would give Senator Pepper their en-
dorsement.
Over in Pennsylvania another
kind of situation has bobbed I'D.
In that state, the
Pennsylvania bosses have had
Situation trouble agreeing
on their candi-
dates, and finally they took their
troubles to the White House. Ct
mean the Democratic bosses which
have supplanted the Republican
bosses who used to rule Pennsyl-
vania.) The result of the White
House confab was that Governor
Earle will run for Democratic NOM
ination to the senate so he will be
alongside another New Dealer, Sem
ator Guffey, and Charles A. Jones,
Pittsburgh attorney, was picked as
the nominee for governor. These
selections were made by the state
committee, which is controlled, of
course, by New Dealers, and there
fore those are about the only names
of importance that will be voted on
in the statewide primary. But the
significance of these things is not so
apparent until it is known that two
or three important Democrats in
Pennsylvania have withdrawn and
have retired from politics. as a
result of the situation.
Now, in Indiana, there is still an
other picture. 1t is probably the
most interesting of any now taking
shape. In the Hoosier state, we are
started off with an announcement
from the steps of the White House
by Governor Townsend that Evan
Mugs must CO." He referred to the
Democratic Senator Van NuyS who
had the temerity to oppose the
Presidents court packing bill and
who generally is regarded as much
more of a Democrat than his col
league, Senator Minton, who re-
mains inside the New Deal fence
always.
The Indiana picture is further
complicated by the smoke rings
Paul McNutt is blowing around. Mr..
McNutt, former governor of the
state and now high commissioner
to the Philippine commonwealth, is
running for the New Deal nominal
ton for the Presidency like the we'll
known jackrabbit. He says, how
ever, that he is not candidate for
anything. 1t is a statement that is
hard to believe because the McNutt
airplane flight from the remote is
lands, the speeches across the Unit
ed States, the free food-free drink
free publicity party given for Mr..
McNutt at an outstanding Washing
ton hotel-all combine to spell the
launching of a political boom of
some kind. So, in Indiana, the Dem
ocratic state committee soon will be
setting up slate of its choice
and that choice will be satisfactory
to the President. 1t means that
these will be New Dealers. That is
apparent because of the death SEN
tence already pronounced for SEN
ator Van Mugs. Of course, Mr.. Van
Mugs isn't licked yet, but that is
the picture.
Then, the Indiana situation is, or
ought to be, of great interest to the
I- Republicans. I am
eTeStS told that if the
G. o. p. Democratic COM
mittee, controlled
as it is, should ditch Senator Van
Mugs, he may decide to run as an
independent candidate for re-elec-
ton. He probably would not get
anywhere in a machine controlled

draw enough away from the Demo
cratic vote to enable Republican
to win.
Now, out in Indiana there is a
right up-and-coming young fighter
on the Republican team. He is Rep.
Charles Halleck. By virtue of the
fact that he is lone Republican con-
gresham from Hoosier territory,
Mr.. Halleck is in a splendid posi-
ton to set off some fireworks. Mr..
Halleck is highly regarded by Dem
ocrats and Republicans in the house.
He is young, vigorous and keen.
Furthermore, Mr.. Halleck is neither
a conservative nor a radical, and
we are hearing more and more OF
a swing in the country that prob
ably will land our political policies
in the middle of the road, instead
of on the wild-eyed programs OF
most New Dealers or the moss
backed policies of hide-bound Re
publicans of yesteryear.
AS see the picture in Indiana,
therefore, it is not impossible to
conjure up situation in which the
New Deal attempt to drive Senator
Van Mugs from politics would back
fire to the extent of electing a Re-
publican senator.
Kentucky also provides battle
ground. In that state, I think New
Dealers made a great mistake and
it may eventuate that the mistake
will cost them dearly. Senator
Barley, the Roosevelt spokesman
in the senate, is going to have to
fight his hardest to win renomina-
ton over Gov. Happy" Chandler.
Kentuckians here who know the pol
itics of their home state tell me
that the governor is a real challen-
ger and that he is a campaigner of
genuine ability.
Concerning the New Deal mis-
take: it will be remembered when
Al Mr.. Roosevelt in
NeW Deot terfered in senate
Error affairs by indicat-
ing his choice for
the leadership upon the death of
the great Senator Robinson of Ar
kansas. That was the occasion when
the President wrote to Senator
Barley, addressing him as Dear
Alben," and thereby attached a IL
tie that has proved such source OF
levity. When it became apparent
that Mr.. Barley would meet oppo-
sition, the New Deal promoted a tes-
timonial dinner for the senator and
sent numerous New Deal wheel
horses to Louisville to attend.
Among them was Marvin Mcintyre.
assistant secretary to the President.
Well, the Chandler folks built I'D a
testimonial luncheon for the COVER.
nor on the same day. Although Mr..
Mcintyre reached Louisville in
time, he "just could not make it" to
get to the Chandler luncheon. So
that was that, and hundreds of Ken.
tuckians at once decided that the
New Deal was going to have Mr.,
Barley and that made them saw
to themselves that they would
choose their senator. It is of such
incidents that political victories and
political defeats are made.
Another battle-ground yet to be
mentioned is Iowa. Senator Gil.
lette was among those who did moi
like the Presidents court reorgani.
cation scheme, and said so. From
there on, he has been a marked
man. He will have to fight for
denomination, therefore, against a
New Dealer-rather, an opponent Of
New Deal selection. Representative
Wearin has announced that he will
be a candidate for the Democratic
nomination.

MONTREAL SETS UP
 $12,5OO GOLF MEET

Montreal, March 15.-(UP)-The worlds richest" golf tournament, boasting purse of $12.50o, will be held here in June, 1889, it was announced today by Verdon G. Cardy, prominent Canadian hotel executive.
 Cardy said reports that the tour nament would be held during the summer of 1888 were erroneous He announced the prize money after a meeting of a special tournament advisory committee attended by many leading golf figures, includ- ing P. G. A. President George Ja- cobus of the United States. The large purse was guaranteed in an effort to attract star golfers from Canada, the United States, Great Britain and other European coun- tries.

Hasn't she come out of the shop yet?" Polly inquired, remov- ing her bonnet before a looking glass. T thought her dress was right gaudy for the street. Maybe she's gone in to buy something more suitable"
 Jerry whirled about and seized Polly's hands. He drew her near to him, so that their faces were close. You're jealous little cat, Polly Chelsey. You're nobody's angel. You'd be hard to handle"
 "Yes, Jerry" she said tenderly, meltingly. T reckon that's so .. Oh, Jerry. don't you see how it is? I've never taken sweetheart before. I seem to want all of you even the past that happened be- fore you'd ever heard of me. I reckon this is being in love. It was feeling like this, I guess, that made my mother go to America in Trepid Chelsey's ship and marry him." Her arms crept around Jerry's neck and she was answer ing his kiss.
 After moment they drew apart and Jerry said, confused and shaken, Were talking of love again, and I said I'd not till I got you home to your father! How has this happened?"
 Because we quarreled," Polly answered simply.
 They resumed their New England reserve then, as they might have

 ''Tell me what o'clock we're to start in the morning." Polly said, so I'll not keep the coach waiting"
 "Ill knock on your door soon after daylight. You must get up at once and dress and pack your clothes. Then we'll have break fast and wait in tn e courtyard for the Dover coach. I've spoken for two seats Take your money now, Polly. It'll be best for you to carry it. Can you hide it about your persona"
 "Yes. I've a doeskin bag for that purpose. Will there be any trouble about the dog in the coach, Jerry?"
 T don't think so. If there is, I can take him on top. I'll go down now and have look at him before I turn in"
 "You're so kind, Jerry. How could I have been so cross to you? How could I have been 50 hate ful?"
 T know more about typhoons, Jerry said with a grin, than about lovers quarrels. And believe it's easier to handle ship than g woman. Good night, Polly"
 He bent and kissed the palm o1 each of her hands, thinking of what some future night must bring in danger - the English Channel and the dark uncertainty of smuggler's crossing. Could ht bring her safely through it? These were his thoughts.
 Good night, Jerry"
 She thought only of how his dark hair curled as his head bent over her hands.

THE strong plea which President A Roosevelt has made in the last four years for closer Pan Amer ican relations is reflected in the first stamp ever issued portray ing living President of the United States.
 This is one of the four stamps appearing on the new Guatemalan miniature sheet honoring the 15Oth anniversary of the U. S. Consti- tuition. In Spanish the inscrip- ton below President Roosevelt's picture reads: Good friend of the Latin American Countries"
 And the Guatemalan gesture is Carried even step further to cement relations with the United States. The sheet also carries the portrait of George Washington, in- scribed in Spanish: "First in Peace, First in War and First in the Hearts of His Countrymen." The two remaining stamps show the Pan American building in the capital at Washington and map of the Americas, with airplanes shuttling back and forth in a con- stant stream of communication.

John Henry North had registered at and was guest of hotel. North, by profession, was confidence man, but on the night in question was dabbling in a side line, namely, playing cards for money. AS North well knew, gambling was criminal offense.
 On this night he had enticed one Sebastin Stanley to come to his hotel room-for a friendly little game. North's room was located on the fifth floor of the hotel. The ele- vator shaft was located in a dark corner behind the stairway.
 Stanley opened the elevator door and stepped in, but, alas, the eleva- tor cage was up and he went down, most suddenly. He broke his arm, cracked his skull, and sustained other serious and annoying injuries
 He demanded compensation from the hotel; after they learned the purpose of his visit the hotel indig- nantly refused. Stanley promptly commenced suit.
