Smith und Hoover declared nominated by acclamation. The retirement of Senator Walsh, with the judicious declara tion that nothing can be done to prevent the New York gov ernor's nomination, makes Smith's victory as certain as anything in polities can be. j ne recent victories 01 moover, in unio and .Massachusetts, ; followed by his tremendous vote L'tali, and his certain triumph in this state, renders his nomina tion at Kansas City equally certain. As n result, both conventions are to be rather dull affairs, merely matters of form; as far as the ultimate results are con cerned, but such is the force of political habit, there is no chance of common sense overcoming the partisan tradition, and the usuul ballyhoos will he staged at Kansas City and Houston) a scheduled. However, those people who wish to take an active part in what, promises to be one of the most exciting presidential cam paigns in recent history, can now make definite plans. This much is certain. The nominees this year will both be men of unusual ability, and well qualified by training and character to administer the affairs of this nation. .Mr. Hoover is one of America s most distinguished citizens, favorably known in every country in the world, with an u, mished record of distinguished iH'complislinuMil , since his first ciilnmcp into imh- i l ; j ' (lovcrnor Smith is not so state; his knowledge and experience in world affairs is limited hut that he is a ntantf excellent, istrative ability, even his political enemies concede. So it can. at least, be assured, whatever the final result in November, that, no "second rater" will reside, in tho White House the next four yearn. As the campaign promises to be unusually bitter and hysterical, as far as the voters are concerned, but that, the two nominees themselves will keep their heads, and preserve their dignity, can be regarded as pertain.
