HARDING TO THE FARMERS.

Senator Harding's speech to the
farmers OF the country, delivered at
the Minnesota State Fair, is commend
able not only for the subject matter
and the constructive craftsmanship
which IT contains, but for the calm and
dignfhed tone which prevails through
out the entire address Nothing could
more thoroughly impress intelligent
people with the difference in the sena-
tor and his opponent and their qgall6-
cations for the presidency than Senator
Harding's comprehensive discussion OF
ths agricultural problems Of the ma
ton and the solution which must be
applied to them and the political ha-
rangue delivered at the same place by
Governor Cox-Sioux City (Ia) Jour

hotel column of the washington Post

The people are shouting the praises Of
the President for having preserved
peace in the United States. Our honor
has remained unsullied. The slogan
He Kept Us Out of War will be the
most effective argument the Democrats
can use in the campaign. Americanism
has been pre-empted by the President,
and every other problem Of national
import has been met squarely and sat
isfactorIly."
This tends to show the caliber Of
Governor Cox. With him It is any
thing to win, any sort of catch phrase,
slogan or anything to deceive or fool
the people.

The heavy rains of the last few days
demonstrate in the most fercible way
the need of good roads Throughout
the county. Motor traffic over the
country roads was almost impossible
the first of the week Little as one
may think OF II, the condition OF the
roads cost the county thousands OF dol
lars. Farmers were unable in many
instances to bring their perishable
produce to market, finding 1t wellnigh
impossible to drive their cars through
the mud, and consequently sustaining
considerable loss in the aggregate.
Merchants and other business men also
suffered loss from the condition of the
roads. York county has an act, passed
nt the 1919 session of the General AS
scmbly. providing for the issuance of
township bonds for road purposes, but
unfortunately only two townships In
the county have improved upon the
opportunity the act affords to secure
good roads. and in only one OF these
constructed from the sale OF township
bonds. But one of these days the peo-
pie are going to tire of the mud
tax and then good roads. will be
built. if not by bond issues. otherwise.
The matter could quickly he brought
to n head by a number of influential
men in each township cooperating to
influence the voters to provide tho

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Dunng the last Presidential
election, when for days ii was uncer-
tain which candidate had been Sc
lected by the Electoral College. the re-
suit hinged upon the vote in the State
OF California. This state had thirteen
electoral votes. which. when finally de-
cided for President Wilson. gave him
the election by 277 electoral votes to
2b4 for Mr.. Hughes The vote cast by
me people in California was 466 200
Tor President Wilson and 462,394 for
Mr.. Hughes. The total popular vote in
the country was 9,129,269 for Mr..
Wilson and S,547 1928 for Mr.. Hughes.
difference of 581 ,941 in favor of our
President
Now, suppose very possible thing
had happened and CALIFORNIA; popular
vote had been reversed. Mr.. Hughes
would have obtained 466,2O0 votes and
Mr.. Wilson 462,394. The thirteen cleo
torai votes would have gone to MIR.
Hughes and he would have been elected
President. MIR. Hughes, therefore,
would have been elected with total
popular vote of 8,b51,134 and 267 cleo
toral votes, while Mr. Wilson would
have been defeated with 9,125,463 votes
and 264 electoral votes. In other words.
even though Mr. Wilson would have
had over hall million votes more than
Mr.. Hughes he would still have been
defeated. Therefore.

No Danger in Agitation
Amendment by Minority

Right to Alter System

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Among the platform contest
letters that have been printed was one
signed "Jurist," advocating n limit to
amendments to the Constitution. The
writer contends that the fact that the
Constitution can be amended causes
agitation for amendments chat may
not lawfully be adopted" and may
cause agitation for overthrow Of the
government
He does not seem TO realize that the
the people want it to be. If they want
to overthrow their present form of
government and have some other form
they are entirely within their rights in
dong So Amendments cannot be
passed by minority. SO long as hose
advocating reform of government stick
10 constitutional means Of doing SO we
nave nothing to fear. for they recog
nlze the power OF the majority of the
people to rule What we should fear
are those who would overthrow the
entire Constitution and set up some
other form of government, not by
amendments but by revolution.
The Constitution, if in need of any
amendment reform, should be more
easily amended rather than otherwise.
England is without a written constitu-
tion. Parliament amends the constitu-
tion every time 1t passes law, for the
constitution is the laws Of Parliament.
Yet with this system England in the
past has thrown off the yoke of tyran-
nical kings, abolished the power Of
the House of Lords and become as
truly democracy as the United States
We're our Constitution unamcndabl we
still would have slavery
Perhaps when We can look at the
question through the perspective of
time some other more recently passed
| amendments also will be viewed in the
ight Of positive reforms.
