' will be increased postage rates on second class matter which go into effect July Ist. These are just a few of tlip many reasons why we must increase the subscriptum price. Speaking of vice pre..ldents, the In dianapolts Star pays the following tribute to Vice-president Thomas It. Marshall: "The country has been particular ly fortunate in the last seven years In having ns vice-president u man of Mr. Marshall's judgment and sound views on the theory of government, it is hoped the democrats ut San ’’rancisco will not fail to maintain he present standard which the party has set for the second office jn the hind.” The correspondent of the New York World who had an interview vith President Wilson the other day, Mates that the president talked with i twinkle in his eye and that bls tine months’ battle to regain his ■ormer good health has neither taunted the spirit nor Impaired in lhe slightest degree, the splendid in ellect of this great man. The corespondent also states that the pres ident is all the more determined tc Ight for right and justice and tc •ring America to her sense of duty. Within the last two years the repub-; • lican press of the country has tried e belittle President Wilson and block everything he has tried to do for mankind, but you can't fool all tire people all the time and get Uway with it. The people are beginning to realize that in Woodrow Wilson. America has one of the greatest presidents in its history. The New York Times in expressing their that Harding would be a "rubner stamp" president if elected a Ives the following reasons why the senatorial group put him .across: "Government of the senate, by the rmate and .for the senate." That uotto and intent could hardly be written plainer upon the nomination of /(aiding. He was all along the secret si.d favorite choice of the senatorial igarchy that finally proved to be in control of the Chicago convention. Its preference for Harding was suspected from the first announcing of . his candidacy: now it is established. Senator Penrose speaks boldly of the : atisfactory “conjerences" which he and his colleagues had with Harding. . And when the time came, predicted

i by tho frank-spoken Daugherty of i Ohio, Senator Harding's nuunagbr r for a few men to meet in a room and l decide whom the tired and deadlocknd delegates should nominate tor tie presidency, nine out of ten of th l ' conferees .were senators. The J : agreed that the moment had come • for them to take their courage in both hands and "put over” th; ir original candidate. This they then pr > ; ■ ceded to do in the most open way. , I 'living the word of command to the , I delegates in the eyes of all. • "Why the clique of dominant re--1 publican senators should want Hard--1 Ing Is no mystery. They like the man ' personally, ns do all his associates ' He ip of infinite good nature, never harboring resent ments mid forev, r smiling even over the wall of parties. He would never attempt to force a policy of his own upon the senate. ’ Indeed, it is doubtful if he would, triginate any distinct and forcible ’ tolicy at al). His role would be genial I o-opeiution with the senate. If a reaty was to be negotiated, he would “t senators do the work and have •heir way. As for "senatorial tour- 1 /•Sy,” it would be delightfully enhroned in the White House. Patronise and appropriations would go' moothly under the sweetly reason able dictation of the rulers of the senate. "Whatever may be in the mind of equator Harding himself in regard to all this, there is no doubt what the annate aspires to achieve.- It wishes to make itself dominating in the gov- : ■■rnment. In the republican platform written by ami for senators, there is a demand that the president be stripped of certain alleged “autocratic 1 powers.” To whom are they to go? ■ Naturally, to those who can make a better use of them—namely, the sen-' ,',lcrs in control. For some time their'; .appetite has been growing by what it • has fed upon. They have killed the treaty. They have thwarted the president. Now they desire to make their supremacy permanent. To them it seems* terrible that a president should venture,to say, “The ( state, it is I," but if they cap only . change that to read, “It fs we? they 'j see no objection.’ So to change it is the scarcely concealed ambition of .' tije senate. And it is because the i republican senators are firmly convmced that Harding wiH oppose no bstacle to this grasping of power]a that they favored his nomination, i■’ did their best to bring it about and 1 now openly rejoice in it" n . j.

Ohio aijd the democratic solid south, running on a light wine and beer plank. The movement to Carter Glass, which McAdoo supporters started, apparently lost momentum shortly after it got under way. Glass said he lived in a section "which is relied upon to furnish the electorial votes but 1 not the candidates." It was also ' pointed out that McAdoo’s strength came from labor and that Glass could not hope to inherit this. The McAdoo withdrawal coming on the heels of the Wilson interview brought a revival of reports that President Wilson would seek a third term. Two democratic senators denied that Wilson would seek a third term and (Jeclared that the reports were started to injure Wilson. Both these senators are close to the white house. Senator Glass is slated to head lhe resolutions committee on which administration backers believed they are assured a majority of the members.
