paign, apparently have been calcu-
lated to win votes in the progressive
West. They have been read by many
with interest and sympathy. Where
he has made speeches in the West
Mr. Davis has made friends. But the
plant is heard frequently in these
parts that the Democratic nominee
is not known TO the people.
Democratic leaders not unnaturally,
perhaps when their attention has
! been called to the strength of Cool
idge and La Toilette in these North
western and Pacific Coast States, have
said, ''Oh. we'll, those are normally
Republican States!'
But as matter of fact il was
these Western States that made it
possible for Woodrow Wilson to win
in 1916 against Hughes, and 1t was
these Western States that swelled
the Democratic column in 1912 for
Wilson against Roosevelt and Taft
Farther back still In 1886, when Will
liam Jennings Bryan was the Demo-
cratic nominee, a number of these
States were found in the Democratic
column. 1t will be remembered that
earlier this year the confident pre-
diction was made that an alliance be-
tween the Southern States and the
great States of the West would bring
about Democratic victory at the polls
in November. So 1t scarcely seems
wise for the Democrats to shrug of
the desertion Of party in these West
ern States.
If the election in November leaves
to the Democrats only the solid South
with the party running behind the
La Toilette Wheeler ticket in West
ern and some of the Northern States
as it is now claimed will be the case,
the future of the party may we'll be
at stake.
Attack Differs To-day.
In 1912 the Republican party
dropped from it's big victory of four
years earlier to an insignificant place
The party ticket received the cleo
toral votes OF only two States. Utah
and Vermont, and in popular vote
the Republicans were third. Four
years later the Republicans had got
ten together again and probably
would have won had it not been for
the war and peace question and the
mistakes made by political leaders in
California. In 1920 the Republicans
were swept into power again. A
speedy recovery, but the attack upon
Democratic ranks today is different
thing from what happened to the Re-
publieans in 1912. In that year the
Republican party simply divided into
two wings, which later came together
again.
1t may be that the Democrats will
move greatly forward in the next
few weeks. If that is so, then the
danger of party obligation will be
avoided, but if the Democratic party
does run third in many of the States,
as 1t is now asserted 1t will, then the
leaders will have a Herculean task
on their hands thereafter. One thing
is in favor of the Democrats, they
will inevitably have a large men,
bership in the Congress. no matter
what happens to the national ticket.
They will have many governors Of
States and organizations in those
States. There a new party would be
lacking.
But alliances between the Demo-
Gratis and the Progressives in some
of the States, as has been proposed
in some quarters. to prevent the cleo
ton of Coolidge and Dawes, by
throwing electoral votes to La Fol-
lette and Wheeler, would go far to-
ward building up the Progressive
party in those States and casting
down the Democrats.

HUNTING ELEPHANTS
IS DANGEROUS SPORT
Writer Tells HolD Herd of
Animals Were Captured.

Capturing wild elephants requires
steady nerves, continual alcrtness and
great deal of experience. Moreover,
II is easy TO Imagine from the follow
Ing account by Mr.. Charles Mayer In
Asia, the disaster that may follow If
the tame elephants on which the hunt
ers ride are not handled skillfully Mr.
Mayors task was to obtain herd
for the sultan Of Trenggau.
When our fifty men had surrounded
the wild creatures. he writes. gave
the signal and we started forward.
Our eight tame elephants were spread
out nearly ten feet apart. pretty much
in straight line. and We presented a
front of some eighty feet. In that for
nation we came upon the herd; I
counted twelve full-grown elephants
and five young ones, sucking among
them.
AS we advanced an old bull faced
us. The rest OF the herd stood per-
fectly still, waiting for him to make
the first move; there was no sound
either from him or from them. Slow
ly we pushed in among them. The
drivers had had their instructions to
work first toward the females and
the young, for in nine cases out of
ten 1t is the young that start STAN
pede.
| motioned the driver next me to
close up on the old bull, which now
stood with head up and ears cooked,
grumbling hoarsely. He was enraged.
His head began to move from side to
side. He raped his trunk sharply on
the ground and trumpeted shrilly. We
worked our way through the rest OF
the herd. I spoke distinctly, giving
orders in low tone to the driver of
the elephant that was to work with
the one / was on. Gradually we man
aged to get on either side of the bull.
/ gave low call to the drivers who
were nearest us: "Jags; dia mau ber-
prang (Take care; he wants to
fight D"
AS we closed In on the old bull he
turned suddenly and tried to jab his
tusks into the elephant on my left,

met him with a smashing blow from
his trunk. Instantly the elephant !
was riding jabbed him in the fore
quarter. called to the other driver
to bring his elephants head round and
to have him butt and prod
The old bull, enraged and fearful,
was now venting his hoarse growl and
shrill trumpet cry at the same time.
The two tame beasts butted and
jabbed without stopping. Realizing
that he was now too much excited to
notice what took place on the ground,
/ said to the men behind me. Quick,
get down tie his two feet; tie tight to
the trees"
The two tame elephants with their
heads pressed against his neck held

The tame elephants gave the bull =
last squeeze and then drew away. As
they did so he lunged forward and went
to his knees, believing with rage and
terror and straining at the ropes.
/ could give thought then TO the
rest OF the herd. The bull was the
only one that had shown fight. The
others had huddled together In COM
plete bewiiderment, and It had been
easy to capture them. The drivers and
tie-up men had done their work well
and quickly. Our bag consisted Of
three males and nine females fully
grown. one baby; one flve-year-old and
two somewhat younger. The females
were seven and half feet In height
on the average. The big bull was the
prize; his tusks were about four feet
long.

MANY A WAY TO
OBTAIN CREDIT

The farmer, who is the initial pro-
Queer Of goods, has more agencies de
signed to assist in his financing than
has any other group, partly as a result
Of the natural growth of our present
financial structure and partly because
OF the special agencies created by the
government during recent years. The
list of his credit sources is a surpris-
lngly large one, for he may borrow
directly from the savings banks, trust
companies, and insurance companies;
may use the Federal Farm Loan
Banks n the Joint Stock Land
Banks; may sell his mortgages
through local farm loan mortgage
brokers', the larger mortgage compa
MES, and certain investment banking
houses; if a cattle raiser, he can dis
count his paper with cattle loan com
panies; his marketing is often done
through a state or national co-opera
tive marketing association; he has
access to the regular commercial
banks for short time funds: and of
course, participates as any other con
in the usual retail store credit.
Moreover, the Federal Reserve Act
has provided broad accommodation
for agriculture in it's text as originally
adopted and in the several amend
ments since made. and the Agricul
tural Credits Act authorizes the estab.
lishment of the Federal intermediate
Credit Bank as a further aid. When
one hears the statement made that
in our economic system the farmer
alone is not provided for, the answer
is merely, 1T isn't So" Many people
are coming to believe, and this in
