AN APPRECIATION
Despite the fact that yesterday was
a legal holiday, Labor day, The Times
decided to follow the example of the
large dailies of the states, and give its
readers the benefit of the news of the
day. The day being a holiday, how
ever, the cable office observed holiday
hours, and opportunity to get the news
of the day was very limited. Through
the courtesy of Private John Champlin
of the signal corps, operator in the
cable office, who remained at his post
all day, The Times was enabled to get
its regular news service, including the
championship boxing contest at Ben
ton Harbor. The Times greatly ap
preciates Private Champlin’s assist
ance in giving its readers the news of
the day while it was news.
HOME STAYING HARDING AND
RUNABOUT COX
It is not easy to imagine anything
cheaper than the pretense of Govern
or Cox, as expressed in his address
recently that his program of hopping
around over the country proves that
he loves the people, while a candidate
who does his talking from home
thereby demonstrates his lack of af
fection for the populace. Everybody
knows that every candidate just loves
the people to death while the cam
paign is on. In that respect, Govern
or Cox is no exception to the rule.
But is he more of an apostle of the
people than Abraham Lincoln, Avho
stayed in Springfield, 111., throughout
'the course of the campaign of 1860?
No one knows better than does
Governor Cox, as a newspaper man,
that a thousand people read the
speeches made by a presedential can
didate where one person could see
and hear the candidate, even if he
spent all his time barnstorming. To
day national campaigns are won or
lost on the printed page.
When the proceedings at the Cox
notification were delayed, Governor
Cox said to a friend who expressed
the fear that he might not have a
chance to make a speech: “What’s the
difference?. It is the audience that
reads this speech, not the one that
hears it, that is vastly more numer
ous.
A presidential candidate should
weigh his words. Indiscriminate
“shooting off the mouth” is neither
dignified nor politically safe.
Gov. Cox has already made a few
impromptu remarks that might better
have remained unsaid. The candi
date who is hippOdroming about has
no time for study and reflection. And
it is far more important that he should
give the people a ,true picture of his
position on public questions than
that he should kiss a few dozen thous
and babies, squeeze the hands of a
few scores of thousands of voters, and
prove that a presidential candidate
can draw nearly as 'many people as a
circus. This isn’t a race for constable
or a beauty show, or a back-slapping
contest. It is a battle of ideas and
ideas can be better formulated and
expressed in the quiet of the Ameri
can home than in a Pullman sleeping
...
car.
No candidate for president could
make a more favorable impression by
personally facing large crowds than
could Senator Harding. But Mr.
Harding very properly wishes to ac
centuate the idea that this is not a
mere personal contest between him
self and Governor Cox over the ques
tion of who is to have the job of
| president of the United States. It is
a great contest between two theories
of government: two conceptions of
Americanism. The 'ninety-nine men
and women who could not personally
see and hear the presidential candi
date if he were to board a circus
train and go about the country, have
as much right to be considered as
the one man or woman who could
gratify curiosity by gazing on a presi
dential candidate. The ninety-nine
per cent has a right to expect that a
man who is presenting his claims for
the presidency should do so in the
most effective way possible, and not
go gurgling and babbling about the
nation on the back end of an excur
sion train, leaving behind him a trail
of complications such as have been
created to the embarrassment of pol
itical parties in well-remembered cam
paigns of the past. There can be no
objection to a few set speeches at
some stragetic points, but this hippo
droming proposition, about which
Governor Cox has been playing the
demagogue, is one the Republican
presidential candidate should, and
doubtless will, let severely alone.
I THINGS WE THINK
Things Others Think and What We
Think of the Things Others Think.
If you were liappy all the time and
showed it serious-minded persons
would merely think you silly.
You may be as homely as a hippo
potamus, but if you have a heart as
big as one, you’ll be beautiful.
An automobile owner always en
vies the man who owns a car the next
grade better than his own. To avoid
this envy, don’t own a car.
People who quote, “It’s no disgrace
to be poor,” infer that it is a disgrace
to be rich, whereas even so they
would be willing to be disgraced.
Then there is the class of rich
people wrho regard their money as
valuable not for what it can buy but
for wThat their having it keeps others
from buying.
A good many men seem to think
they have to talk a good deal to ad
vertise themselves, but if they’s re
main quiet others would give them
equally bad advertising.
The men who are so gun-shy they
won’t believe anything their bankers
tell them for fear of being “skinned,”
are the easiest victims of the 100 per
cent dividend stock salesman.
