insipid plank that was finally drafted
into the platform. The Globe DEM

Here is the greatest question that
has ever come before the American
people, yet the Republican party
evades the issue it presents. and ex-
presses neither a position nor a pur-
pose. except in a general approval OF
the principle of agreement among
nations to preserve the peace of the
world. The treaty plank is said to
be q compromise so wordsd that no

name as its presidential candidate It

certainty the trust magnates, big

For his running mate Governor
Coolidge, OF Massachusetts, is little
known nationally. He sprung into
prominence over night about a year
ago by opposing the police of Boston,
allying themselves with Labor or
CARNATIONS and when the police wen,
out on strike he called out the state
militia to maintain order. There arc
mighty few governors of sovereign
states of the nation who would have
acted any different, but he was the
pioneer in that particular and eli
course got all the notoriety. On the
strength of that he was reelected
governor by an overwhelming ma
jority. His opposition to organized
labor is certainly his chief claim to
preferment.
