Senator Warren C. Harding. OF

In the presence of thousands of his

cepted the Presidential nomination
rendered him by the Chicago nation
al Republican convention.
But that is about all he has ac-
cepted. He does not accept the
challenge Of the nation to define his
position on any paramount propo-
sltlon now before the people of the
United States. He does not accept
the leadership of the party unless
We have mistaken the tenor of his
speech. He does not accept the re-
sponsibility for shaping the destiny
OF the country toward permanent
peace. On matters pertaining to
which patriotic Americans are of
one mind he gives half-hearted in
dorsement. Evasive in character
and wholly lacking in constructive
elements, the acceptance speech
must be set down as an unsuccess-
full effort to dodge. We hope the
speech will be widely read in Amer
lea. In no better way can the peo-
pie of the nation be afforded an op-
portunity to study the candidate
and observe more clearly how COM
pletely Senator Harding is out Of
harmony with progressive thought
in this country.
Perhaps no one sentence or
phrase more clearly illustrates the
general tenor of this address than
the particular feature pertaining to
the military section of the national
structure.
the best in the world This, Of
inquire in all sincerity just what
Senator Harding meant to say when
he produced this thought. The
phrase, of course. is typical of the
entire speech. Dealing in general
tiles, the nominee finds himself at
the very outset of his address be-
tween two fires. He undertakes. but
in thoroughly unsuccessful man
ner, to meet the demands of the
conflicting elements in his party -
the one headed by former President
William Howard Taft, who is a
staunch advocate of a league of
nations; the other .championed by
Senator Hiram Johnson and Senator
William E. Borah. who are unalter-
ably opposed to the treaty and the
league.

by buying things on bargain day"
The store is jammed from top to

And so the folks are kicked about
and soon get sore and tired out;
they finish up a day serene with
aching frame and weary bean.

through and save dollar-maybe

me ten dollars worth of misery.
