Show BOX ELDER NEWS, Brigham n't even rate an invitation to the forest party. In the "Circus ABC's, " the E" is for elephant with not so much as a semicolon for donkey.

There are dissidents across the country, how-eve- r, whose announced aim is to withhold their vote or to write in a symbolic figurehead as a means of protest oer the existing system, candidates, issues, etc. WE SAY to these malcontents that America provides a way to bring change through the existing system and in the channels of our two major parties. Adherence to this system is not only traditional but we believe essential to the continued health and orderly processes of this cou- nty As for the presidential candidates, what more could the attentive American learn about them in this campaign than was not already known? Both Mr. Nixon and Mr. Humphrey have been in the forefront of the body politic for many years. IF WE dont know the temper of them now, then indeed our powers of observation are limited. To those who say the major candidates offer no choice, that they are not the stuff of which presidents are made, may we suggest that you are perhaps overly negative. If you recall, Mr. Nixon eight years ago missed being elected by the slimest of margins. What makes him less qualified now? j AS A MATTER of fact, Mr. Nixon has him-- ( self to he a man of extreme ability who has met the sternest test of political lift. Rising from the ashes of defeat for the governorship of California, he rejected the security of a lucrative law business to stump for other Republicans and to sew todisaster-ou- s gether the seams of a torn GOP after the 1964 election. Battling against the stiff tide of "Nixon cant win," he came on to unite the party and to win the nomination in competition with a talented and prominent field of potental candidates. To our way of thinking, this is the stuff ol men and great leaders are made. which Its for sure that Madison avenue had nothing to do with selecting the animals which stand as symbols for the two major political parties. Can you imagine: Okay, men, weve got to come up with something snappy for the two political parties as animal symbols. Lets all take off together, fly a straight course and come down with something bold, daring and strength." Then somebody in the group pops up with, How about a donkey for the Democrats?" And dont think the elephant is so hot, either, although in the animal world it seems to have more prestige. To get some authentic background material, yours truly conducted a study, using story books at home for resource purposes. Know what found? The elephant gets a better shake. in The Animal For instance, the Orchestra, elephant plays the tuba and is given a solo part. Theres not so much as a plink on the zither for a donkey.
