However his organized following have the Republican Party of their tion disclosed is by show that a concentration of pose Paul domination on a islative candidates would have defeated date for Senator and perhaps didates for Representative. Tt that he has lost one Representative as it is. The returns show further that the Paul or- ganization was much more successful in getting out its vote than were the regular Republicans. Such Indian precincts as have reported came much nearer polling a full voting strength than was the case in Juneau and other places where the machine was in minority It is fair to assume, therefore, that the Paul vote was nearer polled in full in Juneau and Ketchikan than was the vote of the regulars. JThe situation in November will be different to that which obtained at the primary election. At that time there will be just two tickets in the field, instead of three candidates for Senator and nine for Representatives. There should at that time be 500 or 600 more votes cast in Juneau than were polled Tuesday and a similar situation at Ketchikan. The people of the First Division will have an opportunity next November to free themselves from the denomination of a professonal politician with a thoroughly organized bloc of voters who obey his every command. The situation dis- closed by the voting Tuesday proves that it all the legal electors go to the polls at the general election we shall again have representative gov- ernment in this part of the Territory.

It is now conceded that the defeat of Mayor “Big Bill” Thompson, Senator Smith and Gov. Small in Illinois was largely the result of Demo- cratic voting in the Republican primary. The Republican primary vote was more than 200,- 000 greater than the vote for President Coolidge at the last general election. This is explained by the fact that several hundred thousand Demo- crats voted in the Republican primary against the Thompson-Crowe-Small-Smith machine. George B. Brennan, the Illinois Democratic leader, attempted to persuade Democrats to re- frain from voting in the Republican primary. He have a demoralizing effect on the Democratic Party for one thing and, further, that if the Democrats would let the machine out- fit control the Republican primary it would be “pie” for their party next November. However, the “silk stocking” Democrats were more inter- ested in the good name of Chicago than in party advantage in the election and, as the law per- mits them to do, they went to the polls by the hundreds of thousands and voted for “‘respectabil- ity and cleanliness.” ILLINOIS THAT D. A. R. BLACK-L That black-list of the Daughters of the Am- erican Revolution is attracting a lot more atten- tion than it deserves, In the first place, as one of those on the black-list intimated, the proserib- ed ladies and gentlemen are getting more pub- licity and ought to be getting more enjoyment out of the situation than it would be possible for them to get by making speeches under the aus- pices of this or any other society. It is a mat- ter for laughter rather than serious discussion. The nearest serious thing about the whole mat- ter is the ridicule the officers of the D. A. R. are bringing upon their organization. Of course that will right itself in the course of time—nearly éverything does in the end—but the quicker these societies eschew politics and political prob- lems the better it will be for them. Some of them are really worthy of perpetuation, and the D. A. R. ought to be one of the worthy. It would ‘be s0 if. it would continue its historical research and mot try to run the Government.

However, the occasion sh because the preoccupation of the Democrats. We take the opportnity to say that Jefferson s one of the most accomplished men the coun- try ever produced.

Party to Jef- we usually th the duty all not pass unnoticed of The Speaking Mountain. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) America now possesses the most monument in the world—a monument commem- orating Southern distinction and heroism. Work on this mighty rock record—a record for all time —is going gratifyingly forward. The heroic figure of General Robert E. Lee, mounted on his famous horse “Traveler”. will be unveiled at Stone Moun- tain, Ga., today, marking the inaugural comple- tion of this famous memorial to the Confederacy. No pharaoh or Caesar can claim a monu- ment so majestic or so enduring. The towers and tempies and triumphal arches, the pyramids and all the anclent commemorative works of man have crumbled or are in the way of seeking the kindred dust of the earth, but Stone Moun- tain, with its effigies, will endure while the physical world endures. The South has good reason to be proud of this gigantic undertaking and the lasting results achieved. If not another blow of hammer or chisel were to be struck Stone Mountain still would remain one of the world’s supreme won- ders. arved mountain head their imposing in the massive granite side of the the leaders of the Confederacy will immortal cavalcade. It will take twenty-five years to complete the great work. North and South will join in the succeeding dedications with appropriate ceremonials and col- orful military display. Plays and Padlocks. (Manchester Guardian) The use now being made of the Wales pad- lock law which was enacted in New York last year reminds us that our superveillance of the arts, though often vexatious, has its advantages and its simplicities. Our own dramatic censor- ship, for instance, is an historical relic, like much of our constitutional machinery, and its working is often open to criticism, but we imag- ine that all parties concerned would prefer the discipline of the Lord Chamberlain to that of Scotland Yard. New York has lived without any censorship, and it has also experimented in a voluntary system comparable to the self-imposed censorship of the film companies in this country. But now the New York stage is afflicted with a drastic police contrpl, and the French piece “Maya,” which was acted by a producing society in London last autumn, has been the first victim of the District Attorney’s intervention. Under the Wales Act anybody can inform against any play. When information has been laid the police visit the piece and assess its morals. If their verdict goes against it they order the immediate removal of the play under threat of severe pen- alties, one of which is the padlocking of the theatre for a year. That delicate questions of taste and ethics should be submitted to such an arbiter is obviously grotesque, and there is little cause for surprise at the vigorous protests | ALONG LIFE’S DPETOUR By SAM HILL So Why the Heck Be One?
