There has been a world of fun
poked at that Republican cOnven-
ton in Dallas last week, but it is
barely possible that the laugh may
be on the other side of the face in a
few weeks. Certain it is that that
convention taught the impossible
ity Of packing a credentials COM
mittee and overruling all sense of
free action and equal rights in the
attempt. The lesson was sharp
and bitter.

work, and that accomplished there
is the work of education in the di-
