AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT

The Daily Times takes pardon able pride in the complete and accu, rate account of the proceedings of the Republican national convention at Chicago which it furnished it's read CTS. In addition to the reliable report of the Associated Press, through the courtesy of our townsman, George c. Hazelet, we were enabled to publish some sidelights as we'll as authenti- cated forecasts which proved most in teresting and enlightening to our clientele.
 MT. Hazelet was one of the delegates from Alaska to the convention, and also held the proxy of J. c. Mcbride as national committeeman, thus giving him access to the ''inner workings" ot the greatest political body that has ever assembled in the history of the country. That he was at all times in close touch with the situation was evidenced by his daily despatches tC the Times and for the service rendered the paper and the public we are truly grateful

orderly, constitutional government through the congress and the execu- tive, with their powers limited by the constitution under it's interpretation by the supreme court.
 It means a real return to that sim, plicity and economy befitting dem ocratic government" as mentioned in the Democratic platform of 1912 and never thought of by Democratic leader, ship since.
 Americanism means the abandon ment of all the schemes of political ized industry, of state socialism, of either the Prussianized or Russianized scheme of the exaggerated state, un- der which citizenship is only form of slavery to government.
 Americanism means a restoration, in public affairs, of the doctrines and ideals of Washington, Lincoln, McKin- ley and Roosevelt.

 In his determination to make the un-Americanized covenant a campaign issue President Wilson has thrown down the gage of battle, and it again becomes the duty and the privilege of the Republican party to make the fight for American ideals of nation ality.

AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION

The American Library Association was established forty-four years ago and is an organization made up O. 4000 librarians, all working to bring books to the public and the public to good books. When the war came, our government requested the association to take charge of furnishing reading matter to the army, the navy and the marine corps, and to all who had any part in the war, at home or abroad Soon libraries appeared, quietly and unostentatiously, with branches in the Red Cross houses and in the huts of the Knights of Columbus, the Y. M. c. A., the Y. w. c. A., the Jewish welfare board, the Salvation Army and the War Camp Community Service. Every arm of the United States ser vice was supplied with books for rec reation and books for study Books were carried close to the front line trenches and into the rest areas. Over 7,000000 volumes were distributed by this association of library workers Just pause moment and think what this service must have meant to the men in France, on the transports and the men in hospitals, to say nothing of those detained in camps on this side. There are men today using the libraries of the country who never be- fore realized the pleasure and the profit gained from book, as thou sands of letters from ex-service men will testify. So deeply appreciated by the government has this service of the American Library Association been that it's book service has been taken over as a basis for permanent library advantages to the army and navy.
 And now the association is seeking to widen it's scope and help the eA, 0OO,OOO people in our country who have no access to books by library service or but limited one. A sum of $2,OO0,- 900 is being sought by the association to carry on it's enlarged program. This fund is designed to last three years and is being raised not by an intensive drive but by the efforts of librarians, library trustees and those who realize to the fullest what a force for better citizenship the libraries of the country can be made to be.

OUR NEXT PRESIDENT

The Republican national convention at Chicago on Saturday nominated it's candidates for president and vice pres ident of the United States and made a wise selection in the party's stand ard bearers, in selecting United States Senator Warren G. Harding, of Ohio, and Governor Calvin Coolidge, of Massachusetts, respectively, for these high honors. There never was a time of a "big man," with constructive ideas, as it's chief executive, and Sen ator Harding may be truly said to pos sess the necessary qualifications to give the people the kind of an admin istratio that will result in general prosperity and at the same time be a credit to the nation. No better selec- tion for his running mate could have been made than in naming Governor Coolidge for the vice presidency. He has risen from the ranks of the masses, step by step, until today he stands forth prominently as one of the greatest opponents of American ism. And the keynote of the coming campaign is the single word Amer icanism;" upon this simple platform the Republican party can confidently stand
 Americanism means, as Lincoln de- clared in his first political announce ment, the protection and development of American industries and American resources.
 It means the development of an American merchant marine, not as a government charity, but as business enterprise carried on by American mi tiative and enterprise.
 It means the holding of all the terri tory now beneath the American flag not merely because of what that may mean to this nation commercially and from naval and military standpoint but because of the blessings that flow from American government to all the peoples who yield allegiance to the American flag.
 It means the establishment of the authority of the national government in industrial relations rather than the
 
 dictatorship, real or attempted, of any one class or element in industry It means turning the thought and effort of the American people away from Flu ropean problems of which they know little, to the solutoin of home prob lens which heretofore they have so successfully solved that this republic, through the mere power of successful example, has been the most powerful influence in world politics.
 Americanism means the restoration in practive as well as theory, of the three independent and coordinate branches of government established in the American constitution It means an end of executive dictatorship, real or attempted, and the resumption of

ESCAPES TO FALL


For sometime re-
ports have been rife
that all was not well
at Christian College
The girls have appear
ed tired and dejaded /;
even the campus has
had a depressed look
Things came to a eli
max last night when
Pearl,ne McElstein, a
college belle, fell from
a drain pipe while at
tempting to escape
from the female pris-
on for a short spin In
yoncoughman's new
cerise roadster.
Desperate Desmond
Bee, president Of the
college, said when In
teryiewed by a scan
dal seraper for the
Peerade Xtra, that this
was the last straw
Unless something is
done to curb the girls
in their use Of the
drain pipe as means OF
exit, the campus will
soon be a place OF
mere holes where they
have fallen
This is not the first
time thst this has oc-
cured he said, but
heretofore, all the girls
who have fallen have
been lightweights. and
they have not been
missed. Miss McEl-
STEMS weight, howev-
er, Immediately dis
lodged two bricks from
the chimney when she
fell.

We had sent US last week by Hon.
A. V. Louthan, Chief State Statisti-
clan, an address signed by each men,
Der of the State Board of Equaliza-
tion, covering six or seven pages of
legal size paper, with the request or
the trust that we find space in The
Progress for the address. The same
address was to be read before the
Quarterly sessions of the County
courts last Monday. It would have
been wholly impossible for this paper
to have given space to the address
and besides that what's the use? The
assessment of property at value"
has been made by the assistant stat
isticians and has been or is to be
made again by the county assessors,
with the promise that the tax rate
is to come down in proportion as the
assessment has been put up. The
thing is done and we will see the re-
suit. Each and every taxpaying citi-
zen should just "sit still in the boat"
If property is assessed at over pro-
ducing value, make your protest to
the county equalization board. If un-
der that value, be man enough to sug-
gest the increase yourself. What we
want is equalization.

We trust the "Progressives"-
ing forward toward God knows what
since they have almost won in the
matter of female suffrage, do not
thing too severely of us because of
our oft-expressed sentiments on the
subject. We respectfully ask them to
remember that we came of that age
and Of that class of people who abom-
mated the thought of women in pub
lie ife-much less political life. The
type of woman to whom we owe our
existence and early training regarded
Miss Susan Anthony as a masculine
crank, who having missed the most
natural hence the highest estate of
woman, took the only tack possible to
keep her from being simply an un-
noticed spinster. While there has
been much printers ink used in advo-
cacy of female suffrage, the move
ment has been confined to the city
woman of more money than useful
ness in the world, aped by compar-
atively few of her country town sis
tiers, but up to now the country wo-
man of the South has had no voice,
wanted no voice in the clamor for
votes for women. Oh well, we older
ones will soon be out Of the way and
then the new woman, aided and abet-
ted by the new man, can proceed to
make life any sort of mess" they
will-but we feel to thank God that
when American social life reaches the
bottom and the upward turn is again
taken, there is going to be left
enough of the seed of the right sort
to again restore right living and a
sane view of life.

Toward the close of a splendid edi-
torial under the caption "Luxuries
have the right Of way" in the Com
mercial Appeal of last Sunday, in
which was startlingly portrayed the
conditions under which the people are
living in this day Of dollar-chasing
and dollar spending we notice this
little paragraph: IF we had the OPP
portunity for liquor, along with this
other condition, then, indeed, would
the condition have already engulfed
US. 1t is good thing for US at pres
ent that there is little liquor in the
country" This reminds us of state
ment that we have already made, to-
wit: The man who says The Progress
has not honestly worked for prohibit
tion is either fool or liar-yet we
have lived in Lexington at a time
when on first Monday afternoon
two hundred and fifty men, in vary
ing stages Of drunkenness, could be
seen on the public square, mounted
or mounting their horses, to 60 home,
and at the same time the country was
full of Christian kindness and neigh
borliness where there is no longer a
pretence of either. We heard man
speak not long ago of his wife as
zone of the most consecrated of wo-
men," We knew that woman and
knew that she would sell five cents
worth of turnip tops over the fence
to her nearest neighbor. Still some
of the preachers tell us that that the
world-the people-are growing bet
ter. We say that it's Gods blessing
that we are not as drunk as we used
to be and at the same time as mean
as we now are.

The Irish seem to have almost
reached the decision that they will
not live longer under British rule-or
misrule, so far as Ireland is concern
ed; that death is preferable to contin-
ued subsection to England. With
that kind of spirit Ireland will either
get loose from England or make John
Bull pay dear price for continued
English domination over the Emerald
Isle.

With each 81 copies Of the Lexing.

With each 50 copies Of the Lexing-
ton papers now costing so cents for
the paper alone, to continue the sub
scription price at 800 per year is
simply an exhibition Of business fool
hardiness-just as certain as a man
is business fool to pay $1.00 for an
article in one house when he can
step to another house and get the
same article for 20 cents. We are one
of the fools and there are several of
the other kind.
