The Indiana Primary Election

DOLITICAL PHILOSOPHERS, soothsayers, fortune
tellerr and dream specialists are completely occu-
pied explaining the terrific walloping Albert Bever-
idge administered to Harry New in the Republican
senatorial premaries in Indiana. It was totally unex-
pected and was a great shock to the friends of Senator
New. Political wiseacres have solved the problem
by every rule and theory found in the curriculum of
each and every fractional political school in the land,
but the only thing they prove to n certainty by their
mathematics is the fact that Mr.. Beveridge received
a larger number of votes than Mr.. New and was there
fore nominated
By stretch of an elastic imagination there are those
who see dissatisfaction with the present administra-
ton and repudiation of President Harding because
Senator New has been a consistent supporter OF Dotn.
So has Mr. Beveridge insofar as a distinguished pr
yate citizen has been able so to do. 1t is very true
that the two gentlemen graduated from different
schools in the Republican university and have had
widely different training. The theory renINns te
same with both, but practical application has not been
m accord.
OF course. it an hanks back to 1912, when The
Republican party blew up by the contact OF Roosevelt
dynamite with the Old Guard steam roller. There are
here and there a few who failed to fuse in the melting
not that turned out the purified party of 1920, but
Mr.. Beveridge was not one of them. He was one 70
file the wire edge off his extreme progressiveism to
meet half way the old standpatter who had moved
the accelerator up a notch or two to more nearly con-
form to the things the Republican party was origin
ally created to perform and always had performed,
but, which, owing to long lease of power, had grown
autocratic in party management and therefore dis
pleasing to those who loved the party and desired to
serve it and refused to eat oats out of the hands OF
those who temporarily directed its destinies- The
spirit of revolt was purely Republican. There is
no criticism of it now, whatever may have been felt
Mt the time of the w~recking.
For that matter. the day was, m Ohio, when War
rem Harding, himself, was an insurgeut against she
Sherman-McKinley-Hanna organization and allied with
the Foraker faction of the Republican party. With
the passing of time and fractional leaders the Repub-
lican party drifted back to its own and Harding
became a trusted leader and many were the warriors
in the former faction Of Hanna that marched and
fought under the Harding banner. In the old day
Harding was an insurgent, a progressive Today the
extremists call him a conservative. He is, for that
matter, as distinguished from a radical.
There can be nothing in the Beveridge victory m
Indiana to suggest dissatisfaction with the Harding
administration.
If anything is working among che Hoosiers that
would remotely suggest anything of the sort it is the
local fear that the party is drifting back to the 1912
situation and that has been happily obviated by the

nation never before needed a mrchant marine as it

part of competition has been transferred from wE

to the ratio and it loses its defense IL it loses its

Inconsistency in permitting the service of liquor, but
the American government proposes to subsidize and
not to operate the ships. They win be privately
operated under the American flaz and available for
the American navy If needed. It is not a stretch of
national conscience to Kermit an American ship when
outside of American waters to provide the service
found on the ships of other nations.

Mr.. Monder's objection to these

The facts in reg1rd to the matter in

While Senator Kendrick did not in

as his friends assured the Stockgrow-

bills, while Senator Hendricks amend

Mr.. Mondell has always been opposed
to section 1b-A since the time when
tho senate forced these provisions on
the house conferees. but Mr.. Mondell
would not want anyone to ~understand
that he hoped thaf freight reductions

4 Rough Spot

ON THE YELLOWSTONE Trail, IN the east end
" of the city extending from the end of the paving
to the corporation line, is about the toughest, meanest
and most profanity-producing stretch of street in all
Casper.
It is the introduction to Casper to thetraveler from
the east and it is the farewell to the traveller Journey
ing to the east In either event there is a bad i'm
preston. Just why this short stretch of street over
which passes a tremendous traffic, is neglected and
permitted to remain IN such condition no one seems
TO know.
So far as anyone recalls there has been no work
done at this particular spot in the past year, although
the city has all sorts of machinery to smooth up its
unpaved streets.
There are doubtless other places within the city
that need attention as badly as the spot mentioned.
and among some of them can be enumerated streets
in the newer additions in the east and southeast
sections, but why this stretch of rough gumbo at
the end of the paving has not, at least. been smoothed
UP so that it can be travelled without so great discom-
fort remains for the city street departmental explain
to the public.

Prohibition and Human Nature

TT is agreed that the eighteenth
l. amendment to the constitution viii never be
repealed. At this time no one can conceive OF n
congress that will deliberately bring back to the
American people a curse OF which they are SO well
rid. The difficulties in the way of enforcement OF
the laws respecting prohibition are many and the
federal department IN charge may well be termed the
department. of patience and long SUFFERING Yet IN
the end he It few years or mary, that department
VIII hive fully accomplished the purposes of its ere
ation and can be abolished or its remaining work
turned over 10 some other bureau:
As cases come before them courts are constantly
adding rulings that draw the lines tighter and in some
cases interfere with what is termed business success
and Inconvenience citizens who do not at -Gresent
possess that high conception of obedience to lw that
they may later come to have.
A writer in the Chicago Tribune takes up the
decision of Judge Hutchinson of the Texas federal
court as applied to American shipping and the sale
of liquor IN which these views are expressed:
Judge Hutchinson of the federal district court in
Texas has ruled that it is unlawful for American ships
TO carry and supply liquor even outside the three-mile
limit The ship itself being part Of the national ter
ritury the prohibition enforcement law applies and
passengers cannot be served with liquor. The federal
prohibition officers had seized liquor on the shipping
board vessel Mount Evans and the legality of the
seizure was tested in court.
"rhis decision may stand in the higher courts and
it viii affect the American merchant marine unless
congress can and will exempt American shipping, when
outside of American waters, from American sump-
tEary law.
"The great fast beats which are Invaluable as aux
ii;aries to a navy are made possible by people of
means-unless they are supported by heavy subsidies
It is the demand of people of wealth for speed and
comfort in travel which produces the great liners and
sustains them IN operation.
'Nost people of wealth will not submit to Ameri-
can prohibitiyn laws when they leave the Unhed
States. Not many of them viii travel on American
boats If on them prohibition spreads all over the
seas. Many Americans who are not plutocrats will
not travel on a prohibition boat when they can take
pnssange on a fine ship under another flag. No
foreigner would take a dry American ship.
