Charge british Pressure.

One OF the Gaelic American articles
stressed by the OBrien managers
charged that spokesmen of British in
terests in this country brought pressure
TO bear on Murphy and Tammany to
turn down Cohalan, and through him to
hit the Irish cause in this country.
Murphy threw out Cohslan because
he fought the Wilson crowd and the
League OF Nations and che British Nun
ply has been taken over by the British, .
the article stated.
This issue will be kept to the front
by the O'Brien men. it is believed, and
will be the answer to the Cohalan ac-
cusations that deal was made by MUIR
ply and koenig to put the Republican
leaders, brother on the bench. Mr..
O'Brien began his campaigning last eve
ming. speaking at four meetings. and pro-
poses TO keep 1t up a. that pace until

The Irish feud was dragged into the
city campaign yesterday wnen John r.
O'Brien. nominee for Surrogate on Re-
publican and Democratic tickets, opened
Headquarters in the Commodore Hotel
and began slamming back at John T..
Cohalan. to whom n denomination was
refused and who is running inde-
pendently.
The first thing the O'Brien managers
did was TO hama out copies OF mani
festo circulated by the Clan-na-Gael ana
copies OF articles in the Gaelic -4ntert-
eau, the purport of which is rnat Charles
f. Murphy was persuaded by British IN
fuences to reject Cohalan because OF
the latters fight for the Irish Free
state. Murphy doesn't like the Free
Staters. according to this literature. ana
IS disciplinlng the Surrogate forihis ac-
tivIties.
Quick denial came from the Cohalan
headquarters at Broadway and Forty
third street that any Irish issue is in
volved and it was stated the charges
will be answered In due course. The
assertion was made that this is an at
tempt of the Murphy -Koenig forces to
befuddle the issue.

Back in the early days matched
roofs were used on log cabins by the
sturdy pioneers who bluzed their way
through virgin forest and Wilderness
This type of roof has been used for CEN
turtles in Europe, in fact, it is still
used over there on peasant homes, and
naturally the early settlers followed
the lead Of their fathers. But, because
Of the abundance Of lumber and other
materials in this country, the matched
roof Of straw and mud did not last,
and was soon replaced by the more
durable type Of roof There was some
thing inviting and informal about the
old matched roof that could not be re-
placed. In an effort to approximate

TROM the day he left law school 1t
was the ambition of William H.
Taft to be chief justice Of the
Supreme Court of the United States.
Through the years, Mr.. Taft bent
his energies to the achievement OF that
ambition. He became a judge early IN
life. and made a good record.
He left the bench for service under
Presidai,, Roosevelt. believing that
through. work for the nation he would
be better able to reach his goal.
When he was offered the post of sec
rotary of war, Mr.. Taft made It. known
to Mr.. Roosevelt that he would pre-
fer a place on the Supreme bench.
No place was open at that time ana
he acccp:e ed the secretaryship with the
understanding that his ambition might
be grat!tied later.
Then the eAigencies Of politics made
him candidate for the presidency, an
honor no American Of ability is likely
to refuse.

Mr.. Taft became President, yet his
real ambition had not been achieved.
Now he has been given the post he
80 long wanted, and will, most people
believe, fill it with great credit.
OF course, few men can single out
particular high post as the object OF
life ambition with any hope of attain
Ing it.
Yet it was because Mr.. Taft wanted
to be chief justice that he developed
the ability that made him first COVER
nor of the Philippines, then sort of
rowing commissioner for Mr.. Roose-
welt, and later secretary Of war.
II he had not wanted, with all his
heart, to be chief Justice, he would
never have been President. Content
ment with a federal judgcship would
have kept him always in Ohio.

Of humanity are restlessly active un-

sphere Of their attainment until they
surpass anything yet offered to the
world. It's no wonder the world
wants the product and delights to
honor men of such industry.
In the last analysis, attainment is a
matter of industry. They-tell us "the
gods give gold for sweat" Certain 1t
is that as we toll. new ideas and pos

application suggests still greater pos

This part of the world isn't con-

about the efficiency degree. 1t wants

until it will take more than one pair
of hands to do what the brains die

And we shall sit In quiet age
