Davis, candidate of the Democratic party for the presidency, has gone to the wilds of Maine, where he not only will get a good rest “before plunging into the campaign, but where he believes he can also get a better’ perspective on @ho situagion which confronts him. He may re main in seclusion for two weeks or more, for now that the notification ceremonies at Clarksburg have been fixed for August 11, there will be no need for him to hurry back to town. | The Democrats feel they have made a rather shrewd move in hav- ing their notification just thrée days before the Republican ceremony at Washington, At first, it was propos- ed the Democratic function should be held about August 1. Then came the announcement of the Republi. can date and the Democrats decided to delay their ceremony according- ly, It has been announced that Presi- dent Coolidge would reply to the Democratic “keynote” to be uttered by Mr. Dayls. If the Democrats had adhered to their first plans, the president would have had a full fertnight to consider and frame his reply. As matters stand now, he will either haye to defer the preparation of his speech unti! three days before its delivery, or elwe go ahead without any reference to the position to be taken by the Democrati¢e. candidate. Most of those who know Mr. Coo idge well believe he wil! choose the latter course, so the two leading op- ponents in the campaign are ex- pected to be at work simultaneously upon thelr addresses of acceptance. Both address likely to be pitched upon a high plane. “There will be no personalities tn the com- ing fight, so far as the principal figures are concerned. Mr. Coolidge ig not that type of man. Neithéy is the Democratic standard bearer. The personality of each man is, ex- Pected to have a distinct bearing upon the result, but there is a vast difference, between personality’ ‘and personalities, The speeches of acceptance will be amplifications of the party plat- forms. Mr. Coolidge's views are well known. Therefore the greater pu®- le interest will center%in the Davis address for the public !s looking to him for a clear-cut expression | of just where he stands on many public issues. President Coolidge will have a number of difficult obstacles to skirt in his address, just as the Re- are land had to step rather lively in turning some of the sharp corners. Mr. Coolidge will have the same dif- ficulties that the platform makers had in dealing with the record of the last congress; the leaders of which dia so much to thwart the executive program. The general impression seems to be that Mr. Coolfdge will appeal to the country to give him a congréss with which he can work. It is pos- sible, of course, for the Republicans. to get a working majority in the house, for all the members of that body must come up for re-election in November. But the case of the senate seemf& hopeless. It will take years to get some of the recaicitrants out of that body, if ever it is rid of them. Just here, Mr. Davis is expected to make a most telling attack upon the Republican record. He will at- tempt to. show that President Cool- idge was either unable or unwilling to force his will on \eongress and that legislation was possible only through Democratic and progressive channels. He will a: that if the Democrats are given control of con- gress as well as thé presidency, the country may look for cohesion at Washington and a general spirit of pulling together for the welfare of the country. 4 Already the preliminary Derno- cratic “keynotes” have indicated thissline of attack and will be a difficult one for the Republicans to meet. Of course, Mr. Davis will dwell upon the alleged corruption “in high place” at Washington, but the oil scandals and other revelations! at the capital will not cut the figure in the campaign that’ was originally supposed, 3 Meantime, Messrs. Davis and Cool- idge have been getting the usual “good-news” handed out by aspiring politicians to the party standard bearers. Candidates always hawe to put up with this sort of thing, Mr. Davis has been told that the Demo crats will carry Pennsylvania and Mr. Coolidge -has been advised the Republicans are ike’ to carry the solid south. Both Mr, Davis and Mr, Coolidge are “assured” of. Indiani both will get Miinoia and both will et Ohio, . Mr. Coolidge grimly begys all of the “good news.” Mr, Davis smiles engagingly at the talk of the proph- ets and the sons of prophets. Thé open season for political’ prognos' cation is on.
