The amusing thing in this connection is that conditions may develor in the New York convention that would bring about this very thing. It is very evident that no active candidate for the nomination will be able to command any- thing like the two-thirds vote essential to a nom- ination. The delegates are seldom able to unite upon a nominee who has been involved in the bitternesses of a convention battle, When it comes to casting about who is there so well known as good old Colonel Bryan? If the drys are able to control the convention the McAdoo supporters would be expected to flock to Bryan at the first br Brother Bryan is only sixty- four yeara old and is still eating three very hearty meals each day. He has suggested a couple of presidential possibilities, but they have been so remote ag merely to draw atten- tion to himself. Outside of the Tammany crowd | he is still in good standing with the rank and file of the party and as a seasoned runner he may receive considerable attention before the year is over. The Rules of Evidence In the course of a vigorous defense of the Re- publican party from Democratic assaults Secre- tary Hughes reminded his New York audience that “guilt is personal and corruption knows no party.” He called attention to the fact that the interests of the government are in the courts, and that eminent counsel, appointed from both political parties, were there to see that full jus- tice is done and that no guilty individual es- capes. q he secretary deprecated the idea that the people were being misled by what has taken place in Washington. Throughout the country | they re in close touch with court proceedings and are following with interest what takes place in countless juryrooms. “Our people,” Mr. Hughes declared, “are dealing directly with the credibility of witnesses, with the exhibition of the bearers, and the, evidence and hea ious r rts, betwe sustained ch In expressing his confidence in of the people, the secretary put appraisal on the general intel citizens than has been conceded -ratie senators in charge of the senate investi- gations. The latter have acted on the belief that the majority of the voters would accept without know the difference between ay, between proof and malic- nm scurrilous innuendoes and the good sense a far higher mea of our question the unsupported and unexamined state- | ments of convicted criminals in and out of pris and of others whom the department of jus- tice is endeavoring to put behind the bars. Even without cross examination, the animus behind much of the testimony has been so apparent that it has been discredited from the moment it was uttered. Every man’and woman able to cast un intelligent vote has a knowledge of the ordi nary rules of evidence and is capable of apply ing them to the senate committee testimony. The result will not be a tribute to Democratic polit- ical sagacity. Revising Tariff Strategy In 1910 the Democrats went after the urban vote by charging that the tariff rates in the I Aldrich law were responsible for the high of living. They captured the lower house of the sixty-second congress and immediately be- gan to frame what was known as the “pop gun” bills aimed to reduce the duties on various com- | modities, but President Taft vetoed them as} they came to him. It was well known that they cam- gain framed ine for the were p political effect. In the high cost of living was ¢ n of the chief issue, The split in the Republican party, however, h more to do with the defeat of Mr. Taft than did the tariff. The protective vote was | much larger than the Democratic yote, but it was divided between two candidates, When the Democrats assumed full eontrol of ill branches of the government they framed a tariff law which, with the exception of a num- ber of favored farm products raised in the placed those products on the free list. Sugar was cheduled for the free list the May following, but the Democrats got cold feet on that pro. posal before it took effect and the proviso was dropped The Democrats are now planning to reverse their political strategy and to introduce a num f bills placing manufactured goods such as ton 7 Mluct on the free litt, or ma te reducing the rates on “everything the ns pract thing the manufacturer has ell, a political gesture, planned for the eally ever r to Thi purpose of securing the farmer vote in the com- | ing elections, and the Democrats hope to receive the nid of the radicals in putting it up to Presi dent The stage is being set for thi Aleanwhile, certain urban representatives, not Ooolidge. now tion, ion desir- | grudges and personal animosities of tale-| by the Demo- | Che Casper Sunday Cribune We Do Not Need a Laureate We do not need a Laureate To sound Wyoming's fame. ‘We do not need a Poet With a handle to his name.

It will be seen by the following quotations that Democratic editors join with Republican editors in the approval of the president. President Coolldge’s letter to the senate shows the courage of com- mon sense and an appreciation of the fitness of things. It is a digni- fied protest against the persecution of an able and trusted member of the Administration under the guise of constructive legislative investiga- tion.—New York Sun. President Coolidge is unqualifiedly right in his protest against the pro- posed action of the senate invest!- gating committee when it under- takes to usurp the function of the executive and. to unlawfully inter- fere with the orderly functioning of one of the most important’ de- partments of goverment—Chatta- nooga Times (Dem:) Congres# bas the ‘right to inves: tigate government departments whenever it chooses to do so, But when it so choses it must show playsible grounds for the undertak- ing. It has not shown plausible grounds in the case of Mr. Mellon. —Brooklyn Eagle.

The President’s message is far more than a defense of his authority agdinst invasion by a coordinate branch of the government. It champions the rights of the citizen against invasion by arbitrary, un- constitutional act Portland Ore- gonian. ‘The President has done the right thing in taking the bit in his teeth. ‘The pursuit of Mr. Mellon probably is wrong. The President will have universal support in his shaw of anger against such unwarranted procedure.—Richmond Times Dis- patch (Dem.)
