Vance C. Mc Cormlck for Governor- in 1918 and, for President in W20. This Is the" program for Democracy, accordlnsr to those tendera whn niw th continued domination of their party i ana Dy- sucn means, ror example, as Gibraltar of Itepubllcanisin, they count on succttis, Much has been said on the question of the choice 'for Governor next year, for the reason that political observers realise Democratic hopes are raised by the Influence of the national Administration and by the factionalism In the Republican Organization.

Secretary of Labor Wilson has been put forw ard. But the concensus of opinion among the leaders is that McCor-mlck Is the logical man. And they do not hesitate to say that, McCormick Is being "trained for the presidency" as President Wilson's Choice, In the event that the latter declines to nun for a third term. This training began, they assert, when the President selected McCormick for the chartmanshlp of the Domocratlo Na. tlonal Committee.

Then McCormick was appointed to the American war mission now abroad. So At is that Democratic leaders look forward to, McCormlok'sj return from, a successful trip abroad and to his being hailed as the "man. of the hour" for the Pennsylvania gubernatorial nomination, McCormick has already shown strength as. a candidate for Governor. Admittedly, he is.stronger now and will be cveh stronger after his war services have progressed.

dealers have said since they were sorry they had not turned in and elected McCormick, rather than Brumbaugh, who went to treat lenrths in the Interests of a local option bill. They figure It would have been better in the light of events to have had a Republican 'House and Senate and a Democratic Governor, 'and this may have some effect on the fight next year.v EDVARDSVELE Home Economy, esDedailv in th nonmrninr nt fAoA I Office, Town Hall Bell 8884-H I ttrrfco-lVd WalsrandosTrr. remamder of the i mihiw tuioro were aooni Bell Phone 171-L -nrtilnh St Vincent's cemetery, viunuia win nn liiLMCTwrr in icent's cemetery. pMui a holy daV'th thread IC.
