PERKINS A BIG FACTOR IN
POLITICAL UNITY

Second only to Colonel Roosevelt,
himself, the credit for bringing
about political harmony in Chicago
belongs, and rightly belongs, to
George w. Perkins.
But for his masterful and ire
mendously resourceful handling Of
the radical and emotional forces Of
the Progressive convention 1t is more
than probable that we should have a
third ticket in the field today headed
by some other man than Colonel
Roosevelt.
1t is perfectly safe to assume that
at no time had Colonel Roosevelt the
slightest notion of accepting a NOM
ination alone from the Progressive
convention. Neither had Mr.. Perkins
any such notion.
The great mass of delegates in the
Progressive convention-made up of
admirers of Colonel Roosevelt, keen
admirers of Colonel Roosevelt, wor-
Slippers of Colonel Roosevelt, and
fanatical worshipers Of Colonel

CAMPAIGN LITERATURE

The campaign literature has be-
gun to arrive. Editors all over the
country received this morning the
first copy Of "The Bulletin" dated
June IL, and bearing the legend: "Is-
sued from the. permanent headquar-
tiers of the Democratic national COM
mittee." Bearing in mind the date
of issue the second paragraph under
the heading Editorial Suggestions"
is very frank. 1t says:
Well, well know in a day or
two who'll run a bad second in
November.
The only thing political that we
will know in a day or two is the
nomination of Woodrow Wilson. We
would suggest to the members of
the Democratic national committee
who vouch for this paragraph that
they make a fight anyway. A Maine
politician once gained temporary
fame by announcing that "God hates
O gutter"

he COMES FROM INDIANA

It may or may not be true that
the native Indianan baby is taught
first to say 81 would rather be right
than to be Vice President" II it is
true it is the logical result Of the
selection of so many candidates for
the Vice Presidency from the Hoo
sier State.
OF the twelve national campaigns
since the civil war Indiana has
furnished the Vice Presidential can
didate of one of the two lead
ing parties in seven Of them. For
the Republicans, Schuyler Colfax
ran with Grant and Fairbanks with
Roosevelt.
In the Democracy Hendricks ran
with Tilden, English with Hancock,
Hendricks for a second time was
ticketed with Cleveland, Kern raced
to defeat with Bryan, and Marshall
had better luck with Wilson. The
total score is seven entries and four
victories. That makes Fairbanks
look like a good bet in 1916.

MR.. HUGHES SECRETARY

Mr.. Hughes candidacy brings into
prominence a Washington young
man whose reputation babe fair to
be that only Of an excellent private
secretary to Justice Of the Supreme
Court. Mr.. Green has, however,
shown in the past few days that he
was equal to more than secretarial
demands, and his dealing with the
newspaper men who have made
strenuous demands for information
has been tactful, pleasant, and sat
isfying. Mr.. Green was reared here,
IL q product Of the Washington pub
lie schools and Georgetown Univer-
sity, and was chosen by Mr.. Hughes
as his secretary shortly after his APP
pointment to the bench. We con-
graduate Mr.. Green on his oppor-
tunity and commend his beginning
in public life.

THE MEANING OF MR.. ROOSE'
VELT'S CONDITIONAL
DECLINATION

Among some newspapers, and
therefore probably among many peo-
pie, there is as yet misapprehen-
sion of the full meaning and effect
of Colonel Roosevelt's conditional
refusal Of the Progressive nomina-
ton. His action was an especially
adroit and at the same time an eff
fective disposal not only of his own
but Of any candidacy on the Pro-
gressive ticket in opposition to
Hughes.
If Colonel Roosevelt had immedi-
ately and unqualifiedly declined the
nomination Of the Progressive dele
gates in convention, in the heat of
passion they might have and most
probably would have placed some
other man in nomination-an out
and-out radical, Of course. But his
conditional decision sent to the dele
gates left nothing for them to do
unless they chose virtually to re-
move him from their ticket-but to
adjourn.
Once the convention adjourned
the whole matter, by the technical
procedure Of the rules and laws OF
such bodies, fell under the jurisdic-
ton of the Progressive national
committee, with which rests the duty
of filling vacancies arising from
withdrawals, deaths, or other causes
Away from the exciting surround.
ings Of the enthusiastic and devoted
delegates, in cooler temper and
calmer judgment, the national com
mittee, in close and sympathetic
touch with Colonel Roosevelt, will
respond to his patriotic appeal ant
cooperate with his resolve that there
shall be a united opposition to VIII
son and to the Democratic control Of
the United States Government.
When Colonel Roosevelt sent hi
message to the Progressive conven
ton he ended definitely his and it.

He brings to the Republican line re

campaign are indispensable, thus

Hitchcock ShOued He
Was Real Come Back
Victory of Hughes Silent Manager Is One of the
Most Remarkable Features of Campaign That
Has Just Closed

One OF the most remarkable features
OF the campaign that closed with the
nomination Of Charles Evan Hughes for
the President was the way Frank II.
Hitchcock came back"
He went into the campaign to back
a man who would not admit his can
didacy. and would not recognize Hitch
cocks right to assume to represent him.
But against these odds he marshaled
enough votes to insure the nomination
OF Hughes over the active opposition
OF several organized candidates.
So far as Hitchcock's work Is con-
cerned the Chicago convention Of this
year was much like the convention Of
nominated.
Opposed BY "Allies."
The Job Of rounding up delegates for
Taft was assigned to Hitchcock True
he had the active support of Mr.. Roose-
welt. who had picked Taft as his sue
cessor. but he also had the active OPP
position Of the allies" who were Joined
to defeat Taft's candidacy
Hitchcock was unknown as a national
figure before the Taft prc-convention
campaign. When he predicted that Taft
would have something over 500 votes
on the first ballot his opposing politi-
cal managers laughed at him. But when
the ballot was taken and II was seen he
had come within half dozen votes or
so of predicting the result they had a
more wholesome respect for him.
Then Hitchcock was made chairman
of the Republican national committee.
and managed Tafts campaign for cleo
ton. When Taft was elected he was
made Postmaster General.
Charles d. Hillcs was chairman of
the national committee and manager
of Mr.. Taft's disastrous campaign In
1912. II Hitchcock is named the new
chairman of the national committee he
will succeed Mr.. Hilles. who is now
holding the office.

older parties that will not soon be
forgotten. It brought an end to a
period Of dangerous reaction which
threatened the destruction Of the Re-
publican party. A crushing defeat
Of that party brought it back to a
realization of it's dangers and It's
duties and this year, renewed and de-
termined as never before since the
days of the civil war, it comes back
in it's power and confidence, to battle
for the right to administer this coun-
try's affairs, which II understands as
no other party ever has understood
them.
Governor Hughes, as head Of the
administration Of the Empire State,
proved himself strong, able, indie
pendent. He was not a creature Of
the politicians, not an instrument For
outworking the purposes Of little
selfishness. He stood for the public
interest, and Of that interest he had
wide and O clear vision. It is said
that he is not good Organization
man." but there are plenty Of good
organization men" in the party; it
will be the more disposed to keep the
widest view Of public interest always
in mind, II it has at it's head a man
who is not devoted, first and fore
most, to mere organization interests,
and who realizes that something else
is entitled to attention first.
Mr.. Hughes prompt acceptance of
the Republican nomination attested
that he has been, despite the seclu-
sion Of the bench, a close and un-
derstanding observer of events in the
last four years. He has lost moth
ing Of his directness and power OF
statement or analysis since the years
when he was engaged in the business
of public administration. He will
no doubt, make a great campaign;
no man in the country is a more
powerful expositor Of political is.
sues. His work in the campaign OF
1908 marked him as a great political
debater, a man comparable with Lin.
coin, as Lincoln was in the Douglas
discussions. He can meet Mr.. Viii.
son on the ground of rhetorical ex.
change, and at the same time he hai
a record Of performance without
hesitation, Of vigor without vacil.
lation, Of doing without delaying.
Mr.. Wilson is not going to be ar
easy man to defeat; but the Repub'
lican party has put a firm foot for
ward, and will move steadily through
the campaign, recognizing that t.
win it must deserve to win, deter

May Let 8 More Enlisted
Men Enter Annapolis

Secretary of the Navy Daniels in a
letter to Congress today urged legisla.
ton permitting the appointment OF
Naval Academy this year.
Under the law fifteen enlisted men
may enter Annapolis each year II they
are successful in passing the entrance
examination. Twenty-three have passed
and fifteen OF these have been certified
for appointment. Secretary Daniels be-
lieves that, owing to the shortage OF
officers. the additional eight should be
permitted to enter.
