NEW YORK, October 80"
There ara eight candidates for the
office of Justice of the Supreme Court
in the First judicial district, which
includes the counties of New York
and The Bronx. Their names read
down the ballot and no one candidate
Is officially running against another.
Two Justices are to be chosen. OF the
eight nominees we may discard those
of the Socialist and Prohibition parties
as negligible. Four remain:
PHILIP ]. McCooK, a Republican
candidate of the Republican party.
JOSEPH E. NEwBURaER, a Democrat
candidate Of the Republican party and
the judiciary party.
RoBEBT L. LUCE, Democrat, can.
didate of Tammany Hall.
IRWIN UNTERMYER, Democrat
candidate Of Tammany Hall.
AS only two Justices are to be
chosen not more than two of the eight
candidates may be voted for by the
elector without multiplying that section
of his ballot.
To mark a ballot with crosses op
posite the names Of McCooK and
NEwBURGER Is naturally to vote
against LUCE and UNTERMYER-anC
also against the Socialist and Prohibi
ton candidates.
To the new voter 1t may seem curl
Gus that only one candidate is of the
Republican faith, although two have
Republican nominations. This situa
ton came about because the leader
of Tammany Hall violated the I'm
written law of judiciary nomination,
by refusing to renominate Justic,
NEwBURGER, who thereupon was takel
by the Republican party as running
mate for Major McCooK, lawyer ant
soldier too.

matter be taken up Immediately. The
British note does not commit the gov

Diplomatists here are inclined to
view the inactivity during the last few
days of Gabrielle d dAnnunzo, the in
surgent Italian commander at Fiume,
as a hopeful sign, although there is
no disposition to assume that he has
abandoned his plan for the annexa-

1t is believed that the fact that the
Italian elections were unfavorable to
his project may have influenced him
to pause and consider the probability
of success.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. 28.-Maior
General Leonard Wood, speaking ut the
City Club this afternoon, made force
full plea for Americanism, urging the
deportation of the alien agitators who,
he said, are causing most of the do
mestic uneasiness.
"Deport these so-called Americans
who preach treason openly" General
Wood demanded. Call halt to trea-
son masquerading under free speech"
The general declared for settlement
Of the strife between capital and labor.

said. Public opinion rules coun-
try. A strike is blow at the public,
but labor must be insured square
deal We must establish cooperation
between capital and labor. We must
rid labor of reasonable leaders bv
deporting them, and it is equally i'm
perative that we remove the condition
around labor which gives rise to lust
complaint"
Referring to immigration, the gen
eral declared this nation had not been
careful enough in examining the men
tality of its immigrants.
Efforts of the crowd to get an ex-
preston concerning his possible can
didacy for the Pres idential nomination
brought only a smile from the general.

"Now that wars are over-unless we
lose more consuls," General Wood
said, "our problems are those of read
justment. The millions of service men
