$195, 900 himself in his effort to pre-
serve the purity of the ballot" The
state journal emphasizes the support
that Ware would give to the President.

ordinary case, and remarks: when
a man has debauched the electorate

the Importance of rebuking him in a

From the careful wording of the

lit looks as If the conclusion he ar
rived at was something like this:
Unless thousands of Republicans are

elected. If he Is elected, the Senate
is sure to refuse to seat him. II the
Senate refuses to seat him, PennSyl-
vania will have to choose some one
else. And that some one may be
Pinchot." The Scranton Scranto-
nian suggests that many believe that
Pinchot thought he could later run
independent and defeat both Ware and
Wilson," that paper holding that the
governor originally Ensured the nom
ination of Ware" The Fargo Forum

did all the damage he possibly could
by insisting upon his own candidacy
in the primary, robbing Senator Pep

I'VE do not know as we figure that
Pinchot ought to support Ware" says
the Yakima Republic Republican),
but 1t would seem to be reasonable
and decent that he should go back and
sit down and keep quiet IL he does not
feel that he can continue to sit in the
game which he helped to organize"
The Reno Evening Gazette (Repub-

sidered spOrtsmanlike among Ameri-
cans to enter n contest, thus accepting
al the conditions, and then, when
outvoted, TO refuse to accept defeat in
graceful manner"

Little Effect Is FOreseen
In PinchOt Attack on Ware

Political observers generally foresee
little practical effect from Gov. Pin
chot's denunciation of Representative
Ware, Republican nominee in Pennsyl-
vania for the Senate.
while Pinchot's attack is not as
strong as it might have been" the
Springfield Republican independently
believes, 'it can hardly fail to in
f1uence thousands of Pennsylvania
voters. With Senator Norris of Ne
braska, a Republican member of the
Senate, although a radical one, openly
touring the State in behalf of Mr.
Wilson; with Republican ministers
calling on their congregations to re-
pudiate Ware; and with the governor
setting the example of repudiating the
nominee of his own party, there is at
least hope that Pennsylvania will ad-
minister a stunning rebuke to a
candidacy whose very character and
backing are proclamation of the high
office which is at stake"
The Philadelphia Evening Bulletin
independent Republican, states that
truth is, the governor gives voice to
thoughts that have been in many
minds. Republican voters who do not
follow a bell Wether," continues the
Bulletin, "haVe in considerable num-
Der been facing the situation which
has engaged the governor and which
to them has been a dilemma. Some
thing more than the appeal of party
regularity and the subordination of
personal inclination to the decision of
the primary contest enters into the
situation this year. For the great
majority of the Republican voters who
were opposed to the nomination of
Congressman Ware, there is, as prime
consideration in the matter. the i'm
portance of supporting President Cool
idge and his administration, and
particularly in the Senate, where the
situation is crucial. That considera-
ton and that alone will be the saving
grace for a candidacy that is not
worthily representative of the Re-
publican party of Pennsylvania and
that was supported by but a minority
Of the party in the primary contest.
II the governor had realized the hope

Take the Whole Triangle Now!

Recommendation to Congress that
authority be given for the immediate
acquisition by the Government Of all
the land in the Mall-Avenue triangle
remaining in private possession is
likely to be made by the officials
charged with the task of locating the
public buildings provided for under
the new program of public service
housing constructions.
II is gratifying to find that this
move, so long urged in the interest Of
the reclamation of the Capitals prin.
cipal thoroughfare. and also in the
interest of Government economy in
the location Of public buildings, Is at
last to be made. The immediate sit
uation calls for it urgently. Congress
has manifested a disposition to pro-
ceed constructively with building pro-
vision for the executive departments.
It is familiar with the proposal to es.
tablish this area between Pennsyl-
vania avenue and the Mall as the gen.
eral site for the public structures of
the future. On several occasions in
the past it has been close to the point
Of actually legislating and appropriate
ing for the wholesale acquisition of
the land.
There will be no delay of the actual
building projects in going to Congress
for the necessary authority to use for
this large real estate transaction
part of the fund already established
though not in fact appropriated-to
carry through the general construc-
ton program of the Government. The
Public Building Commission must Sc
cure the specific allotments as the
buildings are determined upon. For
sites it can use either Mall space or
the land already bought by the Gov.
ernment, that comprising the "five-
square" section at the western edge
Of the triangle. There is no present
disposition to use the Mall for such a
purpose. At the most only two of the
department buildings can be located
on the Fifteenth street site. If the
Commerce building is there placed the
Justice and Labor buildings must go
elsewhere, presumably somewhere
within the triangle. If they go on FIT.
teenth street the Commerce building
must go to some point in the triangle.
Therefore, land buying within the tri-
angle is necessary at once to permit
the execution of the building project.
If one or two or three squares are
taken for the immediate purposes Of
the building program, the Government
will lose money If it delays for later
action the purchase Of the remainder
of the area. 1t also delays the recla-
nation of the Avenue, which is the
Capitals greatest street. it's historic
thoroughfare.
Every consideration of good bust.
ness management demands a whole
sale immediate taking of this space,
which is so plainly indicated as the
ideal location for the Government
structures Of the future and which
has been included in all recent Capital
planning projects for such use.

A Bad Year for Champions.

The year 1926 will long be remem.
bered by sport lovers as unprecedent-
ed in the overthrow of champions. In
boxing, in tennis, both men and WON.
en-, and in golf new figures have
stepped up to take the highest places
in the national hall of honor.
When Gene Tunney last night out.
boxed, outsmarted and outslugged
Jack Dempsey, heavyweight pugilistic
champion Of the world for the past
seven years, the climax to a series Of
upsets had been recorded in the
ledger. Tunney. the ex.Marine, the
fighter for Uncle Sam as we'll as the
challenger for the heavyweight throne,
had achieved the goal for which he
had so earnestly striven.
Helen Wills, monarch of woman's
tennis in the United States, was the
first to feel the lash Of defeat, al.
though of all the dethroned champions
she, perhaps, is the most likely to re-
gain her title. Returning from abroad
following an operation for appendi-
citis, she essayed to defend her cham.
pionship. but proved unequal to the
task, and Mrs. Molla Mallory regained
the trophy which she had held five
times before.
big Bill" Tilden. heretofore invinci-
BILE on the courts and conceded to be
the international champion raquet
wielder, surrendered the title when he
was eliminated in the recent singles
championship at Forest Hills, N. Y,
by Henri Cochet, the dashing French
man. The fact that for the first time
in history all-French finals were
played in the American singles did not
serve to console Tilden for the loss of
the championship that had been solely
his own for six consecutive years.
Next came Bobby Jones. the master
golfer, who for two years had reigned
as the amateur champion of the
United States. Winner of the British
open and the American open. Jones
was a heavy favorite to make 1t
three straight in the amateur, but 1t
was too much to expect from the
tickle fortunes Of the links, and
Bobby bowed his head to George Won
Elm, who has carried the title back
to his native California after knock.

eral years.
OF the four who went down fighting
in this year of upsets, Wills, Tilden.
Jones and Dempsey, only Wills and
Jones are expected to regain their for.
mer titles. Helen, by the time the
next championships roll around, will
be completely recovered from her ILL
ness, while any man who successfully
battles Jones string Of pars and
brides on the links will have to at.
tune his game to a high standard.
Sport championships are elusive at
best. A rare degree of coordination
and skill are necessary to triumph in
the various fields of endeavor. Coupled
with these must be the urge to win,
the competitive spirit. These qualities
cannot be retained over long period
of time; something is lost, and a new
champion is crowned. A boxer, a ten
mis- player or a golfer-it Is all the
same. That is what makes athletic
championships the center of the
worlds interest.
