Democrats are the loyal people of

Everything is being lined up for
the campaign.

At any rate, the Coolidge out was
not made on a force play.

where in the nomination of Governor

Progress walks hand in hand with
education. The two are friendly

Learn wisdom. Don't aim at the
presidency; aim to be in a position
to renounce it.

The question of farm relief will

As this was written, the Phila
delphia Nationals had lost 48 games,
but then they had played only 68.
:o:
A newspaper that lacks the cour
age to express itself on a great na
tional question does not deserve to
exist.
:o:
Considering some of the other wit
nesses, maybe Mr. Blacfcmer's $200,
000 is more valuable than his testi
mony. :o:
Joe Robinson, democratic candi
date for vice president, is a very
popular man, and his nomination
was no mistake.
:o:
Mebbe one of the reasons why
writers are turning out so many
risque books nowadays is because the
people want books bad. .
:o:
The National Educational bureau
is dead set against any instruction
in the schools by power corporations.
However, opinions differ on this.
:o:
Next to a dentist using a drill on
an aching tooth, a friend claims,
comes a four-year-old learning to
read by trying to spell out the words.
:o:
People rarely consider how much
the automobile has contributed to
aviation. It has shown people that
flying can not be so dangerous, after
all.
:o:
The government has removed the
one dollar toll charge on Bright
Angel Trail. Grand Canyon. Now if
someone will only remove the cost
of getting to the Grand Canyon we'll
all be happy.
:o:
Perry W. Howard, Republican na
tional committeeman for Mississippi,
make the proud announcement from
Washington that he is going to take
the stump in behalf of the Hoover
ticket. Our first best bet is that
Perry will not make any speeches in
Mississippi.

THAT MAN SMITH
The nomination of Gov. Al Smith
as the Democratic candidate for
President will be written in history
as one of the great romances of Am
erican politics.
Perhaps never before has either
party named a candidate who car
ried with him a more tremendous
personal appeal.
There is an irrestable force, mag
netism, and personality in the man
who came up from the sidewalks of
New York to be Governor of the
great Empire State, and is now sure
ly headed towards the White House.
Colorful indeed is the personality
of this man Smith a color and lure
that makes Hoover seem infinitely
remote, impossible for the common
people to understand or love. What
is the secret of this all-pervading
popularity?
It is because Al Smith symbolizes
Democracy, and he must be the real
thing when he can stand forth as
the symbol of a great party, the very
embodiment of its principles.
The rise of the poor boy to the
heights t,he old story, "From the
log cabin to the White House" is
one of the most cherished traditions
It 6ymbolies the equality of oppor
tunity that we have been taught to
prize above everything else. And we
are justified in so regarding it.
For it is the faith that Justifies
our works. It is the outward, visible
symbol of an inner, spiritual grace
to drop into the phraseology of the
churchmen. It is a sign that how
ever much injustice and inequality
we may have in our country, how
ever much poverty and discourage
ment and frustration may rest upon
some segments of our population, the
way is still open. Not yet have we
surrendered to the notion of a rul
ing class, rich and well born.
Al Smith is not so remote from
the average man, either in character
or in name, but that affection can
mount to him. People may admire
Hoover, but their hearts will be far
from him. They will sing "Al's My
Pal," but not even a college cheer
leader will persuade them to sin
about the man who wishes to bring
science into government. They will

lion votes, and even the last name
should bring a hundred thousand.
Millions more will go to Smith be
cause he sympathizes perfectly the
ultimate dream in every American
heart, of rising from poverty to
honor and power
Think of it: a boy
born in nowly South Street, New
York, son of a truckman and a wild
Irish rose; selling newspaper to help
keep the wolf away; sent to work at
the age of thirteen ; earning a simple
wage as clerk in Fulton Fish Mar
ket, and then as a laborer in a
pumping-station; so then the old
shibooleth is true, that in America
any lad can rise from newsboy to
Presi(lent! Nothing could be more

peal more passionately to the Am

'what America has meant to all the
world.

LOW GRADE WHEAT
It is not encouraging to learn that
for some years past our American
wheat, as sent to the terminal mar
kets, shows increasing damaging
from preventable cause. In 1926, we
are told, no less than 59. S per cent
of the wheat inspected failed to
meet the grade required of No. 1.
Many of the shipments were con
taminated with smut, with the wee
vil, with garlic, with weed seeds and
other foreign material. Some of this
foreign matter can be removed, but
the removal is not without cost to
the millers, and the tendency is, of
course, to shove that cost back upon
the producer. If the foreign matter
is not capable of being separatede
from the grain, it is likely to lower
the baking qualities of the flour.
The smut disease can be prevent
ed by treating the seed wheat with
chemicals. If this is not done and
the smut comes on, the farmer is
likely to find the market value of
his crop decreased from a few cents
to as high as twenty cents per bush
el. No legislation at Washington can
put a profit into a wheat crop under
such conditions as that. As to weed
seeds, the relief lies in sowing only
clean wheat and in such cultural
methods as will prevent the produc
tion of weeds in the growing grain
If farming can be made to pay a
all, certainly clean farming will In
most likely to attain that end.

AMERICAN NEWSPAPERS
Andre Siegfried, a Frencn writer
in his book, "American Comes of of
Age," makes The statement that Am
erican newspapers, since they live
entirely by the advertising, "are
bound to fall sooner or later under
the influence of high finance and
big business which pays for public
ity." His statement has aroused
good bit of comment, and the maga
zine Personality in its July issue
prints replies to his charge from a
number of leading American news
paper owners and editors.
All of the replies a very good, and
point out the fallacy of Siegfried's
policy very effectively. But the
briefest one in the lot, that given
by Robert McLean, of The Phila
delphia Evening Bulletin, covers the
eround adequately. Mr. McLean's
reply follows:
"I can only say that the American
citizen is a discerning reader, and
if the American newspaper editor
were subject to the 'influence of high
finances and big business,' as M
Siegfried charges, the editor might
just as well hang up the shutters
and send for the sheriff, because his
readers would melt away as rapidly
as snow in the summer sun."
