For Sake of Democrats
Don't Strike, Says Marshall
WASHINGTON. Aug. Is.

w WftDNIIINNA O4Fi NUBs NVs
VICE PRESIDENT MARSHALL
thinks the threatened railroad
strike should be settled at all costs.
Here's the way he viewed the situ-
alton today:
"Justice Hughes is way out West
making speeches. Railroad tie-up at
there, preventing his scheduled
speeches in the East. This would
give his eastern campaign managers
their one chance to carry the East
for him. We Democrats must pre-
vent such a calamity"

The Man with a Punch.

Samuel G. McMullin of Grand juno
ton has demonstrated that he is the
man with a punch. He went into the
Republican assembly practically un-
known, and came out high man on the
primary ballot in the contest for the
Republican nomination for Attorney
General. This is his way of doing
things. Should he be elected Attor-
ney-General he would conduct the Of
flee in the same maner. He knows
Colorado and her legal questions He
is one of the best posted men in the
state on the interstate questions that
have arisen over the foreign water
suits.
He was born in Philadelphia, Penn
sylvania, July 2, 1866, his father being
a Presbyterian minister.
He was raised in Ohio, studying law,
partly in Cincinnati Law school and
partly in the office of his uncle, C B.
Matthews. Justice Stanley Matthews
of the United Supreme Court was an
uncle, and he is member of a family
of successful lawyers. In November,

of cooperation is inequitablc. IT may
be altered and the ratio OF cooperation
fixed upon a basis equitable to both
the State or county and the United

The method followed In appropriat-
ing the money was explained by Secre-
tary Houston as follows: Ten per
cent of the amount available each year
will be withheld as n contigent fund.
One-half of the remainder will be
allotted to the states in amounts
which will be based on the area OF
National Forest lands in each state.
The other half will be apportioned on

contain. Amounts apportioned but

which remains unapportioned at the
end OF each year. will be reapportion-

allotments.

LANSING TO KEEP STILL
Criticism Are To Be Answered without Revealing State
 Secrets.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 1S.- (Spec. iaD-A new attack in flank Is to be made by the administration upon Charles E. Hughes
 President Wilson and Secretary Lansing have determined to adopt as the Democratic slogan: Politics should stop at the waters edge" Tn accordance with this declsion neither Mir. Lansing nor any Of his aids will take the stump during the campaign.
 They have the view, and will in, sist. that 1t is the duty Of all citl. zens in times of great world stress to sink partisanship and uphold the hands of the officials who are try ing to solve difficult international questions in the interest of the people ss whole
 Win ADsewer Criticisms
 It is to be expected the President will respond to the criticisms made by Mir. Hughes and that he will defend his Mexican policy and his European policy and recite the achievements of his diplomacy. But he will not according to reliable information obtained, reveal any thing that may be damaging to the country's plan in the future
 The negotiations with foreign gov ernments will take their orderly course. The administration fears they may be embarrassed by what Mir. Hughes is saying; that questions approaching settlement may remain undisposed of because of the expec- tation of foreign governments that Mir. Wilson may be defeated and that other terms, perhaps more ad- yantageous to those governments. will be obtained through delay. But the responsibility for such a delay will be laid at the doors Of the Re- publican candidate and the admins. tration will make 1t plain that it must not be attributed by the people to the Presidents procedure.
 Lansing to Remain Silent
 IT Secretary Lansing were to take the stump it is pointed out that the whole delicate fabric of international relations would have to be exposed Reasons for this or that step would be demanded by the opposition and the secretary would be forced to re- ply.
 Frequently the President has act ed in a certain way because of con fidentlal information conveyed to him by a foreign government The revc- lation of the action of that govern ment would not only arouse it to anger, but would embarrass it with other governments.
 Take. for instance, ono matter which sleaked to the public, that Of the Japanese demands a year ago on China. The Toho government de- manded that the Peking authorities maintain the utmost secrecy regard ing the negotiations Realizing that only the public opinion Of the world and above all. that of the United States. would cause the Japanese to modify their demands. China allowed the facts to leak out and the first news was received from indirect sources.
