AS THE COUNTRY'S COMING SAVIOR

Chicago. May 30.-Chairman viii FL.
Hays of the Republican national com
mittee in statement issued after his
arrival here today. said:
Everywhere Republicans are 'rearin'
to go. The unprecedented confidence in
Republican success which obtains every
where is simply the reflection of the
realization of the necessity for such sue
cess as a matter of national welfare.
Everywhere is the appreciation of the
fact that we have a task to perform
worthy of our party strength and party
history. that we have a patriotic work
to do that is epoch making and that
upon our performance will largely
depend the future of the country.
'srhe chronicle of centuries to come
will look backward at these now ap-
preaching years as of the most tremend-
GUS epoch in the development of Am
erican policy-and it is the Republican
party that is to direct that development.
Nothing shall lessen the certainty of
this Republican success. Nothing shail
decrease the certainty ofeour doing well

Making Inquiry Into California Expenditures

Soldier Bonus Bill
Now Seems Doomed
to Long Interment

Washington, May 30.-The soldier
bonus bill, passed Saturday by the
house, 289 to 80, will be received
Monday by the senate. The measure
will follow the regular course and be
referred to a committee.
Inasmuch as recess, and possibly
adjournment, will be taken by cor
gress on Saturday until after the
political conventions, the bonus bill
seems doomed to a long sleep in
senate committee. II recess is taken,
leaders do not contemplate reconven-
ing until about September |. Some
senators are frank in saying that the
bill will never get any further, and
that Mondays reference to COM
mittee will in fact be an "interment".
Opposition to soldier relief has been
more pronounced in the senate than
in the house where Saturdays vote
showed only 40 Republicans and so
Democrats recorded against the meas
ure. Tax provisions of the bill are
considered particularly odious by a
number of members of the senate.
