PINCHoTs VICTORY.

PENNSYLVANIA has followed the lead Of Indiana.
1t has nominated for high office under its direct
primary law, progressive, a former Bull Moose"
Like Indiana ring" candidate was led to his
own slaughter by a system Of government which
ignored the people.
Senator New had every tavorIng circumstance
in the Indiana He enjoyed the friendship and
favor of President Harding, He was in control of
the well-oiled machine that viii Hays had geared
up He was in office and had dictated political
patronage
Against him was Indiana's hoy orator." grown
up into the dignifed author of the life Of John
Marshall. He had machine. He had only his
voice and his ideals of government Of by and for
the people. He canvassed every county personally
and spoke in hundreds Of halls.
The common people OF Indiana deliberated and
then turned to Beverage, who promised them relief
from political oppression.
Pennsylvania has long been boss-ridden. Its
political chiettsins have been absolutely in their
power. They have done they pleased to whom
they pleased. The people afraid Of Penrose
and Knox and all their henchmen.
But death removed Pcnrose and Knox from the
political arena. New leadership was slow in devel.
oping. Tinchot scnsed the fact and aroused the
people to belief that they could capture the reins
of their own government They doubted it little
but they were willing to give it a test
Pinchot opposed Alter, who backed by the
state organization. The campaign was parallel
to that Of Indiana. Pinchot appealed TO the people
in small groups. Alter negotiated with the politi-
cians-in wholesale lots When the ballots were
counted. tho candidate who of the people won
There should be much encouragement TO the
people of New Mexico in the triumph OF progressive
policies in the boss-ridden states of Indiana and
Pennsylvania. 1t indicates new interest in good
government. 1t forecasts the establishment of new
standards Of measurement OF candidates.
But the attention Of the people should be d.
rected to the fact that without the direct primary.
Indiana and Pennsylvania would have been power
less to relief from political oppression. The
enactment OF primary law here is necessary be-
fore absolute political freedom will be possible.

EPITHETS AND AMENITIES.

journalism in the romantic, pioneer days. OF the
far West when every editor supposed to have
his private graveyard. was no more replete with
amenities and epthets than are the pages
of the Congressional Record. A senator calls
a private citizen "crook." Another senator, be-
hind the barrier of his office, calls worse names
The private citizen comes back with the compliment
tary statement that senator is "cowardy
vagabond" and dirty reprobate" and the other
"blasphemous and blatant hilibilly." He invites
one both the wearers of the toga TO come from
behind senatorial privilege and meet him "alone in
a room" ,t.
The constitutional protection thrown around
made the floor 10 sound but there are times
when the privilege is greatly abused 1t is ques-
ton whether some Of the remarks made with ref
erence to persons who handicapped in replying
would find expression If the official did not feel
the protection of his position.
There be such thing refinement in
personal attack. Former President Wilson is now
exemplfying that fact. In his attack on Senator

THE NOVEMBER ISSUE.

These are the halcyon days of hunting, throwing
roping and branding the issue that is to be led
around later by ring in its for exhibition to
the voters at the election in November Naming the
issue is the fayorite indoor sport Of the moment,
Senators joining merrily in the pastlme, the
only trouble being that every time somebody puts
his finger on issue and says, "Tag, you're it,"
some other fellow up and shouts Nothing dong!"
1t seems impossible to get near an agreement as
to what the issue shall be.
The Hon. James Cox, still puzzled by what hap
pened to him in November. 1920, and believing that
the people did not know what the issue really was
at that time, thinks it's got to be the league OF
nations again-making sure that the voters
know what they are voting on next time. He is
aided and abetted in his desire and demand by some
republicans, but they offset by some democrats,
who are afraid of the issue. Some republicans aver
the issue will be economic, and some democrats
assert 1t will be something the republicans may or
may not do between now and the month OF the
election Meanwhile W. ]. Bryan is understood to
be standing around ready to spring the Darwinian
theory as the paramount issue at the psychological
moment.
Perhaps when the time arrives. the people them
selves may take hand in saying what the issue is
to be. They have been watching the course of
events rather closely the past year and some
months, and pretty well able to Judge of the
progress Of events They have seen a step taken
in the direction of world disarmament under the
auspices of the government at Washington, and
they have formed will form very good idea Of
the general purposes and ability Of the adninisra-

scores to settle with certain Of their representa-
tves, in one party and the other. a special ba-
sis; generally speaking they not going to be
influenced extensively this year by hand picked
Issues.
The politicians need not worry. The people are
perfectly capable of determining matters for them
selves and that is what they will do.

UNCLE WIGGu4Y AND THE
TEACHER BIRD.
BY Howard B. CARTS.

Once upon a time Uncle Wig
gily Longears, the good bunny
rabbit gentleman, was hopping
through the woods. He had not
gone far from his hollow stump
bungalow before he heard voice
calling to him:
Uncle Wiggily! Uncle Wiggily,
please wait a moment"
At first Mr.. Longears thought
he ought to hop as fast as he
could and find a place to hide.
For" he said to himself, "this
may be the Woozie Wolf or the
Fuzzy Fox" But again the voice
called:
please wait for me. Uncle
Wiggily!"
Hal" That can not be either
of the bad creatures" said the
bunny with a laugh and twinkle
OF his pink nose. "They would
not be SO polite as to say please.
This must be friend of NINE"
And, looking back through the
trees, Uncle Wiggily saw Johnnie
Bushytail, one of the squirrel
boys.
"Scamper along. Johnnie!"

VERSE OF TODAY
DUST.

The dust is swirling down the street.
The dust of musty ages,
The windswept clay of yesterday.
The dust of fools and sages.
Here Anthony again may meet
His Cleo so enhancing
And through the town whirl gayly down
Upon the pavement dancing
Or sitting in some calm retreat
garden wall encloses,
Beneath bough old Omar now
dryer verse composes.
The dust Is swirling down the street,
Perchance among the masses,
Beneath the beat of busy feet
The learned Plato passes.

FINANCIAL.
Wall Street,

New York, May 17--For the first
time in several years copper shares
today overshadowed all other is
sues as the foremost features of
the stock market. Their rise of
one to five points on every extern
sive transaction was attributed to
improved conditions in the metal
industry and probable mergers.
According to disinterested OBJ
servers, however, the strength of
metals was mainly due to the con-
certed efforts OF professional in
terests which apparently regarded
that group as the best vehicle for
the further advance of quoted
values.
Predictions Of an early rise in re-
fined copper prices to IA cents per
pound were freely made in trade
circles. Attention was directed to
the fact that silver and the baser
metals have shown almost steady
enhancement recently.
Speculative interest in steel
stocks was revived on news that
leading manufacturer had been in
yited to Washington to discuss
present and future trade conditions
with President Harding and other
members Of the administration.
Steels had their inning in the
