Republican farmers are responding by three to one over the Democrats, though the significance of that fis lessened by the fact that the Fgrm Journal, being a high tariff paper, has a much larger circulation among Republicans than Democrats. Coolidge is leading among RepubMcans preferred for the Presidency and Gov. Smith has several times as many votes as all the other Democrats com- bined. A late account of the poll gives Coolidge 13,000 votes, 9,000 for Lowden, 7,000 for Hoover, 2,300 for Borah and 1,800 for Dawes jov. Smith has 7,000 and Senator Reed, who comes next, 2,900 among the Democratic candidates. Among Western farmers Lowden is far in the lead while Gov. Smith leads the Democrats in all sections of the country. FOR COOLIDGE. is polling CALIFORNIA CONTIN TO GROW. The continued growth of California cated by the circymstance that there 000 voters registered in that State. The Demo- cratic registration for the recent primary was 530,000 and the Republican 1,200,000. The in- dependents, Socialists and Prohibitionists would probably make the first figure quoted when added to Democrats and Republicans. In the Presi- dential election four ago California cast about 1,300,000 Of this at registration something over 300,- 000 were cast in the Democratic primary and more than 500,000 in the Republican. That leaves mearly 1,000,000 California voters for the Novem- ber election who have vet declared their Presidential preference. They are likely to have ‘another hot fight in that State—but the . ponderance of Republicans is very noticeable. is indi- are 1,800,- years votes. not pre- # OOMMUN]1';IF()RE TTAYS PROFIT.

(New York Times.) Miss Eleonora Sears of Boston 1 ushered in the walking season by doing the seventy-four miles from Newpert to Boston in seventeen hours. Her feat leaves in the shade Carlyle’s famous hike—*"“the longest I ever made”—from Muirkirk to Dumfries, a mere fifty-four miles. One of the best gifts of Heaven is a sturdy pair of legs. Wordsworth was so blest. Let De Quincey be heard: 1 caleulate, data, that with these identical Wordsworth must have traveled a distance of 175, 000 or 180,000 English miles, a mode of exercise which to him stood in the stead of alcohol and all stimulants whatsoever to the animal spirits; to which, indeed, he w debted for a life| of unclouded happiness, and we for much of what is most excellent in his writings Ex-Senator Cole of California, when asked on his hundredth birthday how to attain great age, replied: “Keep out of the easy-chair.”” The cheap- est and most salutary way to take that advice is to walk. “There are many schools of walk- ing,” says George M. Travelyan, “and none of them orthodox.” He adds ne school is that of the road kers, the Puritans of the religion, strain of fine ascetic vigor in these men.” evelyan thinks that “twenty-five or thirty miles of moor and mountain, cf wood and field path, is better than five-and-thirty or even forty ham- red cut on the road.”” There are times, nevertheless, to walk on a highway. Some one has said that he would not think himself old until he could no longer feel a thrill in dropping off a night train in New England at dawn to listen ta the overture of waking birds, bathe in the freshness of the dew-laden air, and view the sun breaking over the eastern hills in glory. The walk need not go on all day. Trevelyan was proud in the knowledge of having walked “twice at least round the coast of Devon and Cornwall.” Leslie Stephen was also that kind of saunterer. “I have fancied myself on occasions a felicitous blend of poet and ) which an agreeable® sensation.” Meredith speaks of “a pride of legs in moticn kept.” Long- distance hikers love to talk about the ground they have covered. But the main thing is to be able to sa. ‘Ah, how short the day! Yet all the Winters cannot blow its sweetness quite away.” The sweetness may be in converse. Such was the case when Leslie Stephen led his Sunday Tramps with frequent disregard of trespass signs. Some of the rarest spirits in England, men of the bar, bench and pen, tramped with Stephen and they talked as they walked. As Maitland, his bio- grapher, says: “It would have made the presence of a shorthand writer a benefaction to the coun- try. A great pedestrian who will be missed if De Quincey is not read was “Walking Stewart.” At 40 he did not look, a day older than 28, “in such health had his pedestrian exercise preserved him.” “He was a man of fervid mind and of sublime aspirations.” On many things he re- flected as he walked, a philosopher of the foot- path and therefore he was rich in conversa- tion at other times. “A man whose memory 1 love,” said De Quincey. Stewart would have been a man after the heart of Hauzlitt, whose soul ex- panded when he walked alone. There is a good deal to be said for the soli- tary walker, in spite of Stevenson. The world would have lost the best of Thoreau had he swung along in a party of ready talkers. What balm can there be in nature when a companion is assailling your ears with opinions not to be reconciled with common sense? Happy the man with a stout pair of legs and a love of rambling, In company or solitarily, on the open road or the free trail, let him give himself up to a recreation that will match any other, good legs upon is The Mayor and Stone Mountain. (New York World.) Walter C. Mabie, National Commander of the Sons of Union Veterans, signalized an address upon the 106th birthday of Gen. Grant by at- tacking Mayor Walker for taking part recently in the dedication of the Stone Mountain memorial to Robert E. Lee. Mr., Mabie seems particularly irritated because the Mayor had dressed up the !._vur—y. r-old “grandson of an archtraitor” in a tiny Confederate uniform with “the insignia of nw] .(hh]mm)l'wl Confederacy on the sword and sash.” Gen h Grant himself seems to have had the dea that after Appomattox the war was over, but of course he was only a great soldier and had not the wide vision of a son of a veteran Sixty-three years after that great event, JRRERMRRI 2 A3 Uncle Sam has captured nearly 500 rum boats off Miami since the first of the year.
