Front or ftegolar Cerrfipottdent. The campaign will can tioas Ij begin in about a fortnight and both parties are getting ready for the fray. When the principal candidates b ore published their letters of ac ceptance the first guns will have been fired, and the fus- aillade will thereafter, get lively. Bath parties will un doubtedly open headquarters in , New . York ; City around Madison Square, with bran ches in this city whence the tons of partisan "literature" will be addressed and frauk ed. ; r The President will return to Washington about the end of , this month to gather bp some loose ends of unfin ished business At Sagamore Hill be, is, obtaining some rest in the midst ol busy days for the entire family) himself and Mrs. Roosevelt, the four boys and Miss, Ethel rise with the sun and goHo bed with the chickens. The. President hunts, and walks and rides and sleeps out-of-doors 6c casiorially, a n d boxes with the boys and plays golf and tennis. Fishing is t. 0 o slow for him. The ladies of the Cabinet are somewhat scattered. The Hitchcocks hre,ln New Hamp shire. Mrs. Sbaw and Mrs. Payno are enduring the. rig ors of a v Washington; July, and will probablt tarry into August. They manage to make life endurable by tak ing a week-end trip to Old Point Comfort or Virginia Bearh. Secretary Shaw, ae. coropanied by his daughters, left tTashingtoq Sunday for the Thousand Islands .and the New England resorts. Mrs Shaw and Mr;. Earl Shaw will remain in their,, Massa chusetts Avenue home.; Mrs. Metcalf still lingers in Cali fornia, where she has a de lightful home in Oakland. She will come here in December and resume life at the Arling ton, knowing we',1 the trials and tribulations of getting and keeping !good servants for housekeeping.'. Mrs,. Paul Morton and. her, daughter Pauline are spending July at "Arbor Lodge" . the band some Morton property ' near Nebraska city. Mrs. Morton Will take a house at the West end, . possessing that large private income which is rather necessary, to., social success in Washington. ! - The real status of Paul Morton, the new member of the Cabinet is yet to be deter mined.: His refusal to suc ceed Mr. Cortelypu .and the announcement, w h i c b be made when he was appointed Secretary of the Navy, that be would occupy the place only nine months, caused a shrugging of shoulders and n raising of brows in political circles. He still retains his position a President of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad, and is merely on a 9 months' leave of ab- sencvm Washington. The President's purpose in calling him to the position is inscru table for he knows absolute ly nothing of its duties,' and is not trying to learn any thing.; Indeed, Jhe could hot learn .the rudiments , in a year unless bis familiarity with p a r a i r i e schooners might be considered ; prepare tion. Of course the labors of a Cabinet officer can be, as they are in the case of Ditch cock, merely perfunctory and partormeti by hired aubordi nates. Rut the President ought not to be a party to such a definition and it looks now as if Mr. Morton took the position remembering t b at the administration might change in. 9 months, and that the impoitaut port folio , was carelessly tossed to him as a kind of political souvenir without the expect tation that he would do any work. ; The case of Charles Emory Smith was entirely similar. He was made Postmaster- General for his social and newspaper prestige when the President knew that; he took not the slightest, interest in his work and allowed it all to be d one by his bureau chiefs. It was too much .of a rjsk to run on the part of both. What a sorry, figure, indeed , has Charles Emory Smith cut since the revela tion of thas Po 6 t Office fraudsl 1; Republican newspapers are greatly ! afflicted I n their ininds in calling certain un complimentary language which Colt Bryan Is alleged to have uttered concerning Judge Parker previous to the St. Louis convention. They no doubt fear the dis paragemen t points to perm a nent alienation between these two gentlemen. They worry unnecessarily. Let them po sesa their souls in patience. Largo minds do not ' cherish grievances forever. If Jtbey did, what sort relation would exist between Piatt and 0 dell? Or between Spooner and La Follette? Or between Rooeevelt , ,aud , Grosvenor? Since the nomination of Judge Parker Col. Bryan has appeared only. in the role of a magnanimous and patriot ic statesman. Js Mr. Secretary Loeb large enough for this place? Even if be. conducted himself po litely and prudently in perem toiiiy refusing the interview with the President requested by the Miner's committee, whicn does not seem certain did he reverse the engine and take the bark .track dip lomatically? . The . next ,day the Miners telegraphed ask ing once more for an Inter view. Mr, Loeb jumped at the chance and exclaimed in reply "Many thauksjor your telegiaml" Why "ma n y tbankfc?" Why need the Pres ident emotionally express bis gratitude to men asking an. interview? It is not vir tually, saying "Yes; I was wrong yesterdav and you don't know how tickled I am to set myself right. Many thanks for the way outl" Is this the same. Mr. Loeb by the way who made the mess about the Lip ton dinner and who in the president's name accepted many presents and then declined a little silk flag made by a little girl? ' "Tbe BtrciiuooH ..lifh'v . fo' lowed, with might aud. main, , Strained nt a flag and swallowed a railroad train!" v Professor Cook of the Agri cultural Department reports from Texas that the red ant from Guatemala is attacking and destroying the cottou boll weevil in great shape and Justifying lively hopes of its future usefulness. BRUTALLY TORTURED. A case came to light that for per sistent and unmerciful torture has perhaps never been equaled: Joe Golobick of Colusa. Calif, writes. ' For 15 yeaas I endured insuffera ble pain from rheumatism and noth ng relieved me though Lined every thing known. I came rcross Elec tric Bitters and it's the greatest medieine on earth f0r that trouble. A few bottles o it completely reliev ed and cured me." Just as good for liver and kidney troubles and general debility. Satisfaction guar anteed by M. B. Blacffburn. A special from the Esoph ustothe New York World gives this cheering news; "The congratulatory letters come in increasing, volume, and the remarkable .thing about them is the large pro portion which come from Re publicans,. Mr. Roosevelt would be surprised, did he know the names of some of the signers of these letters. They indicate a large vote for Judge Parker from con servative, peace loying Re publicans. Many ot the writ era would not object to the use of their names, but Judge Parker thought it better for obvious reasons, not to give their names for publication." News & Obserjer, , M. B. BLACKBURN asks the readers of this paper who are suffering with indigestion ordys pepsia to call on him at once and get a bottle ot Kodol Dyspepsia cure if you knew the value of this reme dy as e know it, you would not suffer another day. , Kodol Dyspep sia cure is,, thorough digestant and tissue-building tonic as well.

Baltimore Sun ' ' " " . , 's Judge Parker is put for ward by his party as the an tithesis of the present Presi dent of the United Stares, who is also the nominee of his party tor the term begin ning Mmcb . 4, 1 9Uo. Mr, Roosevelt, it is alleged by his political opponents is ag gressive and impetuous to the point of rashness. On the other hand, Judge Park er is said to be cautious and conservative and in all mat ters, guided by reason and judgement. v Mr. Rooseyelt, it is alleged is swayed by im pulse. The Democratic nom inee, it is claimed by his sup porters, . has! pre-eminently the judicial spirit, and would make a truly judicial Magis trate. Mr. Roosevelt's op ponents allege that, he has the characteristics of the militarist a n d absolutist. fudge Parker they say, would be guided solely by the constitution, He is not a man. of war, but a roan of peace. While he would up hold the nation's honor and iusist upon the recognition of its rights he would hever hunt for trouble. In the De mocratic view the contrast between the candidates for the presidency, will operate in favor of the man who stands for Jcool judgement, reverence for theconstitution fraternal feeling between North andSouth, friendly re lation with all powers of the world, no policy of adveu turein Asia, but develop ment of.the nation's domes tic resources, President Roosevelt has a distinct advantage over Judge . Parker in that his views upon every question of national policy are well known. Whatever may be said of Mr. Roosevelt's Im pulsiveness the fact remains that he has many elements of strength regardlessiof th policies with which he is iden titled. He is young, vigor ous, plain-spoken He has proved his masserful quality by controlling the ablest pol tticians of his party and com pellingtbem to give biro a unanimous nomination, His virility is not displeasing to a great number of Americans certainly not to many of the young men of the nation: That he will poll the strength of his party is hardly to be doubted. Even if some of the Republican politicians d o not .like him, as has been in timated because of his vigor ous methods of dealing with them, it is not to b assumed that . they will be disloyal to him on election day. Self in terest will keep them in their line . The election next Nov. will be decided not by the votes of strict partisans, but by ballots of men who have the courage and discrimination to vote independently. Thest men are not found in the camp of erery , party, but they hold the balance of pow er between the pai ties. ' Mr. Cleveland owed his election in 1884 and again in 1892 to the supoort of indpendent voters in doubtful States. The Deiuorrati'; party, with a candidate of Judge Park er's ability and conservatism may appeal now .with a bet ter chance o! succes to the independent voter than at any time since 1892. It baa now, what it baa not had .in 12 year 8 a possibility of win ning. So long as the Demo era tic party was controlled by its most radical elements there was no hope of estab lishing an effective. opposi tion to the majority party. Without such an opposition no restraints could be im posed upon the party in pow er. The Democracy is now a foe with which the Republi can party must reckon.
