Tie, Maine election. While disap-
painting in the failure to elect our
Democratic candidate. who is a very
able and progressive Democrat, is not
ut all discouraging when we consider
the figures. The Democratic candidate
received within about a hundred of the
vote cast for the President last fall.
This is a remarkably good showing
when we consider that 1t was a special
election The Republican victory was
due primarily to the return of q large
number of ProgressiNes to the Repub-
lean party. At least the Republican
vote gained something over 5000 and
the ProgresSiVes lost that much as
compared with the returns last fall.

A certain inexplicable lethargy
seems to have set in on the Medford
boosters. They have allowed Med
ford to be dropped off the map,
while Ashland is smeared all over
the Rogue River Valley. We refer
to the new map of the National
Highway Association. 1t is a beau
tiful work showing all of the pro-
posed national highways from the
Atlantic to the Pacific and the Lakes
to the Gulf. 1t is fitting that Ash
land is given the place of honor in
southern Oregon. for tourist traffic
and health and scenic resorts go
nicely together. 1t is great adver-
tisement for Ashland, and it does not
cost cent. How did Medford ever
overlook it?

Again, while the law of the state of
Wisconsin condemns corn syrup" as

Germany Aids Her Industries.
Though such laws are passed
largely for political reasons, they
have a damaging effect upon indus
try, and are in striking contrast to
the methods adopted in countries
where governments do all in their
power to assist commerce. For ex-
ampe, while the democratic party
holds it to be a crime on the part of
American manufacturers to sell their
surplus product abroad at slightly
lower than local market rates, the
German government comes to the aid
of manufacturers with more goods
on their hands than they can sell at
home. 1t declares that reasonably
good prices are an essential to the
preservation of industries. During
the first half of the present year the
output of raw iron in Germany
showed an advance of more than
100000 tons on the amount pro-
duced during the corresponding
period of last year, which till then
held the record. To prevent slump
in prices ruinous to the trade, an

From Oxen to Autos in CeylOn.
In other directions, however, the
United States is doing wonderfully
good work in the way of encourag-
ing export trade. BY policy begun
under the last administration, and
as yet not checked by. the present,
results are being achieved
by members of the consular service
detailed on special service. Consul
H. D. Baker, now toHring the far
east, has been furnishing a series of
reports invaluable to American man
ufacturers and unique in their inter-
est. Some weeks ago the Tidings

have perfected a method of compen-
sating the balance of his planes. The
spectacle has been witnessed of one
acceptance towing another, and it is
now possible for an airship at night
TO light up the territory over which
it is passing while at the same time
remaining invisible. For all this
Zeppelin is building new gas ships
and claiming their superiority over
the heavier-than-air machines. His
latest dirigible is to have 400 more
horsepower than any previous one
and is being built for a straight
flight of 1920 miles, or far more
than sufficient to cross the Atlantic.

WOMEN NOT THE SOLE OFFEND
ERS.

Gus men, should get together
again and pass resolutions of indig-
nation at woman's inhumanity to
woman.
1t is a favorite theme, and can't
be repeated too often.
There was O'Hara. He was max
ing a great, strong fight for the bet
terment of working girl conditions
and the abolition of white slavery.
This didn't suit Big Business in ILL
nois, and it was hard to strike back,
in the open, because the people were
with O'Hara. But there might be
another way to down him-his
past" So they tried to drag in an
affinity scandal, on the theory that
if you throw mud enough, some of
it will stick.
Then there is Governor Sulzer.
Wanted to wipe out the Wall street
stock gambling; wanted direct pri-
maries and wouldn't crook his knees
to Tammany bossism. However,
New York found that while Sulzer's
measures could be defeated, each
time one of them was voted down at
Albany, the people waxed wroth.
From some mysterious cavern of the
past a chorus girl came ferth with
a breach of promise suit-with
about the usual evidence CD in such
cases.
Turn again to Mulhall. The rage
and pain at his disclosures, Which,
regardless of Mulhall himself, are
down in black and white, must some
how be soothed.- So, rake over his
private life with fine tooth comb.
All these instances freshly bring
to mind how free men are from
Scandal-mongering. The past is
thick with such examples.
If all this sprang from a determin.
alton that men must keep themselves
unspotted from the world and forced
as women are, to fend off the slight
est chance for criticism, we nigh
rejoice. But there never yet wal
any evil gossip which did not sprins
from malice, sheer malice-and otter
sheer envy.

THE PENSIONING OF TOM AND
JERRY.

Tom and Jerry are two old plugs.
For twenty-four years, faithfully,
through rain and shine, with never
kick and rarely culver, they have
pulled to and fro, along Delaney
street, New York's sole surviving
horse car
Recently the juice of the dynamo
has taken their place, bringing with
it the question what to do with the
plugs.
Were they younger, the answer
would have been easy. In Canada's
far northwest, in fertile Saskatche
wan, there's quite an industry in
converting the bony derelicts from
eastern car barns, by six months of
fat pasturing, into plump and frisky
draught horses.
But Tom and Jerry were beyond
pastoral redemption. The only al
tentative to a pension in the coun-
try would have been pistol shots and
the boneyard.
In this emergency, the property
owners along Delaney street did
what we think is among the most
gracious acts in Gotham's checkered
history. They voted a fund and
named a commission to take the two
faithful old crowbaits to a snug sta
BILE up state, where they can eat and
sleep in peace and quiet until the
end.
How humane are you to the dumb
beasts in your employ? Do you kick
them and curse them and starve
them when something rolls your liv-
er? Do you let the children torment
the cat? In brief, is it the rule in
your home that the poor critters that
can't take care of themselves are to
be mistreated by any who may have
the power. or are you kindly, con-
siderate and merciful?
Must be some good in "li'l OF
N'Yark" to do a thing like that!

summarized his statements concern
ing the excellent market for plows
in India, where the instruments of
primitive man are still in operation,
and now. he tells of the opportunities
for the American make of auto truck
in Ceylon. Owing to the prevalence
of deadly diseases among bullocks,
the natives are being forced TO use
autos, and so adaptive has the local
government shown itself, the new
budget for 1913-1914 provides for an
appropriation of about $4,000 as
initial cost of motor mail vans. Light
machines are already in use by the
more advanced farmers, and the de-
mand for more is growing daily.
There is certainly something striking
in the spectacle of people passing
at bound from the OK wagon OF
antiquity to the latest word in Amer
ican autos. For a parallel we must
go to Siam, where the king has just
disposed of his royal white elephants
for 1913 touring car and fleet of
airships.
