LOOKS LIKE BLUNDERS.

We think that some close friend to
the able, energetic leader, Hon. Mar
Gus Garvey should find way to re-
strain him and to influence him rela-
tive to his extreme utterancees. The
provocation may be great, but every
word he utters now will be used
against him rather than in his favor.
The language accredited to him at the
meeting of his followers in Liberty
Hall, June % 1924 in our opinion
should never have been uttered by him
although some OF his subordinates
could have voiced similar language
with less injurious effect.
His enemies are goading him into
the use of this kind of language and
laugh gleefully, when they read the
threats, which he is now making. They
feel that their blows have struck
home" Still, he may know his busi-
ness and it may be that he will come
"rlghtside UP with care" but in view
of these sporadic out-bursts, we doubt
it. He has launched a great drive for
many millions of dollars to finance
his mighty Black cross Navigation
and Trading Company drive, let him
stick to that. He has thousands vt
friends Loyalty supporting him. He
can afford to drop traitors to the
cause, but there is no need of making
too much fuss about it. Circulars
within his own organization can ac-
complish the same result.
His enemies see or think they see in
his newspaper outbursts, the disinte-
grafton of the movement and they in.
crease their efforts to handicap and
defeat him. Enough said.

Brooks, aged .janitress at the Sea-

following an illness of some length.
Aunt Arnica," as she was known
to hundreds Of travellers, railroad
workers and residents here, was
one of that rapidly disappearing
ante-bellum type known as good
negroes" and in her humble posi-.
ton served faithfully and well over
many years. She was always care
full and solicitious for the comfort
of travellers ON the Seaboard at

and friends for that system. She
was about 70 years of age and had
lived in this community practically

be the Progressive and the Repub-
hcan, it's conceivable that the DEM
oerats would prefer a Progressive
to a Republican and so elect the
former.
Or, since there are a good many
conservative Democrats as well as
Republicans these two groups
might combine and elect the Repub-
lican.
If the two leaders Should be a
Progressive and Democrat it isn't
SO certain that the conservative Re.
publican swOuld join the conserva-
tive Democrats, for Charles w
Bryan has something OF a reputa-
ton as a progressive himself.
This might slightly increase the
Progressive candidates chances
on the theory that the Republicans
would prefer a progressive PROGRESS
slye to a progressive Democrat Bur
the probabilities are they wouldn't
that they'd prefer almost any,
thing to a Progressive.
Finally, in case the two leaders
should be Republican and a Dem
ocrat, the assumption is that the
Progressives would prefer the more
or less progressive Charles w.
Bryan to the avowedly conserya-
i've Charles G. Dawes, and as the
balance of power is the Proeres.
siVes. that would mean Bryan's
election.

WASHINGTON, July 26.-sup-
pose, at the polls, neloasr Calvin
Coolidge, John w. Davis nor Rob
ert M. La Toilette gets enough
votes to give him majority IN the
electoral college.
One of the three will get a plu-
rality, but none may get "ma !,
jority over all" which is necessary
to elect.
Indeed this is what the Progress
sives really are fighting for. = CT
course they hope La Toilette will
get a majority. Some even say
they think he will do so. But what
they honestly do believe to be
among the reasonable possibilities
is that he will prevent anybody
from getting a majority, that may
be he will get a plurality.
In such an event, as frequently
has been mentioned, it will be up
to the House to choose a president
from among the three highest can
didates.
But the House, too, may easily
be deadlocked.- The Progressives
hold the balance of power there
They can prevent the election of the
Republican candidate or the Demo-
cratic but they can't electe thu
Progressive, and there is no proba-
bility chat either the Republicans
or the Democrats will help them.
If, by the next inauguration day,
the House has made no presidential
selection, the winning vice presiden-
tial candidate will become president
Now, if no presidential candi-
date has a majority in the electoral
college, it is most improbable that
any vice presidential candidate viii
have one, and that choice will be
made by the Senate. But the Sen
ate does not vote on the three
highest candidates. 1t votes on
only two.
Ordinarily, then the Senate cart
deadlock for if there is a tie, then
the presiding officer, that is to say,
the vice president, casts The decid-
ing vote.
In thu Senate as in the House,
the balance of power is the Pros
gressives' II the two leading vice
presidential candidates happened to
