HALF WILL FAHT Z 0,y vQQg
BY Albert Apple

Nearly half of the citizens who entitled to vote IN
the 1920 presidential election didn't vote at ALL For every
100 who voted So stayed from the polls This was
figured recently by Simon Mcheet, Washington law
yer who served several secretary OF the late Sen
ator Knute Nelson of Minnesota.
The same thing will probably happen this year.
Mcheet claims that the stay vote" could elect
defeat any candidate for president He's right That's
obvious. t.a. E. E.sr
Mcheet's analysis showed that Is million citizens,
eligible 1920 failed to to the polls The people
did vote totaed 2613832 totang votes cast for all
candidates. .,eg....s Il. a...ao,.
And the vote sackers yell the loudest when anything

Here in America citizens by their ballots have virtually
unlimited power to make change they want and bring
about any reform condition they desresimpy by using
their ballots ntelligently.
Now if Americans paid SIS apiece voting, how
many would stay away from the polls?
And yet failure to vote may cost a citizen good many
times $5n the form of inefficient government high taxes
and waste of public funds %%

CONSERVING OUR PRESIDENTS

Representative Theodore f. Bur-
ton of Ohio, in his keynote address
before the Republican National
Convention, called attention to the
necessity of relieving the President
from a part Of the routine work
which has been becoming an ever
increasing burden upon our Chief
Executives.
Mr.. Burton offered but one sug-
eestion to bring about relief and
that was to extend the merit sys-
tenn in the selection OF Federal en-
ployes. Mr.. Burton says: There
could be no more practical step in
accomplishing this (that is relief
from exacting duties) than to di-
minish the demands upon his time
for the settlement of the questions
OF patronage. This great frame
work of government was not de-
vised for the dispensation Of the
flesh pots of office. The mighty
problems of the Nation in it's for
eign and domestic affairs, the de-
cision Of which must bring veal or
woe to tens of millions, are enough
to absorb the attention OF any
statesman"
Mr.. Burton's suggestion is not a
now one and it is not the only one
which has been made with the
same end in view. The Wilson
breakdown and the Harding death
have clearly emphasized the need
for some practical changes to cur
tail the demands upon the Pres
ident. One suggestion has been
that the Vicepresidency he clothed
with greater authority and that
scme of the work now devolving
upon the President be transferred
to the Vicepresident.
1t is to be hoped that discussion
on the platform and in the press
will lead to some definite action
which will not only relieve the
Presidency from much of the rou-
tine but will likewise make the
Vicepresidency of more value tC
the nation.-Fargo Forum.

Away off in a corner of the gar

was holding up its head 1t was
very close to the ground and the
Twins could see dainty little white
fairy inside of it.
She laughed when she saw the
children staring. "Is my little

So the Titmouse flew away with

After awhile they came to
Switzerland. And the first thing
they saw was mountains. Because
Switzerland is nearly all mountains

enough, when Tommy Titmouse

Washington, June 27.-The first
move Of the LaFollette convention,
called for Cleveland July 4, promises
to be physical one. 4s.f 81. :,
The demand for representation as
delegates from this, that. land the
other organizations qualified for rep,
resentation lis $50 hesvy that the
present outlook in the B. of L. E.
auditoriusn. where the meetings we're
first scheduled, would be packed to
the doors with the delegates alone.
!. There would he mo room for "dis-
tinguished .prpgressives," attending
in personal, not a delegate, capac-
ity. There would be no room for
merely interested" visitors, whom
the conferences hopes to convert to
active support of its candidate and
platform. xg
Last, but not least, there would be
no room for the newspaper and mag
azine representatives. And without
these last there would be no ade-
quate dissemination Of the news of,
the event, on which to great de-
gree hangs the, understanding Of.
and support for, the conferences
conclusions. ~
Wherefore, 10 days before the con-
ference was due to meet, a hurry up
call was sent out by Arthur Holder,
secretary Of the Conference for Pro-
gressive Political Action, under
which the meeting is called, to find
q larger hall.
The Grays' armory. with double
the seating capacity of the first au.
ditorium, seems now the likely
choice. If that proves too small,
there still remanE the great public
hall, which even thu Republican con-
vention failed to fill in its early ses-
sions.

The old cry of "it's too damp" is
being downed by hygienic investiga
ton. 1t is being found that pref
udices against common dampness
greatly exaggerate the evils. It's
healthier to live in damp or foggy
air than to remain shut-in.
Those who react to dampness,
drafts and all such changes are quite
likely to be the people who spend
great portions of their time shut up
in rooms and offices.
