ORDINARY POLITICAL
METHODS

The ordinary politician can think
of only two ways 10 get himself in
to n political job at the hands of
the people.
First he must throw out some
thing TO Indicate that as between
capital and labor he has no use
for the former.
Next he must Indicate in some
way that he is against corporations
and especially those rendering
public service.
We have in mind an editor who
periodically seeks to break into
political life on these lines of dem
ogogcry.
For ten months in the year he
keeps busy trying to make money
and enter the oppressive capitalis-
tic class.
But for two months before the
primaries he soft pedals and gets
off sentiments To make you think he
is socialist.
