Hamilton Holt in his very scholarly address upon the League of Nation’s issue in Bismarck Monday pictured the “deplorable condition into which party rule has fallen. “Who is running the Republican party anyway ?”, he ed and there was a grinning, derisive answer from his audience, Where is there any stable leadership, any logical or con- sistent development of policies, any statecraft worthy of the name in Congress? It cannot be found. Senator Lodge supposedly represent- ative of the staid conservative New England is down on hi knees with the Brookharts, the Fre 's and Shipsteads of the west in a most recent raid on the federal treasury. “Criticize the radical west, but where is the effete and solid east? Where is the great defender of traditions? “Jim” Watson dodges the bonus vote. The roll call cites him as absent and not paired. Others who apparently feel | that party responsibility rests heavily upon their shoulders | continue to pass the buck. Borah whose clarion call to duty sometimes strikes home has been heading a senatorial committee to investigate an indictment found against a fellow senator and to exonerate him before the courts have passed upon the law or the evi- dence. Are senators elected to upsurp the prerogatives of the courts ? More evidence of no leadership. In the hurdy gurdy at Washington how can the voice of reason prevail. President Coolidge quietly developing a national policy finds himsel? without party support and the people know that he is greater than party in popular favor. Both the Republican and Democratic parti asunder by blocs and cliques. There is no responsibility for legislation anywhere. Lodge, Borah. Watson are most; impotent leaders. They have repudiated for the most part ; the leadership of Coolidge, Mellon and Hughes whose policies | if followed would bring the nation back to normalcy and cor-!

Yet some of these men, yes and LaFollette too, continue ™* to furciion as Republicans on election day! The hour is here for the conservative and constructive forces in the two dominant parties to insist upon an adher- ence to some policy that will bring results. Calvin Coolidge if given the backing in Congress can bring normalcy to the nation, put its foreign affairs upon a higher plane than parish politics, but the Republicans wii seek to hamstring every policy, every principle for socia and economic betterment he and his colleagues offer, should go down into the political oblivion they deserve, There should be a thorough housecleaning in the coming congressional elections. The nation is tiring of the Lodges, Watsons and their : kind. are tart Ss STEM SLIPS Wide publicity has been given very recently to a dis- covery that in Ohio, where the direct primary system has been in vogue for years, a new system has grown up, the intent of which is to nullify the primary law and to remedy the objections found in it. The system is not new either to North Dakota or to Minnesota. It consists essentially ot pre-primary conventions to indorse candidates who shall : receive the support of the party organization. As expressed in a news dispatch the Ohio system is a compromise ex. | plained as follows: “The compromise provides that primaries shall ; legal pre-primary convention before every general : primary and at this convention a state of officers will be made up which the people can ratify at the pri- mary polls if they care to take the trouble to go through that formality.

Instead of making an end of | the bonus in our polities, they ma sure that it will continue there in a still more mischief-breeding form. While praising courage, do not forget to give a high place to that of these Republican Senators who could face such dread conse- quences without blenching. They displayd, moreov very unusual courage in withstanding the appeaof the most disinterest- ed and intelligent among their constituents. Take the New Eng- land Senators. They were urged to stand by the New England Pre: ident. They were plainly told for example by The Boston Herald, that “if Calvin Coolidge should fail of election to the Presidency in November, it would in our judg- ment be-due more than anything else to the charge which the Dem- ocrats 2 ire to make—that he| lacks abilit sa leader; and they I] hase this upon the attitude of Republican Congress, and par- ticularly of its New England mem- bers ,toward his great vetos.” But did this have any effect upon “our own Henry Cabot Lodge”? Did it} influence Frederick Hale of Maine? Did it cause the two Republican Senators from Connecticut, Brande- gee and McLean, to waver in their purpose? Not for a moment. New England, God forgive her, she’s a- kneelin’ with the rest! There ig a kind of courage which verges on recklessness and insan- ity. Moral philosophers have de- fined it as.“the courage of fools.” publicah ‘Senators have gi country can survive. But can they outlive it?

Instead of spanking him, I made him smash the toy he loves best—a Jittle horse that he hauled with a string.” ae : This mother cruel? By no means, In making her child take his own medicine, she probably effected, a permanent cure. A lad in a western town had a “perfect mania” for throw- ing stones through windows. His mother spanked him. His father thrashed him. It did no good. He continued his stoning. Finally he landed in juvenile-court. The judge heard the case and sentenced him to throw 2000 stones, under the eye of a policeman. -At last report, the lad wouldn’t throw a stone for pay. ~ We know another little boy who simply would not behave at the table. “Delighting in mischief and having a cruel streak in his makeup, he deliberately tormented his mother whom he knew to be nervous. One trick in his repertoire was tapping a water glass with a ‘spoon. r Punishment seemed only to make him worse. ¢ He was cured by making him eat his meals alone until he was willing to behave. The ineffectiveness of punishing youngsters is frequently due to the punishment being administered when the parent is in a rage. For instance, many a father gives his son a trouncing that pa regrets when he cools off. His natural reaction is to atone—to “make up” by gifts such as candy or coins. This naturally neutralizes the corrective effect (if any) of whippin, Never pui ihtia child when you are in anger. Think ic over. No matter how a parent punishes, he should chastise or penalize only when in complete control of his temper. More effective than any beating is to say to a boy: “rf you- do so-and-so, you cannot go to the movies for a month. Now, it’s up to you. If you want to punish yourself, go ahead and be bad.” PUT HORIZONTAL LADD ER IN YARD aN finer’ Backyard Playgrounds Tks is the fifth of a series of 10] by 8 fect. articles on the construction and use| Two pieces, 2 inches by 6 inches! of playground equipment adapted to| by 9 fect (uprights). the back yard.

Immediately there is raised a cry of “boss rule.” Yet it appears that in many states the primary system is gradually being undermined, because of {| dissatisfaction, and no less personage than former Vice- Prégident Thomas R. Marshall is quoted as saying that the priffary system is wrong and eventually will disappear from American politics. The manner in which the primary is | being circumvented in the so-called progressive Northwest-! states with a general agreement among powerful factions, both radical and conservative, that it is proper to circumvent it, and the spread of-this idea to other states, indicates that ‘the prediction of the former Vice-President may not be far amiss. A REWARD FOR SERVICE i District Judges James A. Coffey and Fred Jansonius of the Fourth Judicial District will have no opposition in the June primary or for election. No candidates filed against them. It is unusual in this district, usually closely contested. It is a tribute to J ydge Coffey’s long record of service and an especial tribute to Judge Jansonius, who is an appointive ofti¢ial, and has held office but a comparatively short time.
