that some democrats In the primary

il sure that none voted for Deems.
And how about Hayner? All we
have TO say on that matter is that if
no democrats or former democrats
voted FOR Deems then Deems is not
right Ia some ways. A republican
candidate who can not get a few
democrat votes this year Is not going

It is q tradition in Philadelphia
that during the constitutional conven-
ton 1t was proposed to incorporate
In the constitution . provision that
the United States army should never
exceed 5000 men. According to the
tradition the debate, which was pos
sibly informal and outside the regu-
lar sitting, was abruptly cut short
when BENJAMIN Franklin solemnly
suggested that there be Incorporated
another clause making 1t part Of the
organic law of the land that no for
|eign: nation should ever invade the
country with an army OF more than
5000.
/ a.. somewhat similar point was
scored In the state legislature few
years ago whenA during q discussion
not over well based. 1t was proposed
by a shrewd Yankee from the hills
Of Sunderland, F. L. Whitmore, that
q law should be enacted providing
that no ono should be obliged to

sNORMALCYn AND GOLD TINES.

Senator Harding has been saying
in his speeches that he wants to get
back to normalcy," and Governor
Coolidge processes to wish for a re-
storation of old times
These gentlemen are the candi-
dates of the "Old Guard" The NOR
malcy" of "old times" Senator Hard
ing wishes to get back to must be
that of good old, golden Mark Hanna
days, when "Old Guards" campaign
fund exceeded $16,000,000; when {
price was paid for election: when EN-
ployes at great industrial plants wers
told by their superintendent6, thu
agents of special interests, that unless
they (the representatives OF specla
interests) wished them to vote, thei,
jobs would be closed to them on thf
day following election: they were the
days when corporation taskmasters
wrung immense dividends from the
very blood of women and children en-
ployed in unregulated "sweatshops.
On the other hand, in the days O,
"normalcy," in the "old times" there
was no Federal Reserve system; pan.
les were as frequent as the seasons
and national bank failures occurred
on an average of one every three
weeks; there was no Farm Loan sys
tenn; small farmers were the victims
of mortgage bank pirates and tenanc.
was the curse Of the land; there wa
no Federal aid in road building, ant
every farmer paid mud tax; there
was no merchant marine; there wa.
none of the many beneficient legisla
tive enactments of the last two Dem.
ocratic administrations. which wrest
ed the power of government out o
the hands of a few and lodged it il
the hands Of the people. In thos'
days Of "normalcy" an insidious lob
by guided the hand that wrote the
laws placed upon the Nations statut(
books, until driven from the corri-
doris of the Capital as the money
changers of old were lashed from thu
Temple.
Such was "normalcy" in the "olt
times" for which the "Old Guard,
the agents Of special interests speak
ing through it's candidates, so fer
vently sighs.

A LIFE SAVER

If the recovery in silver to above
the dollar mark proves lasting 1t
will have an important bearing upon
he market as it will mean that pro-
1ucers in the United States will
again sell their product in the gener-
al market and cease making sales
TO the director of the mint at the fix
ed price of 81 an ounce established
)y the Pitman Act. The Director of
mint made his initial purchase of
silver under the Pitman Act June II,
when he bought 100000 ounces.
Since then purchases have been made
almost daily and total purchased to
late is approximately 10,554,1S4
ounces. The secretary Of the treas
Try announced last June that the de-
oartment was ready to purchase
100000 ounces under the Pitman
Act, so that 197,OoO,O0O ounces re-
main to be purchased.
Decline was due to cessation OF
buying from China, India and Japan
owing to adverse conditions in those
countries coupled with selling by
European countries which were melt
ing down silver coins and selling
them as bullion.
|. The Pitman Act has been a life.
saver for the silver industry.

PROHIBITION JAGs

Prohibition decreased by 70 pei
cent the work Of the adult probation
officer in San Francisco, according tt
the report Of William H. Nicholl
head of the probation department
"Extragavance. however, more thar
made up for this" says Mr.. Nicholl.
"The offenses that are due main
ly to drink have decreased to mini
mum during the last year but ther.
is another trouble that keeps III
busy" he said. There has been {
startling increase in the cases of non
support and failure to provide.
"The habit of spending money ex
travagantly is plainly the cause Mer
who made mighty big wages during
the war formed the habit of spending
too much money. Now we have the
reaction. They did not save.
"Of all the men on probation dur.
ing the war who were making sub
stantial wages and who bought liber,
ty bonds of every issue, there is no;
one of them who now has single
liberty bond. Without exception, they
sold them at sacrifice. It is this
sort of thing that has kept this office
more busy than ever during the las
year.
IT seems to the Gazette that the Sar
Francisco probation officer in his
analysis Of his work has uncovered
the true cause of high prices and, in.
efdentally, the reason for the market
prices Of liberty bonds. Hundreds o!
thousands of persons have treated
their liberty bonds as currency
throwing them into the stream of oul
circulating medium and thus boost
ing the prices Of everything except
the bonds themselves. 1t is a signi
ffcant statement that Nieholl makes
when he says "Of all the men on pro-
baton = who bought liberty
bonds of every issue there is not one
of them who now owns a liberty
bond"
Have you sold your bond? If yor
have not. congratulate yourself ant
keep on holding it. Cautious inves-
tors are buying more bonds at pres.
ent market prices.-Gazette.
