History Always Repeats

CIT is gloomy moment in history Not for many
Ayears-not in the lifetime of most men who read
ths-has there been much grave and deep appre-
hension; has the future seemed incalcuable
at this time. In own county there is universal
commercial prostration and panic, and thousands OF
our poorest feOWcitZens turned out against the
approaching winter without employment, and with
out the prospect of it.
In France the political caldron seethes and bubbles
with uncertainty; Russia hangs, usual, like cloud,
dark and silent, upon the horizon Of EurOpe while
all the energies resources and influences of the Brit
ish Empire are sorely tried, and yet to be tried
more sorey, in coping with the vast and deadly dis
turbed relations in China.
"It is solemn moment, and no man can feel an
indifference-which, happily pretends to
feel-in the issue of events.
see the end They are, fortunately, as yet mainly
commercal and if are only to lose money, and by
painful poverty to be taught wisdom-the wisdom of
honor, of faith, of sympathy and of charty-no man
need seriously to despair And yet the very haste to
be rich, which is the occasion of this widespread
calamity, has also tended to destroy the moral forces
with which to resist and subdue the calamity"
The foregoing words were written 81 years ago.
They appeared as an editorial in Harpers Weekly
of October 10, 1857. They might have been written
yesterday. We reprint them to remind readers
that the present is not the first time that the people
of the United States have been bese by grave doubts
and fears of what may happen at home and abroad.
We also think it is time Americans reminded
that the homely virtues of honor, faith, sympathy
and charity have brought this nation through more
serious crises than the one we now face.

New Party Launched

WHATEVER its ultimate achievements may be, the
new National Progressive Party Of America,
launched recently by Governor Phillip La Toilette of
Wisconsin, will be watched with considerable interest
by leaders Of the two old parties as well as by the
rank and file.
1t seems obvious that any strength it may develop
must be drawn largely from those who have hereto
fore supported the New Deal. There is little like-
hood that the party will cut much of figure for
time to come but it is conceivable that under
able and aggressive leadership it might become a
force to be reckoned with few years hence
In his speech to the gathering at Madison, Cover
La Toilette roundly criticized of the meth
ods Of the present administration particularly the
ing and spending by the government
But with respect to positive program he was less
clear, and perhaps he Intentionally avoided being too
specific. It is probable that good many people Will
be consulted before anything in the nature Of plat
form is put forth.
Starting a national party from scratch is a
tough job. Watching from the sdelines is more fun

Mr.. Ford is a doer, not taker. His wisdom has

his words He is the foremost example Of the tradi-
tional American spirit Of independence initiative and

the publishers:

truth sharply to the attention of world which seems

Politics And Politicians

THE Young Democrats of Arizona wound up their
Atwo-day convention in Mesa in complete harmony.
For the first time i'll the OrganZatiOns history the
Young Democrats elected their entire list Of officials
without dissenting vote. The comprehensive plat
form adopted by the convention demonstrates that
the young men and women of the democratic party
are giving much time and study to the problems af-
fecting their state and making honest and in
telgent effort to contribute to the progress and well
fare of their state.
The outstanding political events of the past week
were the primaries for the selection of democratic
nominees for the United States senate in Florida and
South Dakota. In both states the issues clearly
defined between the Roosevelt administration and
it's adversaries within the democratic party. Both
New Deal and anti-New Deal leaders and newspapers
considered the Florida and Dakota contests as the
first real test of the Roosevelt strength with the
voters since the 1896 Roosevelt tidal wave.
If both sides were right in the assumption that
Tuesdays primaries would give an accurate measure
Of the Roosevelt popularity then it is apparent that
among the voters the President retains his great
popularity. In Florida, Senator Pepper running with
the New Deal blessing, received more votes than were
cast for his four opponents combined, and twice
the number received by his principal opponent, Rep
resentative Wilcox, running straight-out anti
New Deal platform.
In South Dakota Former Governor Tom Berry won
the senatorial nomination handily. Senator Hitch
cock, ardent foe of the New Deal, poor
third.
In Arizona the primary campaign is warming up
and candidates for this and that office tossing the
well known hat into the we'll known ring in rapidly
increasing numbers.
Behind the scenes the medicine mixing is going on
fevershy in the gubernatorial primary contest and
is breaking out in the open in spots. Nominating
petitions for Robert Jones and James Kerby are in
circulation and Mr.. Jones has issued formal state
ment of his candidacy promising to later discuss the
issues
The formal announcement of Sidney P Osborn
will be forthcoming on or about May 25 and immedi-
atey thereafter his petitions will be placed in c1cu-

ness to the voters demands that gubernatoral can

TWO BOAST GREAT
LINKS ANCESTORS
Scott Is Nephew of Former
Champs, Graham Son of
Jones' Conqueror.
By FRANCIS 7. POWERS.


CHICAGO, March 2l.-The British
Walker Cup team. which will play the
biennial match against the United
States at st. Andrews in June. will be
selected after two days of trials over
the Scottish course, May and 6. A
squad of is has been invited by the
British golflng unions and from that
group the 10 internationalists will be
chosen.
Eight of those invited for the trials
have had experience In Walker
matches, but chances are that Britain
will be represented by several new
faces. Two of the outstanding candi-
dates come from families that have
made golf history in Britain and are
regarded. highly to carry on their we'll
established traditions.
Scott Nephew of Champs.
K. B. Scott. captain of the oxford
University team. is nephew of two
former British championship Hon.
Michael Scott and the late Lady
Hamilton Russell, who, as Lady Mar
caret Scott, won the first three British
women's championships, 1885. John
Graham of the Royal Liverpool Club is
the son Of Allan Graham. who was
runner-up in the 1921 British amateur
and who defeated Bobby Jones, when
the Georgian made his first appear
ance in Great Britain. An uncle. John
Graham, was a player for Scotland in
10 international matches with England
and Long one of the empires best
amateurs.
Two other newcomers likely to
make the team are James Bruen OF
Muskerry, the Irish native champion,
and j. j. F. Pennik of the Royal Ash
down Forrest Club, who is the English
champion, Other probable freshmen
on the Walker squad are E. Bromley
Davenport, J. E. Gent. e. D. Hamil-
ton, A. T. Kyle. D. H. Lewis and
Charles Stove.
British Hope Is Slim.
Veterans of former Walker matches
on the squad are Cecil Ewing. j. A.
D. Langley, Gordon Peters and Hec-
tor Thomson of the 1885 team, which
was beaten roundly by the Americans
at Pine Valley, Leonard Crawley and
Andrew Jameson were members of
previous teams and Jameson will be
recalled as the Scot who defeated Bob
Jones at Muirfield the year Jess
Sweetser won the British amateur
title
The squad which will assemble at
St. Andrews for the trials is repre-
sentative of British amateur golf as
q whole. Bruen and Ewing are from
Ireland. Lewis from Wales, Thomson,
Scott, Jameson and Kyle from Scot
land, and the others from England.
While this group is representative
OF the best amateur talent in Great
Britain, it has no outstanding players
capable of matching strokes with
Johnny Goodman. Ray Billows,
Charles Yates and the others of the
United States team. The British
never have won Walker Cup match,
and there is little reason to suppose
that the 1888 team will be any more
successful than its predecessors.
