Cumberland SO: tisan to keep "the faithful Demo cratic party workers" from getting but a little over balf the appoint ments. Instances here and there of injustice in tbe management of pub lic affairs are Inherent in the nec essity of depending upon human In strumentalities. But system or party should be judged by It fruits by and large. Getting down to cases, we know, we don't Just '"think" or "believe" or "have information," as does our editorial friend up tbe street, that In one instance, when one of the most important postmas- I terships In this county was to be All ,ed. Democratic applicants were In i formed by our Congressman, a Democrat, that his Influence could not be used and that appointment would be made strictly according to merit. And it was, the man making the highest grade, being appointed. Why give, more examples. We can stage Just as effective an "experi ence meeting" as our office-hungry Republican friends.

In the old, crude daysi One of the most disgraceful and humiliating incidents in our dipio-j matic history was the ill-mannered ; nod untrue diatribe . uttered by George ' Hprvey. who misrepresents' tbe United States at the Court of St. Jumes, at the Pilgrims' dinner In London In et week. It must in-' ilej be embarrassing to the Ad ministration to find thut its Am-1 bassador to Great Britain knows . more phout oyr ideals and policies) than the President, the Secretary of State an;l both houses of Congress. But what else coul 1 they expect fiom Harvey, our champion muck raking Journalistic blatherskite. Listen to his raving: "Finally the question of America's participation in the League came before the peo ple who decided by a majority of Heven millions. It follows then that the present Government could not, without betrayal of its creators and masters, and will not, I assure you, have anything whatsoever to do with the League or any commis sion or 'committee appointed by it or responsible to it, directly or in directly, openly or furtively." Sec ietaries Hughes and Hoover assur ed the voters Just before the elec tion last fall, in tbe fateful letter of the Committee cf Thirty One, that tbe election of Harding did not mean the rejection of the League, but its adoption with reservations. The Secretary of State has already begun negotiations with tbe League Council In regard to tbe island of Yap controversy. Who knows our policy and who is running -the Gov ernment? Harding, Hughes and Hoover at home or Harvey, the self styled American Warwick, in Lon don? So much for Mr. Harvey's mendacity. But the crowning shame of his speech was the in dignity be offered to the brave men und women who fought, suffered, uud in a myriad cases, died. In a glorious caupe and for a noble principle. After in suiting his bouts by referring to "those whose anticipated reward for extolling our altruism is transparently material," he made a final spectacle of himself and bis party associates by insulting the land of hi a birth end its brave sons In the following words: "Not a few remain convinced that we sent our; young soldiers across to save this Kingdom, France and Italy, if hat is not tbe fact. We sent theiq solely to save the United States of America an l most reluct antly and laggardly at that. We were not too proud to fight," what ever that may mean. We were afraid not to fight." He likens our participation In the World War to the desperate cowardly show of re sistance nut up by a raL.when it Is cornered -in iu hole. Will tbe spir its of our heroic dead forgive him? uch fiscal aeronautics was called "inefficiency" and "incompetence." None are so blind as those who will not see. To refute the baseless charges and Insinuations of our Re publican , contemporary that the pontal service under the Wilson Ad ministration was ouanlzej upon a partisan basis, one needs but to re fer to tbe official records of the Postoffice Department.
