Are they fig u r ing out ways to pull rabbits out of hats in order to stop the band wag on on which Harold Stassen is rolling, or are they beginning to see the the lig h t and have begun planning ways of matching their contender with the Democrat’s choice. The Republican old guard, had up until the Nebraska results, looked upon Stassen as a mere flash in the pan. He just wasn’t right fo r their plans. We wonder if they’ve revised any o f their plans. From this corner it looks as though the majority of the plans need revision. The people need a champion, they are looking fo r a leader. I f the Republicans are looking fo r what the people want they’ll select Stassen. However, if the old guard Republican’s continue along their previously appointed path, they’ll be sure to select someone who could be beaten by a actual lop-eared donkey. The Oregon primaries, which w ill soon be upon us, w ill serve as a good barometer of the Minnesotian’s possibilities for getting the presi dency, if he gets the nomination. The Republican convention this year is going to be a real hullaballo. Election year in America comes but once every four year and i t ’s like an old fashioned Fourth o f July and a circus combined. The main act this year has T a ft, Dewey, Vandenberg, M cA rthur, Warren, and Stassen performing in the center of the ring. So far it ’s been a great show. I f the old guard have their way, however, the main show w ill be anti-climactical to the Republican side show. They’ll present no opposition to the Democratic candidate. . . . un less they change their minds and select Stassen. ★ it ★ The Weather Summer came in with a lighted torch Monday. . . . and it was 10 degrees hotter in Medford, naturally, than in Ashland. One often wonders why those people who live in Medford don’t send their wives and families to the hill stations during the heat of the summer. Ashland would be a very nice hill station, i t ’s a wonderful spot to spend a sum- , mer, cool, pleasant, refreshing breezes, cool water, and nice people.
