He was a hater of strong drink and the virile phrases in which he flayed “demon rum” crackled around the ears of liquor barons the length and breadth of the land. Like the late Huey Long in politics, Billy Sunday was a colorful and magnetic character in his field.| No man has ever made the general public so religion conscious. There is not a street corner in the country where you can't find a man who says he knew the man who was three times converted by Billy Sunday, but no matter if some of his followers were repeaters, the evangelist made them “hit the trail,” and he spread the gospel as no man has ever done in this country. The old revival meetings just won't be the same. Republican Mountaineers. (New York Times.) What region or subregion of the United States is without its Republican convention, ronference, con- venticle? These meetings of “dele ates,” somewhat | mysteriously selected or appointed are precious for | edification; likewise for re-edification, reorganization, rejuvenation, revival. Recently Salt Lake City was the theatre of a convention “of Republican leaders of eight mountain States”: Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, ;Mumsna‘ Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming. Two | hundred delegates were called to order by the Utah | National Committeeman. It is instructive to notice | how strong is the hand of the old party managers |in all these manifestations. At one time much was heard about’ the Republican new birth.

They are for it. Giving balance of power to the Republicans in the New York Assembly has slight if any bearing on the general Democratic setup, nor should the Republicans rub their hands too enthusiastically over the outcome. Assemblymen, which correspond to our Territorial Legislators, are elected on purely local issues. the business mind is calm and conditions are around or near normal the party stamp doesn't have much to do with local problems and the candidate is elected who takes the right side on the purely local issue. It is clearly reflected in the New York election. Demo- cratic Governor Lehman’s State relief bond issue was overwhelmingly supported at the same time that Re- publicans were being elected to the Assembly from various precincts to replace Democrats. The same conditions prevailed relative to the elec- tions of Mayors in Philadelphia, Cleveland and Colum- bus. Republican Mayors were chosen because the majority of the citizens of those cities figured they were right on local problems. Surely, the success or failure of the Agriculture Act in Ohio cannot be read into the election of a municipal head in- Cleveland or Columbus. Only Chairman Henry Fletcher of the G. O. P. National Committee or some of his henchmen who have to build up a campaign for 1936 against the Democrats can do that. ‘When the Democrats were swept into power in 1932 by an irate and desperate electorate which had suffered the pangs of the worst depression in history, drastic and far-reaching measures were necessary not only to save the entire financial structure of the country but to immediately provide for human needs and relieve individual human suffering. To accomplish this pro- gram, unusual legislation and action were adopted to a degree foreign to the general conception of Amer- ican government. The gradual but certain return to better times are evident on all sides as the voting in the recent elec- tions shows. As a consequence, the President and his advisors will undoubtedly heed this trend and while their future program will in no sense be reactionary it is reasonable to believe that progressive conservatism will supplant the extremes to which the Administra- tion justly went to accomplish the general recovery the nation is now enjoying. BILLY SUNDAY. Many a person who “hit the sawdust trail” in reply to the dynamic pleading of Billy Sunday will mourn the passing of one of the most picturesque evangelists of modern times. His sudden death in Chicago will be a shock to thousands and undoubtedly a personal loss to many for never was a ci-euit riding preacher more widely known than Willilam Ashley Sunday, the first man to combine showmanship in the presentation of religion. As a result of his circus tactics and bally- hoo language, some were not particularly impressed with his religious efforts but he must be given credit for doing a great deal to popularize religious thought and the bible. Millions have heard his fiery pleas for salvation, and, whether or not his converts stayed converted, Sunday probably was sincere in his self- styled battle against Satan. Born at Ames, Ia., in 1863, Sunday started life as a professional baseball player, playing with Chicago, Pittsburgh and Philadelphia in the National League. In 1896 he became the glib-tongued orator of Christ and in 1903 was ordgined as a Presbyterian minister. But no church held the magnetic young preacher long and he soon was travelling over the country, carry- ing the scriptures to millions in the big and little cities of the nation. The arrival of Billy Sunday for a week’s stand in a city was heralded with the same clatter than ushered in the arrival of a circus. News- papers printed columns of his pithy, slanguage; his tabernacles were jammed at every meeting. Many came out of curiosity, some to “hit the sawdust trail” ds the evangelist dubbed the route down the aisles When | | party has always stood for.” Here is more than a keynote. Here is a platform of unity on which every | Republican can stand with both feet. Marconi as a Killer. (St. Louis Post-Dispatch.) Signor Marconi is an Italian’ and when Italy calls he answers. The report that he will soon be on the African front must be read in the light of patriotic duty. Still, there will be regret. The genius of Marconi, to which the world is in- debted beyond accounting, has been inspiringly con- structive. It has vindicated Milton's pronouncement that “peace hath its victories no less renowned than war.” It has ended forever the once hopeless isolation of a ship at sea. It has written sagas of heroism for what had been dark items in the age-long toll of disaster and death. Transcending all its commercial- | ism and the infinity, almost, with which it has com- | munication, the wireless has conferred on Marconi the degree of history’s matchless life-saver. Somehow the man seems out of character in the | service of Mars. But the micro-wave, with which he | has been experimenting, is said to be an extraordinary military weapon. Little is known about it. The rumor | that it could render enemy planes useess by disabling | their engines has been dismissed by the iay mind as a vagary of the Oppenheim school of fiction. How the warriors of the world intrusted with the business of | defense have regarded it is naturally not known. | Presumably it can function destructively or enhance| : ‘ the destructive capacity of established arms. Ethiopia | is to drink deeper, apparently, of civilization's lethal cup. A Gang Still Must Pay. (Kansas City Times.) [ ‘With Al Capone safely in prison these several years and with his fellows similarly accounted for or in hiding, it would seem that this particular gang had become a matter only for the criminal records of the country. Yet the Federal treasury still is optimistic about more revenue from this racketeering source and lhas Jjust certified an income tax assessment of $120,000 again Capone and a group of his confederates. This | action grows out of the operations of a huge beer | syndicate which the gang had set up back in Pro- hibition days. Good citizens the nation over will hope that the treasury collects every penny that is due and that the Department of Justice, which still is at work on the case, finally will round up every offender involved. | Revenue that now may be obtained, along with that already had, will make the monetary returns on this| particular instance of law enforcement much larger than is customary, although they will not pay the expenses of the investigation, apprehension and con- viction of gang members. But the lesson is there. While the “profits” in this instance were perhaps the largest in the gangdom history of America, they were temporary and fugitive. The outcome is not encour- aging to such major gang operators as now may remain. A correspondent declares that Haile Selassie works 15 hours a day and seldom gets regular meals.
