The American people take a fool ish pride in paying high prices and the profiteers a greater pleasure in taking their easy money. The gul libility of the average citizen is some thing amazing. Like babies, they ought to be protected against Injur ing themselves.

Senator Harding says he wants no perfunctory support for president from Ohio. Harding no doqJt re members the Zanesville Republican convention in 1895 when George K. Nash had a majority of the dele gates for Governor, but the most of them had Asa S. Bushnell pictures pinned on the inside or the lapels .of their coats. Bushnell was nominat ed for governor. Nash only had pcriunciory support, and he had to ord. It would seem that the senators who have been arguing and holding back for a referendum of the people would be ready to read this signpost and behave. A representative who will promise to honestly carry out the will of his people should have it sufficiently in dicated to him when the votes ot less than one-tenth of the students of America are recorded against a league of nations. Of the more than 158,000 votes recorded over 110, 000 were for nnqualified ratification or Immediate compromise. xjebs man zs.ouo would hold out for the Lodge reservations.
