Two senators, one a progressive, the other Boles Penrose of Pennsyl vania, travelled on the same train from Washington to Chicago to at tend the Republcian national conven tion of 1912. They argued over Roosevelt. 'Senator,' said the progressive, you well know that he Is the cholc .f a large majority of the party, nd that on an honest count he has the convention by from 40 to 60 majority. I warn you that if he is robbed of his victory by steam rol ler methods his victory wil split the party wtdo open." "All right," answered Penrose, "we might as well scuttle the ship ana drown the rats.'' Ho scuttled the ship, but he did not drown the 'rats.' The old puard came nearer irownlng themselves. Signs abound that the days of Pen rose's bossism are over and that Prpsiripnt-olart Harriin" la oaalHnw counsel from party leaders who art ciose to tne people and will not take dictation from the Pensylvanta boss. It will not help Senator Penrose to' sneer as he did the othor day In an interview on the subject of the coun try's foreign policies,, xne people ar turning against dictators, autocrats and bosses. The day of Senator Penrose's power has passed and he has been made to know it since hb arrived in Washington to take hi. a 'at in the Senate. As the Wash ington correspondent of The Spokesman-Review telegraphs: "His statement given oat this af ternoon, announcing thai he haa lelded gorund on the passaje oi he emergency tariff bill only meant that he had discovered that the far mers' champions were in the saddle acatn. He came here thinking him self an Aldrich, competent to com i.iaud and to have his word obeyed. Three days, however, satisfied him hat the powers which he assumed v,-hen the republican party was not in control of the senate were only mythical. If he ever was a boss, as Liduy decline to admit, he found that all of his power had faded and new leaders had supplanted him." Mr. Harding is too sagacious and conscientious to take dictation from men like Senator Penrose. n, wisely sees that his unprecedented popular plurality of 7,000.000 votes lays upon him a solemn obligation to serve the American people, to take counsel from unselfish sources and to restore the government to the ways of genuine democracy. Spokesman Review. HARDING OBJECTS TO INAUGUR AL DISPXiAY. President-elect Harding's objec tion to inaugural display and extra vagance is characteristic of his sim ple tastes, freedom from ostentation and desire to set a helpful example to the nation. He well says that "it is timely and wholesome to prac tice the utter denial of public ex penditures where there Is no real neceslsty, and it will be a wholesome example of economy and thrift if we save the man? manv v. a. lUUUHUUI WhlCh thfl InAllCMlrnl nalah,U. would call from the private purse of those attending.

It would ill become our government, the accept ed exemplar of popular sovereignty, to drift Into exhibitions of pomp and ceremony, and to indulge in elabor ate ceremonial practices, in these times, when even monarchies are re fraining from them. Mr. Harding has spoken wisely and his Judgment will be commended by the country. STOP LOOK LISTEN It is stated that there are more than six million automobiles In use In this country and this number is Increasing dally, as the automobile is becoming more and more a ne cessity In dally business and playing. Each year newspaper dispatches announce an increasing number of accidents on rallrosd crossings anu 'he loss of life and property caused by these is becoming so great as to be alarming Now we wish to emphasize this early In the season that caution is always an excellent virtue and safety first brings Its own reward. Rail road trains cannot stop and let you pass, neither can you calculate the speeds which by casual observation is always deceiving. Don't try to "beat a train to the crossing'' for it mlsht meet you with full force upon the crossing and we will have the usual story. Unfortunately you may not know what happened, and your friends will have to bestow upon you the last sad honors. As the rule books of every rail Every time a man risks his prec ious body to save the life of some title tot carelessly playing where death-dealing danger lurks, he is ac claimed a hero and his picture is given preferred position in all the newspapers, but the mother who takes greater risks halt a doten times during a lifetime for llttW tots who have not yet even receive! the breath of life, receives only ap preciation for duty well done.
