Ordinarily it is not important what a defeated candidate may say, but when Franklin D. Roosevelt assumes to speak for the Democratic party and continues the same hypocritical tactics he employed during the campaign, some one should take the gentleman to a cleaning.

And if there were Waste and graft, it was after the product passed from the hands of those who produced and refined it. It was the one great interest that performed its service in the time of crisis and left no trail of scan- dal. The petroleum interests did not count the costs. They sought production, which they knew better than the government did, how sorely it would be required. Under high pressure efforts costs ad- vanced away beyond normal. When war ceased, the tremendous demands of the government rapidly lessened and with it a cur- tailment of the requirements ‘in domestic consump- | tion occasioned by the stoppage of war activities.

They repeatedly impugned his honesty. They at length descended to the lowest level of personal abuse by circulating lying leaflets concerning his parentage. They called | the senate leader of the Republicans a base conspi- rator and the most despised man in America. They accused the Republican party with attempting to’ purchase the election, an insult alike to the Repub- licans and to the voters, They charged that party with conniving with Kaiser Wilhelm to keep the United States out of the League of Nations; with a plot. to debauch the United States supreme court in that Harding, if elected, would appoint judges to that august body whose decisions would be hawked in the market place; with appealing to the hyphen- ated vote and jgrioring the American vote; with planning the rule of the bayonet and the reign of the mailed fist. In their desperation ‘the Democrats dragged the vestments of religion from their chan- cels and waved them in the faces of the people; they invaded the churches with their un-American crusade, and they capitalized the illness of their leader in an appeal to the sob vote; and they dragooned the state department to their purposes. In the choice language of F. D. Roosevelt, oppo- nents of the Versailles treaty were “league liars,” | as they were “contemptible quitters” in the intem- perate language of Mr. Wilson, whose uncontrol- able fits of rage worked his destruction, If this was F. D. Roosevelt's idea of a “clean campaign,” what horrible metamorphosis had party association worked in him? What filth could his party have possibly handled to earn his disapproval? And the aftermath blasts from the Democratic party are quite as fetid. The editorial appearing in the New York World on the morning following election displayed the spirit of Lucifer cast out of aven. truest sport in the Democratic ranks, if we are to judge from after-election language, was | James W. Gerard of the Democratic nationale com- mittee, whose tribute to Harding was like a flower blooming in a fen. The campaign waged by the Democratic party was a disgrace to American politics. It showed, as nothing else could, the composite mentality of the proponents of internationalism, parlor-bolshe- vism and that sickening sycophancy which grows out of worship of a king. Its sharpest condemna- tion was to be found in the poise and dignity main- tained by Harding and Coolidge, a condemnation which the people overwhelmingly indorsed. Never has hypocrisy received such a rebuke. The Demo- cratic party has four years in which to purge itself, and it is to be hoped its putrescence has not reached the tertiary stage. Meanwhile it is in order to swap the Democratic donkey for a polecat. There’s only one thing more pathetic than a boy with curls and that is a boy who will wear "em with- out registering objections.—-Knoxville Journal and Tribune. TAKES TO RHYME. Senator Hiram Johnson has added rhyming to his many other. accomplishments. Here is one he recently pulled. It may not be his first offense, but it sounds like it: “Because Wilson kept us out of war, He kept us out of shoes, He kept us out of clothing, He kept us out of booze. He kept us out-of sugar, He kept us: out of beer, And made America safe For rent-hog and profiteer.”’ Suggestions for Christmas Gifts Making Round of Casper Stores Don’t do your Christmes sh And some of the very nicest Christmas, suggestions.
