the gentleman from Pennsylvania on

President Frederick J. Rice and fellow
citizens applauded the statement with

sat up and took notice.
Seeing gentlemen smacking their hands
together in peculiar fashion, and hear

said smacking, Rollo voiced his opinion.

POLITICS AT HOME
Maine.


Maine is an early bird. The repub-
icans have just met In convention and
adopted platform. The state primary
will take place in June. The election
will follow in September. A full state
ticket, a legislature, United States
senatorship, and the four seats in the
House to which the state is entitled,
will be in the scale. The stake is worthy
the best efforts of both parties, and We
may expect both to contend for Il in q
way worthy Of it.
Home talent will be reinforced by i'm
portations. Visiting statesmen will ap-
pear in the campaign. Both sides Of oil
questions will be presented. In this
way national attention will be drawn to
the contest, and pointers obtained for
use in campaigns elsewhere to be fought
out later.
But the home talent will do much.
The new leaders have been trained in
a good school. The old leaders set a
strong pace and established a high
standard. The republicans, usually in
the majority and in control. produced a
number of men who for many years en-
joyed distinguished national regulations.
But the democrats, with less encourage
ment, produced able men, too, and oc-
casionally secured recognition Of them.
Normally, the state is republican. It
is now under complete republican con-
troll, obtained largely on domestic issues.
It supported Hughes in 1916, although at
one time the democrats had hopes Of
carrying It through the republican di-
visions. Bull moosery had come to cut
something Of figure in Pine Tree poll
tics.
But there, a. elsewhere, bull moosery
is now negligible quantity. Mr.. Roose-
velt at the republican convention as the
star speaker attested q reunion Of the
factions, and his remarks were in the re-
union key.
The var is not an issue. Both par
ties are supporting the hostiHties, and
pledging a continuation Of the policy to
the end.
But the conduct Of the war is Ger
tain to be discussed. Mr.. Roosevelt led
the way the other day. OF course, the
measure and character of the discussion
viii depend upon the wars develop
ments. If all goes well, praise will be
bestowed. If much goes i'll, blame will
be administered.
The discussion, however, could not
take the form of mere fault-fuding
without injury to the fault-fnders. A
good reason must be given and sustain
ed if criticism is to be effective. Gen
eral attention is fixed upon the war
now, and the public is better prepared
and disposed than formerly to appre-
ciate and appraise observations on the
subject.

New Jersey.

a IumOI Oh no Smull interest III con-
nection with New Jersey politics is that
former Senator MARITIME may enter the
senatorial primary; that his one term
in the Senate gave him q taste for serv-
ice in that body, and that he has in
mind asking a return at the hands OF
the jersey democracy.
If Mr.. MARITIME announces he will hard.
" be considered the administration
candidate. Although elected senator
largely through the favor of Mr.. Wilson,
then Governor of New Jersey, he did
not as senator altogether agree with the
policies of Mr.. Wilson as declared by the
latter after he had become President.
There was no open rupture, but the team
work which had marked their relations
at home did not show after the two
men had transferred their activities to
Washington.
Neither will Mr.. MARITIME be considered
the state organizations candidate. 1t is
said he is not in favor with the machine.
Nevertheless, Mr.. Marines entrance, if
made, should add to the whir and stir Of
the campaign. He is man of eloquence
and action. He knows the field thor
oughH. He has canvassed the state
otter in behalf OF other men. He is per-
sonally popular. He is a trained and ef-
fective stumper. He likes the employ
ment, and can afford it. In the political
world he is rated as in his prime.
As yet nothing has been said about
James Smith, jr. If he also is meditat-
ing a race for the Senate it is his secret
He tried hard for election when Mr..
MARITIME won. He had had one term in
the Senate, had liked the place, and
wanted to return. But Gov. Wilson OBJ
jecteG. Since then Mr.. Smith has devot-
ed himself to business, leaving politics
to others.
The democratic situation in New Jersey
is the more difficult by reason of the
refusal of Secretary Tumulty to permit
the use of his name in connection with
the Hughes vacancy. The party's nomina-
ton, it is thought, would have gone to
him by general consent. But, in the cir
cumstanees, he expressed preference
for his present Office, where he is very
useful to the President, and to whose
fortunes he is devoted.
It is going to be a very lively affair
of the kind. both in the primary, and
later. It will be staged in the Presidents
home state; and to degree his inter-
ests will be involved. The third-term
boom will not be assisted if the repub-
licans this year again show superiority
in q trial of strength where the Presi-
dent, according to the game, should be
strong.
