WEDNESDAY, APRIL 28, 1920
If anybody spent anything getting
the Democratic nomination for Pres
ident this year he would be swindled.
Probably the parties are better
worthy of confidence than some of
the parties who are proposing to de
stroy them.
The New York World wants the
senate abolished but it would probab
ly do considerably more good just
to abolish the New York World.
The diplomats who met at Paris
to wind up the war were no great
shakes as peace-makers, but as iness
rnakers they certainly did a thorough
job.
The covenant that is dearer to true !
Americans than any of the inventions
of new-fangled interationalism is the
compact known as the American Con
stitution.
Now that the un-Americanized
treaty has been laid out, a few states
men who wouldn’t take sides while
the fight was on have rushed up to
kick the corpse.
The Indianapolis News says that
with production at zero and prices at
110 in the shade we’re due for a
turnover. Nov. 2nd is the rate set
for the turnover.
It looks as though Jack McBride j
has won the contest for Republican j
national committeeman, defeating Her
^ ron, who had the support of the Wick- j
ershamites machine.
Democratic Chairman Homer Cum
mings says the Republicans got into
power in Congress through “false pre
tenses.” Mr. Wilson just got in
claiming he would keep us out of
war.
Senator John Sharp Williams again
says he would rather be a dog and
bay at the moon than remain in the
senate. Every fellow, we say, in the
job for which Nature has best qual
ified him.
An organized effort is now being
made by administration forces to dis- j
credit Congress. The battles of des- I
potism are always fought by autocrats
upon legislative bodies representative
of the people.
Probably Mr. Wilson thinks that if
he can’t get the first term as Presi
dent of the world he is at least en
titled to a third term as President of
the United States.
Having elected President Wilson on
the “he kept us out of war” platform,
the Democrats are undecided whether
to run Herbert Hoover this time on
the slogan “He kept us out of food” j
or nominate Bryan on the “he kept us
out of drink” shibboleth.
# - ^—
Probably the reason President Wil- !
son appointed Bainbridge Colby Secre- !
tary of Sate was that he being third
in the line of presidential succession
no change in the quality of adminis
tration might he noted should both Mr.
Wilson and Mr. Marshal drop off.
When the federal court and the
Department of Justice begin to give
as zealous attention to election prac
tices in the states of the Solid South
as they have to what goes on in Mich
igan, all those Southern cantonments
will have to be reopened to care for
the convicts.
A Dallas, Texas Democrat writes
to the New York World saying the
senate ought to be abolished and its
functions performed by the Presi
i dent’s cabinet. The truth is that the
administration organs would like to
abolish every agency of government
but the President. After the inaug
uration of a Republican President on
the 4th of March next they will lose
their enthusiasm for the scheme.
We congratulate Geo. C. Hazelet
upon the almost unanimous vote
given him by the voters of Cordova
and Eyak yesterday in his candidacy
for delegate to the Republican nation
al convention. Ketchikan and Fair
| banks were also loyal to our towns
man and give him a rousing big
vote. /
What has the t present Congress
done. Nothing but head off a couple
of billion dollars of administration
expenditures, take the railroads out
of the hands of the politicians and
turn them over to railroad men, save
the republic from the sacrifice of its
sovereignty, rights, interests and
ideals under a European scheme of
super-government, and a few little
things like that.

MEDITATION
Christian democracy applied to in
dustry means the development of co
operative relationship. Day of power
for the laboring classes has dawned,
but with its power comes danger. To
return evil for evil, exact more than
their due, use their strenegth for op
pression and outlaw the capitalist and
employer must eventually spell defea
Self-interest is too weak and short
sighted to help society. The unselfish
spirit found in the Golden Rule and
Sermon on the Mount must be prac
ticed by all, if a, lasting new era is to
be realized. “Bear ye one another’s
burdens and so fulfill the law of
Christ.” Hear the sermons at the
