HAYS AND
TUTS man Hays will boar watching. Ho is "director
general of the. republican party, and his record thus
far lias been a marvel of skill and intelligence. "We doubt
if a national chairman has ever handled a difficult politi
cal situation .with more cleverness and tact, lie conies
from Indiana. And like most men from Indiana he isn't
much to look at, but he is a delight to read. His speeches
are uniformly good, his phrases clear and sound, his style
restrained but compelling. The man has brains, of coui'se,
but he has that rare accompaniment, common sense. At
the present writing he has his rival, Mr. Homer Oum
niingq, beaten several lozcn city blocks.. s
Mr. Cummings,' apparently, is a stock campaigner of
the old school. He is touring the , country at present
claiming everything for the democratic party from abaca
to zythum. Not oiilj did the iueome tax win tho war,but
the farm loan banks produced the bumper wheat crop.
Ail of which tickles the , radical partisans tremenduously,
but leaves the average , citizen nnmoved and scornful.
And it is the average citizen who elects presidents, and it
is the average citizen that Mr. Hayes is after.
Take the League of Nations, for example. Chairman
Cummings saw an opportunity in this. He challenged
Ins opponent on the issue for and against. If Brother
Hays had been less warr and discerning he nught have
been manuvered into the mdetensible position of opposing
any reorganization of the world on lines of peace. Hut
Mr. Hays, whatever his personal opinions concerning the
league may he, was not caught napping. He refused the
challenge and in .a brief but masterly "rejoinder, fired
back the truth namclv that
not a party issue, never should be a party issue, is a con
cern not of this country alone, but of the entire world,
and should be fought out on something broader than petty
and restricted party lines.
' " '
This is only one example of the republican chairman's
clear judgment and enlightened view point. He realizes
that the balance of power in any national election is not
hold by the hard shelled partisans on either side but by
the rank and file, the average citizen, who mav care con
siderably for one part- or the
ior the betterment and welfare of the country at large.
If this were not true the only way to ret a party
in power out of it, would be by
for a plague that would be
party lines.
les, this man Hays will bear watching. Unless he
suffers a sudden and unexpected reversal of form, the
republican party will have the advantage in the next
campaign of being under the
skillful and capable leaders,
fortune to possess.
HER, HPS SCALE
. TOLEDO, Ohio,- June 18. Jess
Willard today received word from
Steamboat Bill" Scott, a light heavy
weight, who has just returned from
France, expressing his willingness to
loin the champion's staff of sparring
partners immediately upon his dis
charge from the service at "Camp
Sherman. ' Scott formerly was a spr
rlng mate of Willard's. He returned
from France holding the champion
ship honors of the Sixth division. .
Admirers of Dempsey are surpris
ed over the weight of the challenger,
who tipped the scales yesterday at
201 pounds wearing only his trunks
and boxing shoes. None of them be
lieved Dempsey weighed within 10
pounds of that figure as they thought
he had reduced to his lowest possible
weight as a result of working hard
under the heat of a scorching sun.
The scales had been tested a dozen
times before Dempsey hopped on
them. The only- explanation of
Dempsey's astonishing increase in
weight is that he thrives on training,
that he has been permitted to eat
what he wishes and has been drink
ing considerable water.

CLAIM ATROCITIES
BY THE
PARIS, Tuesday, June 17. Frank
P. Walsh and Edward Dunne,
American representatives of the Irish
societies in the United States, have
laid before President Wilson further
evidence alleged just to have been
received as to atrocities in Ireland.
Some of the witnesses were American
citizens, it is said, and they say they
have "examined cells in which Irish
revolutionists' have been confined
and found fresh blood on the walls.
Mr. Walsh and Mr. Dunne request
President Wilson Immediately to lay
the additional facts before the peace
conference and urge a prompt hear
ing by an impartial tribunal. The
Irish delegates have received notice
from the secretary of the conference
that the resolution on the IrlBtt ques
tion passed by the United States sen
ate had been presented to the con
ference.- They have also been in
formed that their previous report on
atrocities has been forwarded to tho
state department in Washington for
transmission to congress.

So Big
And Yet So Small!,
Seen by itself, Swift & Company is
one of the largest manufacturers and
distributers of animal food products in
the country.
Seen in relation to the total food busi
ness of the world, its size diminishes' to
small proportions.
We handle only about 22 per cent of
the total output of the hundreds of pack
ing plants under federal inspection, and
only about 12 per cent of the total meat
supply of the nation. '
We handle only about 6 per cent of
the total quantity of butter, eggs, and poul
try sent to market in the United States.
-, N't
cent of the hides made into leather in
the United States.
Our soap factories make less than 10
per cent of the soap output of the nation. .
This is done in keen and open
competition with every concern handling
these products, and at a profit of a fraction
of a cent per pound.
In the meat packing industry there is
no one dominant concern handling a large
proportion of the output.
