STATESMEN GREAT AND
NEAR-GREAT
BY fred Kelly.

WASHINGTON, June 1s.-Fate is
a thing of queer quirks and caprices
Take, for example, Champ Clark.
The causes which led 10 the selec-
ton of Champ Clark for the posi-
ton of Speaker of the house of rep
away back years ago-nO telling just
how lar back-maybe before he was
born.
When Champ entered congress at
the beginning of his first term. he
was as incOnspicuOus as one of these
little Pomeranian dogs would be at
a rat killing. He had the usual feel
ing of a new member that he could
be a great help 10 one or more of
the big important committees If he
could only succeed in landing on
one. And this. OF course. he did not
do. He was placed on the pension
committee and also on the sO-called
claims committee, which are two Of
the dullest committees to be found
anywhere. Being a member of either
of these committees is about as tire
some and monotonOus as anything a
person could do with the exception,
perhaps. of listening to a German
comedian in a burlesque show.
Champ did not care for his commit
tee work at all.
SO far as actual enjoyment of life
was concerned ne would have vastly
preferred to be sojourning in some
nice Jail But somebody told him
that the only way 10 get on more
entertaining committee would be to
work hard and thus attract atten-
ton to himself. That sounded like
a rather Understanding and round
about way TO gain renown, but
Champ acted on the tip. Sure
enough. at the next session Of con-
gress he was placed on the foreign
affairs committee.
In a comparatively short time. ow-
ing 10 the retirement or resignation
of other members. Champ found
himself with only two or three demo-

cid not like the idea Of quitting a
committee where he ranged toward
the top, to start in on another COM
mittee at the bottom. He coaxed
not TO be asked to make any such
sacrifice. But John Sharp put it
up to him as a party duty. and he
reluctantly made the shift.
Ii was then that fate or destiny.
or something. got in its work. Men
ranking ahead OF Champ on the
ways and means committee died. re-
tired and were defeated. until all
within "a term or two he was the
topmost democrat on the commit
tee. This made him the democratic
floor leader and he led the rules fight
against Joe Cannon which placed
the democratic party back on the
map - back among things talked
about. Except for the advertising
gained by the democratic party in
that fight. il is doubtful if they
would have been returned TO power.
When the democrats took over the
house. Clark was OF course the log
zeal man for speaker.
And, by virtue OF having become
speaker. he came mighty close. some
four years ago, TO grabbing off the
nomination for president.

WHAT WILL YOU NAME THE
BABY?
(Salt Lake telegram

Grown-up folks are sensitive about
their Christian or given names. More
especially so, if their name happens
to be a fancy one or one of aus

We know a man whose name is
Eli. He hates it.
We know young couple who call

same name)
We know a middle aged fat wom-
an who writhes under the name of
Tiny. (Really. can you beat it?)
When YOU name the baby, remem-
Der that the name is going to stick
for a life time.
Don't call the baby anything
sweet because your baby will grow
up TO be big, rugged man or a
regular life-sized woman.

Senator Ollie James evidently
sometimes changes his mind. A
few months ago he was lauding
Woodrow Wilson as the greatest
president since Washington.
Then he changed it to the great
est since Lincoln. But he voted
for a Democratic platform which
merely makes Wilson the great
est in his generation. When the
campaign is over and the election
has removed the necessity for ex-
trayagance of expression, proba-
bly, Senator JarqeS will agree that
Wilson is the greatest Democratic
president since Cleveland.

Woodrow Wilson has enjoyed a

but in all the foreign offices of
the world, his facility to spin the
English language into fine phras-

is no longer the only one. Hughes
has shown that he. too, is ma

Americanism" added to the Wig

The First Preparation.

1t is not beyond the ken of
those who read the signs of the
times that the present prosperity
of the country is a result of the
disaster of war which has over
whelmed our foreign competi-
tors. 1t is plain enough, too,
that the increasing burdens of
war expenses which have been
laid on the belligerent countries
will provoke another destructive
war; an industrial war; a bitter
and relentless campaign for bus
mess and overseas commerce.
The United States with its tre-
mendous wealth and buying ca
pacity will be one of the promis-
Ing dumping grounds for the pro-
ducts of the cheap labor of Eu-
rope. Americans with their pre-
sent standard of living and with
their present scale Of wages and
their 8 hour working day, ca7
rot compete with Europ:. The
first preparation then that this
country should make is to guard
our own economic structure by a
tariff high enough to protect A
merican labor and American in
dustry from an unfair and mer
ciless competition. - Newburgh

Editorial Comment.
From the Ohio Republican Editorial
Association.

From the Ohio Republican Editorial
Association.
Ratifying the splendid militant
spirit of the Republican National
convention and its platform, the
Republican State convention in
Columbus last week was the most
enthusiastic and the most import
ant in a decade. Charles Evans
Hughes, the Republican nominee
for president, was unanimously
endorsed. The present Republ-
can administration was uhani-
mousIy endorsed and Governor
Willis and the other elective otti-
cials of the administration given
special praise for their efforts in
behalf of the people of Ohio and
the welfare of the entire state.
Contrary to the wishes of the op-
position, Governor Willis was
commended for a second term as
governor and the endorsement
was made amid a cheering throng
of Republicans.
The entire convention was in
harmony. 1t was a militant body
of Republicans from all sections
of Ohio. Victory in November
was in the air and everyone who
attended the convention felt the
spirit of the occasion. All of the
old familiar faces and many new
ones were seen and the delegates
and other visitors went to theil
homes with confidence in the a
bility Of the party to come kacf
| to it's own.
The spirit of confidence did moi
| confine itself to the convention
| hall alone. The historic old Nei
House was the hotbed of Repuh
lican enthusiasm. The presence
of former Senator Theodore E
Burton and the encouraging mes
sages from Senator Harding an(
Justice Hughes added to the en-
thusiasm. The promised co op
