(Editor's Note:-This is the secondI instalment of a series of short arti-I cles covering the lives and principlest of the presidential candidates who will be balloted upon at the campus straw Pote Thursday. Wherever pos-f sible, a faculty supporter of the can-3 didate has been secured to write his story: otherwise The Daily has com-f piled the data. Johnson, Lowden, Pershing, Palmer, and Edwards are today's candidates.) JOHNSON Senator Hiram Johnson, of Califor-l nia, was born in Sacramento, Calif., Sept. 2, 1866. He was educated at thel University of California, leaving in his, junior year. He began as a shorthand reporter, then studied law in his fa-l ther's office, and was admitted to the bar in 1888. He removed to San Fran- cisco in 1902, where he was a member of the staff of prosecuting attorneys in the boodling uases, involving lead- ing city officials and almost all pub- lic utility corporations in San Fran-; cisco. In 1908 he was selected to take; the place of Francis J. Heney, after the latter was shot down in court while prosecuting Abe Ruef for brib- ery, and secured conviction of Ruef. He was governor of California from 1911 to 1915, and was re-elected for 1915-1919, resigning in 1917 to become United States senator for the term 1917-1923. He was a founder of the Progressive party, in 1912, and ran for vice-president on that ticket. Before and during the war he fought for the preservation of free speec and a free press. He demanded that the American expedition be withdrawn, from Russia, on the grounds that it{ was a futile and bloody adventure, and a reversal of allied Russian pol- icy. He became the arch-opponent of the League of Nations, contending that it is "a gigantic armed trust. * * * wherein a few men sitting in secret may control the economic des- tinies of peoples." He maintained that injust settlements perpetuated by the League "contained the seeds of many wars." He has not been fond of reformation schemes, but of practi- cal measures, as instanced by his much-quoted utterance, "When I am governor of California, I will drive the Southern Pacific Railroad com- pany out of every inch of power in the politics of the state." PALMER A. Mitchell Palmer, Democratic candidate, was born at Moosehead, Pa.; May 4, 1872. He graduated with highest honors at Swarthmore in 1891, was admitted to the bar in 1893, and has since practiced law in Strouds- burg, Pa. He is interested in a num- ber of business enterprises. He serv- ed in congress from 1909-1915. He was a judge of the U. S. Court of Claims in 1915, and in 1917 was ap- pointed by President Wilson as alien property custodian under the 'Trading with the Enemy Act,' 'in which capac- ity he has acted during and since the war. He was a member of the execu- tive committee in the Democratic na- tional convention in 1912. Palmer's platform is that of support to every phase of the Wilson adminis- tration. Known as "the fighting Quaker" because of his religious be- lief and belligerent qualities, he was offered the post of secretary of war in the original Wilson cabinet. He was elected to congress from the Bethlehem Steel mills district, wrote the iron and steel schedule of the Underwood Tariff bill, and then fought the forces of Charles M. Schwab and the other steel magnates and won re- election. His re-organization of the Democratic party of Pennsylvania was a large factor, in the nomination of Wilson for the presidency. His cam- paign against the Bolsheviki and sup- port of deportation in the "Soviet Ark" is well known. He favors a spir- it of internationalism as brought out in the League; better labor condi- tions, publicity for the issues in in- dustrial disputes, and the checking of the high cost of living. EDWARDS Edward I. Edwards, Democratic candidate, about whom "Who's Who" gives no information, won the " gov- ernorship of New Jersey in 1919 by a 14,000 majority after he had pledged himself to keep the state as wet as possible in spite of the nationwide pro- hibition amendment. He stated in Here 's Information On Johnson, Edwards, Lowden, Pershing, Palmer his platform that he "would use all lawful methtods to preserve inviolate the sovereignty of the people." His candidacy in the presidential contest is mainly a protest against the adoption of the prohibition amend- ment, and he hopes to rally in his favor all those who wish its repeal or a less stringent application of its pro- visions. LOWDEN (By Regent Junius E. Beal) The United States and its people are having an 'argy of spending money. Currency and credits are tremendous- ly inflated. The capital is crowded with a horde of salary-drawers step- ping on each others' heels until they have to put them in their desks for safety to heels and corns. Now what do we most need in a president? Is it not one who pro- poses to put a business administra- tion into force, with 'a budget; who will cut off useless boards, bureaus and commissions; who will retrench so taxes may be cut down? That must be done first, and it will take a strong man to do it-a man unafraid, skilled, diplomatic, and re- sourceful in meeting arguments that it cannot be done. He must be ex- perienced in that sort of thing, of ad- minstrative ability already shown so it can be recognized and relied upon by all. This points " unerringly to Frank 0. Lowden, Republican candidate dnd the great war governor of oui neigh- bor, Illinois. That is what he did for his state as soon as the war was over, in cutting down taxes by $8,000,- 000 and dropping 125 boards and, commissions. That was a brave thing to do when all those board members might have been welded in- to a mighty political machine for himself. Frank O. Lowden's candidacy strong- ly appeals to college men who like to" see a lad win out in fighting for his college education. It appeals to Michi- gan more especially because years ago he gave the foundation for the Northern Oratorical league, which prize Michigan men have been win- ning oftener than any of the other universities. His record is clean, his ability is proven, his courage is unquestioned, his fitness is unusual, his experience on the farm, in teaching, in law, in governing, in statecraft,. all combine to make him such that one need not look further for a president to follow McKinley, Roosevelt and Taft.

STATE UNIVERSITY DEANS HOLD MEETING IN ANN A PERSHING (By Capt. John P. Lucas) General John J. mander in chief of1 peditionary forces . Pershing, com- the American Ex- and Republican presidential candidate, was born in Missouri in 1860 and was graduated from the United States Military acad- emy in 1886. Throughout his service he has been, as per the army term, ' field soldier," which is simply another way of saying that he has consistently sought active service whenever active service was to be had. Thus' we find him' taking part under Crook and Miles, those famous old. Indian fighters, in the Geronimo and Sitting Bull campaigns of the late eighties. In the former, under-Miles, he was mentioned in dis- patches for marching his troop 140 miles in 46 hours and bringing it in with every animal in good condition. Pershing's most distinguished serv- ice, prior to the World War, was rend- ered in the Moro provinces of the Phil- ippines. He spent a number of years in command of these provinces and succeeded, by the judicial use of the sword and statesmanship, in bring- ing them to a proper sense of respect for the American flag and of loyalty to our government, something that the Spaniards could not do during all their years of occupation.
