ofc big "operator” in Wall street sent around yesterday for an “opinion on the election." He and others, associated in profit able speculation, believe that cer tainty of a Coolidge victory would immediately start the beginning of a "20-point rise in the market.” If. as printed in Cyrus H. K. Curtis’ newspapers, that Hiram Johnson really believes a Coolidge victory in California certain, then "big operators” might as well be gin buying. Republican managers, AOA EKTOiMievr Break a Cold Right Up with “Pape’s Cold Compound” Take two tablets every three hours until three doses are taken. This first dose always Elves relief. The second and third doses completely break up the cold. Pleasant and safe to take. Con tains no quinine or opiates. Millions use "Pape’s Cold Compound." Price, thirty-five cents. Druggists g u a r antee It. figuring carefully, believe Cool idge now has 265 votes safe in the electoral college, without Califor nia. Those that know New York politics on the democratic inside «ay New York is certain for Cool idge, and Davis will run third. Willis Pinkston, young American sailor, high up on the steel mast of the United States ship Richmond, using his keen eyesight faithfully, saw a little flare at sea arfd saved the life of the brave Italian flyer Locatelli. Readers who contribut ed to a fund for Pinkston will be glad to know that the money con tributed, $2,561.35, is now depos ited to Pinkston’s credit in the Bowery Savings bank in New York at his request. On the grave of Anatole France nothing is written except “Ana tole France, 1844-1924.” Fortun ate and few are men whose names alone are sufficient epitaph. The Persian conqueror could order writ ten on his tomb “I am Cyrus, Oh man,” with fewer than 10 words about his worth, trusting history to supply details. Archimedes needed no name at all. On his tomb \when Cicero found it in Sicily tAere was only the figure of a sphere inscribed in a cylinder. Mathematicians would know the meaning of that. Archimedes cared little about others. But a majority of the so-called “great” need full explanation. A few years, then “Anatole France, 1844-1924,” will mean nothing. One French name, “Villon,” on the other hand, will identify genius for a thousand years to come. The Protestant Episcopalians of New York are making an earnest drive to get $15,000,000 for a great cathedral. Dr. Wickersham, much interested, says “the same methods must be employed as in the Middle Ages.” But it was the faith, not the methods that built the world’s great cathedrals. . It was the faith of old painters that created beautiful Madonnas. Faith without works amounts to little. Work without faith, in the religi ous field, amounts to even less. An inspiring sight-was that great ■BwaHHaonai German air boat, shining like pol ished silver in the sun's light, sail ing over New York City early yes terday morning. That flight across the ocean in three days is a tribute to man's genius. A race capable of such achievement will learn eventually to end war. Such European trips by airships will be regular routine, attracting as little attention as an automobile bus line. * Airships have come to stay and will do all passenger carrying ex cept for the shorter distances. What a crime against civiliza tion, and the genius of man, if the German plant that created that great flying machine should be de stroyed by the French, insisting on the letter of the Versailles treaty. There should be some solution of “war danger” better than the de struction of a great industry. The German bonds sold instant ly. Everything went through in theatrical fashion, Morgan & Co. announce that they’ could have sold a billion of the honds. Doubtless they will sell a billion, several bil lions perhaps. Germany intends to pay, and will, if other nations give her a chance. Rut one hostile movement toward the Ruhr by France, and the interest on the bonds would stop. The value would drop to 50, then lower. Germany meant to pay bonds that she sold here in war time. They are worth less than the excellent paper on which they are printed. To be safe in-' vest in America. A race horse called “‘Chilho wee” has broken the world's gal loping record, covering a mile and one-eighth in one minute, 48 4-5 seconds. That would have been important once, now it's a meTc in cident in a gambling sport. Paul I ! Revere today would ride in a small automobile, blowing his horn as he went with thp “cut-out” wide open. Or he would fly close to the ground in his little monoplane, or would stay at home and wake the country side through the “loud speaker” in every house. The running speed of a horse is as unimportant today I as the flying speed of a falcon that, also was important once. Jackie (loogan celebrated his birthday in Vienna yesterday. No tables, solemnly dressed, attended his reception. It must interest the Viennese to reflect that the small American boy whose mother com plains of lack of “good American breakfast food,” could do a great deal by his own earnings, to help Austria in her financial trouble.
