called Clifton. One of the players
looked up then and exclaimed in real
terror, "This is Iowa!"
What of it?" somebody asked.
Don't you know you can't gamble in
Iowa." he answered. "It's against the
law"
he was young man from Brooklyn,
but he had spent his boyhood in Iowa
and the state meant law and order to
him. 1t meant it so infnitely that he
seemed to conceive that the righteous
ness Of Iowa was an all-seeing eye
which could pick him out in an obser-
vation car on the Clifton siding at 5
o'clock in the morning. For the rest
of us his warning lent zest to the
game. Even the players who lost had
fun because they felt that they were
defying Iowa.
Little Pleasure From Scenery
We advise all delegates and others
about to travel to San Francisco to
provide themselves with dice or cards
or chips or some gambling parapher-
MALTA There are finer recreations, but
nothing which devours time so quickly
on railroad journey. Anybody who
thinks he can survive largely on the
scenery which he can view from q car
window is doomed to disappointment.
There are fine sights to be sure, but
railroad journey is no fit manner to
see country. You might as we'll
travel through the Louvre in a taxica5
as to spin across a landscape at fifty
miles an hour and expect to get much
from it. There are gorgeous snow
mountains in Colorado and in Nevada,
but they rise suddenly and often i'm
pulsively at the far edges of fat coun-
try and before you know your noun
tain it is gone.
There was a little ground squirrel
at Carlin, New, who interested us
more than the mountains, because we
stopped there fifteen minutes and we
had chance to eye each other. He
wasn't exactly familiar and yet we
were able to think Of him as our
ground squirrel. There never was any
such sense of possession for any of
the snow mountains. We were willing
to leave them just where they were.
Perhaps the experience was entirely
personal, but it may not be amiss to
warn delegates and others about to go
to San Francisco that it is hard to
fill fushes in Colorado, 1t may be the
one pair seemed to have no chance in
Utah That, we believe, was not a
serious observation, no more serious
than that Of the young man from
Iowa, who returned to the craps game
in Nevada, because, he said that at
last we had reached fine rolling coun-
try.
Further developments in the oliti
cal situation which we have outlined
in this article may be expected to-

Butler a Tool
To Beat Wood,
Says Anderson
Anti-Saloon League Off
cial DenOunces Educator
for Attack OH General
and Latter's Supporters
Calls His Candidacy Joke
Asserts Doctor Practiced
Subserviency to Earn
Nomination for Governor

William II. Anderson, state superin-
tendent of the Anti-Saloon League, in
an address last night scored DR..
Nicholas Murray Butler for his at
tacks on the Republicans who support
ed General Leonard Wood.
Mr. Anderson entered the lists of
the defenders of General Wood before
the congregation of the Willis Avenue
Methodist Episcopal Church at the
regular Sunday night service.
Backed by the Same Gang
"The same Old Guard gang" said
Mr.. Anderson, (Which swung New York
to Harding, in defiance of the fact that
the sentiment of the rank and file of
the Republicans in New York State
wanted General Wood, and which is
trying to cram the wet United States
Senator Wadsworth down the throats
of the moral element again, has decid-
ed upon DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler
president of Columbia, as the cand-
date for Governor to be designated at
the unofficial Republican convention in
July,
"This throws light on why DR.. But
Ter, who was a mere stalking horse
candidate at Chicago, was willing to
be used by the Old Guard to defeat
General Wood. He has been the sub
servient tool Of the Old Guard and has
been exceedingly useful to them in Civ
ing them false front of intellectu-
ality and supposed atmosphere of
the scholar in politics. Naturally,
they have to give him some considera-
tion for the part which he played in his
alleged candidacy for the Presidency,
and have doubtless flattered him into
believing that if he would serve an ap-
premiership in the Governors chair
the latest university president in the
White House.
Calls Attack Outrageous
"Of course, DR.. Buffers recent out
rageous attack upon the host of intel
ligent, conscientious Progressives who
were behind General Wood may compel
sibly some Old Guard trickster ad-
vised the doctor, whose political sa-
gacity is in inverse ratio to his will
ingness to DO anything Mr.. Barnes and
the Old Guard want, to make this at
tack on General Wood with the idea
that it would kill him off and they
would be rid of him.
"The main interest Of the Anti-Sa-
loon League in the Butler candidacy
for Governor is the fact that DR.. But
ler was up to his n~ck with the Old
Guard in the beer notification con-
spiracy. The wisdom of the league S
policy in smoking DR.. Butler out some
months ago on the beer question, even
though his candidacy for the Presi-
dency was joke, is now apparent.
DR.. Butler by his own public statement
stands committed to the proposition of
trying to change the Federal enforce
ment act in such manner as to legalize
beer, which would still be notification
of the spirit of the Eighteenth Amend
ment"

Coolidge at Williams
College Ceremonies
Ashes of Founder, Who Was
Killed by Indians in 1855,
Are Placed in Vault

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass, June 90
Governor Calvin Coolidge and repre-
sentatives of the army participated to-
day in the ceremonies attending the
placing Of the ashes Of Colonel Ephraim
Williams, founder of Williams Col
lege, in a special vault under the chan
eel of the college chapel. General Per-
shing and Rear Admiral Sims, who had
been expected to be present, were un-
able to come.
Colonel Williams was killed by In
dians at the Battle of Bloody Pond,
near French Mountain, Lake George,
n. Y, on September 8, 1855, and was
buried on the battlefield. His grave
was marked with bowlder. Nearly a
hundred years later Williams College
purchased a plot of land surrounding
the grave, inclosed it with an iron fence
and erected monument.
This spring commission represent
ing the college exhumed the remains
which were placed in a specially de-
signed urn. This urn was brought here

Mr. Roosevelt said that the "entire
system Of relationship which exists be-
tween Congress and the executive de-
partments is fundamentally wrong.
Congress, for various reasons he
said, "has so tied the hands of the
executive officers of the government
that they use no discretion IN the
fundamental questions OF employment.
| do not believe, of course. that the
civil service system should be wiped
out or that we should return to the
'spoils' system, but there is altogether
too much assumption in this govern

existing circumstances. the employees

they are"
