Sprucetown, BUSINESS AT THE OLD STAND, From the New York World Republicans nesd bave no misgziv- ings about Col, Roosevelt's if-you-have any-doubt-on-on-the-saubject -do - not - nominate-me, There is only one condition nuder which Col. Rooseveit will not accept the Republican nomi- nation for President—the refusal of the Republican National Convention to nominate him. It makes po difference what the platform is. The Colopel will take the nomination if he can get it. It makes no difference what the record of the Republican Party in Congress is toward the protection of American rights against German sggression. The Colonel will take the nomination if he can get it, It makes no differ- ence whether the Republican Party is officially for peace-at-any-price or war- at-any-price. The Colonel will take the nomination if he can get It. It makes no cifference whether the Re- publican Party is under the domi- nation of Wall Btreet or Kansas, whether its motto is ** America First’ or ‘‘* Deutschland uber Alles.” The Colonel will take the nomination if he can get it, We think he will get it, The favor- ite sons are all in the scrar-heap, No- body ever took them seriously. Jus tice Hughes might bave had the nomination, probably on the first ballot, if he had res‘gned from the United States Bupreme Court two months ago and formally announced his candidacy. He has waited until it ia too late, Roosevelt has siready dealt him out of the game. The Old-Guard Republicans who professed to be for Hughes were never sincere. They did not want Hughes, They hate him and distrust him. He is not the kind of man they can do business witb, Some of them may hate Roosevelt too, but they can do business with bim, and they know that that business can always be con- ducted on the standard basis of 50-60, They never had serious trouble with Roosevelt antil he tried to resume con- trol of the party in 1912 without first making the necessary arrangements, This time the Colonel has attended to the arrangements two monthe in advance of the convention, The deal is practically consummated. Nothing remains but to work out the details, and while there will be grumbling and protests from organization Repub- licans here and and there, they will all be shouting for Roosevelt at Chicago, and Wall Street will be underwriting hia candidacy as it did in 1904, isThe Progressives are going to be sold out, of course, but that is what they are for. A distinguished Southern clergyman wrote a book before the Civil War to prove that the negro was created to be sold into slavery and thereby brought under the spiritual influence of Christianity, That is the status of the Progressive Party in the Roosevelt scheme of things, and in two months the Colonel will be ex- plaining to the brethren who battled for the Lord al Armageddon that their new chins are a special badge of honor, like the Iron Cross, and con- ferred only upon thoss who never faltered in toe fight, Al present, Roosevelt, for strategic reasons, may pretend to fear that the Republican Party is not worthy of him, but that is a temporary disabil- ity. The way for a party to mske i1- self worthy of the Jolonel is to nomi nate bim, and the Colonel is attending to that part of it himself. FROTEOT FISH AND GAME, Determined to Pat Step to Kobbing *treams of Trout Through Use of Nets —~FProseou- tion for Those Caught, The true sportsmen of Millbeim have organized an association which they have named the Fish and Game Protective Association, Buch an organigation has been made necessary in order to protect the interests of true sportsmen, besides preventing the wanton destruction of game flesh and animals by a class of game hogs who use the cover of darkness to shield them from the hands of the law, For many years past the streams about Millheimm have been stocked with trout and yet when the flsher- man who strietly obeys the law at- tempts to catch a few of the speckled beauties with rod and line, he finds the fish so scarce tha! there Is very little rea! sport connected with the game, This is the result of the work of night raiders who have no regard for the law and use nets to thoroughly deplete the streams of the few flsh that are placed therein, The members of the association pledge themselves to protect the fish and game, and so determined are they to abolish these illegal practices thst not even a brother will escape prosecu- tion if caught in illegal fisting or hunting. The officers of the association sare R. ®, Stover, president; B. M. Stover, secretary ; and 5, WW, Gramley, treas- urer, They invite sll true sportamen to join them in this good movement, Also, those who have been engaged in the illegal game are invited to give up their vrong dolog and join the ranks of the conservators of our native fiah apd game, ——————— A ————— Sinte Agricultural Notes, It coat Washington jcounty $9,242.45 for damages to sheep and other animals done by dogs and the return for dog licenses was $7,068.00, showing a loss to the county of over $2,000.00, Statistics show that of every dollar paid for foodstufls in country forty-five cents go tothe farmer, fifteen cents to legitimate marketing costs aud forty cents to speculative middie- men, this Bixty-two prosecutions have been made by the Dairy and Food Buresu of the Department of Agriculture against dealers for the sale of watired oysters, In most cases fines of $80 and cos's have been impossd, Eleven counties of the Hiate paid out more money for damages for sheep killed and injured and dog license tags than they received under the do: li- cense tax law for boroughs snd town. ships.
