POLITICAL SIDESTEPPING.

Politics is a great game, too seri-
GUS for a joke, and yet the humor
OF some phases. Of 1t prOvokes a
smile. Take as an illustration the
present status of the currency re-
form bill. 1t is a clear proposition
that the democrats started in this
session to make campaign material
out of the issue by forcing legisla-
ton that would put the republicans
at a disadvantage In the coming
campaign.
The democrats have been for cur
rency reform, but when the repub-
lican majority recently passed the
Vreeland bill not a democrat voted
for the measure. Artful lodging
has put currency reform in such a
position as to remove 1t from the
realm of real issue in the coming
campaign. Anything the democrats
NAV say about the Vreeland bill will
be offset by the record which places
! the minority in direct opposition to
the reform they talked long to adj
vocate.

HEYYURN FIGHTS DRY FARM
BILL.

The MonaeiI ury farm bill which
recently passed the house and is
now in the senate is made the OBJ
5ect of attack by Senator Hepburn,
who charges that the bill is a land
grabbing measure and II passed by
the senate he wants Idaho excepted
from its provisions.
The Mondell bill provides that
homesteads on nonirrigable, nom
mineral and nontimbered land may
be increased to 800 acres. TO facil-
itate the ultimate passage OF the
hill. the house committee retained
the title of the Smoot bill. which
passed the senate some time ago. but
substituted the provisions of the
Mondell bill for those of the bill
adopted by the senate. Because of
this change the bin went at once to
conference, and the action of yes
4erday was ON the conference re-
port.
AS 1t passed the house the Mon
dell bill requires residence upon me
land and also proof that one-eighth
or the land was under cultivation
the second year and thereafter up to
the time of making Anal proof. The
second Smoot bill waived the resi-
dence requirement where there II
not sufficient water on the land fol
domestic purposes. This provision
WAS eliminated in the house.
Senator Hepburn has opposed the
measure since 1t was introduced
and at one time had Idaho elimi'
mated from the bill. He claims thai
the bill permits one settler to TAKE
$40 acres of nonirrigable land
which, In Idaho, would mean lant
that does not need irrigation, a pro
vision manifestly unfair and no
warranted by the conditions.
