Who Is Who Now
JOHNSON’S CASTOR IS IN THE RING
Senator Hiram Johnaon of Cali
fornia. running mate of Theodora
Roosevelt on the Progressive ticket In
1812, haa formally announced hlmaelf
u candidate for the Republican nomi
nation for president In the 1920 cam
paign.
Hla friends let It be known that
considerable work on behalf of the
Johnson candidacy has been going on
guletly In the far West for a longnme,
and they predicted he would be able'
to go Into the Republican convention
at Chicago next June with a fonultl
’ able array of delegates.
Senator Johnson's statement an
nouncing his candidacy fairly bristled
with defiance of the Republcan organ
ization. He made It clear he Is going
Into the campaign for the nomination
free and Independent of all so-called
“organisation aid” and that he Is de
termined to carry "the fight Into every
state where his name can be brought
before the voters in a direct primary. Among the senator's platform planks
will be unalterable and unequivocal opposition to the entire treaty of peace,
withdrawal of the American troops from Siberia and other remote corners of
the earth, maintenance of the right of free speech, a general reussertion of
the principles of the Progressive platform in 1912, and a declaration of Itpose
veltlan Americanism with no foreign entanglements.
BURROUGHS: OLD-TIME NATURALIST
roughs’ way: If It doesn't happen at Slabsldes he's Inclined to think there
ain't no such anlmlle. *
Really It Is too bad that John Burroughs didn't stay longer and give a
lecture. He has many admirers even in smoky, noisy, dirty, commercial Chi
cago. Then, too, he's one of those rare authors whose personality corresponds
to his books. There are many nature lovers who prefer the "reason" school
to Mr. Burroughs' "Instinct" school, hut even they have a fondness for Bur
roughs the man.
WE MUST GROW INTO SHIP HABIT
John Barton Payne, chairman of
the United States shipping board, in a
statement to the Southern Commercial
congress, said in part:
My conclusion is, it is not possible
to have a successful American mer
chant marine until the country grows
into the ship habit. The American
newspapers and magazines must
arouse the thinking men among manu
facturers, investment bankers, farm
ers, and labor to the necessity for a
merchant marine.
The congress is giving the matter
close attention, and besides the Greene
bill should pass a mortgage bill sub
stantially like the one now before the
merchant marine and fisheries com
mittee, to guarantee Investors a lien
for tho purchase price of the ships
which will, in financial circles, have
as much value as a railroad mortgage,
and investment bankers and the public
may freely invest in ship securities.
American insurance is essential that we be not dependent on foreign com
panies for ship insurance, as we are pow.
To accomplish this great task all Americans of all classes must pull to
gether. The tales of the sea must become the gossip of the nursery and of the
fireside.
GARFIELD AND THE COAL SITUATION
14 ptr cent wage Increase as fair for the miners and possible to be paid from
present profits of mine owners. Doctor Garfield suggested a commission repre
sentative of the Industry to review the findings, but expressed tbe conviction
that such a body should not have power to fix prices. His belief Is said to bs
that with this power granted a combination of the employer and employee la
the Industry to mulct the public by .price raises Is certain to result.
Old John Burroughs—his beard is
long and white these .days—migrated
across the country the other day from
Slabsides to Pasadena. Of course he
had to change trains at Chicago, and a
large group of his admirers met him at
a dinner In a North Shore hotel —the
dinner being spread in a sunken gar
den, surrounded by u wood and
wanned by a log fire.
And what do you think? The old
fellow boasted that he had never
drank coffee or smoked. Now a good
many good people believe that the man
who has never drank strong, black,
hot coffee right off the campflre has
missed something. He may live, six
months or a year longer, but it isn't
worth the price. And the man who
can't light up a fine, ripe, Missouri
meerschaum in the woods and find it
the crowning touch of the wilderness
feats —why, there’s something the mat
ter with him. But that’s John Bur-
The circumstances of the resigna
tion of Dr. Harry A. Garfield, fuel ad
ministrator, are likely to keep him in
the public eye for some time for the
reason that he is understood to believe
that the work of the commission au
thorised under the settlements to be
made up of one coal mine operator, a
coal miner and a third person named
to represent the public, will result In
an increase In the price ef coal to the
consuming public.
To this form of settlement Doc
tor Garfield has been unalterably op
posed. It has been learned on good
authority that he took no part In the
negotiation with the mine ■workers’
union chief, and that though informed
and consulted after their initiation the
terms laid out us finally accepted con
travene his conception of the main
principle involved.

the resignation that In suggesting a

ficers, Kergt. Jerrmiuji M.J parry and
DeVectiVo ijeorfte c!efmel(ter, are

Thompson, 27, is dead, following a des
perate battle which occurred In a dark
ened house at 18,‘M West Forty-sixth
kVenue when officers ca)le«l there to
arrest young Thompson on a charge
of stealing tools in Adams county.-
The four policemen drove 4 to the
house and entered by both the front
j»nd rear doors. The mother and her
iron, Albert Thompson; UO, slibwcd-the
police about the house aiid a thorough
search failed to reveal the hunted man.
The mother, according to tin* police,
was insistent that her boy was out of
town.
The officers asked to see the base
ment and their request was complied
with, three of them —Harry, Boggio
and Ghuvwn —inspecting the quarters.
Meanwhile S, hnelder had stumltfed
upon a blind stairway leading to an
attic. Without calling the »other of
ficers he mounted tin? stairs and be
gan a search of a small rmim at the
sop, using his searchlight to penetrate
the darkness. _
Suddenly he felt a revolver thrust at
his side and heard the words, “You’ve
got me. I know 1 am u goner, hut so
are you—March!” With tills the per
son instructed Schneider to enter a
small room and as he did so the of
ficer quickly slummed the door shut
with his foot, leaving tlie gunman on
the outside.
The other three policemen failing to
find any trace of Thompson*in the
hnsement and thinking perhaps that
the mother was truthful- about her
son’s absence, prepared to leave tl»q
house, expecting to find Schneider
waiting outside. Then they heard the
the muffled cry, “Look out, Sarge!
lie’s got me!”
Instantly the thought that Schneider
was being held at pistol |»olnt in shine
unknown recess of the house dawned
on the three and they started back in
side. Cliuven was the first to enter
the kitchen, into which the door to the
attic opened. His progress was barred
by Mrs. Thompson, who, armed with a
heavy iron bar, began to beat him
about the lieud. Then Boggio entered
the kitchen. At the top of the small
stairs Thompson, gun in hand,
crouched waiting.for the door to open
as his signal to open fire.
Boggio opened the door and stepjied
inside. As lie put ids foot oil the first
step lie was met by a volley of shots.
Sergeant Barry, leaving Cliuven to at
tend to Mrs. Thompson and her son,
Albert Thompson, dashyd through the
narrow door just in time to see Boggio
fall.
Then Barry fired, and Schneider,
hearing the shots directed at Boggio,
released himself, lie could discern the
gunman', a dim' form in the darkness,
crouching at the top of the stairs.
Thompson returned a shot at Barry,
the bullet striking him in the hip. Sim
ultaneously, both Schneider and Barry
emptied their guns at Thompson, who
■crumpled in a- heap.
