DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
The Man To Lead.

Seldom have the qualities Of leadership
in man given a greater demonstration
than those of John W. Davis in not only
drawing together elements that had been
in discord, but in filing them with enthu-
siasm for militant campaign. When all
the prominent figures of the convention
had declared for Mr.. Davis, some of the
Republican commentators said it was only
a fOrmality. But when those gentlemen,
after personal conference with Mr.. Davis,
were found jubilant over him as leader
and prophesying victory. it was plain that
the nominee had personal magnetism along
with his generally admitted high intel
lectuality and executive ability. This
demonstration ought to impress the coun-
try at time when there has been such
wide complaint Of lack Of effective ma
tional leadership
The man who could unity the elements
that participated in one Of the stormiest
political conventions in history should be
able to bring about cooperation between
the executive and legislative branches of
the government. In 1920 the Republican
party was voted full control of the govern
ment by the greatest majority in the his
tory Of the country. Yet it was unable to
carry out any impressive program. Two
years later that overwhelming majority of
1920 was almost turned back to the Demo-
Gratis. The Republicans had a Congress
sional majority only in name. A number Of
Republicans in Congress ignored or voted
steadily against the wishes of Republican
executives. Four years after its over
whelmine victory of 1920 the Republican
party is put in the awkward position Of
having to explain that it could not redeem
its pledges because too many Republicans
in Congress were against them.
II Is thus Of vital Importance to the
country that effective leadership be re-
established in the government.
The man who united the Democratic
party and turned it into a militant force
at time when its opponents thought such
a performance would be impossible can be
depended upon for effective leadership in
every situation.
