When he was selected to make the Re publican keynote speech a prominent Ohio poli- tician said that means that the next President of the United States will be Senator Tess. Now comes Charles Nicholson New York World politi- cal writer, to say that out in Chicago they have already started a boom for Senator Deneen as the dark horse candidate upon which Republican fac tions might unte
 Senator Fess has been fortnight Admins tration Senator since taking his seat a few months before the death of President Harding. Before that he had been regular Republican in the House for ten years. He has served as Chairman of the Republican Congressional Cam paign Committee. While he is staneh Repub- lican and has always maintained close relations with his party organization, he has been re- garded as more patriotic than partisan He gave the Wilson Administration loyal support during the war, and refused to be a party to the Con gressiona cabal that set out to undermine his influence in the country. He possesses three earned college degrees-Bachelor of Arts, Master of Arts and Bachelor of Law. Before going to Congress he had been educator-a professor of history, professor of law and college Presi- dent. He got his degree lawyer more than thirty years ago. but practiced the pro fesson. None question his abilities upright ness. He will be q years old pextDecember. M Senator Deneen, who became Senator three years ago, is serving his first time in Congress. . He has the three college degrees that are held by Senator Fes. He served in the Illinois Legislature a young man and for eight years States Attorney at Chicago. He then be- came Governor of Illinois for eight years. Be- tween times he has successfully practieed law in Chicago since 1886. While he has been a consistent and fearless supporter of President Coolidge's policies, he lined up with former Gov. Lowden in the recent Illinois primary con- test. It is thought that he might be the one man upon whom the Coolidge and Lowden sup porters might unite On account of his years and years in the whrl of complicated Chicago and Illinois politics he has been looked upon rather Illinois character than figure in National matters He is able and far cleaner than most Chicago Republican leaders.

 There is rejoicing in public ownership circles Light Association maintains publicity bureau operating a national basis
 The amusing aspect of the alleged exposure is the virtuous indignation of string or news papers in which public ownership publicity is an almost daily feature
 What is issued by the electric light assoeia- tion is called propaganda; what is published by the public ownership press is called public in formation.

WONDERFUL TRIBUTE TO THE HOST
 CAUSE"

While the great Stone Mountain memorial that unveiled the other day near Atlanta is usually referred to the Lee statue" when 1t shall have been completed the figures of Presi- dent Jefferson Davis of the Southern Confederacy, Gen. "Stonewa Jackson and other Generals will also appear in the group of which Gen. Lee is the foreground.
 The great bas-reef carving, when completed, will be one of the most impressive memorials erected, and if will be that will last throughout time. When the pyramids shall have become a part of the Nile sands it will stand to testify to the heroism of the leaders of the Lost Cause" It is wonderful tribute from two generations of people born since defeat over whelmed those leaders and who have proited through the defeat. And equally wonderful is the fact that the descendants of those who were victorious those leaders have been generous contributors to the cost of the memorial and sincere sympathizers with it's purpose.

Lee at Stone Mountain.

 There precedents for the gigantic bas- relief of Gen. Robert E. Lee the face of Stone Mountain, Georgia, which yesterday "un- veiled," but precedent in magnitude. Thor waldsen's Dying Lon' at Lucerne, carved in native rock. perhaps the most famous of such figures, could be placed in the crook of the Gen. erals in the Stone Mountain group.
 Called the Lee statue, the carving when con- pleted will show four great leaders of the Con- federacy with Lee in the foreground, a mighty figure nearly as long as short block in New York City, and high nine-story apartment house The beginning of the scultpure of the mighty figures-after tons of rock upon which Cutzon Borglum had made beginning were blasted away-s made by workmen handling elec- tric drills such excavate cellar in our cities. The sculptor, August Lukeman, begins his work when the blueprint preliminaries are completed. In no other manner could the making of so mighty a piece of sculpture, visible miles away, have been possible.
 The Stone Mountain image of the beloved leader of the Southern armies is more than a great gesture. It is thesis. It is meant as the memorial of cause, personifed. The was lost; the South accepts the verdict of fate but it does not forget And to memory, and for memory, it is erecting in imperishabe granite this. giant figure of "Marse Robert" Nor will there be, now. any "wavng of the bloody shirt' in the North the unveilng of so eloquent Ia tribute.

Usually life insurance is permitted to lapse at the moment when need for it is greatest Insurance men ascribe the practice almost en- tirely to plan of retrenehment the part of the insured, influencing him to let go of that which is easiest to release and also is the most difficult to replace The mistake is serious If the insurance is renewed, as most likely will not happen, the insured must pay higher rate Nor tality tables are respecter of individuals.
