PRESIDENT GLAD
VARDAMAN LOST,
SAYS LAWRENCE


Washington, Aug 81, Wash
ington IS pleased at the passing
Of James *. Vardalnan, If the
opinion OF David Lawrence, a
widely known Washington ccr-
respondent, is accurate,
An article today by Mr.. Law
renee carries the following head
lines in the Washington Star:
president glad to see Varda-
man go. Not the only one here
pleased by Harrison 5 victory in
Mississippi
Mr.. LaWrence's article is syn
dIcatcd aud will be printed by
more than twenty important
d ( " $ pa pc + ) throughout the
country. An extract reads as
follows.
President Wilson was not a
hit dlspleased by the result Of
The primary In Mississippi,
winch means the elimination of
James X. Nardaman from the
d ite d States Senate. In the
first place. Mr.. Nardaman was
an implacable foe of the Wilson
administration and Representa-
tive Pat Harrison is friend tried
and true. The administration
wins heavily on the exchange. In
the second place, 1t is vindica-
ton of the Presidents outspoken
opposition 10 Senator VarGaman,
who has fought the adminiatra-
ton on many questions of domes-
tic policy. And in the third
place, it is the first victory
against the "wilful twelve who
lilibustered against the armed
neutrality bill, a circumstance
that IS often cited as having con-
ylnced German statesman that
America was disunlted and
would not fight.
Irrespective, however, of the
Presidents own utteranCes of
the choice of a senator in Mlssis-
sippi, there are many people III
the national capital who are
pleased at Vardaman s ellmina-
ton, for by no stretch of the
Imagination can it be said that
he was a popular senator. He
was one Of the men always
ready to bring the negro ques-
ton into debate when most
people hoped it would be omit

The result of the Senatorial race is a sweeping vic
tory Pat Harrison and patriotism and 1ebukc the
patriotic and obsructonis attitude of Senator James
K Vordaman.
In the election last TUESDAY Pat Harrison was nomi-
mated United States Senator both Ills opponents
by safe majority
A few counties have sent in Official returns but
the official and incomplete eturns from the 80 counties
give Harrison 3d. 00l Nardaman Al ,545 and Noel 1884.
The linal will make comparatively little change
in these figures.
Harrison carried 81 counties. He received clear ma
jory in 50 counties and plurality in 5 Nardaman is
credited With 81 counties, in Is of which he secured
jorty and in puraIitv NoeIs home county, Holmes,
gave him small plurality.
Vardaman lost both his former home county Lefore
and his present county Kinds He did even carry his
precinct in the city of Jackson Harrison swept both
his former county Copah, and his present residence,
Harrison, by tremendous majortes
In 1912 when Nardaman defeated Senator Leroy
Percy he called upon Percy to Immediately resign and let
him have the seat From many sections Of the state the
demand is being mace upon Senator Vardaman. It
remains to be seen il he will.

With the Republicans IN commit
tees, thus baking or delaying
ad administration measures. Unlike
many senators who vote against
the administration from pure
conviction. the Mississippi sena-
tor made it his business to be
an anti, ad administration man all
along the line and was rarely
heard to say word in favor oil
the policies of the President
o.ther foreign or domestic.
Both Messrs. Noel and Harri-
son, who made the race against
Senator Vardaman were friends
Of the President. and in coming
out against Vardaman it is to
be noted that Mr., Wilson EXPRESS
ed no preference as between the
other candidates. Pat Harrison,
however, who has made an envl-
able record during his four
terms IN Congress has been of
considerable help to the Presi-
dent, III the critical moments,
when it was feared that the
House com mittee on foreign al
Ialrs would not support the
President in his demand for
report on the McLemore resolu-
ton, the measure that would
h ave surr endered American
rights on the seas to Germany,
1t was Representative Harrison
who assisted materially IN get
ting a report that was consistent
with American tradition and
honor.
GA other occasions. too, Mr.. |
Harrison has taken up the Cud-
gels against pacitist elements
seeking to obstruct army and
navy appropriations. The peo-
pie of Mississippi knew without
a word from the President that
he liked Pat Harrison. In jan
uary, 1914, 1t was Representa-
tive Harrison who brought Pres
ident Wilson to Pass Christian,
Miss, which is IN his congress
eionaI district, for vacation.
They have been close trends !
ever since.
There are indications that the
Presidents success in Misslssip-
pi viii stimulate friends of the |
administration to press hard in
Georgia for the defeat of Senator |
Ha -dWlCk and the election of |
William j. Harris, while in
South Carolina the moral effect
of the victory in neighboring
state is counted upon BY the ad-
ministrltion to help beat Cole |
Blease for the Senate.
But the defeat of Vardaman
may Eave national aspect when
some Of the other mem hers OF
the "wilful twelve" group come
up for election next fall.

Adventure

1t was word to conjure with in those
effete days before the war when roll
top desk was the nearest thing to Rolling
Down to Rio that ever happened to most
of us. There was a whole magazine
named for it. And no magazine could
live day without much of it. We spent
large slice of our lives in dreaming of
gallant, far-away voyages and huntings
and discoveries which we never, alas!
took.
Then came the war, and if it did moth
ing else it brought adventure home to
millions. Every day we see little items
that would have doomed like Xanadu in
the fat spaces of the past. Now they
scarcely make the front page on an aver
age night. Take that United States
motorboat-" motor launch No. 3,429"-
sunk in the Channel off the Belgian coast.
What vast adventures have not been
taken in chugging motor boat down
Long Island Sound or out to Block
Island, or even around Cape Cod in
wild mood-with nothing save a bit of
fog or a Southwestern to yield especial
thrills!
And here is a motorboat, a United
States motorboat, in action, 5000 miles
from home, saving an airplane and sink
ing CALAMITY in the attempt. All the
words of all the motorboatmen fail be-
fore the picture!
Adventure has been brought back from
Spain and the South Seas and hangs
humbly as an Identification disk about
the neck of each last American who goes
to fight
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1918-07-14

may be made to points on the Great
Lakes, and connections made at this city
with Atlantic coastwise lines. The Fed
eral government is behind the enterprise,
as General Wotherspoon points out, with
an appropriation of $6,ooo,oo0 thus as
surfing a high-class, trustworthy service.
Later this service is to be extended to
all points on the Barge Canal system.
Thus there will be opened for fast trans
portation the states great inland water
ways, capable of handling vast quantities
of freight, able to relieve the railroads Of
the East of a tremendous burden so that
their resources may be devoted to carry
ing the men and war materials essential
to the country's military programme.
How great the relief is, how much the
canal for which New York State has
spent millions on millions of dollars may
contribute toward winning the war, rests
with the merchants and manufacturers
Of this and neighboring states who may
be reached, directly or by connections, by
the canal. 1t should be easy for them to
arrange their affairs so as to cooperate
with the government in this respect.
