HARDING AND COOLIDGE

The Republican National Convention
while in convention assembled in Chi
cago, the past week, placed in nomi-
nation as their standard bearers. Sena-
tor Warren G. Harding of Ohio and
Governor Calvin Coolidge of Massa-
chusetts. Let us hope they are both
good men for the places to which thew
have been nominated. The fact that
Warren G. Harding has been a prin-
ter and publisher makes us feel as if
he was one of the craft and must have
elements of character that fit him for
the Presidency. If all the trials and
tribulations that oefall man during
his early training as printer and
publisher, does notsfit him for the Pres
ldency we don't know what would.
We shall have faith in Mr.. Harding
because he is fellow craftsman and
that ne will prove to be every thing
that his Party expects of him. We
place his name with that of his col
league at the head of our editorial col
umn to remain there until November
next.
