Just where the true remedy lies is
hard to foresee. The single takers
think they have it and they have
much to offer in support of their
theory. They say taxes are not lev

not wealth itself 1t is a sound prin-
ciple and it is regrettable the prin-
ciple has not been in operation all
these years. If it had been the
back to the soil problem would not
be as serious as it is. But whether
the principle should or could be
brought into use at this late day is
al. other question. Strenuous objec-
tions will be raised if the attempt is
made. However we may cruelty the
single takers and later on be forced
te adopt their teachings. The world
often does that way with reformers
1t is very certain though that the
problem of repeopling the farms wil'
not be solved until a way is provided

easier. The way is now open for on

THE WAY BACK Is NOT EASY.

There is great agitation these days
for more agricultural education. A
state wide move is underway to in
terest school children in gardening.
Courses of instruction are being rap
odly established in high schools and
the Oregon Agricultural College is in
high favor as the greatest education
al institution in the state.
This has come about because
thoughtful people realize that the
present generation has been neglect
ing the producing end of the busi-
ness. The tendency is for people to
congregate in cities and to engage in
commerce rather than production. 1t
has brought about serious situation
and there must be relief or the peo-
pie cannot advance as they should
in happiness and prosperity.
Therefore the popularity of agri-
cultural training. Public spirited men
see that something must be done to
send the people back to the soil. They
naturally look to agricultural edu-
cation for the remedy and to a great
extent il is a remedy. Agricultural
training dignifies the industry, shows
the possibilities open to those who
work with both hand and brain and
fits young men for actual farm man
agement.
But everybody knows that the
greatest difficulty connected with the
"back to the land movement is the
difficulty of securing land. City peo-
pie by the thousands and working
men Of families everywhere would
welcome a chance to go back to the
soil. But in this age Of high prices
few salaried men can save much from
their earnings and it takes money &c
buy good farming land. Thus far
those who have gone back to the soil
consist in the main of men who re-
ally did not need to go back but have
done so because able to do it. They
are educated business or professional
men who have seen the trend of the
times and have bought land for specu-
lative or investment purposes. Some
times they live on their lanl. Quite
often they do not. Their interest in
farm realty though helps increase the
price Of land and makes the problem
harder FOR men at whom the move
ment aims-actual workers who
would 90 back to the soil If they

THE PRESIDENCY

According TO the Portland Journal
there is movement on foot to have
a plank inserted in this years plat
form of the republican party pro-
viding for the following:
1. The term is extended to six
years.
.. No person who has been presi-
dent shall be eligible for reelection.
8. No nomination for a president
or vice president shall be made pri-
or to the election of members of the
electoral college.
4. Presidential electors are to be
chosen, one from each congressional
district by. direct vote of the people.
5. The president of the senate shall
exercise the ministerial function OF
opening and counting the votes of the
college.
Commenting on the scheme the
Journal offers the following:
1--WE have the present spectacle OF
president of the United States and
the only living ex-president of the
United States rushing around, per-
scnally securing the country in an
undignified scramble for votes. The
only two living men who have reached
the summit of official position in the
greatest nation on. the globe are
making stump speeches in which,
with only a beginning of the cam
paign made, they are hurting at each
other charges, countercharges, insin-
uations and inuendo, and resorting to
methods that i'll fit the most exalted
office in the world.
"Those who are agitating change
in the presidential tenure have, in
the present extraordinary situation
mighty arguments for their plan.
"The fathers never intended the
presidency to be a prize for which
a president and an ex-president should
''slug each other over the ropes"

Ii. Martin, one of the stenographers
who is accompanying Roosevelt or
his trip, sprang from the auto In
which he sat with the colonel and
others preparatory to driving to
tie meeting place, and overpowered
the would-be murderer. Martin is
an athlete, over six feet tall, and
, holding back the crowd, he picked
! Schrank up as if he were child
carried him to the automobile and
said: Here he is. Look at him
Colonel Roosevelt" Roosevelt, with
out any apparent emotion regarded
the man who had sought to Kill
him. and when the crowd attempted
to wrest the man from Martin S
grasp, it was Roosevelt who calmly
and imperiously waved them BACK,
! and cried, Stop, stop! Do not hurt
him." Schrank was taken in charge
by the police, while Colonel Roose-
welt and his party were driven to
the auditorium where the meeting
was to be held.
Schrank is undoubtedly dement,
ed and his weak mental faculties
were probably excited by the at
tacks made upon Roosevelt to the
extent that he became possessed by
the determination to kill him. lie
admits that he has been trying for
sometime to get an opportunity to
fire the shot that would remove
Roosevelt from the world.
Col Roosevelt was to have spok-
en- at Louisville, Kentucky, Tuesday
evening, but upon being positively
forbidden by his physicians from con
tinuing his journey. he dictated to
Senator Beveridge the following let
, ter to be read at the meeting:
at matters little about me. but
it matters all about the cause we
fight for. If a soldier who happens
to carry the flag is stricken anOth-
er will take it.
..You know that personally did
not want ever to be a candidate for
office again, and you know that on
ly the call that came to the men or
the sixties made me answer it in
our day as they did more nObly in
their day. y
1T is not important whether one
leader lives or dies; it is important
only that the cause shall live and
win. If go down another will take
my place. For always the army is
there. Always the cause is there.
and it is the cause for which the
people care it is the people s cause.
