MR. M’ADOO “INDIGS”
Coming on the heels of the statement hy General
Pershing that the United States is destined to retrograde
whenever it becomes possible for politicians to acquire of
fice by the large expenditures of money which is equiva*
lent to purchasing it outright, Mr. McAdoo’s indignation
over being called before Senator King, now investigating
an alleged Ariozna slush fund, is hardly in harmony with
the ethics expected of a man who aspires to the Presi
dency. Mr. McAdoo protests against “reputable” peo
ple being brought before the Senate to prove or disprove
charges of corruption. It would be interesting to know if
he considers only the “disreptuable” competent in such
matters.
The great misfortune in connection with political and
other dishonesty is that reputable citizens show too great
apathy and an inclination to shirk their duty as citizens.
From this has grown up the abuses so prevalent in the
courts of the land which have been converted into insti
tutions for the protection of criminals instead of the tri
bunals of blind justice seeking to protect society from the
vicious.
Mr. McAdoo is a very rich man, and that may account
for his attitude and he is building up an alibi for his cam
paign.

looked as subjects for control.
A Philadelphia professor says light travels 186,173
miles per second. Which shows what a pace we are going
these days. The Israelites only made seven miles the first
day in getting out of Egypt.
NewT York reports freezing weather. And yester
day we picked American beauty rosebuds from the park
in front of the Gateway office, where snapdragon, carna'
tions and other blossoms are in bloom.
The Lord Bishop of London wonders how American
manufacturers pay such high wages and make such high
profits. Wait until he buys his wife a gown made from a
silk handkerchief and he’ll learn.
By the way Ferdinand is shouting for Marie to re
turn home, all his socks must be out at the toes and every
dish in the house caked with dried egg and rolled oats.
The world loves a lover, and women love a Her, sc
what are you going to do about it.
If the Hall-Mills murder trial drags out much longer
all of the interested parties will have to finish it in hades,
A mental earthquake is good for a person once in
awhile, shocking ’em out of settled ways.
It’s about that season of the year now when one won
ders what they did with their last summer’s wages.
Whenever a small college licks a great university it’s
just a practice game.
Fliver owners might call upon Mr. Ford to adjust his
five-day week to Alaska’s six-months day.
