BIGGER THAN BROOKHART
(St. Paul DjSDatch)


If his hairbreath escape from
disaster is not converted into de-
feat by the official count. the poll
teal fate of Smith W. BrOokhart
will rest. finally. with the United
| States Senate.
There the outcome apparently
| will hinge upon a technicality in
terpreted by election judges in
BrOokhart's favor. Five thousand
ballots marked with cross after
Daniel +. Steck's name, but also
with an arrow pointing TO 'iae
| cross, copied by voters from
sample ballots printed in newspa-
| perS, are declared to have been
thrown out on the ground that
they carried marks of identified
ton, contrary to the laws of Iowa.
The question for the Senate, in
case of contest, will he whether
to count these ballots.
Now reports and forecasts of
what will happen there are coming
out of Iowa. They say that Brook
hart is likely to be seated. They
say he is likely to be seated be-
cause the Republican Senate will
prefer senator who is sometimes
Republican to an opponent who
| will be always a Democrat. They
say the Senate likely will not
count these 1900 or more ballots,
despite the fact that the voters in
tention to vote against Brookhart
is unmistakable. They say the
decision will be made on the as
sumption or assurance that Smith
Wildman BrOOkharl has been
tanned by the avalanche of votes
| against him--that henceforth he
will be the good and regular brand
| Of Republican he hitherto has de-
| spised.
1t occurs to us that the real is
sue at stake is far more important
than the political fate of Smith
Wildman BroOkhart The UniteL'
States is governed by political par
ties. 1t is our system, and thus
far nothing better has been de-
vised. Political parties. there
fore. should mean something more
than their mere names.
In the United States Senate the
question Will be this: Shall
Brookhart. renegade Republican
who attacked the Republican can
didate for President in the midst
of the campaign, be seated in con-
travention of the obvious wishes
of the electorate. because ne wears
the party label? 1t seems to us
there can be but one answer TO this
| question. That answer is NO"

Her embarrassment and fright,

Charlie Matthew. dapper, nervous
newspicture editor, has lived in New,
York most of his life. He knows New
York like your nose knows rose,
but he seldom visits Greenwich Viii
lage.
Last week several ladies from Gin
cinnati were guests at his home.
They wanted to see New York's b.
hemia, SO Charlie volunteered to act
! as escort.
Arriving at Washington Square he
| asked policeman where to go, what
! place would be good one in which
to show the out-of-towners bit Of
life.
YOU'D better go home," the cop
| answered. 'They rob you in these
places. You get a big check and you
| see nothing but four-flushers."
Still determined to explore the
! lairs of ong-haired men and short
haired women, Matthew approached
five other cops.
And they all told him the same
| thing.
i A friend of Pete Havenaugh, the
actor, told me little story about
him today.
Some time back Pete had quite
roll in his pocket. 1t was late at
night and, fearing hold-up, he put
some Of the bills in the swaziland of
his hat.
And he was held up. And slugged
over the head.
He awoke in hospital, suffering
with mild form of amnesia. He
lost weight and when he left the
hospital his hat was a bit large.
1t wasn't until he started to stuff
paper in the swaziland that he found
his forgotten wealth.

New York, Nov. lathe spirit
Of all New York, past and present, is
epitomized in an ancient graveyard
that lies just off the Bowery near
Chatham Square.
1t is in the shadow of the worlds
tallest buildings. 1t is stones
throw from Chinatown and from the
haunts of desperate criminals. The
elevated trains roar by. Tenements
box it in.r
And above the graves washings
hang, dripping clothes almost sweep
ing the tops of tombstones.
This was the first Jewish grave
yard in the United States. 1t was
consecrated in 1856. Some of the
tombstones have been standing al
most three centuries.
Once it was the center of the Span
! ish and Portuguese Jewish colony
the first Jews to land in America. 1t
was already a landmark during the
Revolutionary War and its site was
used as a fortress at that time.
Times and men have marched on
! since then, but sentiment and tradi-
ton have remained 'immutable. Life
is so crowded in that part of New
York that it can hardly persist, but
reverence for the dead protects the
sanctuary of Wondering bones.
And there you have the symbolism
of New York.
This vast fabric of humanity is
shot through with tragedy, drabness
selfishness, cupidity and avarice
But in it there are soft threads Of
sentiment.
And such thread is this ancient
Jewish graveyard, with its parade,
of flapping clothes-lines and it's re-
vered tombstoncs.

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

When Mrs. Goose grabbed the
magic dust-pan from the peddler in
the yard of the palace of the King
of Yum Yum Land, she flew up to
the tower where the white crow was
waiting.
"Ive got it," she cried delghtedly.
"I've saved Daddy Gander's dust-pan
for him. It's good thing we came
when we did"
There goes Daddy Gander now"
said the crow nudging Mrs. Goose
with his wing.
They could hear Daddy's voice
saying, SWELL, goodbye, King. That
was fine dinner we had. But III
just put in Il good word for home
folks. The dinner your cook pre-
pared with the magic fork was good
but Mrs. Johns home made bread
was better"
II agree with you," said the king
"That was the best bread l."
Help! Help!" cried the cooks
voice just then, as he rushed out OF
his kitchen waving his arms wildly
"The magic fork is gone! Someone
stole it,
At that Mrs. Goose and the crow
flew down. 1T was the peddler,'
they said. eve saw him putting Il
fork in his pack"
"Good riddance,' declared the
king. Let him keep both the magic
teapot and the fork. Magic never
will take the place Of hard work
Cook, you heard what said"
"Yes'r," said the cook meekly.
"Then back to your kitchen and
kettles!" cried the king. "And here
after when l am hungry, do not
serve ME crumpets and tea"
"Yes'-!" said the cook still more
n.eekly. And he returned to his
kitchen.
Il hope that old peddler never
comes back" said the king. Hes
made more trouble in my Kingdom
than six barrels of monkeys"
THAT may be- said Daddy Gan
der, "but if it hadn't been for the
peddler and the trouble he made, We
never would have found the House
That-Jack- Built.
How do you know you've found
it," remarked Mrs. Goose.
"Humph! know that it is right
up there sitting on that cloud in the
sky" said Daddy. That's where i,
blew when Mrs. Johns bread sponge
raised it so Ii"
Suddenly he stopped talking anG
his eyes nearly popped out of his
head. Its gone!" he cried staring
at the sky. "The clouds gone! Anc
the house and the Twins with it!
Now it's all to do over again. III
not only have to hunt for jack
house but the Twins as WE'LL"
"You have your appetite to thanh
for that" scolded Mrs. Goose. "Wher
you brought the cook home on your
magic dust-pan, you had no bushes:
to stay to dinner"
J But it did smell so good" sale
Daddy.
"Well," said Mrs. Goose NOR
kindly. "It's not as bad as yo
think. The white crow here ha
saved everything. The wind BILE,

Common impression is that Fords gigantic is
due mainly to his manufacturing genius. Quite import

in following his goods market and seeing that
they sell instead of accommodating in stock.
Manufacturers goal used to be merely to sell to the
dealer. Now they recognize the dealer only link in
