sP,ons TIE Trib~ms's Washington Bmyeau
sWASHINGToN, Feb. 1o--Major Cen
eyal Leonard Wood has decided def
nsseiy not to resign from the army, it
SAs learned here to-day. He has
written letter to friend in the ma
hsnai capital authorizing him to deny
~ reports to the effect that wood is
Quitting the army SOON"
Some OF General Woods supporters
have been at him for the last six weeks
to get out of the army so he could
make more effective campaign. They
trted to convince him that with his
uniform off the fact that he Is a soldier
would soon be lost sight of and that
subsequently he would not be so liable
= the criticism that his election would
mSan reign of militarism in this
country.
with his uniform on, some OF Woods
trends argued, he would be estopped
from, criticizing the Democratic Admin Admin
istxation because President Wilson is
ms commander in chief. These ad-
vissTs seemed to think the general
snGMld devote himself to attacking what
has been done rather than to suggest
ing cures for the ills brought on by
. the war and Democratic inefficiency.
apparently General Wood has dis
sarded this advice as unsound. 1t is
kncwn that he holds the opinion that
tho Republican nomination and then
thes election cannot be won merely by
scotdlng and condemning Woodrow
Wilson. His friends here say his idea
IS TO deal with the problems of the
present and future, and not devote his
time to talking about the mistakes of
thepast.
About the time it was reported that
General Wood intended to quit the
army Newton D. Baker, Secretary of
War, said the department would not
object in the least to the general
,naKing his, campaign without resign
lng. There is>nothing in the regula
tions, Mr.. Baker explained, to prevent
an army officer in time of peace run
ming for Office.
Friends Of Wood in Washington are
glad he has decided to remain in the
army. They believe his uniform will
help him moIe than it will hurt him.
pointed out, he would be left in the
position of being only a candidate for
office. The army is his vocation.
General Wopd is poor man. His
ncome is his army salary. If he
should quit the army and be defeated
politically his source of income would
De gone. A de feated candidate for
office is not mu ch of a qualification
10 present when one goes job hunting
in the business world after passing
the age of sixty. IN few years, should
General Wood fam to- get the nomina-
ton, he will reach the age of retire
ment from the army and will be eligible
20 retirement pay.
The action of the Democratic House
caucus in turning down universal train
ing is likely to hurt General Woods
chances, it is thought here He is the
original exponent Of universal training,
and quite naturally those who oppose
such system will Nook upon Wood as
IN undesirable candidate for President
Several other candidates in both
parties, however, have also declared for
universal training.

Jersey Governor Takes
Nation Vide Aspect

When Governor Edward I. Edwards
of New Jersey said last week at the
testimonial dinner for Homer s. Cum
mings, chairman Of the Democratic
National Committee, that he would take
his fight for "wet" platform to the
San Francisco convention he uttered
no idle threat
The wet" interests are organizing for
him with celebrity. 1t is expected that
before the end of the week organizations
will be formed in his interest in half a
dozen states in addition to New Jersey,
Nebraska and Illinois, where his friends
already have things under way.
In New Jersey this week the Gov
ernor's friends laid plans to deliver all
the national convention delegates to
him, whether President Wilson is
candidate for denomination or not.
The same men, in a large measure,
who brought about the nomination of
Woodrow Wilson for Governor of New
Jersey in 1910 now are working in the
open for Edwards in Hudson County. in
Newark, Camden and in other parts of
Ihe state, with the avoWed object of
Sewing up" the delegates against other
President Wilson, Attorney General
Palmer, backed by Joseph P. Tumulty,
or, in fact, any one.
The plan of the Edwards boomers is
to make clean cut "wet" and dry"
fight Of it in the country this year, the
Democrats taking the "wet" end, with
out regard to William J. Bryan, who
says that Governor Edwards and Gov
ernor Smith are trying to bury the
Democratic party in the grave with the
outlawed saloon.
The aggressive move of the Edwards
men is regardd as hostile to the politi
cal interests Of Joseph P. Tumulty, who
brought out Governor Edwards and
gave him the winning issue last fall
but who is supposed to be tied up with
the Palmer boom. The slogan Of the
Edwa rds men is Edwards has redeemed

You were thrilled-yes words fail
to express the effect Vitagraph's "The
Vengeance of Durand" had upon you.
To say you enjoyed it only mildly ex-
presses the verdict of a capacity
house that witnessed a showing of
this superfeature at the Globe last
night. Rex Beach always had a
faculty of gripping people with his
stories and every lover of fiction is
familiar with George Randolph
Chester's mastery style. A story
written by Rex Beach and adapted to
the screen by George Randolph
Chester is one that cannot be beaten.
Add to this Alice Joyce's fascinating
personality and unusual dramatic
ability and the result is inexpressiblc.
"The Vengeance of Durand' is play
