TTLE, Wash., Jan. 26.—Wash- | ngton will have three political parties in the gencral campaign. The farmer-labor party will have a com- plete state ticket, and party leaders expect to have a presidential candi- date in either Senator Magnus John- | son of Minnesota or Senator Robert | M.

BORAH FACES FIGHT FOR SENATE SEAT Idaho Progressives Seen Gunning for Scalp of Senator in Bpecial Dispateh t BOISE, Idaho, January sives in Idaho are roing to make a drive | for a seat In the United tes Senate. | This rumor has emanated from several rellable sources. It has come as a com- plete surprise to republican leaders, who have looked upon the prospective candidate, H. F. Samuels, as the nat- ural opponent of Gov. C. C. Moore. Mr. Samuels Is a man of wealth. hav- ing amassed a forture from mining operations. He was formerly a repub- lican, but for several years has been | the chlef financial factor behind the progressive mcvement in Idaho. He #nd his colleagues have always been “dmirers of Senator Borah. Some suggest that if Samuels really has accepted the offer of the nomina- tion, it is an indication that Borah will not be renominated, or, it nominated, cannot draw a large republican vote estranged during the last state cam- palgn.” A prominent leader has re- cently said that he benheved that Sam- uels could defeat Borah for the Senate | easier than Moore for the governorship. JEROME BARTELL. NO PRIMARY, JOHNSON | TOLD BY MINNESOTA| Telegram From State G. 0. P. Says Law Provides Only for the Holding of Convention. - Progres. i i | | Br the Associated Press. ST. PAUL, Minn., January 26.—The legislature of Minnesota has provided no legal machinery for the holding of a presidential primary, declared Charles R. Adams, chalrman of the republican state central committee, in a telegram sent late today to Sena- tor Hiram Johnson of California, now xtTv‘Yluhllflllon, e telegram was in reply to one received today from Senator .Yolmsor;-n. demanding that his candidacy for the presidency be submitted to a primary election in Minnesota. Senator Johnson's message arrived ; after the state central committee meeting had been concluded; hence the committee could take no action on it. Committee's Telexram. “Our committee, in calling a dele- * gate convention, as it did today, is acting absolutely in accordance with | the call for the republican national | convention promulgated by the re- publican national committee,” said the tolegram to Senator Johnson. “This call provides two ways for se< lecting delegates to the national con- | ventlon. The first is by primary elec- ! tion in those states which require, | by law, the election of delegates by direct primaries. The second is by congregsional or state conventions, as the case may be, to be called by cungressional or state committees, re- svectively, in states where there are no, direct ‘state primary laws. “Minnesota having no direct pri- mary law, the republicans of this state have no alternative but to se- lect delegates to the republican na- tional convention by representative congressional and state conventions. “The republican state central com- . mittee issued a call for a state con- vention to be held here March § to relect seven dclegates at large to the aational convention at Cleveland.” I FOLKS l Henry- Cabot Lodge may be ac- claimed the dean of American letters 50 far as the literary world centers in Washington. This honorable title had been held by George Bancroft, like Senator| Lodge a scholar and historian first, a statesman or politician lll‘ the second count- ing. It was also bestowed on John Hay and held by that lamented poet and diplomatist | for approximat twenty-five years. Senator Lodge, It will be remem- bered, had culled SENATOR LODGE. literary laurels before he entered | the political arena, and no part of the year is so precious to him as those infrequent quiet days spent at his home in Nahant on the north shore of Massachusetts bay, among his books and browsing over manu- scripts he has been unable to touch in the rush of events in Washington. Were Senator Lodge to ask all his trother historians living in Washing- ton to foregather with him, he could collect a sizable number in the offi- clal ranks. The diplomatic corps would- furnish three of first rank in the dean. M.

In recent years the stress of publle life has been so grinding that Sena- tor Lodge has not been busy with his pen, but history and all that relates to literary events generally cngage his sympathetic interest and all the time he can spare from im- perative duties. - Copper and copper-alloy objects are faund In the prehistoric remains of Egypt 3800 B.
