Plenty of republican corruption, but democrats must find i oetlcr a a For President of United States ALFRED E. SMITH For Vice President of United States JOSEPH T.

Smith For President Governor Alfred Emanuol Smith. From newsboy on the sidewalks of New York City to four limes chosen governor of New York. Now the democratic nominee for president of the United States, the highest honor this great party has to bestow, convincing. In nominating' Gov. Smith for'president on the first ballot the democratic national convention did itself proud.

And OHIO ESPECIALLY' did itself proud in changing its vote from that favorite son, Atlee Pomerene, to Gov. Smith thus insuring Smith's nomination. The nomination of Gov. Smith as the democratic Mr. L.

Buck, mighty before the Lord, brings front Africa a blue wildcat, first ever dcen by white man, big gorilla specimens of the and cebnuzi monkey tribes, and pigmy mouse as small us a bee. The question arises, were all these interesting creatures in tho Garden of Eden, i whale, dinosaur, flying lizard, i i i chus, kangaroo, giraffe anil Imot Or did they come a a If they were all there, which interested Caiu and Abel most 1 ProbubK thu pigmy mouse, although the boys find no poc-kcts in which to hide it.

His body, the police snid, 7 Tooked like tho top of a salt cellar, so many holes in it." standard bearer is a happy one.

It was the BEST NOMINATION the party could make. Not that Mr. Smith is abler and-has more virtues than many other democrats but because at this particular time he possesses to a greater degree those QUALITIES that crm make for success. When the availability of Gov. Smith is spoken of the average politician would urge him because he wins at elections.

This is not convincing in itself. Franklin D. Roosevelt who nominated Gov. Smith'said: "It is, however, not my belief that I should urge popularity as tho criterion in making our choice. A' HIGHER OBLIGATION falls upon us.

Wo must, first of all, make sure that our nomtneo posscsges the UNUSUAL QUALIFICATIONS called for by tho high office of President of thoso United Mcro party expediency must bo subservient to national good. Wo aro Americans even hoforo we are democrats." Iii presenting Gov. Smith lo the convention Franklin Roosevelt well said: "What sort of president do we need today? A man, I take it, who has FOUR GREAT CHARACTERISTICS, every one of them an essential to the office. First of all LEADERSHIP, articulate, virile willing to bear responsibility, needing no official spokesman to interpret the oracle. Next, EXPERIENCE) that does not guess but knows from long pr.M:»ice the science of governing, whicn is a very different thing from'mere technical bureau organizing.

Then HONESTY--the that hates hypocrisy apt! cannot live with concealment and deceit. Last, and in this time, most vital, that rare ability to MAKE POPULAR GOVERNMENT FUNCTION as it was intended to by the Fathers, to reverse the present trend towards apathy and arouse in the citizenship an active a willingness to reassume its share of responsibility for the nation's progress. So only can we have once more a government not just for the people, but by the people also." Gov. Alfred Smith measures up to every word of this. Mr.

Roosevelt DID NOT OVERSTATE THE CASE A SINGLE WORD. If there is an outstanding characteristic in the public life of Gov. Smith it is his courage to assume positions of right and stick to them. He has an honesty of purpose that appeals to all the people. In addition he has the COURAGE of his convictions.

The platform the democratic convention adopted i.5 satisfactory to Gov. Smith. It declares for law enforcement and mentions tho 18th amendment. And why The 18th amendment is the law of the nation. THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAW IS FUNDAMENTAL; it was not for the democratic party to do other than endorse law enforcement and mention the 18th amendment if anj considerable part of the party wished it 'mentioned.

En dorsing enforcement of the 18th amendment does not ii any way alter the previously stated view of Gov. Smit! that the Volstead Act is a failure and should be changed And even before the convention adjourned Gov. Smitl made it clear, in a telegram to the convention, that 1 he ap proved the platform, would stand four square for law enforcement but would do what he could to alter the pro hibition law to bring it into harmony wifh popular feeling The democratic platform very properly promised th FARMERS PROPER RELIEF. The equalization fe program that some farm politicians tried to fasten on th public is not mentioned in the democratic platform an in this the party is to be congratulated for not falling int a serious error. After going along many years in a frenzied oppos tion to any and all kind of tariff protection the democrat! party had the courage this ynar to approve a tariff prin ciple that will permit EFFECTIVE COMPETITION, insure monopoly and at the same time produce a fair revenue for the support of Government.

Actual difference between the cost of production at homo and abroad, will adequate SAFEGUARD FOB THE WAGE of the American laborer, must he the nxtrcme measure of every tariff rate."
