THE CLARK BOOM.

The boom OF Champ Clark for the
democratic nomination next year was
started IN earnest Saturday night when
Minority Leader Mann OF the House
and number OF other republican con
gressmen voiced their approval q III"
record that the speaker ha: made ~
the present session OF Congress Inc
love feast took place at the banquet o.
the Delta Tau Delta college fraternity
Of which both Clark ami Mann afe
members The reception giTen ne
sneaker was a remarkable ovation anG
when he was called one Of the Creates
nnhlic men living today the college
boys leaped from their seats aoa gave
cheer after cheer.
There is no Disgusting the fact that
Clark is making splendid IMPRESSION
upon the people of the country. lie /
attending strictly to bis business at the
capitol AMI is not doing much cleo
pioneering nor does he have \ press hu-
reau that it presenting his views 70 the
people. This course O: action : on"
that cannot help but Dleri, lie approval
Of the electorate.
Senator Robert L. Taylor .! Tonnes
See. has announced h;mseI! to- Clark,
He says:
When / say CLAMP Clark will be
the next President OF the United States,
it is no guess, but a spontaneous ez-
preston OF my conviction. | have
lately seen many people i'll different
parts OF the country, and many have
come TO me here They have dis
cussed the availability OF different emf
nent democrats for the honor of stand
ard bearer of the party next year.
While there were words Of praise for
every one mentioned. and il was ex-
tremcly gratifying to me as demo
crat to observe the quantity and high
quality OF the candidates suggested,
what most struck me-and most agree
ably. / will have to confess-was the
fact that while all others were deemed
entirely worthy Of the lordship OF the
White House, objections here and
there were found for one reason and
another to every man Of them except
Champ Clark.
When you come to look at the situ-
alton thoughtfuiiy and dSpassionateIy,
YOU are hound to realize that he stands
in b remarkably advantageous posi-
ton. Under his SpeakeIsEip Of the
House Of Representatives the demo
cratic party has presented an unbrokcn
front and such a degree Of harmonious
performance as are absolutely without
precedent. II is largely because. while
ne is a man OF strong and consistent
convictions. he is fair man, kind
man, and magnanimous adversary.
He is the rarest combination, too, OF
the college and the cornfcld lawyer.
He is the kind OF man the great masses
Of the American people delight to
honor with the best within their gift.
for they are sure Of him: sure Of ms
great heart beating always III sympathy
with their needs and aspirations.

Editor Leader:
Our bonded Indebtedness according to
the official figures is $3.50, 400plus $4,000
school bonds not included making
total Indebtedness of $4,000. Five
per cent on the amount stated would
make about $3.50 for each man, woman
and child in the city; then we have
lighting plant capitalized for 100000.
The state railroad commission says,
that such lighting company shall be
permitted to make per cent on it's
capital which would be another 81 for
each inhabitant. 1t was said and justly,
that when the city was bonded for only
$4,000, it was a great drawback in
getting manufactures to locate here.
Don't you think they will be just as care
full in regard to helping carry the addi
tional burden? for the interest must
be paid annually and the principal must
be paid sometime. We need factories if
the city is to groW.and should do nothing
to drive them away. The writer thinks
that we should consider we'll before
putting any additional burden on the
taxpayers.
