FRANK PRICE, Agent, Weston, Oregon
COX AM) ROOSEVELT.
The nomination of Cox and Koose
veil pivea the democratic party a
strong ticket and a good fltrhttnR
chance for victory in November.
That Cox is the strongest man who
could have been chosen to head the
ticket i matter of individual
opinion. At all events he was the
choice of an untramelled convention
after many weary hours of balloting.
Inevitably there were party bosses
at San Francisco at Chicago.
But they could only boss certain del
egationsnot the convention. The
White House "dictator" did no dic
tating, although he now asserts his
entire approval of the nominee.
The assertion that Cox is a "wet"
candidate falls fliit. in view of his
opposition to a wet plank in the plat
form. He is the joint nominee- of
both the wet and dry forces at the
convention. This had to be true of
any candidate, since either faction
could have kept the convention dead
locked forever.
Three times elected governor of
the gnat state of Ohio, Cox has a
splendid record of achievement ami
of law enforcement. As president of
the United States he will respect and
enforce tho federal prohibition laws.
This country' W'H continue "bone
dry" despite the groundless fears of
William Jennings Bryan.
As to tho activities of Tammany
which accepted Cox but did not nom
inate him and to whom he owes
nothing if Tammany, we say, is the
tly in the democratic ointment, then
is the entire republican ointment in
the 01.1 Guard fly. Of these evils,
choose ye the least.
The outstanding fuct is that the
League of Nations becomes the great
issue between tho rival parties, and
practically the only issue of conse
quence. Between the candidates,
even, there is little to choose. As a
matter of fact, neither party need bo
ashamed of the head of its ticket.
Cox and Harding are types of suc
cessful, active and sturdy Americans
men who have achieved prominence
both in private- and public life and
are respected and honored by their
fellow citizens. Practical men of
affairs, if not idealists neither arc
they corrupt, selfish nor unprogres
sive could not be, in fact, and reach
the place that is theirs. The two
men are so very much alike, in fact,
that the choice will lie between the
principles they advocate.
If you feci that the United States
is committed to the League of Na
tions and should unite with other
great powers in fostering the won
derful ideal that has sprung from the
war-scourged bosom of Europe, you
will vote for James M. Cox in Nov
ember. If you feel that the United
Sates should "paddle its own canoe"
while classing itself with "Revolu
tionary Mexico, Bolshevik Russia and
Unspeakable Turkey," you will cast
your ballot for Warren G. Harding.

the Knst Oregoiiian handled the
democratic convention in n manner
befitting its itatus as the hct small

Just about the best little predictcr
in tho grain business is Editor
Pickel of Rosenbaum Review, not a
few of whose fivc-dollar-a-year sub
scribers regard him as an oracle.
He makes a close study of the grain
situation, and hits the market nail
on the head with surprising consist
ency and precision. Just about
now around here unusual interest
attaches to Picket' views, as with a
bumper crop in prospect a bumper
price will mean royal returns to the
East End farmer. The Chicago
prophet finds the price outlook en
couraging. He. predicts in his chart
a gradual drop during the fall
months to around $2.25 or $2.30 a
bushel, but a corresponding rise next
spring to an entirely new and unpre
cedented figure, which he character
izes with a question mark. Pickel
is not only a market seer, but as
long ago as last January he foretold
Harding's nomination. He has been
right so often about wheat that
what he prints is given respectful
consideration by a number of lead
ing East End farmers. Should
wheat this fall follow the downward
course he has indicated, these men
will be quite likely to hold for the
spring market.
We have never had an editor as
president of the United States, says
the Orcgonian. Nineteen of our
presidents were lawyers when elect
ed, three were statesmen, two were
soldiers, one was a planter, one a
farmer and one a public official.
None of them had ever been an edi
tor and none was the son of an edi
tor. Two of our presidents have be
come editors, or editorial writers,
after leaving office. Turn about is
fair play; all things come to him
si
The Great Only sneeringly de
scribes it as "A triumph for Tam
many and Alcohol." but then if
somebody else had been nominated It
would have been something else
again.
One thing to be devoutly thankful
for is that we w ill o spared n vocif
croua chorus of g. o. p. yippcra anil
yawpcrs ascribing the democratic
nomination to the "White House autocrat."

We're glad that in any event an
editor will occupy the White House,
having tho utmost confidence that
any man who can run a newspaper
can run tho federal administration.
Kninia Goldpian confesses that she
finds Bolshevism in Russia worse
than capitalism in America. We
knew this, Emma. Tell it to
TroUky.
"It's a league of treason and cove
nant of national death," says Sena
tor Reed whom Missouri has cer
tainly sent to the wrong institution.
Bootleggers arc quoting $2000
per barrel for whiskey, which seems
to go up whenever there is a throat
ful opportunity for it to go down.
While it was a great personal tri
umph, no crowing of the Cox will be
heard in Ohio.
Harding congratulated Cox, and
will have another opportunity to do
so, we wot, in November.

With tho approach of the dry por
tion of the summer months, it is
welt to use every precautionary mea
sure to prevent fires. It is pointed
out that grass and grain fires usual
ly start from carelessnes on the part
of someone. If trash must be burned
at this season, the authorities ad
monish that it must be done in the
safest manner possible, ailn, that all
embers be extinguished by the person
who burns the rubbish.
