PROGRESSIVES FOR WILSON.
Isadore Jacobs, a prominent busi
ness man who is leading the Inde
pendent movement in California, has
sent a communication to Woodrow
Wilson Independent League, 280
Madison Avenue, New York, in which
he says that the non-partisan move
ment is just as strong in the northern
part of California as in the southern
end of the state.
"Each day," said Mr. Jacobs, "we
are getting letters from old time
Republicans and Progressives assert
ing that they will work and Vote for
Wilson and that it is their purpose
to attend the conference which is to
be held in San Francisco, August 5,
and whoop it up in true western style.
Mr. Jacobs says the majority of the
Progressives in' California will be for
President Wilson. As an indication of
the type of busness men who are
heading the Wilson Progressive
movement in California, the following
is quoted from Mr. Jacob's message:
"A permanent Progressive organi
zation has been effected in' San Fran
cisco. Its officers are:
President, Joseph S. Thompson,
president of the Pacific Electric com
pany, of San Francisco; secretary, L.
A. Ireland, of the Mysell-Rollins Co.;
Eugene Smith, president of the Mon
arch Oil Company, and of the Eugene
Smith Company, is a member of the
executive committee, and is out in the
state actively organizing Progressives
to work for Mr. Wilson. The move
ment is being financed in California
by local contributions."
CRITICISM OLD GAME.
: Militarist attacks upon President
Wilson's foreign policy have elicited
the following anecdote as a parallel,
from a correspondent in "The New
Republic.
General Palmer, who records the
story, was talking to President Lin
coln at the White House in 1865:
"I said: 'Mr. Lincoln, if I had
known at Chicago that this great re
bellion was to occur, I would not have
consented to go to a one-horse town
like Springfield, and take a one-horse
lawyer, and make him president"
Mr. Lincoln pushed the barber from
him, turned the chair, and said in an
excited manner: 'Neither would I,
Palmer. If we had a great man for
the presidency, one who had an in
flexible policy and stuck to it, this
rebellion would have succeeded, and
the Southern Confederancy would
have been established. All that I have
done is, that I have striven to do my
duty today, with the hope that when
. tomorrow comes, I will be ready for
it!" - ,.
PRESIDENTIAL BETTING.
From the New York Morning Tel
egraph (Ind.): : Frenzied efforts at
retrenchment are being made by per
sons in Wall Street who, during the
past several days have been betting
on Hughes for the presidency. What
causes this trend is not definitely
known.'
Former Hughes backers yesterday
were striving in vain to place their
money on Wilson, asking 2 to 1, he
odds they gave themselves when on
the other side of the fence. Evidently
Hughes is going back, for Wall street
sentiment is a barometer by which
elections may be gauged.
On paper Hughes is still the favor
ite but only on paper. At odds of 6
to 5, it is virtually impossible to place
money on him.
Broker McQuadc, a curb operator,
has $25,000 he would like to bet on
Wilson at odds of 6 to 5, but the
Republicans are not in betting mood.
HERE'S ONE.
Will Mr. Hughes explain, if Amer
ican prosperity is a war munition pro
duct, why bank deposits in North Da
kota and South . Dakota since 1912
have grown 70 per cent, while Dela
. ware, where the DuPont powder
work are located, it the only state in
the Union showing a decrease of bank
deposits in the past four years.

MISFITS
Those greasers down on the border
will always be pestiferous, what the
world calls "bad eggs."
No circus that has ever been in Al
bany was as well advertised as the
Birth of a Nation, to be here' Aug.
6. 7, and 8.
Accident or crime, that big New
York explosion was a terrific affair, a
foretaste of what real war is.
So far as the big munition makers
are concerned they do not have the
sympathy of the masses very much
anyway, as there is a strong sentiment
that they are corralling a good deal
of the money of the world, and a lit
tle thing like a few millions will hard
ly be felt.
The following poetry by Jerry
Owen in Chapman's The Voter, jin
gles so pleasantly we make it fit
among our misfits:
Waste Paper Day disclosed car-lots
- Of volumes old and musty,
And left a throng of boys and girls
And firemen tired and dusty.
A day like this in Washington
Would clean P. Wilson's attic,
At seven bones
A ton, for tomes
And letters diplomatic. .. .
While folks are dying over east
From solar ministrations.
The coast berates old Fluvius
' For constant visitations.
The juice still trickles from our skies
In spite of sunsets burnished.
And picnic hope
Is dished by dope
The weather bureau furnished.
Judge Morrow held the two quart law
To be a violation
Of Constitution edicts of
This great and peerless nation.
Some prospect therefore still remains
For cocktails with the dinner,
And beer and stout
' To give us gout
And make our check book thinner.
Our business men turn sluggishly "
To military training ;
The discipline of camp and field
Apparently disdaining.
The threats of war that glamored so
A month ago are dwindling,
And patriotic fire
: Seems to require
Another dose of kindling.
Sir Louis Hill, our candid friend.
Says slumber's chain enfolds us,
And for a catalog of sins
Relentlessly he scolds' us. -Some
day old Oregon will heed
Big Ben's awakening tinkle,
And from her deep
Unsnoring sleep
Arise, like Rip Van Winkle.
