POLITICAL PARTIES
The flood of oratory at 'the TGcont political conventions in
, ..Chicago, rihd'the platforms framed by 'the 'two'grea't parties
'there, are causing thoughtful people 'to frontier whether' or
';,"not there is any real difference between Republican and
Democratic policies of government. '!'""
Of couise thd Democrats flayed the Republicans for their
, disasti'oiiH ' V)1it1e.s' which1 "'have' ruined 6ur' 'foreign trade,
' destroyed' the values' (if our commodities aiid products, crip
!pled our banking system,' robbed millions of people of their
( life savings and thrown 'millions more out of work, produced
wide-spread poverty, and brought the government to a state
- of financial distress unprecedented in times of peace,"
.v". But, is it possible that the' coii'ntYy wotild have been able.
(" to avoid the difficulties of the past two or three years if
only the Denocrats'1haU been in full control ? ' Would we
have been Able to sustain the usual volume of foreign trade
in spite of poverty-stricken Asiatic arid European mtti6ns?
If the Democrats had been in power would speculators htfve
been saved from ruinous losses'dn the stock market? Would
prices have remained at their original high levels, and wtc-
everyone now -have a job with good wages?- ; ,
It is hard to believe that there c'ould be so much difference
between the policies of two American1 political parties' -Which
are both striving for the same goal, and no sane person, Re
publican, or Democrat, docs believelit. ; Any such statements
nre -nothing -more than appeals to prejudice. .y.?-. r
"'"As' aii adtual 'fact'the Democrats have been in controi of
congress during the past session. Of course, they could not
riiuster enough strength to pass :t,ny legislation 'over the
Resident's veto. But they did not even work together:
Party lines were ol)literated'in the voting on countless meas
ures in bbth' houses. Neither Republicans nov Democrats
appeared t&'be guided, by liny great party principles. ;,Each
senator and representative seemed to be-interested primarily
in conducting' himself in such a way as would bo most likely
t6 assure his re-election. ' " . .
''''The rank and file 'elf our. citizens hold differing opinions
on such questions as the 'tariff,- farm 'relief, unemployment
relief, international relations, prohibition, and government
finance regardless 'of party affiliations. It would almost
seeni that political parties have degenerated to slich an ex
tent that we might be better off if they were abolished.
v'But under the present scheme of government wo cannot
get along without them. The selection of office holders
would be hopeless confusion without 'party 1 organization.;
Some day we may discover a more efficient method, but in
the meantime we shall have to blunder along as best we can
mid refrain from criticism unless we have something better
tO' offer:
' TIIK SMMK OM TIIIN'Cl -So

Cuitis agulntit Kooscvelt and Garner.
The tl mo-honored battle of votes,
that Khbkea this country to Iti emo

l bout to begin. . . .
During this period nearly everyone
is guuiB to be a trifle crazy. 'h..i2
aro going to be ftald and done .hai
would never be done or said, ut any
otr.er time.
Friendships will be broken, even
homes disrupted. With prohibition aa
a vital Hsue, the fat-will be. In the
flro from the outset, and on neaily
every kitchen stove there will be a
keg of dynamite. Hoover and Cur';i
will be painted an simps and Imps of
Satan by one faction, and saints and
saviours of the country, by the other.
It will be the old, old game, played
In this land of the free for nearly
one hundred and fifty years, only It
promises to be a trifle worse. With
people starving, embattled hosts will
be crying for a drink; with business
prostrate, literally millions of dollars
will be thrown uwuy, to settle the
difference i between Republican twee-
dlc dum and Democratic tweedle dee.
For It is perfectly clear to any
thinking person NOW though it won't i
bo clear a few months hence. that I
as fur as the fundamentals of human
life are concerned, whether Hoover
and Curtis, or Roosevelt and Garner
enter office on March 4th next, will
make no difference whatever.
If this country Is going wet. It Is
going wet, rcgardles- of who happens
to sit in tho White House; if this
country Is going to stay dry, it la go
ing to stay dry, and no president of
the United States can prevent it. If
business is going to Improve the next
four years, it Is going to Improve re
gardless of the party label on the
White House door; If It lan't, then no
partisan continuation or political
change Is going to provent It,
In apltc of the cynical prophets and
tha calamity howlers, In the FUNDA
MENTALS the moral and material
destiny of the people of this country,
lie not in .their politicians but in
their OWN hands. As tho two major
parties are at present constituted, the
only difference the fall election will
make, to tho people as a whole, Is
tin difference between one party label
and another, a difference of serious
importanco ONLY TO THE OFFICE
HOLDERS. .
But tinder the spell of the prevail
ing political psychosis, few of us ore
going to believe 'it, and so the crazy
snake dance of political partisanship
win go on and on and on. Med-

of Gibraltar, which, if ever completed, will prove a greater
diplomatic feat than an' engineering undertaking.
-'-Engineers would not hesitate to tunnel the neck of the
Mediterranean "bottle' which is less than half as wide as
the English Channel, but diplomats (pinko lit the very thought;
of the international questions' involved. ;
The pi opoSed African terminus Is in'the internationalized
zone of Tangiers, where several European powers have a toe-'
hold and the United Slates reserves certain administrative
rights. The Spanish territory lying beyond and the French;
protectorate of Morocco mean that both Spain and France
must lo fully conferred with. And then, as if these were
not complications enough, there is England at the other end
Standing sentry in Spanish territory. ;
" lA lube for Gibraltar might hot have a quieting effect on
European polities, but it would do more for the development
hud modernization of Northwestern Africa than the occupa-'
tiou of that region by European' soldiery has done in decades.
Morocco nnd Tangiers would not long remain oriental after
trade began pouring through this intercontinental tube.
1 The fate of the tube rests upon the politics of Europe and
Africa, not tipbn the need for this channel of trade.
POMTIOH
Politics! The "outs" tearing at the
vitals of tho "ins" for political pow
er and tho 3pol!s of office. Tho "outs"
are of course the attackers the
prosecutors. With Innunendo and
damnation every act of the n trench
ed "ins" is held up to the public jury
ns a scandalous sin against the suf
fering people. Wo learn from the
Democratic convention that the Re
publican party 13 composed in largo
part, if not wholly, of thieves and
thugs, of liars and leeches, of plund
crers and blunderers, Incompetents
and weaklings, knaves and inquisl
tionors, and that the party Is the
party of special privilege, of Wall
street, of the rich and powerful, and
that to save, this grand and glorious
land of tho free and homo of tho
bravo from Its destroyers it Is inv
perativo that we change party labels
on the machinery or government,

But no one told you. did he, that
we now havo a .Democratic congress
nnd that all legislation comes from
congress; and ,no one told you, did
lie, that what llttla has been accom

driven through by .the prc3ldent; and
no one told you, did he, why the
Democratic congress did not abolish
the farm board and the other abuses
which, tho, .convention . orators so
vehemently condemn; and no. one
told you. did he, that the president
has akcd congress time and again
