Example for Democrats.
G. o. P. reformers hope that If
their program to end convention
tomfoolery works out at Philadel-
phia. the Democrats at Chicago may
follow suit. A Democratic Senator,
Millard E. Tydings of Maryland,
beat Republican reformers to their
plan by year. The Free Slater,
who survived the Roosevelt purge
in 1898, In guest column written
for this observer last August de-
clared that national conventions
are among the least worthy and
democratic of our political institu-
tions.' He denounced them as too
often little more than strange mix
lures Of horseplay, riots and bally-
hoo, with accompanying clowning,
clamor and frivolity." Mr.. Tydings
said, The average convention.

women, acts as if it were assembled
to see Joe Louis fight Tony Galento,
and not to select two leaders to
guide for four years the destinies
Of 130.000,0o0 Americans" The
Marylander added: The available
ity and fitness of the presidential
candidate seem not to depend upon
his ability or his record, but rather
upon the surging crowd parading
the aisles after his name has been
offered The more noise. the more
bands, the larger and longer the

THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE
FOR PRESIDENT f

At the Republican national convention last
week. the Republicans just near noml-
mating Democrat they could--in fact the NOM
nee was Democrat up until within 18 months
ago, and has endorsed and approved of many of
President Roosevelts policies. In looking tor
candidate they wanted one just as near like Pres
ident Roosevelt was possible to find The con-
venton showed plainly that they wanted none Of
the old school G. o. P. Republicans, since it turn
ed down cold the candidates that have been labor
ing in the Republican ranks for years-rnan such
as Vandenberg, Herbert Hoover Senator Taft
and others who have always been with the party
stayed with it loyalty and nursed it when it was
sick nigh unto death'-and then at the conven-
tion the delegates turned their backs upon them
and nominated a man who not only never did
lick in the Republican ranks, but active in
the opposition for many years.
Another handicap the new candidate faces is
the platform on which he is to make the race.
Speaking of the platform quote from the Co.
lumbus Citizen, supposed to be independent, but
which leans toward the Republicans. In its ed-
ton just few hours before the nomination it
said:
God help the Republican party unless it NOM
mates candidate who can rise above that plat
form. 1t started out to be postcard platform
and wound up as catalogue of pressure group
promises, coupled with nostalgia drone that
might have been better expressed in the words
Were against war; we against sin; we're
against keeping the Democrats in
1t is almost beyond belief-considering the op-
portunities and responsibilities of the times, con-
sidering that the rresolute resolutions committee
had access to the intelligent report of Glenn
Franks program committee-that such a docu-
ment this has been adopted as the platform of
the Republican party in the year 1910. It's
trainers not only ignored the bold and forward
looking program for dynamic America that
had been hewn by months of thoughtful effort.
They scorned the literary craftsmanship that a
man such Dr. Frank could have contributed.
They ought to be sent to school. They even mis-
quoted Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg address.
We wouldn't insult Joe Grundy by accusing
him of writing the tariff plank. Joe was always
willing to permit a few imports, at least of raw
materials which American industries need if only
for the purpose of keeping the shipping lines
alive"

NEWS WE DISLIKE TO PUBLISH

Last week we carried news item, the like of
which we very much dislike to publish. We have
reference to those boys who have been in juvenile
court. We would thousand times preferred to
publish something good about them but to have
ignored it, would not have been fair to our read
ers. who take the paper and pay for it in order to
get the news. In this connection we wish to state
that bitterly regret the action of those boys
They certainly starting out in life on the
wrong path, and unless they mend their ways
right and keep them mended for good, they
are going to be handicapped throughout life. The
public eye is on Them and in order to overcome
the handicap in which they have put themselves
it will be necessary to shun even the appearance
of evil. The court has been most lenient with the
boys and is giving them every chance to make
good their promise from to walk straight
Some may fault the papers for publishing mat
tiers such referred to above. Please keep this
in mind that it is the duty of papers to publish
news-they don't manufacture, make news
but when it is made, the papers have the perfect
right and expected to publish it. To do other
wise would not be treating subscribers fair who
take the paper for the news. Items such as we
