Pr0gressives In Being
New York Timesl

There IS no nonsense about Sena-
tor Norris and his fellow-Progressives
at washington. They do not propose
to delude themselves. All this talk
OF their losing their identity and
merging themselves in a great and
happy Democratic family under Roose-
welt does not appeal to them at all.
They have no idea Of letting their
lamb lie down with the lion-or the
tiger. Not for them the grand ges-
ture of getting up in the senate and
saying: I'VE who are about to die
salute you." The Progressives pro-
pose to keep very much alive. They
are going to organize separate party
throughout the country and for &C
ton IN congressman only the seven
ty-third. but, as they say ominous-
". succeeding congresses" Their
great work Is to be to fight off the
''reactionaries seeking to control the
Republican and Democratic parties"
This IS q sufficiently plain threat
to Mr.. Roosevelt. II he does not ac-
cept their whole program they will be
against him as bitterly and continu-
ously as they have been against Pres
ident Hoover. To be sure, they prom
ise to cooperate freely with the in
coming administration" but this is
solely on condition that it seeks to
put thoroughgoing Progressive pro-
gram into effect" II the Roosevelt
administration does not do that, the
Progressives are ready to borrow the
language Of Charles Francis Adams
when minister to England at the time
Of our Civil war. and say: 1T would
be superfluous for me to point out
to your lordship that this means war"
Il = obviously political war which the
Progressives are preparing to wage.
They have determined to keep their
organisation together and to enlarge

remain cool under this threat Of Pro-

Take Your Choice

In farm relief organizations, it
seems, you can pay your money and
take your choice, in line with the call
Of the old circus barker. Either that
or, in these times, make your choice
without paying . dime.
Three organizations have held state
wide gatherings here recently with the
protested aim of giving voice to the
farmers demands for relief. The first
was that staged jointly by the Farm
ers Union and the Farmers Holiday
Association. The second was that of
the Farmers Relief Conference, q
group which has accused leaders Of
the first meeting Of being self-seekers.
The claims and counter claims OF
these organizations are interesting but
they have yet to demonstrate their
effectiveness in helping the farmer.
That they made his demands vocal
Is hardly correct, since the woes of
agriculture were widely known before
any Of them met. That they had any
material effect on the actions of the
legislature Is likewise doubtful. Most
Of the legislation they proposed was
killed or rendered innocuous by
amendment before 1t finally was en-
acted.
There has been more than q hint
Of rivalry between the first meeting
and the second but what will come
Of It remains to be seen. II, as we
all are praying and hoping. better
times come to the farm, the upshot
Of 1t all will be nothing. Organiza-
lions born in times of stress have a
way Of disappearing when the stress
Is past.
Two years from now, let us hope,
the need and the desire for such
groupings will have passed and there
will be no need to contest for the
support Of the farmers Of the state
in connection with such enterprises.

GOOD CHEER FOR GRAND.
FATHERS

OF all the Affections Of good men
and women there are two which !
never could regard with equanimity.
namely, cancer Of the womb which
comes to so many mothers Of large
families, ana prostate obstruction
which ir,sidiously destroys the peace,
comfort and serenity Of grandfathers.
Both Affections are inscrutable UNI
less they are rewards conferred by q
malicious providence.
The application Of electro.surgery
to the relief of prostate obstruction
Is not novel idea. Independent, pro-
gressive physicians have been devel-
oping the technic of this method for
ten years or more. They have finally
consolidated their gains, SO to speak,
and given the fruits Of their studies
and experience with the newer meth
Cd to the profession.
In the preceding talk on this sub
ject the view OF one Of the leading
biologists was quoted-he believes the
standard surgical prostatectomy Is deS-
tined to become obsolete in 80 per
cent Of cases, whether the condition
be fibrosis, benign hypertrophy or q
malignant process.
Another urologiSt with large expert
ence in both the older surgical meth
cd and the newer electro-Surgical
method, concludes that the newer
method is effective in the majority OF
cases Of prostate obstruction, 73 per
cent of cases In which there was mod
crate enlargement being cured at one
sitting, q per cent requiring more
than one sitting.
The new method Is surgical, OF
course, but It Is all done through the
cystoscope, with cautery punch or
electrotome or electro
and no external incision.
Careful follow-up observations OF
patients who have undergone the new
method Of treatment showed that 70
per cent of them remained well and
free from any recurrence Of the old
trouble for from three to 10 years.
Surely that compares favorably with
any record the older method Of pros
tatectomy can show.
One Of the leading urologists. In the
symposium on the new method. made
this characteristic remark:
ut Is possible that 1t will sup.
plant perineal prostatectomy: It
will probably never completely
supersede suprapubic prostatec-
tony ...".
That sounds like the snorts we heard
from the brass throat specialists
when the diathermy method Of re-
moving tonsils was new. How these
def operators hate to see their trade
becoming obsolete!
Another urologist who has had per-
haps too much publicity contented
himself with asking what viii Be the
actual mortality, including the four
or six weeks after the sitting, during
which the slough is separating? That,
too. sounds strangely like the rhe-
torical questions asked by the brass
throat specialists about diathermy re-
moval Of the tonsils when that meth
Cd was gaining recognition as q hap
py alternative for the standard ton
sillectomy. This specialist insists that
the old Spanish methods are not OBJ

voice, "but l had to come. You

Ardeth put the key in the lock

A Statesman Dies


In the death of Senator Thomas ].
walsh, the nation has lost a ster-
ling public servant and one who car
RED on his shoulders the mantle OF
real craftsmanship.
In the changing political scene
there have been many different types
OF leaders. There are those who
watch which way the crowd Is going
and then get out in front Of it; there
are those to whom truth Is . virtue
to b cultivated only on rare occa-
sion; there have been all too few who
put principle above self or pelf and
who practiced what they preached.
Senator Walsh was one Of the latter.
II there was IN outstanding charac-
teristic in the man 1t was his unim-
peachable honesty, his moral and
mental integrity. With him right was
right and wrong was wrong. There
WAS no middle road.
Hence his persistency in uncovering
the oil scandals Of 1924. He felt the
nation had been mulcted and the
enmity Of men In high places did not
discourage his effort to prove it. He
uncovered situation which had little
effect on q case-hardened nation 1t
the time but which has loomed large
IA the light Of these recent years.
The place which he held in the
esteem Of all members Of his party
= indicated By his choice rs chairman
Of two national conventions. All fac
tons knew they would get q square
deal from "Tom" Walsh and there
have been few more sincere tributes
70 . man in public life than the spon-
taneous demand that he become .
candidate for the vice presidency
after the memorable battle over the
presidency in 1924. For more than
400 weary ballots Walsh presided over
the convention and at its close every
nne there was his friend.
A prohibitionist who drank dry as
well as voted that way, Walsh held
the respect Of his state which had re-
0ected the prohibition doctrine. His
fellow citizens In Montana knew him
to b sincere and his other qualities
eudeared him to them even when
they disagreed with him on the pro-
hibition issue. Later, when he con-
WINGED himself that prohibition would
not work. he changed his attitude.
During his long term Of service In
The senate Walsh became q power
there and he was expected to be one
of the biggest figures in the new
cabinet. His sudden death eliminated
the opportunity 70 render still more
service to q nation which he had
faithfully served for many years.
In = large measure this man from
our neighboring state was one Of the
truly big figures which the west has
produced In our generation. In the
senate he gave the west . distinction
which few other men have done. AS
. western state North Dakota shared
Chs glory. It mourns with its sister

THE Dalmatians, now partly Yugoslavian and
] partly Italian in their national allegiance,
have had . varied career in history, first pass
ing under the nag Of one nation, then anothen
At the time Of the outbreak of the World
War, the Dalmatians were part Of the Austrian
Empire, their coast along the Mediterranean
being Of vital importance to the AustrianA
The area Of the province is not very large, but
by its picturesqueness with many mountains
rivers and small lakes has always had q
romantic appeal to travellers.
The population. partly italian, partly Al
banian, partly Jewish and partly German, haa
been noted for the fine physique of the men.
The chief occupations OF the people have been
cattle raising, seafaring and fishing.
At one time Dalmatia was quite a sizeabl4
kingdom, but after it finally fell before tho
assault Of the armies of Augustus it had 4
varied career. After the fall of Rome, Dalma&

winding up IS q part Of Austria up until tho
