THE SPEECH OF ACCEPTANCE.

Toer la nothing profound about the speech of ac

ceptance ol Senator Harding for the republican preal dentlal nomination. It 13 written in plain-spoken language bat all can read aod understand. As a quasi

state paper It comes about as near being an cld-fash-ioned etatement of simon-pure and sane Americanism been heard In this country for many years. It v4oesbot. dodg-e eny question of contemporaneous history. It rices not tread on thin Ice any where; In fact 14 ldraa admirable and conservative document that

makes tho .republican party proud of such a leader.

Xt' treats fire moot questions splendidly. On these flveflt lilts the nail on the head for Instance:

League of Katlona Pledges republican party to

any peace, tor i followed by an association or nations tor International Justice. Repudiates President

.Tniflon'a league In Its entirety. Prohibition Holds out little hope for wet3;1 wares that if "elected he will be a "constitutional pres

ident" an rigidly prohibition legislation now on the

statutes.

Suffrage Urges Immediate ratification and oper

ation of the federal suffrage amendment.

Labor and" Capital Warns labor that it must glvaj

VXUU flay a. work zor a full day s pay. and warns

capital that it must be more sympathetic -with aspirations of the porkers. Railroads Reiterates republican opposition to policy of government ownership. ' These, are the questions of gravest interest to the American leople at present. Senator Harding has no panaceas' tior pills. He would use sound, common sense

li Ju A 3 ministration of the country's affairs. His

peeclrOf-cceptance cwas very encouraging.

v , RETRIBUTION " .Although he escaped punishment for his crimes In a-court of His f ellowmen, "William Hohenzollern, broken In body and spirit, a refugee from the land he once ruled witli'an-iron handis not to make retribution entirely in the hereafter. A grief-stricken father, he was not ven permitted to TisH the bier of a dissolute, weakling eon who died by' his own hand, bearing his sorrow at the bedside

nominees for the presidency. A bunch of old maids

playing poker would look dignified in comparison. Next probably will be organization of antl-elavery ticket and a Colonial party to procure the independence of the thirteen colonies from England eo that there may be no taxation without representation. Then we can fight the battles of Bunker Hill and Gettysburg and Antletam all over again. So reasons the average person who reads of the deliberations of the camel convention. But, let's see. Here's the delegation from Colorado carrying a plank to the convention calling for prohibition of the manufacture and sale of tobacco products, ln&lating that it be included in the platform. But that, of course, is neither significant or important and we apologize for having called attention to It.

RETURNING GREAT PROFITS. No man has any right to make a great Eum ct off the people, even if It comes in a way of a contract with the government. If a man has a $50,000 contract with the government and clears $10,0000 or $20,0000 from it the enormons profit should be taken from him and he be allowed only a reasonable amount. No government authority has a right to make a contract by which the people are cheated, and the very fact that It Is a legal contract does not make it an honest transaction. We have heard of contracts in which men have cleaVed $50,0000 to $100,0000. It is no mere defensible than highway robbery. The laborer Is worthy of his hire, but not the whole crop. There Is a rule that you cannot sue the government, and the reason Is stronger when you contend you cannot cheat the government. We hope there will be a commission to discover who has made himself infamously rich off of government contracts during the war and then take It from him and put it back in the treasury, where it belongs. A man has no right to cheat a private citizen and much less has he the right to cheat the public.

FARMERS BUYING TRUCKS. Reserve forces that can be concentrated when the time is "just right" have always been a necessity on the farm, but the farmer's difficulties in this connection are augmented today by high labor costs, and this fact is proving a powerful argument for the motor truck on the farm, according to advocates of motCT transport. T Vi a - nrln II .

iu a ijrfinninary survey or tne owner

ship and use of motor trucks by farmers, undertaken by the offlce of farm management and the Bureau of Crop Estimates, Department of Agriculture, which V

uuva mat at least ou,oooo farmers in the United

States own motor trucks which they use on their farms. The figures on which the totals for the entire

country as well as for the aeyeral states are based, were

secured through the co-operation of approximately 35,-

ooo selected crop reporters, who were asked to report

tho names and addresses of farmers owning motor trucks for farm use, Passenger crs and trailers for

use with passenger ars were exciuded. Trucks used primarily for general custom hauling or cn regularly established routes were not included.

While this survey cannot be considered complete

it is rtasonablc to belle0 that in no state were less t!.an seventy-five per cent of the trucks on farms re-

poited. fo that the figuics ?how relative distribauon satisfactorily.

PROHIBITION OP WHAT?

Prohibition has been in effect In the United States for more than six months, presumably. The prohibition amendment bjcame a part of they constltvitioaof, he United States on January 16, last. The Prohibition party, organised to outlay "Booze ' hold3 a national convention six months after lta object has been attained -apparently and the delegates
