Selecting a Candidate.

I'VE found out who the forgotten
4 man is. It's any Republican office
holder above the grade of assistant
state geologist who hasn't been pro-
posed by self or friends for next years
Presidential nomination.
On every side, disinterested pa
troits feverishly suggest some death
less name that nobody outside the i'm
mediate family ever heard of and, 10.
a national figure whose fame doesn't
cover as much territory as a milk
route Is In the running. Almost any
body who can read and write appears
to be eligible, especially If he litho-
graphs we'll, and, If he has also the
firm yet clinging handshake, his stock
goes right up.
The concern is for a candidate only.
When 1t mi to q platform, the DEM
ocrats can lend them n which has
teen used hardly any, II at all.
