President Harding will have with
him a largely increased majority in
both houses of congress and be able
to put through a resolution declaring
peace with all the world and our re-
fusal to stand rs policeman to guard
foreign boundary lines. A construc-
tive protective tariff is also assured.
The result in Colorado and North
Dakota state elections is equally
gratifying marking the beginning of
the end of the Non-Partisan League.
In Colorado the democrats united with
the republicans to keep them out of
power, and in North Dakota the re-
publicans helped elect a straight dem
ocratic state ticket to throw them out
of power. North Dakota elected
Harding electors and then the demo-
cratic ticket.
The sweep in Colorado carried with
it not only stale offices but Nicholson
for senator, Vailc, Timberlake and
Hardy for congressman, with ma
jority of the Legislature. Billy Adams.
the democratic war horse of the San
Luis valley, was returned to the SEN
ate by the aid of republican votes over
his Partisan League opponent
running on the republican ticket. The
state ticket is estimated to have over
fifty thousand majority and the fig
urcs mounting higher with each new
return that comes in.

HIGH FINANCE IN PROwERs
Over One Hundred Thousand Dollars
in Suits Filed TO Cancel Notes
Given Smooth Agent.

The firm of Hillyer and kinkaid
filed nine suits in the district court
of Prowers and Bent counties last
week that brought to light the manip-
ulation of the smooehest bunch of high
finance workers that ever struck this
section.

Ben-Mar and commenced to interview
our large stockmon. His company, he
said, had just been organized with a
capital stock of a million and n half
dollars and with connections in the
east that would enable them to handle
a hundred million. They needed a
director in each important stock dis
trict who was interested in the COM

were acceptable.

With each return that comes in the
sweeping flood of majorities for Re-
publican candidates swells higher and

ever had half million majority in
state before but Harding has raised
that limit to oyer a million and passed
the half million mark in a number of

The election on Tuesday resulted as
we had all along predicted in sweep
ing Republican victory in the nation
by majority so sweeping as to be
too stupendous for small country
paper to enumcratc. They simply
have not figures enough to begin to
tell the story.
New York and Pennsylvania are for
Harding by over million majority
each. Massachusetts, and Illinois by
nearly half million each. Ohio not
far behind and the other large east
ern states are dropping in line with
similar figures until the figures look
like the war expenditures of the Bak-
er war department. The polls had
hardly closed over most of the nation
until sufficient returns were in to make
the result certain and it was only n
question of how many more electoral
votes would Harding get than he
needed and how far in the lead of all
other national majorities would his ex-

but that they be allowed to utilize il
the same as other property owners

been narrowed on account of the paw
Ing that has been done in the city.
II is not question of when this
was promised to Fry & Jones, but q
matter OF business pure and simple,
and why the quibbling. They propose
to improve the property and make 1t
a place Of beauty. rather than an eye
sore, and in addition, build the city
several hundred feet of concrete side
walk at a considerable outlay to them,
but free to the city.
We are sure that the whole matter
is misunderstanding upon the part
of the city officials, and that the mat
ter will be adjusted satisfactorily to
all parties as it should be. Fry &
Jones are heavy taxpayers to the city
and 1t is very small matter, and will
not only be a benefit to Fry & Jones,
but to the public generally.

POLITICAL CONVENTIONS.

Tennessee democrats will have {
party convention this year to select
delegates to the national convention
1t will have no other function and
| will probably be pretty tame affair
So far very few democrats have mani
tested any desire to spend q thousand
dollars and at least two weeks time
for the rather doubtful honor Of being
delegate to San Francisco. The
prospects for democratic success in
November are not sufficiently promis-
ing to induce men to seek these hon.
orary places with the idea that they
will be taken care of when the presi-
dent is inaugurated by neat little
federal job. There are no signs Of
promise now on the democratic hori-
zon. Many things may happen be-
tween now and the ides of November,
1T is true, but good many things
must happen il the republican nomi-
nee is not elected.
The democrats have not had CON
yention since 1916, the convention be-
ing superseded by the mandatory
primary law. The direct primary has
not proved the panacea for political
ills that its advocates claimed for it,
IT has not decreased party strife and
discord nor has it raised at all the
average OF the governors and sena.
tors and other officials of govern
ment. The legislature of the state
has actually suffered a loss because
Of the substitution of the primary for
the convention. It was under the
convention plan, sometimes possible |

That cannot be done under the pri- !
mary system. Men who are averse
% going to the legislature under any |
are slow to agree to
become candidates in a primary
where they may be subjected to bitter
personalities and perhaps suffer de
eat at the hands of some man alto
,ether unworthy Of the honor. Again
he expense of campaign in pri-
nary is almost prohibitive to the man
n moderate circumstances. The pri.
nary closes the door of opportunity

understands as no other man in public
life does, the burdens that the farmers
bear and the difficulties under which
they must labor.
The protest which farmers from all
over the country are making against
the course that tho government has
pursued in industrial and economic
matters is due to the fact that those
who have been directing affairs at
Washington have not appreciated or
understood the conditions on the farm.
Having a school teacher as secretary
OF agriculture denied the farmers that
representation In the cabinet TO which
they are entitled and which the crea.
ton of the Office was intended to give
them. A little consideration would
convince observer that except on the
farms, in mining, manufacturing,
transportation, etc, there has been a
slowing up of effort all over the coun-
try since the armistice. Production
in manufacturing and mining has
slackened. The result has been a
substantial increase in all manufacture
ed products which the farmer must
buy, while his products have not in
creased in price since the armistice,
due to the closing in part OF the Eu. |
ropean markets and to the fact that
he has not lessened his efforts. Car
ried on indefinitely such policy must

MOWERS PROSPECTS.

That the politicians of neither politi
cal party want Hoover for president is
evident. They have not been slow tc
tell the people as much. The average
politician Is more interested in DO
litical power that comes through the
=. distribution OF patronage, than he is
IN anything else. He wants to know
whether or not his nominee for presi.
s dent will if elected, reward the faith.
a ful Mr.. Hoover Is not q politician
and has no real political alignments.
* he were elected president he would
probably appoint to office those whom
he believed best fitted for the Jobs re.
!, CARELESS of how they had voted in the
past. AS O matter OF course it would
3'be 9 very difficult matter for any one
to define the difference between a
democrat and republican at this
stinie.
What this country needs as presi.
dent more than anything else is a
capable business man, thoroughly de.
voted to the ideals of America, a gen.
uine. patriot who is actuated by no mo-
tive except that of public service. 1t
is more important that the next pres. !
ident should have those qualifications
than that he should call himself a |
democrat or republican. 1t is doubt |
fui, however, If man OF this descrip-
ZION could be nominated or elected.
The average voter is a partisan. He
likes to vote for the party label.
No man in the nation appreciates
better the situation in which the farm
or is placed under existing conditions
than Mr.. Hoover. He ought to have
the solid support of the agricultural
classes Not that they expect or
should ask any special favors of gov.
eminent. but because he will see that
hey arc given fun Justice. Hoover
