EDITORIAL COMMENT

Orvil Rinehart, democratic can
didate for governor delivered the
first political speech that we have
had during the campaign, in the
opera house Monday evening. He
is very deliberate talker and i'm.
pressed one as being a little lacking
in pep, but for the most part he
was very fair in his arguments.
His principal charge against the
present state administration was
extravaganza, and further than a
claim that he could cut down OK.
penses, did not promise any great
reforms if elected. He justified
the national administration in not
invading Mexico, but said he had
signed I'm offer to go to the front
himself as soon as the Mexicans
should kill an American on his
own soil, but he didn't explain
Why he didn't shoulder his gun and
go after the Columbus raid when
about score of Americans we're
killed on their own soil. Neither
did he explain why American
troops are now in Mexico if we
have had no provocation for inter-
vention. He praised the Wilson
administration for the passage of
the federal reserve law, but was
fair enough to admit..that the law,
in practically the form in which it
was enacted, was framed by a
monetary commission composed
largely of republicans. Neither did
he explain why the democrats op.
posed the bill and killed it when il
was presented during the Taft ad.
ministration.

Many farmers are done corn

for the November election. Messrs.
Peckham and Doering have also
filed petitions to run in the indie

is that they did not fulfill the law

Vermillion- Many complain ts
have been made to the state food
department here and to department
inspectors concerning alleged short
measures of gasoline given by
owners of gasoline pumps and
vending machines. While the
food commissioner is also state oil
inspector he is powerless under the
law to prevent short measure in
gasoline vending machines. That
the inspection of such machines is
a matter of urgent need is shown
by advice received from the Bureau
of Standards, Washington, D. u.
An investigation made by shat
Bureau has shown that large num-
bers of such machines give short
measure and that the American
public is suffering enormous losses
annually as a result. Some types
'of machines are inherently incor-
rect and others permit tamrering
by the dealer. The Bureau esti.
mates that in Illinois alone, the
annual frauds through short meas
ures in gasoline amount to $500,
OOO.OC.
Another cause of much COM
plant during the last year has
been the quality of gasoline sold in
this state. The standard fixed by
the state oil inspector prohibits the
sale of gasoline having a gravity Of
less than ST. Beaume. Consider
able product having a gravity of
55* to 56* has been shipped into
the state but the inspector has in.
sisted that this be sold only as
naphtha. It Is believed that there
have been very few violations of
ibis requirement.. Barrel ship
ments received by individuals are
seldom inspected by state inspec.
tors, but if any consumer have
reason TO believe that the gasoline
they buy is of lower gravity than
the standard or lower than ths val
ue marked on the barrel, samples
will be gladly examined at the la
boratory:.her and all cases will be
investigated. The law requires
every barrel to show the minimum
gravity of its contents and prohib- !
its the use of any false or fraudu.
lent claims on barrels or other
packages.
