Then along comes the declaration by the head of the department of therapeutics of a western college of medicine that 'coffee increases both mental and muscular power and less ems fatigue So we give three lusty cheers for Bahia, Brazil.
 Next comes the dire information that women are ''racketeering" along the Mexican border. They buy per fumes and cosmetics in Mexico, where they enter from France duty free and then foist them off on an American department store as Ire turned goods" The profit lies in the duty which is being collected by the smuggler instead of by Uncle Sam.

And we should get up and run around the desk six or seven times for that, In the first place We didn't know they had bobcats in Washington. In the second place we didn't know that they paid bounty on their pelts or epidermis or what ever the bounty hunters pay bounties on. And in the third place, we dldn care anyway. So there.

 superabundance of force in carrying

 q temporary stoppage of the cam. paign which has had repercussions all over the world. And even under 1 the circumstances no effort is prom sed to discontinue the nefarous work where a majority Of the population" favors it. The only ces-

Political War Horses Seem to be at Their Knitting

seem to be at Their knitting
 Thus far and up to the moment, this has been a painless election.
 No one has any wounds or scals. Nobody has been insulted. Nobody las said or done anything at which anyone else could take insult, not 70 mention umbrage. AS elections go, least interesting we can recall. Can. didate have been sitting knee 70 l,nee in offices and explaining wh? they are running and that when they said they didn't intend to run they really didn't intend to, but some thing came up and changed their mind and now after all they've de- cided to run but it's all going to be the friendliest battle and may the best man win. ha ha and ho ho.
 It is probable that words may bc hurled next week. Candidates Barc- lett and Quigley have announc ci that they would address the borge- oise at the factory gates and teil them how this city should be a1- ministered, In the excitement of the moment, certain statements are bound to be made which will e4t the party Of the other part hoppin : mad. Badinagc begets bitterness. He is an unusual man who can maintain a calm and ordered mind in the midst of, political campaign in which he is interested. Candi- dates for office are sensitive - po- litical reporters use the term thin shinned-and strongly resent an! reflections on their ability. integ- rity or sincerity. One word, and it doesn't have to be a polysyllabic word either-can stir up a lot Of argument and as argument waxes the hail fellow well met stuff melts and doesn't appear again during th1 campaign.
 Just as the world is waiting iol the sunrise, as the song writer ds- sures us, it is also waiting to havg Mr. Quigley open up. Unless he ha: reversed his tactics, he is about dul to unlimber some weighty state nents and cast them in the teeth O. Mir. Bartlett. Mr. Qugley ncv4. has been silent campaigncr. H. waves away the thought of sitting or the old front porch and waitls F fol the voters to come up for q shake and chat on the condti1r .1, a go getter-and sometimes q goa; getter-aild for this reason he aug a silent campaign arc strangers.
 Mr. Quigley, who has his share ot political acumen, must realize tha; it would be to his advantage to gc' busy and noisy. Mr. Bartlett. sup. ported by the republican organize. tion, has the machinery by whici contests are won. He has plenty ol money at his back and many liel:. tenants who will take q warm anl personal delight in contributing ,t the defeat of Mr. Quigley if it car be accomplished. Therefore, Mr Quigley will find it necessary to stir himself and to do something to ad. Vertise his presence in the primary battle. He always has been success. ful in taking an appeal straight tt the people. He knows how to g" | black in the face and how to wor' himself up into q latbcr of indgn1 tion. He has personal magnetism, the kind that appeals to people, tic kind that makes them want to joi: his army and march on to the fray

candidate in the field-Mr. Quigley has a temperament remotely com- parable with that of the present Mayor And We have no doubt at all that if Mr Quigley were nomin- ated by the Republicans and sue ceeded in defeating Mr. McDonough that the air would be stirred on many an occasion during the next two years.
 One of the burning public ques- tions' that has not yet been solved is the sewage disposal system, upon which Mr. Quigley has definite ideas that are not in conformity with some other ideas on the subject. Re- gently word went out from the state that the city would have to do something about this problem, and some considerable impetus to take action was reflected in City Hall. II is more than likely that this ques- ton will have to be finally solved during the next administration, so that whoever is elected mayor Is certain to have much hard think ing to occupy his mind.
 Not only that. but the extension Of the water system is likely 10 bc carried forward with more speed, something which. it is true. is under the aegis Of the Water Commission, but as the public provides the money 10 pay the bonds the Mayor is cer- tainly more or less interested and his views cannot be slighted.
 It is useless to take up the null titude of minor problems. some Of which still remain only partly solved or are not beyond the stage of dis cussion. New ones are constantly added. X Mayor needs to study them all and be conversant with every detail. It is q position of trust tha. citizens should not fill without thought as to the character, views and mental tendencies of the can, didates prepared to offer their serV- in.e 1,,J tbaj,
 The city is fortunate in possess. ing mayoralty aspirants on the tick cts who have indicated in the past that they are worthy of trust, thus lessening the possibility of the cleo torate blumdering regardless of who is elected. We think. because of the | lack ol factionalism within the ! Democratic party and the extreme ] factionalism within the Republican ] party, that Mr. McDonough has q
 distinct advantage.
 How to make the best of this ad-
 vantage largely rests in the hands of
 Mr. McDonough himself, He prob
 ably will be at pains not to Say too
 much, rather "errine' upon the
 other extreme by saying little, let i ting the contenders upon the Eepub. | lcan ticket to do most Of the talk | ing before the primary. After that | event, when the Republicans have definitely made their choice for I i candidate, a thorough discussion Of
 pending and prospective important ' issues is necessary,

A QUIET CANDIDATE TACKLES ISSUES

When Mr. McDonough the oth.l day gave it as his opinion tha' Bernadottc Loomis, tax collector had been honest and efficient and should be reelected. he naturally in duced a comparison with the re- cent attitude Of the Mayor. Tin" Mayor. in his recent argument witt Mr. Loonis, did not question eithe' his honesty or his efficiency; wijat he was riled over was the beliet that Mr. Loomis was entirely too efficient n collecting taxes from folks who found themselves holding q rather heavy financial burden.
 We do not know, however whether Mr. McDonough had this kind of efficiency in mind when he referred 10 the tax collector. whether he agreed with the mayor a' the time, or whether he would take a like view it q similar issue con fronted him. lt would be asking too much. of course. for q candidate 'o eros. bridges before he arrived a' the bridgchcads. All We know, and all we need to know. is that in" Democratic candidate thinks well ot Alr. Loolr1is' activities as a pubic servant. This view undoubtedly will he shared by most citizens. being predicat4d upon the easily compre hended thesis that q tax collector exists to collect taxes, and if thcre is to be any differentiation shown in the manner of such collection, tha' is for the city administration to handle. In the late imbrogIio tn, handling was done in favor Of Nr Loomis on the broad general prln' ciple that to change the tax system was a dangerous proceeding, some thing akin to swapping horses il midstream.
 MT. McDonough, who is not in clined to talk about too many thing at once, is rcputed to possess pro :ressive ideas regarding one of th' moot questions of the hour-name ly. the school question. When MI PaonessA was writing letters an' statements attacking the methods o the Board or Educllion Mr. Me Donough kept discreet silence, b'I hi. friends let it be known that h was mol in sympathy with the pro -rccdinss.
