He can take a stand alone Pennsylvania avenue and collect a fine lot of fees dally from anxious people who would like to consult htm. lie would be occupied night and day from now to election and perhaps afterward. The future of the Republican party Is being dlscuwed among political leaders more and more as the end of the cam paign approaches. This Is a phase of the political situation that Is really "'V.'.". ,hB Politicians and students of politics more concern and more worry than the fata of one candidate or the other. Deiertiom Feared. , Scarcely any two people agree on what Is going to be the future of the Republican party. It Is pretty generally admitted that If It should come out third In the voting In November It would be sadly shaken and It would be extremely difficult to keep It together. A comparatively small proportion of de. voted members of the party would stick to It and go down with tho ship. But , the tendency will be for men to desert If t should come out of the election In third place . The Bull Moose movement. It It proves stronger than the Republican party In the voting In November, la bound to be given a powerful Impetus. It will be extremely difficult to keep such progressive men as have thus far remained In tho Tinnuhiimn n.riv awn. .from it. Moreover, It will appeal pow. erfully to many Democrats. , .. c?""ot be questioned that If the Bull Moose vote Is greater than the Republican vote, the leaders xt the Progressive party will go about tho uuwucsa oi organizing ror 1816, organ ising for the ConsTes'.lonal camnalim of 19H, and organizing for control of in jeEiaiaiures or mates and for the nactmeht of Progressive legislation with n fervor that will have a coun trywlde Influence. This Is realized by many reactionaries, and Is a potent reason why reaction ary Influences nre working hard to throw the Bull Moose to the place of third In the race Place Holders Worried. The defeat of the Republican party, it has to be remembered, will throw out of office thousands of Republicans of long atandlng, many of whom havo been devoted to the party for the sako of Jobs. One out of these Jobs their enthusiasm will wane. This Is a strong reason why the Re publican party will find Itself gravely weakened by defeat and weakened to a degree that Is not exactly registered by the results of the balloting. In other words, the Republican party. If defeated, will find that It has a lot of members who stand ready to take to the Ufeboats when they think the ship In danger of sinking. It will be a hard thing to reorganise the Republican party and put It on an HfTectlvo fighting basts for 1914 or 1916 If It suffers a bad drubbing at the polls. Unlike the Democratic party. It has not been through long years of the school ing of defeat. Democrats as Conservative!. A lot of Intelligent political oplnlon here, opinion of the Impartial sort, try ing to read the political future Impar tially, believes Jt likely that. If the Re publicans fall to third place this year the party will ko out of existence, that the Bull .Moose party will replace the Republican party, taking over every thing that la In any way Progressive and leaving the conservative elements to find their way Into the Democratic party, while many progressive Demo crats quit their party and the Demo cratic become In all respects tho con servative party of the nation. Others look for the present situation, with three parties In the country, not Including the Socialists, to continue at least through another campaign. Still others think that by 1916 the country will have four parties, not Including the Socialists the old Republican party, tho Bull Moose party, and a radical and conservative wing of the Democratic party, which many believe la sure to split In the next four years If the Democrats should elect a President to succeed President Taft. Such an out come would mean that beforo long con ditions In Congress would be more badlv mixed than now and that some thing like the block system found In various European parliaments would obtain.

After aha had goneMr. BIttner 'his suspicions aroused by Proprietor Fischer, discovered ho had lost St. , Mr. BIttner pursued the gypsies to Anacostla, where he found Policeman C. R, Brown. The woman he pointed out denied the charge. A gypsy who said he was the chief of the band drove up and said the woman was not guilty, but he Would pay the money In order to prevent trouble. This he did on the spot. Mr. BIttner deciding not to Dross- cute. wwiam E.
