Davis, Democratic candidate for the presidency, during his speech of ace ' ceptance at Clarksburg, W. Va. - with mediacval -ated Projected at a formal occasion, at the “notification” that he the sc- lected candidate of his party, the ad- dress was far from being a perfunce tory greeting to the committee which punctiliousness told him what he already knew—that he was chosen as the Moses who was to 1ead the children of Democracy to the promised land. Candidate Davis took the offensive with spirit and determination. In ringing words he let Field Marshal Butler of the G. O. P. hosts realize that administration scandals remain the chief issues. And he called upon the rank and file in the Republican party not to condone the offenses that their bosses would so readily forget. The attack upon President Coolldge —made without direct mentioning of the president's name, but referring to him simply as the ‘“executive’'—was subtle and effective. “The revelation of these crimes was not the result) of any action taken by the Lixecutive,” Davis told his vast audience. “No burning indignation there put in train the forces of investigation and of pun- ishment. * * * Again when dis- covery was threatened, instead of A? and assistance from the Ex- ecfitive branch there were hurried efforts to suppress the testimony, to discourage witnesses, to spy upon ‘investigators, and finally, by trumped-up ‘ndictment, to frighten and deter them from the pursuit. The spying on scnators and con- gressmen; the hasty interchange of telegrams in department code; the refusal of those accused to come forward, under oath, to purge themselves—all these things serve to blacken a page that was already dark enough.” The domestic record of the ad- ministration, he pungently put it, “pbewildered us at home and humili- us abroad.”” And for these ecandals, he added, “the party now in power cannot escape the responsibility that is its due.” All of this he said, was because in 1020 ‘“we passed through a political campaign in which materialism was preached as a creed and selfishness as a national duty. * ¢ * We have eaten of the fruit of the tree that was planted and it has been bitter in the mouths of even the most indifferent.” The candidate speaks eloquently for the World Court and favors turn- ing our "unofficial observers’ in Euro- pean affairs to official participants in the rebuilding of Europe. “If I be- ecome president * * America will #it as an equal among equals when- ever she sits at ail."” The candidate does not think the League of Nations is a dead issue, 1t is destined more and more to become the bulwark of peace order to mankind, he avers, and continues: and “None of the nations in all this lengthening list with their sovercigaty or sacrificed their fndependence, by their prosence heme or their eannot reconcile with the a different States."” hove parted or ecurity abroad. 1 fears of those who dread fate ho oppose both the World he Persons w Conrt and the League of Nations, declared, wish the United Sta 0| a big hand in i 2 h 1 States to | a big hand in running it after he gets | o\ Tl with the flers. old falr | | ] " But believe that into the until the com- the the League nion judgment of or the a purcly opportunist life does of candidate not entrance America &hould occur American peo- On #poken. 18 ready stop the Kian he was out- Without reiterated issue mentioning it by name he his recent utter- ance opposing vided on racial or Yeligious lines discordant groups di- mind ecan picture He intolerance and disaster that the equals such dJdivision, he declared. denounced bigotry, tace prejudice with Someone apparently had asked him for and Volstead law His answer was forceful and umege’ ocal: biting words. their experience | his stand on the 18th amendment | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, AUGUST 12, 1924, ' i 4 hold in contempt amy public efelal whe teok with up lifted hand an oath 1o suppert th constitution of the Lalted Siates, making ot (he same time & mental reservation whereby a single word of that greal dosument s saciuded from his vow, An administrative officer is no more entitied 1o choose what statutes he will or will pot en. force than is & citlzen 1o choose what laws he will er will not ebey | As well might he ask to strike from the ten commandments those b was not inelined to keep."

The French appear to have showed remarkable willingness to get out of the Ruhr, probably due to the fact that (he occupation did not bring the returns that Poincare expected, The former premier was a good hand at making promises and acted precipi- tately and in a maoner to please the T'rench industrialists at the time; but the costs were excessive, passive re- sistance brought on horrors, and the claim by Germany that the selzure was a violation of the Versailles treaty and the resulting refusal of the Reich to co-operate, made the occupation a sort of national white elephant upon the hands of French politicians. The occupation, which began Jan. 11, 1923, yielded France raw materials but no gold. When Herriot returned to Parls, | dispatches say he was greeted with wild acclaim at the railroad stations, and was given to understand by the thousands gathered to greet him that the evacuation was an entirely popu- lar move. The only persons such an evacua- tion will not please are the National- jsts, but they don't happen to be in power and appear out'of the political running for some time to come. going success | Ll PERILS OF BEING GOVERNOR. “Young Charlie Templeton” is go- ing back home—but just for a day. The governor ot Connecticut will be | welcomed by his former fellow towns- | men in 8haron on the occasion of the Sharon street fair on Aug. 14. A platform has been raised from which the governor can make a speech and |if he wishes t6 remain until night he will have the pleasure of seeing ‘‘our musical revue and circus which we consider very fine,” according to the gladsome invitation extended to the governor by the executive secretary of the great event, Every town has some person of dis- tinction to worship; some fucky towns have several; others are forced to | stretch the imagination to find some- hody whom to hang the mantle of state or national promi- nence, But it usually can be done.

As it s usually & safe prophecy to say Maine | is to go n‘epybuun, the same delicate morsel is being rolled between the | tongue this year. But there is a difference this year, Maine held a direct primary last June and the chief issue in the Re- publican ranks hinged around the Ku Klux Kian, The official returns gave Frank G. Farrington, president of the state senate and anti-Klan can- didate, a majority of 320, But this majority was contested by Ralph O. Brewster, state senator and supported by the Kian, ¥raud in Ward 4 of Portland was claimed, ahd a long and bitter political argument ensued, finally resalting in a recount which gave the nomination to Brew-| ster by 581 votes. Gov, Baxter, an-| nouncing the fraud had been defl- nitely established, declared Brewster | nominated. | Now the Republicans of Maine who voted against Brewster because he was credited with being the Klan| candidate—although he claims he did not solicit Klan support—are expected to vote for him to become the Klan governor. Will énough of them do it to elect him? And if he is elected, will he gain anything like the sweep* ing Republican majority that the Re- publican candidate could get without the Klan plague to upset politics? Will many of those Republicans who voted tor Farrington be willing toi vote for the Democrate candidate, and | it 30, Wil there be sufficient of them | to elget? Whatever the returns from Maine will show, the chances are that the Republican vote throughout New England cannot be gauged there thisi‘ year. It anything, fewer are likely to vote the Republican ticket in the gubernatorial election than there are Republicans who will vote for Cool- | idge. EXPAND THE ATR MAIL.
