THE NOMINATION
OF HARDING
Upon a platform that has produced
general dissatisfaction, the Chicago
convention presents a candidate whose
nomination will be received With as
tonishment and dismay by the party
whose, suffrages he invites. 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

ast Upon the issue of the league they
woul4 have defied Johnson to do his
worst. 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.
