Reports received from all sections of the country since the Cleve- land convention show the most enthusiastic re- ception of the nomination of the two illustrious citizens. The primaries and the convention were convincing evidence of the public approval of President Coolidge. The instant nation-wide sat- isfaction expressed at the selection of General Dawes, and his entire suitability as the vice presidential candidate, has given an additional} , Standing to the ticket and an impetus to the cam- paign that has even surprised seasoned political observers Confidence in your leaders is one of the great- est items of strength in a contest of any kind. It is everything in a political campaign. We know of no dissatisfaction in the Republica ranks because of the selections of the convent They are regarded as perfect and because of this they will attract many votes from true patriots in other parties. bd Complying With the Request Senator Pat Harrison, of Mississippi, the key- noter of the New York convention, desires a Paul Revere to call America’ back to duty and high re- solve. For the keynoter’s information we call his attention to the proceedings of a certain. Re- publican convention held at Cleveland, Ohio, dune 10 to 12 inclusive, but more particularly to the proceedings of the 12th, upon which day the delegates assembled, anticipating Senator Harrison’s request did all that was humanly pos- sible to grant it, by nominating General Charles G. Dawes for vice president on the Republican national ticket along with Calvin Coolidge, Gen- eral Dawes being a lineal descendant of William Dawes, otherwise known as “The Patriot” the companion of Paul Revere on his famous ride. If Senator Harison is not satisfied with what we have done to gratify his wishes in the mat- ter, of recalling America to duty and high re- solve, we can point to a hundred specific in- stances in the recent careers of our candidates for president and vice president that will satisfy any reasonable mind on the point in question. In fact the people have long since ceased to ex- t duty and high resolve from either Senator peerea or his party associates. They look for it from the Republican party and the men it selects to do these things. It explains why Mr. Coolidge occupies the White House at present, and it will explain his continued tenancy. It will explain why General Dawes will preside oyer the United States senate after the early part of next March and bring that body back to duty and high resolve, Senator Harrison. included. Democracy Cutting Up investment is made. It isialso ‘because those Americans ‘who keep their capital at home and use it in building up Ameri industry and in employing American workmen haye the prior claim. a The-tariff act of 1922 provides that if foreign nations indulge in unfair discriminations or use any unfair methods whereby the goods or trade of Americans in such nations ‘ate injured, then retaliatory measures against the offenders may be adopted by this government ‘ It has been shown that, certain South Ameri-« can countries have discriminated against the commerce of the United States, but the claim has been advanced that to ‘enforce the retal- iation provided for by law would injure the business of Americans who have made inyest- ments there. One of the interests in which it is claimed that ‘Americans have made such invest- ments is coffee. We begin to see a light. We have been won- dering why the valorization of coffee has been undertaken and why, under it, the price of cof- fee has so materially advanced. It is all due-to American capital invested in the coffee trade. Ameridan capitalists have organized South Amer- ican trusts to control the prices of products ship ped to this country. Forbidden by law to main- #8/tain trusts in the United States. they find in South America a fertile field for the operation of “combinations in restraint of trade,” and they are averse to having the government of the Unit- ed States retaliate. It matters not that articles 75|the growth or production of Americans: operat- ing in the United States may be injured by un- just discriminations by South American inter- ests—partly operated by capital expatriated from this country—nor that the people of the United States one and all must pay tribute to these combinations, whether practiced in the form of “valorization” or otherwise, such expat- riated capital must be coddled and cared for. It must prosper whether the capital of Americans who have kept it at home to build up domesi'c industries and employ domestic workmen is safe- guarded or not. Investments in“South America, or any other foreign countries, presuppose the possession of immense capital. On the contrary,’ there are con- cerns whose capital is comparatively small, who are engaged in the export trade. If we are fair and just, the-concerns with small capital should be considered first of all. Those of large capital are able to take care of themselves. Anyway, capital kept at home is of more importance to this country than is ex- patriated capital and should receive first con- sideration. Wrecking an Industry | The free traders im congress ably aided and abetted by tlie ‘so-called progressives or radi- cals, who pose as Republicans but vote as Demo- rats, recently passed a resolution disqualify- |ing commissioners from acting in stich cases as involve industries in which they may be nearly or remotely interested by reason of ties of mar. riage or former business affiliations. In other words, if a tariff commissioner has by reason of his business experience betome an expert in a rtain line and made thereby an ideal commis- sioner to develop the facts, concerning the indus: try under inquiry, he is thereby disqualified from being of use to the government. Evidently it is desired that only. incompetents*shall act on ques- tions of importance. The resolution in question disqualifies Com- missioner Glassie from -acting in the sugar in: vestigation and report, because his wife owns a small amount of stock in a’ domestic.sugar com pany. Of course, every one knows that Mr. Glassie is square and honestfand that the fact of such ownership would not influence him tu violate his oath -of. office..But that is not the trouble. By throwing out Mr. (Glassie, who is a protectionist, though a Democrat, the free-trad- ers will be in control of the tariff commission in the sugar case and those free-traders purpose recommending that the duty on sugar be low- ered, so it is said. That is why the resolution was passed. The New York Journal of Commerce, which is certainly anything but. a protectionist. paper re- ports that the sugar beet growers of California stand to lose from $4,000,000 to $5,000,000 on |this season's crop: if the predicted program of the free trade tariff commission shall be carried into effect. According’ to the Journal's eport 120,000 acres of California land was planted to sugar beets this year. The predicted action of the tariff commission is simply in harmony with the free-trade policies of the Democratic party.

From present appearances the convention will more than last the week out. But if the favorite sons all get into the running today and no pro longed d ek ensues, Saturday will in all prob ability see the close. The news accounts indi cate that Democracy is having some time.
