Heath, made trip to Selma and surrounding territory to investigate the dairy business In view of encouraging the movement in But Ter county.

 Upon arrival in Selma the party wAs taken through the Selma Cream cry company's plant and shown how the finished products of the cows milk were made. Tho plant Is most modern in every particular and con siderabiy larger than any of the party had anticipated finding.
 The two creameries of Selma are but few years of age and the in- dustry has grown rapidly since it's incipiency. and the farmers of tha: section have been greatly financially benefited. The creameries have made it possible to make good money on the farm without plsnting large acre. ages of cotton. The farmers of Dal- laa county, with but few exceptions. miIk from four to 60 covs and con- tinuo their other farm work with tho exception of planting much cotton.

REPUBLICANS ARE UP AGAINST HARD
 FINANCIAL TEST
Borah Arraigned His Fellow Members for Not Being Able to Reduce Taxation
 and Reduce Expenses
By HUGH W. ROBERTS Washington Bureau The Ase-Herald
 300 Davidson Building

Washington, June )- To what do republican promises, made in October, amount to in June?
 Senator Borah of Idaho, republican, in reading a lecture to his colleagues in, the Senate, during the debate on the army appropriation bill, answered his cwn query by making use of the proyerbial pie crust" 2nd the bird nest of a former year.
 And thus it was brought out in eovrse of his arraignment. and the eontcmporaneous running debate, that the republicans will be unable to reduce expenses O. the government Or alleviate the burden of taxation which even President Harding de- cares 10 be almost unbearabie.
 Senator King of Utah, democrat. fnferpola,ed in the Bo-ah speech this statement:
 of the finance committe the senior senator nom Utah. Mir. Shoot, stat ed ir taking testimony before the committee when a Mir. Miller was be- irg interrogated, that instead Of there being reduction in taxation, taxes would be increased. Mir. Miller expressed his regret that there could be no reduction, as did the senior senator from Utah, but there seemed to be an absolute concurrence Of opinion that there would be none. The senior senator stated that there would be an increase, so I say to the senator from Idaho that his party will not only not reduce taxation and not produce economies, but will in- crease the expenses of the govern ment and will increase taxation"
 Asks for Plan
 Senator Borah, after agreeing with Senator King, exclaimed: "I@ wish to ask our republican friends what are you going to do about the question of economy? What is your pro- gralnme? What is your plan? There is no provision anywhere for reduc- tug expenses or taxation. There is no programme to that effect. If you do not cut the army and navy appro- priations, where are you going to cut2
 s-fn view of the constant discussion Of the question on the part of repub- sican leaders that taxes are now un- bearabie. and that they must be re- duced, when and where are you go- ing to reduce them? Where is the programmed"
 No republican attempted to answer xhe question, whereupon Senator ,Bcrah proceeded to expose the sham Sn republican publicity that that Searty has reduced estimates of the &epartments of tho government.
 He called to his assistance the New York Herald, a republican newspaper, and quoted therefrom:

WHITE AND WILSON
 DISCUSS POLITICS
Rr Associated Prsts


 Washington, June 1.AChairman George White of the democratic na- tionai committee called upon for mer President Wilson at the latter's residence today and discussed for an hour various political matters and the condition of public affairs. Mir. White refused to state specifically the matters which were taken up.
 "I can say this much, however" he said. "Mr. Wilson retains his keen interest in all affairs affecting the welfare of his party and his coun- try and he still has the militant spirit which characterized him as a party leader and chief executive"
 Replying to questions as to Mir. Wilson's physical condition, the chairman said that it was obviously a matter upon which he could not make a public statement.
 With regard to the general po- litical situation, Mir. White declared there had been a great revival of spirit among democrats and a gen. eral disposition to get together.
 "The failure of the republican ad- ministration to keep it's election promises to date has put new heart and hope in the party everywhere" !" he said.

ing this month, the democratic heads of departments asked for $5,064, 550,- 795, and this was hailed as wild ex- travagance. The republican Congress cut those estimates and appropriated to meet the revised items $3,717.441 ASA. This was claimed by the legis- lative body as heroic economizing. But Secretary Mellon of the treasury figures that when the year closes, June 30, the actual spending will have been $5,so2, ,024.ss1, a little over s6o0, ,ooD.o 900 more than the estimates made by democrats, which were criti- cised as being extravagant~
 Senator Borah proceeded to prove that the same story would be retcid at the conclusion of the fiscal year 1922, and continued to quote:
 The 1922 Outlook
 '.rhe estimates for the new fiscal year were 5,25S,515,o33. Congress, in other words. went through the mo- ton of saving for the new fiscal year si 400, ,ooo. .oo0- But without the postal figures, the spending will be S75v,- 00O, 900 more than the appropriations With the postal items counted in the spendinEs as they were in the esti- mates, the actual spending will be nearly $1,2Se,ooo,0oO more than the appropriations"
 Senator Borah declared that if the spending will De in excess of S7,eo0,- 900. .oo0.
 State of Peace
 There are other broken promises, according to Senator Borah. Turning flercely on his republican coilea gues, he exclaimed.
 sAnd not only have we failed to establish a state of peace, but we have done that which, in my Judg- ment, was most unfortunate. we started to do it, and then have failed. If there was any one distinct pledge made to the American people in the last campaign which was clear ana simple in it's statement, easily com prehended, and which a majority or the. people of the United States un- derstood and indorsed. it was that as soon as the party asking for power should be admitted to power 1t would establish state of peace. The Pres ident in his speech of acceptance stated in substance that a state of, peace would be established as soon a the republican Congress could pass it. and he could attach his signature to 1t.
 CT venture to sny that there is not a man in this Congress who went be- fore the people for election who did not give them to understand that one of the first and speediest acts Of the republican party would be to estab- fish state. of peace.
 GO. F. Ineffleieney
 we have an overwhelming ma jority in the House and Senate, and the executive department is repuo- iican from turret to foundation stone. And yet we stand before the country, we stand before the world, as unable to pass a simple resolution establish ing . state of peace
 we have not only been criticised by the opposition press, bus we arc now being apologizsd for by our own press. And we have become the sub ject and butt for the ridicule of the foreign press. The Congress of the United States is unable to formulate proposition which restores by law that which in fact exists"
 Senator Borah is 30 independent that the republican leaders will abandon. it is indicated. a plan to dis ciplinA him. His every utterance elicited fervent but of course in- ward Amen from the democrats.

sertion on the old maxim that "the

huniored their solemn dignity with a
long and erudite opinion, in which he
completely riddled their position,
turned their authorities against them
selves and made it quite clear that

were offering decidedly unfriendly adj
vice. He ruled that the governor, like
any other man, was not immune to ar
rest and prosecution for crime, and
ordered the sheriff to take him into
