Some republican papers are claim
ing that Harding was unmistakably
the choice Of the party at the pr1-
mary, therefore should be accepted
Nv the voters Of the party without a
murmer. Now, getting right down
to the first analysis, was he such an
unanimous choice of the republicans
Of the state? The wet democratic
vote with the split Cosson and Allen
votes gave him the nomination. we
are not ready even to admit that he
represents the principles OF the re-
publican party in the state OF Iowa.

/ MP VAN VINKLE ASSERTION.

A RIP VAN WINKLE ASSERTION
At Butte Mr.. Hughes said: 1.-THE
democratic party has always been a
party of opposition to progress. There
has not been a great national move
ment in response to national demand
that has not had to run over the pros
trate form of the democratic party.
Candidate Hughes is generation
behind the times. Twenty years or
more ago some Republican campaign
orators were making speeches like the
quoted extract, but since then the
Democratic party has been generally
recognized by all sincere men as the
progressive party of the country.
Was not the Democratic. demand for
an Income tax a great national move
ment9 What was Mr.. Hughes doing
when that great national demand roll
ed I'D from every section Of the coun-
try? Why he was Governor of the
state of New York at that time and
sent message to the legislature pro-
testing against its ratification. Was
not the income tax amendment to the
Federal constitution ratified by the
state Of New York over the "prostrate
form of Mr.. Hughes?
And where was Mr.. Hughes and his
party when the great national demand
for the election of United States SEN
ators by the direct vote of tie peo-
pie became uppermost in this coun-
4 try? Did not the Republican nation
al convention of 1908 reject that re-
form by a vote of seven to one? Did
not the Democratic national conven-
lions of 1900, 1894, 1908 and 1912, ia
vor that reform, and pledge the par
ty by platform planks to Lelp secure
an amendment to the constitution,
giving the people that right?
Were not the rural credits act and
the federal reserve act and at least
a score more of great progressive laws
placed on our statute books by the
Democratic party?
Has Candidate Hughes been politi-
cally asleep for 20 years? 1t is kind
or TO so believe than to accuse him Of
wilful insincerity.

WILSON VET0ES LAND BILL
President Disapproves Measure Per.
hitting Towns to Acquire Portion ;
of National Forests.

Washington, Aug. 23.-President
Wilson vetoed bill which would au-
thorize incorporated cities and towns
to acquire portions of national forests
for certain community uses. The bill
was aimed to amend an act of 1890
which permits cities and towns to &C.
ouire unreserved public lands.
National forest lands cannot be re-
ga1ded as suitable for disposition for
general purposes in the same way
that unreserved public lands are" the
president stated, in his veto message.
"But the most serious objection to the
bill is that it subjects the national for
est to disposition under a general
grant," he continued.

Deduction.

Ezra Haskins, constable of a New
England village, had an exalted opin-
ion of his ability as detective. He
also read everything he could find on
the career of Sherlock Holmes, until
he imagined that he had thereby ac-
uuired wonderful deductive abilities.
"Now, gentlemen" said he on one .oc-
casion to his assistants in a particular
case, 1--WE have traced these clues-the
footprints of the horse and the foot
prints of the man, right up here to this
stump. From the stump on there's
only the footprints Of the horse. Now,
gentlemen, the question arises: What
has become of the man?'

j Iandsturm.' :

| From the Hartford Cournnt.
Probably most editorial writer's in the
United States know that there is no
such word in the German language as
| 'landstrum." many American print
ers evidently think that there is. AT
any rate, you will find in half days S
reading Of our newspapers that land
sturm' is printed in: that distorted way
eight out of ten times. The Germans
say "struma" when they mean goiter,
and "strumpf'' when they mean stock
ing, but the land has neither a neck
to be decreased nor a foot to be COW
cred. 49,.
"Landsturm' is an ancient and digni-
fed word, and is associated with many
thrilling periods in the history of the
German states. 1t means a posse conf
tatus. the Latin term used lit English
for the power of a sheriff to call out
all the abfe-bodied men of his county
on special duty, or q general levy OF
all the men of nation, old and young,
when public danger threatens In
Germany, where military duty is re-
quired of all able-bodied men. as 1t is
in all the larger continental Euro
pean countries. the landsturm can
sweep in no unframed men except
they are mere boys. After more
than year of war. and with the
composing rooms of the country too
nearly agreed upon word which only
exists through error. it is time to bring
into vogue the real word, which is

National Bad Manners.

From the San Francisco Bulletin.
Bad manners are not, as some have
maintained. an exclusive attribute OF
high society True. high society is
unmannerly toward low and medium
society. toward its own servants and
toward it's own members. But bad
manners really begin with the working
classes and from there extend down
ward toward high society. The work
ing classes often push and crowd on
street cars. spit in public places. and
smoke while delicate women slowly
strangle. Their brethen. who have
