New York, Sept 27.-These COM
ments on the New Jersey primary
election returns were maze today:
Chairman William r. Wilcox, Re-
publican National Committee. - The
defeat OF Judge Westcott, President
Wilson's personal choice for Demo-
cratic United States Senatorial nomi-
nation, must be accepted as a repudi-
alton of the President by his own
party in his home State. The large
Republican primary vote and the COM
paratiYely small Democratic vote
must convince zone that the Republi-
cans are wide-awake and ready to
carry the Presidents own State for
Hughes in November"
Chairman Vanve c. Mccormick,
Democratic national chairman.-"The
New Jersey primary was a contest be-
tween Democrats, and the national
committee never takes part in pri-
mary contests. A United Democracy
will wage a victorious campaign on
the entire ticket We are confident
that President Wilson will carry New
Jersey just as the Democrats will be
successful in New York"
Frank H. Hitchcock. for mer Repub-
lican national chairman-"The Mar
tine-westcott primary returns are
very significant. If the President is
pleased with them Republicans surely
have reason to be delighted"

WASHINGTON PROPOSED
AS FRATERNAL CAPITAL
Chamber of Commerce Urges Central
izing of Headquarters.

Washington will become headquarters
for many of the largest fraternal orders
in America. II plans laid by the Cham
Der Of Commerce do not miscarry.
According to the statement of Presi-
dent P. T Moran, the Chamber OF Com
merce has been laying out lines all over
the country for some time with a view
to influencing large fraternal orders to
make Washington their permanent head
quarters. 1t is argued that this is the
logical place for them. where they can
do the most good and be in closest touch
with their interests.
There will be a meeting Of the execu-
tive committee OF the Chamber OF Com
merce at u clock today in its quarters,
1902 F street, to hear reports on progress
toward realization OF the scheme. Mr..
Moran said the effort Of the members to
get the fraternal orders here promises to
bring many thousands Of dollars to the
city through the business of the organ
izations and much more through conven-
tions and conferences.
The executive committee today prob
ably will take action on the proposed ex-
tension of the Capital Traction Company s
line on Eighteenth street in the rear of
the Pan-American and Daughters OF the
American Revolution buildings.

new CAR Line PLAN
| LAUDED And OPPOSED
Public Opinion on Eighteenth Street
Extension Sharply Divided.

Public opinion is divided on the
project to extend the Capital Trac-
tion Company lines down Eighteenth
street, In the rear OF the Pan-Ameri-
can and Daughters of the American
Revolution Buildings. to c street.
p. 7. Moran, president of the Cham
ber of Commerce, last night said he
would not favor the plan without
due consideration" and that at first
thought 1t would appear that II
would seriously mar the beauty OF
that section of Potomac Park" and
that the chatter of street cars be-
hind the public buildings would not
be exactly desirable"
DIR. Mark F. Finley, president OF
the West End Citizens Association
said he would not like to make a
statement for his organization, but
II appeared to him that the proposal
should be blocked.
ut will not relieve. congestion in
the section west of Eighteenth and c
streets" he said.
Edward F. Colladay, president OF
the Federation of Citizens Associa-
tions, said he favored any plan
which would open the public parks to
the use of the people who can't af-
ford to ride in private conveyances,'
and that the proposed extension will
not seriously mar the beauty of the
park"
Glenn Brown. of the Washington
Society of Fine Arts. favored the pro-
posaI on the ground that it would
enable people to get to the park and
the buildings.
Leon E. DesseZ favored extension
of car lines to all parks, including
Rock Creek.
The plan will be taken up at the
next meeting of the Chamber OF
Commerce and the West End Citizens
Association. The proposed lines OF
the Capital Traction Company would
pass down Eighteenth to c street and
west on C street to Virginia avenue
returning on that street to Eight
eenth. forming a terminal loop around
the triangle bounded by Eighteenth
street, C street and Virginia avenue.
1t is argued that such an extension
would enable employees Of the new
Interior Department at Eighteenth
and E streets to go directly to work
and enable visitors to the public
buildings in that part of the Mall and
to the tennis courts to avoid the Ions
walk from Seventeenth street and
Pennsylvania avenue.

roisons are retained in the system that
should be expelled.
The new herbal stomach remedy. Plant
Juice, assists nature by causing the
stomach to properly digest the food when
1t promptly Gissolves or neutralizes all
the poisonous acids that fermentlnC Good
has left in the stomach, and the digcs-
tive machinery, thus relieved of this
hampered acid accumulation, goes nat
Urally and normally about its work Of di-
Sestion without help of any kind Plant
Juice counteracts acid formation in the
stomach and so-called dyspepsia and in
digestion vanish, never to return.
Among the hundreds of local testi-
monials received praising Plart Juice
none are more interesting than the state
ment of Mr.. 0. N. McElroy, who lives al

them. Ny stomach seemed as though n
would not digest my food; my head
ached apd my nerves were affected So
badly that I could not sleep. 1 always
felt tired and worn out; my appetite was
very bad and I did not seem to want
food. What little food did eat did me
no good, and my bowels troubled me q
great deal 1 commenced to use Plant
Juice, and I truly felt better from the
very first dose, and in three days 1 was
feeling so well that could eat any kind
OF food and 1t did not cause me distress
afterward. I now have a good appetite
sleep good, do not have that tired feeling
when get up in the morning, the bowel
trouble has entirely disappeared ana
