SUBSCRIPTION RATES The Size of Walsh By Carrier and Outside State I on Counsel for Edward L. Doheny says: “During the time the grand jury was in session in Wash- ington Senator Walsh, the disappointed and dis- gruntled persecutor in the oil investigation, went to a local radio station and broadcasted a bit- ter attack on Mr. Doheny, Mr. Sinclair and Mr. Fall and literally pit on the air in the homes of the grand jurors statements which he knew could not legally be given in evidence in the grand jury room. We had no way to meet that conduct of a United States senator, but if any lawyer in pri e practice had been guilty of it he would have deserved disbarment.” This is no surprise to anyone familiar with the low-born instincts of Walsh. He is known throughout his home state as a pettifogger and shyster practitioner of the law. He has never been known to have a lofty idea, while his no- tions of justice, fairness and right are so warp- ed by cheap cunning and vindictiveness as to make him despised by all fair-minded citizens. . Old Stuff The Richmond-Times-Dispatch speaking of its party convention now spending the summer at New York says of the league of hations plank in the platform: “In the matter of the league of nations the party has acted wisely.

Have No Cheers Coming We doubt the propriety of the cheers in the Democratic national convention when the an- nouncement was made that a grand jury in the District of Columbia supreme court had in- dicted Albert B. Fall, Harry F. Sinclair Edward L. Doheny and Edward L, Doheny, Jr., for crim- inal connection with the leasing of the naval oil reserves, when at the same moment William G. McAdoo was the leading candidate before the convention for nomination for president who upon sworn testimony before a senate commit- tee presided over by the chairman of the con- vention showed Mr. McAdoo as guilty of wrong as any of the gentlemen indicted. Then another reason for suppressing exulta- tion would be the editoral utterance of Demo- eracy’s leading national organ, the New York man, with or without an army of assistants. + yay W) r : ‘ knowledge of God and of the way which leads An audience is presumed to be a group of hear- ers, but a national convention does mint fit the pace we ROS HOSEA) Rorexegenh sy HUE definition To hear there must be some sort of | *!!*iT#- quiet.
