EXHIBITION OPEN
NOW AT BRAWLEY

which beggars description. All the
exhibits are worthy of praise, but
especially so are the fruit
exhibits of Chris Westgard, the cit
rus display shown by the Barbara
Worth Packing house and the Blue
Goose grapefruit. Westgard s ex-
hibit as usual presents striking
appearance, with mammoth pome-
granates, grapefruit, oranges and
tangerines.
Near the extreme end Of the tent
is the exhibit of the horticultural
commissioner department, calling
attention to the necessity of eradi-
eating weed and rodent pests. The
booth is attractively arranged, with
lighting effects, and the exterior is
covered with samples of weed and
rodent pests against which the
rancher is urged to make war.
Agricultural Exhibits
Adjoining this exhibit is the
splendid one devised by the agricul-
tural extension service AID the Melo
land experimental station. These at
ford the rancher opportunity to see
what the state is doing to aid him
in growing better crops at a bet
ter profit to himself.
The Neloland farm center has an
exhibit that is worthy of more than
passing comment. A most inviting
bower covered with evergreens
houses reproduction of Meloland,
showing the Holton Interurban, the
Meloland store and school, the state
highway and ranches adjoining.
Shows Valley Ranch
Even more unique than the Nelo-
land booth is the one arranged by the
Spruce farm center. This is with,
out doubt tn prize exhibit of the
show. 1t shows q miniature repro,
duction of an Imperial Valley ranch
complete with grapefruit orchard
lettuce field with paper caps, and
growing lettuce, a dairy herd and
even duck pond, with ducks ready
to hop into the water. Beyond the
cultivated ranch is shown the de
sert as it was before tie coming OF
water. The. grapefruit trees look
so real that the observer will be sur

by cutting up sponges, dyeing then

The Season for Deer
and Manslaughter

With the opening of the deer shoot
ing season in California come warn
ings from the press of the danger of
mistaking gunners for game. and Sc
firing a shot at any living thing large
and active enough to make a noise
or movement among bushes. or in a
clump of young trees.
Every year lives are lost because
of such criminally reckless shooting,
but seldom or never is the offender
prosecuted and convicted Invariably
he is exceedingly sorry; would
sooner have sacrificed his own life"
than that of his companion or even
of a stranger. And this bitter regret
enables him to escape punishment for
manslaughter.
IF you can't see the horns you have
no right to shoot" is one paper s
timely warning.
That would protect the does as well
as prevent homicide, if all deer hun
ters lived up to it.
But a host of such hunters are far
more eager to allow no buck to es
cape than to be sure they are right
before firing.
In fact, many of the reckless seem
disposed to regard the chances of be-
ing shot as among the inevitable
"perils of the chase.
The best, and perhaps the only eff
fective, warning in this regard Is
prosecution and conviction of every
offender who takes a human life 'by
mistake" merely to crafty zest for
sport. Fresno Bee.

Arlington County.

The Arlington Memorial Bridge will
easy passa ge between the Capital and
the profoundly impressive national
cemetery, but it will be a main en-
trance to Washington. from the West
and South. The building of boule-
ward connecting the bridge with Lee
highway and the construction of
other roads will aid in making a city
on the hills, in the wales and on the
plateaus south of the Potomac and
close to Washington. This result of
the building of the Memorial Bridge
and a boulevard from it to Lee high
way was emphasized at a recent meet
ing of people of Arlington County.
There has been a large growth of
territory in Virginia. There has also
been a great growth of population in
Washingtons Maryland suburbs, and
the greatest population growth and

Arlington County has great future
and it has its problems. Not long ago
homes were far apart with a village
here and there. Scores of villages
have grown on tracts which ten years
ago were fields or wood. Many of
them, with the older villages, have
grown until they join. Each has de-
veloped on its own street plan, and
there have been conflicting concep-
tions of what a village should be. In

Gov. Smith Joins the Fight.

Gov. AL Smith ran down to New
York City from Albany yesterday and
sat in" at conference of the ex-
ecutive committees of Tammany and
the Bronx Democracy with reference
to the mayoralty contest. He pledged
himself to fight to the limit for the
Tammany Bronx ticket, headed by
State Senator Walker, as against the
Hylan- -McCooey nominees. He indi-
Gated, though not in explicit terms,
a determination TO combat the Hearst
influence, which he alluded to as an
alien factor. He thus cast down the
gage of battle.
This incident discloses the signifi-
canoe of the present mayoralty fight
in New York as a factor in the ma
tional political equation. Smith is a
Tammany man, and upon Tammany's
control of New York City depends
largely his own claim to State leader
ship and pre- eminence as the leader
of the Eastern Democracy. If Tam
many is beaten in the primaries next
month through the nomination of
Hylan, the governor will suffer in his
prestige. If, on the other hand, Hy-
Ian is beaten for the nomination and
runs as an independent. as he now
hints he will. and in consequence the
Republican coalition ticket is elected
in November, the feud between the
Smith Tammany organization and the
Hylan-Hearst Democracy will be in
tensified. Inasmuch as the governor.
according to present plan, is to com
pete next year for the senatorship now
held by Mr.. Wadsworth, this local
mayoralty fight has a decided ma
tional significance.

licans, have stood against the admin
istration and continue so to stand.
Young Bob" La Toilette will enter
the Republican primaries with his
fathers organization strongly behind
him. The organization realizes that if
it falters and loses in this struggle it
stands to lose much more: that in
deed, the machine built up by the late
Senator La Toilette will disintegrate
rapidly if its foes gain the advantage.
Prior to the convention in Oshkosh
Yesterday there were threats of dissen-
sion among the stalwarts. Former
Gov. McGovern announced his candi
daCy for the Republican nomination
for the Senate. and declared he would
make the race no matter what the
convention did. 1t remains to be seen
whether he will carry out this threat.
McGovern at one time was a strong
La Toilette man. He broke away in
1912, however, to follow Theodore
Roosevelt and the Bull Moose party.
Should he make the race for the nom
ination he probably would draw
strength from both Wilcox and La
Toilette
The primaries for the senatorial
nomination will be held about Septem-
Der %, and the election itself early in
October. The indications are that La
Toilette. jr., will not heed the criti-
cisms of the stalwarts and run as an
independent progressive. leaving the
Republican primaries to the so-called
regulars. His father before him al
ways ran as a Republican, except dur
ing the last presidential campaign,
when he offered himself to the voters
of the country as an independent
progressive. In the early days of the
senior La Follette's struggle for politi-
cal supremacy in Wisconsin the sug-
gestion was made by some of his
friends, and by all of his enemies,
that he should announce himself as
the candidate for governor as an in
dependent. He vetoed the suggestion,
however, insisting that the Republic
ans of the State had a perfect right to
oust the then Republican machine if
they desired and still retain their Re
publicanism.
1t is a quarter of a century since
the late Senator La Toilette first be-
came Governor of Wisconsin and
launched a legislative program that
changed vitally the laws of Wisconsin.
providing for direct primaries and
levying heavier taxes on the railroads.
For years prior to his election as gov
ernor La Toilette had waged a bitter
fight against the Republican organiza-
tion of the State. Now the boot is on
the other leg. and an effort is under
way to overthrow the La Toilette or
ganization, the progressive outfit of
the State. The strength of the Repub-
lican national organization will be
placed back of the stalwarts il the
contest. The fight between progessiv-
ism and conservatism proceeds.

Wisconsin Republicans.

Regular Republicans of Wisconsin.
the "stalwarts," have selected Roy p.
Wilcox of Eau Claire to make the race
for the Republican nomination to fill
the uneXpired term of the late Senator
La Toilette. The lines are drawing
closer in the struggle which is to
come between the stalwarts and the
La Toilette organization.
The selection of Wilcox to make
the race against Robert La Toilette.
Jr.. who will be the candidate of the
prosressives and the La Toilette fol-
lowers, was made at a convention in
Oshkosh arranged for by a so-called
executive committee of the regulars.
The Republican organization of Wis.
consin, however, is in the control of
the La Toilette people, and has been
for years. La Toilette. jr., for ex-
ample, is chairman of the Republican
State central committee.
The plea of the anti-La Toilette Re
publicans of the State, voiced bv
Senator Lenroot at yesterdays con-
Vention, is that the Republicans name
a man to make the race for Senator
who will support the Coolidge admin
istration, who will stand four square
with the national Republican organi-
Zation This plea doubtless would be
more effective in d State where the
voters had not become accustomed to
choose as party leaders men in direct
opposition to the national organiza.
ton. AS a matter of fact, the Repub-
lcan party in Wisconsin in recent
years has had little in common with
the national Republican organization
beyond the name. Senator La Fol
lette, the leader of the State for a
quarter of a century, was not the only
member of Congress from Wisconsin
who opposed the policies and the can
didates of the national Republican or
ganization. Representative John M.
Nelson, the La Toilette manager in
the last campaign. has headed the in
surgent Republicans in the House.

many others, all elected as Repub.

Reducing the District Budget.

It must be assumed that the in
structions of the President TO Gen.
Lord, director of the budget, that the
District appropriations must be held
to a maximum of S36 250 600. a re
duction of nearly $4,000 from the
present estimate, is based upon the
supposition that the substantive law
governing District maintenance, which
establishes a ratio of 60-40 District
Federal contribution. will be main
tanned. On no other hypothesis is
there warrant for a Federal mandate
10 hold the District budget down. The
President is, of course, concerned in
the reduction of the Treasury eXpend-
itures. on the 6O-40 basis the Gov
ernment's share of a 10000 900 Dis
trict budget, to state the present
estimates in those terms, would Sc
100000. At the same ratio the
Federal contribution to a $50, ,250 900
budget would be S14,50O,O00. To make
the cut which is now directed would.
on the 60-40 basis. save the Govern
ment $500, 900.
If the lump-sum principle is to be
carried into effect for the fiscal year
1927, there would be no saving to the
Federal Treasury by reduction such
as that proposed unless the lump
sum were materially increased beyond
the 50 900 900 of the two latest en-
actmentS. The sum of SO 600, 900 is
40 per cent Of So, 500, 900 Thus. to
bring the District budget within the
scope of possible Federal economy on
the S9,000,O 900 lump-sum payment plan
II would be necessary to reduce it to
below S22,500,0O0. or approximately
SO 900, 900 less than the current ap-
preparation. Such a reduction is in
conceivable. 1t would cripple every
municipal activity, would stop every
work of public improvement, would
set the District back many years in
its development and progress.
The President and the director of
the budget read the substantive law
relating TO the maintenance of the
District as directing a definite pro
portionate contribution of Federal
funds They cannot in equity con.
template an indefinite and regular
continuation of the lump-sum plan.
The decision to limit the budget TO
$36 $50 900. as submitted to Congress,
is thus to be regarded as a recon-
mendation TO Congress that the def
mite proportion principle be restored
in practice instead of being merely
maintained as substantive law, TO be
annually set aside.
4 reduction of the estimate by SO
10000 will entail many material
changes in the schedule of proposed
expenditures. 1t will cut the allow
ances for numerous projects and for
municipal departmental maintenance.
The Commissioners have no recourse
but to follow the mandate and make
the cuts to bring the total figure down
to the indicated point. They should
do so with good cheer on the as
sumption that this necessity is an
indication of presidential support for
the definite restoration of the 6O-4O
principle.

At the recent meeting of Arlington
County citizens one of the speakers,
Maj. Carey o. Brown, assistant direcA
tor of the Office of public buildings and
parks, said that while a certain
amount of development in the county
is contingent on the building of the

proper control of subdivisions by cen
trail authority, interurban trolleys and
busses, waterfront development, sani-
tation, parks and Fairgrounds, schools
and hospitals.
There was a strong suggestion of
certain developments which the Capi-

whose district includes Arlington
County, said that he would urge ac-
tion by Congress on such matters as
the preservation of the Palisades of
the Potomac, construction of a great
boulevard from Washington TO Mount
Vernon and construction of modern
bridge at Little Falls Under this pro-
gram the rocks and woods along the

British decision to pay a subsidy to
the coal industry to avoid a strike is
generally regarded in this country as
unsound from an economic stand
point. The action of Premier Bald

House of Commons, however. has re-
ceived some commentator as a means
of averting a disastrous struggle over
wage reductions. On the whole, there
is strong feeling that the govern

about it which foreshadows a restora-

1.-The many and manifest objections
to a coal subsidy are emphasized by
the Philadelphia Inquirer, which con-
tinues: "It was perfectly clear from
the beginning of the negotiations with
the miners and operators that Mr..
Baldwin was opposed to it on prin-
ciple. But the alternative was too dis
astrous to contemplate.
The danger of a coal strike has
been averted," says the Pueblo Chief
tain, but in a manner that has re-
moved neither the pressing political
dangers nor the economic catastrophe
that seems impending. If Great Brit
ain has to sell coal at less than the
cost of production in order to meet the
competition of foreign miners the ma
