WARREN G. HARDING
Described by Commoner as Man
Who Took Delight in Doing
Kindly Things

MIAMI, Fla, Aug. 11.-Warren
G. Harding was described as man
who took delight in doing kindly
things" and one whom "it panied
to offend or even to be thought
Indifferent to the wishes of aBoth-
err. in a tribute paid by William
Jennings Bryan, addressing a mass
memorial service in Royal Palm
Park Friday. His friends, who
were many, loved him. Mr.. Bryan
continued. He learned early the
wise mans recipe: "A man that
hath friends must show himself
friendly"
Mr. Bryan said the country had
never had in the White House
man whose genial disposition was
more contagious or who made one
feel more at home in his presence,
adding: He was easy to get ac
quainted with and once acquainted
you could not help being attach
ed to him, however much your con-
victions on matters of public poll
icy may have offered from his"
1--WE mourn the death Of War
rem G. Harding" Mr.. Bryan said,
"but the clouds do not entirely
conceal the sun. As we consign to
the tomb all that is mortal of our
beloved and lamented president,
we rejoice that his mantle has fall
len upon worthy successor" )"
Mr. Harding took a position on
public questions as they arose." as
serted Mr.. Bryan, "and he did not
hesitate to make his position
known, welcoming any risk that
his utterance might invite" His
speeches and MESSAGES showed
growth in breadth and depth and
earnestness," he said, and declared
that Mr.. Harding's grafton at the
funeral of The Unknown Soldier
will "stand among the masterpieces
of our orators, while the address
which he delivered in behalf Of
our nations participation in the
work Of the World Court exhibit a
high purpose and determination
worthy of mis- great office"
The Commoner declared the
humble circumstances from which
Mr.. Harding rose to the presidency
and those attendant upon Mr..
Coolidge's early life and the nam
ner in which the oath of the great
office was administered by his
father, to be ga delightful COM
mentary upon the simplicity Of our
government.

WHOLE OUTLOOK
CHANGED.

The new outlook upsets Demo-
cratic calculations, too. The Demo-
cratic leaders thought they just
knew the type of man and sort of
platform they have to oppose. The
fact that they're almost certain now
to have to face an altogether diff
terent type of candidate, standing
for an altogether different line of
policies, may force them to change
whatever campaign plans they've
Tentatively made.
Americus times-recorder., 1923-08-11
YOU CAN'T
TELL.

1t looks like a pretty good bet
that Coolidge won't be the nominee,
unless he performs miracles in less
than year, for he's classed gen
eraly as more conservative than
Harding was.
And yet it's impossible to be quite
sure. On showdown, in the con
vention, the Republican conserva-
tIves may prove to be stronger than
the progressives, so-called, not so
strong as surface indications have
led people to suppose.
Seemingly the man whose chances
have been most strengthened is
Hiram Johnson.
Americus times-recorder., 1923-08-11
THIRD PARTY
PROSPECT.

The third party movement may
be affected, as well. Perhaps as
the old line groups policies develop
there won't seem to be much need
OF a new one. For example, with
man like Hiram johnson in the
field as regular party nominee
this is just an illustration and no
prophecy at all-it wouldn't appear
that there'd be any necessity for
the progressives to name a candi-
date of their own.
IN THE
RUHR.
England's made up her mind that
unrest in Europe kept alive as she
sees it, by Frances course in the
Ruhr, has got to stop.
Premier Baldwin said so in. the
house of commons last week. He
offered France one last chance to
joint in rehabilitation policy which
the British, he declared, intend
definitely to adopt Otherwise. he
added, England will go ahead with
her plan anyway-alone or with
such help as she can get.
In the house of lords, at the
same time, Foreign Minister Lord
Curzon gave warning that Europe
is on the verge of chaos unless
something's done quickly.
There seems small chance that
France will yield.
Americus times-recorder., 1923-08-11

DE w AMI imam he. For In
stance Magnus Johnson's defeat of
Harding's choice, Governor Preus,
in Minnesota, looked that way. A
so-called progressive nominee, these
Republicans believed, would get
votes Harding couldn't get. But
NOT to renominate him, they also
believed, would cost the party the
support of numerous voters who
considered him entitled to another
term.
In short, it was feared changing
candidates would lose more votes
than it would gain.
Now, however, the party leaders
are at liberty to use their best iudg-
ment. There's no reason why they
shouldn't make as radical selec-
ton as they deem desirable. There
fore, not only will there be a new
name at the tickets head, but the
policy the ticket represents may be
quite different from the one Hard
ing's views undoubtedly would have
held his party to.
