temple 10 the Harding home. They
gathered on the lawn and out came
the senator, his iron gray hair giisten-
ing in the sunlight He smiled on ms
fellow editors. as with touch OF
professional pride, they formally
notified" him of his nomination. The
senator's eloquence drew occasional
applause, especially when he departed
Just a trifls from the printed copies
Of his address, which were circulated
in advance, and said ne believed IN
party rule not TO serve the sclfish
ends OF a party but for lhe benefit Of
the whole country 1t was Just
hint OF an answer TO the charge made
by Gov. Cox a week ago that The party
sponsorship which Mr.. Harding had
espoused would mean partisan gov
eminent.
The whole affair didn't last but
half hour. The editors had their pic
ture taken with senator Harding who
also shook hands with them indi-
vidually and babe them Cod speed.
@Sit Tight Il His Rule.
Now there is an old rule in politics
never say anything or do anything
that you don't have TO say or do and
new controversies TO offer no new
or startling programs at this stage
OF the campaign but simply sit tight
and profit by the Wave-almost flood
of resentment which the Republi-
cans say IS sweeping the country
against Wilson and his seven years
of administration. To use one Of SEN
ator Hardings phrases about honesty,
the Insiders viii tell you that reports
show Republican victory to be such
a certainty that all the candidate need
do is 20 offend nobody and commit
himself to nothing controversial and
he viii maintain harmony in his own
ranks and gain all the votes OF pro-
test All the votes Of punishment
which the electorate may want to ad-
minister. In other words, the Repub-
licans believe the campaign will be
one OF reputation Of things VIII
sonian rather than any especial affir-
mallon OF Harding. And the whole
attitude Is that Cox has such a han
dicap TO overcome that he viii be but
ting against a stone wall. The Ohio
editors, in private conversation, con-
firmed a good deal Of this as far as
Republican expectations are con-
cerhed- some declined 10 admit that
Ohio is close Others more conserve
tive say IL was close today but would
not be on election day.-Copyrieh
