HARDING AND COOLIDGE The bulletin favored the candi dacy of Leonard Wood for the re publican nomination for the presi dency and regrets that he was not the victor at Chicago. He came more nearly to being the popular choice than any other candidate and. if nominated, we believe would be elected easily and would give the country a good administration. The decision was, however, willed other wise and we have no quarrel with it. Senator Harding apparently thought he had no chance for the nomination. In spite of the gradual accession of votes noticeable from the time the balloting began, he had no Idea that it would turn into a landslide, and late Friday night he filed his acceptance of the nomina tion for senator tendered him by the republicans of Ohio. But on Satur day the break from the popular fav orites began, and by night be was on his way to the presidency. Having made no active campaign for the nomination. Senator Harding is in the fortunate position of hav ing made no enemies by pre-conven-tion activity. This should assure him the undivided support of the party. In addition, his eminent qualifications for the presidency Bhould bring him the support of un attached voters, who nre weary of the incompetence of the democratic party and recognize Its political Bankruptcy. . Strangely enough the candidate for the vice presidency is probably bet ter known throughout the nation than the presidential nominee. Cal vin Coolidge's record as governor of Massachusetts has given him a na tional reputation and popularity that will add great strength to the ticket. He rounds it out and gives added insurance of its success. We are for Harding and Coolidge. Rippliri$RhumQS$ ' i II II I The Campaign. Let's have a clean campaign, devoid of squab blings vain; to candidates and kindred skates a courteous mein maintain. Let's hold no long dis putes with eloquent galoots, not fill the air with fur and hair, and bricks and rocks and boots. It's useless to get sore and rant and walk the floor, convincing jakes of their mistakes they'll make the same some more. It's useless to see red, and punch your neighbor's head; because that wight may weJl be right, when all is done and said The statesmen come along and chant the same old song ; if they get in they'll banish sin, and outlaw every wrong. I hear the siren tune the smooth old states riieri croon, and much it means to horse marines, aiid people in the moon. Hut I have heard it sung since days when I was young; and I am wise to. all such guys, for often I've been stung. And so, while others scrap, and yammer, yip '.and yap, J prune my trees and herd my- bees, and keep some smiles on tap.

Vnndenberg. THE (DO.WENTIOX OF 1872 The Democratic National Conven tion of 1872, which assembled in Baltimore on July 9, was K'rhaps " the most unique gathering if la sort in the whole story of the Democrat ic Party. Horace Greely. editor of The New York Tribune, was nomin ated for President on a single ballot in spite of the fact that foi a quarter of a century or more he had bten the Party's most vigorous m;d persistent critic and assailant. j This action resulted ;rom a deniro to unite with so-called "liberal Re publicans" representing pt:tlfia;i fac tions which were dissatisfi ).1 with President. Grant's first term for a variety of reasons. Tries i "liberal Republican in a previom conven tion at Cincinnati, nominated Gree ly on the sixth ballot, after a close contest between this sturdy old New York JournaK.it and Charltis I'mins Adams of Massachusetts (who. if successful would hint- been Hi? third of liis family to ciii'-r the White Koiii. ; When tin1 Democrats :ib?embioil in Baltimovj, they had this Cincinnati! action of the "liberal Republicans" for a guide post, and they followed H from first to last with fidelity. Thomas Jefferson Randolph of Vir ginia was temporary chairman. Sen ator James R. Doolittle of Wisconsin was permanent, chairman. Greeley was nominated for President on a Single ballot with 686 votes, his on ly contenders being Jerenilah S. Black of Pennsylvania with 21 votes, Thomas F, , Bayard, of Delaware, with 16 votes and William S. Groes berk of Ohio with 2 votes. Fpr Vice-President,. B. Grata Brown of .Missouri (previoutly nom inated by the "liberal Republicans" wus similarly elevated oil a single roll-call, with the only dissention centering around John W. Stephen son of Kentucky. The Convention even took the Cin cinnati platform. Including a plunk which straddled the tariff question and refused an endorsement of free trade. Its acceptance was strongly opposed by Senator Bayard of Dela ware, but the vote in favor of it was 670 to 62. The result of the Convention cre ated general Democratic dissatisfac tion, and an effort to nominate a "straight Democratic" ticket culmin ated at Louisville on September 3, 1872. in the nomination of Charles O'Connor of New York (previously nominated by the "Labor Reform Party") for President and John Quincy Adams of Massachusetts for Vice-President. But this latter ticket was never registered in the electoral college at all. Grant was re-elected. Greeley died a few days after the election and the Democratic electors scatter ed their votes without serious at tempt at concentration. The lead ers were Thomas A. Hendricks of In diana (42) and B. Gratz Brown of Missouri (18). Three Georgia el ectors tried still to vote for Greeley but congress rejected their ballots. .THE COXVEXTIOX OF 1870 The Democratic National Conven tion of 1876 assembled June 28, at St. Louis, with Henry Watteraon of Kentucky as temporary chairman and General John A. McClernand of Illinois as permanent chairman. The Convention was deprived of much of its spectacular Interest be cause the Presidential nomination of Samuel J. Tilden, of New York, was generally conceded. Before ever the Convention' met. It was generally granted that Tilden had more than 400 delegates out of the whole con- convention of 744. Two ballots were necessary,- however, to give Tiiden the necessary two-thirds majority, as required by. Democratic National Convention rules. On the first ballot Tilden polled 417, with Thomas A. Hendricks of Indiana in second place (140), fol lowed by General Hancock of Penn sylvania (75), William Allen, Ohio, (50), Thomas F. Bayard of Dela ware (23 Y, and Joel Parker of New Jersey (18). ' On the second ballot, Allen O. Thiirman of Ohio (to be nominated for Vice-President 12 years later) made a brief appear ance; but Tilden, gathering one-half the previous Hendricks vote and a good portion of the Hancock vote, polled 636 and was nominated, the choice being made unanimous, Hen dricks thereupon was unanimously named for second place, though the Indiana delegation protested it did not know whether it would accept. The platform was a long indict ment of previous Republican admin istrations. Ten times vitriolic para graphs began with the phrase, "re form is necessary" and each time a different subject was attacked. While much attention was given the payment of the nation's debts, the resolutions ran the whole gamut of government, and concluded by .say ing "ye demand a change of sys tem, a change of administration, a change of parlies that we may have a change of measures and of men." It was the campaign in which President Hayes was elected by the narrow margin of one electoral vote the. integrity of his victory liolug still historically denied by the Dem ocratic: Party.
