Republican Leaders Hint
Colonel Still Objects
to Whitman.
NATIONAL CHAIRMAN
NOT SELECTED YET
Headquarters of Both Parties
Open for Business-Daniels
Visitor Here.

Activities at the various political
headquarters took slump yesterday
with the principals away. Charles f.
Hughes will be back at campaign head
quarters in the Hotel Astor this morn
ing, and Colonel Theodore Roosevelt is
expected to come in from oyster Bay to
the Offices of "The Metropolitan Maya
zine Vance Mccormick, the new chair
man Of the Democratic National Com
mittee, will be on hand at Wilson head
quarters in the Forty-second Street
Building.
With Mr.. Hughes and Colonel Roose-
welt in town at the same time again
talk Of continued negotiations toward
completely uniting the Republicans
and Progressives was revived yester-
day. While it is practically sure the
Colonel will urge the Progressive Ma
tional Committee. which meets on the
Goth, 10 substitute Mr. Hughes's name
for his at the head of the ticket. it is
still question how fa- the Roosevelt
influence will throw the Progressive
support TO Hughes. There is still a
good deal to be done to placate the
more radical Bull Moosers. il was slid.
Whitman in Way.
Colonel Roosevelt's reluctance to in
dorse Mr.. Hughes was attributed 70 the
prominent part taken by Governor
Whitman in the Hughes forces By Re-
publican leaders yesterday. Despite the
activities of George W. Perkins last
Saturday. when he conferred with the
Colonel and the Governor. it is under
stood the breach between the two men
has not been entirely healed
The question Of a Republican ma
tional chairman. who will manage Mr..
Hughes's campaign, is still TO be de-
cided. There are several names in the
list which are receiving serious consid-
Grafton, including William r. Wilcox,
Colonel William Hayward, William
Loeb, George b. Cortelyou, Darwin X.
James and James X. Sheffield.
As Mr. Mccormick already has the
machinery of the Democratic campaign
well creased and in running order at
his headquarters, il is expected the Re
publican candidate will speedily select
the new chairman so as not TO allow
the Wilson forces TO get too much Of
head start
Democrats Are Ready.
Glistening desks, corps of stenog-
raphers and f battery OF telephones
were installed on the second and third
floors Of the Forty-second Street Build
ing yesterday. The National Demo
cratic Committee ordered them there
for the coming campaign for President
Wilson.
1t was said yesterday that the cam
paien of vote-gettng is already in full
swing. Josephus Daniels was one OF
the callers yesterday.
Among other visitors was Wilbur
Marsh. treasurer of the committee, and
Henry Morgenthau. Frederick b. Lynch
chairman Of the national executive
committee, was another interested by

Throwing Money at Some
thing You Cant Hit.

Thrift is that feeling which
comes over you when you know
you'v been stung. Did you ever
notice the man at a summer resort
who steps boldly up to the coun-
ter, lays down a nickel, picks up
three balls and throws them wild
~ at a negro's head, a row of
grinning dolls, or some other con-
traption devised to lure him
away from his nickel, hit nothing
and walk away with detected
look?
Did you ever 60 on an outing,
or on a nights pleasure bent, and
be "good fellow "good
spender,' and 60 home with that
what-did-I- get-out-of-it-feelin
Did YOU ever attend an auction,
lose your head and buy something
YOU didn t need and couldn t use,
at price twice as much as it was
worth and have the same sensa-
ton?
That was your conscience enter
ing protest against waste-your
thrifty self STRUGGLING against
your thriftless self, trying to
show you that you waste money
only to regret it. and, even tho
you forget it, you won t after the
situation.
Every summer resort is built
upon the proposition that most
everybody wastes certain
amount of money, gets foolish at
times, takes a throw at something
they know they can't hit, just to
see how it feels.
Did you ever stop to consider
that nothing at amusement re-
sorts costs over ten cents except
food? Summer resorts know that
human nature is frivolous in the
Gummcr time. bound to spend a
part of the week s wage in being
foolish. generating thrills, that
even though innocent are costly
and only thrills after all. And

tertainments that has been held

ioyed in a very informal way, the
18th birthday anniversary Of Mr.

tic science.

BLOOD THE SEAT OF
DISEASE.

An eminent authority on nerv-
Gus diseases has announced that
the blood is the seat Of all disease.
How important, therefore, that it
be kept in a pure, healthy condi-
ton. For this purpose our local
druggists, the H. E. Walker Drug
CO., guarantee Vinol because it is
a combination Of the three most
successful tonics known, iron in
its most soluble form, the medici-
nal extractives Of fresh cod livers,
without oil, and the norishing
properties Of beef peptone. Can
you imagine anything betteri

if the crop of foolish folk were
not bumper one every year, and
if the stings of conscience were
unheeded, there would be many
an empty booth at the beaches
this year.
You can spend your money
foolishly so long that your con
science will not trouble you, just
as YOU can cultivate bad habit
SO long that you cease to THINK
it wrong.
Even the best Of us, with the
most careful management, are
bound to waste a certain amount
of money. Somehow it gets away
from us, try as we will to pre-
vent it. But the man who dellb-
erately throws his money at
something he can't hit, whether
it be negro's head Of a business
proposition, must not complain II
the ball goes wide Of the mark.
The crowd would rather look
on while you throw your money
avav than to throw their own;
but what compensation have you?
When your money is gone they
will buy no shoes for your babies,
nor pay your rent when you are
sick. nor subscribe to your pen
sion when you are down and out.
The weekly Corinthian. (Corinth, Miss.) 1894-19??, 1916-03-30

Many a catastrophe in life is
caused by throwing money at
something you can't hit, whether
in business, in society, or at the
beach; but listen to that still,
small voice-that sting Of con-
science, and do what it tells you,
for it stings to a profitable pur-
pose. 1t is waving a red flag of
danger to keep you safe. Heed it.

BOOMS FOR THE PREsIDENCY

Very few men become President without hav-
ing previously fostered experienced a boom"
boom is essential to the presidential success
of anybody but dark horse. The word 'boom,"
applied to a political movement was first
used by the editor of Republican newspaper i'm
st. Louis, Mo. pending the return of General
U. S. Grant from the trip around the world
undertaken by him in 1875, Immediately follow
ing his retirement from the Presidency of the
United States. The term used so persist
emily and so cleverly that It soon began to lodge
in popular thought, and to take on the mean
ing which the editor intended to convey when
he declared that the movement looking to a
third term for Grant booming" or when
he employed the invention as a noun and spoke
of 'the Grant boom"
The idea had come to him from a common
expression used by the people along the Missis-
sippi River. When that stream was at flood
tide and sweeping everything before 1t. it was
said to be booming" The st. Louis editor
aimed to convey the thought that the move-
ment for the nomination of Grant for the
Presidency in 1880 like the onward sweep
of a great river under such conditions, and
therefore a BOOM The term soon came into
general use, and has been applied in the United
States ever since alike to spontaneous and pre-
concerted or organized movements looking TO
the placing of some person in office of i'm
portance, not necessarily, but generally, the
Presidency.

THE TIN LIZZIE" VOTE

DETRoIT rose TO the occasion and gave
~ Henry Ford three 70 one vote for the
presidential nomination. At this writing it
looks as IL he had carried the whole State.
He defeated mere United States Senator
The exact day on which he will become Chief
Magistrate is evidently TO be calculated by
reference to the speed with which his indus
try spreads beyond Michigan and it's metropolis
20 other centres OF population in the country.
Unhappiy though. the tin Lizzie vote must
as yet be considered purely personal ana
complimentary, not to say local. Mr. Ford
has not really attained the stature OF a
national figure; he is stiIl only an inter-
national figure. And his one big chance-of
getting the entire German-American vote
was lost when he did not succeed in making
peace in Europe. For II he had done that
at this stage Of the war, with Germany still
ahead Ia the acquisition, OF negotiable con
quered territory there is no once IN the gift

policy to depend practically green men and
place them against such weapons used
today? The trouble with us as n nation Is that
we are not war nation to begin with; we con-
slider ourselves invulnerable to attack; we cry
we are the richest and most sef-supportng ma
tion the globe, and therefore no nation dare
attack us. The present has shown
clusively that there Is not nation which is
not liable to attack. Witness Belgium, Serbia,
Poland, while small nations, yet II would have
been the same result had they been large nations.
We will also take Mexico. While she is a
pEmy compared to us as nation, yet even she
dares challenge us and even invades our border
and kills soldiers and citizens without
moments warning. Mexico knows our weak
ness in defense as well as all other nations, and
1t has been demonstrated that have all
want to attend to on account of our small forces.
which we are compelled to depend upon. Why
will our President and our Congress keep each
other in doubt regarding the forces needed to
protect us?
Why do we not have a compulsory military
service? Let every man from IS to 45 be
PEELED to serve his time in the army they do in
Europe; the Constitution Of these United States
strictly puts this clause in it's body. If we have
such military law then every man will have to
do his share and the working classes will not be
compelled to shoulder the responsibility of war
while the rich stay home and reap the profits or
simply go as observers as lots do Let us drop
the Boy Scout business. which to my mind is
nothing more or less than nonsense, and walt
until the boy gets old enough to understand
what military training really is Then, when he
arrives at the age of 1S years. put him In the
army under the compulsory laws. and we will
then have defense we can be proud of. The
cry that big army leads to war is all nom
sense, as we are fast rushing into one, with a
small one. The very people who have been cry
Ing against preparedness are now bowling be-
cause we are fast approaching crisis in Mex
leo, but they do not tell why we are in the
muss Let us drop this playing soldier, and IL
we can't get the men we need then let us have
compulsory military laws Then we will see
who are our patriotic citizens and who are not.
