NEW YORK REPUBLICANS DECLARE
INDEPENDENCE FROM ANTI
SALOON LEAGUE.
""'.lie ftepcbllcan Exuutive Committee for the State '•
of New York ut the first meeting held since the elec- 1
tion last year when the Democratic ticket was sue- 1
ee.ssful decided that there will be no Republican con- 1
vention in that Slate this year provided the Demo
ciatle nominee for number of the Court of Appeals to '
ftiecc.ed Judge Hogan shall be satisfactory. If the *
Lemuelatic nominee proves satisfactory it is proposed toj
l ave another meeting <,l the executive Committee | '
far the purpose of endorsing him. This will not be (
exactly a new procedure in New York, for Democrats|l
hnd Republicans have frequently agreed upon can-j
didates for ihe Court of Appeals. So frequently lias
this be. n done that the highest court of the Empire
Stale may be said to have been removed from partisan I
politics by the two major parties.
Rut another action of the committee is exc iting
a good deal cf comment, and that is its practical j
declaration pf independence from the Anti-Saloon i,
League. The declaration read:
The nomination for Governor in lh:M is |
a matter which will be fully and ably al- i
tendid to by tile delegates which will be t
elected at tbe primary in September, 19 24. c
The Republican State Convention of the
State oi New York will not submit to die- ji
tation from any bloc or association. ,;(
The declaration, it was admitted, was made in|l
response to1 a letter to Chariman Morris of the Ex-! I
ecutive Committee from William li. Anderson, head! I
ol tlie Anii-Saku n League in Now York, in which a
he placed a ban on Theodore Roosevelt and Speaker'f
H Kdiqund Machold as possible gubernatorial cun- t
didatex. . Mr. Anderson declared they were both wet £
and would net be satisfactory as candidates. Mr. Mor- *
lls’ committee answered the letter by the declaration t
r.s given. t
The committee also decided to give women the 1
same representation in tlie Republican Party that the
Democratic Party lias, accorded thorn.
AMERICANS WILL WIN OLYMPIAN
GAMES?
American ^.porting writers who liave toured Europe ^
r.iu\ European athletic critics agree that the United t1
States: it; alnu.it certain to win the track and field!*
champion chip or the world again at the Olympian'1
t ames in Paris next year. This statement is made ,
utter a complete survey lias be n made of the Bcau-It
dinavian and Finland athletes, and, strange as it may a
cunt, there, rather than Great Britain and Francois
and Germany, was where uncertainty was felt. jl
It is expeettd that the American 1924 team will-8
be w'eaker in seme points than it was in 1920 but it.1
will be stronger in others. Charles W. Paddock, who! v
has just made a tour of Europe and completed a sur- j *
vey of the timber that will compete with the Araeri- ,,
cans, writing ft .nil Berlin, rays if the American team'
next year is within fifty points of the one we had in n
1920 he feels that he cr.n say conservatively tliatll
America will win. •> k
However, there ir tli.it old saying about counting *
chickens betore they are hatched. American athletes
vill do well ir they take nothing for granted, and 1
prepare tor the ineM as though one more point were ^
needed to give them victory. j ^

EMOTIONAL HYSTERICS. .
j
An editorial signed by Senator Capper and ap
pearing in various Capper publications says:
New York has turned rebr-I. Led by its
Governor, sworn t.> uphold the Constitution
of the United States, (he Empire State, so
called, i attempting to impose its will on 47
other State.-.
The pro-wet, vice-ridden cities of New
York, want booze. Dominating the Legisla
ture. they obtained the pasasge of u hill re
pealing the State prohibition enforcement
law. Governor Smith, an avowed wet, signed
it, plaenig t lie Slate in virtual rebellion
againts the Federal Government.
By the action of the Governor and lurg
1. latlire, the ctiir.cns of New York, self
respecting though most of them are, have
had their good name debauched and the
proud escutcheon of the State itself is smear
ed with filth.
New York cannot oust prohibition. The
Government should hummer down the lid so
tight that not a drop will escape. Rebellion
was not tolerated In the South, neither should
it be tolerated in the North.
The politicians of New York must be
taught respect for government, something
they never will ioHrn if they listen to the
vc.lco of boor.*. They cannot defeat pro
hibition. The Constitution will not be
changtd and its- provisions will be enforced,
whether Governor Smith and the • wet" Leg
islature want enforcement or not.
Or .Vo! New York is not attempting to impose its
will on the ether States. She has not turned rebel.
She has net eceeded. She has exercised a right which
w»i jfata^Ipd by the sovelgn States wln*n crt^ln
'flfhu’w^re sraated to the Federal Government. She

is simply attending to lier own business under the
Constitution.
Senator Capper is the belllgerant. He is the one
who would impose tlie Ideas of the people of other
States on New York lie is the one who talks coer
sion -government by force. He Is the one who Would
force others to worship at his shrine, whether they
like it or not.
But of course, Senator Capper is only giving an
exhibition of the emotional hysterics which of recent
years have been characteristic, in sectiout of the United
States when political or social matieis are' discussed.
It is such talk that gives birth to Ku Kitty Klan
organizations and such out hurts that caused Theodore
Roosevelt, the Junior, to say that America needs mote
tolerance.
ELECTIONS THAT MAY HE PROPHETIC.
The elections this month for a Senator in Min
nesota and a Congressman in the Spokane district of
Washington will he straws tiiat will not be without
prophetic elements as to the Northwest. In Minne
sota the contest will be between the radical Non
Partisan League and the Republicans while tn Wash
ington the fight will he between the Democrats and
the Republicans. The Democrats are expected to he
third in the Minnesota contest and the. radicals third
in that in Washington. In both of the contests all
of the parties have put up strong candidates.
Governor I’retts of Minnesota, who got Ilia Re
publican nomination in that State, is reckoned ar a
Conservative, a protege of the late Senator Nelson.!
Ho defeated his Non-Partisan League opponent for
Governor by 14,000 last fall, and the two are run
ning against each other again Isr the Senate.
State Senator Charles Myers who apparently has
won the Republican nomination for Congress in the'
Spokane district by a plurality of It re than a dozen
is a "stand pat’' Republican. He defeated Thomas
Corckery, who was a Roosevelt rupporter in 1!<12
and a supporter of Senator Poindexter until the
lust campaign, Corckery is u member of the Com
mission which Is governing Spokane. Myers is
an old fashioned Republican of the McKinley type.
Opposing State Senator Myers Is Judge Sum B.
Hill, who was the Democratic nominee for Congress
In 1H22, and who came within il.OOO votes of Judge
Webster. Judge Hill is a good campaigner, and lie
will have the active support of Senator Dill, who
carried every county in the Fifth Congressional Dis
trict in his race for Senator last fall.
’West Point Wipes Out Enmities.
(New York Herald.)
The names of two of the successful candidates for1
admission to tho United States Military Academy,1
Wttt Point, next July, arc Frederick Funston and
Emilio Aguinaldo. The names of these two youths
are the same as their fathers—two men who twenty
years ago were the most dramatically interesting
figures in the war in the Philippine’ Islands. Don I
Aguinaldo, the leader of the Filipino insurreotion j
against the Americans, and Major-General Funston [
of the United States Army, his captor.
The capture of Aguinaldo was the most brilliant'
act of Funston's career. Alter a year's service in the]
Unban insurgent army he hud been sent /to Ithej*
United States wounded. As commander of the Twen-!
lieth Kansas Infantry he went to the Philippines.!
He had already won his brigadier-generalship and
medal of honor when he organized the expedition to!
find Aguinaldo. He went into the mountains, where i
the Filipino leader hud his headquarters, with only I
a small number of white comrades nad the help of
a native force. Ho made Aguinaldo a prisoner and
escaped with him to the American lines. The cap
ture of the leader- was the beginning of the end of:
the Filipino insurrection.
Aguinaldo has become one of the wealthy men of
the Philippines. After the insurrection he devoted!
himself to the scientific study of sugar raising and
applied his: methods to the cultivation of his planta
ticns.. His son received Ills appointment under the!
law providing for the selection of one Filipino a
year to be trained for service use an officer of Philip-1
pine Scouts. Young Funston is an appointee "at'
latge, having been choeen by President Harding
in accordance with the custom of naming as cadets'
runs ot high army officers who desire to follow the
profession of their fathers.
The United States has furnished many instances!
where the descendants of men who had fought!
against each other in war became fellow students!
at tlu- military academy. There were few if any in-1
stances where the sons of -Northern and Southern
leaders mot as students at West Point. General Dee's!
son, George Washington Uustls Dee, entered the 1
academy in 1850 and was in tho army before the
war began. General Grant's son, Frederick Dent
Grant, entered the academy in 1866 and was gradu
ated in 1871. At that time Southern army families
wcio uiinost without representation at West Point.
It was later In tho '70s and in the '80s that the
name.", of those families begun to be on the rolls of
ibe academy. Along with the names of such well
known Northern army families us tho Caseys. Hunts,
Gillmores and Sturgises there appeared those of
Southern families of Bees, Alletons, Bucks and Bul
lards. u 18t)8. just fifty years after the name first

The reason most of us never have

such poor judgment.
We have noticed when her face I

things held on while they powder I
their noses and fix tlieir hair.
A wife’s idea of forgiving and for-1
getting is to fhrbW it up to friend !
husband every time she gets sore j
at him.
A man may not know what to do
with all the forks on the table, hut
he never is in any doubt about the
glasses if It is that kind of a din
ner.
The reason why a wife hates to
have her husband get sick is be
cause he always thinks the whole
family should suffer with him.
The trouble with a girl marrying
to please her family is that she so
seldom pleases herself when she does.
Sometime, between now and the
middle of summer, friend wife is go-!
ing to let friend husband know where:
they are goinfc to spend their vatia-!
tion.
Sometimes we think fathers would
not mind their daughters spending
so much on clothes if the dear
things only would get a little more
for their money.
