| However, with danger of friction upon
the prohibition issue eliminated it may be
reasonably safe to say, even in the face OF
arguments advanced by those who have kept
close tab upon the situation, that it will not
be a dark horse.
The determination Of many democrats to
nominate McAdoo, coupled with his evidently
honest determination not to accept the honor,
complicates matters materially and may lead
10 favorite sons delegations. throwing the de-
cisive votes to some candidate who is at this
point more or less obscure
With McAdoo in the running there can be
no question that he would be a prime favorite
with the delegates, without sufficient strength
to nominate on the first ballot and with Cox,
of Ohio running close second as the logical
man.
But with McAdoo determined not to be-
come the "choice of the people," and with that
determination so deeply seated that he might
refuse the nomination were it given him against
his will, Clark, of Missouri, or Owen, of Okla
homa, might ride in upon the reactionary wave,
defeating Cox with the rest of the field.
Bryan, as we have hitherto pointed out will
be dominating figure at the convention, one
dangerous to the ultimate success of democ'
racys cause.
There is, truth compes us to admit, some
possibility of his receiving the nomination.
Such thing would not be good politics
Such thing could not even be called poor
politics. 1t would be calamity which would
wreck the hopes now brighter than ever be-
fore-the hope for democratic success follow
ing the adoption by the party of fearless,
honest honorable, American platform.
With all possibility of the San Francisco

to the people of this country the fearless and
honorable and non-issue-dodging platform
which honesty and good politics demands, it
will take more than the stand-patters' support

"WHERE WAS RODERICK THEN?"

There is hardly an antiGore man in
Oklahoma who will not concede that Gore
is one of the most eloquent men in the
country. AS a campaigner he has few
equals in any state.
But there is not loyal Oklahoman
who did not regret during the days of war
that Gore was not employing his eloquence
in developing the war spirit of the nation.
There is not war speaker in Okla
homa who did not regret that Gore failed
to participate as a speaker in every war
drive.
There is not man in Oklahoma today
who managed a Liberty Bond campaign
that does not regret the absence of Gore
from the platform when those campaigns
were under way.
There is not man who managed
Red Cross drive that does not regret Cores
silence when money and members were
being sought for the Red Cross.
We doubt if there is single soul in
oklahoma who can recall single speech
that Gore made during the war for the
Liberty Loans. the Red Cross, the Saliva
ton Army or for the army and navy.
Gore is very eloquent and very loqua-
cious today. But during the days of peril
he maintained the silence of the damned

WHO?-WHAT?

Monday, June 2S, the democratic national
convention will formally open at the metropolis
of the western world and the delegates assem-
bled, famed by the gentle breezes of the
slumbering Pacific will adopt-what platform

For the greater part of week, now, the
advance guard has been milling around the hotel
lobbes of San Francisco, seemingly more intent
upon working out platform than in furthering
the campaign of any aspirant for the honor of
the democratic nomination.
The "Old Guard" is on hand. 1t came early
and has been mixing in with the younger ele-

SLAVERY TO PARTY

(FrOm the New IOrk NOriuJ
| Much that Mr.. Hoover has to say
| in favor of government by party, one
powerful organization acting as
check upon another, will be accepted
by most Americans. In that case how
ever, parties must stand for some
thing, and so must men.
For example, in making his formal
accession to the republican candidates
and platform, the best that Mr.. Hoov-
er can say Isl Il cannot conceive tha,
Senator Harding will for one moment
submit the administrative side of the
government to the determination of
any group or coterie," and nothing
prevents the compromise planks on
labor, the league, etc, from being
given n forward-looking interpreta-
tion."
This is In the face Of the notorious
fact that during all his public life
Senator Harding has taken his opin'
ions and policies from IA group or co.
terie and was made the nominee by
group or coterie, and, Furthermore,
in defiance of truth, evident to
every person who can read that the
platform on most vital issues is cow
ardly and evasive. Such things do not
come about by accident. They are
entered upon without scruple and with
intent to deceive.
We know that Senators johnson
and Borah, who want to kill the
league of nations and make sepa-
rate peace with Germany, profess to
believe that the platform means pre-
cisely such program. That was the
price paid them for refusing TO bolt.
On the other hand, we are informed
by ogden L. Mills that the league
plank as drawn by Elihu Root was
adopted without change, and Mr.,
Root, now at The Hague in an in.
terview cabled on Saturday, interpret
ing his own platform, which appears
so different to Senators johnson and
Borah, predicted that "the league Of
nations covenant would be adopted
with reservations by the republicans
in the next administration"
When men differing so radically

Landis Will Keep
 Baseball Free Of Crooks

New York, Nov. 27.-Baseball add ed a picturesque character to it's per sonnel when Judge Kenesaw Noun tain Landis was chosen and accepted the post as head of it's new govern ing body.
 Judge Landis is a fearless fighting man. He is full of vim and energy, famed for his keen wit, his fair able personality. He should make baseball more popular than it has ever been before, and to say that his acceptance was met with genuine ap- proval by the fans of the country would be putting it very mildly.
 In retaining his seat on the Fed eral bench, Judge Landis imparts much dignity to the game. As a fed
 eral judge he retains prestige that would not be appreciated as keenly were he an eX-judge.
 Landis may be depended upon to go after the crooks in baseball with every weapon at his command He is in a position to clean up the game and will be given the united assist eat q of the sixteen major league own eSs and the presidents of the two big | '.=,5aes
 That he will have things pretty n Gch his own way goes without say , ig The owners and the lea gue pres idents are quite ready to admit that i they made a mess of baseball under 1 the old plan and they will accept l the wise counsel of the eminent MT ! LandiS in all things.

 One of the live wires at the recent meeting of the National Association at Kansas City was George H. Maines, president of the Mich1gan-OntarIo League, a Class B circuit that has a reputation as one of the best minor leagues in the country.
 Maines is one of the youngest men ever elected to a league presidency, and his ability is attested to by the fact that he was made a member of the minor league committee that is to meet with the major league com mittees to revamp the government of the game.
 Judge Landis' acceptance of the post which makes him the supreme court of baseball should not be con strued as a victory for either of the erstwhi1e major league factions. Ii is, in my opinion, a victory for organ ized baseball and the patrons of the game" said MaineS.
