of Wisconsin, the Republican party
has a candidate against whom not a
word of objection can be raised on
the ground of character or of per-
sonal fitness. He is an experienced
public man. of approved discretion
Even the one reproach that some
have FASTENED to urge against him,
namely. that he has followed the
lead of the masters of the Senate,
signifies in this case that he has fol-
lowed the course which has saved the
country in a great emergency and
kept the nation on an even keel of
Americanism. If, therefore. there is
a failing in Senator Harding's record,
il leans to the side of virtue His
record is clear and clean. He is a
man of the people, strongly human.
trained in the school of homely vir-
tues, and expressive of our soundest
spontaneous cultivation. He may be
depended on, if elected, to represent
the national ideals, to defend with
sincerity the nations honor in any
test, and to have in mind the coun-
try's industrial and economic needs.
He appears worthy Of the support
which, after deliberate thought. the
leaders and spokesman of the party
are cordially giving.

The Chicago Nominations
(Boston Transcript)


The sober second thought of the
country-personal preferences and
personalized ideals now put aside I'M
der the stress of a defeat in the con-
Vention common to all the popular
leaders-is favorable to the Chicago
nominations. AS has happened so
many times before. a middle course.
upon which the strong sentiment of
the masses of the party had in no
way centred, has been adopted. The
popular slant" was followed only in
the case of the nomination of Gov
ernor Coolidge for Vice President.
This result has been destructive. for
the moment, of what may we'll be
called the saving enthusiasms of the
nation: but it nevertheless follows
the path of prudence, and in a strik-
ing and satisfactory way it comedies.
We believe, not only with the advan-
tage Of the Republican party but
with the safety and. the lasting good
Of the nation.
In Senator Harding of Ohio, the
compromise candidate who received

ceived it in the end with hearty I'M

Scaling Names"

Unless Dr. Butler has evidence that
nowhere has appeared, his attack on
the supporters Of General Wood was
ill-advised and unjust. General Wood
had loyal support from Maine dele
gates and to charge them with COL
fusion with munitions makers and
stock gamblers is worse than absurd.
We are not surprised at General
Woods reply. although a different
choice Of words might have suf1iced.
DR.. Butler should present proofs to
substantiate his charges; otherwise
he will find the Generals charge irk-
some, to say the least. 1t already is
quite apparent that the learned doc
tor became FESTIVE under the imputa-
ton that he was but a pawn in the
game. but why should he go to such
pains to verify it as he surely has
done if found unable to produce his
proofs? Certainly he cannot truth
fully say the poll made by the Lit
erary Digest and which corresponded
with the primary results, was bought
We can conceive Of very rich
man wishing to contribute whaSis a
big sum with as much sincerity and
no greater personal sacrifice than a
contribution Of ten dollars would be
for some Of the rest of us. On the
other hand this matter Of contribu-
ton should be regulated. In that
view General Wood concurs and he
must be aware that his candidacy
was hampered rather than helped, on
the whole, by the amount of money
spent in his behalf. Senator john
son and DR.. Butler. however, are no.
wise assisting constructively to bring
about such regulation unless they
support their charges with evidence.
Courage is required and public
duty is performed by one graphing
with a law-breaker and bringing him
to justice, but vociferously yelling
stop thief" to cover up ones own
predicament is a contemplate pro-
ceeding. When this fact is fully
realized there may be fewer assumed
reformers and more of the genuine
variety.
1t may not be inappropriate to re-
mark that Messrs. Harding and Cool
idge are not implicated in the charge
Of extravagant expense nor have
they brought charges against others.
Furthermore there is an impression.
which seems to be gaining. that in
the matter Of practical reform they
are both we'll qualified and well dis
posed. In short Republicans have an
admirable ticket and there is ample
reason why they should quit calling
names" and loyalty support it.

G. A. r.

G. A. r.
The Maine department Of the
Grand Army of the Republic which is
holding its annual encampment in
this city represents some 1900 Maine
men who were part Of the momen-
tous events of the years from 1861 to
1865. Through the lapse Of nearly
sixty years which separates those
stirring days from the present the
soldiers who came back have kept
the faith and despite failing strength
and thinning ranks, have lived close
to the principles they vowed to up
hold.
The vivid scenes that were enacted
on the fields of the South will never
pass from the memories Of those who
were in them. but the passing Of time
has mercifully dimmed the horrors
Of war with a softening haze. The
physical hurts of the soldiers have
long since become only scars but the
empty sleeves and artificial limbs
have through all the years been 81
lent witnesses of the fierceness Of
their struggles.
In spite of years and impaired
health the G. A. r. is in spirit as
young and sturdy as ever and has
gone on record with this proud re-
solve, That the Grand Army Of the
Republic shall live as long as one
comrade remains upon this earth"
The address of the Maine Depart
ment commander voiced the same
spirit when he said:
THE fact that we were saved in
the midst Of so many perils should be
a solemn admonition to US to so order
our lives that when the final sum-
mons comes we may march down to
the dark river across which stretches
the invisible pontoon. with a firm and
unfaltering faith that on the other
side there is no enemy to dispute the
passage"
It Is Of such sublime faith and
firm determination that this nation
was made and preserved to US. Let
us ponder the example Of the G. A.

Not Due to Ignorance

Labor organizations short com

conditions there. British labor has

which Lenin admits is necessary to

where they are compelled actually to
work
In possession Of such knowledge it
is understandable that the committee
of the convention at Montreal should
hesitate to recommend the recogni-
ton of the Soviet government in
Russia. Representatives of some of
the unions, such as the Garment
Workers, are fighting bitterly. how
ever to secure that recognition. They
are of that considerable number who
would establish the tyranny of a small
class over the rest of the people.
They know full well that what they
want is not democracy or freedom
but class oligarchy, and they the

A Mistake
Boston Post, Dem.)

We think it a mistake to assume.
as some of our Democratic brethren
already appear to be doing. that the
ticket named by the Republicans at
Chicago Is an easy one to beat. SIt is
not easy to beat, as q little thought
of the elements surrounding it will
show.
Senator Harding, they say. is a
conservative, a man whose affilia-
tons have been with the Old Guard
rather than with the radical elements
in his party. Granting this to be so.
it does not mean that any large por-
ton of his party will refuse to vote
for him. There is distinct trend in
Republicanism at present to shy at
the ultra progressive doctrines OF
that wing of the party which once
followed Theodore Roosevelt into the
Progressive organization. The poor
showing of Hiram Johnson in the con-
vention. where he failed to arouse
any increasing voting strength in his
favor. is indicative of the change in
the rank and file of the party. So
conservatism. as such, will not alarm
the great body of Republicans half
SO much as radicalism would have
done.
Furthermore, the standing of SEN
ator Harding as a man, free from
any suggestion of undue financial in
fuence in his nomination, is a strong
element in his favor with the Repub-
lean voters. He has aroused no
factional bitterness There are no
personal points of attack to be made
against him. If he has not been
great, he has at least been sound
from the party standpoint
And there is no doubt whatever that
his candidacy has been helped by the
selection of Governor Coolidge as his
running-m mate. More than ever be-
fore. we think. is the nominee for the
Vice-presidency to be a large factor.
in the appeal of the whole ticket.
