And this) is frco und democratic America!" . llo-llum. Well,' and why not? This is u Democracy and a lie iinbjic politically administered by parties. At the recent Presiden tial election the Ainericuu people, by au overwhelming majority, voted to place this government under the control of l'rcsident Coolidgc as the leader of the Kepublican party. The people emphatically declared they believed in President Coolidgc and his policies and wanted them carried out. But Mr. La Follctte and his followers declare they do not believe in Presi dent Coolidgc and his policies and do not want them carried out. In short, they oppose the first principle of freedom and Democracy, which is popular rule. " . ' ' Such an attitude as La Follctte shows therefore, does uot appeal to us as either good sportsmanship, good politics or common ' hcukc. Political parties are entirely artificial organizations, the mem bership constantly changing, as the principles and individual opin ions change. i ' Senator Lit Follctte and his followers have not been read out of the Republican party, they liave deserted it. Such desertion, we do not condemn, for if a person ceases to believe in the principles of a political party, such a person should withdraw, both in justice to that party and to himself. What wo do condemn, and what we can't understand, on any basis of good sense or good morals, is for an individual to desert his party and work for its defeat, and still pretend to be a member of the party, and insist upon receiving political benefits from it, If La Follctte and his followers wish to be Republicans, let them act liko Republicans. Jf they don't wish to be, let them withdraw, and form a party of their own, or support some party in which they do believe. Hut above all, let them stop fighting the Republican party on one hand and then wailing because they are treated as opponents on the other. Such an attitude would be iniquitous if it were not so childish. . b Lttliri Should b. brl.f Hid Wrilt.n In ink. OtMlna la lh l.rna numtaar at lHr. ..naltftil. nnl a f.w can b. amw.r.d hr.
