himself, he was not mixed up in the 1912 fracas; that he has the ability to fill the place better than any one else: that this fact was demonstrated recently at Chicago because the Hughes boom, in spite of popular be- lief, was not a spontaneous success from the outset, but one that required most skilful organization and nursing
 The movement that produced this avalanche of sentiment in the direc- tion of MT. Hughes was pronounced by it's leaders as a fight primarily against the Old Guard attempt to hold control of the republican or ganization as that effort became ap- parent at the meeting of the national committee in Chicago. It is the con- tention of the revolters that the sub- committee was "packed' against Hitchcock; that all it's members ex- cept Williams originally were anti Hughes in the pre-convention fight, and that from the beginning the pro- Ceedings of the national committee meeting were directed toward ostra- cizing the originators of the Hughes m mOVement.
 Movement Grows
 The nucleus of the revolt against the Crane subcommittee and the effort to get the national chairman ship for MT. Hitchcock is the group of original Hughes leaders who whipped up the Hughes sentiment be- fore the convention and held the dele gates for Hughes during the first two ballots It was said, too, by the Hitchcock nationol committeeman yesterday that in their present fight they are backed by progressive leaders who would willingly support l leadership of the cam |

to the leadership of Mr. Hughes or MT. Wilson.
 MT. Wilson has been tried and found wanting. His party, because of it's devotion to the outWorn theory of state rights, and because of it's re- liance upon purely sectional support, stands against that spirit of far sight ed nationalism which is essential if we are to deal adequately with our gravest social and industrial prob lems. MT. Wilson and his party have in actual practice 1amentably failed to safeguard the interest and honor of the United States. They have brought us to impotence abroad and to division and weakness at home. They have accustomed us to see the highest and most responsible offices of government filled by incompetent men appointed only for reasons of partisan politics. They have dulled the moral sense of the people. They have taught us that peace. the peace of cowardice and dishonor and indif- ference to the welfare of others is to be put above righteousness, above the stern and unflinching performance of duty whether the duty is pleasant or unpleasant Yet in Mexico they have failed even to secure the peace which they thus sought; and they have failed in spite of the most ample opportun- ity and most ample warning, to pre- pare in any real fashion to meet the crisis which their own policy invited. They have taught us to put safety frst,'' safety before duty and honor; to put that materialism which ex- presses itself in mere money making, and in the fatted ease of life. above all spiritual things, above all the high and fine instincts of the soul. They have taught us to accept adroit elo- cution as a substitute for straight forward and efficient action. They have raised indecision, hesitancy and vacillation into a settled government tai policy.
 Mir. Hughes.
 Mr. Hughes has shown in his career the instinct of efficiency which will guarantee that, under him, the gov- ernment will once more work with vigor and force. He possesses that habit of traightforward thinking which means that his words will be correlated with his deeds and trans lated into facts. His past career is the warrant for our belief that he will
 
 system of invisible government which finds expression in the domination of the party boss ad the party machine. His past career is a guarantee that whatever he says before election will be made good by his acts after elec- tion. Morally, his public record shows him to be a man of unbending in- tegrity; intellectually, it shows him to be a man of original and trained abil- ity. We have the alternative of con- tinuing in office an administration which has proved a lamentable fail- ure or of putting into office an admin- istration which he have every reason to believe will function with efficiency for the interest and honor of all our people. I earnestly bespeak from my fellow progressives their ungrudging support of MT. Hughes.
 Yours truly,

loyal service to the nation, and of practical application of the precept that each man must be his brothers keeper. Furthermore, it is no less evident that this preparedness for the tasks of peace forms the only sound basis for that indispensable military preparedness which rests on universal military training, and which finds ex- pression in universal obligatory ser vice in time of war. Such universal obligatory training and service are the necessary complements of uni- versal suffrage, and represent the req lization of the true American, the democratic, ideal in both peace and war

Afraid or Himself

Joseph Jefferson, the actor, once
told this story to a friend:
~ was coming down in the eleva-
tor OF the Stock Exchange building
and at one of the intermediate floors
man whose face knew as well ~
know yours, got in. He greeted me
very warmly at once, said it WAS a
number OF years since We had met,
was very gracious and friendly. But
couldn't place him for the life of me.
asked him as sort of u feeler how
he happened to be In New York, and
he answered, with touch OF sur
prise, that he had lived there for sew
eral years. Finally told him, In Nh
apologize way, that couldn't recall
his name. He looked at me for
moment, and then said, very quiet
.ly. that his name was U. $. Grant"
What did you do, Joe?" his friend
asked.
"Do?" he replied, with a character
istic smile. "Wby, got out at the
next floor for fear I'd ask him II he
had ever been in the war.

Mixture of Grasses Best for Pasture

Pastures on the high priced land
should be highly productive. A mix
ture of grasses is usually better than
one grass sown alone. For northern
Colorado a good grass mixture is as
follows: Bronze grass, 10 pounds; or
chard grass, 4 pounds; meadow fescue
4 pounds; timothy, 2 pounds; alfalfa,
8 pounds. The bronze and orchard
grass come on early In the spring.
This is an advantage. Timothy and
meade on fescue grow more slowly than
the other two, but they make consid-
cradle feed. Alfalfa is legume, and
consequently benefits the soil. Itroots
deeper than the other crops. This
mixture liz recommended only for ir-
rigated lands. 1t will not do 80 we'll
on wet and seepy lands. Where bloat-
ing from alfalfa causes trouble, sweet
clover may replace alfalfa in the mix
ture.
For lands that are wetter than nor
NAL, a mixture Of bronze grass, ~ to 10
ponds add red top, 8 to l6 pounds Is
a good mixture. Another mixture for
similar conditions Is alsike and timo-
thy, sowing from to s pounds Of al
sike and or 10 pounds Of timothy
