POLITICS OVER,
LET'S GET BUSY
Despite the best efforts of the
"spell-binders"• of all pmies, and
articularly the persistent button-
oling of the third party leaders, not
a great deal of interest could be
worked up in the campaign just
closed, The reason is quite apparent,
if it was not before,that on the
general proposition the voters had
already made up their minds' to
change national administration on
the one hand, and on the other that
they did not intend to turn it over
to the radical elements that sought
their turn in exploiting the country
for the benefit of the so-called "pro-
letariat."
The decision ef the voters the
country over seems most emphatic,
perhaps more so than ever in hmtory,
mar.mg a severe rebuke for every-
thing Democratic during the past four
years. Whatever else we may think
as individuals it will be agreed that
the mass of the electorate has de-
creed that the present administration
has failed to measure up to its re-
sponsibilities and has proven a mis-
erable failure during a critical period.
President Wilson has proven himself
impractical; his cabinet is lacking in
strong minds even if ,its advice was
asked, and'the affairs of the nation
have suffered greatly for lack of at-
tention luring the illness of the
Prcident when its responsibilities
should have been placed on others.
Many sterling party men could not
condone the long record of failure,
anti were silent.
While such an overwhelming vote
might be Considered as the final re-
jection of any form of league with
other nations--certainly the Wilson
League, we doubt that there was any
)oaramount issue, and may well leave
our next President, Harding, and
such able akivisgrs a he will surely
call to his aid to frame a covenafit
THE RADICAL VOTE'

radical and unsafe ideas, or are easily
swayed by a smooth line of talk.
Many of those who were fooled this
time will not get caught again soon,
what the election has not taught
them they will discover later on, and
the next organizer will have a hard
time separating them from their
money on any sort of scheme that
listens well but won't stand for
analysis.
If there is anything in the Farmer-
Labor platform of value to the farm-
ers, and not already law, the next
legislature, which is heavily Republi-
cans, will doubtless give it 'conshler-
ation. But against the dangerous
ideas put forth by any wing of the
unholy combination the safe and sane
people will ever take issue. It is
unfocunate for the new party that
:its worst elements came to the sur-
face in the scramble for office and
discredited the movement at the out-
set.
Following his marriage to Mrs.
Nettle G. Knowles of Los Anglees,
Karl Gustaf Nelson, a Bremerton
pipe fitter, made his last will and
testament last week. The instrumeut
provides for the Nelson home for son
writers to be built on Harstine Islano,
If our Farmer-Labor friends really
thought they would carry the state
or the county for their candidates
they are probably more disappointed
over the election than are the Dem-
ocrats, who never had any real hopes
about winning this year. The Far-
met-Labor combination cast about
one-fourth .of the votes in Mason
County, and made a somewhat better
showing than the Democrats. Of
course, the totals show a heavy Re-
publican vote, more or less Of which
has come from those of other parties
who desired to put their votes where
they could be sure to count against
the radicals.
The vote for the Farmer-Labor
candidates indicates about the total
strength which the radicals can galn ltie, Nelson will cast the deciding
in any election. About that many vote. If candidates outside trie
voters are more or less inclined to i state of Washington enter the con-
test, similar juries will be appointed
in the candidates own state. Prefer-
ence will be given to self supporting
