utter; to ultimate ruin; the othe
to the regaining OF our prestige ant
our Apower.
Prosperity, we have assumed. Il
to come not through industry. no
through frugality. not through
economy, but through the oper
door OF the public Treasury of the
United States. an impossible avenue
over which prosperity may travel.
"A proud. strong people may
suffer reverses at arms. but time
fights on their side for victory. Ar
Independent, and sen-reliant nation
may undergo the misfortunes OF
war. but their character and their
purpose win ultimate triumphs. But
nation whose citizenship has been
drugged and debauched by bonuses,
gratitutes and subsidies has entered
upon a road over which no nation
yet has ever beaten a successful
retreat"
And the inexplicable puzzle OF
this Congress mania to solve every
economic problem that arises in the
country and TO settle every political
question that anybody brings up
this mania to make all things easy
by bursting through the doors of
the national Treasury, is that the
Slxty-seventh Congress began its
existence with exemplary work at
economy and retrenchment.
Under the urgings OF the Presl-
dent and the guidance OF Budget
Director Dawes. with all the de-
partments of the business-like
Harding Administration chopping
expenses to the bone, It is a fact
that this Congress did get the ap-
propriations down by a billion of
dollars. II IS a fact that It abolish
ed many OF the so-called nuisance
taxes and made some improvements
in other taxes. although It failed 10
correct the gravest faults of our
system OF taxation. II is a fact that
Congress reduced the national tax
bill SSO0.000,000 for this year and
that on direct taxes It viii be down
a billion of dollars the next year.
But after starting with so brave
a show OF economic sanity and fin
ancLal self-denial the leaders Of the
very same Congress plunged into
their bonus raid on the Treasury to
the extent Of five billions Of dollars.
They set out to make inordinste, ir-
tariff rates that could cost
American consumers nobody knows
how many billions of~dollars in the
increased prices Of their necessaries
Of life.
II Is this bonus mad. tariff mad,
tax mad element in the majority
control of Congress which has alarm
I'd and aroused Senator Borah and
Senator Lenroot no more than it
has alarmed and aroused the voters

With all the depth Of his con.

ator Borah warned the Senate con-
troll on Thursday. as Senator Len

how far. and how dangerously far
the McCumbers and Watsons are
getting apart from the American

Senator Borah is a Republican, as
Senator Lenroot is a Republican.
Both have stayed with their party

support their party wherever they
can give it their support in con-
science and honor. But neither is
so dun of vision as not TO recognize
what the whole country is saying

sible how the McCumbers and Wat

satisfaction which Senator Borah
pictured TO them in his great ad-
dress condemning Congress ex-

Senator Borah did not confine his
criticisms to the bonus alone. He
arraigned all Congress extra

said truly, that the Congress ex-
tremlsts are passing measures that
would load down the people with
other unsupportable tax burdens
His periods on this phase Of the
subject were of so high an eloquence
and OF such luminous reason that
they merit repeated quotation and

been known for its healing qualities
for many generations, The redmen

This mineral is said to have cured
thousands of their internal and ex-
ternal ailments because 1t contains
organic sulphur and other healing'
elements.
The mine is many miles from the
nearest railroad. 1t is located far
up in the foothills of the Rocky
Mountains and the mineral must be
carried on the backs of mules over
railroad where IL is sent to New
York city. The mineral is then
made up into sun River Ointment
and put into substantial glass jars.

for the treatment of eczema, pim-
