and he has 236. There are 80 yet to go.
Some of the more powerful OF Smiths
friends think he could carry Wisconsin. 1t
would be am amazing political overturn for

Those who manage somehow to exc out a
majority for Smith try to find the rest OF has
electoral votes in Minnesota, with IL, and
Michigan, with IA.
But this computation at point after point
makes extreme and improbable concessions to
Smith. It comedies him Connecticut, and that
is doubtful. It comedies him the solid south,
and almost any well informed political observ-
err would be willing to wager that Smith as
the democratic nominee would lose at least
two states out of the solid south. The compu-
tation comedies to Smith Wisconsin and
Michigan, which are very strong republican
states, and Minnesota, that is almost as strong
ly republican. =,
To the casual observer it would appear thu

SENTIMENT NOT cRYsTALIZED

In the weeks following Mr.. Coolidge's an
nouncement that he did not "choose" to run for
President of the United States again, the daily
newspapers of the East and Middle West sent rep
resentatves into nearly every state in an endeavor
to sense the public pulse it's choice for the Re
publican candidate for President next year.
The outstanding candidates appear to be Hoov-
er, Hughes, Dawes, and Gowden in about the order
named.
1t has been claimed that the former Illinois
governor has Minnesota all sewed up in nice lit
tie package. Charles Cheney. the political seer of
the Minneapolis Journal rather doubts if the SEN
timent in Minnesota has crystalized for Mr.. Low
den or any one else.
1t Il true that several cheap politicians of the
State have endeavorei to stampede the Minnesota
Republicans for Lowden, but they meeting with
Indifferent success The Herald has it on reliable
authority that Mr.. Lowden is not overly elated
with the personnel of the selfappointed committee.
Recently personal emissary visited Minnesota, in
vestgated conditions and before he left stated that
when the former governor decided to open his
campaign in Minnesota the management would be
placed in charge of man who is famous for his
ability as an organizer and not the self-apponted
committee. If Mr.. Lowden names the man he has
in mind at present his campaign in Minnesota will
develop considerable following.
At this time it appears to the Herald that the
wise position for Minnesota would be to send a
delegation of representative to the national
convention with instructions to use their best judg
ment after they arrived the scene of action and
sized up the situation. /

A QUESTION OF VIEWPOINT

President Coolidge recently named Dwight
Morrow to be ambassador to Mexico and the av-
erage newspaper opposed to anything President
Coolidge might do is throwing fit because MIR.
Morrow has ability enough to be connected with
the financial house of j. P. Morgan. The fact
that he is associated with Morgan is pretty fair
indication that he has ability In commenting ON
the appointment recently, the Hutchinson Leader,
Democratic says:
Mr. Morrow is a prominent member of the
banking house of J. P. Morgan & Co., and
for that reason will be criticised right and left
by politicians, but he is "a man of keen intellect,
high ideals of public service, absolute integ-
rity, and Of diplomatic temperament. He will
be able to conduct negotiations with the Mex
ican authorities with minimum of friction,
as he will have their confidence and respect
This appointment indicates the entire good
faith of Mr.. Coolidge when he said he did not
choose" to run again. Heretofore most OF
his appointments have been purely political:
This one was not. He can afford now to tell
the politicians to go hang. 1t suggests the poss-
ible wisdom of proposal that the president
ial term be extended to eight years with IN
eligibility to reelection.
Carlos Avery, the Leader editor rs bg enough
to appreciate the value to the country to have a
man of the ability of Mr. Morrow handling the del
icate Mexican situation which confronts the United
States. The Park Region Echo of Alexandria
(Farmer-Labor) takes the following viewpoint of
the appointment:
Sending member of the house of Morgan
as ambassador to Mexico is slap in the face
to that nation. 1t would have been just as
polite to send Doheny, the big oil crook, who
has immense holdings of oil land in that coun-
try, grabbed no doubt just as he tried TO grab
our naval reserve at Elk Hills. The Mexcans
want peace and friendship with us, but they
are intensely suspicious of our intentions. The
appointment of Morrow will intensity that sus-
picion, rather than allay it. 1t was an ill-ad-
vsed appointment and the Senate will have the
support of the West and South in rejecting
it, and of many fairminded people even in the
East.
The Herald editor has met up with a number
of fairly stable men in our journeys about and we
have found them to be just much interested in
the general welfare of the country as the "holier
than thou gang of reformers who question the mo-
tive and honesty of any official who does not fall in
line with their political line of action.

ly twice as much area and twice as many farmers
as several of the counties to the SOUTH making it
impossible to give each section of the county salts

is gaining momentum to appeal to the county COM
mioners to provide the funds to re-establish this
service. One of the really outstanding benefits to
community of County Agent is the encouragement
and development of Boys and Girls club work. In
many of the Southern Minnesota counties the County
Agent is permanent fixture. With the wealth Of

On this extreme assumption, Smith would
have 203 electoral votes. He would need SO
more. Where would be get them
Give him Maryland, which is a very wet
state-that makes 211 for him. Give him
Missouri. That is commonly called wet state
because of it's two big cities, St Louis and
Kansas City. But it is doubtful if Missouri
is a wet state in the sense of voting for Smith.
The bulk of the democratic vote in Missouri
Is in the rural districts. Those rural demo-
Gratis are dry. They would not vote for

is said that they must use adjoin-

Der of potatoes to the hill. r. M.

with a number of other men went
on hunting expedition and while
driving along through the great
open spaces an explosion occurred,
which set the wheels of excitement
in motion. Some of the occupants
jumped from the car, while others
held up their hands, anticipating a
holdup. Upon investigation of the
car and countryside, it was found
that Doc had neglected to remove
a bullet from his pipe. None were
hurt and the old pipe was none the
worse, having received a thorough
cleaning out.

According to the Granite Falls
Tribune, the reputed House of Da-
vid team that played in that city
was not composed of members of
the Benton Harbor, Mich, colony.
They were all good players, but not
subjects of King Ben. Editor
Hakes, of the Hector Mirror, was
curious to know the facts and
wrote Ito the colony regarding the
team. The answer received follows:
"Your letter of inquiry at hand
and in response to same will say
that the team you have reference
to is not the House of David team.
They are an ex-House of David
team and should not be travelling
under this head as they are not
members of the House of David !"
The reason for the editors inter-
est in this matter was the fact
that the manager hired a couple
of players without asking concern
ing their religion but with the de-
mand that they let their hair and
whiskers grow.

NOT MUCH HOPE FOR AL

Mark Sullivan, nationally known newspaper
and magazine writer, had very interesting article
in Sundays Minneapolis Journal in which he frank
ly discussed the chances of Al Smith, Governor OF
New York, becoming president of the United States
in the event of his nomination by the Democrats
next year, which seems probable.
Mr.. Sullivan says there are two political
questions which will come before the National con-
ventions next year-Prohbition and the farm relief
question. OF these Mr.. Sullivan says:
AS to prohibition, Smith is on the wet side.
AS many wet votes as there are in the country
Smith presumably can get. That is his chief
capital
The only other political issue active enough
to express itself in measurable v0ting is the
farm question. large number of farmers
and others in some 10 western states are
acutely dissatisfied with the republican atti-
tude toward their industry. But Smith cannot
profit by this issue. Nobody thinks of him
being identified with the McNary -Haugen side
of the farm question. On the contrary,
ing from the largest city in the country, the
largest community of consumers, Smith must
be, as respects the farm question, on the side
of the consumers, who want the lowest pos
sible prices for food to prevail
Mr. Sullivan says that he is convinced that,
with Smith the candidate, at least two of the states
of the solid South would repudiate him for his
wetness. 1t will take 266 votes in the electoral
college to elect President next year. Mr.. Sullivan
summarizes his countrywide survey of Mr. Smiths
chances in the following manner:
Admitting that Smith would carry New York
although many republicans and many observers
as well do not admit this; admit that he would
carry two other populous eastern states, Mas
sachusetts and New Jersey; admit that he would
carry Rhode Island; which he almost certainly
WOULD admit that he would carry Connecticut,
which is probably doubtful, though for the pur-
pose of the present computation it may be con-
ceded him, these states would give Smith the
following electoral votes:
