NEM YORK'S VICTORY

"In' or New York" has managed
 to nose out Chicago. St. Louis and San Francisco in the race for the Demo-
 cratic National convention. Chicago
 having retired Mfore the home stretch was reached. Well, it's good to
 sec struggling little place get on.
 Once, 56 years ago. New York had
 the same honor. But people have for
 gotten, and these are the days of Tt
 doesn't matter what you were-its
 what you are today" So, all things
 considered, one is glad that New York
 is going to be livened up to some in-
 terest in national affairs and will be
 made to forget. for Il little while at least, that she is not the only pebble on the stretch of sand washed by the ocean.
 But in all seriousness New York is quite a different place from the hectic town, where no good is, that many people of the west believe if to be. We all know that. But the important thing is to impress upon the delegates and others drawn to that city by this big event that New York has its real homes, it's corner groceries and it's Main street just as those strangers have in the old home town The people of Now York one runs across are as friendly as the people Of the small towns-.and they do not become half so worried about other peoples busi- ness.
 The convention. and the spirit that will Of necessity influence it, will be too big a thing this year to be moved by the place in which it is held. The [ fact that it will be in New York will not hurt or help Governor Al Smith if he becomes prominent candidate for the Democratic nomination. The |. questions to be considered are too serious for petty considerations to deaden the wisdom Of the decision . made. The Republican party will in all probability present a regular, con- servative man. President Coolidge as it's nominee. To put forward man against him the Democratic party will undoubtedly approach the work to be done with more than customary seri- ousness. will endcavor to meet com servatism with wisdom and confidence and to find a man for it's representa- tive who will possess all Of President coolidge's good qualities with the ad- ditional ones Of greater courage. stronger personality. and q capacity Tor the sort of leadership which de- mands results in the way of progress.

STAND UP FOR MABEL
Illinois Federation Of women's Club Table Resolution Which Recom-

Chicago, Jan 17.--Members Of the first district. Illinois Federation of Women's clubs yesterday refused to approve a resolution recommending that Mabel Normand films be ban- ned. The resolution was tabled by a large majority.
 Opponents of the proposed action declared 1t was time enough to act on such resolution after the grand Jury had heard the evidence and rem dered verdict in the shooting of Courtland $. Dimes by Horace A. Greer. Miss Normand's chauffeur.
 As soon as the film star has suffi- ciently recovered, she will be invited 10 address the Women's Association Of Commerce and tell her story, Mrs. Sophia Delayan Cowies, president of the association, declared. She said it was absurd for Chicago clubwomen Ito follow the lead of a few foolish women in a small town club, who thought they were doing their duty, when they passed such a resolution" {"
 Men stick together-it's high time women did. especially until they know the real facts Of case" de- cleared Mrs. Marion Biel chairman of the district committee on IegisIa- ton.

\ DISTASTEFUL DUTY

It would be pleasant to ignore any particuarizing in regard to the small ness displayed at the common council session last evening. but it is some thing of an unpleasant duty to refer to the attempt made by one who in troduced the resolution, to tell depart ment head to see to ii that an ordin- ance requiring promptness on the part of clerks in city hall be lived up to. It is bad enough that any member of the council should think it his duty to suggest that city employees punch a time clock" to indicate that heads of departments are not competent to manage their own departments. But it is worse to realize that when the proper motion to table" the absurd resolution came, there were only l5 members of the august body to vote to so dispose of it. A bare majority of the council eVinced their contempt for the pettiness Of the resolution.

Coolidge Has Opposition Poll of Alma
 Mater Indicates

Amherst, Mass, Jan. 17.-Notwith- standing that President Coolidge is an Amherst college alumnns, he is not receiving undivided support from the undergraduates. Both republican and democratic clubs have been formed among the students within the last few days and the democratic organi- zation was said today to show the larger membership. When the for nation of the republican club was announced this week a meeting was promptly called by the opposition for the formation of an Independents democratic" club with mo members of the college republican club admit ted" A large number enrolled.
 Committees from each club are conferring separately on policies and candidates, reports indicating that Coolidge may be the republicans choice, with some opposition from the radical bloc. No word is forth coming from the independent-demo- crats as to their nominee. This party seems likely 10 control the undergrad uate press. as it included the editors of The student. the college paper; Lord Jeff. the humorous sheet. and the president oSsthe Press club.
