a general re-direction of interest on

The Yellowstone bears have done
tremendous service in promoting en-

further attendance. Bears this year
have been more numerous than at any

 MT MeAdoos visit to Washington is not the only reminder that Presidential election occurs next year On Janurav Ii Senator Brookhart addressed the lcwa Legislature just convened in Des Moines upon state logislation which, in the light of his conferences First place was given to "re-enactment of an Iowa Presidential preference primary law The next Re publican national convention may be the scene Of a struggle between stand-pat element supporting President Harding and progressive element opposing his renominaton The progressives are alive to ths possibility and 10 the advantage they Will gain Il they induce more legislatures this fall to provide for a popular vote on the national party nominations. They remember well the Taft-Roct steam-roller of 1912
 In the preeonvention campaign of 1920 sixteen States had Presidential preference primary laws. Johnson obtained plurality majority in Cali fornia Michigan, North Dakota, Montana, Nebraska, and Oregon. Weed in Indiana Maryland, New Jer- eey South Dakota, and Vermont Harding in Ohio, Lowden in Illinois, and Sutherland in West Virginia. In Pennsylvania and Wisconsin the primary came to nothing. Now there seventeen States with primary laws If the pregressiyes could add num- Der of Western States. such Minnesota, Iowa, New York to fall into line, majority of the next Republican convention would be from States with primary laws. Of course, that would not mean that a majority would unite behind progressive can didate Progressive States like Michigan, which Johnson had carried, swung meckly into the Harding column on the last ballot two years ago. The pri- mares would probably split the convention into so many parts that the final nomination would be un- predictable. But the progressive leaders would be in a position if they liked, to block the nomination of conservative and that is what they want

WASHINGTON.

The newness of the United States among the na- tions of history realized when consider that It was only 191 years ago today that it's founder was born and Washington was more than 43 years of age when he was made Commander-in-Chief of the Colonial troops. It yet year later before the Declaration of Independence adopted and nearly thirteen years still before the Constitution of the new nation was set into operation with Washington the firqt President
 But no country ever had so great a founder. Wash ington has been called by historians and prob ably with truth among the famous characters of history He was of the wealthiest men of the Cclnoies when they took mp the cudgel against the expressions of King George. His particular colony was not oppressed and his personal interests not a- fected. He had friends among the British nobility and many of his social associates remained loyal to the
 Notwithstanding all this and the fact that he was regarded as an ars.ocrat, with deiberateness and thoroughness that characterized everything that Wash ingtcn did he threw his whole energy and ability into the conflict, and off to Boston to command fight to drive General Gage out of that city. It vas more than six years later that he accepted the .lirrender of Cornwallis in his State-the British lad in the meantime carried the into Virginia and brought about a successful revolution.
 Many times during the intervening years Wash ing tons determination, his genius soldier his answering loyalty to the he espoused were about all there to the war Almost any one else would have given up in despair
 Never have the common people, never has democ- racy, has the epirt of liberty and freedom had a valiant champion. And the war won, never had a country wiser just considerate coun- selor and leader. Considered citizen, soldier and eatesman measured by services his country, Wash ingon easily ranks first among Americans
 No country in the length of time ever achieved a tithe of what has been wrought by the people who lead to independence and launched on their course by the majestic Washington.

TWO SIDES TO THE QUESTION.

There two sdes to that question of taxess bonds and other securities into which many millions are being invested One of the things which has created ready market for State and other local public bonds and securities issued under the authority of the Sttaes, is the fact that they exempt from taxation. These public securities usually sold for the purpose of providing for local Improvements reads, etc. Being untaXabe they sold terms that make low interest rates, that greater per centages of the proceeds obtained for in mak ing the improvements. That means, of course less local taxation, for the people have to provide for sink ing funds from which the local securities paid The removal of the inhibition against their taxation would of course reduce Federal taxes but it would increase local taxes-or it would stop a great dea of the local improving that is in process throughout the country.
