Cobb an- nounces himself for public office. It means that the younger generation is awakening to the necessity of taking a hand in a game that the older and supposedly ‘wiser generation has so frequently “balled up, and which needs an occasional bath of decency. : Mr. Cobb is the type of man who enters public life from no selfish motives. He has ideals, and ability gnd persistence and patience to work them out. The Republican party is the fit vehicle through which to express these ideals for the public good; and the party welcomes Mr. Cobb to the forefront just as it ‘will all upstanding young men of his kind who bring ‘with their an:ditions the equipment of high character unsullied reputation and the desire to serve the pub- lie good. There could de no more hopefal event occur than that all the public offices of Natrona county be filled with bright, active and sincers young men of the Cobb type. We Stand by Our Own ENATOR KING, of Utah, has unearthed the obso~ lete and long forgotten language of tariff discus- sion dating back to the nineties. It has been a long, Jong time such terms as “robber baron” and “Wall| Strect Pirate” have been employed by _Democratic statesmen, yet Mr. King has robbed the political fraye- yard and dragged them forth. In a few parliamen- tary remarks on the tariff bill before the senate Mr.| King said this: “The question here is stmply this: Shall we let the ‘barons and ihe robbers and the trusts and the cor- porations have unrestricted power to continue exploit- ing and robbing, as many of them did during the war, ‘and to increase their power for exploiting the Amer- ican people.” B In Pai same address, in support of some of his views, the senator took occasion to quote two eminent writers in Europe. As he gets his quotations. so he gets his tariff doetrines—from across the Atlantic. Europe, although going upon a protective tariff basis itself, wants the United States to abandon its tradi- tinal policy in favor of protection. Senator King is in full unison with European propagandists who are endeavoring to influence American tariff legislation. At the same time that he inveighs against the “barons” and “robbers” and “trusts” of the United States he has nothing whatever to say against the barons and trusts and robbers of Europe who would flood the American market with products, close Amer-| jean mills and throw American workmen out of e1s- ployment. It has been repeatedly shown by facts which cannot be questioned that European and Asiatic producers are able to supply the American market with various commodities at a price with which the American manufacturer cannot compete while paying ‘American wages for American hours of labor. Not- withstanding this repeated demonstration, King and his associates on the Democratic side of the senate are willing that the large manufacturers of| Europe shall capture the American market and that American prosperity built up under cither the protect-| ing influence of a Republican tariff or the prohibitive conditions incident to war, shall be sacrificed. The only “robber baron” Senator King condemns {s the American producer. The importer “robber baron” occupies a place of tender soticitude in the hearts of Democratic senators and congressmen. The so-cailed “robber baron” who operates an American factory giving employment to American labor and American capital is the recipient of Democratic in- vective. In November the people of the United States will have an opportunity to express a choice between the American who produces goods in the United States and the American who imports goods produced in Exrope or Asia. The Democrats are standing by the importers. The Republicans are standing by the American producers. 0 Kidding Themselves HAT MORE convincing evidence can be brought against a person than his own words. telling ancument aga its own printed s the New York Ti st a newspaper's sophistry than ments. For instance there is the foremost exponent and nes, acknowledged megaphone of Democratic views and| sentiment. The Times rially that the Democr: prosperity to win the makes the statement edito- s count on the lagging of ext house of representatives. As an exponent of the y of opportunity, fatten- ing upon calamity, the Ti runs true to form. It may be as sincere in its present statement az it is in its adoration of Thomas Jefferson but turning to its daily news columns its edito position becomes ridic- ulous, for prosperity is ‘not lagging according to its own headlines. In the same issue these are noted: “Basic industries expanded in April,” “Gray Goods Fairly Active,” “Stocks Generally Higher,” “Bonds Continne Strong,” “Sharp Advance in the Special- ties,” “St. Paul Reports Net Revenue Gain,” “Spirited Advance in Cotton Prices,” “Demand for Wheat Brisk to the Close.” “American Light and Power Shows Marked Gain in Earnings,” “Activity in Iron, Steel, Lumber and Building,” “Gain in Motor Car Trade Of course these are heardlines only. In the body ef the articles over which the heads are placed we Senator | What more| and the average market price of bonds advance more than 25 per cent in the same time; they have seen unemployment creatly reduced; they have seen idle | lumber mills start operation; they have seen building permits of about $60,00,0000 in January, 1921, jump to $140,000,000 in January. 1922; they have seen time loan rates on money drop from 6 and 7 per cent 7.80, in 1921 to 4% per cent in 1922; they have seen bank) clearings in nine central reserve cities increase 26 “| Per cent as compared with the corresponding week a| 5 | year ago—they have seen all these improvements in/ conditions attested by the financial and commercial columns of the New York Times and many other newspapers of like Democratic convictions, and yet they all hope to win an election by an alleged lagging of prosperity. They are kidding themselves, both as to delayed yrospe and as to winning the election. If there was to be a contest in pessimism held, the Democratic campaign managers and their party news- papers would easily take al! the prizes. Political Revolution I press whose policy most nearly conforms to what a Republican journal ought to be and whose preach- Mmenis most nearly meet the ideals for which Repub- |licans generally stand is the Boston Transcript. Its | view of recen) political happenings is therefore worthy |of perusal. peaking particularly of the revolution in Pennsylvania it says: “Gifford Pinchot’s nomination for governor of | Pennsylvania by the Republicans of that state is a | political revolution, the like of which has not been seen since Hiram W. Johnson liberated his own state of California from the grip of the Southern Pacific oligarchy. Mr. Alter was the “organization” candi- date—that is to say, he had the support of the mighty | machine inherited by Boise Penrose from Matt Quay. | Mr. Pinchot had only his own record of public service reinforced by personal character and great conviction. Instead of resorting to empty generalities Mr. Pinchot contented himself with specifications concerning the extravagonce and the political crookedness with which |the Republicans have operated the G. O. P. machine} in Pennsylvania at the public expense. |state affairs. And he will be the next governor of Pennsylvania because throughout the campaign for the nomination he employed “plain speech with plain folk, plain words for false things.” “Constructive insurgency has carried the day in Pennsylvania as it carried the day in Indiana. will not only send Mr. Beveridge to the senate in place of Senator New. and Mr. Pinchot to Harrisburg | as the successor of Governor Sproul, it will also send | to the senate as the logical successor of the late Phil- ander Chase Knox, George Wharton Pepper whom Governor Sproul had the prescience to appoint and whom the Republicans of Pennsylvania have had the food sense to nominate. “There is nothing disheartening to the wise among the well-wishers of the Republican party in the returns from Indiana or from Pennsylvania. Mr. | Beveridge and Mr. Pinchot have found by experience that the Republican party is a better instrument of |¥augressive government than a third party could ever | be. They have succeeded as Republicans in 1922 | because they have profited by the lesson taught them | by their experience in 1912. Mr, Pepper is more con-| servative perhaps than Mr. Pinchot and he had the support of the organization because he was the gov- ernor’s appointee. But the rank and file of Penn- sylvania Republicans responded to the leadership of fearless honesty offered them in the candidacies of both Mr. Pinchot and Mr. Pepper, as did the rank the candidacy of a constructive insurgent to that o: a devoted regular. “Incidentally the Pennsylvania revolution indicates that “scrapping” political machines is a better vote- getting issue in 1922 than “scrapping” modern zaen of war. Aiso that, however success‘ul the conference |of Washington may have been, it wil not serve in f jcomings of the party in power. Rooseveltian sort teday. kind of leadership the rank and file of the electorate can and frequently do find it for themselves.” Leadership of the is the great need of the nation The Jewel of Consistency ATO PHASE of American foreign policy in the past year has been clearer than that relating to Europe in general and to Russia in particular. It has been stated upon numerous occasions by the president and by Mr. Seerctary Hughes, until every reading citizen |in the land ‘s familiar with our position. We would have stultified ourselves by accepting the invitation of the allied governments to attend The Hague con- been rresent at Genoa. | The present administration had been in control of} | the government a little more than a month when the | state department declared its position toward Russia. It was plainly stated that the United States could |have no official intercourse with the Russians until | productivity had been made secure in that country, thereby establishing suitable bases of credit. ‘has been no deviation from that policy and that is | where the United States stands today. When the Genoa conference was called it became | epparent that the Russian | amount subject of discuss’ in other words that the | conference would be political rather than economic. | The United States declined to participate in those de- | liberations for that reason. The soundness of that | position was strikingly emphasized when it was dis- closed at the conference that a secret treaty had been made between Germany and Russia tending to set at naugh any efforts the allies might make for a gen- eral understanding in Europe. The willingness of this country to contribute to the economic welfare of Europe has been demonstrated on occasions too num- erous to mention, but it is no true American who would wish to see his country involved in political bickerings such as featured the Genoa meeting. With their year old policy toward Russia and the revelations of the Genoa conference before them, the president and the secretary did not hesitate in framing their reply to the allied invitation to The Hague meeting. It was an unequivocal “No” coupled with a reiteration of the American attitude toward | Russia. It is true that the United States indicated a | willingness to join the allied governments ‘in arrang- ing for an inquiry by experts into the economic sit- uation in Russia and the necessary remedies.’ But of course participation in such an inquiry is totally different from representation in The Hague parleys. The one would be merely to assemble facts, while the other will be an attempt to act upon such information as may be at hand.

The so-called “selfish” American has moved the whole world a great stride forward toward the ultimate goal toward which men have long been striving— interpational cooperation and good- will.

The ideal of American independence in Professor Blayney's view, is in no way under-valued when the national virtue of humanitarianism is exalted.
