they had not been arrested, accord

by the negro. He declared they
would have married wherever they
could have obtained a license ana
would have let the future take its
course. The husband of the woman
was expected to arrive Wednesday,
but he did not appear.
Mrs. Hood declined to make any
statement in addition to the one she
had already given out. saying she
would talk no more until her hus-
band arrived.
Further details of the flight of the
pair from San Diego we're received
While they apparently concealed to
some extent their Relationship while
on the train, IL appears the affection
shown by the woman for the negro
aroused comment among the passen-
gers.
No charge has been preferred in
Salt Lake against either Dodds or
Mrs. Hood. Leon Bone, special agent
for the department of justice, has
thus far found no basis for action
under the Mann law, and II remains
for the San Diego authorities to act.
Both Dodds and Mrs. Hood are still
in the city jail.
During the day the woman reiter-
ated her statement that she loved the
negro and would stand by him.
Dodds was asked II he would be
willing to return to California. He
said that depended entirely on Mrs.
nood-that If she wished to go back
with her husband. and II Mr.. Hood
would forget the past, he would let
her go; but II she wished to remain
with him he would be loyal to her.
He said he feared her husband would
take her back to California and then
turn her out. leaving her destitute.
In that case he said he would be
ready to provide Cor her as best he
could.

Says Roosevelt Will Not he n
Candidate

Charles d. Hills. chairman of the
republican national committee, be-
fore leaving for New York last
Tuesday after attending the ses-
sion in Chicago of the subcom-
mittee on arrangements for the ma
tional convention. discussed political
questions. including the possible can
didacy of Col. Theodore Roosevelt
for the republican nomination for
president.
"All the information | have is to
the effect that Colonel Roosevelt is
not a candidate for the republican
nomination" Chairman Hills said.
He has declined to permit his name
to so on the primary ballot in the
only three states where il has been
Observation-Disclosures, Nebraska and
Michigan.
I'm the statement issued by the
progressive national committee IL
was made plain that any reasonably
satisfactory man would be accepted
as the republican nominee. They in
sisted that they mean just what they
said, and we will take the statement
at its face value. I think we will be
able to nominate a mar who will be
elected.
I'm regard to Justice Hughes. nc

today toward the presidency In dis.
cussing the subject with a friend in
1912 Justice Hughes said that when
he went on the United States su.
preme court bench he took the vel
and renowned the world.
There is no man big enough to
refuse the presidency, in my opinion
IL he were nominated without hi:
consent have no idea what he would
do"
Chairman Hills called attention tc
the conflicting provisions of the di
rect presidential primary laws adopt
ed by the different states, and ex
pressed the opinion that ii would re
suit in much uncertainty and confu,
sion. There will be 9s5 delegates IN
the next republican national conven.
ton, and of this number sos. O,
about 81 per cent, will be chosen b,

There Is an urgent need for uni

states, in my opinion" said Chair
man Hills. 81 think a model should

urinary should be held In every state
ON the same date. I think some &C

the next national convention.
1.-The primary laws most discuss
ed are those of Ohio. where all del
eeates are required to make a irst
and second choice for president be-
fore they are elected; in Minnesota
and Wisconsin, where there is dis
satisfaction over the method OF in
struction: in California, where all
tho delegates are elected at large,
while the republican party has been
against the application Of the unit
rule since 1880. and in Texas, where
our party rule fixes the number OF
delegates at t~wenty-four this year,
and the state law provides for the
election of forty"
Republican national leaders who
attended the meeting expressed the
opinion that the convention would be
openminded and deliberative In the
matter of naming a candidate Tor
president. They indicated that they
would favor any available compro-
mise candidate except Colonel Roose-
welt. and said they believed the del
egates would be able to select a lead
err who would be satisfactory to ev-
cry element of the party.

The convention also adopted reso-
buttons favoring the appointment Of a

Another resolution called upon the
government of the United States to
place an embargo on imports OF live
stock or dressed beef from countries
where contagious diseases exist, to
prevent the spread In this country
of such live stock -scourges as the
foot and mouth disease.
The resolution relative to Mexico
as presented to the convention was a
compromise resulting from a confer
ence between members of various
committees who wished to criticise Sc
verely the administration's policy
with reference to Mexico and those
who were determined to combat any
effort to attack President Wilson or
to demand an armed Intervention
which might lead to conquest.
On the ground that neither the
president of the United States nor
Congress has been fully informed
relative to conditions in Mexico the
resolution also provided for the ap-
poihtment of a committee of three
members to go to Washington and
lay before government officials adj
ditional facts concerning treatment
OF Americans in Mexico.
Governor John B. Kendrick of Wy
oming led the forces opposing any
attack on the president and the reso-
luton as presented states that by
his resolution 1t is not proposed and
intended to seek Intervention In the
republic of Mexico. but only that suf-
ficient patrol be established as will
insure safety for live persons and
property of American citizens within
the nothern portion of Mexico. who
are justly entitled to the same"
Rigid inspection of meat by city
authorities and the establishment of
municipal abattoirs were urged in an
address by Ike T. Pryor of San An

The trail was taken ur
BY lone dog that passed tna. way;
And then the wise bellwether sheep
And drew the flock behind him, too,
As good bellwethers always do.
And from that day, Ger the hill and
glade,
Through those old woods q path was
made,
And many men wound in and out,
And turned and lodged and bent
about,
And uttered words of righteous wrath
Because twas such a crooked path;
But stil they followed-do not laugh
The first migrations Of that calf.
Who through this winding woodway
staIked
Because he wobbled when he walked.
: This forest path became q lane
That bent and turned and turned
again;
This CROOKED lane became a road,
Where many q poor horse, with his
load,
Toiied on beneath the burning sun.
And travelled some three miles in one.
And thus a century and a half
They trod the footsteps Of that calf
The years passed on in swiftness fleet,
The road became a village street,
And this, before men were aware
A city's crowded thoroughfare,
And soon the central street was this
OF a renowned metropolis.
And men four centuries and a half
Trod in the footsteps of that calf;
Each day a hundred thousand rout
Followed the zig-zag calf about;
And Ger his crooked journey went

They followed still his crooked way
And lost one hundred years each day;
For thus such reverence is lent

A moral lesson this might teach

For men are prone to go it blind
Along the calf-paths of the kind,
And work away from sun to sun
And do Yhat other men have done.
They follow in the beaten track,
And out and in, and forth and back,
And still their devious course pursue,
To keep the path that others do
But how the wise wood-gods must
laugh
Who saw the first primeval calf!
And many things this tale might
teach
But am not ordained to preach.
