Now they claim that Tammany is a patriotic organization and not a Political club, showing how we can all be fooled just because they have pretty much run things in New York City the past hundred years. The summer may be a little late in arriving, but its on the way and the country never looked finer than it does right now, so we still have hopes that every thing is going to come out fine. Remember If you desire to attetnl the democratic state convention this Aeek you can secure admission tickets without difficulty if you apply soon. The big Cadle Tabernacle where the meetings will be held will seat ten | thousand people. According to evidence offered before the senate investigating committee Saturday, Wall Street is opposed to Hoover for president but before you jump to conclusions wait and see how much money they put up for the November election if he does laud at Kansas City. The United States is worth three hundred and twenty billion dollars, it is announced and has increased in value 4,400% since 1850. Now you can easily figure out whether you have your share of it or not by dividing that gigantic sum by the population of 130,000,000. President Coolidge lias picked out a wonderful lodge in the Wisconsin w oods for his summer 'vacation. The' place is said to be one of the finest in America with every convenience and plenty of hunting and fishing. We venture the guess he will enjoy itjar more than he did the Black Hills of Dakota last year. It is being claimed that Mr. Coolidge will take the nomination before he will permit it to go to one of the "corn belt’’ advocates but did it ever occur to you that perhaps when that time comes the corn belters may be so well organized that they will have something to say about, any body just taking it? Tlie presidential primary down in West Virginia seems to be sillier than the one in this state. Smith and Goff carried the state but do not get the votes. The perferential is held to show just how the people feel about it, but at the same time delegates are chosen who can and will vote as they wish. Just a lot of expense for nothing evidently. Several Adams county delegates to the state convention left today and the others will follow tomorrow. The meeting promises to be one of the most enthusiastic and interesting the democrats have held in years and should be the opener of a campaign which will land Frank Dailey in the state house as governor, surrounded by officials who will assist him in cleaning up affairs in Indiana. While it still looks as though Hoover would win on the early balloting in the Kansas City convention there are many who believe the meeting will deadlock. If it does watch out for Senator Watson, than whom there

are few better politician* in America. He tnay not be so much for statesmanship but he knows how to manipulate a convention to his advantage. He is second choice in a number of the '. southern states and is friendly with ’■ the Lowden and Dawes supporters. 1 If he gets a good start lie might slip , oVer. That Amarillo editor who got hltt > feelings fractured because he lost out ) on a Lindbergh news story will prob- ! ably get over It In due time. The col- ) onel Is probably not losing any sleep > over the fact that he has been accusj ed of having a swell head. He has hail more hero worship the past year than any body we ever heard of and has kept his feet on the ground. If he wished to visit the Texas town without giving all the details he had 1 as much right to do so as any one else and we have an idea he doesn’t care a snap of the finger what Gene Howe or any other editor, big or little thinks about it. That* one of the reasons we like him. He is not always playing for applause. Big business is consolidating and the gigantic companle s now being 1 formed In railroad, automobile and I steel circles are the greatest ever j known in the world. Such deals have their good sides and their bad angles. The consolidations mean less overhead and consequently lower cost for production seems plausible but usually after a concern gets so great that it dominates a field, the consumer pays just as much or more and the difference in cost of production goes into the pocket of those who do not need it so badly. If they will stay away from that and will give the public the benefits it many turn out . alright, otherwise the pendulum is I sure to swing backward. o **¥¥¥¥■!>¥¥¥¥¥* * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * £¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥» MONDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES (Copyright 1928, by United Press) Central Standard Time Throughout.
