The news- papers devoted an ocean of space to the contentions of speakers on both sides, and be it said that in their news columns they played no favor- ites; speeches by leading orators of the parties in the national arena, and by state and lecal orators, re- ceived all the space—and oftentimes more of it—than they would war- Many readers thought they ving entirely too much po- in the more words rant. were rec litical fare in their newspapers and were glad to. see the end of the wordy warfare. In dddition the party speakers resorted to dissertation ot their views by means of the radio in an unprecedented manner since the birth of this new means of communi- cation. In the face of the foregoing it is ulso safe to conclude that there were more unconvincing werds written and spoken in the campaign than in any other. When the conventions epened last June the country was as normally Republican as it had been for years; and by November 6 it was approximately as Republican as it had been in June. If there had been ne weord spoken on either side on behalf of either candidate, nor by the candidate themselves, the normal Republican vote, changed. .in spots net much more radically than hap- pened to be case, would have even- tuated. In one of his speeches Governor Smith said that the reason the con- ventions are held in June while the voting is done in November is to give the nation time to evaluate the issies und judge of the respective merit of the ecandidates. Which sounds very well in theory: But the bald fact re- maina that the Democratic party way no stronger in November than it wus in June, and the Republican party did not grow appreciably weaker during that time. True, the Salid Mouth grew less solid and some of the states parted company from the ties forged from Civil War da but it would be a rash fellow indeed who would claim this was due to ‘the arguments put forth by the candi- dates. This was due to other consid- erations of which we from the first | declined to take netice and do net intend to take notice today. A campaign without “disc hewever, would not seem like one to American vafers. For one thing, the net result would be that the per- centage of those voting would drop to umpreeedented depths But whether, in such a case, the result of an election would be changed is anybody's guess. We do not anticr- pate a diminution of discussion in future election campaizna, for in the sslon,” expenditure of words ene party will always attempt to equal or surpass the other. The public, patient ana leng-sutfering, must bear the bhrunt in the future as in the past; ana then,.as now, will let much go in one eyeand out the other; will let equal- ly as much enter one “through the other. Much of tired of is mere formality, ear and the electioncering we its chief value being in getting out the vote. THE VOTE ON PROHIBITION The quick to tell the nation that the vie- tory of Hoover Anti-Saloon League has been was an outstanding vietory for prohibition. The vote clearly proves that four-fifths of the the three-fourths or country is dry, according to estimate of the league. The league, of course, is anly part- ly right. 1f the Hoover victory de- notes 2 only in prohibition as Texas. We » to that Smith's wet stand had thing to do with his defest in the Lone Star State, or such other stz vietory for prohibition it was territory, such wil admit some- es that have the same complex. The victory of Hoover in Conneetl. cut. however, surely cannot be re- garded as a victory for prokibitien in this state.
