New York's Short Campaign.

The campaign in New York this
year. will be short. Nominations will
not be made until late September.
leaving only about four weeks for
stumping and other purposes.
Short, but lively. Once the game Is
called in that state it Is played with
a rush, and to the limit. Everything
goes.
While it seems certain that Gov.
Miller will be renominated. he has not
yet replied definitely to overtures. He
entered politics reluctantly. and more
than once has expressed q desire to
return to the law. These are lush
times for litigation, and fees are large.
At the bar again. Gov. Miller. who
ranks high in his profession. would be
in clover.
But he has given the state a good
administration, and the leaders OF his
party are united in the opinion that
he should repeat. Probably he Will.
The democrats are In a spirited con-
troversy as to their candidate. Former
Gov. AL Smith seems to toy with the
suggestion Of his name. while Mayor
Hylan is insisting that his duty calls
for his presence in his present Office
during the time for which he was
elected. The need Of a strong man to
face Gov. Miller Is recognized.
National matters are but little un.
der discussion. Mr.. Harding's renom'
ination is accepted as certainty, but
his opponent is not yet in sight from
the New York observation tower.
The democrats are hoping he may de
velop in the coming state race and
give them the prominence they desire
at the party's next national conven.
ton.

Messages From Mars.

his yacht-laboratory. from which some
thought he was experimenting on the
voyage over with messages to and
from Mars. The red planet is now
within about 45,o00,000 miles of the
earth, the closest approach in recent
times, and there Is much interest In
the possibility of interplanetary COM
nunication. But Marconi declares
that he has made no attempts to
''raise' Mars or to listen in on any,
thing that Mars might possibly be

telligible message projected in 100000

says, knows no such wave length, and
cryptic as it was the message in that

thing. But Marconi does not propose
to pursue this spook Of the ether, for
there is too much work to be done

Showing His Hand.

The President is In dead earnest on
the subject Of an American merchant
marine. Congress has 1t fiat. There
was need Of just such an expression.
Much is said about foreign opposi.
ton to the entrance Of America into
the field of sea-carriers. Some inven-
ton may be employed. Some exag-
geration may mark the gossip. The
subject lends itself somewhat to that
sort Of thing.
But Congress can afford to put that
aside. Whatever there may be In 1t, 1t
is not sufficient to support the action
desired. America should not become a
sea.carrier simply because established
sea-carriers object, II they do object.
We should enter that field because
destiny beckons. We belong there.
We were once powerful there. 1t is
more inviting now than then. We
have far more reason for such ac-
tivity than we had then. We are q
great producing nation. and seeking
foreign markets for our productions.
Naturally. we desire to deliver them
in foreign ports ourselves. It Is to our
Interest to do so.
No partisan question is involved.
The Presidents recommendation Is
not that Of q party leader. but that
of the leader Of all the people in q
matter concerning them all. II We es-
tablish ourselves profltably and per-
manently as a sea-carrier, Americans
in all walks Of life and business will
benefit in the advanced prestige Of
the country.
