Warren G. Harding is a very respectable Ohio politician of the second-class. lie has never been a leader of men or a director of policies. F,).- years a protege of Foraker, he rose to a subordinate office by favor of "Boss" Cox, of Cincinnati. Beaten by Judson Harmon in the contest for the Gov ernorship in 1910 he has never shown independent strength in his own State save when he was named for Senator in 1914, having a majority of a little more than 100,000 over his Democratic competitor; and outside of Ohio he has only such strength as he now derives from his place at the head of the Re priblican ticket. Senator Harding's record at Washington has been faint and colorless. He was an undistin guished and indistinguishable unit in the ruck of Republican Senators who obediently followed Mr. Lodge in the twistings and turnings of that states man's foray upon the treaty and the covenant. The nomination of Harding, for whose counterpart we muht go back to Franklin Pierce if we would seek a President who measures down to his political stature, is the fine and perfect flower of the cowardice and imbecility of the Senatorial caba Ithe charged itself with the management of the Re publican convention, against whose contr9l Governor Beeckman so vehe niently protested. Rejecting Leonard Wood, probably the strongest candi date with the people the party could have chosen, because they knew he would never be dictated to by them. they favored Governor Lowden until Boralk served upon them his notice of a veto of that nomination. Borah was commanding and truculent because he knew that he had to deal with a group of white-livered and incompetent poli ticians. If Republican leadership had not fallen into the hands of pigniies the chief men at Chicago would have told Borah to bolt and be hanged, just -n Beauty HIE .J" Grand Championship at tional Live Stock tt Chicago.

But they ran like a frightened flock, -surrendered everything, Mr., Lodge finally throwing off all dis guises and standing out as the open foe of the covenant of the league of nations, -even with his own reserva tions. What has befallen the Republican party of the early days, the party of sixty years ago, when it was possessed of moral purposes, or of forty and thirty years ago, when it could still profess to have them and find be lievers-? . Where are its leaders that can be compared to bforrill, SOward, Hale, Platt, of Connecticut; Oliver P. Mor-1 ton, Sumner, Blaine, Conkling and a dozen others who rose to high places in the party councils? And, if the question be not too unfeeling, where and what are its principles, if any it' have? Party control, exercised by a group of Senators, is divided between Lodge on the one hand and Borah and Johnson on the other. Norte of them, none of their accomplices in party deg radation would have come within hailing distance of the foremost rank of party chiefs in the brilliant days of Republicanism. And for principles, they have only hatred of Mr. Wilson and a ravening hunger for the office. Governor Coolidge for Vice President; really shines by comparison with the head of the ticket. He at least is a man of achievement, he is known to the party and to the nation. When' the police force of Boston went on strike he showed himself to be a man. He met that menace to the public safetyi with courage and determination, and the nation rang with praise of him. It is fortunate that not a word is to be said against the character of either candidate. They are irrcproachable. But that does not compensate for the lack of achievement, for the color lessness of the candidate for first place, or fo rthe manner in which his nomination was brought about. It, will be felt and said everywhere thati the Democrats at S.n Francisco have received from their opponents at Chi cago the gift of a splendid oppor tunity. LINGUA AMERICAINE In a British railway carriage, of the type known as 'American' because un like the majority of cars it has an aisle the length of the car, two United States soldiers in khaki were standing ih the aisle. Nearby were seated a prim and qlderly English lady and her (daughter, who were gathering their belongings, preparing to alight at the next station. Suddenly thelt lady nudged her daughter and whisp- 1 ered: "Mary, mind what I say, When c we get ofT do just as I do, and back down the aisle. I can't tell you why Just now," Daughter obeyed and both ladies left the train as if departing' from the presence of royalty. Safely' arrived on the platform. the daugh ter naturally asked why. "Mary," said her mother, "you saw those two Amnerican soldiers--they call them donghboys, I believe. Well, when we startedl to get out I overheardl one of them say to, the other: "When those hi two <!amels get off we'll pinch their v seatts!"--American Medical JTournal.
