P. chorus has been so lustily singing for so long. And the note of discord has been sounded in the home state of the president himself. In New Bedford, Mass., the great textile center, a few days ago, approximately 30,000 textile employes in twenty-seve-n mills went on a strike in protest against a ten per cent wage cut In New Bedford, the latest wage cut and strike are likely to bring very severe distress. The community dependent upon textile mills. Because of this distress, radical curtailments in the operation of the city government have already been announced. The Board of Health has announced suppression of dental clinics in the city schools, many of the city employees are being forced to take a month off without pay, and other retrenchments will be 'ordered as the gravity of the situation increases. With the possible exception of agriculture, no industry has been harder hit by than the textile industry in Coolidge prosperity New England. DIVISION INVITES DEFEAT. It would appear as if the Com Belt Farmers are inviting the same condition in the Republican party as that experienced in 1912. In Des Moines last week they went on record in a way that makes it difficult for them to support Hoover, and at the same time it is very liekly to make the Hoover forces determined to prevent the nomination of any man the com belt men desire. The situation may well cause the Smith men to smile and anticipate another split that will allow their men to enter the White At present it seems certain that Smith will be nominated. Raymer Enterprise. Iowa, having turned down her native son, Meredith, and given her vote to A1 Smith for presidential nominee, ought to cool off the rot about Gov. Smiths alleged wetness being important in this campaign. Even Window Seat Jamieson should be able to see that his native state is not to be dragged away from the greatest Democrat of them all. Gov. Smith is going to Jbe nominated like Bryan was at Kansas City, on the first ballot. The country wants him and is going to have him and he is going to be elected, too. After Cool Cal vetoes the Farm Relief and Flood Control Bills, as it is freely predicted he will, no Republican that can be named can carry twelve states in this Union Gunnison Empire. Heflin proposes to put the United States senate through the third degree. After that he will probably go to Italy and try it on the pope. Senator Walsh last week in the senate rebuked Senator Robinson of Indiana for his windy talk about Smith and McAdoo, Walsh saying that whatever faults attached to Smith dishonesty is not one of them. Springfield Herald. Just as the lofty peaks catch the dawn long before its light can flood the plain, so, in an advancing society, there will be, in the earlier stages of every discussion, a minority that is nearer right than any majority."

The official records the personal popularity, the splendid achievements and the unquestioned ability of these two men cause them to stand out head and shoulders above all the leaders In American publla and political life today. On of these men ia Herbert Hoover and the ether Is Al Smith. Destiny may rule that Herbert Hoover and Al Smith may eppoe each other, one as the candidate of bo administered at all times for th the Republican party and one a benefit of ail people and not for MEN historic princi- thoir own party.

' This fact probably the progress ef the churches In tha hut tan yearn had been tha greatest cn record, and that tha church membership waa outstripping population growth. It was only natural that a recession should thoir total membership doubtless would show a vaat Increase. It to quito possible that moro newspaper articles, more radio, addresses of this day on religious topics are supplying a need whloh churches only have supplied heretofore.

Perhaps tho moot lamentable example that modern history afford a qf tha wllUngnsss to chant principle for tho sake of apparent partisan expediency la found In the story of Woodrow Wilson, Henry Cabot Lodge and the League of Nations. Without doubt many Republican friends of the League to Enforce Peace who honestly believed that tha plan of Woodrow Wilson held healing for the nations, war transformed Into feat ef tha League of Nations merely because a president of tbe opposing party bad become th leader of th cause.

However, th record of 1121 waa bad enough whan all factors war taken into consideration, and tha record ef lit! Is not aa good as tha churches would like. Tho membership increase was still aomawhat smaller, proportionately, than tho catlmaud population increase, but th relative difference waa not great. Catholics and Protestants gained in almost tha same ratio, with th ProtoatanU making a Uttlo tho batter record. Thlo may be accounted for in part by th fact that Immigration in past years has bean more generally from Catholio countries, whereas the naw immigration laws have brought u more people from Protests nt countries. The most discouraging thing about tho statistics, from tha viewpoint of th .church, la that they hew slightly more than half tha population without definite church . JPr' Evana, 1. twentieth century would hall him rapturously and follow him aa devotedly as It ballad and followed him aa Its lead: 100 year ago. Senator Fean I suppose tha moat dramatic Incident in that era waa whan, on th throat of South Carolina to aocod. Jackson mad hlo famous proclamation. I think that that state paper. bearing tha name of Livingston, which represent, the opinion of Jackson, Is on of th otrongoat arguments for th perpetuity of this nation that la extant In American history. If I wars called upon to atato what wa, as a nation, ow to Jackson aa a. political leader tha facta would b numerous, th debt would bo great, and the Incidents would not at all b confined to any one decade. Ho wa a very remarkable personality. Admirably work of a groat adapted to th soldier, all of hla Impulses wars In that direction; and yet this wonderful soldier, who would mako ua think of blood and thunder, waa as simple and kind In hla attitude In hla home, and waa aa chivalrous In tha drawing room whar ladle war assembled aa tha moat refined Individual of that or any other time. That beautiful relationship that ia eo well understood between him and tha wlfo makes m think of that remarkable Incident In th life of John Stuart Mill, tho groat philosopher of Britain, who when the helpmate died had her burled In tha yard at the hom eo that every day h could go out and commune with tha beloved on who had gone. I always think of that relationship when I think of Jackson and bin beloved wife. Senator Heflin. Ho dared to meet In open combat tha powerful and arrogant forces of tha United States bank. Tha avaricious money power ef hi time had set up headquarters at tha capitol. Klchola, Biddle, who waa th choaan mouthpiece cf th money lords of hi day. was her with satellites encamped at the rapltol. He waa spending rest sums of money entertaining and Influencing member of the house and senate; h waa tha lord and master of th political situation at th capitol until Jackson appeared on th scene. When Jackeon saw that the money power was not only natlon'a money manipulating th supply and credit to th enrichment of the fow aim to th hurt or th many, ho challenged them to national combat hare In tha capitol. There waa pending in Congress at tha tlm a measure of to th country great Importance and to Jackson's administration, and Nicholas Biddle dared to send word to Jackaon that ufiless ha permitted th bank bill, which would renew the charter of tho United States bank, to bo tied In with th Jackaon measure ho would defeat Jackson's bill. When they bore that message to Jackaon th light of battle biased In hi, eye and he said, "Hava they got pow-- r enough to defeat my hill?'' H waa told that they claimed to have that power, "Well." he said, "that i too much power for any one set h,v ,n thl country, and I wiil taka it from them;'' and h did take it from them. Senator Brookhart. Jc.k.'0.n,, vlctory ,n h econom-I- c flelj to my mind far outranks hla victories on th fieic of battle; and I want to mention specifically he greatest fight Jackson mad. I think Jackaon waa th on and only president of tho United State who. from hi own choice, never did surrender to special in that great office. Even privilege Lincoln wa, compelled to surrender to some extent to tho war profiteer. Washington was aomawhat In sympathy with tha special privilege class of the United States. Roosevelt. who stand cext to Jackaon for hia persistence aealnut them, did In a few instances yield to their power. But Jackeon never did.
