POLITICS HELD NOT ISSUE.
Governor Says Case Will Be Judged
Solely on It's Merits.

ALBANY, N. Y. August 10 (P.-Gov
Roosevelt's last word on the Walker
case before tomorrow's hearing on the
charges against the New York mayor
was reiteration that politics will have
no bearing on his decision.
A London newspaper telephoned to
the Democratic presidential candidate
yesterday to get first hand his position
on the matter. The Governor said that
what he had said frequently to Ameri-
can newspaper men, that he would con-
slider the case purely as a Judge and
that the possible effect Of his decision
on his presidential candidacy would
have no weight
The Albany County Democratic or
ganization, outspokenly anti-Roosevelt
in the past, had orders from the county
chairman to greet" Mayor Walker
when he arrives tonight from New York.
The Albany organizations action
came as surprise. At the end of q
meeting to designate candidates for
city and county officers, Edward J.
OConnell, county chairman, said Each
and every one of you should go to the
Union Station tomorrow night to well
come Mayor Jimmie Walker" The 400
odd members of the County Committee
jumped to their feet and applauded.
The O'Connell organization was for
Alfred E. Smith at Chicago. 1t has
been a Tammany ally in State affairs
and only recently indorsed Mayor John
Boyd Thacher for the Democratic gu
bernatorial nomination in opposition
to Gov. Roosevelt's choice, Lieut.. Gov.

radicals and Communists. made an or
ganized attack on the police of the Dis
trict of Columbia. In this attack they
injured a score OF policemen. They
overwhelmed the police and two rioters
were killed.
District Asked Troops.
"The officials of the District of Co
lumbia demanded in writing to the
President that being unable to preserve
order in the Capital of the Nation
troops should be sent to prevent further
disorder and loss of life The first duty
of the President of the United States is
to maintain order. He acted unhesi-
tatingly.
From the moment the troops entered
the city not a shot was fired, not e
man injured. Law and order were
promptly restored. The great bulk of
the demonstrators, instead of being
evacuated, fled the city. They knew
were afraid to be brought before the
proper tribunals. They beat 1t.
There were thousands Of good and
innocent men among them. But this
Republic Is founded upon order, not
upon mob attack upon the police. If
you do your duty, you will tell these
indisputable facts to the American
people"
Anderson, upon leaving the White
House, told newspaper men that motion
pictures he had seen did not bear out
Mr.. Joslin's statement" Rorty added
"Joslins description of the eviction of
the bonus army didn't jibe with ac-
counts of competent reporters for news
papers that are not considered radical"

HOUSE TELLS HOW
TO NAME winner
Technique of EIecting Presi-

Advised Wilson.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, August 10.-The tech
nique of electing President. says Col
Edward M. House in the issue OF Cos
mopolitan Magazine published yester-
day. is almost identical with the tech
nique of electing a village constable.
THE well advised campaign man.
ager marshals his forces as If his can
didate were running not for President
but for village constable or justice OF
the peace" writes the man who helped
elect Woodrow Wilson and served as
his confidential adviser.
Col. House calls his article How tc
Make Either Candidate the Next Pres
ident."
Claims Democratic Strength.
There is not State west of the
Mississippi" he writes, that at this
writing may not be carried by the
Democrats"
He lists the following 13 States as
those in which "the number of elec-
toral votes and the narrow margin be-
tween the candidates justify the most
intensive effort:
California, Illinois, Ohio, Arizona
Connecticut, Indiana Maryland, Mis-
souri,, New Jersey, New Mexico. New
York. West Virginia and wyoming.
THE indignation of the electorate In
bad times turns invariably against the
party in power" he says. "On the
other hand. it is possible the pendulum
having swung too far in one direc-
tion, may swing back to the Repub-
licanS,
THE Republicans must maintain the
contention that the shadow around the
corner is prosperity and not the
sheriff"
Other quotations from his article fol-
low:
Picks Man Like Self.
"The average voter sees in the Presi-
dent his own self magnified. He votes
for the man who is most like himself.
THE American system precludes the
selection of the best man for President
Most of our Presidents have been
average men,"
Mass meetings and mass enthusiasm
are no guaranty of success at the polls. u
Normally the country is approxi-
mately 48 per cent Republican and AZ
per cent Democratic. Ten per cent Of
the voters fiuctuate. The election Is
determined = by the 10 per cent"
THE campaign manager who analyzes
the mood of the independent element
most adroitly will elect his candidate"
The independent vote is composed
of those who do net know their own
minds and of those who wish to make
up their minds for themselves"

Senator Hattie w. Caraway of Jones

Of Paragould appeared today to have
the Democratic nominations for Sena-
tor and Governor, respectively, within
their grasp on the basis Of returns from
almost half the precincts in the State.
Mrs. Caraway, the first woman ever
to occupy seat in the United States
Senate through an election, had more
than 2-to-1 lead over the nearest

proximately 2,l00 precincts in the State.
Bodenhamer Is Second.
These gave her 39,107 votes, with
Maj. O. L. Bodenhamer of Eldorado
past national commander of the Amer
ican Legion, running second. with
1877 votes, and Vincent M. Miles oi
Fort Smith, for IT years Democratic
national committeeman, in third place
with 5000. Former Gov. Charles H
Brough had 7,248 for fourth position
The 59-year-old Paragould jurist,
running with the support of Gov
Harvey Parnell was far out in front
in the seven-cornered gubernatorial
race. Returns from 938 precincts gave
him 1888 votes, with his closest con-
tender. former Gov. Tom j. Terral, who
had 1889 votes. Judge A. B. Priddy
of Russellville held third place with
10925; Dwight H. Blackwood, chairman
of the State Highway Commission. had
9,474; State Controller Howard A.
Reed, 3,707; w. P. Wilson of Little
Rock, 1879. and Arley woodrow Of

House IncumOents Lead.
The five Representatives who had
opposition for denomination we're In the
lead, some with narrow margins, and in
the fourth district, in which Repre-
sentative Efigene Wingo did not seek
denomination, Ben Craven, former
House member, took lead early today
over four opponents. Representative
w. J. Driver of the first district had
no opposition.
Mrs. Caraway, retiring early last night
after finishing perhaps the most spec
tacular campaign Arkansas has ever
seen, in which she toured the State for
week with the colorful Senator Huey
P. Long Of Louisiana and his musical
sound trucks, soon found 1t difficult to
sleep. as friends called her to tell her
of her rapidly swelling plurality. To-
day, as she rested with friends at Hot
Springs, she expressed qualification over
her apparent victory.
Although only about $4,000 Of an es-
timated 100000 to 225,000 votes cast
had been accounted for in the tabula-
tions, they indicated the trend in almost
every section, and although none of the
other candidates for Senator and Gov
ernor had publicly conceded defeat,
they had little hope of overcoming the
heavy pluralities shown for Chancellor
Futrell and Mrs. Caraway.
