THE HORSE
Essay by an East-Indian Boy)

The horse is very noble quad
ruped but when he is angry he will
not do so. lie is ridden on the
spinal cord by the bride and sadly
the driver places his foots on the
stirrups and divides his lower limbs
across the saddle and drives his
animal to the meadow. He has a
long mouth and his head is attached
TO the trunk by long protuberance
called the neck. He has four legs I:
two are in front and two are after
wards. These are the weapons on
which he runs and also defends him
self by extending those in the rear
in a parallel direction toward his foe
But this he does only when in a
veNaiious mood. His feeding is
generally grasses and grains He is
also useful to take on his back a man
or woman as well as some cargo. He
has the power to run as fast as he
could. He has got no sleep at night
time. but always standing awaken.
Also there are horses of short
sizes. They do the same as the
others are generally doing. There is
no animal like the horse. No sooner
they see their master or guardian they
always crying for flooding. but it is
always at the morning time They
have got tail. but not so long as
the COW and other such like animals.

SHAVER ADMITS
ELECTION NOW
FAR FROM SURE
Throws B o m b Into
Democratic c amp !;
Progressives M a k e
Impossible Promises.

Nashington-Clem Shaver, John
Davis campaign manager has thrown
bomb into the Democratic camp.
II the election were held tomorrow
no one Of the three presidential can
didates would receive majority OF
votes in the electoral. college," said
Shaver this week in a burst OF
irankness, talking 10 a group of news
papermen. Chairman Shaver's asser-
ton is a fiat contradiction of the
numerous statements put out in his
name by the Democratic publicity
men. in which they claimed every
thing in sight for Davis and insisted
he was as good as elected. Naturally
there IS havoc in the Democratic ma
chine. No doubt. Chairman Shaver
told the truth as he sees it when he
spoke for himself, and not through
his publicity bureau. Only a week
ago attention was called in this
correspondence to the folly of
national chairmen claiming every
thing in sight" and while it is hardly
to be supposed that influenced Mr.
Shaver to tell the truth for once,
it is at least refreshing to get the
honest opinion of a national chair
man, even if it disrupts his party ma
chine. OF course the truth is that no
one believes the extravagant claims
least OF all those who, through paid
publicity agents. make them. And
the further truth is that no one
knows how the election would go
were it held tomorrow. That Davis
is making no converts is obvious. But
how many is La Toilette making9
That no man knows. However, with

reckless born OF the knowledge that
they Will never be called upon to
make good, are making the most rid
icuious promiSes-promises which will
probably fool the fools. while they
make intelligent men laugh. For in
stance. in his campaign book La Fol-
lette promises. BY public control Of
water power. TO furnish the farmer
with electric current Tor IS cents a
day. equal to the labor OF men and
a four-horsc team" Every intelligent
man knows that that is not only im-
possible but preposterous: that the
great cost Of electricity is its distri-
button. where maintenance Of wires
and loss by leakage constitute By far
the most tremendous factor of eN-
penSe; that until science has devised
some method OF cheaper distribution
no man and no government could
distribute electricity in the amount
indicated FOR IS cents. or even for
$3.50 day; that were such a thing
possible the demand from the pro-
prieiors OF small shops and factories
Tor cheaper electricity would become
so tremendous that there would be
no resisting it. And intelligent men
who analyze the profit and loss sheets
OF the big electrical power companies
know that they are not making in
ordinate profits at existing rates
and they employ the most expert en-
gineers in the world. But then. If one
is never to be called upon to make
good his promises and he is counting
on appealing only to those too ignor-
ant to analyze those promises-why
not promise everything in sight?

History in Campaign

As Nichols Murray Butler points
out, there never was a time when the
people of this country needed so
strikingly to recall their history les
sons as during this campaign. Every
republic ever established has either
failed entirely or degenerated at times
into revolutionary anarchy except the
United States. And the United States
has lasted because OF great wisdom
OF the trainers OF the Constitution and
the intense respect which the people
has had for that wonderful instru-
ment. The Contitution provids for
three distinct. coordinate branches of
the Government. the executive. lcgisla-
tive and judicial and that system has
endured because IT has proved sue
cessful in protecting the rights of
minori,ies, Minoriiies in this country
do not undertake to start revolutions
when they are beaten as they are
prone to in many other republics in
this hemisphere. and as they have
in the older republics of the past.
because they know their rights will
be protected and that if their views
are correct they will ultimately pre-
vail. La Toilette would lay the axe
10 the foundation of the Constitution
by giving to Congress power to over
rule the Supreme Court. His PROPOSE
ton is so revolutionary that, while
it appeals to some who are too impa-
ticnt to make a long fight for their |
opinions, il repels thinking Americans
with love OF their country and respect
for the Constitution in their hearts.
That, as DIR. Butler points out, is why
La Toilette obviously thinks it nee
essary to devote so much time and no |
small amount of Justification and mis-
representation to defending this plank
