The President hav ing refused to allow hlrn to oDtinue en the Government payroll. Garfield is gotnr to try next for some elective office, and he does not care much what It la Recent reports from Ohio are that Oarfleid has his eye on two objective points: he covets t'-.e seat In the Sen ate now filled by Theodore E.

The Insurgents looked to Burton to array himself against the Administration and with the La FoIIette Insurants nf thm Senate, and they counted on htm t hetn turn Ohio against Taft. But they did not reckon with their man. Bartea Keep Ilia Balance. Senator Burton Is one of the most learned men In Congress. A deep and thorough student, a man of brains and who knows how to use and apply fcrsina Kenator Burton la not es sentially a politician. lie was poll tlclan enough, however, to retain a level head, and not be swept away by ao Infinitesimal minority of his party In Ohio, Instead of turning; Insurgent, ho supported the Taft Administration from the start. He supported reason able -progressive" measures. but turned his back on radical and freak progressive notions advanced by La raliette: he waa not a standpatter of the Foraker type: but he was not a progressive of the Garfield type. Therefore. Garfield la much vexed and has let It be known that he wants te succeed Burton- He says It is time Ohio had a "true progressive" la the Senate. It waa not Ions; ago that Oarfleid wanted to be Governor of Ohio. He found he eould not have the support of the NatloaaJ Administration for that office, so be decided to go It alone. Just as he Is "groins; It alone" after the Eenatorehlp. When the state con vention was held. Garfield went down with a few press agents, and a very few enthusiastic supporters. Intending; to carry the convention by storm. But Instead of stampeding; the delegates, he counted noase. found he bad Just seven followers upon whom he could rely, and rather than stay In to a show-down, he packed his baggage, took his few delegates and went home. Oarfleid X More Pepalar. Haa Garfield so grown in popularity In two years that ho can now hope to win the Senatorshlp over a man Ilka Burton? If so. news of his Increasing; popularity haa not leaked outside of Ohio. Aa a matter of fact. Garfield l as been doing- nothing: to Increase his mere noonlarltr. He has been shadow to Glfford Plnchot. and not an ever present shadow at that. Plnchot has said many things In the past year, and Garfield haa even neglected to chirp a feeble. "Me too." He has not been Identified with any political movement In Ohio; he has done noth ing to keep hlms:r In the limelight, sjid was almost unheard of for a year, until the recent Insurgent conference at Chicago, when he came to life and presented a platform on which La FoI Iette was boosted for the Presidential nomination. A state like Ohio can hardly be expected to name a Senator on such meager showing. And ac cording to Ohio politicians Jlmmle Garfield Is as much a Joke now as be was two years ago. It appears that Garfield has a better chance of being tlie Insurgent candi date for President than he has of be coming fnlted States Senator from Ohio. This may sound strange. In view of the Chicago indorsement of La FoIIette. but there Is a persistent rumor that I -a FoIIette Is going to sidestep between now and the time of holding the Republican convention next Summer, preferring to do this rather than go in and be defeated by Taft. La FoIIette believes destiny has marked him for the White House, but the date of his entry Is not yet known, even to himself. He is said to feel that If he can not land the nomination next year, and knows it when the con vention assembles, it will be better not to enter the race and be branded with one defeat that Is. It will be better In the future, for a candidate once de feated always labors under a handicap. Therefore. It Is reported. La FoIIette after a'lowlng his name to be conjured with for months, eventually will step aside and permit the insurrent ele ment to concentrate on some one else. In other words, he is willing some one else should be the goat, and Garfield Is the man selected. PKONE LICENSE IS LIFTED Salem Compromises With Company on 9500 Annually. SALEM. Or.. Jan. :.
