The United States Supreme

Federal statutes, of which we

LANDON'S SPORTSMANSHIP

Governor Alfred M. Landon of Kan
sas is back on the job at Topeka without a
gloomy outlook, expressing great satisfac-
ton at the thousands of letters he has re-
ceived from people all over the country.
Although badly beaten in the presi-
dental election, the Governor proclaims
the world of beauty in the United
States, remarking what vastness, what
desolation, what richness, all combined
within single country"
He terms the people marvellous, earn
est, active and enthusiastic. He says, they
are friendly, fair, live decent lives, take
their politics seriously and studiously."
Moreover, the Governor thinks that
presidential campaigns are Wonderful"
and should be maintained as they are
now" He thinks they bring the people
into closer relationships with their govern
ment, develop enthusiasm and deep in
terest in public affairs and bring home to
the people many facts of wide Importance
to them in their ordinary lives and business
activity
We think Governor Landon exhibits
real craftsmanship in these observations
which reflect credit upon him. However,
his. sense of fair play is more evident when
he ,answered the question of a reporter
who asked what was the most severe
shock that came to him during the CAM
palgn. Governor LandOn'S reply was. 1.-The
booing of the crowd when the name of the
President of the United States was men
toned. To me, that was the most severe
structure upon the fairness and decency of
the American people. feel that the
President of the United States occupies too
high an office that the discussion of his
policies should be greeted with boos It
was really distressing to me and l hope it
can be stopped

BIG MEN ARE SHY

1t may sound cynical, but it is a fact
that the really capable men of the coun-
try are becoming extremely shy of politics
and political jobs. Whenever a man who
has made a success in life is proposed as a
candidate for either election or appoint
ment, he is Immediately bounced upon by
the demagogues and bounded without
mercy.
The situation was sized up some years
ago by the late Will Rogers, who with his
keen insight said of presidential appoint
ments:
big men won't take them, for they
won't take chance on Senate insult If
he has ever earned more than a Senator,
he is in league with big business. If he
ever drove Standard Oil truck or was a
bookkeeper in a Morgan bank he is in
league with monopolies. If he is rich he
is in league with the devil. But if he has
never done anything and has been fl
nancial failure at that, he will pass the
Senate as brother
While these are the words of a humor-
list, they contain lot of truth.

1928, 900 TO ORPHANS

1t is pleasant to chronicle the fact
that Col. E. R. Bradley, the only horseman
who ever sent to the post four winners of
'the Kentucky Derby, has placed in the
mails checks for total of $4,000 to pro-
vide Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners
for the orphans of Kentucky. We under
stand that this years contribution will
bring to S223,O0O the amount that this
sportsman has given to Kentucky orphans
since 1921.
In 1920, he inaugurated charity race
meets at his farm, paying all expenses and
giving the receipts to the orphans. In four
years the meets Melted $103,000 before be-
ing discontinued during the depression.
