Richard j. Hopkins. attorney gen.

For several months Hopkins has
been listed as a sort of residuary leg
atee for the governorship by virtue of
the ambition of a Kansas City, Mo-.
newspaper to select public officials
for Kansas state offices. In short
there has been a feeling that the Mis-
souri, side plan was to elevate Hopkins
to the governorship of Kansas when
Governor Allen retired or went on the
national ticket. Hopkinss statement
today indicates that all such plans
have been side-tracked-at least SO

remember they were not afraid.
They are in there for us.

leadership of the proletarian world revolu-
tion.

NEW YORK GETS ACQUAINTED

New York recently observed "Neighbor's
Day"-three of them in fact, for June IL, Ii
and IA were set apart by mayors proclama-
ton as "Neghbor's Day." Community Day"
and Flag Day." Old Father Knickerbocker
got down off his high horse and went to see
who was living around the corner and on the
third floor front and said Good morning
neighbor" and Flows the missus" and "How's
Sallie's whoopin cough and Johnnie's measles"
At any rate that's what New Workers should
have said upon an occasion of that kind if they
really wanted to be neighborly like the people
at Painted Post and Pumpkinville. That is
the sort of spirit that is supposed to be foster
ed by Neighbor's day and any one who has ever
sojourned in Manhattan will rise to say that it
would do the people there good to get acquaint-
ed with each other
The idea Of Neighbors day originated with
Franklin K. Lane, who suggested it while ne
was secretary of the interior as way of COM
batting the spirit of unrest through the coun-
try. 1t was not, however, generally Observed
more's the pity. The idea is one which could
be adopted with advantage and benefit by every
community.
In the rural regions of America where people
learn to know one anOtner, the nlgneSC cOHlpll-
ment that can be paid to a man or woman or
family is to say that they are good neigh
bors." Those words in the country mean that
a man is the sort who will get out of bed in
the middle Of the night to ride 20 miles for the
doctor who is needed at farm house mile
down the road.
The spirit is all too scarce in the cities of
the country. If man with rheumatism were
to hobble along Broadway on crutches and fall
down, he would be stepped on thousand times
before he could get up and when he did man.
age it his crutches would have been stolen.
That's not what you could call neighborly but
it is to be expected from people who get the
habit of tipping the waiter dollar and then
on the corner wait for their three cents change
when buying paper from newsboy.

MANY POLITICAL PARTIES

Since the Republican party came into being,
sixty-four years ago, fourteen attempts have
been made to found other new parties and none
of them has elected president, says the Spokes-
man-Revew. The closest approach was by the
Progressive party in 1912, when Roosevelt re-
ceived 4,119,507 votes. The next considerable
splash was made by the Populists in 1892 when
James B. Weaver polled LOAF, ,028 votes.
In 1872 split in the Republican party led to
the nomination Of Horace Greeley by the Liberal
Republicans" and the Democratic party but
Grant was reelected by ma jority of more than
100000.
Four years later, in 1876, the Greenback party
was organized and ran Peter Cooper for presi-
dent 1t was the predecessor of the Populists
movement. 1t ran Weaver in 1880 and Ben But
Ter in 1884; slumbered in 1888 and came to life
again in 1892 as the Peoples party, with Weaver
as it's nominee for president.
The prohibition party came into the field in
1876 casting 1922 votes for Green Clay Smith,
of Kentucky. 1t has had presidential candi-
date in every contest since then.
The Socialist party also has been frequent
contender, and at one time and another we have
had Socialist labor nominees, Social Democratic
candidates, American party candidates, union
labor, united labor, gold Democrat and indepen-
dent candidates. And the result has been the
same in every instance-defeat and the election
of Republican or Democratic President

HITCHCOCK REFUSES TO
CONSIDER SECOND PLACE

Washington, June Ex-senator Hitch
cock of Nebraska announced today he
would not accept he Democratic vice
presidential nomination.
Senator Hitchcock's announcement
was made in telegram to Arthur +.
Mullen. q member of the Democratic ma
tional committee from Nebraska, answer
ing letter in which Mr. Mullen said
the senator was being prominently men
toned for the vice presidency.
i am not candidate for vice presi-
dent and would not accept the nomina-
ton for second place" the telegram
said
The Democratic platform will not
contain either wet or dry plank, in
the opinion of Senator Hitchcock, but
he expressed the conviction that it will
include strong league of nations plank.
II cannot conceive that the Demo
cratic party will place a plank in the
platform declaring for or against pro-
hibition" he said Prohibition is not
properly an issue between Democrats
If dry plank were inserted it would
mean the reading out of the party of
those Democrats who had not favored
prohibition. If wet plank were adopt
ed it would mean that the men who be-
lieve in prohibition must be outside the
party"

dicate the Administrations attitude, IL
was suggested. much depends on the
course William j. Bryan plans to fol.
low on his arrival Friday. He is cred
tied with having determined to carry
the war into the enemy's country in
meeting the "wet" drive at the plat
form which began more than week
ago, and offer an emphatic bone dry
declaration on his own account.
The movement for platform silence on
the enforcement measure is said to
have sprung in part from consideration
of this report as to the Nebraskan's
plans.
At least some of its advocates are
said to desire to head off a vote on
such matters.
There was increasing activity today
among workers for various presidential
candidates. The lerge delegations will
arrive within the next two days and
preparations for missionary work among
the members were in progress.
Various combinations for the ticket
we're being talked over with view to
secure this or that aspirant votes to be
brought to his standard through arrang-
ing a prearranged agreement as to the
vice presidency. None of these tentative
tickets appeared, however, to have
more behind it than the speculation OF
campaign managers.

WHERE is HEARST?

William Randolph Hearst damned the Republi-
can convention after it was all over and he's
damning the Democratic convention before it
starts He says that the Republican party has
no use for any progressive except dead pro-
gressive; that it considers dead progressive an
asset and live progressive liability" The
dead progressive" he refers to is Roosevelt, to
whose memory the Republican convention paid
a tribute. When he says Give progressive" he
means Senator Hiram Johnson of California. To
a man up tree it would seem that when he says
the Republicans consider Johnson liability, he's
right-and they're right. Hearst is marking
time on the third party question however. Evil
IDENTIFY none of those already in embryo suit him.
He wants one made to order, evidently having
in view, himself.

ROOM FOR EXCITEMENT

If there are any more interested in the do
ings of the Democratic convention at San
Francisco than the Democrats of the country
it is the Republicans. 1t is variousy predicted
in the Republican press of the nation that Nc
Adoo is making dark horse" of himself and
that he already has the nomination lashed to
the mast; that President Wilson is carefully
nursing third term boom which he proposes
to unloose upon the gathering at the psycholo-
gical moment; that Bryan will name the nomi-
nee on "dry" plank; that Cox will be the nomi-
nee on the wet" plank; that Edwards will be
the nominee on wet plank, and other things
too numerous to mention.
AS matter of fact there is room for plenty
of thrills in the San Francisco convention
The Republicans approached their convention
in Chicago with some trepidation because
they said, it was Embossed" The result how
ever, has given rise to difference of opinion
about that The bosses seemed well pleas
ed with what happened eventually, and the de-
legates didn't really know what had happened
until it was all over
The big fight at San Francisco promises to
be over the prohibition issue. Mr.. Bryan wants
an out and out declaration for enforcement
laws which will make the eighteenth amend
ment effective and he has opposition, all right
Homer S. Cummings, chairman of the Demo-
cratic national committee, predicts that the
prohibition issue will be fought out on the floor
of the convention, in which case there will be
some oratory spilled which will be distinctly
worth while.
Whatever is done will be done with bang.
One of the beauties of national convention is
that nobody knows what's going to happen
next. Just when the canvas is all trimmed for
smooth sailing the storm usually begins. The
Democrats have had some uproarious times at
past conventions and out of the Baltimore row
came glorious victory whichfis more than the
Republicans can say of the inhafmonious ga

MAKING RAIN

Over in the state of Washington few days
ago, commercial club and the farmers in It's
territory paid California "rainmaker" 81, 900
an inch for bringing rain in an area 100 miles
wide which it was stated had been threatened by
drOuth The ''rainmaker" said he could DO 1t
in about ten days. 1t rained on the eleventh.
In the meantime Mr.. Rainmaker saturated
the atmosphere with quickly evaporating chemi-
calls and at the proper time shot off few
bombs. Happily J. Pluvius uncorked his vials
about that time and everybody got a good wet
ting, the drouth was broken and the country
was saved. The rainmakers have been doing
a land office business in sections of California
this year, selling precipitation by the inch. In
the San Joaquin valley rainmaker was paid
for all precipitation recorded at a certain
town in March and up to April 10. In years
past San Joaquin valley has had the reputa-
tion of receiving considerable rain and this
year it received more than ordinary so pre-
sumably the rainmaker's contract proved
profitable one.
Rainmakers were once upon time very num-
erous in Kansas. Before that their operations
may be traced back to time immemorial. They
have brought it by incantations, by pounding
mysterious potions resembling witches brew
In Kansas they learned by experience that
there was no use in praying for rain when the
wind was in the southwest. The successful
rainmakers are no doubt successful because
they select favorable occasions for making
rain.
The modern rainmaker bases his claim on
science and the use of chemical combinations
or explosions in the air, or both. But their
claims discredited by the weather bureau
which tells us that rains and storms of all kind,
for that matter are the result of atmospheric
conditions which extend over thousands of
miles. It is stated that the great eddies of air
causing conditions which result in drouth are
so immense and so powerful that the puny eff
forts a man might make to change them
would be lost in the forces of nature.
Of course, in any country which normally has
rain, dry spell must have an ending. A pro-
longed drouth which makes people so desperate
they will employ rainmaker, may well have
run it's course and be due for break about
the time the "rainmaker" arrives on the job.
But as to any effect that the "rainmakers" may
have upon the weather of any community it is
much the same as the influence of the cocks
crow upon sunrise 1t merely happens that
it rains, just as it happens that the rooster
crows and then the sun comes up.
