Anybody's Race

Colonel Roosevelt has declined to run for president on the pro- gresslve party ticket. and has come out in letter advising all his friends to vote for the repub- lican nominee B. Hughes.
 Perennial Candidate Bryan has again declared himself a demo- crat, and has said "God bless you" to President Wilson, the democratic nomineefor president. It is presumed that he will offer his services to the democratic campaign managers. provided the said managers will agree to the chautauqua statesman's price.
 In the national campaign there will be but two main contestants the democratic and republican parties, since Roosevelt has elim- mated himself and the propres- sive party. The fight for victory will be a merry one. and neither side has any advantages at the start.
 There are probably two million more republicans than democrats in the United States. but this is offset by the advantage the demo- crats have by reason of being the party in power. On the other hand each party has prac- tically an equal handicap-the democrats are handicapped by the support of Bryan, the repub- licans by the support of Roose- welt.
 The leaders of the two parties are equally matched. and the winner will be decided at the election in November. Should Wilson handle the war which is practically sure to come with Mexico in statesmanlike man. her, his election is almost cer- tain. Should he show himself incapable of meeting the situation with firmness, the election of Hughes will follow.

Superintendent of Education.
which now exist.
Supt. Fuller deserves special
praise for the management of affairs
coming under his supervision, it be-
ing a fact that all school claims have
been settled to date, with no out
standing indebtedness. Through his
efforts and the cooperation of citi-
zens in rural districts, new buildings
have been erected and equipped with
modern furniture ard fixtures, with
comparatively little cost to the dis
tricts and county. We would urge
upon the citizens of u county, first
of all, the education of u boys and
girls. See to it that you have a con-
bcientious body of trustees and eff
ficient teachers; consider it a duty
equally as important, to visit your
school as to attend your church, and
make an effort to surround your
child with advantages which would
fit him to respond to the demands of
a business world.
