BALTIMORE, Md. May 15.-United
States Senator Joseph Irwin France
has given the political pot in Mary
land ono grand, big stir by announc-
Ing himself as republican candidate
for tho presidency. Even though he
Etates he only wishes to be considered
asacompromise candidate. politicians
cannot understand why he waited so
long to let it be known he is in a re-
ceptiye mood. They have been busy in
quirfng ever since how long the presi-
DENTAL bee has been buzzing around
the ears OF the Maryland senator.
While every one is busy inquiring
the reasons for Senator Frances be-
lated announcement. none of the
state republican organization leaders
will make any comment concerning
his action. o. E Weller. the big leader
of the G. o. p. forces, refuses to make
any statement wha tsoever. and Lieut..
Col. John Philip Hill. a stanch sup
porter of Maj. Gen. Wood, has stated
it would not be timely for him to
make any comment

James A. Gary, jr.. until Thursday
chairman OF the republican city dele

discuss Senator Frances candidacy.

he said.
Senator Frances announcement that
he will open campaign headquarters
caused establishment Politicians can
not understand why he did not ar
range for this before most of the dele
gates to the Chicago convention had
been named. However. the senator did
not spring the 'favorite son" racket,
otherwise he might have come out
weeks ago, and in all probability he
could have headed of Gen. Wood and
all other competitors in Maryland.
In his formal announcement Senator
France said he does not intend to
make a scramble for delegates. but

ALBANY, n. Y. May l5.-New York
state q. q. +. leaders are distinctly
alarmed as a result of the showing of
Hiram johnson as 4 presidential
ing some definite plan for the ahso-
lutte elimination of the Californian.
The stanch republican chieftains of
this state are irrevocably opposed to
johnson and positively will not con-
slider him for any place upon the ma
tional ticket. even refusing to con-
slider him for the vice presidency.
This bitter opposition to johnson is
statewide. and is traceable directly to
the Campaign of 1911. when the Cali
1ornIa senator was found closely al
lied with Col. Roosevelt. The old
guard OF this state never made peace
with Col. Roosevelt or any of his
friends or supporters.
II the New York state delegates can
go 10 Chicago with Il plan for the
absolute elimination of Hiram John
son as a presidential candidate the
ambitions of the New YORK leaders
VIII have been realized. AT this time
they are particularly desperate. Sew
eral conferences have taken place in
New York and in this city, at which
Johnson has been virtually the only
subject of discussion. Many plans
nave been suggested and some have
been seriously considered. but up to
!his time no solution of the problem
mas presented itself. "If we can score
a knockout on Johnson we will be
satlsned, was the expression of an
upstate leader during the past week
IN reply to question as to what the
New York delegates expected to do at
the national gathering.
Advocate Use Of steam Roller.
Many of the old guard veterans are
ADVOCATING the use of the steam roller
on johnson at Chicago, insisting it is
the practical and only positive meth
od OF eliminating him. Johnson's
IDEAS and policies, branded as ex-
tremely radical by New York state
republlcans, are the exact opposite
OF those of the local leaders. They do
not approve of a single thing he has
done or a single issue he has raised,
principally because of the fact that
they are Johnson ideas"
"A greater warmth in New York
state FEELING toward Leonard Wood
was noticeable during the past week,
but he is still far short of being the
candidate the G. o. P. leaders want.
he, like johnson. was too friendly
WIN Col Roosevelt to please New
forkers. and in this state the feeling
toward Roosevelt was more pro-
nounced than in any other state of the
Union. Gov. Lowden of Illinois seems
to be making greater Roadway in
New York state than any of the can
dldates. While he does not suit ex-
actly. William Barnes is declared to

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-If You Know Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to feel young-to do this you must watch your liver and bowels-there's no need of having sallow cornplexion-darkr rings under: your eyes-pimples-a bilious look in your face-dulI eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from inactive bowels and liver.
 Dr. Edwards, well-known physician Tn Ohio, perfected vegetable com pound mixed with olive oil to act on the liver and bowels, which he gave to his patients for years
 Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub stitute for calomel, are gentle in their action yet always effective. They bring about that natural buoyancy which all should enjoy by toning up the liver and clearing the system of impurities.
 Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets are known by their olive color. 1oc and 25c.

TREES CRITICISM.

The late Sir Herbert Tree was per shaded last winter, in New York, to attend a matinee given by a trage- dian of the old. super-demonstrative school.
 The tragedian distinguished him self under Trees observant eye. He roared, then gnashed his teeth, he tore about the stage like a wild Prussian when the bread ration is re- duced.
 Between the acts, Sir Heroer' visited him. He lay back in an arm chair in a profuse precipitation. He looked up anxiously from the towel with which he was drying himself he looked up hoping for a word o1 praise; but Tree only said, in his most 1ippant and airy tones:
