Both of theso jurists ar candidates ' whom the Governor has indorsed nod neither. It Is known, is in good favor ' with the Vares. 1 This situation is regarded as so seri- ''ous that there is talk of a break be tween the Vares and the Governor, nn Tent which would have marked effect on state politics and the campaign of next year, to say nothing of the effect on the tltapcil of stiito patronage. Varo Attitude Not Shown Sample ballots distributed to Vare workers contained no marks opposite the names of candidates for the judici ary. Whatever the real Vare attitude is, therefore, may not be disclosed until secret orders are given effect on pri mary day. On the other hand, the sample bal ' lota distributed by the Republican Al liance, which is supporting Congress- man Moore are marked in fmor of Judges MeCullen and Uendersou. William C. 'Wilson, a fox-hunting friend of John II. K. Scott, is alleged to be tho real Vare choice for the seat now held by Judge Henderson. Judge Eugene C. Bonniwell. of the Municipal Court,- is spoken of in the same way for the seat now held by Judge Mc- Cullen, In Court of Common Pleas , No. 4. In Mine quarters there is a sugges tion that the Vare leaders are maneu vering with these candidates for the judiciary in the hope of winning Gov ernor Sproul to nn indorsement of Judge Patterson. The Governor, however, has an nounced that he will take no hand in the mayoralty situation iu this city, and that lie would look with disfavor on attempts to "juggle with the ju diciary." In this connection. Governor Sproul's denunciation of contractor-nilc in Del aware county did cot plens-c the Vare workers. They thought it struck too near home The fact that sample ballots for Vare 4 workers were not marked, as to the r candidates for the judiciary, was taken 'to mean that the Vares have been forced to consider the opposition of 'ward leaders favoring Judge Patter son who will not oppose the Governor's elections for the judiciary.

Sept. 13. The result of the by-electiou of Widnes, Lancaster, in which Arthur 'Henderson, the labor leader, was elected to the House of Commons, is considered a severe blow to the coalition government and hus revived speculation as to, the immi nence of another general election. The virtually unanimous vote of the Trades Inion Congress at Olnsgow for the nationalization of mines and the vote on the subject of withdrawing British troops from Russia are re- garded as evidence of a very determined 1 1 attitude on the part of labor against the government. j It is pointed out that there are sus picions as to the government's inten tions concerning Russia nnd conscrip tion and that the Glasgow congress de- , clined clearly to condemn the policy of direct action, but only strategically t sidetracked the decision. Added to difficulties in the field of labor is the Irish question which seems impossible for the coalition government to satisfactorily solve. On nil sides the consensus of opinion inclines to the view that another appeal to the coun try cannot be long delayed. Arthur Henderson, in an interview, said his victory was "an emphatic con demnation of the coalition govern ment's policy and of the cynical politi cal compromise upon which the govern ment rests." "I believe," be continued, "that the origin of the demand for a policy of direct action lies in the fact that the t present parliament is dominated by re actionary Influences. This has involved ' the coontry in proceedings which are the negation of democracy. , "It is shown in developments iu Russia, Hungary nnd near home, in I Ireland where the situation ijs obviously1 grave."
