The discharge of Thomas Jolly, a
guard at the penitentiary, by Governor
Haines because he had expressed a
preference for someone else for the
Republican nomination next year is
another of those political blunders for
which the executive office is becoming
famous. 1t Is well known fact that
men in other departments are conspic
uous in their efforts to convince the
people that the governor should be re
nominated, yet they are still drawing
their pay and 1t is noticeable that theil

new law ignored.
The trouble with our law-making
Is that we build up our reforms on
notions and prejudices, and not on
Judgement. How any one of intel
igence could have expecte so radical
a change as this tax commission to
assume dictatorial power unchalleng.
ed, Is hard to understand. Rudi-
mentary training in statecraft should
nave told the legislature to make this
as strong an experimental commission
as possible, but to fortify it with a
constitutional amendment giving it
real power. Instead, they build up
an imposing law. providing no way
to make it constitutional; and a
schoolboy court would overthrow it,.
And because its devotees did not pro-
vide for the necessary constitutional
amendment, there can now be nothing
done to make it better for at least
three years.
1t can hardly be doubted that the
more imposing and far more expen.
sive public utilities commission will
come to grief on the same form of
appeal, If any one wants to protest
its findings. For example, it's decisio
In the Fremont county power case,
which in affect clinches an existing
monopoly by denying competition is
probably assailable in spite of what
may be local justice of policy; it
must be doubted If the constitution
authorizes any such arbitrary power,
even for justice. Yet the legislature
was SO busy electing senators and
dividing counties that it couldn't take
an hour off and pass a resolution for
an amendment that could make both
commissions effective.
The Recorder again favors it's oft
proposed calling Of a constitutions
convention, to authorize and make
easy these and many other important
measures; one of which is the
abolition Of the cumbersome legisla-
ture and the creation of a smaller,
trained, more permanent law-making
body that can really serve the
people.-Richfield Recorder

LEMON OR PLUM-IT's WILSON.

Ii the Wilson Administration should
be a failure. the Democratic nomina.
ton for President in 1915 will be a
lemon, which Messrs. Bryan, Clark.
Underwood and others will gladly
hand to Mr.. Wilson. If the Admins
tration should be a success, the NOM
nation will be a plum, which the
party will hand to Mr.. Wilson with
hint that any other who tries to
grasp it will get a rap on the
knuckles.
But We are informed by a Wash
ington dispatch that, If success crowns
the labors of Mr.. Wilson, CLARK and
Bryan, will come out in public state
ments indorsing him for renomina.

Is thus to take the lead is the same
Bryan who inserted In the Baltimore
platform in 1912 this plank:
I'VE favor single presidential term
and to that end urge the adoption of
an amendment to the Constitution
making the president of the United
States ineligible for reelection, and
We pledge the candidate of this con-
vention to this principle"
If Mr.. Wilson should accept a Sec
ond nomination, 1t will be interesting
TO see how he squares his action with
the fact that he is pledged to this
principle. If Mr.. Bryan should in
dorse the President for a second nom.

comedies this action with the SINGLE

OF State can also be a Chautauoua
lecturer without neglecting his Off
cial duties? Did he not explain how
the advocate of prohibition for Ne

KAPPA HOUSE r

On Friday evening the Kappa
House was a scene OF much merri-
ment and good time. it being the oc-
casion of the annual Kappa House
Party" or reception to new students.
The house was lastly decorated for
the occasion.
The evening was given over most
ly to diversions of an informal ma
ture calculated to assist the fellows
in getting acquainted and foster a
spirit of freedom. One of the games
was a take-off on football wherein
the players used an eggshell for a
ball, and endeayored to blow it
across the goal. This proved very
exciting and held the interest of all
who We're able TO get close enough
to the sidelines to witness the per-
Torrance, as well as a regular game
between rival college teams.
After a number of such anne had
been played a light luncheon was
served by members of the Philo
society. Following the luncheon a
number of the old Kappas gave talks,
which closed the evenings enter
tainment. The speakers were Lauritz
Miller, Clyde Hinkley and Ellis
Potter.

the loans demanded by a handler of

form for New York state, should
have been impeached and ousted from

1T was Il foregone conclusion that

IAN EXPENSIVE WASTE.

which, it Is set forth that in Texas
the farmer has received at little as
Il per cen of the final selling price
of his products. The principal reason
why the farmer suffers such big
losses between his farm and the
market-place, is to be found in the.
present transportation system. 1t was
designed by the railroads for the en-
enlargement and development of
large centers and TO GIVE THE
RAILROADS LONG HAULS.
1t is the railroad companies that
are most interested in the hauling of
wheat to Minneapolis to be grouid and
returned to South Dakota as flour.
Why? Because it gives the railroad
companies two long hauls. 1t is the
railroad companies that are most in

asserted that Mr.. Bryan would not
make that statement now, and added
lthat-"the gentleman from Alabama
will eve get the president of the
United States to agree with his
statement that / am a tool of the in
terests.'
In commenting upon the whole af-
fair, the Washington correspondent
of the Philadelphia North American,
says
While the politics of the whole
thing was understood by some mem
bers, and the democratic majority
made manifest their approval of I'm
derwood and their disapproval of
Hobson, the proceedings were regard
ed as unpleasant and the results very
unsatisfactory by a great number of
democrats,
They all knew that little more than
a year g every Wilson man, who
was then fighting for the nomina-
ton of Wilson, said and believed the
same things about Underwood that
Hobson expressed today.
Now, with the Wilson administra-
ton less than a year old, it is Under
wood who stands next to the presi-
dent as the party leader, and all the
men who were then denounced as re-
tctionaries-Clayton, Simmons, Mar
tin and other, members Of demo
eracy's Old guard-have been exalted
to places of power and influence, are
relied upon for advice by the presi.
dent, and more progressive men are
regarded with little approval, ever
at the White House, whenever they
question the right of Underwood and
the coterie he has assembled about
him to control legislation through
the seccrt caucus club"
OF course this is not conclusive
but it will be filed in the O
the voters for future reference. Bu
of n thing all may be positive, ant
that is that Wilson will be no NOR,
able than was Taft to occupy a mid
die ground between the progressiy,
and reactionary elements in his owl
party. He must choose one or tn
other. That he will be forced t
make afinal and definite election be
tween the two is shown by such in
cidents as this attack by Hobson VI
on Underwood and by the fact tina
Hobson will go all over his HON
state %picturing Underwood, on tn
authority of Bryan and Wilson be
fore election, as a reactionary. Will
Underwood will no doubt refer to tn
present attitude of Wilson and Brya
to refute the charge. i. is a case {
