A QUERY IS ANSWERED 1,1 - i i. nialliTrlhunn tn favor of Voting the Republican ticket straight T This, Bnema (o ba the jxllcy in this cnmutitRn. Tint has caused this . rlght-about-faco?

Ilut now llxo M.-T. has apparently scon ihe error of its. ways, and sounds like lost from tho O. O. P. canipRjgn book. Thcro must bo a reason . '. ... - TICERE is-. It we lo' Round like tho Republican campnign book, our 'valued correspondeut who reifjuosts lhat his name be withheld cant blame it all on a certain nentleinan by the naiwc of Hoover. When the Kcpublieati party did what we lx-garded eight years ago ns impossible, '.iud nominated for the Presidency, a man who represented and represents, the fincsit and best io American public life, reRatvllufcs of all partisan considerations we became an enUiusiastic aiid uncomproniising supporter of that party, and as far as naitional issues are tsoncerued, vo cau be placed in that catcgorv today. ; We haven't jead the Repibliean campaign, book, so we can't judge whether or not our correspondents flatterii.g com parison is warranted. But we !au sa.v, that if any statiiineuts which have appeared uu this eollimn are identit-ai witli any in the aforesaid book, the Republican publicity eommittfc must havo borrowed from us, for . wo have never borrowed from them. . i ' " As to "voting the ticket straight," however, the Mail-Tribune stands precisely where it has always stood and will con tinue to staad as long as it is under its preseut mtuiagcment. This paper is the spokesman- of no party. Its news columns are open equally to the members of all parties, and as far as state and local offices arc concerned, it intends in this cam paign, as it has in all previous campaigns to support those can didates, it believes art betet qualified for the positions to which they aspire, regardless of their party labels. More than that we urge vsll our readers to do likewise. For in our judgment there is nothing moT-e detrimental to good local government than that narrow partisanship, whwh places party above principle, which p'accs the party label a candidate may wear, above his character and attainments. No sensible person denies the necessity of party organiza tion. But there is no more reason why a newspaper should be long exclusively to. one party than a ehurch or a public library. A newspaper should above all else be a "news" paper. It should give its readers the news, of its community and the world, accurately and impartially. And second it should be devoted to whatever it considers is for the betterment of that community. Any newspaper therefore, that fe what politicians call "reg ular" and regardless of conditions or persons, goes down the line every year for every issue that has the party sanction, and for every candidate that wears the. party . label, front dpg catcher to president, can't do either of these things. In any real sense it ceases to be a newspaper and becomes merely a colorless and meaningless party organ. So pur non-partisan, Democratic and what-not friends need not worry about this paper going 100 percent Republican this year. Nor any year. In fact not uhtill ALL the good men, good issues and worth-while principles are in that party, and in no other. . ' ' True at the present rate of O. O P. progression that may some day happen. But when it does, we have an idea we will he playing on something more musical than a Remington type writer. , Communications NEW YORKER ARGE By G. D. Seymour. : 'NEW TORK When Il Progrcs so, .

It is our Information thnt a document, designated a partial re port, but which in fact wet a presentment, was presented to Judgo Thomas, signed by Katie Nf.
