Keep Off The Grass. /"

The Coolidge spokesman, who re-
liberated time without number that
the president had no intention or de-
sire to dictate the nomination of a
vice president at Cleveland, disclosed
the presidents real sentiments in
the matter-that the keep off the
grass" sign applied to members of
congress.
1t is not difficult to understand
Cooidge's reasoning, in finally
putting up the sign, when it began to
appear that Senator Curtis might
be the choice Of the convention.
Just as soon as the Curtis candidacy
was taken seriously, William NJ.
Butler, Coolidge's campaign manager,
promptly came out for Judge Kenyon
former senator from Iowa. This
was the first time anything had come
from CooIdge's cohorts to indicate
that he favored any particular man.
It is very clear that Coolidge is
not going to make the campaign on
the record of the congress, and
therefore did not want a member Of
the congress on the ticket with him.
1t is equally as clear why Coolidge
will not want to seek the presidency
on the congressional record, because
the congress did not always meet his
views His vetoes were twice over
ridden, and another one might have
been, but for the fact that it was
given just as congress was adjourn
ing.
Congress refused to follow presi-
Dental advice on the bonus or tax
revision, and this fall we will find
out whether the president or con-
gress was right Elk.

Of Significance with the monarchists in
the German republic. A newspaper
reporter has dug up the old story OF
the visit OF William Frederick, king Of

attempt on his life in 1s49. The gypsy
told William that he would some day
become emperor of Germany. She
actually predicted the year 1871. Al
though the old king smiled at the time
Of the prophecy. we know that 1t was
fulfilled. The gypsy added that the
empire would crumbls away In 1914
and that the throne of Prussia would
be swept away. That also has come
true, But the gypsy woman added
that the empire and the PrussIan mon
srchy would be restored again on
March 10. 1927. Whether the woman
will be right remains to be seen.

Political Dsmnnopnes.

Brigadier General Dawes an
nounces that in his candidacy for the
vice presidency, he is going after the
political demagogue, and that he will
ask no quarter and will give none.
Irrespective of politics, if he is in
any measure successful, he will per-
form a public service that can
scarcely be estimated.
The political demagogue is the
curse of the United States. The
man who win promise anything,
when he knows in his heart that it is
not for the best interests of the
country, merely for the selfish
purpose Of maintaining himself in
office, is not worthy of public
confidence, and politics will continue
to be in disreputc among the great
mass of the people as long as he has
any voice.
The demagogue misleads and pros
titutes public opinion by diverting
attention from vital matters of gov
eminent with appeals to class hat
reds, He is truly un-American and
may his clan grow less as people
awaken to the fact that he is an
evil genius who will tear down Amer
lean institutions and ideals. rather
than build them up, as he makes it
appear he will.
Gen Dawes says that political de-
magoguery is curse the world over.
The world has seen what grasping,
unprincipled political leaders have
done to Europe
The same fate awaits the United
States unless the people who put men
in public office come to realization
that everything candidate for of
flee says is not always true.-Ex.

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
By S. W. STRAUS
President Of American Society for Thrift

Various authorities who have
made surveys of the fraudulent in
vestment situation are agreed that
the annual losses thus sustained by
the people of the United States
amounts to $1,000, 100000.
One way of looking at this matter
is to remember that the sum lost
through illegal investments is just
about equal to the total amount of
our annual savings bank deposits.
And there still is another way of
looking at it.
An eminent economist estimates
that the total yearly savings of the
American people amounts to
S12, 900, 100000. This includes all
net additions to our national wealth
both through the saving of money,
through investment in durable goods
and through increases in values. 1t
is the net annual profit of the great
American family A third of a
century ago the total wealth output
of our nation was no greater than
our annual net accumulations of
wealth today. England and Ger
many before the war added only
about one-sixth of this great sum to
their material resources.
The fact that we thus are able to
pile up $4,000, 100000 in new
wealth each year is sufficient proof
of the opportunities for financial
progress that are held out to the
individual in this country.
Where there is such opportunity
for legitimate advancement, it is all
the more deplorable that so many of
our people should seek advancement
through methods that result in loss
and disaster.
The situation is due partly to
ignorance and illiteracy, partly to
the gambling instinct of many, and
partly because of the abnormal de-
sires of thousands of our citizens to
get rich in a hurry.
No one should lose sight of the
fact that billion dollars a year
flowing through illegal channels
means that legitimate business has
been deprived of that much money
and that heavy budren is placed on
the public through impaired business
activities and added costs of living.
The rightful earning capacity of
money has its limitations, and when
: representation are made otherwise
it should be borne in mind that such
representation either are willful
efforts to defraud or spring from
business principles as unsound as the
shifting sands of the sea.
