HEW REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CHAIR.MAN
William R. Willcox former cliairmnn of the public service commission for the
First New York state district (which embraces New York City), has been ueni
e d as as cliairmnn of the republican committee to direct the campaign. Air.
"Willcox was the personal choice of Air. Hughes, and there was a report that
tbme'stnmp of approval had been put upon him by Colonel Roosevelt. Mr.
Hughes, it is understood, wanted .Mr. Wilcox because he had known Mm for
years ami had implicit faith in his judgment. Willcox was appointed by Ungu
es as chairman of the public service c mmission when Hughes was governor,
nd they have been close friends. Will cox has the added advantage of having
nerved two and one half by appointment of Colonel Koosevclt as postmnster
f New York. Of late he has practiced law and has not been closely affili
ated with politics, and, like Mr. Hughes, did not participate actively in the cam
paign of 1912.

I'etrogiad, June 17 (By . mail)
"Has the abolition of Vodka done any
real good in Russia ."
I put this question today to Nicholas
Tchaykovsky, member or the Central
Co-operative committee of I'etrograd
as he sat in front of his desk at com
mittee headquarters. Tried in IH07 as
a revolutionist ami acquitted he is now
doing his bit for Russia. His seusa-
tive face, remindful of portraits of
Ijouglellow, surrounded as it is by
snowy beard inid lutir, became very
eager.
"Done any good!" Tie echoed, "It
has worked wonders. For one thing
it gives russia a sober peasantry and
a sobe'r peasantry means almost dou.le
working capacity. And over wl per
cent, of the Kussin population 1 U,
OOO.IIUO souls are peasants. It means
better farms, bigger crops, more mon
ey, better living conditions in homes,
better fed children and consequently
more rapid advance in schools, liette
children makes better men.
"it means a more progressive, more
dependable, richer Russian peasantry.
It means all that and more hcsulcs.

Since Itllu Tclinvkovsky has been
working as a member of the central co
operative committee, helping co-operative
societies get started and is so
happy nt the job that his face positive-
beams.
'We have nlwavs fought drink,"
he told me, "but when vodka was pro
hibited our committee asked: 'What
are you going to give the people instead?'
'Yon know our villages are few and
far between. Our rural districts are
lonelv. Voilkn was a curse but it was
also a diversion, which was why it got
such a hold on liussia.
no our thousands of rural co-oper
ative societies all over the empire got
busv. We organized diversions to keep
the peasants and villagers from iniss

Most of our stores, offices, banks
and warehouses are two storied build
ings. On the ground floor business is
transacted. On the floor above are
halls. These we turned into theatres,

places where folks could come for di

Mil the meantime peasants have
more inonev than thev ever saw bo-
lore.
'And despite the war our co-oper
ative societies are growing at a won-
lerful rato.
"In one district alone the number
of co-operative unions has grown since

only four yea old and despite the
wnr we did a $140,000,000 business in

"The Siberian societies have their

Siberia alone has furnished the army
with 31,000,000 pounds of butter, with
thousands of tons or hay, with lard,

seven million dollars worth.

has been to make for a prosperous

the hope of the conference was the de

Mexican people don't want to tight Am

ans don t want to tight the .Mexicnns,'
he said. "But we know that if the Am
