There is not a bright note in it. | To “view with alarm” would be quite in accord With traditional party platforms; to be opposed to! every policy and proposal presented or suggested by the Republican party is also appropriate and iu conformity to Democratic good taste in such matters. But to draw such a sombre picture of the) situation of our beloved republic and to paint con-} ditions in such dark and forbidding colors, when we ure just emerging from the slough of despond into which we were plunged by the waste, extray-| Agance and inefficiency of the late administration] Of the party that is hanging all this crape, comes a Dit late. The Democratic party should have come to the front h this woeful tale several years) previous to March 1921. The opportunity was; much better. It possible that the Democratic platform! writers of Wyoming are unaware that the present national administration has had the struggle of its existence for a year and a half to bring ‘the! expenses of the common country within its pos- sible income; that to clean up the debts and gov- ernmental wreck occasioned by Democratic’. con- tro] has required months of patient toil and careful Management to get the ship off the rocks and back imto the channel; that to restore economic order after the Democratic debauch is not the task of weeks but of months and years; that to regain American prestige in the world after a period of sneers and insults by peoples great and small, cannot be done by a wave of the hand; that the perpetrators of all this grief, the results of which are complained of, the Democratic party, has con-| tirbuted neither whit nor iota to alleviate; but that the members of that party in congress and out, in conventions d out, by means of platforms and other publicity, have gone on steadily and hypo- eritically lamenting results without fixing respon- sibility for caus Four flushing is not only Democratic habit, it is Democratic nature. Hypocricy is not’ simply a Democratic characteristic it is a tenet of that faith. As witness, “He kept us out of war.” The Democratic party is the official sob squad.} Gi is always whining over spilled milk, but never fleaning up the muss or offering to get a new supply. If the Democratic party would advance @ new and contsructive idea it would have a per. inanent headache. Let the Wyoming Democratic platform writers hresent their doleful message. The people of the!

It refiects the distance covered on the road ‘to normale, observes the Minneapolis Journal. “A parrot escapes from its cage and whole neigh- borhoods take interest in its capture. Theatrical stars get into a tiff, and the puublic absorbedly watches the encounter. A rowing champion returns home, and business stops while the town applauds him, A prize fight draws-the front page in the eastern dalies, while golf tournaments throughout the country reflect an atendance and interest hith- erto unknown. “Four years ago such events could have happen- ed without the public flicking an eyelash or giving them even a second thought. Its mind then was turned toward the Argonne. It had one and only one common thought and feeling. The public then was all purpose, all busuiness on a gigantic scale. It was grim, it was serious, and it had no time for anything that was not grim and serious. Since then’we have come a longer distance than now in a normal way. Things are not all business. most of us realize. Human nature asserts itself Natural affection for bird and animal life finds play when a pet bird escapes. Our minds are not so absorbed with the business on hand that our love of gossip cannot enjoy a theatrical tiff. Our unborn love for the outdoors and sports now makes itself felt in the welcome to a champion athlete in the battles on the links. “The news reflects much more than our mental condition. It reveals likewise the prosperity al- ready ours. The public is acting on its normal in- stincts, because the pressure from the outside is not. such as to destroy its equilibrium. Each the coal and rail strikes, which directly affect the public, get only lukewarm interest. “Certainly, today’s ne would , indicate that America is herself again, with the people already at play and expressing themselves on things that wean The Next Congressman SQ UESOEIING the Hon.
