LaFollette of Wisconsin won his campaign for nomination nom-ination as senator by a landslide victory. vic-tory. The politicians are now saying that his alliance with radicals is taken to mean that he will seek the presidential nomination of a proposed new 'national party. They say that LaFollette's attack on Harding and Republican policies and his acceptance accept-ance of the Socialist Indorsement of his own candidacy are straws Indicating Indicat-ing be would like to run for president In 1924. Anyway, LaFollette defended his record In the senate, laying particular stress on his stand on questions relating relat-ing to the World war. He has denounced de-nounced the four-power treaty and called the Fordney-MqCumber tariff measure the "greatest robber tariff ever attempted." In reviewing the industrial in-dustrial situation, he bitterly attacked the Eseh-Cummlns law and the nro- posed snip subsidy. William A. Ganfield, who sought to displace Senator LaFollette, La-Follette, declared during his campaign "that of all the radical things LaFollette LaFol-lette has proposed, the one, most subversive to the government of the United States Is his proposal to take away from the Supreme court the final decision as to the constitutionality of laws." He criticized the war record of Wisconsin's Wiscon-sin's senior senator, and warned against what he termed "the danger of experiments experi-ments of untried radical theories."

Miller of New York Is a Live Wire ' It Is not unlikely that the man who is governor of New York In 1924 will be a candidate for the nomination for President of the United States o say the politicians. They also say that If Gov. Nathan L. Miller Is reelected re-elected next November It Is practically a foregone conclusion that his friends will bring him forward for the Repub- llcan nomination, though he consistently consist-ently discourages any suggestion of the sort now and leaves no doubt that he Is a loyal supporter of President Harding for renomlnatlon. It la admitted all around that Governor Gov-ernor Miller has achieved the leadership leader-ship of the Republican party In New York. The net result has been the disappearance of all opposition to his renomlnatlon and the coalition of all factions of the party In the most formidable for-midable political organization seen In New York In many years. Fifty-four Tears old. with a vlcorons nhvsloue (r 4 A J ' Is ik-J- '-'glTTTT'1 and a commanding presence, Governor Miller has a way ot going to the heart of a question with rapier strokes of logic that bewilder his opponents. Pubfte men In New York have grown weary of drawing him Into debate. Will John D. Drill on His Golf Links? xjpsw i .,ii - .1, What's this good luck or bad, or retributive Justice? Many years ago John D. itockefcller, retiring from active leadership in the affairs of the Standard Oil company, went to the Pocantlco hills to ret away from oil and anything suggestive of oil wells.

The reason was the accidental discovery of an oily film on water seeping through rain-soaked land Immediately adjoining, which be-!ongs be-!ongs to William Pofvall. The news traveled to New York- It was recorded in a few brief paragraphs para-graphs and then things commenced to happen. Folks swarmed In from the countryside roundabout Pleasantvllle, asked questions, studied a small bottle of liquid which might or might not be oil of some kind, and asked Itoy what he proposed to do when he got to be a petroleum king. Meanwhile Mr. Porvall, on whose land the oily substance first was found, no longer stays within sound of the telephone In his home. He has lived there for Of teen years, working as a carpenter and builder by day, and In the pleasant evenings looking after vegetables, fruits and flowers. G. H.
