THE HUGHEs DILENINLA.

Under the heading what Might In
duce Hughes to Run" the New York
Evening Post printed in one of its re-
cent issues a special dispatch from
Washington that is certain to attract a
lot of attention, and for reasons other
than the Importance of its subject
matter. The Post presented this story
under a two-column head on its first
page, which is an unusual display of
news for the Post to indulge in. The
story also bore the Signature of David
Lawrence, the Posts Washington cor
respondent. And it is likewise I'M
usual for the Post TO publish signed
news articles. So there are sure to be
some wiseacres. therefore, who will put
two and two together and insist that
this dispatch is of the inspired"
variety. Mr.. Lawrence, however, is
most particular to label it as his own
deduction after careful study of the
l. publican presidential situation so
far as it affects Justice Hughes or so
far as Justice Hughes affects it. ION
one condition." writes Mr.. Lawrence,
land it is the only condition that
would make it humanity possible for
Charles Evans Hughes to accept the
Republican nomination for the presi-
dency-would the distinguished Asso-
ciate Justice of the Supreme Court
leave the bench to lead the Republican
party. That condition is that the peo-
pie of the United States-not the
selfish political managers, the BOOM
ers, the contentious leaders, the
former officeholders, or those inter-
ested in avenginG this or that dcsertion
in 1912, but the thoughtful masses of
America-shal universally and spon-
taneously demand Mr.. Hughes" And
this it would seem is the very nature
of the demand that has developed for
Justice Hughes as the Republican
presidential nominee. 1t was the men
on the street, the rank and file of the
people, or the Republican voters
among them who began to talk
Hughes for president long before any
of the leaders picked up his possible
candidacy and urged it for one purpose
or another. And that is where the
Hughes talk is strongest today and it
seems to be increasing all the time
To measure its volume, of course, is
difficult, and probably it won't be
easy to convince Justice Hughes that
it exists. But perhaps by the time the
Republican convention rolls around
this sentiment among the Republican
masses will become so pronounced and
preponderant, the convention will be
convinced that it should consider seri-
ously only the name of Justice Hughes
for the nomination, and such a situa-
ton should surely be sufficient also to
convince the distinguished jurist of the
nature of the call extended to him and
of his duty to accept it.

COINTOHARDWhRE
Fullerton Brothers Lease New
Crosby Building.
Sporting Goods Firm Into a
Larger Field.

The new three-Story concrete crosby
building at 713 Kansas avenue will, at
ter March %, be occupied by the Full
lerton Brothers company, dealers in
hardware and sporting goods. The
new firm is an outgrowth of Fuller
ton Brothers sporting goods store,
known all over Kansas in a wholesale
and retail way for the last ten years.
Announcement of the move was made
this afternoon by Robert Fullerton.
Twelve years ago the two Fullerton
boys came to Topeka from Scotland.
Robert, an expert golf player. took
charge of the game at the Topeka
Country club. His brother Thomai
assisted him. Two years later they
started a 'hole in the WALL store, as
they designate it, at 72S Kansas ave-
nue..
In ten years tho firm has grown
from the sale of special sporting goods
to a wholesale and retail business with
a territory covering the entire state.
The manufacturing of golf goods was
one of the latest efforts of the com
pany.
Believing that there is room for a
hardware store handling only high
grade tools and domestic appliances,
the Fullerton brothers have ordered
their stock for the new store in the
Crosby building. The first floor will
be occupied by the new firm eXclu-
siveIy. The entire building will be
leased and rented.

EQUAL ANY NAVY
u. S. Sea Force Should Be One
of Strongest.
Admiral Knight Outlines Need
of the Nation.

Washington, Feb. 2S.-The navy
boards conception of the needs of the
United States as a naval power We're
outlined to the house naval committee
today by Rear Admiral Austin NJ.
Knight. president of the Navy war col
lege. In formulating the policy that
the navy should equal the strongest
afloat by 1925, he said. the board had
m mind the establishment of two
fleets, one in the Pacific powerful
enough to overcome any enemy there,
and the other in the Atlantic. where it
would be exceeded in strength only by
the British fleet. A total force slight
~ in excess of the strength of the
British fleet, he said, would accom-
plish this purpose and insure the
country against SO cut of a hundred
possibilities of international compli-
cations.
The nav is not ready to exert more
than so per cent of its strength in
ships and guns Admiral Knight said.
He urged immediate addition of u.s.
600 enlisted men and construction of
battle cruisers and scouting craft to
meet the situa ion.
American battleships. the admiral
said, are equal to any built and officers
and men of the fleet are well trained
and efficient, but If the Atlantic fleet
were ordered out today to defend the
whole coa-t line it would be- unable
to take all its available ships for lack
of men and world be compelled to
fight hnd1olded for lack of scouts,

this education in safety habits. you
will be doing a great service to So
ciety. No sooner do we become habit
ually attentive to anything than our
Imagination begins to work upon it.
We begin to make helpful suggestions
about it and that is one of the most
happy results of this safety movement.
Beginning with laws which rightly de-
mand certain physical, supervisory
and material precautions from en-
ployers, it becomes in the end ques-
ton of organizing to secure safe-work-
ing habits. This can only be done by
the cooperative, educative and per-
suasive work of men and women upon
each other. So long as safety was
solely dependent upon the observance
of legal enactments, the number of
casualties was not seriously reduced,
but when the employer took the initia-
tive, as certain notable corporations
did, at great expense. it was proved
beyond all doubt that men were eX-
pecting too much from the law and
too little from themselves.

WIPE OUT THE FAIR DEBT.

Passing the hat should be the east
est way to raise the $4,000 deficit that
is on the books of the Topeka Fair
association and which should be
cleared up so that Topeka's second
free fair can proceed along its course
without bunch of dead horses on its
hands. There probably isn't business
man in Topeka who wouldn't be glad
to contribute his share, or according
to his means. Some of them rightly
got rather tired of carrying the bur-
dens of the old pay-as-you-enter plan
Of fair which seemed to be getting no
where in particular. But all of them
are undoubtedly impressed with the
fact that the free fair is an entirely
different proposition and the best en-
terprise for Topeka that has ever
been launched. 1t can pay its own
way too. as it actually did on its first
trial. This $4,000 deficit represents
debts gathered by the oldfashioned

SCOPE OF sAFErY WORK.

Much has been written about in
dustrial injuries caused by culpable
neglect of employers to protect dan
gerous machinery and places and
some of the criticism of legislation it
has occasioned has been justified, but
the real problems of safety are far
more involved with the habits of the
workman and his overseer and their
mental and moral development, writes
John Calder in American Industries
for February. The great bulk of our
mill accidents has relatively little to
do with unprotected machinery and
much to do with poor supervision of
the help. unsuitable assignments, I'M
disciplined natures. ignorant minds
and careless or impulsive conduct. It
is this recognition of the psychology
of accident occurrence and its preven-
ton which has elevated the safety
movement from being solely a matter
of expert engineering service and of
statutory rules and regulations to the
higher plane of vigorous campaign
of persuasion and enlightenment
which no legislation could ever secure
and which demands steady personal
influence and example to secure i'm
provement. All this marks the i'm
mense difference between essential
progress and mere superstition. To
relieve community of a superstitious
liberation of evil is to do it one of the
greatest of services. 1t is like taking
the shaekles off a mans wrist or
weight off his heels He realizes the
meaning of the Holy Writ which
says, aye shall know the truth and
the truth shall make you free" A
man freed from the tyranny of fatal
ism believes more in life. 1t spurs his
intellect and makes him think to good
purpose. One of the great educa-
uonal results where the safety move
ment is earnestly and skilfully foster
ed is the way in which it stimulates
the attention. One simply cannot have
safety in plants and mills without sus-
tanned attention. It has got to be-
come the habit of men and women,
day in and day out. A man cannot be
attentive today and inattentive to-
morrow. He must give sustained at
tention and in seeking to create it YOU
are educating that man to one of the
most important mental functions If
YOU can go further and enter the home

ON MYERS CASE
Discharged Pen Employees Testimony
ut Lansing Tonight.

Members of the state civil servicS
commission will tonight begin the tax
ing of testimony in the case of ]. II.
Myers, discharged state prison EN-
oioyee. The testimony will be taken
at the state penitentiary at Lansing.
Myers was among the thirty-two
prison employees discharged during
the four months of the J. K. Coddins
administration following the ousting of
]. ID. Botl1in. According to q COM
plant which Myers has filed with the
state civil service commission, no reI-
sons were given for his discharge. He
claims he was dropped from the Jay
roll for purely political reasons and
to give place to a friend of Warden
Codding and the state administration.
Following the filing of a protest, the
civil service commission announced
that an investigation would be held.
The investigation will concern the case
of Myers alone-not the 81 other dis
