HOoVER's INDEPENDENCE.

In his statement to the press, de-
claring himself an independent in pol
itics, Mr.. Hoover is entirely within his
rights as citizen, and he has a large
comradeship. Mr.. Hoover says that
he believes in parties-two and no
more. He proposes to wait until the
party managers" make the platforms
and then determine which he will
support But unless Mr.. Hoover par
ticipate in the making of one or the
other platform, he may find that
neither is built to his liking.
Under the party system which has
been built up in this country, and
which Mr.. Hoover and most other peo-
pie agree to be necessary, the members
of the two parties hold primaries for
the selection of delegates to county
conventions; these delegates select
delegates to state conventions. and the
state conventions select delegates to
national conventions, except that in
some states where the direct primary
system has been most extensively de-
lveloped, the national delegates are
chosen by direct vote. But in all the
states the principle OF representative
government has been adopted in party
management. If a man believe in
1 parties, is it not just as much his duty
to participate Gin party organization
and party management as it is to par

agement if he refuse to help shape the
party policies?
The only apparent excuse for Mr..
Hoover's position seems to be that
he feels that he is being pursued by
a presidential nomination and desires
to know for what he will be expected
to stand before surrendering to either
party. It would be awkward to be
Fforced to refuse a nomination after
it had been rendered. This was done
