od heyond that In which a new sena-tor must bo selected as Senator
Foraker's successor will bo chosen in 1908, though his term will not ex
pire until March 4, 1900.
Senator Fornkor was 01 years old last July, and If elected to succeed
himself would only ho 70 years of nge at tho expiration of that term.
Therefore, "age" will not deter his re-election, though politics may.

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.
"Now, oven supposing there woro
a tondoncy for womon to grow
boards, the law of natural selection
would kill tho tondoncy. Mon don't
Uko hairy-faced womon. I know I
don't. Thoy simply could not got
mnrrlod and the hairy-faced womon
would Boon dlo off. That's the way
sexual selection has always worked,
and it is still in operation.
