REPUBLICANS EXPECT DEMOCRATS WILL KEEP THEM GOING UNTIL NOVEMBER.

By EDWARD B. CLARK Washington.—Republican leaders in Washington are saying that activities along tnvestigatlr.g lines, which they k i" are intended largely for political purposes, will he continued by the Democrats until next November because of the presumed advantage to the Democracy of keeping oil, the veterans’ bureau and some other things in the campaign limelight. There Is no denial here by Republicans that at lea i two of the in-ve-ligations which have been iwdeied and are being conducted are jcMified, and tiiey say that if they were being pn ssoil only along lines seeking to the punishment of the guilty ones, there would he no word of criticism today from the members of the Republican party. They charge, however, that other Investigations, present and future, are and will be for political purposes only. This the Democrats deny. Republican campaign managers hold that such was the ease with which the Democrats frightened Republican congress-

between

now and next Nevember to believe that every department of the government from Interior to State is in a bud wuy and that the doings of all j-,. _! high officials should he turned to the

Allce light.

The number of Inquiries ordered or contemplated already is astounding. So far as some of the departments are concerneo, there never has been so much as a whisper of wrongdoing, hut nevertheless the feeling Is here that Investigations will go on until they are no longer serviceable either for punitive or for political purposes. Disclosures Hurt the G. O. P. It unquestionably Is true that doings which hove been disclosed In the Interior department and the veterans' bureau already have hurt the Republican party. This the lenders of that party admit, and they also admit there has been no adequate offset for their troubles to come from the admissions of some Democrats formerly high in the public service that they acted ns lawyers or workers-in-chlef for certain men who have been brought Into the limelight of oil. it Is admitted that one or two Democratic presidential candidates have been put out of the running, but the Democrats claim that with this Republican achievement has stopped. Now the Republicans say that the Democrats, having realized that the determination of President Coolidge to Ptm the guilty to earth has injured their chance of making great headway against Republicanism generally, Instantly formed a determination to start other Investigations, not because they will lead anywhere, but simply to j stir up suspicion and thus to strengthen the cause of Democracy in the coming

campaign.

The Republican party as represented here In congress and out of It still Is divided Into two groups, one of them in congress apparently willing to i bow the head to any blow that Democracy may choose to deal, and the other, represented by Ihe national committee, ready to stand In the open, upright, and to hit hard.

But Wilhelmina’s Gift to Laborer’* Child Was Grabbed by Father and Brother. Little stories reflecting Queen Wflhelmina’s popularity with her subjects appear from time to time in the continental press. The Petit Pnrislen reports that recently, while motoring in the outskirts of The Hague, the Dutch sovereign was attracted by the unusual beauty of a laborer’s child who waved to her. She stopped her car to chat with the Httle girl, asked her name and kissed

her.

A few days later the delighted child received a parcel from the palace containing a beautiful pair of gloves, the right-hand glove filled with caramels and the left with gold pieces. Accompanying the gift was a note from the queen asking her little friend to write and tell her which of the gloves gave her the most pleasure. In due time the child’s reply, on tear-stained note paper, reached the palace. “Your majesty,” it read, "I don't know which glove I liked the best, because my daddy took the left htmd glove and my brother took the rtuht."
