WASHINGTON', Sept. 1—'Iihe Re
publican Puolicity Association,
through its President, Hon. Jona
than Bo in lie, Jr., todayi gave out
tile following statkinent at its WaaU
iiigtou neadquai ters:
If the country votes at the presi
dential election this year as It vot
ed at the congressional elevtiont of
1914, Hughes will caj\y California,
Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware,
IdaJie/, Illinois, Iowa, Missaciiusetti*,
Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, Ne*
Hampshire, New Jeisey, New Mexi
co, New York, North Dakota, Ore
gon. Pennsylvania, Rhode Island,
South Dakota, Utah, Vermont,
Washington, West Virginia, Wiscon
sin anil Wyoming.
"These states have 286 votes in
the electoral college, a majority of
which is only 266.
'"In each of these states, two
years anc, the Republics^ congres
sional ticset received a clear plur
ality of votes. In these states
combined the Republican candidates
for congress received 4,075,157
votes, while the Democratic candi
dates for congress received only
3,132,568 votes—the total Republi
cs plurality being 942,589.
-In each of these sta,tes, in
1914, there was au organized pro
gresive campaign.—except in Ne
vada. North Dakota, Utah and Wis
consin, although Iu Utats there was
a r usien ticket running iu opposi
tiou to 'lie Republcans. The to
tal progressive vote in these states
was 74 6.341; and the combined Re
publicaE-PrO0iet«ive| plurality over
•he Democrats wua 1,688,930.
"Two years ago there were five
states-—Indiana, Kansas, Maine, Ne
braska, and Outo—whicl\ are fairly
to be classed as normally Republi
can but where the Democratic con
gressional ticket received a plur
ality oi votes ramging from a beg
garly 365 iu Maine to an. impressive
42,752 in Indiana. But the Pro
gressive vote iu each, of these
five staits was far iu excess of
the difference between the Repub
lican and Democratic totals, and
ranged from 3,111 iu NeUiaska to
90,1'4'j in iudiana. In Kansas the
Progressive vote iu 191 amounted
to 74,44 1; iu Ohio it was 47,
981; aaid iu Maine it was 17,985.
"These live states w ill cast 63
vo.es in the electoral college. How
will they vote this year?
"Hopeful Democratic statisticians
estimate the division of the former
Progressive vote upon different pro
portion—in each instance, how
ever, giviig the loui« end of it to
ihe Republicans and iu no instance
claimii.g that more than 30 per
ceu' of the Bull Mooso will sup
port jVilsiii* Upon this extreme hy
poilifsis, let us examine the vote
of the live states where a Demo
cratic plurality was found in the
congressional elections of 1914.
"The Republican vote of Indiana
in 1H14 as 233,140, the Progress
ives casting 90,040 and the Demo
crats 275,892. Dividing the Bull
Moose s'lWigtbi o-n the basis of
seventy aid thirty per cent, re
spectively, to the Republicans and
thp Democrats, 'he vote of Indiana
this year should be: Republican,
20C.16?; Democratic, 302,904. The
margin is too small for comfort on
either side; and. Indiana must re
mam as lighting territory until the
votes are counted. The Pro
gressives—aided, It is said, by
Democifitic funds—are maintaining
an organization, in that state; but
competent observers! believe that
trorn 85 to 90 per cent of tfce
Miose will vote for Hughe9 and
that i he number wihoi will su/ppoit
Wilson ai>* negligible. Upon this
basis, Indiana should go far Hughes
and Fairbanks by nearly 30,000.
"Th© seventy-thirty division ap
plied tc Kansas would give 'hat
I state to the Republican^ by the
fillawiiic figures: Republican,
241',215; Democratic, 218,162.
j "lii Maine the result would be:
Republican, 72,888; Democratic,
OH, 071.
"In Nebraska "-'le tlgures should I
shr.w: Republican, 413,756; Demo
cratic, 113,820. This is an
other hair-line of demarcation; —
bu* tl.»re is ne> Bull Moose* ticket
in Nebraska this year; and while J
the conlts* will be a hard one, the
indications are 'hat Hughes will
carrv the state.
"The saniQ division of the Pro
gressive vote in Ohio wouidj pro
duce figures for 1916 in this wise:
Republican, 511,0JS; Democratic,
49S0;.3.
"I* is therefore, a fair ass-umti
Mon that, in addition to retaining
the slates which, disclosed a clear
Republican plurality in 1914 —
and which assure a majority of the
electoral college — the Republican
ticket will this year gain Kansas,
Maine and Ohio without ques
tion and secure for Hughes and
Fairbanks a total of 326 out of
the f 31 votes in tihq electoral col
lege— with more than a fighting
chance to add the 23 votes of In
diana and Nebraska to thatnumber,
making 349, or a majority of 167.
"Hughes will not be a minority
President.''.
TOLD IN FEW WORDS.
Some Famuys Nominating Speeches In
P. sciential Campaign!.
On the third day of the lStiO conven
tion when other business had been dis
posed of and nominations were in or
der Mr. Evarts oi New York in fewer
than thirty wolds presented William
II. Seward for the nomination. Mr.
Judd of Illinois was euuitliy brief to
presenting; Abraham Lincoln.
The names of William L. Dayton of
New Jersey, of Simon Cameron of
Pennsylvania, of Salmon P. Chase of
Ohio, of Edward I lutes of Missouri aad
nt John McLeun or Ohio were present
ed. but fewer than two dozen words
were used iu any instance.
It is uot by elaborate and eloquent
nominating speeches that the choice of
presidential candidates Is determined
The reasons influencing delegates are
of a different character But If
speeches must be made a reasonable
brevity will runke them all the more
effective
Two of the best remembered noml
noting speeches ever made in a na
tionai convention were by Robert Q
Ingersoli for Kiaiue in 1876 and by
i'auicl Dougherty nominating Hancock
in 18S0—one u Republican, the other •
Democrat—and neither speech occu
pied more than ten minutes In delivery

"All powers of attorney must be
recorded.
"Otherwise a mining claim locat
ed by one is not legal.
"This phase of the law1 has been J
hotly argued in every mining camp
in Alaska. Many contended that
the law was not clear oni the point.
Others thought that a, properly
made cu* power of attorney and
witnessed would bei sufficient. Oc
casions have arisen in Alaska in the
hills where men could not record
powers of attanney in time to get
[11 on a new strike. However, the
circuit court of appeals decides
tha» it inns' be recoixled."
SAX FRANCISCO, Sept. 1 — The
federal circuit court of aj.peals has .
iecided that the failure to record |
[>c«vpr of attorney In Alaska lnvali- |
iates title to mining claim.
The particular case was a mining i
:lalm in the Shusha<nna or Chisana
llstrict. at the head! of Whitg river,
[u which Dan, Sutherland is given
ltle to the claim by tolie decision
>f the court.
The claim was fil^d on, hy Suth
erland affcer it had' been located by
3. L. Gat.ee when located it by
sower o* attorney from F.. W.
Purdy, and the power o£ attorney
was not recorded.
The Homeric Controversy.
It was about the year 1705 that the
"Homeric controversy" oegan. About
that date F. A. Wolf, In his prolegom
ena, argued that the Homeric poems
were composed of Independent epic
•ongs, collected and arranged by Pel
Blitrattia about 060 B. C. Wolfs theo
ry created a great stir among scholars
and poets and Inaugurated the flgbt
which enlisted most of the learned
men of the day. Mr. Andrew Lang. In
"Homer and the Epic." 1803, vigorous
ly defended the "one author" theory,
aa opposed to the Idea of Wolf that the
famous poems were composed through
ages by many different persons.—New
