Browsing Round in
Politics
By LABERT ST. CLAIR.

Farley Christensen. who got the
third party nomination at Chicago
after Bob La Toilette had turned it
down, may not get many votes this
fall. but he certainly will be an en-
tertaining sort of campaigner.
Folks who know Christensen out in
Salt Lake declare that he is one Of
the most likeable fellows in the
whole country and anybody who
thinks that he will open his meet
ings by throwing a brick through
the plate glass window OF the First
National Bank and close it by shin
ming up a lamppost and waving
red flag is all wrong.
Christensen is radical enough for
his party, all right, but he has
vein of humor as wide as the Mis-
sissippi River, and he gets by
through laughing in public instead
OF conniving with bomb plotters in
the rear of a red ink establishment.
The candidate stands more than
feet and is described as being
almost as bulky as the late Ollie
James. For years he has been a
power in the Elks lodge, and at one
time or another has held high office
III tue vi bdhlLdNlOh. 4lt - d bdNlAt
lor. Called upon to make a speech
at any time or place he can deliver
the goods right out OF hand.
So often has Christensen changed
parties that he has friends in all
of them. He started out to be d
Republican and at one time became
a county prosecutor and later a
secretary of Republican State
committee. Switching to the Pro-
gressive party. he went to the
legislature and there was candi-
date for speaker. However, he was
not elected, and on that occasion
he sulked, refusing to lend his
presence to that dignified body tOt
several weeks after he was beaten.
But he got over that. Democrats
/ out in Utah thought until recenug
that he was one of their number,
but he never qualified with them.
His nomination by the new party
+ was somewhat of a surprise to his
friends in the old parties.
1t is certain that there never will
i be a scandal about Christensen s
/ personal contributions to his own
campaign fund. He has no money
to speak of. incidentally, he was
named after a Mormon apostle.
! The unexpected has happened
, Pos tmaster General Burleson has
been caught in the rain without an
umbrella. 1t happened in Wash
lincton on St. Swithin's Day.
For thirty years. according to our
most reliable weather reports, rain
or shine, the Postmaster General has
carried an umbrella, taped as tight
as a race horses leg, it may be
added.
AS a result of this peculiar habit
THE Postmaster General has come in
for more or less kidding. In fact
he came in for almost as much pub
ilicity regarding his ever-present
umbrella at San Francisco during
the convention as he did for hi:
noble efforts in behalf of the party
Returning to Washington, ht
passed up the umbrella temporarily
That day it rained pitchforks.

New York, August 4.-Broadway

the tea cup had the old wallop and
IL he winked again II meant he

Since prohibition the wink has

There is one visitor who will never

The waiter had served the editor

cial mission and returned the other

place for lunch. The editor had
heard abroad tales of the Eighteenth
amendment and its ridiculous en-

So he was in a receptive mood
| when at the close of his luncheon
the waiter bent over him with the
| question:: Would you care for a lit
| tie something?" Nothing with a
kick, of course, tthis last provision
accompanied by wink and broad
GRIM. The editor would.
The waiter glided away and re-

contained a villainous looking mix
ture.

when politics and the tariff are not

General Richards, but refused TO
avail itself of the time -honored
custom in the British army, which
permits every regiment to inscrioe
