Bryan's Plan.

William Jennings Bryan can always
be depended upon to start something
interesting. He is perennial in his
fertility Of suggestion. His latest
proposition is undeniably arresting,
though it may never be adopted. He
as rendered on Tuesday into effect i'm.
mediately.. without waiting for the
constitutional period of change in
March. The plan is perfectly simple.
All that is necessary is for the Presi.
dent to resign and the Vice President
to succeed him and then to name the
President-elect Secretary OF State and
resign himself to be succeeded by his
new secretary. This might in prac.
tice prove a little more difficult than
it sounds. 1t would involve four peo.
pie, all willing to contribute to the
proposed end, the President, the Vice
President. the Secretary of State and
the President-elect. Suppose the first
two were willing and the third balked.
There might then be an embarrass-
ment with another secretarial mind
failing to run along with that of the
President. OF course, the same rem,
edy could be applied as in the other
notable instance. But it may, with.
out making any personal reflection, be
believed that the greatest difficulty
Of all is in the first step of the pro.
posed sequence. And perhaps the
President-elect would prefer to wait
until March in order to assume Office
after a recuperative period. No, Mr..
Bryan's scheme, though entertaining
'is not likely, to be carried into effect.
But 1t serves a purpose. 1t puts the
Comrnoner back on the. front page.

Those Who Helped.

When a landslide occurs on election
day it does damage to the feelings Of
many people. \ 1t, of course. over
whelms and politically bruises the
losers. But it often upsets the equa-
pimity Of those who worked on the
winning side. In an election like that
of Tuesday, with ma joFities rolled up
in most of the states in Unprecedented
figures, and with no one state standing
oiit as the pivot or turning point of
the contest it is impossible to claim
any individual credit for the result
OF course, every person who voted in
New York the other day for Harding
and Coolidge will now feel a share Of
the responsibility for. the plurality of
more than a million which those can
didates received. But back in 1884
when New York went for Cleveland
by only few hundred those who voted
for him could take larger percentage
Of credit, than the Harding. Coolidge
voters in the Empire state on Tues
day. last. Just so i California four
years ago the Wilson voters could al
most Ale individual claims to turning
the national tide.
In this latest election the winners
have carried 81 states. and at the lat.
est and apparently the final reports
have received 4o4 electoral votes TO

possible to md tho pivotal point In
this contest. 1t lies so Tar down in the
body Of the returns as to almost be
undistinguishable.
The psychology of q political land
slide Is beyond analysis. There are
so many elements that enter into 1t
that they defy classification. In this
election doubtless the most diverse
factors were drawn into the same cur
rent. Nothing like it has really ever
before in the history OF the
country. Owing to the secrecy OF
the ballot no one can ever know just
which groups or classes contributed
most definitely to the result or which
governed. or exactly how
the women voted, or why. That the
women voted very heavily for Hard
ing and Coolidge is, however. obvious.
But just what Influenced them re-
mains for speculation alone.
So those who helped. those who
worked. those who spoke in the cam
paign and finally those who voted must
be content with partnership credit
for the result. 1t has been already
said that the election was won in con-
sequence of conditions and not through
management, and yet the ma nagement
is not to be denied credit for having
recognized conditions and developed
them to the utmost.
Although very few. if any, people
can regard themselves as direct con-
tributors to Tuesdays result all who
had any part in it. as speakers. as
managers or as voters, will feel a sense
of personal satisfaction.

The Burden of the Victors.

There is encouragement in Senator
Harding's election night statement
that. instead of exulting. he was dis
posed to prayerful contemplation OF
the responsibilities laid upon him by
the suffrage of his fellow citizens. He
and his party are confronted with a
task of staggering magnitude and OF
almost unprecedented difficulty.
1t is expected of them that they will
put through program OF national
reconstruction, and, to very large
extent, they must lead the way in re-
construction of the world. Skill must
be reinforced with courage; they must
be forward-looking without cutting
away from the safe mooring Of COM
mon sense.
Before the nation and the world can
be reconstructed, there must be a re-
of mems minds. 1t is
necessary that great many things
shall be learned; it is equally neces-.
sary that many things shall be for
gotten. Because a thing is naw and
aifnring is no proof that It IA safe and

And in addition to the doing of these
it must help to redeem the
hope of mankind that the nations Of
the world will associate themselves
together to reduce, IL not remove, the
Of war.
The American people are, however,
of handling this herculean
task; and the vast majority Of the
American people seem for the time be-
ing to be assembling for this purpose

The Inauguration.


Washington. denied participation in

relegated to the role Of a spectator
while the rest Of the country is ex-
pressing its choice. and the moment
the votes are cast and counted it must
take on the duties Of a host.
The National Capital has managed
the inaugurations of many Presidents,
and it is now thoroughly prepared to

ration and much responsibility. An
