Hughes. However, if the gen
erui atutuue of Colonel Koose
eit does not furnish a fair indt
caton ot a decided hankering in
that direction then .the old
saw about tne straws showing
which way the w ind blows is not
worth a hllip. Roosevelt may not

active sense »but few will hazard
the opinion that he will not take

it is naru to conceive that the
_->.onels constant thunders, the
oocia of invective and denuncia
tion, tile constant inclination to
t ip tilings up the back generally,
are wholly impersonal. Neither
these nor the palpable effort to
assume the role of Sir Oracle on
every possible occasion suggest
that lie is animated solely by an
overwhelming desire to lead the
country into the light. The
Roosevelt utterances are sugges
tive of nothing if not that he is
out for publicity and intends to
get it if he has to tear the ad
ministration to shreds and slivers
to accomplish his object. It is
hard to believe that such furious
efforts have other intent than to
show the country who had ought
to be “it.”
The politically wise have long
ago come to the conclusion that
Roosevelt, fearing the band wa
gon might not come his way, has
decided to fix up a little chariot
of his own which may be con
veniently hitched to the tail of
the G. O. P. elephant should oc
casion allow.
If this is so things are assured
ly working right into his hand
as it is daily growing more man
ifest that his chances of secur
ing the nomination are very
nearly if not quite as good as
those of the others candidates,
Hughes alone excepted.
Hughes, is, of course, the fa
vorite son but signs are not
wanting that the republicans are
tlecidely uncertain concerning
who should be second choice in
the event that the enigmatical
one refuse to accept the honor of
becoming the G. O. P. standard
bearer. In this indecision lays

the progressive influence at his
beck, Roosevelt could come very
close to nominatiion. At any
rate it apears at this stage of the
game fits chances would equal
those of the others.

NEXT OFFENSIVE
GREATEST
OF WAR
^\AK1S—Although no official
information is ava^^
newspaper circles tnat tne confer
ence iui prominent repiesenta
tives ot tne allies held Here sev
eral days ago was tor tile pur
pose 01 making arrangements tor
a giant ottensive on tne part of
allied troops. Just where tne at
tack will be made, if the conclu
sions of the newspaper men are
correct, is not stated, but it is
thought that an attempt will be
matie to drive the Germans back
all along the western battlefront.
Troops of all of the allied na
tions available will be used in
the attack, the general report be
ing to the effect that Italy will
bring the flower of her army to
I'rance for that purpose, al
though a formal declaration of
war has never passed between
Germany and Italy.
It is also reported here that the
Germans are preparing for an
other giant offensive somewhere
on the western front. It is be
lieved, however, that the report
is regarding the new attack be
ing made at Verdun by the Ger
man forces.
But at any rate it is the con
sensus of opinion here among
those familiar with general cir
^^stances^^ha^^^noinatter
which side takes the offensive,
the next struggle will he the
fiercest of the war.
