ATMOSPHERE OF WORSHIP
WELCOME TO ALL
Week of Talk Forces
Democratic Stock Down
(Coatt2n?d from pate 1)
eryone knew it meant nothing, and
most of them were disgusted.
The cheering for Governor Smith
was pushed to an hour and a half;
half again as long, equally as synthetic
and twice as tedious. Madison
Square Garden was specially packed
for the occasion. It was a great sight
and a foolish one. The demonstrations
for the other candidates were
only better because they were short
er.
The Platform Fight.
Meanwhile the leaders were wrang
ling over the platform. As it was
finally presented, it i* a pretty fair
document, as party platforms go; far
ve*t-r than thet rroduced by the Republicans
at Cleveland. But when
analyzed, it says practically nothing;
it pledges the Democratic Party to
work for the good of the country and
the people.
Two planks were sent t^ thp flon*
of the convention for settlement. On
j the League of Nat ons. th gat f
I lecided for a plank proposing a reI
ferendum. On the Ku Klux Klan,
they decided bv a majority cf one
vote to denounce religious intolerance
without naming the Klan.
Throughout the entire battle, which
lasted until 2 oclock Sunday morning,
hardly any possible blunder was
avoided. The delegates, who left
angry and unhappy, were nearly so
-ad as those who had hoy ed for sc.nothing
really fine from the party.
In politics there are two types we
can admire. We like the man who
stands up fcr a principle an ! does
not care h w many are against him.
Wc like t> man who believes in k .
jiarty anc .dopts an attitude cf inte ligent
expediency, the man who tactfully
bends othirs of differing ideas
to his cwn.
Fatal Blunders.
But on the whole the Democratic
I Convention has produced neither.
[There is nothing of out and cut prinI
ciple. nothing that will attract?nor
repel for that matter?any large body
of voters. That was a blunder of
principle, but it is only nbcut once a
century that we find a man capable
of leading a successful fight on principle,
so that is the lesser blunder.
The greater was the one of exped
u'ncy. 1 ne msi administration h?s
provided the issue of clean government.
The Democratic Party was
Riven the chance to make a fight for
honesty, for common sense. It is
not an issue of principle because
there i? no argument for the other
side, but it was a good political issue.
But the convention threw it overboard.
The campaign managers will
try to recapture it, but the fact will
remain that the men and women who
are supposed to be the leaders and
the flower of the party have made
their biggest fight on an issue of narrow,
bigoted religious intc.erance.
The hardest battle, the great test
of strength was made on the simple
uesvion of whethir or not a secret
ety of doubtful methods and or
aggerated influence should . be named
in. the platform. AH the worst

feelings of intolerance have be;n
arous* d.
A Dark Ho-?r Sure.
That was the blunder in expediency.
A good political issue was scrapped,
or partially so, not for a great \
'principle that would mean ?om thing
in the history of progress, but for a
; mean and petty fight that should nev.
( er have been allowed to arise.
The one thing this fight has accomplished,
besides arousing 'hatred,
has been to almost insure the elimination
of both MeAdoo and Smith
as presid'.nta) possibilities. The animosities
aroused in the Klan battle
are too great to be cured as between
these two nun. MeAdoo has enough
votes to keep smith out; Smith anil
the other violently anti-McAdoo forces
are strong enough to block the
nomination of MeAdoo.
Before a compromise between
these two factions can lie i
iiiaii? iiuuiiigni cumerenccs, many
bollots and much gossip and more
talk have to go into the past. Oat
cf it all will come one dark horse
brigade. Any man's view is as good
as another's in picking the winner.
But if the convention wishes to get
back on the high plane it might have
taken from the start, it could do no
better than to nominal. eSnator
Walsh of Montana. His selection
would put the honeH government issue
in front and would show that the
party is not afraid of the religious
issue.
