HOLDING COX IN LINE.
The esteemed New York Times, than which
' 'Woodrow Wilson and his League of Nations
has had no more staunch supporter, is much
perturbed over the utterance of Chairman White
anent the issue. It does not take kindlv tn th
new chairman's proposal that "progress and
prosperity" is to be the slogan, but reminds him
that the republicans also promise to do some-
thing for the farmer and the mechanic. If in
their platform they had roundly declared that
they would do nothing for the farmer and the
mechanic because they are getting too much
already, that issue might be squarely joined.
In the actual state of the case it will be ex
ceedingly difficult for Mr. White to bring it to
the place of prominence he evidently desires
i it should occupy. ,
I It pains the Times to be compelled to remind
I the chairman that the democratic platform gives
J first place to the League of Nations, and that
l"the democratic candidate has given more
prominence to the League of Nations than to
any other question involved in the campaign."
i'We do not know," says the Times, "where Mr.
Vhite gets his authority to reverse the decision
the convention, to overthrow the declared
cSpinions of the candidate." It is his business to
out and run the machine, not to monkey with
Vopiruons of the candidate.
. However, it strikes us that perhaps Mr. White
is better posted on the point than is the editor
of the Times. The chairman made his state
ment just after a long confidential chat with the
candidate, and it does not seem probable he
would commit his chief without knowing what
he wis about. Signs are multiplying that Gov
ernor Cox does not intend to depend for elec
tion on a defense of Woodrow Wilson's policies
and record. The Times suggests that perhaps
the president is now willing to accept the can
didate's personal reservations to the covenant.
finest apples in the world; and that portion bar
reled and shipped will have all the losses added

Law Vindicated Again.
Conviction of a group of twenty members of
the so-called "communist" party, after a
lengthy trial at Chicago, is a triumph for the
law. These men, with others of their ilk, eon
spired together to overthrow the government
and set up a new dispensation. Within the
literal, and perhaps the true, meaning of the
Declaration of Independence they were well in
side their rights. Our government still "derives
its just powers from the consent of the gov
erned," and it is yet the right of the people "to
alter or abolish it" whenever it becomes de
structive to the ends for which it is instituted,
and to set up such government as shall secure
those ends. No right has been more freely ex
ercised by the American people. The adoption
of eighteen amendments to the Constitution of
the United States, accomplished in order and
expressive of the sober judgment of the people,
is proof of this.
The trouble into which the communists and
other groups of that sort find themselves
plunged from time to time grows out of their
mistaken ideas as to procedure. Instead of
openly trying to win support by the reasonable
advancement of their ideas, they seek to prop
agate revolution by methods that are opposed
to public order. Their conclaves are held in
secret, and the only open manifestation of their
activity is seen in the violence they precipitate
Herein lies the danger from which the govern
ment seeks to protect itself and its citizens by
sequestration of these fanatical agitators.
Whenever the American people decides to
adopt the communistic, the soviet, or any other
form of government in lieu of the republic that
now exists, an orderly way is provided to
achieve that end. In the meantime proponents
of forcible revolution need not be surprised if
occasionally the law steps in and applies
proper punishment for their unwise attempts to
do something in the wrong fashion.

Vote for a Real Candidate.
Frank A Harrison, whose disposition to bolt
the party nominee threatens to become a habit,
is urging his friends to desert Governor S. R.
McKelvie and vote for Arthur G. Wray, the
"Committee of Forty-eight" candidate for gov
ernor. In the same breath, he undertakes to
foment a bolt from Harding by Nebraska repub
licans who favored Hiram Johnson's nomina
tion.
If it were any one other than the esteemed
Mr. Harrison who made such a suggestion, one
would be forced to doubt both his consistency
and his sincerity.
Harrison deprecates McKelvie's claims to
republican support vcause, he says, he did not
receive a clear majority in the republican pri
mary. But neither did Senator Johnson, and at
Chicago the senator at no time mustered more
than one-seventh of the delegates to his banner.
Wray has no claim whatever to republican votes,
votes.
No one knows better than Harrison that
Wray cannot be elected. The race is between
Governor McKelvie and former Governor More-

The Times winds up its hortatory address to
the chairman with the admonition: "And on
the whole, it would be better, for Mr. White to
accept the democratic platform as he finds it."
Yet it can not be forgotten that Chairman Cum
mings, who was picked by Wilson as the chief
defender of his administration has been super
seded by Chairman White, chosen by Governor
Cox to be the prophet of his political prospects.
Our democratic brethren are harmonious only
on one point they want to see Harding defeated.
When Figures Are Deceptive.
An old and homely proverb is to the effect
that figures won't lie, but liars will figure. In
the hands of experts book entries and com
mercial transactions may be made to perform
all sorts of remarkable antics and the bewildered
onlooker wonders how it is done. He sees
.1 fl . f. 1 , , . ..

passes made by the professor, as he slips one
entry over and another and by a little legerde
main of accountancy proves that black is white
and that the hole in the deficit is actually a sur
plus mountain high. Something of this sort
was achieved by the Treasury department at
the close of the fiscal year, 1920, when a state
ment was given out that the public debt had
been reduced by more than two billions of
dollars.
This was true, but it told only part of the
truth. Short time certificates, representing
money borrowed by the Treasury, were wiped
to the amount of $2,297,000,000, the books on
June 30 showing that the public debt had been
reduced by that amount during the year. It
was due to the great Influx of tax collections
just at the close of the fiscal period that this
was possible. But the Treasury statement did
not tell the other half of the story, that the
debt wiped out was put right back again; not
in its entirety, but in a very large sum. For the
exchequer actually had a deficit of $600,000,000
at the time, and it was necessary to immediately
borrow this amount to keep things floating.
This short time borrowing has been the most
aggravating and abnoxious feature of the war
time financing. Each secretary of the treasury
has tried to avoid it, and all have condemned
it. tThe necessity for it is slowly disappearing,
and mainly because the republicans in June last
year lopped $1,200,000,000 off appropriations pro
posed by the democrats for the year 1920. In
days to come the Treasury statement may again
b a source of encouragement for hopeful tax
payers, but present claims by Br'er Houston in
dicate his belief that the public is still more in-
Shortages and Waste.
What shortages do to the public is clearly
illustrated by the coming apple crop in New
York state. It's a bumper, and is estimated at
7,000,000 barrels, more than double last year's
yield. As the most wholesome and universally
liked of all northern fruits, the prospect) for such
a crop is most pleasing after a season in which
a jjLuu nyjpii: ima lust iium v ur veins uui ui
the barrel to IS cents served raw on a plate.
But hold. There is a shortage of barrels be
cause of strikes among the coopers. There will
be a shortage of "pickers" to harvest the enorm
ous crop. There will be a shortage of transpor
tation for the distribution of the crop to cold
storage plants.
Result: Much of the crop will not be har
vested. The hog on New York farms will be
turned loose in the orchards to fatten on the
a democratic discontent who votes for Wray
votes in fact for McKelvie.
Let the issue be fought fairly and openly.
The records of both real candidates are well
known. One or the other is to be the next
governor of Nebraska. Voters who take their
citizenship seriously can hardly justify wasting
their ballot on a hopeless volunteer candidacy.
The Ways of Men With Their Boys.
A banker and a newspaper man were talking
of their young sons, both of whom were just
old enough to know that money could be spent.
"I give my boy a dollar a week and he spends
it all," said the newspaper man. "I give my
boy IS cents a week and require -him to save 10
cents of it," said the banker, whereupon the
men separated, the newspaper man pondering
over what the banker had said, says the Wall
Street Journal.
Well he might do so, for as an over-fond
father he was teaching his boy to spend every
cent he could lay his hands on. The banker,
on the other hand, was training his son to put
a true valuation on money, and teaching him
that it was twice as important to save as to
spend.
One requires no special gift of foresight to
divine that a youth taught to save two-thirds
of the money that comes into his possession will
not be pinched for spending money many years,
for his accumulations will soon earn enough to
supply him with an abundance, while the mis
guided youth who spends all he pets can never
have a surplus or know the comfort of invest
ment for income.
IF William Marion Reedy did not gain "posi
tion in the larger sense," as the New York Trib
une laments, perhaps the chief of several rea
sons is the lack of respect for critical standards
in this country. Himself a good workman, Ree- j
dy encouraged good work; but what is vastly
more needed is discouragement of bad work.

that light sprinkling, a friend relates how naively
a bit of brick tweaked his ear in fluttering to

SONG.
The glorious eye of morning
Looks now upon the land;
Inspired, the dewdrops twinkle
Like gems of Samarcand.
The sky puts on her sapphire.
The fields their emerald wear,
And every blossom opens
Its bosom to the air.
No bird but sings divinely,
As though its heart were one
With David's exaltation,
The joy of Solomon.
Oh surely earth is wondrous,
Oh surely life is good
To him whoso soul embraces
. And loves them as it should.

HE'S 65 YEARS YOUNG.
"Among the numerous human all
menta commented upon in your al-
wuys interesting column, 'How to
Keep Well.' " H. W. G. writes. "I do
not remember ever to have seen
mention of certain conditions, which
it seems to be, must result unfavor
ably to the health of many people.
I refer to the pronounced stoop
which I notice many people acquire
as they advance in years and ap
proach the three-score-and-ten limit
From its frequency one might con
elude that it was unavoidable and
yet I have several friends over SO
years old who are nevertheless as
straight as a telegraph pole.
"1 have a personal Interest in the
matter because I have noticed lately
a strong inclination to crouch over
from my shoulders whenever I as
sume a sitting position. When stand
ing or walking I am perfectly erect
and have no difficulty in maintain
ing that posture indefinitely; but as
soon as I sit down I unconsciously
slouch and have to recover myself
by positive and repeated efforts.
"I am 65 years old, 6 feet tall,
weigh 156 pounds, and enjoy excel
lent health. Last summer I climbed
Mount Whitney in California, the
highest mountain in the United
States and did it in half an hour
less than the usual time, besides go
ing through numerous other strenu
ous stunts.
"But this unconscious slouching
tendency worries me a little. Can
It be corrected by special exercises
designed to strengthen the muscle?
ot the back or is it simply a bad
habit which I have fallen into and
which I must overcome by a dogged,
uni emitting, never-give-up , exercise
of the will power, aided by the fre
quent admonition of my fireside
angel to 'sit up straight?'"
In reply A man 65 years old who
has endurance enough to climb
Mount Whitney in less than sched
ule time need not worry about his
muscle strength, his reserve of nerve
power or the condition of his heart.
The proof is good that he is organ
icly sound. But that is not what is
worrying you.
A straight back is not natural in
the human animal. So long as he is
young and his muscles and ligament
tone is good the human animal can
hold his shoulders back, but to do
so requires a little muscle effort
and uses up a little energy. To sit
or walk slouched is really an energy
saver. A very tired man slouehes
as a subconscious method of spar
ing himself unnecessary fatigue.
On the other hand the lungs,
heart, and abdominal organs have
more room and work under less em
barrassment when the shoulders are
held back. In your case you are
developing the stoop which means
greatest easy for you, by reason of
the pecularities of the curves of
your backbone. Slouching will not
harm your heart or lungs or ab
dominal organs.
But it will react on your spirit,
making you accept yourself as more
senile than if you saw a straight
bucked fellow when you looked in
this mirror. I will accept your sug
gestion as to an article on slouching.

An
Investment Opportunity
That Andrew Murphy & Son
Are Offering Has Not Been Available
for a Generation
The chief factor behind sn investment should be the
integrity and character ot the men behind the or
ganization. Three factors enter into the purchase of
investment securities SAFETY, INCOME. INTEGRITY
but the greatest of these is INTEGRITY. INTEGRITY

, and bulwarks the factors of safety and income, to make
more than meaningless terms.
Por over half a century Andrew Murphy & Son
has builded its business upon the foundstion of
conservatism. That this concern has builded
wisely, its very growth will sttest. From the msn
with only $100 to invest, to the one who may have
thousands, not one will ever have cause to regret
the confidence you may place with us.
Ambition, the Master Miracle Worker
AMBITION has been the generating power of the great movements of all ages. AMBITION has worked
the master miracles of all times. Impossibilities have become probabilities, and these in turn, actual
accomplishments before the ambition of Edison, Bell, Franklin, Marconi and others. AMBITION is
crystallized in every great building that juts into the sky, in every home nestling amid rose gardens, in
"pry sublime poem and in every melodious strain. Without ambition we should still be cavemen.
The question was asked by one of our old customers, how did we build up our
business which made us the world's largest individual distributors of motor
trucks? AMBITION and INTEGRITY the keystone factors of our organisation
that is the answer.
Money is the ultimate ambition of the day. Not money itself, but what
money buys. The opportunity for the real earning power of your invested
