Backers.
Samuel W. Mccall will go to the Chi
cago convention with the support of
some Of the Massachusetts, and other
delegates. He is governor of Massa-
chusetts, ex-representative and one of
the best known men in the country.
William E. Borah will be Idabo's IA
vorite son, and other delegates may be
Instructed for him. He has taken a
leading part in the proceedings of the
senate since 1907 and is recognized
as one Of the ablest members of con-
gress.
Senator Albert B. Cummins Of Iowa
is another favorite son who will re-
ceiye some votes on the first ballots.
Like Borah, Cummins is a leading
member Of the senate, having been

Rafting Past.

Galesburg OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
That the days of rafting lumber on
the Mississippi river are over seems
a certainty Probably that river VIII
never again bear along those I'M
mense RATS or logs that years ago at
tracted so much attention. we can
recall seeing several such great rafts
on the Mississippi river made up OF
hundreds and hundreds of great iogs'
picturesque spectacle, on their way
TO the saw mill centers along the
river, where these logs were Trans
formed into lumber.
The reason for this cessation is IN
the fact that the great pine forests
OF the north have been depleted. NO
conservation was practiced. Those
