TOWARDS HUGHES

Washington, May 1.-THE unchaperonod d
and unauthorized movement in behalf nt
the nomination of Justice Hughes as tire
republican candidate for president is ex-
pected to be materially strengthened soon
by announcements of important republ
can leaders advocating his selection.
Some Of the old line leaders are credited
with having made up their minds to sup
port the ex-governor of New York, and
enthusiastic Hughes men here are pre-
dieting that when the republican national
convention meets in Chicago on June
the Hughes sentiment will be so strong
that the Justices nomination will come
on the second ballot.
EX Senator W, Murray Crane of Nhssa-
chusetts, who has always been accounted
one of the Old Guard is said TO be foi
Justice Hughes. Positive statements tc
that effect are brought to Washingto~
from Massachusetts and New York
Those who profess to know something
about Mr.. Cranes position say he be
licves that with Justice Hughes as t.,
republican nominee republican victory il
the national election would be sure. Will.
with any other candidate the outcome
would be- involved in doubt.
Mr.. Crane is one of the four delegates
at-large to the Chicago convention. The.
,, were elected without instructions in tn
face OF an opposition ticket pledged L
| the candidacy Of Colonel Roosevelt. a
least one other of the delegates at -arg
is believed to be strongly in favor of JUS
! tcc Hughes.

welcome.

For Brouillard it had seemed the
most natural thing in the world to fall
under the spell of enchantment. He
knew next to nothing Of the young
woman's life story; he had not cared
to know. 1t had not occurred to him
to wonder how the daughter of a man
who drilled and shot the holes in his
own mine should have the gifts and
belongings-when she chose to- display
them-of woman Of much wider
world. It was enough for him that she
was piquantly attractive In any char.
acter and that he found her marvel
ously. stimulating and uplifting. On
the days when the devil Of moroseness
and irritability possessed and mad
dened him he could climb to the cabin
on high Chigringo and find sanity. 1t
was a keen joy to be with her, and up
to the present this had suficed. sep
"Egoism is merely another name for
the expression of a vital need,"' he
said after the divagating pause, de-
filming the word more for his own sat-
'isfaction- than in self-defense. -.
"You may put it in that way If you
please" she returned gravely. What
is your need?"
He stated it concisely. Money!
lot Of It."
How singular!" she laughed. She
got out of the hammock and came to
