ator Harding w|U be moat foolish If

Citations like that from Re-
pabilcsn newspapers could be multi-
plied. Rayi the Detroit free Press:
"The San Prancleco convention haa
ehoaon tha moat formidable candidate
within Ita reach." The Chicago Tri-
bune admit* that "Republican* realise
that they hare aa much of a light on
their haada aa the Democrat! could
prepare for them." Nowhere haa the
diaturhlng effect of the Cox combina-
tion upon the satculatloaa of Republi-
can leaders been more clearly net forth
than by the Waahington correspondent
of the Providence Journal. He wrltea:
"It la aa though the Republican army
waa 'set' for an attack, when suddenly
tha Democrats have launched their of-
fensive upon the Republican flank and
In an uxexpected quarter. The Repub-
licans must quickly change front, alter
their plan of battle at the last minute
and In thla transition risk s great ad-
vantage to the enemy."
One of the first results of his throw-
ing the Republican plan of campaign
Into confualon is the rising demand
that Henator Harding give up the Idea
of a rocking-chair campaign on hie
front porch. The cry Is that be moat
take off hla coat and take the stump
la a doeen different States like any
other candidate forced to fight for hta
party. The amiable Senator waa aba-
ply to receive successive delegattoaa at
Marion and give them rtoeee of ble entil-
ing philosophy of the perch. The vleit-
ors would not he exactly a "surprlae
party." Their coming would be known
long In advance, and the remarks of
their spokesman submitted to the can-
didate, and probably edited by him, so
that hie might not be made the victim
of a Burchardlsm. But the whole af-
fair waa to be suffused with geniality.
It waa to be more or less of a picnic.
And the Marlon Star would have
wound up Its description of the delight-
ful proceedings by saying: "A good
time was enjoyed by all."
Now however, all this Idyllic dream
of rural festivity is to lie changed Into
the stern realities of warfare. The
Tribune demands that Henator Harding
"come out of his entrenchments and
take the aggressive." How can a man
he aggressive on his own front porch?
There he is a host a well as an orator,
and can't hurl 'arf bricks at people
waiting eagerly to take him by the
hand. A man can lie a political "sage"
von his vine-clad porch, but can he be a
"lighter? He can tie all adrlp with the
milk of human kindness among his
neighbors ami guests, but It Is impos-
sible to tblnk of him pouring the re-
quired political vitriol through the let-
tlve-work that shields the porch from
the too fervent westering sun. The
whole conception of a porch campaign
too much suggests a commander lying
In a hammock and sleepily asking the
others to go and do the real fighting.
The indications are now cleor that
8cnator Harding will liave to come off
his porch, figuratively as well as liter-
ally. Sitting or gracefully standing on
a porch, a candidate can abound in
the opinions both of those who are for
and those who are against the League
of Natlona. He can throw one affec-
tionate arm about Senator Johnson and
the other about Mr. Taft. Bat out in
the open, with an opponent prodding
Mm with questions, he will have to
coam down on one side of the fence or
the other. The Republicans admit
that the Domination of (loveroor Cox
will compel them to fight harder than
they had thought would be necessary.
It will also compel them to speak plain-
er. If they are going to be aggressive,
they will have to quit straddling. —New

In making "The Lincoln Highway-
man" Spike was required to do till*
stunt:
Jlmm.v ('louder, the character played
by William Russell, decided to stage a
hold-up In order to prove to a girl and
a federal set-ret service agent that a
highwayman must have courage, and is i
not wholly dependent ou the surprise
of his attack. He drove to a garage. In j
which he installed Danny Murphy, aud
told Danny to send a message to him
by the dog when the car of a secret
service agent, containing the man and
the girl passed along tbe Lincoln High-
way.
As the car passed. Murphy lied the (
note on and sent the dog along. The >
animal went over the hills by a abort j
<ut to Jtuun.v hidden at the roudslde.
As the car approached. Jimmy sent the i
do« out Into the road limping on three i
leg*. The girl In the approaching car i
bad the machine stopped because she
was sympathetic. Tbe pair got out aud
were held up. Tbe dog left on four
perfectly good feet.
Spike was bred in the l.*>ng island ,
Kenneja at Spring Lake. N. J. Hla'
father was a dog with many blue rib-
Isins. Spike himself won two blue rib-
bon as a pup.
