At WHITE HOUSE
PRESIDENT MAKES TT KNOWN
THERE rs NO DISAGREEMENT
BETWEEN THEN.
TO DEAL PATRONAGE
NATIONAL CHAIRMAN WILL BE
ABLE no FULFILL PROMISES
MADE BY HIM IN THE
CAMPAIGN.
o DEAL. PATRONAGE

WASHINGTON, March 15.-Con-
vtncing evidence was given at the
White House today of President VIII
reports that there has been a dis
agreement or a misunderstanding OF
any sort between him and National
Chairman William F. McCombs
Mr.. McComhs held a long confer
ence with the president in regard
to patronage matters, and after 1T was
over the formal announcement was
made at the White House that the
talk between the president and Mr.
McCombs had been most agreeable.
and satisfactory.
In addition 10 this, however. /. was
made knowrf1Ht the White House that
the president had appointed .ex-Gov-
ernor Burke. of North Dakota, treas
Nrer OF the United States, upon Mr.,
McComb's recommendation.
MeCombs Has Weight.
The fact that the White House was
glad TO acknowledge that Mr.. Burke
had the support of the national chair
man was Immediately accepted by
political Observers a plain intima-
ton from the White House that Mr.
McCombs' voice was to be consld-
cradle weight in the dispensing OF
federal patronage.
Reports that the national chairman
had made certain patronage promises
back in the campaign which he was
unable to get the new president TO full
fill have been the basis Of most Of the
rumors of differences between Mr..
Wilson and his national chairman. 1t
can be said, however, that there is
absolutely no disagreement between the
president and Mr.. McCombs. and that
he will be consulted in regard to many
appointments.
There is good reason to believe Mr.,
McCombs, If he does not accept the
enthusiastically to France, which now
seems certain, will have a good deal
10 say in regard to federal patronage
in New York State.
While Senator OGorman's recon-
mendations will carry. great weight
with the administration, ii is under
stood President Wilson. in New York,
as we'll as in other States, will have
independent sources of information in
regard TO appointments. He Will call
on these indepndent sources to assist
him in checking up on the candidates
that are recommended for office by
members eff congress. II is believed
that Mr. McComhs will be one of the
men to whom the president Will look
in New York State.

THE STATE AUTHORITIES
SHOULD ACT

The farmers of Canyon county are
confronted with an extremely serious
situation. Hundreds of hogs are
dying of an infectious disease. The
state authorities do not appear to be
able to find an adequate remedy, and
they are not taking any practical
steps to prevent the spreading of the
disease. The state veterinary has
visited the section and perhaps quar-
antined some hogs that were infected.
This is not enough. Deputies are
needed that will remain in the terri
tory and see that the law is strictly
followed out.
Within the next eight months be-
tween $50 and 800 cars Of hogs will
be shipped from Caldwell. represent
ing more than $7s0,000oO If these
hogs are infected an immense loss
will have to be borne by the very men
least prepared. These men are enti-
tied to protection and the state au-
thorities should see that the mat4er
receive instant attention. Investisa-
ton after the hog is desd and learned
dissertations on The probable csuse
Of death are all very we'll, but Il is
doubtful If this can be thoroughly ap-
preciated by the man who owns The
hog-especially if he knows that the
hog would not have died had he se-
ceived the protection by the state tsu-
thorities to which he thinks he is
justly entitled.
The stste authorities have signaliy
failed in their serum experiments aud
it is now time to try prevention in
stead Of cure. Deputies should be
appointed in every locality where a
case Of the disease is reported and
any violation of the law requirinE
ssiinals to be burned shouid
be prosecuted vigorously. The sitna- |
tion IS serious and should be faced /,
sparely. l.;
