THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, and probably every other newspaper in America, is in receipt of a letter from 'the Leonard Wood Campaign Committee offering to fur-J nish "news" relative to the candidacy of General Leonard Wnnri for the nresidencv. as follows: i . . r j T (1) Weekly political news letter. (! Weekly press bulletin containing news of the Wood campaign. (1) Plates containing feature cuts of Wood. - (4) Two column Wood stories in plate 3 often as ccampaign war rants distribution. &) Cuts of Wood and any special servicce desired to promote his can didacy. This matter is furnished free to newspapers that will print it with the object of creating a sentiment favorable to Wood's candidacy. It is propaganda, designed to in fluence the unsuspecting public a stale trick of poll ticians to secure a semblancce of substance for their shadowy claims. News matter accompanying the offer describes growth of Wood sentiment and how the candidate has al ready captured various states for the national conven tion. By this it is meant that certain politicians have lined up to put Wod across as for the people, they have not been consulted, and the politicians are doing their choosing for them. In direct primary states, however, it hence the otfer HENS. I have a dosen silly hens I ooiigni to make High Cost look sick; and It .mild tnke a nowcrful lens to see Just here they do the trick.

This year the politicians are planning not only to name the nominees but to write the platform in advance. The republican platform is being construccted now, by a committee named by National Chairman Will H. Hays, so that all the convention will have to do is to go through the form of approving the platform written and candi date chosen in advance which seem j to mark the passing of that old American institution the party convention, The people have it in their power, however, to name the next president by forcing the hands of the politicians. A popular uprising in behalf of any one will insure his selection by one party or the other, or create a new party that will sweep both old parties to defeat for the only difference between them is that one has the off icces arid the other wants them. It is time the people exercised their rights.

All the avowed candidates names are printed, together with those who are mentioned but not candidates. Blank lines are left to write in your favor ite, if his name does not appear. The vote will be an index to popular sentiment exist ing three months before the primaries and five months before the convention. Between now and then, there will be more or less of a re-alignment. The straw ballot will be interesting as it will reflect public opinion 'before it has been crystalized by propagan da and partisanship while it is still in the making. So mark your choice and send the ballot in. LOVE aad MAPPED LIFE mi. tne noxea autnor- I Idah MSGlone Gibson THOHJIITS OF HOMR.
