And, by the way, do you know
there are boys in the big cities who

little snow comes the street-cleaning
department gets busy and sweeps it
up, before it gets a chance to melt
into slush.
In the country the winter wheat
needs it. and the ground takes care of
it. But in the city it just means slop
and slush. SO they sweep it up and
carry it away and uncover the ugly
pavement as soon us they can.
But they let you keep your snow in
the country. When warm wind
comes along it will pack fine. and you
can have your snow-men, and your
snow forts. and your SNOWFALL battles.

is not difficult TO infer from the
wording OF this compact that those
makers would have been absolutely
opposed 10 a chief executive making
pledges to foreign countries without
regard TO the Senate.
We know that Wilson virtually
did this: that he boosted he had so
contrived the matter that the Sem
ate would be compelled to accept
his dictum. Cox has taken up the
fight TO compel the United States
Senate to disregard its responsible
ity and obey the mandate of the
President Right here is an issue Of
very serious import; this alone is
sufficient reason for his defeat
II Cox should be successful the
United States Senate would be vir-
tually deprived of one Of the most
important functions assigned to it
and an autocratic power would be
conferred on the President such as
never was intended and never should
be permitted. We want Presidents
to live up to their oath to defend the
Constitution. Certainly no man
avowedly seeking to pervert that
Constitution should receive the sup
port of the American people.

Class Oespotism.

Gompers declares the Russian
soviet methods of handling labor
"monstrous," and well he may. In
der the dictation of class men are
compelled to enlist in the labor army
and then are set to work as others are
set to fight, this at the dictation of
the class in control. A worse tyranny
could scarcely be conceived; no won
der Gompers finds it "monstrous" and
is strongly opposed to bolshevism
Yet this same Gompers is advocating
a policy that leads to the bolshevism
he denounces, the policy Of class rule.
He urges labor as a class to vote for
the party and the candidates that will
yield most to the requests Of labor.
In this appeal is no recognition of
other merits or dement's, simply has
this man given labor what labor
asked. OF course that aims at moth
ing less than class despotism.

Better Look at Home

Replying to slurs, such as that Of
Candidate F. D. Roosevelt that the
nomination of Harding was by the
assistance of Penrose, Lodge and
Root and men Of that type, the Re-
publican publicity association re-
marks that Mr.. Penrose has been in
public life 36 years, Mr.. Lodge 40
years and Mr.. Root 81 years, that
they have been life long members Of
the Republican party and there has
been no word of criticism Of their
absolute fidelity. It recalls to mind
that in 1914, when Penrose was last
elected he carried the State by 250,-
900 Notwithstanding bitter progress
SION detection and against A. Mitch
ell Palmer and Clifford Pinchot who
had both the ability and the oppor-
tunity to detect any irregularity;
that Lodge carried Massachusetts,
by $4,000 the year Hughes carried it
by 10000. Mention is made of their
distinguished public records, and
there being no question respecting
their patriotism or soundness of
judgment the conclusion is that they
are entitled to have opinions and to
express them in a Republican or
other convention to which they may
properly come. Furthermore:
when the Democratic campaign
managers can produce in behalf Of
Murphy, Tagsart, Brennan and Nu-
gent a public record such as that
made by Penrose. Lodge and Root
