NEW YORK. May 19-william james
Corners, of Buffalo-"Jim,' as he is
known to intimate friends-has opened
political headquarters for William Ran
dolph Hearst on the fifteenth floor Of
the Hotel McAlpin. 1t Is presumed that
Mr.. Hearst is agreeable to the move. else
Jim" would have gone straight through
to Buffalo from Palm Beach. Florida,
where he has a 1900 acre estate, and
passes the winter.
Mr.. Corners is advertising Mr.. Hearst
for Governor, talking up his candidacy
for the Democratic ticket. In 1905 Mr..
Hearst was the Democratic nominee for
Governor and was beaten. On that &C.
CASTOR Mr. Corners managed his cam
paign. entering the craftsmanship of the
Democratic State committee for that
specific purpose. Mr.. Corners relin-
Quished the State craftsmanship in 1910.
Mr.. Hearst is a publisher. Mr.. Corners
is a publisher. Neither of them is a
practical politician. as shown on the
record, but both know the value Of adj
vertising.
For twelve years now Mr.. Corners has
been out of active politics. He has been
busy making money in the Great Lakes
district with a transit corporation opera
ting four large passenger steamships and
a score or more OF freight boats, ex
tending this year down into Lake
Michigan. In one year the corporation
cleared 100000 profit. another year
half that sum and last year made money
when operating upon 10 per ceht basis.
He also has large railroad car repair
shop in East Buffalo, employing 1900

workers for whom he Is shortly to build
restaurant.
Incidentally, Mr.. Corners owns two
newspapers In Buffalo, the Enquirer and
the Courier. He has owned them for
twenty-five years.
Mr.. Corners takes the Hearst news
service for his dailies, which respectively
cover the evening and morning field. Mr.
Corners has been willing to break even
with his newspapers. for they represent
talents of his son, William J. Corners
Jr. graduate of Yale. who Is now their
publisher. During the war William J..
'Jr was attached to the aviation corps
of the army. which is a source Of great
pride to his father.
In more ways than one, the coming of
Mr.. Corners to the metropolis again
wrapped in the mantle of politics Is
news. He is now IS years old, and a
somewhat different sort of person than
the Corners. who stepped In on the
occasion when Mr.. Hearst last received
the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor. He is quieter and less talkative.
His affability is infectious. There is no
chance for 'the bread line" which
started to form. This time the Hearst
boom" is well card -indexed, and / ven
ture its entire cost will not exceed the
price Of an advertising page In one of
the Hearst publications.
In charge of headquarters Is John T.
Maher, an iron dealer Of Western New
York, who was secretary TO Mr. Connors

and was denoted. Mr.. Maher. expressing

is the mayors bcaker. Already the word
is out Mr.. Hearst will support for Gov
ernor such a map as Robert B. Wagner,
Supreme Court Justice, Tammany man.
which is the equivalent Of Mr.. Hearst
saying to Tammany Leader Charles +.
Murphy: Come and see me: am
reasonable man."
So many blister raising tales have been
told about Mr.. Corners that he deserves
this anecdote seeping into his long, hard
struggle from poverty into afluence
William J. Corners, provided with but
slender common school education, went
to work when II years old as deck
hand on steamship plying the waters
Of Lake Erie out of Buffalo. Hence,
when he became wealthy as freight
contractor, from the asphalt and paving
stone business and other money gatner-
ing enterprises, he built for himself
yacht, the Enquirer, which held the
speed record for fresh water until ne
turned it over to the Government IN the
Spanish American War.
Afterward he built a still inner yacht.

one day not so very long ago, Mr.: Con
ners anchored his craft in the harbor OF
a leading inland city. He was on shore,
when he encountered tall, elderly man
looking out at the yacht.
Are you the same Corners who owns
that boat?" asked the man.
William J. nodded.

the views Of Mr. Connors. pointed to the
result Of the Pennsylvania gubernatorial
candidacy in the Republican party as
rejecting the state Of public mind. He
thinks upstate New Workers of both sexes
will welcome the Hearst candidacy, ana
he instanced the high telephone rates
and more than ive-cent-fare being
charged by the street railway companies
in Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Utica, Al
bany and other secondary cities Of the
Empire State. IL Mr.. Hearst runs, he
surnised,. it would be upon a platform
for reform in rates for service performed
by public utility corporations.
The main drawback in considering Mr..
Hearst seriously for Governor on the
Democratic ticket is that in the last ma
publican candidates. There are enough
Wilson and Cox Democrats to defeat him
again. Besides. Tammany is against Mr.
Hearst. and some of it's leaders, including
the veteran Tom Foley, district leader of
Lower Ma nhattan, have given utterance
already to their opposition.
Then Mr. Hearst is a perennial candi-
date for office, a distinction he shares
with William Jennings Bryan. Always he
is mentioned and sometimes he runs only
to be defeated. He has been beaten twice
for mayor of New York and once for
Governor In his soul he probably

THE FARMERS WIFE REPLIES.

The life Of the average farmers
wife is not supposed to be particular
ly easy and frequently it is not es-
pecially attractive. It fact it is often
stated farmers wife works more
hours per day and receives less COM
pensation for her services than any of
her sisters. Moreover the women who
live on the farms are of course more
isolated, even in this day of the auto
mobile and the telephone, than the
residents of the village or the city.
What then are the advantages of
the farmers wife, what does she have
that her sister in the city lacks? A
woman residing in the northern Sec
ton Of this county has answered this
question, in part, in letter which is
published elsewhere in this issue.
Doubtlessly this woman is called upon
to perform the usual duties of the
wife and the mother on the farm.
There are long days of strenuous
manual labor and evening must find
her thoroughly weary, but happily not
discontinued and embittered. In her
family circle, which she holds un-
broken, and in the great outdoors she
finds the beauty, peace and quiet which
obliterates all sense of fatigue. She
has learned the joy of doing useful
work and she has acquired that men
tai poise which enables her to come
through day of strenuous manual
labor, in which she has been called
upon to perform countless homely
tasks, without having her peace of
mind at all disturbed. She is a hap
py, contented woman and may we'll be
envied by hundreds of her less for
tunate sisters who live in compare
tive ease and luxury.

The supporters Of. Edward Indre-
hus, who was endorsed by the demo-
Gratis for governor, ought not to lay
too much stress on the fact that their
candidate is dirt farmer. A man
who does not actually till the soil but
rents his farm is not generally re-
ferred to as dirt farmer. But then
why worry over such a small matter.
The voters Of this state want to see a
real man in the governors chair, one
who is capable Of directing the af-
fairs of this state, and they are not
particularly interested in the occupa-
ton of the man they draft into their
service. Mr.. 1ndrehus is pleasant
gentleman and undoubtedly has many
good qualities but he or any other
candidate who opposes J. A. o. Preus
will find that it takes more than a
phrase like ttdirt farmer" even if
correctly applied, to carry him to vic
tory.

TREES AND SHRUBBERY.

This is forest preservation week and
Friday has been designated by
President Harding as Arbor day.
There is seldom extensive tree plant
ing in Princeton on Arbor day be-
cause most of the streets of our viii
lage are already lined with beautiful
shade trees. But if there is room on
your lawn or in front OF your resi-
dence for few extra trees, why not
put them in? They are not expensive;
it is very little trouble to plant them
and in a few years they will be a
source of much pleasure. A house
without trees or shrubbery is more
incomplete than a picture without a
frame.
While we have many fine shade
trees and it is these which make
Princeton such an attractive village,
we have not used shrubbery to the
best advantage. There are many
hardy shrubs which grow rapidly in
this country and produce good effects.
Probably the most satisfactory of
these is the white spiraea that is COM
monty known as bridal wreath. It is
an exceedingly graceful, airy shrub,
ornamental during all the summer
months, but when in bloom in the
spring and covered with a profusion
of the white dainty blossoms it is a
thing Of beauty.
While Princeton is now one of the
prettiest villages in this section of the
state, with little effort on the part
of all the property owners it could
be made more attractive. We are on
one of the main trunk highways
many tourists will be passing through
here in the next few years. We car
make our village so neat and attrac-
tive that it will achieve a reputation
that will not only be source of much
satisfaction to all of us but of con
siderable value. For our own pleasure
and for the benefit of the general pub.
lie let us make Princeton one of the
beauty spots in this section of the
state.

1t will be admitted by all who have
followed the work of the administra-
ton that President Harding's determi-
nation to do away with bad service in
government has been bearing fruit
The shakeup in the bureau of printing
and engraving was but phase of the
results-more noticeable than some
others because the president directed
the custer. Other bureaus and de-
partments had earlier inaugurated a
cleaning up of their own through
eagerncss of their chiefs to act before
the reins of authority could be taken
from them. They showed themselves
capable of practicing economy and eff
ficiency when they saw it was neces-
sary. That has been the lax point in
government circles in Washington in
the past. Drawing pay for little or
no work was long the practice of fed
eral officers. Mr.. Harding came into
office facing a difficult proposition
but he has apparently adopted the
right tactics to overcome it.

The British government, which holds
the mandatory for Palestine, has, ac-
cording to foreign newspaper story,
granted the Standard Oil company the
right to make explorations in that ter
ritory. While other oil corporations
were sleeping, it seems, the Standard
made application and succeeded in Sc
curing that which it sought. This has
a far-reaching Importance to the Unit
ed States, as it indicates that the
contest of the state department to
preserve American rights in inundated
territory will be determined in favor
of this country.

AN ARMED CITIZENRY.


surprised last Monday
to hear that one of the stores
in this village had actually been plum
dered. Although it was the first rob-
berry to be committed here in decade
we should not be very much surprised
because We must remember that we
are only fifty miles from Minneap-
oils. It is possibly a little strange
that the bandits attempted to stage
their party quite so early in the sea-
son; month or two later they would
have found the roads to Minneapolis
in much better condition. With an
automobile and good roads, fifty miles
is no distance at all. The people in
Princeton and other similarly located
towns might just as we'll become
reconciled to the fact that they may
now expect these night raids at any
time unless the authorities actually do
succeed in cleaning up the cities. Of
course if We had our state constabu-
larry, such as Governor Preus advo-
Gates, the situation would be little
different. But as it is, the people in
the rural districts and the small vii
lagos will be quite at the mercy of a
gang of thieves with it's headquarters
in one of the twin cities, unless the
citizens constitute themselves their
own policemen.
When the Minneapolis police force
cannot cope with the bandits who al
most every day carry through one or
two successful robberies, we cannot
expect village the size of Princeton
to maintain sufficiently large police
force to protect the lives and property
of it's residents from the criminals
who stage these night raids. In all
seriousness, it would seem advisable
for the head Of every household to be
equipped with Colt As and to in
dulge in target practice until he has
acquired some skill in handling the
weapon. Most of the men in this sec
ton of the state are fond of hunting
and nearly every house contains at
least one rifle. It mi ght be adj
visable for the men to go out on the
rifle range more frequently so that
they could keep in practice in the in
tervals between the hunting seasons
and they could also give their wives
some instruction. Then too we might
reorganize our home guard and if we
ever have the luck to catch any OF
the bandits operating here make it SC
interesting for them that those who
live to. tell the tale will take great
care in the future to avoid this village
