on too late. She should have more

a manner which indicates she has
had vaudeville experience. She cap

Miss Kreegan Is destined for the

is our guess. Miss Kreegan’s two
song hits, “My Home Town in Kan

numbers with the chorus she was
delicious.
Other song hits which were
mighty pleasing were contributed

gets you. Where was Bill just be
fore the election?
If all members of the Tax Re

any if the high lax'cs ate his pants
off. We would make him pay four

MORRISON STRESSES
RECENT MISTAKES OF
DEMORCATIC PARTY
NEW YORK -Governor Cameron
Morrison, of North Carolina, whoso
state in tho last three or four years
has made record-breaking strides
in Internal improvements and the
Increase of educational facilities,
says that tho Democratic party is
better off with its reduced repre
sentation in the Houa* and Senate
at Washington, becauaa it now can
be a minority party In the regular
sense, with no inducement to be lod
Into ill-considered ways by any
radical bloc.
Governor Morrison, ns a member
of the resolutions committee in tho
Democratic National Convention
Inst summer, compelled tho com
mittee tu eliminate a clause con
demning President Coolidgo for
knowledge of and sympathy with
nlloged "crookedness" In the Ilnril-
Ing-Coolldge administration. He
threatened to present a minority re
port unless the 1 1 tack was elimin
ated—and it was ellroiMited.
Governor Morrison and Mir. Mor
rison are at tho Hotel Vanderbilt
and, last week, the Governor Was
in almost daily conference with I
Democratic leaders, some of whom I
wish him to take a leading part in |
a program for the control of tho
organization and the shaping of its
poheies.
‘‘There will be no spectacular re
organization of tlie Democratic par
ty in the nation," said tho gover
nor. "The Democrats now are a
minority party in tho Senate and
House and, with their reduced rep
resentation, they will bo better oft
in the next Congress than they at",
now. in the present Congress, they
are now. In the present Congress,
they were so numerically strong
that, by combining with the extreme
radicals, they frustrated tlie Repub
licans from 'carrying on. ’ This
seemed to some of our Democratic
friends politically advantageous at
the time, but it wan a disadvantage.
They got whipsawed in tho cam
paign on account of it- They beat
the president on tlie Mellon taxa
tion .program and on tlie soldier
bonus. But tho Republicans per
suade the soldiers that they had
not been hurt by Cooildge. and kept,
them in line. At the same time, they
easily convinced business Demo
ocrats that the Democratic party,
in its new alliance with tlie La
Folletto wing, was a menace. Tho
result was that these conservative
Democrats voted in shoals for Cool
: idgi l .
"With Its IRS members in the
House tlie Democrats have a strong
and sufficient minority party. Tho
Republicans have a hard road to
travel in making good with nil Ilia
elements which lent them a hand in
the campaign. While prophecies arc
risky, it seems to me that Congress
for the next four years will give
most nttention to national debt
reduction, taxation and the revi
sion of Ihe tariff.
. PAYS TRIBUTE
I TO BRYAN
"Neither side has any great nut-
I standing leader, like Wilson or
Roosevelt. I am not disparaging
any one. William J. Bryan may not
participate in another national con
vention, but while lie lives ho will
tic the pre-eminent Christ*© states
man, and tho nation owes much to
* ll "What about control of tho Dem
ocratic National Convention and of
tlie next national convention?”
"The control of the convention
four years hence,” said Governor
Morrison "will depend on tho Is
sues developed in Congress. McAdoo
and Smith defeated carh other in
the Madison Square Garden conven
tion. Slid, If they seek political ad
vantage through strictly partisan
tactics, they are likely to meet tho
same fate again. Governor Smith Is
a romantic and popular figure in
American politics. But that, docs not
signify that he could do In the nn
! tion what he has done In a single
state. Any coterie, whether headed
by Tammany Hull, tlie Cook county
Democracy or any other local fac
tor, is likely to get run over In a
national convention unless it pre
sents a program for the good of the
nation and the party ns a whole.
"McAdoo and Smith met head on
at the nightmare convention In tills
city this year, and John W. Davis
was nominated at the best way out
of the tangle. I ant not inclined to
criticize Tammany llail or the Cook
county Democracy. I think that
Tammnny Hall is improving all the
lime. Tho machine pultlcian is apt
to bo ns patriotic and useful aa the
intellectual.”
Reverting to the Republican out
look, Governor Morrison hazarded
the prediction that if the Cooildge
administration gave tho people good
government and business continued
good It would be difficult to dis
lodge the Republicans from power.
