THE CHICAGO CONVENTION

1t is not too late yet to make
guess. upon the Republican nom-
inee for president, but it soon
will be and people who wish to be
able to say, 81 told you so," should
get busy and solve the riddle now.
There is only one point upon
which it seems safe to venture a
prediction on the eve of the con-
vention, and that is that the re-
dictionaries will control the con-
vention.
The big interests have made a
show by putting up large cam
paign fund, of being favorable to
Gen. Wood. If Wood is their
choice they will have no trouble
in nominating him, but it seems
very doubtful whether he is their
choice. The big interests are not
in the habit of showing their hand
so early in the game. They do
not as a rule advertise their cam
paign gifts. In these matters
they usually follow the scriptural
injunction, Let not thy right
hand know what your left hand
doeth." In the first place if they
should let it be known that they
had particular candidate it
would cost too much money to
get him nominated and it would
be much harder afterwards to ell
ect him.
Our big captains of industry
were not born yesterday. Neither
are they tyros in the gentle art of
politics and while they may not
be as harmless as doves, they are
as wise as serpents. All of their
efforts so far have been confined
to getting the convention in shape
so that they could control it in
the end and to prevent a nomina-
tion by an early ballot. By get
ting the convention deadlocked at
the proper time, their candidates
name will be sprung as a dark
horse and all of the delegates con-
trolled by the interests will be
swung to his support, and he will
be nominated, not as their candi-
date, but as the choice of the con-
vention. They will accept the de-
feat of their pretended candidate
and gracefully yield to the will of
the majority. But who will the
dark horse be? We don't know.
You will know next week. Maybe

EUGENE v. DEBS

We may not agree with the wis
dom of the Socialist party in sell
Getting Eugene v. Debs as their
nominee for president in the COM
ing election, but they have at least
shown their loyalty to great
leader who has spent a lifetime
advocating the principles for
which the Socialist party con-
tends. In the ordinary sense of
the word, Debs is not a criminal.
He merely expressed views which
were held to be in violation of a
wartime measure. The same
views could have been expressed
before and after the war with
impunity.
Debs believes that radical
changes should be made in the
laws of this country but, he advo-
Gates that those changes should
be made peaceably thru the ballot
and in the manner provided in the
constitution and laws of the Un-
tied States. He may be wrong
but his honesty is unquestioned.
If he is right he is paying the pen
atty for being in advance of hfs
time.
A long list of martyrs in the
history of the past could be NAM
ed who have done the same. Christ
was crucified because he taught
unwelcome truths which were
ahead of his time, and for genera
tions his disciples and followers
were executed and imprisoned.
but the truths which he taught
survived all this persecution and
still live. So it will be with the
philosophy taught by Debs. If it
is true it cannot be overcome by
throwing him and his followers in
prison. If it be true, persecution
will only accelerate its growth.
We can be reasonably sure that
Debs did not spend a million dol
lars to get the nomination. 1t
seems to have been one of those
rare cases of the Office seeking the
man, even tho it had to go behind
the locked doors of a prison cell
to find him.

by means of a carbon flame,
without injuring the mechanism.
If the following precautions.
suggested by the department Of
agricultural engineering of the
Nebraska college of agriculture,
are observed: The radiator must
be filled ith water to keep the
cylinder walls and valves { ;ol.
Both valves must be closed and
the piston placed at the top of
the cylinder to confine the oxy-
gen In the combustion chamber.
If compressed air Is at hand
after burning out the carbon,
the engine may be turned over
until the exhaust valve Is open
and jet Of air introduced Into
the cylinder to blow out all loose
particles of carbon which would
prevent the valves from seating
properly and thus impair COM
