Politicians and Popularity.
New York Times, }

tNeW YORK TlmeS.)
From his first inspection of the political
field in the West since the Presidents with
drawal from next years campaign, Wash
ington correspondent finds fact which has
already been reported from other parts Of the
country This is in connection with the sug-
gestion of Secretary Hoovers name for the Pres-
dency. The report is that he is nearly every
where in favor with the voters but is not liked
by the politicians. People speak of him as emn-
emily fit fer the Presidency, but always add that
the party organization is known to be against
him. This of course, is not he whole story.
The same conditions do not prevail everywhere
There are undoubtedly several farming States in
the West where Mr.. Hoover is decidedly unpopu-
lar. The farmers still cherish their grievance
against him for having in time of and sub
sequently fixed maximum grain prices, thus linn
iting the profits which they might otherwise
have made.
Yet on the whole the description of Mr..
Hoover's canidcday popular with the general
run of electors but repugnant to most politicians
appears to be verified The main reason given
is that Secretary Hoover has taken much
interest in party matters, and that members of
Congress and others have found him Indifferent
in matters Of patronage. His mind and time
have been given to other things He does not
suffer politicians gladly. That this is defect
in public and ambitious man must be admitted
So long as we live under the system of govern
ment by party, political leaders cannot wash their
hands of party affairs.
After all the explanations the puzzle remains
why Republican politicians should not take more
kindly to a man whom they have every reason
to believe very popular. Their professed aim in
public life is always to consult the wishes OF
the people They spend their days and nights
lin trying to find candidates who can command
the SURFACES of a great body of citizens Yet
sometimes as see, they draw away from
what seems to be conclusive evidence of popu-
larity. They permit their likes to override their
Judgment 1t is old story, not true OF this
country alone. When Sir Henry Campbel-Ban-
herman was leading the forlorn hope OF the
Liberal Party in the early years OF this cen
tury, people used to laugh at him, and the
Northcliffe press in particular used to have great
sport in ridiculng him. But it finally oc-
Cured to these newspapers to send out agents
to ascertain the truth, and they reported: Make
no mistake about it. Sir Henry is very popular"
1t was not very long after that he became Prime
Minister. The politicians and the newspaper
oracles saw fit to change their opinion 1t
may be So in the end, with Secretary Hoover.
