OEILK (Si BROTHER ElIIIMY, (RTOBEIt I. I tKO. KEI'l IU H AN IMXWSISTEM'Y Wit a Congressman Kess shouting to his northern auuiencts that ue "south's in the saddle." and Mr. John Parker, the republican nominee for governor, telling h.s follow Norili Carolinian thai the government ha Ignored the south, we nay well Joiu In the poet's retrain, "cousistenty thou art a Jewel.' ' The south is ignored! There is Josephus Danitls and David Frank lin Houston, boih natives ot ih.s tale, iu the cabinet. 10 say nothi.i Of the scores of other southerners holding Important portfolios; an.. there is the federul reserve and farm loan banks, established by a demo cratic administration, two legislative achievements that have meant more to the south than all the legislation ever passed under all of the re publican adminstratious combined. Surely, in this instance. Mr. l'arker has made an unguarded statement. Again we find evidences of incon sistency. Northern republicans for months have been berating the demo cratic administration for its refusal to set a price on cotton, jet Mr. rarker. arguing for support for the same ticket, is trying to lure the votes of unsuspecting democrats by promising Deuer prices tor irieu cotton under republican rule. If Mr. Tarker Is risht, then the northern republicans are wrong; if the north ern republicans are right, then Farker Is wrong. His party, if suc cessful in the general election, can not carry out two wholly dii.rie... pledges. And In his eloquent portrayal of panicky conditions in the Sourri fol lowing the declaration of war in Eu rope, Mr. Parker failed to tell his Wentworth audience about Secretary ilcAdoo placing the entire resources of the Federal treasury at the dis posal of the South, and how this ac tion saved thousands from bankrupt cy. Would the government under a ripublican aUmiuistratioii do this? It would not. The south can hope for nothing under a republican administration. If Senator Harding is elected, we ttlay expect his party to vent eight years of accumulated wrath upon uie south, its institutions, and its lead ers; we have reason to anticipate re strictions being placed upon the farm loan and federal reserve hanks by "Boss" Ten rose and his motly crew of Wall street speculators and treaty wreckers; and we may expect a revision of the tariff, a procedure that will work a distinct detriment to tho South. It is a rosy picture that Mr. l'arker paints, but his al luring promises will never be fulfill ed. We are going to experience some dreary days during the next four years If his party is successful in November.

Our contemporary submits no evidence In support of Its assertion, and until It does we will be content to belitve that Us editor Is still piqued over the results of the dtiuo tratic primary. That letter was batched in the brain of some neiiro woman "reformer," probably of Northern birth; at least the evidence points in this direction. In our opinion, r.o sane politician, in either the republican or democratic party, had an t hin to do wiih it. The Home should produce proof if it ex pects democrats to believe such a ri diculous charge. VOTi; IS OIll.NiATION. Hov can a woman, familiar with the 2. 000-odd year fight for suffrage, hold the vote in light esteem? Men have died, and wars have been fought for Ihis privilege; and to secure equal suffrage a courageous band of women have struggled Incessantly for a century or moie. The vote is glorious privilege; a privilege which every citizen should be proud to exercise. To remain away from the polls is unpatriotic; It is not be coming a good citizenship, and It U shirking an obligation which Is ex pected of every real American. The registration books are open, and The Journal expects every woman to fully measure up to her duty. Why some men and women, within a stone's throw of the registration books, refuse to register Is doubly hard to understand when we read In the papers that Americans are flock ing home from Pari. London, and the four quarters of the globe for the sole purpose of voting In the general flection. Since It is evident that the ami saloon league would rather see M. Harding elected prosdoit than Mr. Cox, democrats have an excuse tor discontinuing their contributions to this organization.
