NEW MEXICO'S ELECTION

The Showdown" in New Mexico.
as the Savannah News (Dem.) calls
the special election which resulted in
the victory of a Republican Senator
last week, is interpreted as con-
ditional o. X. of the Harding Admin
istration," by the albuquerque Jour
nal, an Independent Republican pa
per of New Mexico, which is in a pc,
sition to size up State sentiment.
That the special election was re
ferendum" is, in fact. generally con-
ceded by both Democratic and Re-
publican editors: as Mark Sullivan,
Washington political correspondent
of the New York, Evening Post,
writes, 1T was the first election of a
national official since the Republi-
cans came into power, and because
of this, politicians of both parties
look forward to proclaiming the re-
suit as an index of any change or lack
of change in public. sentiment"
Nationwide interest in what ordi-
narily would have been a purely local
affair was first aroused by President
Harding's letter reviewing the ac-
cOmplishments of the first six months
under the Republican regime. This,
complained several Democratic pa
pers, was clearly campaign docu-
ment to aid in the New Mexico cleo
ton, and thereupon. says the Posts
correspondent, the Democratic and
Republican National Committees
made the election an important mat
ter. Senators and Congressman
from surrounding States, and well
known women speakers were press
ed into service.
Running against Senator Bursum,
Republican, who won, were a Demo-
crat. Judge Hanna, who aspired to
the governorship in the last election,
a Socialist and an Independent Re- |
publican. The election was to choose |
term of Albert B. Fall, now Secretary |
of the Interior, who, as the New York |
World points out, was not in New /
Mexico aiding in the election of his |
Republican successor. but rounding |
up cattle and buffalo in Montana"
AS the Democratic Roswell IN. NJ |
Record sums up the results of Sep
tember 20:
1.-THE election was won by the Re-
publicans for two main reasons.
First. the majority of the voters of
the State felt that the National Ad-
as represented by Mr..
Bursum should be given further time
to develop its plans. Second, New
Mexico normally has a Republican
plurality and there were no outstand-
ing reasons why any large detection
should go to Mr.. Hanna. The vote
that might have elected Mr.. Hanna
to the Senate went to Senator Bur-
sum largely because of the disposi-
ton to give the party represented by
Senator Bursum a fair opportunity to
make good.
"The great lesson that must be
drawn from Tuesdays election is that
the voters are waiting to see how the
Republican party handles the situa-
ion that confronts the country. If
he New Mexico election means any
hing, 1t means that further time will
De given the Republicans. On the 9TH
'r hand The Record is firmly con-
7inced that the voters will demand
iome material results by the time of
he Congressional elections next fall"

UNEMPLOYMENT COUNCIL
DISCUSSES WAGE CUT
High Cost Production Keeps
Up Prices And Prevents
Returning Trade.
BY Harden ColfaX.
In Courier-Jo

Washington. oct. Three labor
groups. in addition to the railroads
and the retailers must debate their
war time prices more sharply than
yet has been done. in the opinion Of
a majority OF members of President
Warren c. Hcrding's unemployment
conference, in order to hasten the
coming of nationwide prosperity.
The three labor groups mentioned
are the ccal miners, the building con-
struction trades end the railroad
workers. The railroads must reduce
freight rates as much as possible'and
the retailers must be content with the
narrowest margin of profit. Sum
med up. such is the unofficial opinion
of most of the confereeg.
This opinion has not been reflected
in current accounts of the proceedings
for the reason that the conference
was called TO consider emergency
measures for relieving the present
situation and not to consider funda-
mentals And the deflation of war
time profits is regarded as a funda-
mental proposition. There hes been
considerable dcbGte-some Of it quite
warm-in the various committees as
TO the attitude Of the five groups. but
at times WIN a disagreement of any
committee seemed imminent cooler
heads have prevailed and the discus
sion has been diverted back to the
emergency phase of the situation and
away from the fundamentals.
Miners Most Important.
The three labor groups approx
mate 100000 men, First in order
are reckoncd the coal miners In the
union fields. There are about $751;
900 of these, il is estimated, although
not all of them are found on the
rolls of the United Mine Workers. In
the non-uniQn fields. there are APP
proximately 10000 more. The lat
ter group are not placed in the same
classification as the union men. for
the nonunion workers, in many cases, !
have accepted wage cuts and the bu- :
sine IS. as a result, has been going
more and more to those districts.
Union miners the country over. /
however, are working today for the
same wages as they obtained at the
peak OF the high price period. The
contract which includes the wage !
scale was made nearly two years ago
and does not expire till March 81.
1922. President John l.. Lewis of
the United Mine Workers, himself
a delegate to the conference, is on
record as opposing any wage cut
when the present scale xpires. In
other words, there has been no defla-
tion OF the wage scale in the union
coal fields.
Cuts Severely Resisted.
The building construction trades
have agreed, in most instances, to
wage cuts, but the cuts have been
comparatively small, IL is asserted, in
with cuts in other lines
of industry less highly organized. In
their case, there is no national
agreement, but wage scales are local.
The period of readjustment has
brought strikes in this industry in

Thugs Are Bounced

Now, all that is changed. What
ever thugdom there may be in politi-
cal campaigns-and there is thug
dom-is not permitted to show at
conventions or meetings. It is used
elsewhere, when it is used at all.
The splendid character Of the au-
dicnces for the past few years es-
ppcially last year, and thus far in the
II esent campaign-has been sub
Jet of wide comment. A: both par
ty's convntions probably third OF
the audiences were composed Of wo-
men. At the formal openings of the
campaigns, locally, the former weak
er sex was present in even stronger
force. All these gatherings were or
derby. While there was considerable
feeling between tn factions at the
Democrat convention at the auditor
UNI last June, the oopo' ing elements
demeaned themselves properly; the
respective speakers iaboIing under
great nervous strain in the effort to
express hard thoughts in soft Ian
guage. That they succeeded is a
tribute to the uplifting influence of
the presence of women.
There is no rowdyism at political
meetings nowadays.
Rowdyism and politics are going
to be total strangers in a day not of
the far distant future.
Because of the women" say the
the "suffs."

WOMEN IN POLITICS
Effect ON ELECTIONS
Are They More Orderly
Than Men, When They
Gather at Polls?
BY A. II. Tarvin.

Has the entry of women as activ,

erings. The "antis" admit that there
has been a marked improvement in
this respect. and are frank enough t.
attribute the cause to the presence
of women.
1t has not been so many years age
that one attending a political meeting
was what insurance men would term
hazardous risk The tough ele.
ment predominated except some
times, staid and dignified gentlemen
who held a place upon the stage Il
give their particular candidates the
prestige of their presence, most poll
teal crowds in the old days were
made up of the element vernacularly
termed hard guys"-a class OF
gents" whose shirts of doubtful pu
rity were innocent of collars, whose
jaws evidenced the presence of tobac
CO within, and whose visages, of ma
tural hardness, were given added re-
pulsiveness thru long neglect of IRA
zorial' contact.
Showers of Applause
Twenty years ago a party conven-
ton without a fight or two was a
tame affair. Even ordinary politi-
cal speakings needed much of the
thing called rough stuff TO make
its promoters feel that il was a sue
cess. Toughs and roughs swarmed
about the hastings then, and the ex-
perienced speaker was never unduly
surprised if infirm vegetables or ev-
en- an egg or two of respectable age
came his way. 1t used TO be deemed
political diplomacy" for one party
to see that the opposition's meetings
did not get by without a number of
rows, and often, thru the dense
clouds of tobacco smoke, the innocent
bystander, in his hurry for shelter,
was constrained, if he would con-
serve his regularity of features, to
dodge stray fists, some of them
holding clubs or blackjacks. Two de-
cades ago the loyal party follower
known as 'heeler' believed thorough
ly in tn Nietzsche doctrine, that
might makes right, and he sailed
forth to save his country with that
teaching uppermost in his mind.
Until a comparatively few years
ago the tough element was always
conspicuous at gatherings of politi-
cal nature, and women no more
thought of attending them than they
(then) thought of attending a prize
fight.

sion with the cooperation Of Hood
River county will be used, and from
Hood River the Mount Hood Loop road
will of course, follow the Columbia
River Highway back to Portland.
The drive over the new grade from
The forest boundary at Zig Gag to Gov
ernment Camp particularly bore testi-
mony of the beauties of the Mount
Hood Loop when it is finished. From
Rhododendron. which lies in the center
of veritable park of flowers, the
grade follows up mountain valley to
Laurel hill and circles the hill to a
point where the mountain bursts into
view with startling suddenness. This
view from Laurel hill is such as an
artist might dream, and alone is we'll
worth the trip, hard though it is at the
present time. When you realize that
the completed loop will open up many
such vistas as this one, and that the
entire trip may be made when the road
is finished, in one day with perfect
comfort, the significance of the loop
road bursts upon you.
When completed the Mount Hood
Loop road will include approximately
1862 miles of paved and gravel road.
The trip from Portland around the loop
and back may be made in one day, if
desired. and at no place will the road
exceed per cent grade. 1t will be
a trip embracing two of Americas
greatest scenic wonders, Mount Hood
and the Columbia river gorge. 1t will
be trip that Oregon can offer to a
world of motorists. to let them come,
and go their way, bigger and
better for having touched elbows with
Nature in her grandest mood.

BOYS Confess Changing Plates

Floyd Stafford and Fred Wing. who
attracted attention of motorists Mon
day morning as they slept in an auto
mobile parked on the Highway west of
here, confessed 10 officials that they
had stolen the car and had changed the
license plates. They at first main
tained that they had not tampered
with the plates but had merely taken
the car for a ride, intending to return
il. Their consistent stories led officers
TO believe they were telling the truth.
They broke down, however, after

LOOP HIGHWAY is
CALLED MASTER ROAD

(By H. w. Lyman in the 0regonian)
The Mount Hood Loop, a scenic
highway which will challenge the
world to produce its equal and will
open up vast mountain playground
but few hours ride from the center
of Portland is now assured. Contracts
have been let and already crews are at
work slashing and clearing the rights
of way. Before 1924, in all probabil-
ity, the first car will have made its
way around the mountain, and by 1925,
when Portland enteTtains the world. a
continuous ribbon of smooth road,
pavement and macadam, from Port
land around Mount Hood to Hood Riv-
er and thence back to Portland over
the Columbia River Highway will be
an actuality.
When the Multnomah county com
missioners agreed to cooperate with
Clackamas county and the State High
way Commission IN construction of the
road from the Multnomah county line
to the national forest boundary at Zig
Tag, and when the citizens of Hood
River county on June voted a bond
issue of $3.50. 600 to be joined with
state money for construction Of a new
road from Hood River southwark TO
the forest boundary, the success Of the
Mount Hood Loop project was assured.
The government is joining with the
state in building the road through the
forest boundary.
Beginning at Portland the Mount
Hood Loop road will run eastward to
Gresham, to which point there are al
ready two paved roads, and thence
over an existing macadam road 10 the
Multnomah county line. From here
the road will follow a new grade 10 the
forest boundary at Zig Tag and from
Zig Tag the new grade, which is al
ready about 80 per cent completed to

FAIR BOARD
TAKES JUNK
PARTY VISITS ALL VALLEY SECTIl
Journey Made Saturday to Boost Sep
Der Fair = Surprise Confessed
at Dairy Development

The progress that the Hood River
valley is making as a dairy center
came as surprise Saturday even to
local orchardists and business men.
who, joining the county fair board.
participated in an all day automobile
Junket through the entire section. The
party left the city in the early morn
ing, visiting East Side orchards and
stock farms en- route to the Upper
Valley. They participated in a picnic
lunch at Lava Bed Park.
The junketers, who were, accom-
panied by Leroy Childs, Gordon G.
Brown and M. d. Armstrong, called at
various orchards to inspect crop condi-
tions and to study methods of tillage
employed by representative growers.
They visited ranches, where growers
are specializing on cane berries. The
return trip was made through the Will
low Flat, Central Vale and OdeIl Sec
tons and by way Of ranches of the
West Side.
The trip was planned by the fair
board primarily to create interest in
the coming September county fair
which, according to expressions of
growers who will make exhibits of
livestock and fruits. bids fair to &C.
lipse any former fair.
The men on the trip declare that
Hood River valley fruit and general
crop conditions were never better.
While the June drop Of many sections
has resulted ingthe cutting of early es-
Inmates, the 1921 apple crop is still
placed at 1000, 600 boxes. The apple
crop is said to be especially clean, and
the harvest will be characterized by
fruit of high quality. While the pear
bloom this spring was unusually heavy
cold, rainy weather at the time of the
bloom prevented the fruit from set
ting, and the yield will not be very
much in excess of the light crop of
year ago.
The Hood River valley, according to
present indications, will harvest a rec
ord large potato crop this year. The
Upper Valley, the districts chief po-
tato producing section, has an in
creased acreage over last year, when
about rs carloads were dug. In the
Pine Grove section, where potatoes
have not formerly been grown COM
mercially, the crop of this year is es-
timated at 20 carloads. The junketers
declare that Upper Valley growers are
employing scientific principles of po-
tato culture, and that the crop there
this season should prove of exceptional
quality.
