In our political campaigns we
often embrace ways and means
which are absolutely ridiculous.
Any one prominent in party po-
litics issues a statement and all
good party followers believe and
spread this statement without
any further inquiry. The accusa-
tions against the opponent candi-
dates are often absolutely false
and in many cases, were these
accusations true, the candidate
would not be fit to be an officer
of the state or nation. After the
election all this seems to be for-
gotten entirely and the success-
ful candidate is hailed by sup-
porters and opponents as the
greatest man the state or nation
has produced.

political campaigns are carried on

it would be unfair to believe
without question many of the
• party tricks invented to elect a
candidate. In the present na-
tional campaign the Democrats
are accusing the Republicans of
vast monetary funds, large
enough to buy the presidency.
There are some voters, o course,
whose vote may be had for
money; but I believe the general
public in America is above such
corruption. According to the
Republicans, the poor office girls
in United States’ employ at pre-
sent have to contribute $40. a
piece out of their meagre salaries
to swell the Democratic Cam-
paign fund. Those who know
American character, know that
the majority of American girls
would seek a new job before be-
ing coerced into an involuntary
contribution.
Gharges even more ridiculous
than those mentioned above we
sometimes hear. These attribute
Democratic campaign funds to
Germany and Republican cam-
paign funds to Great Britain.
Our country will not be doom-
ed, if either a Republican or De-
mocratic president is elected, the
campaign stories would have you
think thus—but we are approach-
ing an election. Personally I be-
lieve our country will gain by
electing the candidate whose par-
ty repudiates the League of Na-
tions, but I believe also that,
should the candidate of the party
upholding the League of Nations
be elected, we as a nation will
not become the servants of Eu-
rope.
Whenever at this time you hear
or read accusations made against
one party or another, or against
its candidate, make allowances
for the fact that this is election

read altogether different after

nant because a German paper
published in San Antonio con-
tained articles urging German
voters to go into the primaries
to support Joe Bailey, telling
them that they would be free to
vote in November us they pleased.
The editor of this paper, who has
always advised those who do not
expect to vote a Democratic tick-
et to stay out of the Democratic
primaries, and who has acted ac-
cording to that view, considered
those articles as exceedingly un-
wise councel. However it is well
known that the conditions in Tex-
as under the primary law have
brought hundreds of thousands
of voters into the primaries that
were not Democrats, because they
afforded them the only oppor-
tunity to make their influence ।

With this issue of the Standard
begins the fourteenth year of its
existence. The occasion of the
birthday of the paper recalls
many fond recollections to one of
our valued co-workers. In form-
er years when such a birthday
came to pass, the full office force
celebrated. A bouquet of flowers
hung at the office door indicated
to the readers that there would
be no paper for the week. Would
it not be fine, if we could cele-
brate like this today.
The thirteenth year is com-
pleted. The unlucky number,
with a change in editorialship at
that—and one who was absolute-
ly new in the business—and yet
we completed the year and are
still living. More than that, our
list of new subscribers every
month has been quite encourag-
ing, also our merchants have sup-
ported us most splendidly. We
have no cause to complain, on the
contrary we feel very well pleas-
ed with the situation, even if
the price of print paper has in-
creased enormously. Our policy
hereafter as it has been hereto-
fore shall continue to be: “Jus-
tice to all, malice towards none.”
We shall endeavor to print for
our readers a paper that is clean
and fit to be read by the young-
est member of your family, a pa-
per that uses correct and refined
language, both in grammar and
spelling as free front errors as
it is possible to make it, a paper
that is among the best in techni-
cal make up, and carrying a line
of advertisements that we can re-
commend personally to each and
everyone of our readers.
With the magnificient support
extented to us by our reades
and advertisers heretofore, we
hope to continue the life of the
Standard for ever so many more
years, designating it to the great-
est mission of a newspaper, the
upbuilding of its community.

west Texas by granting a spe-
cial service order for fifty ears
a day for sixty days for assign-
ment to lines feeding this terri-
tory. The appeal for coal cars
was made following letters from
coal dealers and consumers at
Amarillo, San Angelo, Lubbock,
Vernon, Abilene, and other west
and northwest Texas cities, and
an appeal from the Texas Coal
Dealers' Association.
A conference was held at Fort
Worth last Friday upon the sug-
gestion of U. B. Yandell, manager
of the organization and service
department of the Texas Cham-
ber of Commerce, which was at-
tended by W. F. Sterley, general
freight and passenger agent of
the Fort Worth and Denver rail-
road, W. C. Kenyon of Amaril-
lo, vice president of the Texas
Coal Dealers’ Association, C. R.
Goodman of Dallas, secretary of
the Texas Coal Dealers’ Associa-
tion, T. P. Barron of the Vernon
Chamber of Commerce, and re-
presentatives of the Colorado and
New Mexico coal fields. Testi-
mony at this meeting was to the
effect that only a few west Tex-
as towns, notably Childress, had
a sufficient supply of coal. Most
of them, including amarillo, Ver-
non, and others of the Panhandle
Plains and upper Red River Val-
ley territory, are hundred of
ears behind their orders.
Following a second conference
at Fort Worth Tuesday, the Tex-
as Chamber of Commerce was as-
sured by H. A. Johnson of Den-
ver, traffic manager of the Colo-
rado & Southern railroad, Mr.

cials, that aid through the inter-

The Seven Mistakes of Life.
1. The delusion that individual
advancement is made by crushing
others.
2. The tendency to worry
about things that can not be
changed.
3. Insisting that a thing is
impossible because we can not do
it.
4. Attempting to compel other
persons to believe and live as we
do.
5. Neglect in developing and
refining the mind by not acquir-
ing the hahit of reading fine li-
terature.
6. Refusing to set aside the
trival that important things may
be done.
7. Failure to establish the ha-
bit of saving money.— Hudsonian.

meant what he said about Bai-
ley in the campaign, and would
have given his vote to Bailey in
November in case of his nomina-
tion, he would have proven de-
void of patriotism in being true
to the pledge on the Democratic
ticket.
Now the “Post” is throwing, a
double fit, because German-Ame-
rican organizations are support-
ing Senator Harding for the pre-
sidency. The “hyphenates” as
he likes to call them since
“Huns” has gone out of vogue
among those who like to appear
a bit sensible, come in for an
amount of abuse and misrepre-
sentation that would have excit-
ed comment even in the palmiest
of organized war propaganda.
Coming from any other source
but the “Post,” a paper whose
management refused to publish
anything about one of the leading
musical organizations of Houston,
one whose membership embraces
many of the most respected citi-
zens of that city, on account of
its German name, a reply might
be necessary. But people in Tex-
as, since “our boys” have come
back from France and from-Ger-
many, do not take easily now to
the campaign of hate conducted
during and even before the war
against citizens who have proven
good Americans from the very
infancy of this republic, also
good neighbors and often valued
friends. If the “Post” is open
to the lessons taught by facts,
after the people of Georgia and
of Maine, two states where the
German element is smallest, have
expressed their views on the
“League” so emphatically, after
the Michiganders have overwhel-
mingly defeated the candidate
who sought to banish German
from the schools and nominated
the man for governor who de-
fended the teaching of German as
necessary among all civilized
peoples, he will at least have
learned that a great portion of
the American nation is opposing
the League of Nations as the
most un-American plan ever
hatched in human brain. He prob-
ably has read that Franklin
Roosevelt recently declared that
to claim one party doctrine as the
only American one is “a delibe-
rate insult to many millions of
good citizens”, and after the
election that Democratic teaching
may prove a comfort to him.-
