A LONE HAND

Having duly elected Senator
Harding by a safe majority, includ-
ing all the states of the northwest
and middle west, The Sun and New
York Herald has now turned TO
electing a Republican congress
which, it now us. is about
accomplished. With the whole
thing done up So quickly. what's
the use of all the fuss and trouble
OF a campaign, anyway?
Incidentally, The Sun and New
York Herald is the first to stoop to
dirty politics, undertaking and all
the other despicable tactics. making
rash statements against the Demo-
cratic nominee one day and eating
their own words the next. If the
amalgamated Sun and Herald en-
joys this sort of politics it is well
come to it, but it is noticed that it
is playing practically a loae hand
and one that will not meet with
favor with the voters of today.

THE CIRCUIT.

Soon the statesmen. presidential,
candidates for White House fame,
in a heat that's pestilential, will
pursue the modern game; Ger the
country they'll be chasing, makin
speeches here and there. with the
Precipitation racing down their noses
and their hair. And their collars
will be wilted, and their shirtfronts
will be wet. and their neckties will
be tilted and their whiskers drip
ping sweat. Oh, 'twere better If We
knew them at a distance, l maintain
for we're thinking, when we view
them, they look neither safe nor
sane. Who a hold his admira-
ton for a man whose neck Is red,
who has dampened down the nation
with the lakes of sweat he's shed?
In the days when l was younger
men of presidential size had no
fierce or frenzied hunger for the
mob's approving cries. In the dis
lance. calm and stately. they re-
manned through all the fuss, doing
nothing. nobly, greatly. and they
made a hit with us. OF the can
didate collection who would tread
the White House way, few will
stand a close inspection on a redhot
summer day.

BOOMING THE RARTTAN

While the outing of the Raritan
Terminal and Waterways Associa-
ton today may not, in itself, bring
airy big results. 1t is bound to have
it's effect on the future OF the or
g~anization. We can all talk about
the wonders Of the harbor and the
possibilities of development, but
when the harbor itself is actually
seen the possibilities become all the
more real.
The influential men who are
making the trip through Raritan
bay and river today can accomplish
great deal for this section, but
they must have the enthusiastic
backing of the cities and towns,
and the people as well. to be bene-
fitted.
The development of the Raritan
waterways lies at the very founda-
ton of the future prosperity of this
section. With a suitable channel
and proper terminal facilities ship
ping is going to come here in in
creasing volume and once shipping
is attracted to the Raritan there
will be no holding it back, for the
advantages OF this port, being so
near the open sea and yet within
the metropolitan area and with ua-
surpassed railroad facilities, will at
31ce be realized.
We are sure that the trip being
made today to lay the foundation
for future work on the part of the
Raritan Terminal and Waterways
Association will accomplish much
good. The enthusiasm of the men
behind the movement is an indica-
ton In itself of the results to be
attained. Booming the Raritan is
about the greatest work that can
be done in this vicinity at the
present time.

Luke McLuke Saws.

Luke McLuke Says.
Another terrible thing about Pro-
hibition is that a man has to get
home before midnight on Lodge
Night. There's no place else to go.
1t doesn't matter what kind of a
complexion a girl has, jewelry will
always match it.
A girl who has been engaged three
times and has let the suckers break
the line and get away looks almost
as disguised as a woman who has
been married three times.
Too many men who have rabbit
skin salaries have wives who have
sealskin ideas.
A girl with tiny ears fixes her haiI
over them so you can't see them. But
a man with big ears gets his hail
clipped so they will stick out.
This is a speedy era. Some of the
brides have their second husbands
selected before their present hus-
hands have paid for the furniture.

CROSSED WIREs7

The Nashville Banner, supporter of
GOV. Roberts. fears that some legal
mistake will be made by the legislature
In tho ratification OF the Susan 3. An
thony amendment However, the Ban
ner takes hope from the fact that Hon.
I. X. Riddick, an able lawyer of Mem
phis, viii be In the senate to prevent
a possible mistake. What does the
Banner mean? What the purpose in
playing both sides OF the suffrage issue?
Is 1t another case OF plotting to "catch
EN- a-comin' and a-gwineT Or have
Banners wires become hopeIessly
crossed?
The only plausible explanation of the
Banners position Ia that the Roberts
supporters are trying to play this suf-
rage amendment Issue both ends and
In the middle. The Banner knows that
there Is not the least doubt of the right
OF the legislature to ratify this amend
ment. However. there are few rather
influential people In the state who do
not favor ratification. BY protesting
doubt as to the legaifty of ratification,
the Banner pleases these people and
hopes to lead them to the support OF
the governor Just a case Of playing
politics with matter that affects the

me Times, supporter also of Gov.
Roberts, fears that the governor will
violate the principle Of home rule and
local self-government by allowing the
amendment to be ratified. The Times
argues against including the subject in
the call for the extra session. This Is
a piece of rank insincerity. The gov
ernor has already violated the prin-
ciple of home rule In his public utilities
Dill and the new assessment law, but
the Times supports him nevertheless.
The Susan b. Anthony amendment
does not violate the principle Of home
rule. Both of our contemporaries know
Il. Their prime object is to nominate
Gov. Roberts. To that end they would
liddie while the political house is on
fire. Does Gov. Roberts approve this
sort OF campaigning? He has pro-
crastinatcd until suffrage has been de-
iayed In several states, and until the
party to which he belongs, and which
mas honored him, has lost much of the
moral effect that speedy ratification In
tennessee would have brought to II.
