Warren &. Harding, candidate for
President and Calvin Coolidge, for
Vice President have both been official
Iy notified of their nomination. They
have both used old diplomatic Ian
guage to conceal their thoughts and
middle the minds of the readers.
Where they stand on any question is
difficult to clearly discern, but they
can learn who is the party whether it
be the progressive Senator Johnson or
the reactionary Senator Bots Penrese
and Henry C. Lodge.

One of Americas greatest i~nstitu-
lions is the Public Schools. The men
who made them by neighborly cooper
alton and legislation get what they
want. The great mass of the inhabi-
tants who got their education in them
and the great and good men who have
arisen from them and made the great
est nation of free thinking people
competent to think for themselves is
the greatest vindication for their con-
tinued existence.

Germany is slowly submitting to the
terms of the Peace Treaty to rid the
people of their barbarous war spirit.
On Wednesday the new army bill was
introduced in the reichstag, contain
ing a clause declaring universal mill
tary service abolished and all provi-
sions to the contrary rescinded. 1t is
to the United States Senate's everlast-
ing disgrace that the members did not
ratify the Peace Treaty with a whoop
and give Germany to understand that
what we meant in war we meant in
peace.

The international yacht race off
New York harbor the past two weeks
has made pleasing mental recreation
for those with sporting minds. AS it
took five races to decide the contest
and as the American boat, Resolute,
won over the Shamrock on Tuesday
the American minds are exceedingly
happy altho good sports would have
gladly let Sir Thomas Upton have it
if won as the cup has been in America
sixty-nine years.
Sir Thomas Upton is a rich tea
merchant in London. Being a bache-
lor with no family cares, international
boat-racing has been his hobby. He

In reading your political literature
today spoken by those who appeal to
George Washington's farewell address
keep in mind that it was written un-
der the worlds condition in 1876.
Europe did have a set of primary
interests of monarchs, kings and
feudal lords in 1896 which have been
destroyed in the World War of 1914
IS. The principles of American De-
moeracy have supplanted the primary
principles in Washington's time in
Europe. The Peace Treaty and the
League of Nations Covenant were
made to secure American principles in
Europe.

The Americas Cup

Once more the silver trophy stays
In Uncle Sans good care;
The contest in the wind, on waves
Was Tough for on the square.
Once more we keep the old-time prize,
Won many years ago;
IT'S wondrous, sure, how fast time
flies,
Just like our boats, you know.
Once more Sir Thomas is good sport
Although he sailed in vain;
AS sturdy loser he'll retort,
"Well I'll be back again."

tions from this years revenue will be
available New departments created
ly the last Legislature are the State
Purchasing Agency and the State EN-
ployment Bureau.
Among the laws effective is that

drivers from IS to 16 years.
Increasing the marriage license fee
as we'll as the fee for traders Ii

ton law.
