MASTENR OF THE SIXULTION,
New York World
ior the time being, the Roosevelt
candidacy may seein formidable on
paper, but there is no real substance
to it.
The man who is master of the Re-
publican situation is not Theodore
Roosevelt but Charles KE. Hughes.
Ten words from Hughes would com-
pletely wreck the Hoosevelt campaign
and drive the grand army of ex-oflice-
holders from the trenchee,
1f Hughes were to resign from the
United states Supreme Court to-mor-
ow sod sonouusce his candidacy,
Roosevelt's campaign for the Republi-
can nomination, would be ended.
Presenting his name Lo Lhe convention
would be a waste of time and words.
This may Le a bumiliating position
for the Only Patriotic American to be
placed ip, but it is the fact neverthe-
less.
Whatever progress the Roosevelt
candidacy makes is due to general uu-
certainty as to whether Hughes would
take the nomination, Hoosevell may
succeed in killing off Hughes, as he is
straining every nerve to do, but he can
succeed only with Hughes's tacit con-
sent. Hughes need not be killed off
unless he is willing to be killed off,
The Koosevelt campaign fund is
mobilized snd in action, but Hoose-
velt is still considerably farther from
the White House than the Germans
are from Parie. The Republicans who
are 80 vocilerously aounouunciog their
allegiance to the Colonel represent
sbout one vole apiece, provided they
do not play goit on Election Day and
forget to go to the polls. . Practically
none of thew are delegates to the Chi
cago convention, and most of them
could not carry their own election die
trict. A majority of them have ac-
quired their prominence through sp-
pointive oflices, never having been
elected to anything.
To the casual reader their devotion
to Roosevelt may peein impressive, but
not to the mavagers of the Kepublican
Party. Four years ago Hoosevelt had
the Old Guard scared, and if he had
bad a little more courage he might
have been nominated. But four years
ago Hoosevelt’s support came from Lhe
rank and file of the Hepublican Party.
His delegates were won in Lhe prima-
ries, Now his support comes row the
socially elect circles thai have Lo oppor-
tunity of a return to place and power
except through Roosevelt and froin
various corporation ioteresis which
confuse patriotism with dividends.
The rank and file are not beuiud him,
#8 every primary vole has shown.
The HRepublican managers Know
this, and they know thai Roosevelt
knows it. ‘Lhey are not the least LIL
frightened by him, There is no more
¢ hance of the Republican convention's
stampeding to Hoosevelt than to
Bryan. Whatever Roosevelt gels ai
Chicago, if he gets everything, will be
the result of a cold, hard, deliberate
bargain. The Worid has always be-
lieved that the Old Guard could make
& more advantageous deal with Roowe-
veit than with any other candidate.
He wants the vomination worse than
anybody else and would give more for
it. The only yuestion is whether he
would be .n aseei or a liability to the
party, and the common opinion is that
he would be a liability, Perhaps be”
fore June 7 he can convince the Ke
publican mansgers that he is worih
bidding in.
There will be very littie sentiment
about the Chicago convention, but tae
man who can take charge of events ls
Charles KE. Hughes, provided he
thinks that a Republican nomination
for President this year would not be a
permanent biot on his record and repu-
tation. One thing at least is certain.
Of ali the Republicans whoite names
have been meutioned in conaection
with the Presidency, Hughes is the
only one who could have the nomi-
nation by saylug that he would take it.
The committee on the Community
Plenio will meet in the Kvangelioal
church, Maturday evening at eight o’
clock, All members are urged 0 be
presents .

Boys, we will have to remove our
hats to Roy Grimes for catching the
largest trout ever caught in these
streams with rod and line, On las
Wednesday while flashing in the par-
rows a short way from his home be
hooked a California trout, Roy knew
what he had on his line for he says he
was after that lad for three years.
After playing the fish for some time
and trying to land him in his net
which waa too small to hold the trout,
the only thing to do was to give him
a battle with his bands, and this Roy
did in the deep water, He finally
landed him after the flab had bitten a
piece from his thumb, The trout was
hurried home and placed in a pond
where he may be seen any time. His
exact measurement was 26 inches,
