(Rockville Leader.) If United States Senator of Ohio, who was the chief spe: at the McKinley banquet at Water ury, has any presidential aspira- tions, he ought to pray to be de- livered from his fool friends. Boom- ing him for the next republican pres idential nomination, as was done was ill-advised and timed. Many things may happen fore 1920, and it is altoge carly to trot out a president didate. There are many pos and cven Woodrow Wilson is one them. And if this great world continues for a year or more America gets into the thick some prominent American may distinguish himself and become military hero. Remember what happened to U. S. Grant? There are Generals Pershing and Leonard Wood and there are others. All pres- idential talk at this time is réally silly. Let's all pitch right in and help win the war. This is the big issue that looms before the world at this time. The presidency is but a side issue just now.
