(Hy Qilson flnnlner.)
WASHINGTON, April art. The
)iominnti(iii of flovemor llirnm John
Hon of Cnlifoniia for irrMilrnt, with
Clifford Pinchot an his running unite
ns rnndidnti'S of the prorossivo
jKirty, is sorintisly talked ly tho pro-Un-ssive
tnniingt'rs who nre wnteliinj:
tlie mnncuviTS of Ituot, HauiM, Pen
rose, Smoot niul the stnhilpnt rcjiub
Heniin. A limn who rropiilly has
tnlkeil with Vii'tor MiinWk, ehnir
innn of tho progrevrive national com
mit it, mlniitH tlint thu alioxo stijjjjos
tion is out' of tline unilor ponsidcr
ntion. ArronliiiL' Jo this plnn, the
progressive party convention would
bn held before tlie.repuhlieiin iintion
nl convention.
Have ilic Wlilp Hand
If tho republicans itceidpd to put
up n candidate satisfactory to llno-e-veil
nnd the progressive lenders n
mnn like N'orris, Cummins or Humli
tlie pnKrcssive support could cnHily
be turned to the republican candi
date; Johnxnn nnd Pinchot withdraw
ing from the rnce. On the other hand,
if the republican managers jM'rsistcd
in going forward with tho plan to
nnme n man of the Root orTnft type,
the progressives would hnve n ticket
In the field nnd would he nble, by
voting1 their strength, to insure the
certain defeat of the republican can
didate. Iji the 302 election President Wil
pou's popular vote was 0720:1,010:
Itooscvelt'K vote wa 4,lllt0":
Tnft's wn :i.484t0."U; while Debs
polled approximately 1,000,000 votes.
In the congrcs-ionnl elections Inst
November the p'rength of the pro
gicssive party hud dwindled to np
provimnlely j.wflO.OOO votes.
WollM ItC-clcCt WIlMllt
These voters mny be regarded n?
"irreconilnbles," ns men who prefer
to vote their political convictions even
when they know that they tiro prnc
ticnlly bound to lose. It is fnir to
nssiimc thnt Johnson and Pinchot
could poll nt least this number of
votes in n presidential contest. If
this million nnd n half be subtracted
from the progressive party vote in
IwTJ, it leaves :t,48 1.O.'iO voters who
might return to the republican ranks,
nnd Wilson would still be elected bv
n plurality of 188,.'."0, even if he did
not get a Single vote tunic, than lit
polled in 1012.
In other words, the jnogrcssives
feel thnt they have a vteo power on
the republican candidate. Thoy will
not be able to elect their mnn. but
they can again defeat a i dictionary
republican.

The Xnmpn, Idaho, board of edu
cation has released Profc-sor N
Meddo llillis from his three-tear
contract as citv superintendent n
order that lie may accept the oiler
biadc him by Medford for n smulni
position. Speaking of the mattci,
the Xnmpn I.cader-llernld sny:
"Piofessor V. Meldo llillis, super
iuteudeiit of the public chools of this
city the past three years, will -evei
his connection with the local schools
nt the close of the present term ti
accept the superiuteudency of the
schools of Medford. Or. Mr. llillis'
resignation was accepted bv the board
of trustees nt the regular meeting
Monday night, tit which time the en
tire corps of. instructors for next
year's work was selected.
"Mis contract with the board cnlVd
for two yenr mote service, but ir
view of the excellent offer he had re
reived from the Oregon citv the board
felt that it would be an injtis ice to
Mr. llillis to insist on his remaining
hero and accordingly released hint
from tho obligations of his three-year
agreement. The action was not
taken, however, without much regret
on the iart of the trustees, for the
suiHTintciidpnt during the past three
years has brought tho Nnmpa schools
to a high standard of efficiency and
his work has been highly satisfactory
in every reswet.
"Mr. llillis will not leave for Ore
gon until about August 1, ns he will
lie one of the instructors in the sum
mer normal school. He is president
of the State Teachers' association
nnd the State Athletic nvocintion.
both of which honors his rcmowil

The robbery of tho Statu bank of
Ilogito Hiver at Hoguo Iltver last
Thursday uftciuooit is still a mys
tery, nnd no nearer solution. Tho
bandit or bandits, us far as the
county and city authorities arc con
ccrncd, have uiude good their cseaiK'.
It now develops that Cashier Itosser
was struck u heavy blow over the
bend, apparently from behind, which
strengthens the theory that two men
were concerned in the crimp. Ilossnr's
hands were also tied behind him. The
Pittkcrton detective agency, rcpre
seutntives of the agency insuring tho
hunk against loss, will tako chargu of
tho case. This means n world-wide
limit for tho crooks, if necessary to
elfcfjt their cujiturc.
