mi QB JUSTICE HUGHES

WASHINGTON, April 4. Arguing that Inasmuch as the battleground lor next fall's presidential : election assuredly will be In the Middle West, campaign manager for Republican candidates from that section are planning a defensive alliance -which will prevent the nomination of either Col. Roosevelt or Justice Hughes. .While these plans still are tentative, it was learned today that among the men behind them are dome of the cleverest politicians in the party. They expect to raise the argument that not only will the presidency hinge on the outcome of the fight in the Middle West, but that control of the United, States senate likewise will be in the balance in that section. Arguing that New England and

New York are "certain Republican

territory' these political ; leaders in

sist that the real battle will of necessity be fought out in Minnesota, Illi

nois,' Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, Kansas,

Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa. Min

nesota, Missouri, and Wisconsin each

elect a United States senator and In

diana two. The combined votes of the

Middle West in the Republican convention is about 300. This' combination, voting for any agreed on candidate after the "favorite sons" are dis

posed of, can count on the support of the South, where there are about 200 additional delegates, thus could prevent the nomination of any eastern man. This is just what will be done, Republican leaders here believe. About one-third of the delegates to the convention already have been elected. Practically all of them are unpledged. , The majority of them have been sounded out by the managers of the Middle Western candidates and it

is said here that they do not consider CoL Roosevelt as available. Burton, Fairbanks, Sherman and Cummins are about7 equal favorites' In the minds of these delegates, If the opinions of the political leaders now here are to be accepted. They want to keep as far away from 1912 as possible, most politicians now here agree, and to do so

must refrain, from accepting, Col. Roosevelt. The slogan agreed on, politicians here say, and which soon will be launched, will be: , fTt Middle West has suffered

from the Democratic policies and the

remedy Is a Middle Western candidate."

Spanish sentiment is becoming more strongly pro-German than ever. King Alfonso is reputed to favor the Kaiser, largely

because Spain and Austria have many ties and are the two princi

pal supporters of the Pope. The Queen was before her marriage Princess Ena of Battenberg, a first cousin of King George of Eng

land. She is thoroughly English in feeling and is said to be holding Alfonso's impulse to declare -for the Central Powers in close

check. The queen. is at the right in the picture above.

Why Spring Brings Out Freckles and Eruptions.

The sudden appearance of .freckles, slight eruptions of fine lines at this season is attributed by scientists to the "actinic ray," which is unusually active during the spring months. Where the skin is so affected by this influence, if one will procure an ounce of common mercolized wax at any drug store, apply a little of it before retiring, like cold cream, she can easily overcome the trouble. When the wax is washed off next morning, flaky skin particles come with it. The entire outer cuticle is removed in , this way in a week or two, with all its defects. No bleach could so effectually remove freckles or blemishes. The new surface is smooth, clear, fresh looking. No pain or inconvenience accompanies this simple treatment. . In case of wrinkles which sink beneath the outer skin, a solution of saxolite, I ot., dissolve in pint witch hazel, makes a face bath which is wonderfully effective. Adv.
