came to fame, he was reporter on
newspapers whose political affiliations
covered both sides in two party CON-
troveries. The people who laugh at the
humorist's jokes or read his stones
because they are delightfully."- written
are seldom concerned with the writer's
political views.
In fact, even if this were not the
case, it has been demonstrated that
no man is powerful enough to carry
with him in any direction any consid-
cradle number of the electorate.
In 'S6, for example, Jesse Owens,
the Olympic champion Splinter and
naturally a hero of his race, was par
AIDED as a supporter of Landon. Yet
President Roosevelt received the al
most unanimous vote of the colored
citizens.
Individual defections from, or &C.
cessions to, either party have no sig
nIficance. unless the individual is rep
resentative of large group. Then it
might be possible to make a deduction
that such an one spoke for majority
Of that group. The circumstance that
such an one might be the titular lead
err Of an organization varies this for
mula only slightly, if at all. Under
our system of election when a man
goes into the polling place he is to de-
post his ballot according to his own
convictions and not those of anybody
else.
In 1882 and in 1896 there were
headlined by the Republican press men
high up in agricultural circles, in labor
circles. and in veteran organizations
a. being for Herbert Hoover and Al
fred Landon, respectively. And the
result Of those two elections showed
that the headliners represented only
themselves when it came to voting.
Celebrities will make the headlines,
but they do not make votes unless
they happen to be people OF ols1lnct-
ion outside of the immediate reason
for their celebrity.

entered at the postoffice at Coulee
City, Wash. as second-class matter.
Published Every Thursday Morning
In the Interest of Coulee City and
the NeiyhbOring Vicinity.

In politics the booers Of today are
the boosters of tomorrow. The nation
al convention is an emotional affair.
The supporters of John Doe for a no.
mination regard the partisans of Rich
ard Doe as public enemies and subver-
sive fanatics, and vice versa, The
newspaper reporters and radio broad
casters seeking dramatic features to
interest their readers and hearers
record every demonstration of dis
approval as indicative of disunion
diaster. Political, and particularly in
trastase controversies, merely illust.
| rate the exaggeration of feeling at \
tense moment Rarely if ever, are they
an indication of similar lack Of har-
fmonv in the November election.
1 noted, fer example, in Mr.. Mark
Sullivan IS comments on the conven-
ton, this sentence: "The most incred-
ible thing that ever occurred in ga
thering of Democrats-the booing OF
the name of Thomas Jefferson" he
heralded as an event of paramount
importance. The galleries and such
of the delegates as participated in the
cutlery weren't considering Thomas
jefferson but were merely voicing
their disapproval of the sentiments OF
IA 1,o4 hn1
, ed Democratic name.
Had someone said from the plat
form, for example, "Heaven help the
Republicans, and had that sentence
been followed by Bronx cheers from
the gallery, it would not have been
Heaven that they were booing but the
Republicans.
Those of us accustomed to attend
conventions may recall that the trib-
utes to Franklin D. Roosevelt were
greeted by angry outcries from the
same galleries at the Chicago conven-
ton in 1892; yet it would be a safe
bet that every participant in tina par
ticular cacophony voted for Roosevelt
in the election It odesn g make any
difference whether the noise makers
were there with specific Instructions
as was the case when Willker supper
ter, Sam Pryor, loaded the galleries
lat Philadelphia. They are unimport-
ant.
The same thing may be said of the
stories of individuals Of greater orless
prominence whose names figure in the
headlines as coming out for partic-
ular candidate. For example, I noti-
ced in the papers published the morn
ing after the conclusion of the Demo-
cratic convention a statement that
Irwin Cobb had declared for Willhie.

the American humorists. Before he
