What about that great army of honest and self- respecting Democrats throughout the country, that came under the Harding banner in the late cam- paign and supported hitn at the polls? These men and women are entitled to recog- nition. Their unselfish and patriotic ‘action, their high compliment paid our candidate and their recognition of his superior character, all call for proper show of appreciation. < It is not a matter of reward for sérvices rén- dered, for the men atid wotnen of the Democratic faith who voted for Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge did it, not for hope of reward, but from Higher and purer motives: Therefore it is recogni- fon they should have. Invitation to join in, the “administration, in thé actual government to lend their further assistance in securing for the people, what they desire and what all good citizens desire. While party ofgafiization and party government i§.essential and party responsibility to the people is a matter riot to be overlooked, representatives of this Democratic contingent should be brotight into the family council and assigned a definite work to perform. ‘ = And while under all circumstances The Tribune ia partisan Republican newspaper, it hopes at the sate tine that its readers will never find it unfair of unjust, even to Democrats in mthe - opposite trenches, ‘let alone those Democfatswhio place @ighteousness above party atid have helped us ac- éomplish a great work. : = We trust Warren Harding will not show that harrow partisan spirit we have grown to despise in Mr. Wilson, but will rise to the country’s obligation to these Democratic men and women and employ their brains, energy and ingenuity in the rebuilding ‘ef the country brought low by the unfaithfulhess of the party leaders who betrayed them. The American dollar and the American cock- fail have driven out the last of the folks who peo- pled the famous “Boule Miche” and. the “Rive Gauche” of song and story. A new language is now spoken in the Latin Quarter. This is one thing dhe war has done to Paris. ~ THE FADING SOLID SOUTH. = Of the eleven states of the old Confederacy, the téaditional Solid South states, the Democrats this Year carried ten; by total pluralities of a half mi- = Ton. Republicans carried each of four statese— New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois and California, by lBrger pluralities. Each of the statés of lowa, Minnesota, Massachusetts, Michigan and Ohio came in- their Republican pluralities within a hundred thousand of the total Democratic pluralities in the so-called Solid South. Oiitside of these ten Solid South states the Democrats secured no electoral Votes except from Kentucky, where théy pulled ad through by the skin of their teeth. The Southern | States of Oklahoria and Tennessee had total Repub- lican pluralities of thirty-five thousand, while the border states of West Virginia and Maryland gave, together, 115,000 for Harding. New Mexico and Arizona gave combined pluralities of nearly 15,000 for Harding. In other words the Democrats, with the women voting, had net pluralitiés of less than a third of a million south of the Ohio River— less in the aggregate than each of nine northérn States Gave twaftie Republicans. Twenty states of the ii | ahs larger pluralities for Harding than were en for Cox by any Selid South state. The Solid is tio tore. With fait election and registra- ¢ laws all but two or three of these states would ve gone Republican wif the rést of the country oo November 2. IT WAS A MONKEY’S REVENGE. . We have all read in the foreign news that King Alexander of Greece died from the effects of a mon- Key’s bite, fait the circumstances of his injury were not given. The details as secured by a London Ex- press correspondent are, that Alexander was walk- jag in the palace gardens, when he heard his fox terrier yelping With pain. The king ran to the spot ~ dnd found the-dog being viciously attacked by one 6f the two monkeys which had been recently pre- sented to hint. He rescued the dog arid chastised the monkey, Which b& hit slightly on the hand. The SS eh ey, © eas fo 32 | war, says the Mining Congress, and for a consider- Was ifritated and again striick the ion bog e other monkey, which up to th rérfiaihed an impassivé spettatot of the scene, sprang at King Alexander and bit him in the mich. The kirig is dead and gone afd the big row for. is throne is now on. ES time Are we neévet to hear the énd of Democratic gtaft arid rottenness? Somebody has dragged a placed it within the view of an already disgusted public, The prices of world products at the clése of the able time thereafter, retainiéd at a level with the highest in the history of modern days. prices have increased more than 100 per cent sitice 1914. In other words, the eriormous stock’ of materials and supplies were accounted to be worth double as ‘much as ‘similar stock would have been accounted in 1914. : It was generally recognized that sooner or later this price level mist fall and the underlying and fundamental reasoh not ¢oftsidetéd by the majority was the fact that the world’s gold stipply, which is the measure of all valuiés, had not increased during that period; and that these enhaticéd values were based upon credits and credit money in greater atiourit than the gold reserves could continuously maintain. : Without a recdgnition of the technical distinc- | tions as to the réal function performed by the gold reserve, it remains a recognized fact that there must be somie stable retatiny between gold reserves and prices. Thi8\is uncdéwbtedly true in wotld ttadé rio matter what temporary expedients of bahk and | \ moriey credit may be established by ahy countiy. | It is adinitted and expected that prices must ‘fall to a much lower level. The Holder 6f goods at the titre of that price decline must necessarily stand this loss. These redtictions are béing resisted at every point by the holder of goods and many schemes are being devised by which prices may be thaiftained. The justice of this proposal-is appar- ént as applied to property purchased at the high @rices ,but if must be remembered that those whose stocks of goods were purchased at the pre-war price, and whe took advantage of the increase in the value of their holdings; should not complain if upon their replaced stocks of goods they are now forcéd fo take a loss, ; e producers of the country as a whole were permitted to roll in uiidreamed of wealth by a theo- retical profit gained by this advance in prices. These same men must now expect to suffer a correspond- ing loss, The readjustment period is only a period of taking losses, ‘the, fortunate circumstance being ‘that it is not at’ all probable that prices will ever téach thé prewar level and therefore the apprecia- tion in value of the world’s supply of goods ftom | 100 percent to 200 per cent will still leave a profit in the hands of property owriers when those same pricés retreat from 200 per cent to 125 or 150 per cent, the level which is likely to be reached in the final readjustment of our fiation’s business. In view of thé fiimerous fatalities connected with automobile excursions; it would be well to as- sociaté with 10 oné you would not care to be found dead with the next morning. FORGET IT. It’s all to Ao purpose. This agitation from vari- ous parts of the coutitry with reference to Mr. Bar- leycorn. If there is any citizen who feels that he carihot get alorig without the aid of old John, he cafi emigrate to Cuba. Not much use to go to Can- ada for the western provinces gave old John as tough a deal as he ever received in this, country, the othér day, and it’s all off up there. This country is geting along beautifully, with- out booze. e people are a lot happier and have fnore than they ever did iti the old days. en it is the law of the land, simply obey the law and forget the existence of the stuff. “You have it to do sometime, sooner or Jater, and it may as well be now. Warren Harding is traveling right along. A Perinsylvania Adricultutist has nattied a brand new orchid in his honor. 5 DECREASE IN SMITH CENSUS.
