HUGHES-BURTON
K2W Yorker For President;
Ohioan Running Mate.
HARMONY IS IN SIGHT
Platform to be Progressive Through
out, Justice to Endorse It and Bull
Moose Then Endorse Nominee.
Charles Evans Hughes for president.
For vice president, Theodortf E. Bur
ton, of Ohio, or William E. Borah, of
Idaho.
Roosevelt has only the slightest ol
outside chances in the Republican na
tional convention at Chicago.
No favorite son apparently has a
look-In.
Though Roosevelt people, speaking
their minds through George W. Per
kins, virtually gave up the ghost when
they said they would stand for either
Hughes or Roosevelt, but that the
stand of would have to be
made clear before they would ratify
his nomination. Immediately, a work
ing plan was prepared to meet the re
quirements of the Bull Moosers.
It is a plan that has been under
cover for days. To United States Sen
ator George Tener Oliver, of Pennsyl
vania, Is due the credit for having
solved it.
Perkins and other Progressives have
scrutinized it, and the colonel himself,
It is undestood, has passed upon it. It
Is so simple in Its reasonableness and
straightforwardness that the wondei
is no one had presented it before Sen
ator Olliver evolved It.
In brief, it provides that the Repub
lican convention shall speak for Jus
tice Hughes through its platform,
which will be approved by him. This
platform will be so broad, so progres
sive in its utterance, that the Pro
gressives can and will approve It with,
out qualification or reservation.
The Progressive national committee
-decided tq withhold nominating a can
didate in the Progressive convention
until next Saturday, awaiting the ac
tion of the Republican convention.
The decision of the committee fol
lowed a speech by Victor Murdock,
the chairman, in which he said he was
for Colonel Roosevelt's nomination and
would not be "for any non-committal
candidate at this time."
The national committee appointed a
special "steering committee," with
broad general powers, to treat with
Republican leaders and also carry on
a newspaper publicity campaign. The
committee consists of George W. Per
kins, of New York; Governor Hiram
Johnson, of California; Horace Wil
kinson, of New York; William Henry
Childs, of BrookJyn, N. Y„ and the
executive committee of the national
committee.
The executive committee, of which
Perkins Is chairman, presented the
plan to delay action upon nominating.
It was decided to warn all delegates
against leaving Chicago. The "steer
lng committee," It was said by Pro
gresslve leaders, will have discretion
to treat with Republican leaders or a
similar committee from the Republi
can national committee or convention
regarding possible joint action on a
nominee.
Senator Penrose made the definite
announcement that he would vote for
Mr. Knox on the first baillot, at least.
He expects most of his friends In the
Pennsylvania delegation will follow his
example.
Senator Penrose said he was un
able to discover the drift of sentiment
of the delegates.
"It Is a free and untrammelled con
vention with much open discussion ol
candidates," he said.
Knox votes from other states are
looked for on the early ballots.
Governor Brumbaugh conceded Sen
ator Penrose's selection as chairman
of the state delegation.

The Germans attacked the French

Vaux. In the vicinity of Douauniont
there was heavy artillery fighting. Un

In their repeated attacks on For'

The Germans' guns had been rela

they suddenly opened up the heavies'

from heavy horwltzcrs to trenc'i ill >r

"The British guns returned equal vol

British Admiralty Says Four Capital
Vessels of Teutons' Navy Were

Tbe German losses in tbe North
sea battle were greater than the
British "not merely relatively to
the strength of the two Heels, but ab
solutely," a statement Issued by the
British admiralty declares.
The admiralty asserts that eighteen
vessels wore Hist by the Germans.
The statement Reiterates that the
German accounts of the. Gorman lossch
are false, and that although the evi
dence is still incomplete, enough If
known to Justlly stntlng that the Ger
man losses were greater than the lirlt
lsb. There Is the strongest ground for
believing, says the statement, that the
German lossos Include two battleships,
two dreadnought battle cruisers of the
most powerful typo and two of the
latest light cruisers, in addition to one
small light cruiser, a submarine ami
nine destroyers.
Admiral Beatty fought the entire
German high seas fleet with his squad,
ron, exchanging shots at close range,
and unly the coming of night and a
heavy mist Just as the British battle
fleet arrived saved the Germans.
British naval experts gave tills opin
ion of tin* battle and praised the dar

Beatty in attacking such a powerful
enemy.

THE HORSE WILL DISAPPEAR^
This Is Prediotlen by Kansas Stata
Highway engineer.
That within ten years tho borae wfflj
practically disappear from the pablia)
highways of Kansas for both pleaanra
and bualness Is tbe prediction bjr W. tW
Oearhnrt, state blgbway engineer. Thai
horse, ho bolds, cannot compete wit*
either the auto or the motor track anyi
moro than the old freighter with hb*
ox teams* could with the Iron horsq
driven by steam, and It really looks M
though old Dobbin will soon hare fta
stay home on tbe farm with the cowaj
"These new methods of transport**
Hon require new and adequate system*
of highway construction and molnto*
nance," says Sir. Gearhart "The ays.
tem of earth roads which tbe coontlM
and townships of Kansas built np and
were maintaining during tbe last sis
years was probably tbe best snd Ott
tho largest scnlo the world had ever
seen, but the rains, snow and frost durt
lug tbe past year have given them tha
appearance now of European battle*
fields.
"Until recently many Kansana had
begun to believe properly graded am*
constantly dragged earth roada would
an* Mi r every purpose. However, It 14
now clearly evident that If the malm
roada, those highways radiating out
from the market center* and connect*
tng the cltle*, constituting about 10 ta
IS per cent of the total road
are to he mnlntalucd In the eastera
third of the state as 303 day hlghwsm
which will carry modern traffic at all ,
■eaaona It will be nece**ary to surface
them with more |ieriiinnent material
than puddled earth secured by draff)
glng the roads while they are wet" ; 1
CONVICTS AS ROAD BUILDERS.
Warden Zlmmer Reports Work of IflH
nois Man Excellent.
Fifty prisoner* nre working in and
around the new epileptic colony in Illi
nois this spring In grading and road
building.
Warden Zlmmer of the state penlten
tlary In a recent letter to the national
committee on prisons re|K>rts great auc»
cess in convict road work in Illinois,
The laws of that state require that
townships desiring to secure the *erv-
Iccs of convict* for road work must
make application and enter Into a con
tract with the Institution. J>.'o work
can lie done until su>h request has
been made and contract entered into.
The success of the Work, Warden
Zlrnmer states, depends upon the seleo*
Hon of the men for the work. Five
camps have already been worked In
Illinois aiid nil carried out without
friction or trouble of any sort. The
warden also emphasizes tbe importance
of selecting offl'-crs for the camp wh®
are capable of KtiiKrvlsing such • camp
and tun ing charge of the prisoners la
(he camp.
The national committee on prisoos*
agrees with Warden Zimmer that too
much stress cannot lie laid upon tho
selection of the men and the choice of
officers. The committee has brought
before the Society l"or Highway Engi
neering the opportunity for the road
engineer ill couvlet road work and the
need that engineers be »|>eclally trained _
for this work. Upon tho men In charge
of convict camps there Is heavy respdti-.
nihility, but to the right man success U
assured.
Birds. rtjfl
As a rule, the Scottish fishermen be
lleve that the common ship's barnacle
develops into a bird. How has this V
metamorphosis been so lons held t« |
be a fact, with no experience in Its fa- "
vor and all experience against It? It
Is so held not only In Scotland, but;
for Instance, in Jersey. It to not long •
since a Jersey parlor maid ran to het I
employer in much excitement with a "
barnacle In her hand. "Look, ma'am,"
she said; 'lt's off a ship, and it win !§
soon change to a goose!" Londos 4
