why the government will not release
lord Mayor MacSwIney of Cork are
given In an official statement Issued

would be made to "continue with;

National Political ComepoiKlenf of
die Evening Post.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 4. During
the next two weeks a considerable
number of the more Important sent -j
lorial primaries will be held to fill
tho vacancies occurring In the senate
with tho end of this term.
Next week. In addition to primaries
In New Hainpshlp' to determine Son
utor Moses ntgeesuoi' ami primaries
I in Wisconsin -to determine Senator
iLenioot's succeimor. there will be on
s-. pt, mber 7 primaries in Nevada to
deterjhlne the succession to the pres
ent Democratic Senator Churles li.
Henderson. in the Democratic pri
maries Senator Henderson will receive
nomination, for he h.ij no oppo
1 : ition.
ODbD D(DA1 R
Among the Republicans there are
five candidates lompettng for the
I chance to oppose Senator Henderson
Ob election day. Ot these five prob
ably the best known is Governor Tas
! ker L. Oddle. Governor Oddle's nom
Ination would PM.bably j,r.- the Ke
I publicans the oest chanc they can
! have to deleat Henderson and add a
I Republican to the senate. He is pop
'ulur and hits made u favorable record
j as governor.
Another cindldate for th,. Kepuhli
j can nomination Is Hiewsl-T Adams,
pastor of the Iteno Baptist church,
who Is described as huvlng "modern
concept ions" of a clergyman's func
tion aud is making a spectacular cam
paign. Mr. Adams was formerly a
university settlement worker In N w
York, a member of the National Child
Ia bor committee, and a volunteer pro
bs tlon officer.
FORA1 IK s. n i i h I
A third candidute lor the Republi
can nomination Is Grant Stiller, who
In two previous elections ran for sen
ator on tne Socialist ticket. Hi- left
tho Socialists four years kgo and came
b.i k to tie Hep u Mica ii paily and lus
been, dlligeni tiepubUcan worker
since he returned to the penitent's
bench. Mr. Miller is described as an
orator, a good iniNcr and a strong vote
iji u1 i . lie is wen t.iiovtii in ific riiuii',
having In en prominent In Literty Loan
drives .md otherwise i the vork of
the louucki of national defense He l
a lawyer of ri.cognied ability.
Two other candidates ror the Re
pubin an nomination are Bardie Bum
merfield and Charles li. Wharton.
MILLER li s II N I
Your correspondent has not been In
Nevada recently, but is Informed that
tin lace Is likely lo go to either U,
dle. Adams or .Miller. Adams and
dle are more or less dividing the regu
lar Republican vote, and that division
seems lo constitute Miller's best, chance
to win the nomination. If Miller Should
win the nomination he would have a
l ard (line lo beat Senator I lenders. ,n,
because he could not command the
Solid support of the lt publicans In the
election. His previous Socialistic af
filiations are against him, I n tho
other hand, It is believed that either
Adgm or Oddie might give the Re
publicans n fair chance to beat llen
dirson in November-
The chief Issue In the election In
November Will probably be the league
of nations. Henderson was one of
those senators who was u thorough
going supporter of tho league.
WOMAN 1ND1DA1 E.
The situation Is muddled a little by
the fact that In the election in No-
rub, r there will be an Independent
woman candidate In Miss Martin, who
is a unlvsESity graduate with an In
stinct foi public affairs and who got
some fooo votes in the last campaign
for senator. Five thousand votes In
i ' tut. 11 Nevada, whose total nor
r.iil vole is only about 80,000. Is a
considerable racier. Miss Martin Is
I robabl) the first vvomun in the coun
try who ever made a serious contest
lo Ket into the United States senate.
It will not be possible to make any
prediction as to the Kepubllcans'
nances of winning this Democratic
rent in i)ic. senate away from Hendcr
bon until after the results ure known
OH Tuesday.

They're Not Afraid of Free
Speech Over in
England
i By Milton QFmiucr.)
EXETER England Sept. 4. "Your
capitalist pi,, v..uld probably call m
' a Bolshevist ell. according to their
definition, I am a Bolshevist. I glory
In what they have accompanllshed In
1 Russia."
Tho man who said this stood In
front of a h'.ood-riil bantu r whe h
was labeled "Workers Socialist V- I
eratlon Communism." One of hH
; assistants passed out a leaftlel which
contained about as many lies as it
would le possible to pack in brief
' space.
I WHM s OF LD
Among th m were the following.
"The Russian Soviets have social
ized ihe houses so that there are no
i more landlords and no more rent to
pay.
"The land has been soclalizi d ami
: the landlords and big farmers have
disappeared.
"The Industries hnve been socla!
; ized and the DOSS has gone.
' ibl nc pensions equal to lhj
standard wage are given to all per
sons over 50."
It wound up with this ph-i " Slop
the war against the Workers" Com
munist Republic of Russln. make a
Workers' Communist Republic hers!"
IM 1KER 111 H l l l
The man wis not arrested, There
was not a policeman In hIkIU. Noth
ing happened except that the audi
ence, composed of Devonshire farm
ers and Exeter merchants, heckled
him witii embarrassing nuestlons.
One heckler, an elderly man. asked
the speaker whether he knew th
difference between a Communlnt and a
Christian Socialist. The Bolshevik
.speaker stammered and hesitated.
"I thought vou wouldn't know.'
said the, heckler. 'v it. l will tell
you
"A ChrKiin Socialist des'.res hi
fi How man s GOOD.
A Communist desires his fellow
' man's GOOl s "
l lil I SPKECS OOKS .
Now the point of ihls whole th!n
is that In England, even after a r.
war ami with Bolshevik Russia not so
' far away, they are not afraid of free
speech, free assemblage and free
press. To forbid workmen to meet
; and discuss their unions, would be
to them unthinkable.
Then- are no tllttle trust-owned
' mayors over us there nre In America to
I do thul sort of thing.
Apparently the British law officers
and police think It better even to
let Bolshevik fanatics have a safety
j valve In tho shape of free talk and
free meetings

the work of rescue.
It discloses lhat It was largely
through the work of the Imprlscfned I

desperately Some of the water was
expelled and the stern rose slowly.
, but the storage batteries had bCton
flooded, releasing chlorine fumes, the
same gas that the Germans used In
the world war.
The fumes drove the crew from the
bomparlments. With the batteries
flooded they presumably were forced

only by small flashlights.
The men worked In i vvo-iiiinute re
