The author-j {ties have not touched upon the matter with a sufficiently heavy hand. It should have been in the form of an order and not a request. The school teacher is still regarded as an example for pattern by the scholars, not only for those under her immediate charge but for those of other schools. i The problem created by the dancing craze is a difficult one for both teachers and parents. The argument, advanced by the pupils, that wherever it is proper for teachers to go it is also proper for pupils, does not hold good, be- cause of the difference in age and experience and training between them, but it is powerful enough to be effective in many cases, It serves to place a greater responsibility upon the teach- er and a more careful example in the character of dances and dancing places she selects. The teachers’ example not only holds good for five days in the week while school is in session, but it contnues over the week end adjournment. Parents have more and more come to “depend upon the teacher and have more and more shirk- ed their own duty toward their own children. In a very high percentage of cases the teacher has greater influence over the children than the parents. . Then since this is the situation, the teacher must continue, as of old, to set the example de- manded by the profession. . It should be no great hardship for teachers to forego public dances. We believe but very few attend them anyway. There is one thing very cer- tain, demonstrated frequently enough to be con- yincing, the public dance is no place for school children, and as long as teachers attend them, the pupils will believe it proper enough for them- selves. Hard to Please Our old friend Hiram Johnson is vexed at the president, for requesting the resignation of Harry Daugherty as attorney general. Hiram would have been every whit as peeved if the pres- ident had omitted to call for Mr. Daugherty’s resignation. The whole truth is, Hiram is a very difficult person to please these days. Hiram’s present temper has come to signify you'll be dam- ned if you do and you'll be damned if you do not, unless you are a supporter of Hiram for presi- dent. In that évent nothing matters. The manner in which the people of the na- tion are rallying to Mr. Cooledge’s standard and their confidence in him as shown by the primar- ies held in the various states, is likely the cause of much if Hiram’s peevishness, There is no use in pouting because the nation refers some one else for chief executive. If Friram will study his own record and his at- titude upon the many things in which the pub- lic is interested, he may be able to discover the reason for the attitude the people have assumed toward his candidacy. Bourquin's Attitude Not long ago Senator Wheeler, of Montana issued a statement in which he quoted former Federal Judge Bourquin as a character witness in his behalf. It was brought out in the hear- ings of the Montana state council of defense that Judge Bourqin was sympathetic with Mr. Wheel- er’s attitude and viewpoint toward the fomen- ters of trouble in Montana at that time. It was also brought out that the department of justice at Washington had stated that it was difficult to obtain any co-operation in Montana from the federal judge and from the federal district at- torney, because th were out of sympathy with the federal laws governing sedition. Judge Bour- quin was a supporter of Wheeler for senator when he made his statement and Bourquin’s son was on the tic ticket for prosecutor along with Wh where he had been placed by Wheeler’s organization. The American Civil Liberties union plays the part of a cuttlefish when it injects the Ana- conda Copper company into the situation to make it appear that that corporation is back of an attack on Senator Wh r. The insinua- tion of the American Civil Liberties union in this respect is as false as the statement that Frank Little was not guilty of sedition. Everybody in Montana knows that Burton K. Wheeler was elected to the United States senate with the support of the Anaconda Copper com pany’s interests. It is a matter of common infor mation in Montana that during the last week or ten days of the 1922 campaign the Anaconds Copper company swung into line back of Mr. Wheeler and their political repr itatives throughout the st helped to put him over, At the same time it elected a Democratic ture favorable to its interests, as known n and shown later by the record of this legislature The Unfortunate Comparison Former Attorney General Daugherty, whose Dusiness in political life henceforth is to remain dead, 0 | public. Nothing could more certainly damn it in enough to call public attention to himself, in a criticism of Senator Porras jpeech to Maine Republicans, and in so doing he could hardly jaar hit upon a more unfortunate or inappro- priate phrase than that in which he attempted to’compare Senator Pepper with the “Burchard” of “Rum, Romanism and Rebellion” notoriety in the closing days of the Blaine campaign of 1884. For if the Republican x aif was ever in- flicted with a “Burchard” who did it more in- jury, that cost it more in the estimation of decent people, than Mr. Daugherty himself, the pages of political history of this country do not record his name. . The American people. have not yet canonized President Harding. They respect his good qual- ities, but they have not erected him upon a ped- estal and decreed him incapable of mistake or errors of judgment. All that Senator Pepper did was to tell the truth about the painful mistake President Harding made in putting Daugherty in the department of justice and in keeping him there when his unfitness had been demonstrated to the nation. Nor was Senator Pepper guilty. of a mistake in political strategy in frankly facing the truth and in refusing to evade a situation patent to all men and women of intelligence and with open minds, The Republican party thas every- thing to gain and nothing to lose by admitting the mistakes of its leaders, and by thus proving its sincerity win and hold the confidence of the popular estimation than to pretend that all was well, that it had no’steps to retrace, no mistakes to rectify, no duty to realign its position and reform its front. The “Burchard” today isnot the politician who is willing to tell the: truth, even when it hurts, but the discredited reactionary who im- agines that bluster and personal abuse can serve to cover crookedness, chicanery and breach of public trust. Bryan Felicitates Vanderlip William J. Bryan has taken his pen in hand and writtey a letter of congratulation to Frank Vanderlip. In the days when Vanderlip was de- nouncing Bryan as an economic lunatic and pre- siding over a big bank in the purlieus of Wall street he was to Colonel Bryan an undesirable citizen. Now that he has acquired a national reputation as a defamer of the late President Harding and has organized a corps of hawk- shaws to peep through keyholes and over tran- soms in Washington in an effort to “get some- thing on” some Republican he begins to be in Mr. Bryan’s view a sublimated patriot. What- ever else may be said of Mr. Bryan, it must be admitted that he is in a class of his own as a hard boiled bigot. A Tragedy A paragraph in the news of several days since reflects a real tragedy as well as an epigram. The item reads: “We want to get your features.” esid a news- paper photographer today when he asked Secre- tary of the Terasury Mellon, who had just ar- rived here from Washington, to pose “They-ve changed that down in Washington now,” replied Mr. Mellon. “They used to tnke our faces. Now they take our finger prints.” How many men of intelligence in the United States will wish to hold office under present conditions? It is true, as Mr. Mellon says, that instead of taking photographs nowadays they want finger prints, but the public realizes that it is not so much those who are finger printed as those who attempt to take the finger prints who should be under the suspicion of the people. Awaiting the Answer Addressing the Union League club at San Francisco Archbishop Hanna pleaded for a re- turn to the political ideals of the founders of the republic and the principles of the consti- tution. And those principles are a strong nat- ional government for national purposes and loy- alty to it, with the largest possible liberty to the states and their subdivisions in ordering their local affairs and to the individual the largest measure of personal liberty consistent with the preservation of an orderly society, in which person and property are safe. “Are there not among us,” asks the Archbishop, “strong men and growing boys who will come into the fore- H front and lead us back to the ideals of, our fath- ers?” Paradoxical But True It seems paradoxical, but it is a fact ‘that under an adequate tariff law American industry will thrive and assimilate a volume of compet- ing imports that under a low tariff law would paralyze all American enterprize. The explanation is that millions of American workers employed by home industries are im- bued with the un-American belief that imported goods are superior to home made. The Ameri- can productive tariff gives them the means (wages) which they spend not for American but for imported products. So the problem is solved, the largest pnd most profitable import trade is developed by the undiminished volume of creative industry in the United States. What the foes of the protective policy desig- nate as “a competitive tariff” is an absolute dis- crimination against American ‘production in favor of foreign producers, One thing is certain, if all the people in favor of the largest feasible American’ produc- tion voted for “protection,” it would be the un- animous choice of the country. The indisputable partnership existing: be- tween capital and labor subdues the forests, tills the soil, moves the crops, builds, manages and runs the railroads, navigates our inland and coastwise shipping, builds shops, factories, fur- naces, forges, rolling mills and fills them with active willing ygorkers. “They manage the mill and the mint They hammer the ore, They turn the wheel And the news you read they print.” All working in unison constitute the opulent home market of the United States. It is the clear duty of the Republican party to keep it intact. | Benjamin Franklin said that “If you want | your work well done, go; if not, send.” That rule applies absolutely to the great task of the American citizen—voting. If you want the votes cast right at the polls, go; if not, send some jone else. The principal charge made against the Repub- lican administration is that it has not been duly vigilant in prosecuting the frauds that erie not refrain from rising up long grew out of the Democratic administration, 3 ‘@hbe Casvet Daily Cribune have still much to do in the develop- _ Foreign Trade by Grand Divisions ment of this trade.
