The Republican National Chairman.
Just word about Mr.. Will H.
Hays, though it would take volume
to say all that might fittingly be said
about him. There are those who have
wondered how it was that he became a
party committeeman before he was
fairly out of his teens, and how it is
that ever since he has been a member
and generally chairman of some I'M
portant committee. The last six
months have explained it all. 1t has
been because square peg does now
and then get into a square hole.
That was what happened when Mr..
Hays was made chairman of the re-
publican national committee. The
man and the job were perfect fit. 1t
would be difficult to exaggerate the
value of the service which he has rem
dered in that place to his party and,
through it, to the whole country. He
has harmonized, unified, smoothed out,
inspired, vivified, pointed and led the
way to victory; without unfailing tact,
discretion, patience, good humor, sound
common sense, and, above all, trans
parent sincerity and integrity which
have commanded the unhesitating con-
fdence of the people. He was shown
a right conception of the functions OF
his office in seeking not to dictate the
nomination of candidate, but to Sc
cure the election of the candidate NOM
mated. He has been the servant of
the party, not it's boss; and he has his
reward in such universal and grateful
esteem as few national chairmen of
either party have ever enjoyed. 1t
has been his lot to manage party
affairs in two and half years Of the
most difficult time in it's history, and
he has done so with a success never
surpassed.
Nor did his work end with the adj
journment Of the convention. The
most arduous part Of it was only then
begun. But his achievements down to
that point were an ample earnest Of
what was to follow. His scheme for
raising abundant funds without so
much as suspicion Of illicit employ
ment of wealth is simply a stroke of
political genius, averting in advance
all possible reproach or question such
as-quite unjustly-played the mis-
chief with some leading candidates in
the late primary campaign. When the
browning victory over wisconsin is
won in November this quiet, modest,
but formidably earnest young man
from Indiana will be of all men most
entitled to say, GAIL of it I saw, and
a great part Of it I was;" but he will
also be the last man in the world to
say such thing; wherefore we gladly
say it for him in confident prediction.

What is really gnawing at the heart

WHAT'S really gnawing at the heart
strings of Bill Hearst is the knowledge
that neither the republican or demo-
cratic party wants him or his band Of
soreheads, and consequently ignore
them. The springing Of new political
parties by Hearst is done in a spirit
Of pure revengefulness and will avail
him nothing. Figuratively speaking,
his so-called "third party" will prove
no more substantial than soap bub-
BILE. Had he adhered to either the
republican or democratic party he
would in all probability have ere this
been rewarded with some important
office instead Of being cast into the
slough of political outlawry.

Department of justice sleuths, while
nosing around things in general, which
constitutes their daily occupation,
claim to have discovered a combine
among linseed oil manufacturers which
is responsible for the high price of
the oil. These sleuths are of opinion
that they have made wonderful dis
covery, but if they nose around on a
more extensive scale they are very
apt to discover that a combine exists
among the producers of almost every
thing we use, even unto needles, pins
and tacks.

Here is what Congressman Mondell
said in referring to President Wilson's
pocket veto of the resolution to repeal
the war laws: History furnishes no
parallel for this procedure and records
no case where an executive acting I'M
der constitution has so defiantly, so
tenaciously, chung to power. Mon
.archs have lost their thrones-and
their heads-for less definite, conspic-
uous and effective thwarting of the
public will as expressed by the peo-
pies representatives" Every word of
this is true.

Hank Ford, the flivver king, is con-

proposed third party and running as
a presidential candidate. One would
incline to the belief that the noted
tinsmith was sufficiently familiar with
things political to know that he could
not reach the white house in thous-
and years through the so-called third
party channel. And it is a safe bet
that he will never land the presidency
through any other.

Ring Lardner suggested the other
day at San Francisco that the demo-

the fact that the democratic party
