there are people in Memphis who have

Senator Harding will not make a
noisy campaign. He will make clean

He win stay here in Washington,
cleaning up his work at his desk until
after the 4th of July. Then he will
return to his little home town of Ma.

most of the summer he will be found

could hardly imagine Washington, or
Adams. or Lincoln. or Grant. or Gar

try-attending the fairs and races and
picnics. appealing for votes. I be-
lieve you will not find Mr. Harding on
the political stump very much.
But you will have ample opportuii-
ity of learning much about Mr.. Har-
ding, what he has stood for what lie
stands for and what kind of course
he will follow as President of the
United States. You can judge much
better what man will do in the
future by what he has done in the
past than you can by the things he
tells you in prediction promises.
The more you learn OF the life of Mr..
Harding the more confidence you will
have in him.

Mr.. Harding: II he had not been the
nominee he would have been like
Frank Lowden-oge OF the first men
to congratulate the nominee. He
would not be going around with a
glum face trying to decide whether he
would support the nominee or start
a new party. Mr.. Harding is Re-
publican without question or doubts
and he has faith in the principles of
the Republican party and always sup
ports its nominee. He is the kind of a
Republican whom Republicans like to
support for high office.
| will miss my guess if he does not
carry every state north of the Mason

Morning Grain Gossip.


FURNISHED by B. C. Christopher & Coz
Chicago, July Fl Tribune-Weather
conditions are regarded as the leading
next few weeks. Hot weather in the corn
belt for few days will not kill the corn
crop and the present is the kind that old
traders and farmers tell of as good corn
weather. Each day brings the spring
wheat crop nearer maturity, and condi-
tons are described by one northwestern
man as SO uncertain that it will take
threshfng returns to tell the real story.
Unless there is marked change in the
attitude Of the public in regard to the
buying side of all grains, 1t is generally
believed that it may be difficult TO main
tain crop scare bulges for some time to
come. Closest students Of conditions re-
gard the coarse grain situation as ex-
tremely bearish in view Of the excellent crop
outlook, over 5000 100000 bushels coupled
with prospects that farm reserves OF corn
at the close Of the season win be abnor-
ma1ly large. This with the decreased feed
ing of livestock, is expected to result in
much grain being marketed. which with a
tight money situation will make load
to carry. One of the leading crop au-
thorities is credited with saying that IN
less corn is badly damaged in the near fu-
ture, final returns are likely to be the
largest on record.
An advance of practically three bushels
per acre is made by the government In
estimating the corn crop from July to Oe-
tober.

MRS. JOSIAH JORDAN IS INJURED.
Badly Cut When Car Is Struck by
Negro Motorist.

Mrs. Josiah Jordan. wife of the
county school superintendent, was in
jured about 9 o'clock last night when
the Ford sedan in which she was rid
ing collided with a Cole driven by Jess
Mcdowell, negro, 307 Kansas avenue.
The accident occurred at Fifteenth
and Monroe streets. Mrs. Jordan was
cut about the head and arms and suf-
fered a fractured knee.
George Stone, 2724 Pennsylvania
avenue, who says he owns the Ford
and that he was driving it, was re-
ported unhurt, as were Josiah Jor-
dan and Mrs. c. D. Bliss. the other
occupants. Stone says he was about
to turn north on Monroe and that
Mcdowell drove onto his side of the
street. Mcdowell insists that the car
was driven by Mrs. Jordan and that
when he saw it approaching in an err
ratio manner, slowed down. Unable
to pass it on the right. he swerved to
the left. he said. The right front
wheels and tenders of both cars were
smashed. The cars were not being
driven rapidly.

TEXAS HOLDS PRIMARY TODAY
Light Vote Expected-WhoIe Fight
Centers About Governor Hobby.


Dallas, Tex, July 24.-While no
opinion on the total ballot was forth
coming from candidates headquarters
here. indications early today pointed
toward light vote in the state Dem
ocratic primary. Edwin Hobby, vice
chairman of the state Democratic ex-
ecutive committee. however, expressed
the opinion that the total vote would
not exceed 100000 Two years ago.
the total was 67s.494 votes cast for
governor.
Optimistic predictions were running
rife at headquarters of all guberna-
torfaI candidates. as voters went to the
polls at S:27 q. m.
Absence of contests for the offices
of attorney general. state treasurer, su-
perintendent of public instruction and
land commissioner, has resulted in one
of the shortest ballots for Texas in
many years. Eleven offices are being
nominated.
The other seven places have pro-
duced twenty candidates. There are
four aspirants for governorship.
There are six contests among the
eighteen congressional places.
The question of calling for submits
sion to the legislature of the home
ownership amendment. which was
defeated at the last state primary.
will be included on the ballot.
