The old pelitical methods are work- ing, while the Roosevelt boomers are invading the states and trying to over- throw the old convention method by the adoption of direct primaries. The Massachusetts house has passed & direct primary bill, and it is-won- dered if the senate will follow suit. It 18 noticeable that while the/Roose- velt boomers are hitting every oppos- ing head that shows up, the list of Taft delegates is steadily increasing. On Wednesday four were chosen in Tefnessee and two in lowa, especial significance attaching to the election of the latler, as Senator Cummins of Towa is an avowed candidate for the nomination. The choice of these two Taft delegates in lowa hints ‘at the eventual break-up of the oppos though the senator will probably ture most of the other delegates from hig state. There are now eighty mem- bers of ‘the Chicago convention | structed for the president or known to be for him, but no other candidate has even one undisputed deleg it is a long way to ) which is just enough to take the nom- ination, but the motion in that direc- tion for Taft at present is most assur- ing.

Notwithstanding the power and ef- ficiency of the Utah and the rank it has among the vessels of its class, the Montitor, in her day, was as much a step forward as the modern dread- nought, with double turrets and oil | burners, is to her predecessors. Surely time has not taught the inventors teo reduce the cost any. EDITORIAL NOTES.

Angels are all invis- ible, unless, they are made of wood or stone. The Tigid doctrinaires say that all true angels have wingsand whis ers; and we have neither. It is not so long ago they scouted the female an- gels as decorations in marble, beca there was no scriptural warrant it a as E to them.

In fact, this was the kind of | tiy an angel I liked best, whether the were painted on canvas or were only a dream. We still prefer this model tc the brawny, bewhiskered angel, for he does not appeal to us at all. He would be of llttle use on a gunboat, or at a pienie. st The Social Corner sisters have had quite a symposium upon Johnnycake; and one sister says the name is a cor- ruption of journey-cake, because in the old colonial days it was the staff of life taken on every journey.
