STILL ANYHopY.s RACE.

-It Is quite natural that candidates -ahould claim advantages from the results Of the primaries as they are held even l, though such cannot be observed by the cnlooksrs. There arc unquestionably lo- cal conditions. fights among state fae- lions which have much to do with the n1tcone even though such expressions afe not fair test of the sentiment rel ative to the candidates themselves. Cam didates are often times judged by their managers and win or lose accordingly and there are probably but few states -whers this does not play a par. to a greater or less degree. Thus what a candidate sees in the result may be dif- lsrent from the surface indication as Eained from the cold figures of the re- suits.
 Tn Ohio the victory of Senator Hard fng Is not all that he could have asked tor. He was amongst his own people where it was to be expected he would Ket strong support if anywhere and yet Ihe result where it shows in his favor is by a smaller margin than one might have expected or desired. He doesn't get united delegation even as favorite son That General Wood made such 9 Rhcwfng under the conditions cannot help feactfng to his credit even though that doesn't amount to getting the states deieEation.
 Wood sentiment Is apparently strong in the Massachusetts delegation, though Governor Coolidge will get it's first vote Massachusetts with these men is bound te look upon both as favorite sons
 AS for Johnson he gets little encour- -egement out of Ohio. some discourage -nent from Idaho in the split delegation and from the close fight in New Jersey gets about the. same encouragement a, Wood does out of Ohio. for though he gets some of the delegates tho preferenct was against him in what is thus far the real primary battle.
 The contest is thus warming up per. .eeptibly. Hardins's outlook can be sized up better after the Indiana primary whne the actions of the next week will probably help to clear up the race fol the nomination in Chicago. Thus far i seems to be anybody's race.

coop IDEA FOR ALI.

In keeping with practices which have been carried out at tkis season of the year reports are coming from Europe to the effect that agitatiens are underway fer big demonstrations on the part of radicals and the lawless on May day. This is for the purpose of impressing the countries with the power and strength oi such elements and they are invariably accompanied by more or less trouhla a serious nature It is a time when the anarchist seems to think he Is called up- on to display his cunning and his de- structive ability, There are times when the demonstrations are much more se- we're than at others. when they cover a wider territory and when the numbers involved are influenced by prevailing con- ditions.
 But quite in contrast with the trouble those back of such an effort are trying ts stir up Is the policy advocated by the governor of Ka 1sas in urging the ob. servaneA of May frst as American day Governor Allen fully appreciates the fac that there are those who are working tt establish here the policy long followed in Europe, that it comes from the radica alien element and that it Is time to star real backfire to check its progress. | In announcing his plan which goes in | to effect in Kansas tomorrow for tn holding of large parades in behalf o | Americanism, Governor Allen well say ''The question whether the Americal spirit and our historical institutions shal | predominate is as vital today as was tn subject of preparedness four years age when the preparedness parades reveale wholesome public sentiment at tha time"
 American day is advocated to brin eut the American spirit and not keep slumbering while that which is fighting is active. That he believes his conf dehee in the result will be sustained evidenced when he says: T have sr pfeme faith in this country and il people. The heart of our people beat passionately for the integrity of Amer can ideals and for our constitution an the institutions bequeathed by it to U This eay appropriately observed. wi give concrete expre ssions of the emotier and convictions of our people. that Ame

FROM LUCILLE'S DIARY

I used to think how much better it would have been if she would take little
 pleasure now and then to freshen herself
 up a bit, so she would be more bright
 and entertaining
 She handed me her watch and thank ed her warmly and took it to my own room. There was good fire burning on the hearth and it was so inviting | that I could not go straight to bed. l sat down with novel had taken from the library and laid the watch gently l on the coal scuttle beside me, because l did not wish to read too late. It was such a luxury to have the coal that one of the officers had sent me that l stay cd up late to enjoy my fire.
 1 The next morning when l awake went to look at the watch by my flash light and it was not und q my pillow where I expected to find it. 1 tried to remember about it and then with sud- den gasp of disnay I had mental pie 1 ture of it lying on the top of the coal in the scuttle. I jumped out of bed and
 rushed to the fireplace.

 Why, yes Lucile." he replied solwly. If you choose something reasonable. Don't set he back too far, my dear. What do you want?
 "A watch, daddy"
 What's the matter with the wrist watch bought for you to take to France? That hasn't got out of date already, has it?''
 'sNo indeed, but I no longer have it. I gave 1t to a girl who lost hers through an accident. I felt so sorry for her simply had to give her mine"
 "Very noble of you. Lueile.s He tried to be sarcastic, but could see that he was touched by my generosity. eWhat kind of watch do you wish?"
 "One of those fascinating little ones to wear on a slender chain around by neck. wish could have one with tiny diamonds set in platinum around "A mere bagatelle."

 that the American pig is rapidly eap-

A further statement by the Bank, covering the world activities of the American COW, shows that nearly billion pounds of condensed milk were sent out of the United States in 1919 at an export value of about $125, ,000. and that it was distributed to no less than 90 countries, colonies, and islands of the world.

According to statement which he has made to the Providence Journal, inspired by the comment of that paper, Herbert c. Hoover has seen the necessity of hay ing 1t clearly understood that he is not the pawn of President Wilson, that his candidacy is not promoted by him that it is not understood that he is to be the heir of the Wilson policies and that he is in fact not in sympathy with the po- litical. economic, industrial and interna- tional policies of the president.
 Heretofore of course MT. Hoover has seen the necessity of urging the support of the stand taken by President Wilson that 9 democratic congress should be elected for the best interests of the ceun. try, and partially on that ground was ht regarded as a heir to the presidents pol icies, but 1t is also to be remembered that he has expressed disapproval of his trea ty stand and that it has been explained that what seemed like the political as sistanoe given the president was only loyalty to his chief during an emergency Mir. Hoover today apparently sees ths necessity of clearing his skirts of any possible entanglements with the presen administration. According to his state ments he has convinced the Journal tha it's assumptions were not correct, al though it must be admitted that durini the early days when his name was beinl mentioned for the presidency the atti ! tude taken by MT.

The phe- nomenal growth in exportation of this class of merchandise is apparently due in some degree to the taste which Europe acquired for American con- densed milk during the war, for the quantity sent to Europe has advanced from s,362 pounds in 1914 to s9, 9,541, ,000 in 1916; 3s4,5ss, 900 in the fiscal year 1918, and eysr eoe.ppe.oo0 pounds in the calendar year 1913.
