THE REPUBLICAN COMMITTED
indianapolis Eews.)

The republican national committee yesterday
elected John T. Adams OF Iowa. chairman 10 succeed
candidate for the place. and ne then recognized
as representative both of the reactionary element
and OF the William II. Thompson-La Toilette anti
crowd. 1t curious combination, and yet
did exist In dispatch Of Feb. 8. 1913, describ
ing the contest for the craftsmanship between Hays
and Adams, this:
But out Of the meeting of the republican
national committee will come a solution of the
question of whether the republican party shall
be managed by the old reactionary standrat
crowd that drove the party the rocks OF
disaster in 1912 whether It shall be
aged by the progressive element that has
rejuvenated the party and made it
factor in the political life of the nation"
The committee then took the progressive path.
Yesterday 1t chose chairman who was
three years ago the candidate of the old guard
crowd. 1t argued 1918 that 1.-THE fact that
Thompson and LaFoette favor Adams should OF
itself be enough TO prevent his election There are
those who believe that he has dsproved the charge
that he was pro- German. but the New York Tribune
does not take that view. on the contrary has
Gently condemned him untitled by his pro-Ger-
man declarations for the craftsmanship of the
tonal committee Whether the country is disposed
to forget is yet to be seen. The probabilities are
that he was not actually pro-German but that ne
had exaggerated opinion OF the German vote at
the time In question.
The committee did well to reduce the southern
representation in republican conventions. For years
there talk of such action, and the need for
generally recognized. But never till now
has the committee dared 10 face the issue As the
OF yesterdays action. the southern represen-
tation will be cut down by % votes and the south
Will have only 167 delegates out of total OF 1887.
In thoee states, such as Tennessee, Alabama, Nir-
ginia North Carolina and Texas. where there seems
to be a real republican party there vii be change
in representation, except that some of them will
have a few more delegates. But carpet-bag repub-
licansm is not recognized. South Carolina, for in
stance which only 2.246 for Harding will
have four instead Of eleven delegates No congress
slonai district north south shall have delegate
unless casts $500 votes and puts in the field n
regular republican ticket. This action is wise from
every point of view. 1t will do something toward
ending the disgrace and scandal Of carpetbaggism,
and future republican conventions Of much
ruption Those conventions will hereafter be repre-
sentative they were before. Candidates will
henceforth be nominated by states which there is
at least some chanc OF carrying. There will be much
less interest in the old pastme of rounding up
southern delegates.

More Truth
Than Poetry
BY JAMES ]. MONTAGUE
CASUS BEIiLI.

Rioting against a % per cent al
cohol bill has lately taken place in a
number Of towns in Holland.
Throughout the recent trouble
The Dutch their tempers curbed-
Mid all the roar and shock Of war
Serene and undisturbed.
While cannon-shot and shrapnel
Sailed right above their heads
With minds at ease they churned
their cheese
And titled their tulip beds.
The Germans tried TO blu1 them.
The allies threatened war.
But quite content their ways they
went
As calmly as before.
Phlegmatic and unwOrried.
Though discord filed the air,
They said as how this gorgeous row
Was none Of their affair.
But when their legislature
cor queen. or parliament)
Reduced their brew abruptly 10
Just p per cent.
Up rose the stolid Dutchmen
United, one and all.
And in a stage OF furious rage
They howled. More alcohol"
Though ordinary troubles
VIII leave a Dutchman cold.
Though day by day he goes his wav
With feelings we'll controlled.
Don't think he has no temper.
He'll fool you II YOU do.
He's there with bells when someone
yells.
Come, Battle for your brew"

INDICATES FORMER POLL.
Overwhelming Veto Like That Of Year
Before From Both Sides Of
Political Fence.

Washington.-Inner circles of 10Th
political parties here are greatly in
terested IN the results of a national
poll on the question of government
operation among over 5000 newspa-
per editors throughout the country.
With SO per cent of these editors, re-
CARELESS of political faith, giving II as
their impartial opinion that the public
is more than ever opposed to the gov
eminent going into business In com
petition with its citizens, observers
here see little chance that either po-
litical party viii find it a profitable
campaign issue.
In the opinion Of party leaders this
sort of a canvass among newspaper
editors is the best possible index of
public opinion. They recall a similar
connection with the proposition that
the government take owe the rail-
roads permanently. Replies at that
time from approximately the same
number of editors showed SO per cent
against the principle of government
operation. They recall also that with
In ten days from publication of the
result of the former questionable the
sentiment for return of the railroads
to their owners had definitely crys-
tafiized.
Comparison Of present results in de.
tail with those Of a year ago con-
vinces the political student not only
that these editors have been accurate
in their judgment, but that party con-
slderations played no part in form
ing 1t. From Democratic and sup
posedly radical Texas, for example,
the present q~uestionnaire brought re-
plies from editors Of 244 papers, only
three of which are Republican. Yet
the percentage against government
ojeration was 90, which, is exactly the
same as that given by 200 editors
from Republican Michigan, among
whom were representatives of only
three Democratic papers. Other
states that pair percentages signif-
cantly are Massachusetts and Nevada,
with 100; Connecticut and South Caro-
lima. with OF; Maine and West vir-
ginia. with 90; Kentucky and New
York, with OIL; Missouri and Pennsyl-
vania. with 80: Ohio and Oklahoma
with 81.
The result of the present poll as to
government operation in each state

HALF YOUR LIVING
WITHOUT MONEY COST
Cotton Production Costs Can Be Cut
In Half Joy Food And Grain
Making And Saving

Atlanta, Georgia.-(Special.)-"High
prices for cotton, such as we had q
year ago cannot reasonably be expect
ed for a long time to come. European
countries that normally use half our
crop are 50 thoroughly d~isorganized
and paralyzed in a business way that
they will moi be able to take the
usual quantities and pay high prices
for many years to come" said H.. g.
Hastings. President of the great
Southeastern Fair.
This situation which WI cannot
control, calls for lower costs of max.
ing cotton as well as reduction in cot
ton acreage. The quickest, safest
and most effective way Il reduce cot
ton making cost is to produce on ones
W. acres every pound of food, grain
and forage needed for family, tenants
d laborers and live stock.
The situation requires chickens,
hogs, milk cows and acres of corn,
oats, wheat, forage and miscellane-
GUS crops from which to feed them.
Last, but not least, in Importance, Is
the home vegetable garden which is
the quickest and cheapest source of
food In the world.
Most folks here in the South don't
take the home garden seriously and
thereby make a great mistake. There
are too many Of the lick and a prom
ise' sort of gardens and mighty few
of the real sure enough kind.
We have been told repeatedly by
those who plan and prepare for a real
garden, plant it, tend it and keep 1t
r~eplanted through the season, that 1t
furnishes half the family living at no
money cost except the small amount
spent for the seeds needed.
"The garden is, or rather should be,
the earliest planted. 1t brings foo
the quickest. 1t starts cutting store
bills for food the first week anything
Is ready to use. A little later, half
or more needed for the table comes
out of the garden.
IF rightly tended and ~replanted it
supplies food all summer and fall, the
surplus above daily needs goes into
cans or is dried for winter use. Yes,
the right kind of garden is a life
saver, and we all need a ~life-saver OF
this kind in 1921"

A great deal has been written and
said about the coming of the propos
ed colony of Mennonitcs from u Of
Canada TO settle in Greene and Jones
counties in Missippi and Washington
County, Ala, on cutoyer pine lands.
Tue Herald is satisfied that much OF
the stuff has been on INSTRUMENTATION.
We acknowledge ourselves that we
have no first hand knowledge of this
people, but we are convinced from
the reports of their progress since
they first migrated to Canada a poor
people, and now they have millions
of wealth amasstd by their system OF
communal living and working, that
they are a.thrifty people. We hope
il they come to our county they will
prove an agreeable people despite
their peculiar customs and views and
that their habits Of persistent APP,
plication to produce and accumulate,
will convert many of those wild acres
with which these counties abound,
into producing ones for m~anklnd's
needs. They are coming without
any invitation or arrangement on
the part of this paper and we are
merely speaking our. mind as the
matter presents itself at this phase
Of the game subject of course to be-
come more familiar with it by devel-
oping circumstances.

This wise advice is given by the
Carthaeenian published at Carthage,
and If followed generally in Missis-
sippi at the present time will do lots
towards relieving the situation OF
money disappearance. Put the mon
ey to work that is in sight and hand
and it will work in many ways and
for many people in the same locality
and tend to ease all and hurt none.
A little loosening up is good tonic
Tor tight times alright.
."Co operation with a big &c"
must be the rule this year. Mon
ey is scarce and times are tight
so it is said, but the right kind
of cooperation on the part of all
will relieve the situation. The
merchant must pay the farmer.
the farmer pay the doctor. the
doctor pay the lawyer, and all
pay the newspaper man, who
will keep the money circulating.
One bale of cotton must paw a
multitude of debts
