Lack of Courtesy Is

Pittsburgh, Pc, Nov. II. - Lack

the Presidency, according to an edi-
torial, THE Pity of 1t ALL" by A. p.
Moore. editor of the Leader.

scant notice." the editorial says,

I'm September when Mr.. Hughes
made his trip across the continent he
visited California. In that State, al
though Hiram Johnson was Cover
nor, the party machinery was con-
trolled by a few reactionaries, Mr..
Hughes entrusted the program for his
California trip to this so-called old
Guard
mfr. Hughes and Governor John
son were in the same hotel in Cali
fornia at the same time, and common
courtesy, if not political expediency,
should have led the Presidential
nominee to extend an invitation to
him.
But the invitation was not ex-
tended and Mr.. Hughes left the State
without speaking to Governor john
son or sending him any message. This
act was looked upon as most dis
courteous. Hiram Johnson is one of
the greatest men of this Nation. He
overlooked the slight that Hughes was
led to put upon him. But the people
of California were not so forgiving.
Man may forgive and forget a slap,
but woman will slap back. And the
women of California heard of Hughes
ignoring of johnson and they slapped
back"

MORE FIRE HOSE
SAYS MALEHORN
Chief of Fire Department Is
Hampered by Hose
Shortage

Fires which caused heavy losses
within the past three days have again
brought about agitation for additional
fire hose and more adequate system
of protection At Thursday night
fire in Franklin street firemen were
unable to accomplish much because of
insufficient hose and the poor condi-
tion of some now in use.
After three companies had started
to fight the fire it was found that no
more hose could be secured. Chief
Malehorn found it impossible to fight
the fire with such large shortage
and he was also handicapped when
some of the hose burst. 1t was
necessary for this reason to send for
help to Harrisburg. About ESQ feet
of hose burst at the fire.
The fire yesterday in Penn street
proved the necessity of smoke pro-
tectors. Fire Chief Malehorn filed a
requisition with council at its last
meeting asking for 1900 feet of new
hose and some smoke protectors. He
stated this morning that he must be
supplied with more material to in
sure better fire fighting.

Wilson Worried Over
Complexion of Next
House of Representatives

Williamstown, Mass, Nov. IL. -
President Wilson ignored politics to-
day to remain quietly with members
of his family here. Several hundred
kilograms congratulating him on his
reelection arrived during the morn
ing. Several telegraph operators were
kept busy. The President plans to
leave here shortly after 5 o'clock this
afternoon by train for Rhinecliff, N.
Y, where he will board the naval
yacht Malflower for trip down the
Hudson to New York City. He is due
to arrive in Washington Sunday night.
President Wilson is not concerned
over the refusal of the Republican
campaign managers to concede his re-
election. The chief thing worrying
him is the political complexion of the
next House of Representatives because
of it's effect on his plans for legisla-
ton. He has not yet received final in-
formation of that point.
The President is understood to take
the result of the election as a vindica-
ton of his past course and as approval
of the general outlines of his policy in
Democratic and foreign affairs set
forth by him in his speeches as can
didate for reelection.
After his return to Washington to-
morrow he will catch up Immediately
on official business and in the near
future will begin the preparation or
his December message to Congress.
Nothing has been given out as to
whether he will remain constantly in
Washington until Congress convenes.
The President took a short walk
this morning. He was invited to wit
ness q football game this afternoon
between the Massachusetts, Aggies and
Williams. On his return trip tonight
he will be given a reception at AL
bany, n. Y. Democrats there have or
= u
may speak briefly from the observa-
ton platform of his private car.

The line of march will be: from Mar

When President Wilson was elected it
was generally reported that Mr.. Nc
Cormick could have gone into the cab
met or to a foreign post as he had been
active in the financial end of the 1912
campaign. He declined to be consider
ed for anything but needed the call
of the President to run for Governor
two years later. Since then it has
been reported that he could have been
named to a high place, but preferred
to remain in Harrisburg. Friends here
doubt if he would accept the place of
Secretary of War.
The New York Sun in its article
to-day says:
Political gossip had it yesterday pretty
well settled that Vance c. Mccormick,
Democratic National Chairman, is to be
taken into President Wilson'S Cabinet
as Secretary of War to succeed Newton
D. Baker, who has announced that
he will resign March 4.
When this subject was broached to
Mr.. Mccormick he followed the usual
custom of successful campaign managers
and vigorously denied that he had any
intention or knowledge of becoming one
of Mr.. Wilson's official family. He
stoutly insisted that he intended to
return to Harrisburg to look after the
management of his newspaper.
But the underground political cur
rents yesterday buzzed incessantly on
this subject and in many quarters 1t
was regarded as reasonably certain that
Mr.. Mccormick would be offered the
place, whether he accepted it or not.
And a certain Democratic leader who
labored side by side with the National
Chairman during the campaign broadly
intimated that the gossip had more
than ordinary foundation
The President thinks very highly of
Mr.. McCormick's ability as an executive.
as was evinced when Mr.. Wilson forced
the Democratic convention IN st. Louis
last June to accept him as the National
Chairman. The closest personal relations
exist between the two, and the Presi-
dents implicit reliance on the Judgment
of the Pennsylvania editor during the
campaign Is cited as proof that he will
ask Mr.. Mccormick to become one OF
his official advisers

The State Department knows moth

little of the circumstances surround
