 TAKES HER OWN LIFE

The news printed yesterday in The Empire of the death at San Fran cisco of Mrs. Jean Vanophem, wife of the President of the Alaska Jualin Mines Company. came as a distinc. shock to her many friends in Juneau She accompanied her husband North last summer, remaining here most of the time while he was attending to his mine developments on Berness Bay.
 Particulars u. ine death of Mrs. Vanophem were received by Mrs. John T. Spickett from Mrs. J. B. CarO, as contained in the San Fran cisco Chronicle of February 1G, and the article is as follows
 Mrs. Jean Vanophem, the beauti- ful twenty three year old French wife of wealthy Belgian minin5 en"irecr shot herself through the head with her husbands revolver in their rooms in the fashionable Inverness Apartments at 1405 Van Ness avenue yesterday morning shortly after 10 o'clock and died in the French Hospital Temporary in sanity, brought on by nervousness. is ascribed as the cause of the act
 A year SEQ, Vanorhein, who has offices in the Monadnock building. and who was a widower with nine teen year old daughter, married the young woman in Paris They had traveled almost constantly, making several trips across the continent since taking apartments in San Fran cisco four months ago, which, it r. said, resulted from Mrs Vanophems suffering from nervous ailment which required medical attention
 Sends Her Help Away
 Yesterday morning, after Vanophem had gone to his office, the young woman sent Simona, his daughter, on an errand, ordered the French maid to take Pameranian pet on ] walk, and sent the cook to market | She then took her husbands revolver from dresser drawer, and, fully dressed. entered the bathroom Then she calmly tested the gun by firing it into the bathtub. She then tura d it upon herself.

HUNG ON TO THE PLOW

An old English gentleman, school
teacher, who some years ago re-
sided in one of the small towns of
Ohio, was an agreeable teller of
stories, but deemed it beyond his
reputation as a raconteur to tell one
that did not surpass any that had
preceded.
A farmer having come to the viii
lage remarked in the presence of his
friends that he had been blowing all
the week with four horses. breaking
MP new ground, and dwelt upon it as
being very great thing.
"Pshaw." said the old English
man, that's nothing. have seen
in England fifty yoke of oxen hitched
to one plow."
The remark seemed to occasion
general surprise.
And" continued he. "the funniesr
part of the whole thing was that
while the pillow was on the top OF the
hill the leading yoke of oxen was on
top of another hill. and the forty
nine between the pillow and the lead
ers were suspended between the two
hills.
And there was another matter
connected with it rather strange. In
the course of the day the plowman,
becoming rather careless about driv-
ing his team, ran into and split a
big oak stump. The plow passed
safely through the split, but before
the plowman got entirely through, it
closed up and caught him by the
coattail."
Ibid it tear his coat?" asked a
person of inquiring turn.

veracious narrator; "he hung on to

others. The editor of this paper

ALL-YEAR-ROUND
POLITICAL PARTIES

Too frequently political party is
only a campaign organization, func-
tioning feverishly while offices are
being won, then falling into
patronage-gorged slumber while
Offices are being administered. The
biggest, problem of our politics to-
day is the discovery of ways and
means of making our political par
ties function intelligently between
campaigns as we'll as during cam
paigns.
I can best get at what I have in
mind by the simple reporting of
what is to me one Of the most
significant bits of political news
that has come to my ears for many
months. The Democratic party has
employed Mr.. Robert Goldsmith to
act for twelve months of the year as
Director of Political Research for
the party. That is to say, the Demo-
cratic party (Naional Committee) is
to have .studious gentleman, un-
hampered by the whims of a con-
stituency. who, in addition to the
gathering of campaign material"
may act as a sort of intellectual SER
want at large to Democratic sena-
tors, representatives and party
chiefs, unearthing for them anthem
tic information on the problems be-
fore the Government, helping to pu.
basis of fact under all legislative
discussing, helping to forestall snap
judgments and to hamstring mere
pre- udice AMI Passion in debate.
This appointment of research
director for a political party sug-
gests the next great step in Ameri-
can politics. II the Democratic lead
ers will only see its full significance
and develop it! Now Mr.. Gold
smith is a catholic-minded gentle
man, with an almost uncanny sensi-
tiveness to sources of information,
but he should be surrounded by
staff of research associates and Civ

MONEY SAVED, SAYS MORROW

Frankfort, Ky. July 26.-The
State budget system, during the ifs
cal year ending June 80, reduced
the floating debt of Kentucky by
S714,071.2S, according to announce
ment of Governor Morrow Monday.
The debt June 80. 1920. at the
close of the Administrations first
year, was S3,735,44799. June so,
this year, it was S3.041.S76.71. The
Governor said that in addition to
the outstanding warrants of ST.
500, 591.33. when the Administra-
ton came in. there were outstand-
ing unaudited claims of $1,503,-
S00.61 which had accrued and for
which warrants had to be issued
during the first half year of his
term, and that had it not been for
these, the net indebtedness of the
Commonwealth would have been but

en- adequate funds for the Organiza-
tion of the work on a comprehen-
sive scale. Then the Republican
party should follow suit by the or
ganization of research committee
under a capable director.
It would require Senate and
House of supermen to deal intelli-
gently with all the problems that
confront our legislators, If each
legislator were expected to unearth
and master for himself and by him
self the countless facts involved.
Yet that is what we are asking of
our senators and representatives.
We elect to the Senate or the House
a man from some small inland
town, a man of nominal educational
qualifications, man who has
neither read nor travelled widely.
and straightway ask him to pass
judgment for us upon the tangled
and technical problems of our in
dustrialism, and to aid in drafting
for us a scheme of relations with the
rest of the world which he has new
err seen and of which he. perhaps
knows next to nothing. This is not
fiippant fling at our representa-
tives. OF almost any American in
their place the same might be said.
A constantly changing body of
elected representatives cannot be
expected to have universal knowl-
edge at their finger-tips. We must
put back of the changing body of
representatives constant body of
researchers. The researchers will
provide the facts and the representa-
tives will act upon them.
We often wonder why it is that
England comes out of almost every
conflict, military or diplomatic, with
flying colors. The reason does not
lie primarily with her premiers and
cabinet members. but with the con-
slant body of men who give their
lives to the service of the Govern
ment Secretaries of State for
foreign affairs may come and go in

on forever. Many of the brightest
and best men from England's uni
versities are attracted to permanent
government service. These men be-
come experts in given fields. When
crisis impend in British politics, the
statesman can always touch the
buzzer and call to his side the
scholar who supplies the facts in the
case. This constant body of inform
ed men is so vital factor in British
politics that it is almost true to say
that the elected members of the
Government are the "showmen" Of
British politics, while the sustained
craftsmanship is supplied by the men
in the background.
Maybe we shall some day over
haul our civil service and achieve
something of a like result, but in
the meantime our most hopeful op-
pprtunity lies in the development of
research committees within our poll
teal parties. In doing this we
should be only tearing leaf from
the record of the British Labor Par
ty. It's research committee makes
Fundamental studies of any and every
question that confronts the Govern
ment. It's assembled information
is at the disposal of its servants in
the Government, and is available
when the party desires to make a
statement to the country. With
such a committee in each party, we
might in time get away from the
studied inaninities of our conven-
tional party platforms and achieve
statements that would capture the
Imagination of the country and serve
as blue prints of progress.
The party that first develops a
comprehensive research department
will gain an untold advantage over
the i,arty tha. retains the anciel.
hit-or-miss "ell.'cn to facts. It's
representatives in the Senate and
the House will, when the system is
really in working order, hold a de-
cided advantage over the represent
tatives of the opposition. With both
parties supported by such commit
tees of research. the Congressional
Record" might become document
of compelling interest to the public.
II may be suggested that the re-
ties could not be relied upon for un-
biastd information, that they would
bend facts to the exigencies of party
politics. If, however, both parties
had such committees. each party
would know that the opposition.
with the same facts at hand, would
be on the alert for misinterpreta-
ion. The system would, in fact.
enforce refreshing sincerity in
political discussion.
Under the research director of
zach party there should be numer-
Gus subdirectors in charge of special
fields OF investigation. The mem
bers of these committees should be
above the battle" of politics. They
should be members of a sort of
party civil service, The rewards of
the work should be sufficient to at
tract able men to 1t as life work.
Then, maybe. We could evolve sus-
tanned national policy, avoiding the
serious losses Of our present system
OF four and eight year swings OF the
partisan pendulum. as /
