PALMER AND PERSHING

Two presidential candidates, one ot Fhem new in public consideration are coming into the limelight.
 One is Gen. Pershing,the other A. %Mitchell Palmer, attorney general uen Pershing is expected to make a pa for the Republication nomination, whlle, of course, MT. Palmer, if eandldate,.. will be. a oDemocratlc ehoice.
 Possible candidacy of these two is passed on the paucity of presidential Elmber in both parties. With the ex- Feptlon of President Wilson, neither party has candidate of strength to command attention of the country.
 With Gen. Pershing scheduled to arrive home about Sept. 1, whatever .here may be in his candidacy will nevelop shortly after. It is just now nndergoing the "once over" by politi- gal leaders.

, pest. but because of age, previous party affiliations and location, 1t IS not expected he will be considered seriously.
 Progressives of the type of Sena- tor Johnson and Senator Borah are discounted. while Senator Harding of Ohio is looked upon as one who might be nominated as compromise, not because of strength.
 Gen.. Leonard. Woods candidacy has slumped mysteriously, while that of Gov. Frank o. Lowdenhas come to the front. In spite of the growth ot the Lowden boom sentiment has not crvstallized about the Illinois gov ernor. and while he is possibility, he is not an overshadowing figure.
 General Pershing was seriously considered at one time then dropped Opposition developed among soldlers' especially in New England, on ac- count of the treatment of Gen. Ed wards. But as time has elapsed and the returning soldiers have gained perspective it becomes clearer that much of the unpopularity of Gen. Pershing was due to his aloofness which was necessary because of the magnitude of his task. As time goes on these soldiers are reported as coming to realize they can most honor the great events in which they were participants by honoring the man who commanded them.
 Suggestions of friction between the Wa, Department and Gen. Pershlng and between Gen. Pershing and Gen.
The Prescott daily news., 1919-08-25

March is beginning to create the inn precision that the War Department is responsible for many of the things Tor which Gen. Pershing has been criticized, and that when he returns he may speak out.
 There have been intinations that Gen. Pershing is not in sympathy with President Wilson's ideal of a league of nations. In a recent speech In London Gen. Pershing said world peace depended more on an under standing between Great Britian and the United States than anything else. The suggestion conveyed, as interpre- ted here, was that Gen. Pershing placed much more reliance upon such an understanding than he did on all ldeallstic utterances concerning league of nations.
 It is also assumed here that Gen. Pershing not only wished to convey this suggestion to the American peo- pie, but hoped to impart the same thought to those of Great Britian who have done much to destroy that un- derstanding by urging league of na- tions in which they would have six votes to America's one, and in addit- ion practically control votes of Eu- ropean and Asiatic members.
 Gen. Pershing's visit to Italy is re- garded as not without significance since persons of Italian blood in this country have been deeply stirred over Plume.
 Gen. Pershing has observed silence to degree that it is not known defi- nitely whether he is Democrat or Republican.
 In the Democratic ranks the scar- city of candidates is as pronounced as in the Republican. Should President Wilson decide to become a third term candidate he would be the nominee. it is agreed although it would create a revolt in the Democratic party. This is indicated by the attitude of such men as Senators Reed of Mis- souri, Gore of Oklahoma and Thomas of Colorado, not to mention the slumbering opposition of such men as Champ Clark of Missouri, Under wood of Alabama and the more pro- nounced hostility of political leaders in Texas like former Senator Bailey.
 The candidacy of William Gibbs McAdoo appears to have gone into the discard, because of the failure ot government operation of railroads under his administration and his con- tinued silence on the Plumb plan.

Bayard jbined Leila In the vestibule
and they went up In the elevator to-

their own apartment before she de-
manded an account of the converse
ton.
He told her In a rage and she few

The next day her fears of Wetherell

down to ask Bayard to help her trace

Daphne disapproved and felt afraid !;
but when Bayard came In unexpect-

lied inevitably and said she did not
know where she was.
She tried to be casual about II, but
Bayard caught fire at once. He was
already In a state of tindery irri-
liability. and Daphne's efforts to re-
assure him as to Leila's innocence Of
any guile only angered him the more.
He kept leaning out of the window
and staring down into the street. FL
nally, espying Leila In Wetherell's
car when 1t approached the apart
ment house, he dashed to the elevator
and met the two at the curb.
When Leila got out she was startled
to see him standing at her elbow.

than Lella's.

that the butcher had delivered the
mornings order no farther than the
freight elevator, and instructed his

the money came down.

Leila dismissed the boy with a
faint-hearted show Of indignation.
Then she came back and said, "And
now we have no meat to eat"
Bayard was reduced to philosophy,
the last resort of the desperate !:
swell, the vegetarIans say we ought
never to eat meat, anyway. We're
poor, but, my Lord! we're In grand
company. look at this cartoon Of

"She is my brothers wife," said
Daphne.
"Oh, you don't tell mel" Wetherell
gulped, and his abrupt silence was full
Of startling implications that alarmed
Daphne, angered Duane, and threw
Wetherell into confusion.
Duane helped Daphne to alight from
the derelict and transferred her to
the other car, where Wetherell intro
duced them to mass Of shadow
whose name, "Mrs. Bethany" meant
nothing to Daphne and everything to
Duane.
Duane arranged to have a wrecking
crew sent out to his roadster, and
chartered touring car and chauf-
feur for the trip into New York.
He sat back with Daphne and MUIR
INJURED prayers for forgiveness be-
cause of the dangers he had carried
her into and for the things he had
said. Daphne's nerves had been
overworked. She had been rushed
from adventure to adventure Of soul
and body. She had been invited to
enter career of gorgeous sin, and
she had been swept along the edge OF
a fearful disaster.
Mrs. Chivvis met Daphne at the
door. Her recent affection had turned
again to scorn, and she glowered at
who crept to her room in
hopeless acceptance of the role Of adj
ventures.
Tired as she was she could not
sleep. The clangor of the morning
called her to the window. A gray day
broke on a weary town. The prob
lem of debt and food and new clothes
dawned again. Everything was gray
before her.
Wisdom whispered her to take |
Duane at his word and try the great |
adventure. How could it bring her
