locally, are furnished by Ne broker

that the proposition will receive fav-

The Exercise of Authority.

The new police force in Boston is
making good. Everybody in town is
praising it. Included in the member
ship are many ex-soldiers-men who
saw service overseas. They have taken
to their duties easily, and are dis
charging them satisfactorily.
Gov. Coolidge is among the eulogists
OF the new organization. In an in
terview, in which he recapitulated his
and the towns difficulties at the time
Of the strike, he is quoted as follows:
"In the frs days of the strike, when
it became known that | would not
surrender, would not permit single
striker to return to his job, powerful
agents of unions made this threat to
all of the authorities concerned: we
will destroy you. You don't know our

Shop Early and Shop Soon!

AS one of the means of saving coal,
in the present emergency of shortage
due to the strike, the merchants of
Washington have patriotically agreed
to shorten their hours, opening their
stores at noon and remaining open for
business until o'clock. This is a
heavy sacrifice, for the change comes
at the period OF heaviest business in
the year, with the Christmas shopping
in full swing 1t is now up to the pco-
pie of the city to cooperate in this
endeavor TO exc ont the diminished
fuel supply by adjusting to the
changed store hours and doing their
shopping with regard for the curtailed
opening schedule.
Only few more days are left be-
fore Christmas. An enormous amount
of buying remains to be done. 1t can
all be done, comfortably and in good
order. if the people will plan their
shopping trips with regard for the ne
eessities. Those who are not employed
during the day can go to the stores in
the early afternoon, avoiding them in
the ninety minutes that remain be
tween the closing of the departments
and the closing of the stores.
1t is always to be remembered that
very large part of the holiday buy
ing is done in Washington by people
who cannot get into the stores before
80 o'clock. This city is filed with
government employees who have no
opportunity to make their Christ
mas gift selections until after their
Office hours. The other thousands who
have no such limitations upon their
time should. for their own sakes as
well as in consideration of the others
who are restricted in their time. go
to the shops before 4:30 o'clock.
This is matter Of mutual benefit,
after all. Those who get into the
stores shortly after 12 o'clock will be
best served. Those who, with earlier
opportunity, go there after the de-
partmcnt closing hour will find the
aisles and counters congested, the
clerks distracted, the stock in confu-
sion. 1t is due 10 the merchants of
the city, who have so promptly and
fully complied with the government $
coal-saving rules in this grave crisis,
that they be given the fullest support
to enable them to meet the demands
made upon them at this trying time
with the least possible strain.
Shop early in the shortened day and
shop soon!

dure is the correct procedure. Men in
authority must exercise the authority
intrusted to them. In that way only
can the country continue to be "a go
ing concern"
OF course, this country must con-
| tinue to be 4 going concern. Were 1t
to falter and confess impotency under
any circumstances, the disastrous ef-
| feet would not he confined to Amer
lea. All the world would feel it. Onr
governmental venture is on gigantic
scale. and for some time now has been
under world wide observation. If II
should fall into hclplcssncss, where
world men anywhere seeking to di-
rc heir own affairs turn for inspira-
tion and sympathy
In this country the law is, and
should be, the more binding because
the people are the source of the law.
In obeying it, they obey themselves.
In violating it, they injure themselves.
When they desire the law changed the
process is at hand. and simple. But
always the majority must rule. While
a law remains on the books ard there
is appeal to it, it must be executed.
Our recent difficulties have been,
and cur present difficulties are, very
great. Authority has seldom hitherto
been challenged in so bold way, or
by organizations so strong. But the
response has been firm, and out of
that fact issues encouragement for the
future. If those in authority will con
time to be firm with those who show
contempt for authority, the public will
be well served.
One of the rewards of the exercise
of authority is the approval in time
of those who have challenged. They
come to see upon reflection the folly
of their course, and to share in the
good growing out of their defeat. The
law is for ALL When it is fouted sue
cessfully, all suffer; when obeyed, all
benefit. There are so many instances
to prove this, the assertion requires
no argument.

TO the man who had made the record
upon which the party was appealing
to the country.
In 1908 Mr. Roosevelt was the domi-
mating influence not only in his own
party, but in the country. Hence,
the readiness with which his party
yielded to him in the matter of the
nomination that year. He named Mr..
Taft, and Taft it was, and the country
ratified the choice.
In 1912 Mr.. Taft's denomination was
both logical and just. Had the party
thrown him over it would have com
mitted suicide. Mr. Roosevelt, who
was trying to supplant him, had said
that the party had outlived its useful
ness. How would it have been pos
sible, therefore, to elect Mr.. Roosevelt
President that year as the republican
candidate in campaign soeketed not
in principles but in personal ambition
and opportunism
Ard so it came about that those
conventions nicely registered what
was known 20 he practically the partys
will. The men stood nominated il ad
vance. But not so now. There Is no
reason to assume that all the issues
that will enter into the next campaign
are now in existence; and certainly no
one candidate for the nomination to-
day stands head and shoulders above
all the rest.
Using a phrase q little ovcrworked
these times, it may be said that at
present all is in the lap of the gods.
And happily so for the party. Six
months of thought and labor should
show in strong platform and strong
ticket, both strictly up-to-dat
