that, despite the howl which has been
raised against the law and the effort TO

first case Ia that OF lady who recently
had her household goods moved and
placed In storage. She had been pack

had good cause for this dread. as on
former occasions when she had moved
the men gave her much trouble by
their rough handling OF her things and
by their grumbling, cursing and liquor
smelling. This time everything went
so quiet and courteous and so strong
and efficient without that she sought In
her thinking to account for this great
difference In tho conduct OF the men.
Her conclusion was that the men
were without drink. SO now II one
should try to convince this lady that

efficiency he would have hard time

Another interesting case which has
come to my attentions In a certain
building in New York there are two men
who have run the elevator and done
handy work for several years Before
prohibition went into effect, those men
were nearly always "full." and conse-
quently very disagreeable most of the
time. So much was this the case that
their employer was often on the verge
OF discharging them and was only pre-
vented by the scarcity OF help and the
thought that discharging them would be

and consequently are Eeat in dress.

interesting case as II involves more

money freely at saloons and rs a con-
sequence his family was poorly pro-

Doubtless all these cases can be

The Exposure Of Red socialism.

The halo of martryrdom Ill fits the
head of the kind OF thing most Of the
five stod for when they were speaking
their own mind privately among their
own or cunnlngly stirring UP their
followers during their various CAM
paigns The indictment OF the so-caled
socialist party platform. which Is part
OF the committees report, reveals a
situation taht may well give all Amer
leans pause for thought.
AS the brief filed for the prosecu-
ton points out, the suspended social
lists stand for program which. while
protesting TO utilize political action,
constantly denies that existing evils or
defects may be remeded by such action
and insists that such political action
must be supplemented by violence and
mass action. which 1t advocates. direct
ly as we'll az by insinuation and sug-
gestion." Under these circumstances,

proper legislation that will compel the
filing OF constitutions, bylaws, and rules
and regulations of all political parties,
associates or groups OF citizens VINO
unite behind candidates in any cam
paign at least thirty days before
primary elections and sixty days before
a general election" Is not bad idea:
provided, as planned, that the right of
any group OF citizens to nominate a
candidate legally shall not be impaired.

by men opposed to existing governments

A New Legislative System.
Oregon has no fears Of innovations In
government, The initiative. referendum
and recall have been developed there
to an uncommon extent. Direct rule

ways under it's laws.
The latest Oregonian idea will be sub
mitted to the voters this year. 1t Is

The proposal Is to divide the session OF
the legislature meets again for not
first period. not to last moro than forty
days all legislation Is to be introduced,
but only appropriation measures can
be passed Then the legislature ia to
adjourn for sixty days, so that the
interval in which they can consider the
bills that have been introduced and
determine whether or not they should
become law. At the end Of this period
the legislature meets against for not
more than ten days and enacts such
legislation as seems wise and necessary.
During the ten-day session a four-f1fths
vote OF all the members OF both houses
Is required TO pass any amendment.
The Oregon plan is excellent. but In
order to make It wholly workable the
state should In some way publish the
text OF hills introduced and distribute
a copy of the publication TO every voter.

WOOD AND rAE

Mark Sullivan, the we'll known
writer for the New York EveninG
Post. comes TO the defense of Gen
Wood on the charge that his cam
paign is being promoted largely by
the use of money. He says that
Gen. Wood had a disagreement with
John T. King, his former manager
because the latter would not make a
statement as 10 the sources OF his
contributions or how they were ex-
pended King. according TO Mark
sullivan, was OF the old-style polit-
ical school who thought these mat
ters were not even for the candidate
to know--a la Newberry
When William c. Proctor, the Gin
cinnati soap man, came into the cam
paign he agreed with Gen. Wood that
statement ought to be made by
King. Suppose he fell into a coal hole
and died, was the question they
asked. We won't know a thing that
has been done. It wasn't business TO
go ahead that way. This was the
proper way for the manufacturer of
Ivory to clean things up. But In the
meanwhile some amateurs In poll
tics around New York had permitted
their zeal TO run away with their
Judgment. The incident Of the s70,-
900 note, which was Endorsed by cer-
tain fnanciers, was true, It is said.
Mr.. Sullivan has some practical OBJ
servations to make on the expendi-
ture OF money in politics. A littls
grease Is quite necessary to keep the
axles oiled, as well as a little soap
for cleaning up. The days of

but you can't get along without

In South Dakota had large sums
spent with them for the recent pr-
mary. Perhaps the managers have
taken warning Of the Newberry cam
paign. They are not buying editors
outright. II Is not true, according to
Sullivan, that the eastern financial
interests are putting up large sums
for Gen. Wood. He analyses the
sources of money supply for the va
rious candidates as follows:
Purely on a basis of the casual

NO PUBLICITY YET.

When Senator Borah's explosive
charges went out to the world, the
candidates did the natural thing
they rushed to cover. They all with
one accord, began TO make denials,
explanations and pleas in avoid
ance. Taken upon their own testi-
mony, a splendid Sunday school class
could be organized among them.
Each OF them confesses himself an
embodiment of purity and high
mindedness, but Acknowledges that
he has his suspicious of the others.
Sam Jones said 1t was the hit dog
which hollered. BY parity of rea-
soning. it is the guilty party who
acts suspiciously. Nobody expected
those against whom Borah's re-
marks were directed to confess their
Import. But it. is interesting to note
what they actually did do. Only two
will be considered here. Gov. Low
denis response was the more plaus-
ibie. He promptly expressed n Will
ingaess to have his campaign ac-
counts investigated. That was good
as far as 1t went.
But IL there was nothing TO con-
ceal OF explain. why did not Gov.
Lowden score a telling point, not
only by expressing his willingness
but by actually making his accounts
public That would, we believe,
have been sumner. But he appar-
entity prefers to wait for a commit
tee to be appointed or for some
body else TO do something.
Gen. Wood also lodges. He de-
ciares that his managers are ready
10 respora to any proper inquiries
concerning HIS campaign finances.
But they would probable prefer TO
reserve TO themselves the definition
OF the word proper. At any rate.
they don't voluntarily open their
books. On the other hand. Gen.
Wood raises the plea that the charges
we're intended to injure him in the
Michigan primary! But nobody has
yet sued the New York World or
Senator Borah for libel.
