The Colonel's Latest Drive

The New York Evening Sun, which
has been additionally an anti-Roosc-
welt paper and an open admirer Of
Justice Hughes, prints the following
editorial:
Once again the veering weathercock
of national politics points in the di-
rection of Theodore Roosevelt. Who
can wonder? The frank courage ard
patriotic wisdom of his great Detroit
speech put to shame the hesitations
and the reticences of his competitors.
When politicians go into the silences
on the eve of the presidential election
they can hardly expect great armies
of voters to follow them with enthus-
iastic shouts, nor yet remain on the
misty outside waiting for them to
match out thought or conviction.
There is kind of preparedness
which always attracts "the citlzenry.
1t is that shown oy the man who hos
definite and concrete views on the
problems of the day, who is convinced
in his own soul, can give reasons 70;
the faith that is In him and
is ready to lead in what no considers
the good cause. He appeals to the
minds of the masses, stimulates their
Imagination and arouses their admir-
alton. Out Of these elements are

But what the public wants to know
is whether Justice Hughes is the man
for the nomination in the present
crisis. They want to know where he
stands on the great questions of the
day, especially on the supreme one
which Colonel Roosevelt has so en-
phasized. They know Mr.. Hughes
very well as a man and they esteem
him in many respects more than Col
onel Roosevelt. His sobriety VI
thought and temperance of utterancc,
his rigity of principle and straight
forwardness of action are highly
priced qualities, which are worth to
him many thousands of suffrages and
would, indeed, insure his triumph II
the people assured that the views, tho
policies which he would support were
those which are vital to the nation
at the present time. The question is
not whether Mr.. Hughes is worthy
in a general sense, but whether he
is wise in particular field. Satisfy
the voters on this point and not even
the colonel can stand against him.
But the country has no light upon
his attitude. He has not spoken a
word. and his friends either have no
light to give or are restrained from
giving it. To US. 1t seems not really
fair to the people. II seems most un-
fortunate that perhaps the most suit
able man they could turn to in their
emergency is so yelled in mystery MS
to his most essential principles that
voters are deprived of the opportuni-
ty of deciding nationally upon his
availability. Can the people be reas-
onably asked to pick a president in
the dark?
The new strength which Colonel
Roosevelt exhibits today Is. as be-
tween him and Justice Hughes, al

papers that they have determined to

only way, but we trust the process is
not to be limited to an inquiry as to
whether he will accept the nomina-
ton II it be offered to him. This
question appears to us as superflu-
Gus as 1t is inadequate. Mr.. Hughes
has never said he would refuse the
nomination. He has carefully and
studiously avoided saying so, al
though he has most honorably and
in completest good faith declined to
be a candidate for the nomination.
The fact is, refusal OF the nomination
is unthinkable. Mr.. Hughes, if nom
mated, will accept.

born faith in him, confidence in his
leadership and enthusiasm for his
personality. Thus the colonel has de
cIared himself on the one great ques-
ton of the hour with patriotic pur
pose, historic foundation, logical ar
gument and transparent earnestness.
In a breath the wavering and dumb
tribe Of Burtons, Fairbank5es and
Cumminses, who either stand no.
where or dare not say where they
stand, begin to look like impossible
ties.
The Detroit speech may almost be
called an epoch-making utterance,
and 1t is not surprising that out OF
the sensation which it has created
comes TO new movement to force the
nomination or Colonel Roosevelt.
The committee headed by George Won
L. Meyer makes dramatic entrance
into the political arena at moment
of popular excitement and enthus-
iasm, and It would be rash to pro-
phesy any limit to its effort short Of
success. 1t is quite certain that this
new move cannot be stemmed by
pussy-footlng of any kind. The peo-
pie have had a taste of real discus
sion of the subject which occupies ev.,
cry mind and we believe their Ape
lite has been whetted for moro. Eitt-
er Colonel Roosevelt's demand for ne-
tional preparedness must be accepted

ONCE WEALTHY WOMAN
DYING FROM BEATING
Granddaughter of Adj
miral De Grasse Adds New
Chapter to Career

NEW YORK March 23,--Tt Is likely
that the turbulent career of Mrs. Jennie
de Grasse Whelp Monaghan soon will reach
an end in the Harlem Hospital, Unusual
facts came to light yesterday when her
first husband. Charles Whelp, and still
her best friend. sent her to the hospital
after she had been attacked by street
rowdies and had sought refuge In his
home at 2O3 West l35th street. When
in great distress, which was frequent in
the last 10 years, she always went back
to the man who had divorced her and
found friend. He confessed he still
loved her.
Mrs. Monahan. now a derclct of f6
years. was the daughter of the late George
Barclay Ward. of Huntington. L. l., who
left large fortune. Two of her brothers
are now said to be very wealthy real
daughter of Admiral de Grasse, who COM
manded n French fleet to support Wash
ington against the British.
As a girl in society she had led an ex.
ceptionally active life and formed associa.
tions which made her later life miserable,
Mr., Whelp found he was unable to change
her ways, and in 1896. two years after
their marriage, he obtained a divorce.
About IL years ago Mrs. Whelp was
married to a man named George Mono
han. Her relatives knew little about him.
When she had son year later, Mono
han disappeared and has not been heard
from since
Since obtaining a divorce Mr. Whelp
has befriended his erstwhile wife many
times He said she had become ad-
dicted to the excessive use of liquor and
had been committed to institutions many
times.
Four or five years ago she came into
10000, left by her father, and she be-
gan to spend the money along Broadway
In two years she had spent so much that
her relatives caused her to be committed
TO sanltarium at Amityyille, l.. l., as
an incompetent
She was released from there as cured
eight months ago, but returned to her old
habits.
