CENSURED, NOT PRAISED.

a bit of Washington news which
may have escaped the attention OF the
public, but which deserves notice, was
the censure of Captain Walk. OF the
freight steamer West Faralon, which
picked up the survivors Of the burned
City of Honolulu, because he cut gov
ernment red tape and failed to secure
permission before he wirelessed the
news OF the rescue! The jack in office
to whom is credited this censure and
who is said TO have held over the head
OF the luckless savior of human lives
adrift at sea a threat of further disci-
pline appears TO have been the
president of the Shipping Boards
Emergency Fleet Corporation, one S.
Barstow Smull. and the ground of the
captains offense is said TO have been
that he communicated to the press
The fact OF the rescue in violation OF
'one of the iron-clad rules of steam
ship companies that a ship captain
should not talk to the press, par
ticularly on a disaster at sea-"
1t will, be news to most of us that
there is any such silly rule. II Il

MIR. HARDING A REPUBLICAN,.

Soma people profess TO be surprised
others even 10 he pained. that Presl-
dent Harding has followed tho exam
plo Of Wilson and R6oeevelt and Mo-
KInloy in asking tho people TO
elect q Congress OF his own political
marty. Thcre was really no reason TO
expect anything elao. True. there
havc beon reports that Mr.. Harding
was az much dsgusted an tho rest Of tho
country with tho course OF tho major
Ity in Congress. II was rumored that
he has said in private that he could
get along with the Democrats In
control OF the next House as we'll as
he had been able 10 do with the
Republicans In this. Moreover. his
broad human sympathtes with all sorts
and conditions OF men. his uncon-
cealed friendly relations with many
Democrats in Congress, had given to
some minds the idea that he was dis
poeed to risc above party preferences
and To make his term eminently an
! era of good feeling. But not even q
! President can shake of old ties. OF
abandon ingrained political convic'
tions. and there was actually nc
Sround for supposing that Mr.. Hard
ing would cease 10 be at heart a thor
oughgoing Republican.
II Is clear. too. that his persona
fortunes are bound up with those Of
his party in the coming Congressional
elections. There Is no way for th'
voters to cast ballots rebuking a Re
publican Congress without involving
the Republican President. 1t may b'
correct to say that the President II
much more popular than his party. bu
il Ia impossible TO torture election fig
ures into making any such nice dis
tinction. II his party wore 10 b'
badly beaten. IL would necessarily b.
a defeat also for him. and would clouC
his political prospects. Even grant
ing the accuracy of the report that n
scorns the thought OF a second term
1t Is natural and proper for him Il
hope for an electoral endorsement mid
way in his present term. as well as 70
the continued control cf Congress b.
his party. A Democratic House in tn
next Congress would inevitably crippl
his program and impair the efticIenc.
of his administration.-N. Y. Times.

THE POLICY OF SILENCE.

Recently the Republican newspapers
of this city h resorted TO the pol
icy OF sileno n respect Of an i'm
portant elem, of campaign news
the considerat ! Of campaign issues.
In the first place, they refuse to give
any attention to local concerns In
their appeals 10 the people. merely
asking support Of the Republican
ticket, regardless Of all the evils that
have arisen from that party's reign
IN the past, for the purpose OF indors-
ing the administration Of President
Harding. The Republican candidates
and speakers also pursue this policy
evidently realizing they would have a
hopeless task in asking the people &c
indorse the State and local admin
tstrations OF the Republican party.

THB NEGRO MOVES NORTH.

One OF the most important and Sig
nlficnnt movements OF tho war decade
was tho migration OF Southern
Negroes TO the North In 1910 the
colored population north OF Mason
and Dixons line and tho Ohio
amounted to little moro than 1,0o0.-
600: in 1920 II was 1,+76.o0o. an In
crease in 10 years OF ~ per cent.
As result, for the irst time in
the history OF tho country. tho center
OF Negro population has taken n
northeasterly trend. This center Is
now In the northwest corner OF
Georgia.
Tho explanation for this movement
Is found In the abnormal demand for
cheap labor In the North during the
war and tho consequent heavy NIL
grafton OF Southern Negroes. During
the recent business depression It Is
said that many of these workers re-
turned to their old homes. but that
they will remain there permanently
Is much to be doubted.
The partial recovery OF industry
has brought on once again n stringent
shortage OF unskilled labor. a shortage
which tho unwise immigration laws
make II impossible TO relieve with
workers from Europe. IL is very
probable then-that the increasing
wages which are being offered In th'
Northern Industrial centers Will
again attract the colored laborer from
the tobacco and cotton fields.
Apparently the colored race In tn
United States is not destined ito re
main permanently segregsted In on
section. II was the especial ndapta
bility Of the Negro workers for tn
| Industrial needs Of the Southern
colonies which first brought them t
these shores: their Increasing fines

THE LAW AND ~BLoODrIELD.-

No doubt Fire Marshal Ainscow IN
entirely correct In his contention that
the law gives his Office no authority
to correct tho miserable. disease breed
Ing and danser-threatening conditions
that have long prevailed in Blood
field"-Lafayette street--and the i'm
mediate neighborhood- But this affords
no reasonable excuse for the long
liberation of the aggravating and un-
natural conditions that prevail there.
We are FREQ to say. however, that
Fire Marshal Ainscow has no reason
to fear any accusations OF official ne
glect or inefficiency on the score of
"Bloodfield." 1t is not the duty OF the
Fire Department to look to tho cradi-
cation OF such unsavory and danger
GUS conditions. 1t may be said TO be
the general duty of the entire city ad-
ministration, and especially. In regard
TO tho important item OF sanitation,
OF the Board Of Health In past years.
There is no reason why the Board
of Health should not have purified
"Bloodfield" years ago. That body has
large powers in the enforcement of
regulations for insuring decent sani-
tary conditions. II can institute pro-
ceedings against either tenant or
owner, in respect OF tainted proper
ties. or against both, and compel the
adoption OF rsformstory measures.
But there has not been, so far as
public knowledge goes, the slightest
move by the Board OF Health for the
publication of "Bloodfeld." Move
ments may have been started. but II
80. no doubt they were quickly sup
pressed on appeal OF the offending
parties to tho committeeman Of the
ward" This. Is not an unusual ex-
perience Of executive Objects OF the
Board OF Health. Upon more than one
occasion, when they endeavored TO
suppress property nuisances that had
been made a subject OF complaint,
they were estopped by orders from
the Republican committeeman Of the
ward. and compelled to abandon their
good work.
Partisan influences OF this kind are
responsible for .'Bloodfeld,' its filth
and its danger as breeding place OF
crime. Being also a breeding place
for Republican voters at all elections
1t enjoys Immunity from prosecution
Powerful partisan Influences stant
ready to interfere with any effort tt
bring about It's publication.
For years the general city admins
tration has been OF the extreme par
tisan Republican character, although
some Of the departments have beer

operations. The Board OF Health
however, has long been a part OF TIT
Republican partisan machine. This 4

halted IN tho reform and cleansinl

GOV. CAMPBELL AND
 PARTY AT THE SULTANA

Governor Campbell and party ar rived in Williams last Wednesday and spoke at the Sultana after a short picture show. The governor devoted most of his time to an attack upon ex-governor Hunt, taking up person alities and small quibbles while touch- ing very lightly upon the chief issues of the campaign. The Williams au- dience would have enjoyed hearing him explain why he opposed the road south from Williams; why he revers- ed himself and supported the lease law after pledging himself against it at the last election, etc. but the gov ernor's oratory deserted him when he reached such topics.

WORK AGAINST HOG CHOLERA
 EXTENDED TO OTHER STATES

The United States Department of Agriculture this year extended its CO., operative hog-cholera control work to South Dakota, Washington, New Mexico, and West Virginia, making a total of 34 States in which work is being done in cooperation with State authorities. Cooperation among the different agencies is now at it's best, and is therefore more effective than ever.
 The object of the work with the various states is to prevent and con- trol outbreaks of hog cholera and to prevent the spread of the infection and to reduce losses.
 During the year hog cholera has been kept well under control, but special care must be taken in Octo- Der, November, and December, when usually there is an increase in it's prevalence. Farmers will save more hogs and prevent disastrous losses if

REQUEST FOR CLEANUP
 GRANTED BY COUNCIL

The request made by the Williams Woman's Club to the Town Council, that fall cleanup week be set in or der that the town may present a nea. orderly appearance, has been granted by the Council. The week, October to 12 inclusive, has been designate1 by the Mayor as Cleanup week. An appeal is made to the civic pride and the love of neatness and order, of ev- cry citizen of Williams. A fall clean up is needed as badly as a sprin. cleanup and the season is more fav- orable for carrying on the work.
 Cans and rubbish left about alleys and yards are menace to the public health during the winter months and should be removed now before wet weather sets in.
 Weeds and garden vines should be raked up and burned in order to de- stroy the weed seed and also kill the myriads of harmful insects which harbor in these'during the winter The frosts have killed the weeds and vines and now is the time to burn them.
