THE VERDICT.
The people of the United State*
have delivered their verdict in a sort
of avalanche of vole- for Mr Hard
ing and the republican candidate*.
Excuse* or explanation« for the
overwhelming defeat la beyond the
ability of democrat« to explain. We
have met the enemy in the battle of
ballot« and in the language of some-
body, "we are hia'n.’*
But «ome tenable reaaon« may tie
offered for the tremendou« change
of political rentiment, chief of which
1« the colossal expenditure*, much
of which wt-med »hoer waste, of the
late war. and our republican friend«
used it for all and more than it was
worth a * a c*m|»nign issue.
Then our refusal to enter the
league <>f nation* placed u* in the
attitude of bring a friend to Germ
any
Because a republican senate
caused our refusal to enter the
league every pro-German in the
country voted the G. O. P. ticket.
Newspapers in Germany are chor
tling in great glee over the defeat
of the democrats tiecause they re
gard American democrats, under
the l«-«d of President Wilson, as
their enrmv and the republican par
ty a« their friend.
Another leading reason is repub-!
(leans were well orgnnized and had '
plenty of money, while democrats,
had neither organisation nor money
of much consequence
Democrats
were generally apathetic. Of course
the Wilson administration was un
mercifully criticised.
Just how the other nations of the
world will consider the overwhelm
ing election of Harding is the ques
tion.
We know that Germany regards
the defeat of Wilson and his »ar
ty almost as a German victory
Other nations which have signed
the treaty and league, feeling that
the United State* was the prime
mover for the league, will certainly
place us now as an enemy to the
proposition. They will feel that we
have | layed a sort of bunco game
on them in inducing them to sign
the league and then to refuse to do
so ourselves.
They will wonder what we have
up our national sleeve and will be
slow to join us in any move looking
towards world's peace. They will
probably require the U. 8. to sign
first and for the signature to be
ratified before they obligate them
selves in any way.
Whatever the reason, we have
lost our leading position in world
diplomacy and we will find it more
difficult in the future to get other
nations to join in movement* for the
betterment of mank<nd.
Mr. Harding will be president
after the 4th of March next, and it
is our duty as citixem to support
him loyally and help to make his nave taken a tumble.

Nor will the American people a feat hitherto unknown in Ameri

bly meant the word "normalcy” to
mean.
The American people are
forward looking and will not will
ingly surrender the beneficent laws
enacted during the Wilson adminis
tration. The old guard, or react
ionaries of his i«arty, will demand
the repeal of progressive measures, j
passed under Wilson. They will de
mand a literal returnt i "normalcy”
or to conditions which prevailed

prior to the election of Wilson and
a democratic congress.
So we repeat that Mr. Harding
will take on a very tough job when
he becomes president. He may ex

Of
course some of them should lie re

seemed to require their enactment
do not exist now. and doubtless
some will be repealed at the comiqg
short session of congress and I'resi-
dent Wilson will sign the repealing
