Nominating a President.

The voters are keenly alive to the
historic Importance of the two nat
ional Conventions A president Yields
power not exceeded by any sove'
reign on earth. His authority may
be less autocratic, but he is at the
head of more energetic and resource
full government.
The tendency of the times is to de-
mand responsible leadership from the
president. so that his power and dom
mating influence constantly tends to
increase. This being the case, one
can realize what fateful RESPONSE.
bility is placed on the man who makes
the nomination for this office. "
Yet while the voters are all Keen
" interested in what is done, the great
majority were Indifferent to the pri-
maries and took no part in them. The
man who hangs around the bulletin
board to find out what his represen-
tatives did at Chicago probably was
too listless to get out on caucus night
and vote for the delegates who are to
exercise this responsibility. If the
country is ruled by bosses and ma.
chimes, the individual voters indif-
ference is the cause of it. ~

KENDALL MAKES FINE SPEECH.

Last Friday was a great day at the
national convention. 1t was the day
set apart for presentation of candi-
dates before the convention and the
nominating speeches were certainly
enough to insure treat to those who
were fortunate enough to hear them.
It cannot be said that any Of the
speeches surpassed or even equalled
those of Ingersoll in presenting Blaine
as a candidate for president, or of Gar.
field in presenting Sherman as can
didate for the office. The speech of
Governor Whitman, of New York, in
presenting Hughes as candidate this
year was somewhat disappointing. 1t
was difficult for him to be heard in all
parts of the coliseum. Governor
Willis. of Ohio, in presenting Sen
ator Burton, made great hit and
pleased the audience immensely. He
has fine voice which reached every
section of the hall and in addition had
happy way of expressing himself.
Butler, of New York, in presenting
the name of Elihu Root for president.
acquitted himself in a highly capable
manner. His speech was a gem from
a literary standpoint and we'll framed
for describing the great candidate
which it was his honor to present to
the convention.
Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts,
presented the name OF Senator Weeks
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1916-06-14

of that state and made perhaps the
shortest speech of any of the spell
binders. 1t was a good speech be-
cause Senator Lodge is incapable OF
making a poor speech. but it lacked
the fervor and enthusiasm Which nc
might have put into it in view OF inc
merit of his candidate.
From the standpoint of oratory we
think without question the best speech
made on the occasion was by Hon
Nate Kendall, who presented the name
of Senator Cummins. From his frs
utterances to the close of his speech
he held the undivided attention of del
egates and visitors alike, and it was
easy to tell from the fact that every
one leaned forward to catch ever!
word of the speaker that he was MAX
ing an impression. 1t was certainly
great speech and his friends were
proud of him.

progressive party in session at the
same time and that a spirit Of har
mony was to be carried to the extreme
limit, then it is easy to account for
the want of demonstration which has
marked the proceedings of the con
vention on former occasions. 1t is not
to be presumed because there was
less demonstration than usual that
there was want of interest on the
part of those taking part in the con.
vention, because there never was
time when a body of men was more
concerned to prevent hasty or ill.con
Isidered action which might threaten
the harmony which was uppermost Ill
the minds of those concerned. The
Headers are certainly to be congratu-
Lated for the ingenuity and diplomacy
displayed in avoiding all offensive
conduct and keeping such control Of
the convention that the people were
enabled to work out their program 70
their own satisfaction. It was a con,
vention of the people and not one OF
the bosses of the party. The leaders
were content to let the people rule.
but at the same time were able to keep
the convention well in hand and pre-
vent hasty and ill-considered action.
The nomination of Hughes for pres
ident was a victory for the people and
not of the leaders, because 1t was I'm.
derstood during the convention that
some of the leaders at least had other
preferences, but whatever the conv!c'
lions they may have had. they were
held in allegiance in order that the PEG.
pie themselves could express their
choice. The people had decided on
Hughes for president because he came
more nearly meeting their require
ments than any other candidate and
the final selection was made almost
unanimously and there was no sore.
ness on the part of those engaged in
making the selection of candidate.
The best Of feeling prevailed not only
among the delegates, but on the part
Of people generally in attendance at
the convention after the nomination
was made.
Mr.. Hughes stands for the best on
all moral questions and the more his
life isf studied the more Of good the
people will find in the man. He is
sound ON political questions as his
short letter of acceptance indicates
and we predict that when the campaign
opens the republicans of the country
will take delight in following their
standard bearer. ....
Charles w. Fairbanks, of Indiana
who was selected for the running mate
Of Mr.. Hughes, is too we'll known to
require an introduction to the Amer.
lean people. He has on a former oc.
casion filled the office of vice presi.
dent and in character, education and
experience we have a right to assume
that if elected he will fill the office as
he has all other public positions, with
credit to himself and the country.

WAR INCREASES INCOMES.

Our war order prosperity has Great
ed another source of jubilation for the
democratic administration. AS foretold
by the republicans some time ago.
huge exports OF war munitions to
Europe have so increased the incomes
of stockholders that large increase
over the estimated revenues from the
income tax Is looked for this year
The administration is using this to be.
cloud the tariff issue, and not refer
ence is made to the Underwood tariff
law as failure in collecting revenues
at the ports. The income tax will pay
some $40, 100000 more than was esti-
mated. But the voters Of the country
will not be fooled by this state of al.
fairs. The tariff tax is paid by the for
eigner. The democrats have given UP
their threadbare argument that the
protective tariff affects the cost OF liv-
ing. The income tax and the war tax
are direct taxes paid out of the peck
cts of our own people, and the increase
over the estimated sum, caused by the
war, is temporary in it's nature. Should
the cessation of war find us still lab
oring under a democratic tariff law,
competition from abroad would SO d.
minish incomes that the income tax
collections would fall far short of any
estimate heretofore made by the pro-
ponents of the tax. In addition to this,
the huge percentage of duty free
goods would still further reduce the
revenues That is exactly what was
happening before the war broke out.
The man who permits the democratic
party to use this war order prosperity
to fool him, is indeed blind to his own
interests. -t.-.t -.L j

The REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

The republican national convention
which concluded its labors at Chicago
o4Saturday morning is to be congrat-
ulated for the splendid work it did in
the work Of selecting candidates for
president and vice president, and in
the platform which it promulgated.
The convention this year was not of
that riotous character as the one of
four years ago when delegates upon
the floor of the convention were so di-
vided in sentiment and so hostile as
to engage in personal encounters of a
dfsgraceful character The sole pur-
pose this year seemed to be to promote
harmony between the progressive and
the regular wings of the party. 1t
was said during the convention that
there did not seem to be the usual
amount of fsenthusiasm found at ma
tional convention, but when it is con-
sidered that a grave responsibility
rested upon the leaders of the party
to- see that nothing was done to irri.
