Special Rule In Doubt
'TAE BLACKGUaRDS
or THE PRESS"

Losing the poise and urbanity,
which has been one Of his chief as
sets since his entered the White
House. President Harding grows We
bement in denouncing the black
guards Of the press" for their "sensa-
tiorai' methods in exploiting at
taCks upon public officials.
II is rot surprising that the ex-
posures upon Harry Daugherty have
gotten under the skin of the placid
man from Marion, but the press,
against which Mr.. Harding inveighs,
is oaiy publishing the charges made
upon the floor of the United States
Senate against Mr.. Daugherty and
charges which the Attorney General
has never pretended 10 meet with
effective denial.
, In the Philadelphia Public Ledg.
or Republican newspaper. ap-
pears the following news story in
reference to Mr.. Harding's state
met;
As an illustration OF the un-
recorded work OF unknown,

prominence given TO attacks ON

but the president and the news
paper hrs eyiaently forgotten that
such a man as Woodrow Wilson
ever lived. ,.s
They have forgotten that while he
was engaged in the most important
and onerous national service ever
undertaken by an American, the Re
publican party in this country speut
It's time ia the very sniping process
against which Mr. Harding is now
so outraged
They criticised him for .he size
and expo1te of his clerical force on
the Peace Comm ission; they attack
ed his personal expenditures, and
the late Senator Penrose, the olig-
arch Of s,and-pat Republicanism in
the SeiNte. even stopped so low as
to call In question a few gifts OF
paltry value which generous friends
bestowed upon Mrs. Wilson abroad.
When IL comes to national SER
vice" remaining untold and unap-
preciated" while mo alleged mis-.
demeanor besmirohing the name OF
a high public official is too unim-
portant 10 claim notice." the press
which Mr.. Harding is now pleased
to denounce, never approached in
it's niggardly or mendacious spirit
the attitude of the Senate of the
United States toward Woodrow Will
son while he was abroad.
But that is not all. When he re-
turned home facing hostile Sem
ate, forced to go to the people for
any hope Of success, and was strick-
en- down in his labors. the relentless
hand of malice beat upon his sick
chamber. and partisan envy in
vented the miserble SANDER that he
was crazy.
How trivial and inconsequential
are the offenses of these black
guards of the press" as President
Harding characterizes them, in
printing an authentic and undenied
account of the charges against Harry
Daugherty, an ablebodied, strong
American. compared TO the misera-
Bile ISLANDERS which a partisan Sen
ate circulated against stricken
President and his gentle wife. I
Narrow and insensate partisan
partisansh hip has written many black
pages upon the political history of
the United States. but none blacker
than the treatment accorded TO
Woodrow Wilson as he lay at
deaths door in a White House
chamber.
No resolution ever expressed the
hope Of the recovery of the Presi-
dent OF the United States; no
syllable Of sympathy for him was
ever uttered; whilst the poison
squad, headed by Senator Moses. of
New Hampshire. was industriously
circulating the rumor that the Pres
iGent had lost his mind.
That is the record of the manner
in which a Republican Senate treat
ed Woodrow Wilson when he was
unable to meet his defamers.
Surely when Mr.. Harding rebukes
the press for merely printing legiti-
mate news in regard to a Cabinet
member who is NJ least strong OF
