Perhaps Mr.. ROckefeller's throat
trouble is no proper subject for testing.
He may indeed be seriously i'll, with q
very painful malady, with a malady that
may i'll the end prove fatal. Yet he has
no one but himself to blame for any UNI
kind things that may have been said
about him i'll the newspapers. 1t is no
disgrace to be sick, and it involves no
legal penalty. The plain, straightfor-
ward way would have been the best way,
AS a rule, the usual thing is the best
thing. A proper certificate from his
physician showing his actual condition
undoubtedly would have been accepted
by the committee. The suspicion that
he was lodging the process of the com
mittee was a suspicion of his own ere
ating.

THE BOOMER WHO KNOCKS.

Every man in the valley should have
heard the lecture of DR.. BrOaddus Tues
day afternoon. 1t was eminently SANE
and practical. Some of the things he
said are worthy of the fearful, perhaps
prayerful, consideration Of the people Of
the valley. He said some things which
were unpleasant, possibly, to some of
his hearers, and these were among the
best things he said.
He pointed out to us that there are
some kinds of advertisements worth in
finitely more to the valley than boomer"
literature sent into the east. The beau
tifying of the homes of the people here
by means of trees, flowers and shrubs.
will in the long run bring more invest
Ors and sell more land than all the
methods so far adopted by land boom
ers. He called attention to the fact that
the two chief assets of Southern Cali
fornia are the flowers and the tourists.
The flowers impressed the tourists. and
the towns had tourist hotels for the
comfortable housing of the visitors.
Another point that should be engraved
on the hearts of us all is harmfulness to
the whole country of the knockers
Not the local knOcker, who IS dissatisfied
with local conditions, but the sort Of
d~etraction INDUCED in by which one
community decries every other cOmmun-
ity. This cannOt fail to work evil in the
long run. Say three possible investors
from the same community 90 to three
different sections of the valley and com
pare notes when they get home. Each
of them has heard strong representations
of the alleged disadvantages Of the other
two. AS sensible men, what must they
conclude as to all three? In business.
doubt is a deadly thing: and if every car
of tourists goes out of the valley satur-
ated with doubts of the kind limited at
above, what will be the ultimate reputa-
ton Of this wonderful region to the
minds of the investing world? Let every
man be content to tell the truth-the in
contestable truth. the wonderful truth
about the possibilities of his own propO-
sitiOn. and let him leave the others alone.
Let him especially beware how he mis-
represents the others. The simple truth
about any of them is all that any Of
them needs.

The high water in the Ohio river and
it's tributaries has already Ion much
damage in the states that border it.
Some damage may also be expected on
the Mississippi as a consequence of the
rise. There is some comfort, however.
in the probability that the spring high
water in the Ohio will pass out to the
gulf before spring rises come on the
Upper Mississippi and the Missouri.
This will perhaps prevent a repetition
of last years flood disasters on the lower
Mississippi.

EPUblICANS SAY |
THEY FEAR PANIC
Progressives, However, Do
Not Think Country in DAN
ger From Finance Bill

WASHINGTON, July So.-Democrata
and republicans OF the senate clashed
again in debate on the Underwood
Simmons tariff bill today when Senator
stone charged that the republicans de-
llberately were attempting to bring on
a panic in their speeches attacking the
pending measure.
Republican leaders, denying any in
tention to bring about disaster, declared
they feared that such actually would
be the result.
Senator Gallinger asserted he was
no Calamity howler,' but that he act
ually feared the results which he hoped
would not come. II the disaster he
feared did not come, the senator said,
the glory would go to the democrats.
Senator Penrose declared that not
only did he fear the proposed bill would
bring on disastrous consequences, but
that Industrial depression already was
upon the country. He cited instances
of steel mills in Pennsylvania that al
ready had closed down.
While republican and democratic
leaders were engaged in hot discussion
Senator Kenyon averred that In his
talks he always had stated he did not
believe the pending bill would result
in disaster and that the people OF his
state did not believe so, either.
"Oh, was not referring to the pro-
gressive republicans" said Senator
stone 81 meant that the ma jofity of
the minority were attempting to Arouse
the people"
After the furry of this oratorical
storm and the later excitement caused
by hail and wind storm. which forced
a recess of the senate, the eafthen ware
schedule was completed and passed and
