CALVIN COOLIDGE.

II a candidate for the presi-
dency was ever named by the
people, it is Calvin Coolidge.
From the delivery of his first
message to Congress the presi-
dent became the foreshadowed
nominee for a four-year term.
Every act of his official career as
the chief executive merely
strengthened the all but GER
tainty of his nomination.
The ineffective showing made
by opponents in the presidential
primaries was the greatest trib-
ute that could have been paid 30
man in American public life.
The American people have conf
dence in him and only a negligi.
BILE percentage of Republicans
have expressed a preference for
any other man for president,
Now this universal demand
has found expression in the
nomination, virtually by accla-
nation, Of the man who, as vice
president, was thrust overnight
from the obscurity Of the vice
presidency into the limelight of
the White House, there to dem,
onstrate, more decisively than
ever before in the history Of
American politics, with possibly
the exception of Theodore Roose-
welt, his fitness for the exalted
office to which he was elevated.
The opposition which the pres
ident encountered in the Senate
doomed large during the recent
session of Congress. An incon-
siderable numerical coalition ma
iority prevented the accomplish
ment OF results desired by Cool
idge and the Republicans of the
Senate.
But this opposition is heavily
discounted and distinctly dwarf
ed when it is spread over the en-
tire party and the nation.
The sorry showing made by
the radicals and malcontents in
the Cleveland convention will un-
doubtedly be reflected in the cleo
ton in November. The disgrun-
tied could elect only a few dele
gates and there is no reason for
believing that they will be any
stronger in November.
