TTho Now York commercial thus reviews tho political situatien: 'X't this dlstanco from tho national conventions of 1908 moat predlc 84l6ns ns to tholr outcomo nro undeniably hazardous. Nothing, howovor, seems moro apparent at this hour than tho nomina tions will ho determined moro by personality than by party policy. With tho Inchoate conditions of what might bo called Democratic poli cies and with tho divisions within tho Republican ranks, not only aB to 'tariff nttd rail road questions, but as to all tho other Issues of tho Roosovclt administration, tho division of tho pnrtlos on linos of policies Booms moro hopoloss than at any tlmo during tho prist year or two. THAT THE TIME IS RIPE FOR THE COMING FORWARD OF A SECOND MR. CLEVELAND TO ORGANIZE AND FOCUS THE JUST DEMANDS OF THE DEMOCRATS THERE CAN BE NO DOUBT. Thoro Is, howovor, no Mr. Clovolaml In night, and It looks very much ns If tho tlmo woro too brief to develop ono boforo tho calling of tho na tional convention. Undor Hioho clrcumstnucos It certainly looks ns If tho personality of Hlio unndldnto would dotormino tho Democratic nomination In tho direction ot Mr. Bryan. Not that ho has tho faith of Ills pnrty any moro tlinn years ngo, but now as thon ho soems to bo tho only nvallablo candidate Fow moil could afford to ho dofoatod tho third tlmo; Mr. Dry an cnn. Kvorythlng that coihob to Mr. Brynn now In tho wnyof political prom- luonco Is good advertising, and Mr. Hrynn Is sulllclontly n nowspapor ii mn to know tho valuo of that. Vlowod from a personal standpoint Mr. Bryan could not, wo nssume, to othorwlHo than to nccopt any nomination thnt comes his wny. Ah to tho Republican nomination tho .trend Hooina still to ho townrd Socrotnry Taft, as It has for several months. Hero and thoro ar.o found Republicans and Independent pnpcrsa advo cating tho fitness and clalniH of Governor Ilughos. Thoro aro, howovor, It hcoiiih to us. many ronsonB why this will not l)o the outcomo of tho nominating convention. In tho first placo, Governor Ilughos Is today of much moro uso to tho Tpeoplo In his present position than he could possibly be as ProBldont. It Is Now York than cannot spnrv Govornor Hughes, oven for tho Prosldoncy. On his (Kintluuanco In ofllco doponds so much In tho way of roform thnt to promote him thus promaturoly to any othor position would bo to set lmck thoHu roforms In a wny that neither tho Empire stnto nor tho Amorlouu people could afford. It lit ponalblo that a Mtrong movement mndo by tho socrot ouomlos of tho Kovornor within his own party, bnatul on tho desire to got him moro sure ly out of stnto polltlci wo havo not forgotten HOW MR. BOOSE YKII"H EN I CM II tS HIMTIIKO HIS NOMINATION FOR VICE PRICSl. DENT IN OIIDKH TO BREAK HIS INFU'ENCE IN NEW YORK STATE might possibly carry tho atnto of Now York for Hughes ns against Mr. Taft, but wo havo no idea that the states genornlly could bo brought to nominal!' uuybody hut tho popular Hocrotnry. It would ho hard to Imagluo a more ideal condition, from tho,hlghost Monuhlloun Htnudpolnt, than tho 1'resldoncy In tho hnuds of Mi Tnft and tclio governorship of thu Umpire ytnto In tho bunds of Mr. ilughos. Thoro U no doubt that such a condition would mean an ora of nation al and state pnlltlcH on higher pianos than for many years. Tho faot that Mr. Taft holds vIowh In conaonnnee with Domoorntlc Ideas of u decade or two ago on tho subject of tho tnrlrf would attrnct to him tho mippnrt or a largo and most lulluentlal Domoorntlo following. THAI' SUPPORT WILL NEVER FOLLOW MR. BRYAN; IT NEVER HAS POLM)WED HIM. Tho ItooHovolt policies havo glvun a special direction to active polltlos, and It Is without doubt tho desire of hosts of voters, regardless of party, that they should bo followed up; In othor words, that this admlslntra Hon should havo a rosuluary legatoe to bo depended upon to boo that tho frulUt of those policies aro roaptd and enjoyed by the American na tion. Mr. Roosevelt has stamped his Ideas too strongly upon the Amorlonn people for thorn to bo sntlstled with anything loss than a thorough trial of thorn. Under tho Presidency of Mr. Taft, and tho governorship of Mr. Ilughos, thoro can bo no question of thoso policies being tried out for Tholr entire worth. That such consideration will govorn, to n great extent, tho coming nom ination riooma to us most certain.

"Women have full beards In a few centuries? Tho Idea Is ridiculous. But I tell you what Is very probable. I am constrained to believe men will ho smooth-faced and absolutely beardless by that time." Such 13 tho prophecy, striking terror Into tho tonsorlal artists, mado by Prof. Trevor C. D. Klncald, pro fessor of zology at tho University of Washington, when asked what ho thought of tho statement mado by Prof. Samuel W. WUlIston, head of the department of palentology at Chicago university, to tho effect thai tho day will come whon womon will hnvo not only mustaches, but full beards as well,. Professor Wllllston was addressing a class of co-eds when ho mado tho astounding assertion. Tho only way tho Instructor could quiet tho girls wns Id telling them that tho fright ful reversion to tho hnlry ago would not comes for several centuries nt least. But he was serious In tho an nouncemont thnt tho tlmo would surely como. "Queer professors must bo at tho Rockefeller Institution," continued tho professor. "Only tho othor day wo heard tho ndvlco from tho same Institution that chlldron undor 10 years of ago should go naked, and now comes tho preposterous prophecy thnt womon will bo boarded. Notlco tho samo tendency? Tho ono wants us to mako our chlldron live lllco tho savages of hygono times nnd tho othor snys deterioration is In evitable, whether wo will or not. Wo used to hear that tho Chicago uni versity wns tho homo of tho higher criticism and tho propagator of evo lution. It looks like evolution back wards Just now. "Sponklng scientifically, tho ten dency Is Just tho opposite. Wo used to bo hairy, you know, lllco tho ani mals, but with evolution upwards we hnvo lost much of our hair, and wo nro going fnrthor and farther away from our primitive form. I can scnrcoly hollovo Professor Wlllls ton mndo tho statement attributed to him. Ho surely would not mako a statomont In no wny supportnblo and contradictory to tho manifest nnd in dlsputublo tendecy of tho race. It is on tho othor hand, a very sonslblo conclusion, rensonlng from evolution ary phonomonn, to sny that tho tlmo Is not far distant whon mon will havo no hair on tholr fnccs. "Tho process is at work oven now. Notlco the bald heads, In tho old days baldnoss wnB not so provnlont. I cannot say how long It will ho bo foro tho harbors aro put out of busi ness. Tho prosont crop will nil havo finished their last shave, how ovor, and tholr chlldron, too, will ho done with this world's strugglos. But tho tlmo will como undoubtedly whon hoards will no longer grow, nnd whon not oven bneholor professors can honBt of hirsute growth.
