Hoover and Renomirfarion
KAKtuLiX does one take for a text a quotation from the
writings of Ruth Hanna McCormick who tried to imi
, tate her father and boodle her way into the United States
senate. She does write in her Rockford, 111., paper urging
republicans not to be driven by blind precedent to renomin
ate Herbert Hoover for president, and says :
. "A good beginning for the Republican party this year would
,be a resolution to atop saying: 'In accordance with a time-honored
custom, we shall, of course, renominate the president and .
begin to say: 'Who Is the best man in the tilted states for the
biggest job Uncle Sam ever tackled.' "
That is well said. "Who is the best man for the biggest
job? Immediately one comes face to face with the paucity
of material in either the republican or democratic party for
. measuring up to tne required specifications. The country
thought Mr. Hoover had them. He had had administrative
experience, was well grounded in economics, had broad
the president and acquitting him of all responsibility for the
catastrophe which has come upon us, it must be admitted
that his leadership has been halting, and many times his
methods have revealed, a lack of gagacity, of courage. Occas
ionally there would be spurts when the Hoover we voted for
gleamed forth, but these were staccato notes in a term other
wise dull. . s '
. There are those who take the position that Pres. Hoover
snouia oe renominated or the party confess failure. That is
a childish view to take. Mrs. McCormick is dead right when
sue asKs wny Hoover should not be freely discussed and im
partially weighed as seeker for nublic office" Tf th0 vrfv
has anyone, who appears to have greater vision and firmer
courage assuredly fce should be drafted for the job.
On the other hand we have no svximathv with thns vnn
regard party victory as the summon -bonum, who would drop
uveruoara wiinom a quaim merely because they think
he might not be re-elected. The party is greater than a de
feat; and if the Hoover policy is dead right the party should
o.tu njui miu, iw xau wun mm ii neea oe.
There is another attitude toward Hoover, which was ex
pressed, recently by William Allen White, "Dont shoot the
pianist. ; ne is doing the best he can." Perhaps he is, but these
are no times for piano practice. A man must make some real
harmony m this disordered -world. Such a left-handed com
pliment is hardly fit as a campaign slogan, nor a very reas-
ouiiiig appeal xo ine voters lor four more years of power.
But when .we turn from Mr. Hoover we find a dearth
of material within the republican party who might rate as
of presidential calibre. There are the self-starters like Pin
xhot and Johnson. There are nartv hrV lito Wof.nn rA

As Morales nodded, Don Bob rose.

well filled with vaqueros and their
jubilant ways this night" The old
mans spare form shook ia silent
laughter that was rather horrible to
watch.
In a moment two vaqueros had led
forward the Yaqui chieftain, his
hands bound behind him, his great
chest bare. He stood before his cap-
tors and his gaze passed rapidly over
the faces of all the men, then came
to rest on Jito. The Indian waited
for no questioning, but spoke ia
rapid Spanish.
"Since what time have you mis
taken the Yaqui people for peon
dogs, big one? Since when is it per
mitted that your horsemen ride
through my village and stampede my
horses and frighten my women? It
is not very wise for the few to make
enemies of the many. Jito, the Mex
ican, is big and broad of shoalders,
and as I stand here he could kill me
with those great hands of his, or
could call his horsemen to shoot me
down. But that. too. would not be
wise. My people back ia the hills
are not so easily killed. Within two
days they would sweep over your
land like a sea, and the hacienda of
Don Paco Morales would be as yesterday."
