In their favor.

'A
AS
(By Frederick M. Kerby).
DETROIT, Mich., Aug. 13. It be
gins to look as If the only question
remaining in the senatorial race In
Michigan, Is whether Henry Ford
prefers to be elected as a democrat
or a republican.
It is true that the primary election
has not yet been held It occurs Aug.
27; as it is equally true that there
are four aspiring candidates, for the
nomination: and of course the elec
tion won't be held until November;
but the election may, after all, be a
mere formality.
This is due to a most unusual sit
uation, as amusing as it Is Interest
ing.
There aro three candidates in the
republican primaries, of whom Henry
Ford Is one. The other two are Tru
man II. Newberry, former assistant
secrotary of the navy, of Crosse
Pointe, and ex-Governor Chas S. Os
born, of Sault Ste. Marie.
There are two candidates In the
democratic primary, of whom Henry-
Ford Is one; the other being James
W. Helme of Adrian.
On Both Tickets
Henry Ford is thus on both pri
mary tickets, having been nominated
by petitions front members of both
parties.
The Michigan republicans of the
old-line persuasion, are frothing at
the mouth over the "trick," as they
call It, played by the democrats In
getting President Wilson to ask Ford
to run for the senatorship. It was
Judge William F. Connolly of De
troit, democratic national committee
man, who went to Washington and
saw President Wilson, and is gener
ally credited with showing the presi
dent the advantage of endorsing
Ford.
The state of Michigan is normally
republican. In 1916 It cast 336,000
votes for Hughes for president, to
2$6,000 for Woodrow Wilson.
Politics Won't Count'
But nobody In Michigan except
the politicians Is thinking politics
now. Nobody looks on Henry Ford
as a politician, and nobody believes
he is going to run for the senate for
political reasons. ,
It Is expected that about 100,000
votes will be cast, in the democratic
primary; and perhaps 150,000 In the
republican. Ford's friends believe he
will be nominated on both tickets.
Tho law says a man nominated on
two tickets must choose within five
days the ticket upon which he pre
fers to run, or be placed on the ticket
which gave him the greatest number
of votes. Another provision says the
state committee of a party cannot fill
a vacancy on a ticket except when
the candidate dies or leaves the state.
If Ford Is nominated on both tickets,
therefore and Is withdrawn from one
hy operation of the law, the vacancy
on tho other ticket cannot be filled,
and he will be the only candidate in
the field.
l-'nrd iin Independent
Ford himself is Independent In
politics. He has twice supportod
Woodrow Wilson for president: but
has voted for men of both political
parties In the past. He seems to
have the knack of doing the thing
that adds lo his own reputation.
To Innuendoes about the "Peace
Ship," the average citizen Is Inclined
to say that everybody must have his
peculiarities, and that was Ford s.
"If Woodrow Wilson thinks Henry
Ford is doing his bit In war work,
I guess he ought lo know."

IN 1917 AWAKES,
TO LIFE IN .1918
LONDON, Aug. 13. Bagdad,
March, 1917 a city dead to the
world, governed by the bribe-gathering
Turks and their store-keeping
German advisers, a link In the Hun
dream of world domination thru the
Berlin-to-Bagdud railway.
Bagdad, July, 1918 a city alive
with a Btream of humanity passing
thru Its gates, its disease centers
practically eliminated, its people
happy and content under the rule of
its deliverers. i
This Is the result of a little over a
year's occupation of Bagdad by the
British forces.
When the city was captured by tho
British on March 11, 1917, the mili
tary authorities found a community
infested with contagious diseases,
with an inadequate water supply, the
people themselves lukewarm lit the
Interest of the British for their own
welfare.
AH this has been changed within
the last year. A police force has
been orgunlzed, also a fire brigade. -The
water supply has been extend
ed. Electric street lights have been
installed. Schools have been erected
and mosques have been repaired. The
streets afe flushed daily, and sani
tary squads are making it a healthy
town to live in. Markets have been
opened, assuring a continual supply
of food.
And most of nil, the community's
attitude toward the British has
changed to that of good will and
trust. They aro co-operating in all
civic works, and openly express their
preference to the rule of their deliv
erers, rather than go back td Turkish
misrule.
What has been accomplished In
Bagdad is being accomplished in the
other cities In the bands of the allied
forces. They are making , friends of
the population and incidentally ring
ing down the curtain on Germany's
hopes to control Mesopotamia after
the war.

CRATER LAKE ROAD
(Washington Dispntch In Portland
Journal).
Maintenance of the Jackson coun
ty and Anna creek section of the
road between Medford and , Crater
Lake national park In a passable and
safe condition during the war, with
a preferred status at the end of the
war for completion of the cooperative
project, is the plan agreed upon by-
representatives of the forest and nat
ional park services.
From William L. Hall, acting for
ester, Senator McNary has received
a letter setting forth file policy decid
ed on. The road to Crater lake, It is
explained, is similar In class to a
number of others which are primar
ily for recreation and tourist travel,
and not within tho line of necessary
road work which Is being authorized
by the department of agriculture. As
this project affected the development
of a national park, the forest service
asked for the view of Secretary Lane
of the interior department, who has
the parks under his jurisdiction, and
Mr. Hall thus, states the situation:
Present Tinlo Inopportune
"The acting secretary of the inter
ior replied that he fully concurred
with the view of the secretary of ag
riculture that It would be Inadvisable
to proceed with the development of I
the project at this time, but express
ed the hope that the project would be
entitled to first consideration upon
tiie restoration of peace.
"The acting secretary further stat
ed that there exists groat need for
maintenance work on the project and
expresed the hope that thru co-operation
between the counties of Jackson
and Klamath, the forest service and
the local national park authorities
some arrangement might be made to
keep the entire parkway to and thru
the park in a passable and safe con
dition until the cooperative improve
ment project can bo undertaken at
the end of the war.
. Suggestion Is Approved
"In reply the. acting secretary of
agriculture stated that the sugges
tion relative to doing maintenance
work during tho war appeared excel
lent and that the district forester at
Portland had been instructed to con
fer with the county officials and the
local park authorities for the purpose
of working out a plan for doing such
work on the rond as is necessary to
keep it In a passable and safe condi
tion. "No Information has been received
Tomorrow and Wednesday
Virginia
relative to the working out of this
agreement, but there seems to be no
renBon to doubt that adequate provis
ion will be made for the maintenance
of the road during the present emergency."
