Rival Candidates
Rapped by Colvin
In Salem Speech
Salem, Sept. 11. Neither Senator
Harding nor Governor Cox is qualified
for the position of president of the
United Statee, according to D. Leigh
Colvin, prohibition candidate for vice
president, who addressed a meeting here
Friday night. Both the Republican and
Democratic candidates represent the last
desperate effort of "wft" elements of
the nation to regain control, Colvin de
clared. Prohibition Is not a dead issue simply
because It has been incorporated In the
federal constitution. Colvin insists, de
ploring the indifference with which the
people of the nation now regard the
dry question. The election of a wet con
gress, Cbhin warned, would spell dis
aster to the cause of prohibition.

away longer than he should nave and
knew that MUle Mrs. Peter would be
waiting for him with a sharp tongue had
he dreaded to go home aa he did thia
time. .
You see. Peter had got to fMl little
Mrs. Peter what had happened to their
willful little son. He had got to tell
her how Farmer Brown'a boy had taken
him away, and he knew Just how that
would upset little lira. Peter. lie was
upaet himself, but he knew that It would
be worse for her. In the first place she
waa not so well acquainted with Farmer
Brown'a boy aa he was. She seldom ven
tured far from the dear Old Briar-patch
and knew little of the Great World. To
her it was a very terrible place and she
would trust no one- in It. So Peter
dreaded to go home tatd have to tell her
what had become of tneir little runaway
son.
But It hud to be done and Peter hopped
slowly across the Green Meadows toward
the dear Old Briar-patch. Mrs. Peter
was waiting for hint and hopped out
eagerly to meet him. She saw by Peter's
face that he had no good news for her.
"Oh, I'eter. didn't you find him?" she
cried.
Peter shook his head. "No," said he.
"No. He wasn't In the old stone wall.
He had been there, but he wasn't there
when 1 got there, and I don't know
where he Is. That Is. I don't know Just
where .he -48." Tou tee Teter wailed to
be triAhful. He believes In telling the
truth at nil times.
Little Mrs. Peter ncttced that correc
tion at once. "What do you mean, Peter
Rabbit, by saying that you don't know
Jut where he is?" she demanded, and
looked at Peter suspiciously.
"Exactly what I said." replied Peter,
turning his head aside so that she
couldn't see his face. "I don't know
Just where he is."
"But you do know something about
him V cried little Mrs. Peter. "Tou ere
trying to keep something from me. Peter
Rabbit. He he isn't dead, is ha?"
"No ! Oh no ! He is perfectly well."
Peter hastened to tell her.

"How do you know he la?" demanded
little Mrs. Peter.
There was nothing for Peter to do but
tell her all about how Farmer Brown'a
boy had caught that runaway little
Rabbit and taken him away. He pre
tended that he himself waa not In the
least worried, but little Mrs. Peter would
not be comforted.' She knew that they
never again woufO see thelf little son.

to comfort her. He reminded her of all
the nice things Farmer Brown'a boy had
brought them and how he never hinted
them any more. He told her of all the
kindly acta toward their neighbors on
the Green Meadows which Farmer
Hrown'a boy had done. It waa uaeleas.
Such little faith in him aa she had was
wholly lost.
But Peter tried to make her see that
It would have been much worse had he
been their only child. There were still
five left and they needed her care and
watchfulness that no harm might come
to them. But the five little ones left
couldn't and didn't make up for the
little one lost. So little Mrs. Peter
grieved and grieved, and with all her
heart ahe haled Farmer Brown's boy.

ing George M. Johnson, who has served
one term. Both are running on the Re
publican ticket. W. C. Oberg is also
