Bob Read Out of the Party

TT WAS to be expected that the republicans would attempt to
= read out of the party one Senator Robert M. La Toilette, who
ran for president as a third party candidate in the recent cam
paign.
in Washington in barring him from further conferences of the
senate and from appointment to committee vacancies that may
arise in the future, was in accord with party precedent and the
proper action against one who has done all in his power to dis
credit the republican party.
La Toilette has been a 'borer from within" for many years.
Calling himself a republican, he has done as much as anyone
could to discredit the regular organization It would have been
more In accord with good taste if he had dropped the cloak Of
repubhcanism and come out into the open as a radical and
socialist.
To be sure, there has been big changes in party alignment in
recent years. Both republicans and democrats have had their
radical and conservative divisions. Party loyalty is not as strong
as 1T was a quarter of a century ago.
The reason for this, perhaps, is that the two major parties
nave not been divided sharply on matters of policy. Free trade
is no longer the cry OF the democrats and the republican party
itself is divided on the policy Of what sort of a tariff law should
be enacted. There are still to be found free traders among the
democrats, but more favor tariff for revenue only and still 9TH
es favor a tariff wall high enough to protect home industry from
foreign competition.
This dimning of the line of demarkation between the re-
pubhcans and democrats has been followed by groupings within
the two parties. Thus, we have pegressives and conservatives in
both parties, the one favOring so-called progressive measures,
the other more inclined towards a policy of status quo. So, too,
we have In both parties a small but rather noisy group of radicals
who, when banded together, have been able to force a few radical
measures through congress. From parties divided on the ques-
ton OF vital principles, we have evolved into blocs within the par
ties representing, not the nation, but certain classes. This doubt
less is It reflection Of the unrest in Europe.
The recent election reveals that not only Big Business but
the majority OF the people of the United States favor cOnseTva-
after this verdict, that for some time, at least, radicalism will
have a slim following. We expect to hear less from Bob La Fol-
lette, now that the people have froWned ON him and party leaders
are trying to Squech him.

Texas Land Values Gain

TEXAS IS one Of three states that show gains in farm values
I over 1920, according to a recent agricultural survey. Values
for the country as a whole have dropped S1800O,O O0, 900, the
investigation shaws, with the heaviest loss attributed to lands
Commenting on the results, the report says that Western
irrigated lands make the best showing, taken as a whole. Sew
eral states where irrigation is extensive have nearly held their
own. This, it adds, is largely due to new irrigation projects that
have been going through the Improvement and investment stage
during the past five years.
"a number of Southern states" the report continues, "also
have made a good showing. Texas and Oklahoma are credited
with average land values slightly higher than the 1920 estimte."
The greatest decline is in the section where grain and live
stock are the principal crops, a section in which the bulk of the
which five years ago averaged $257 an acre, are now down to an
average of sl69. in Ohio similar lands are down to 500 from $lS2.
In Ohio the decrease is from 1923 to S148. South Dakota is
credited with a shrinkage of SO per cent.
The press accounts of the results Of the survey make no at
whole, but it is known that land values in many sections became
inflated during the period Of high prices that reached their peak
cotton rose to above 40 cents a pound, wheat values were soaring,
and most other products were at high levels. The initiation in
farm land values was a result of the large returns from products
of the sol. When farm products began to tumble, land values
also began to shrink. This year grain and live stock have in
ably will not reach the high levels of the first years Of the war.
1t is gratifying to know that Texas is more than holding its its
general agevarge. since these lands have enhanced greatly in
value during the five-year period.
