POLITICS AT HOME
New Jersey.

An interesting bit of news from
New Jersey is that James R. Nugent
has under consideration q suggestion
that he stand for the democratic nom
ination for governor.
For time Mr.. Nugent's relations
with the national administration were
strained. How much improved, if at
all, they now are is not known.
1t is clear enough that the demo
cratic nominee should be in favor at
the White House, in order that he
may enjoy the administrations full
support in the race. The state is now
in the hands Of the republicans. A
republican sits in the governors chair,
both United States senators are of that
party, and majority of the states
delegation in the House are Of the
same political persuasion.
Last year when the democrats were
casting about for a good man to stand
for senator against Gov. Edge, who
has since become senator, the name of
Mr.. Tumulty was mentioned. His in
innate relations with the President
could, it was thought, be handsomely
capitalized in the race.
Mr.. Tumulty, however, declined, He
felt he could serve his party best by
remaining at the Presidents side here
in Washington. His decision was
much applauded.
This probably explains the fact. that
Mr.. Tumulty's name has not been
mentioned in the present emergency.
There are reasons as strong now as
last year why the Presidents secre-
tary should remain at the Presidents
side. The business at the White House
is very heavy and requires the atten-
tion of trained and competent man.
And then Mr. Tumulty and his chief,
through the long service together,
have come to understand each other
thoroughly. -
Outside interest in the Jersey situa-
ton is referable to the fact, Of course,
that Jersey is the Presidents home.
He received his first political honor
there--the governorship-and he car
ried the state in his first race for the
Presidency by a large majority. ~
Since then, however, the tide has set
the other way. When he took up his
residence in Washington the charm
Mr. Wilson had exercised was broken,
and the republicans have had, and
row have, everything their own way.
They carried the state for Hughes in
1916.
= Another democratic defeat in Jersey
would be very unwelcome in admins
tration circles. 1t would be quoted
far and wide as proof that the PFesi
dents power at home is gone for good,
and that further efforts to redeem the
state are likely to be futile.

The johnson Boom.

The home supporters of Senator
johnson of California, are booming
him for President and have projected
an organization Of national scope: 1t
is reported that all the republican
politicians in the state have united for
the work.
Well, that is the way to 60 about
that sort Of thing. The presidency
does not seek men-men seek it. A
great many have sought it, unsuccess-
fully. But. except in very few cases,
successful presidential campaigns have
been carefully planned and the plans
industriously executed. -
An exception to the rule is the case
of Gen. Garfield. True, the general
had often been mentioned in connec-
ton with the White House. AS one of
his psrty's most brilliant orators in
Congress, he had come to fill a large
space in political speculation But he
had gone to the republican national
convention lin 1880 as supporter of
John Sherman, and could not have
been counting on his party's nomina-
ton on that occasion. Mr.. Sherman
proved impossible, and his friend aud
spokesman was chosen.
An exception in the matter Of a
nomination is the case of Mr.. Bryan
in his first venture. While the bril-
liant young Nebraskan had undoubt-
eddy thought Of the presidency as his
goal, he could not have been expecting
q nomination at that time. At any
rate, he had no organization, and cap
tured the conventions prize by the
simple force of his eloquence. The
organizations Of Bland and Boies and
others "faded away" before the charm
Of speech which the young orator
brought to bear on delegates who had
grown tired of balloting without a
result. The charm failed to work on
the country, but it brought large re-
nOwn to the possessor, and still makes
him q conspicuous figure in our na-
ti0nal life. ..--s.-.
Success as the result of organization
and careful planning occurred in the
cases of Mr.. Buchanan, Mr.. Lincoln,
Gen. Grant, Mr.. Cleveland. Benjamin
Harrison, Mr.. Mckinley, Mr.. Roose-
Welt, MIR. Taft, and Mr.. Wilson. They
were doomed indsutriously by their
friends, and their merits were presented
in good time for the country to take
their measure before their nomina,
tions were made. In the case Of Mr.
Wilson he was nominated and elected
Governor Of New Jersey partly on the
assertion of his friends-which proved
correct-that this governorship would
answer as a stepping stone to the
presidency.
Senator Johnson's friends have the
record to encourage them and justify
their activity. Next years republican
contest will be spirited; and while a
dark horse, as at all times, will be q
possibility, nags of different color
will lose nothing when the race is call
ed by having enjoyed thorough groom
ing and training.

HEARD and SEEN.

The Knowitall family is increasing
here.
Members Of this large and important
branch Of the human family seem TO
have decided that there is no place
in the world quite SO fine as the Ma
tional Capital. judging from the large
number of these busybody folk to be
heard in the streets, offices and other
places.
You will know a Knowitall when
ever you hear him or her. 1t will be
mild-mannered little man discussing
at great length and in a loud voice
always loud-the proper solution of the
question of world peace.
It will be very young man VINO
understands tactics. logistics and all
the other branches of the military art
from A to q, and who does not hesi-
tate to offer free advise-at several
thousand miles distance-to Gen.
Foch, Gen. Pershing ct al.
1t will be q young woman VINO IL
quite sure-in fact, doubt never enters
her head-that she is eminently quail
fed to speak-and. of course, loudly
upon all points OF domestic economy.
She gives mother and grandmother
pointers on how to cook and sew and
sweep, and knows all the best meth
DDS for taking care OF babies.
1t will be-but what is the use: All
that is possible is to mention few.
and listen to the others.
Il
man has found a new use for milk
bottles. The primary use OF a milk
bottle, of course, is to hold milk. and
after they have performed that func-
ton they should be cleaned at once
and set out on the step for the milk
man to bear away. Even the men of
the household know that.
Sometimes when Mrs. John is away
for q visit back to the old home town
the milk bottles accumulate in the
kitchen, and the milkman wonders
bottles. One day he inquiries and finds
several weeks collection reposing in
unwashed state behind the kitchen
door.
1t is not sanitary. of course. to leave
milk bottles in the great unwashed"

uating circumstances will be found. For
instance, the young man at the District
building has hit upon a happy scheme
by which an uRwashed milk bottle can
become the source Of much good.
In certain Offices reaches have a
happy home. They do not work during
daylight. but their day begins when
everybody goes home and all 10 dark
and still Then they swarm forth by
the hundreds.
Like all great discoveries. the young
inventor hit upon his scheme quite by
accident. He drank a bottle Of milk at
noon and forgot to clean the bottle.
There it sat all night, in fact. and when
he returned next day he found it full OF
reaches.
The ugly critters had cravisd down
inside the bottle after the milk and

The dirtiest child in Washington
lives somewhere in the vicinity of
the Calvert street bridge across Rock
creek. Scores of government. clerks
passed her on the way home one aft
ernoon last week, but no doubt failed
to see her, owing to the fact that she
SO blended with the street.
Stun sQualor anywhere has nothing
to offer in competition with that
child when it comes to dirt. Dirty
face. dirty hands. dirty dress. super
dirty feet combined to present an un-
usual picture in spick and-span
neighborhood.
She managed TO get SO dirty were
questions no one seemed able to an
swer. Great smudges of dirt were
on her face. Her bare feet were
miracles of dirt of the consistency of
axle grease.
There was a finely clad girl sitting
on a bench placed there for the ac-
commodation of patrons waiting for
the Chevy Chase ears. The soiled
child suddenly ran from the street
to the bench and jumped upon 1t,
thrusting a foot into the air.
1T hurts she cried. attempting TO
put the foot into the lap of the young
woman. The daintily clad woman
/ hastily jumped up to escape the foot,
and certainly no one who saw her
Il got a splinter in it, said the
child.

And the woman went and bought
the dirty child a cake of soap, placed

July. This establishment of a cargo
liner service to the Levant has been
contemplated for a long time by the
shipping board, to meet demands Of
both import and export trade. The
new service will have regular sail
ings. at least once a month to start,
and more boats will be put on as fast
