Roosevelt was seeking at the same
time to present a more complete pic
ture of his New Deal. By SO doing, of
course, he naturally can expect that
proponents of the reform ideas will
have something more to use in advo-
eating retention Of the changes. They
will not be in the dark as to what the
future holds. Many of them will
have added confidence, especially if
they have become bit shaky about
the course that the President is fol-
lowing. At any rate, if the Demo
Gratis emerge from the fall elections
with anything like their present
strength, the congress that meets in
January, 1885, will be as tractable,
or more so, than the present one. Any
one can see the President would be
unable to put over his New Deal with
out an obedient congress, hence he is
stalking that need, too, by disclosing
plans in advance.
Trouble Brewing
1t is not too much to say that there
has been tremendous stiffening Of
backbone in congress in the last sew
eral weeks. 1t has been more pro-
nounced, l believe, than at any time
since Mr.. Roosevelt took over the
reins. So there might possibly be
some trouble brewing on Capitol Hill.
This condition is regarded by some as
being the more clearly discernible be-
cause the President frankly said he
did not urge enactment of his propos-
ais at this session.
There has been no secret about the
fact around here that Mr.. Roosevelt
wanted to get congress out of town
at the earliest possible date. have
heard it suggested even that he had
hoped he could get the leaders to
bring about an adjournment before
the silver question got out of hand.
But that desire was lost, if he enter
tanned such hope. He has had to swal-
low some silver legislation which, it
is quite apparent, he does not like.
Political expediency made it neces-
sary.
No one here has been able to ex-
plain just why the silverites have
been able to muster so much strength.
There are only seven silver states
and from the political standpoint, it
is to be assumed that they cannot
WELD the power that is inherent in

far enough with his social reform
movements. It seems there can be no
doubt that he will be in a position to
know the temper Of the country after
the voters have heard his various New
Deal items discussed. And, it is being
suggested almost in the same breath
that if the voters strike down many
of the administration wheelhorses
and those who have stood by the New
Deal, the administration will not press
some Of the more far-reaching social
legislation in the series of messages
lately sent to congress.
Examining the proposals, such as
old age pensions, unemployment in
surance, revision Of MIRA principles
relating to minimum wages to meet
practical instead of theoretical con-
ditions, and several others, one can
hardly escape the conclusion that only
the submission of them at this time
when they will become fodder for
campaign debate will enable the coun-
try to know it's own mind. In other
words, as see the picture, If the
country as whole wants such far
| reaching changes in its laws, it will

STRIKES

Strikes and their accompanying
strike and bloodshed are terrifying
enough when we read of them taking
place in the industrial centers. For a
strike to break in a peaceful agricul-
tural community like ours, seems
worse, somehow And the sad part
of the whole strike idea is that the
results are so far-reaching. The
strike on the seacoast now under
way, has cost millions, not alone to
the ports and the adjacent cities, but
far inland into the agricultural sec
lions. A definite, recoverable loss
of millions is the result, with nobody
a possible gamer. The local strike,
in the cherry orchards, whether just
flied or not, has caused a distinct loss
not alone to the owner, but to the
workers, the townspeople, railroads,
consumers and the county and state.
The loss is many, many times as great
as the amount in question between
strikers and owner. 1t seems that in
general, as soon as group becomes
unionized, it feels that strike must
be called just to prove their power
or something.

Automobile Association. Six new, strictly
stock cars, were used-a different oil of
the same S. A. E. grade in each.
After the cars were broken in for $500
miles, theyrwere drained, examined and
fresh fill of five quarts put in each crank
case. No more oil was added. Then the
crankcases were sealed by an AAA official
The real test began. 1t was ordered that
they be driven at an average of 500 miles
day at so miles an hour until their motors
failed to operate. Oil No. 4 was first to
fail at 1,713.2 miles. Oil No. 6 failed at
l,764.4 miles. Oil No. ruined its motor
at 1859 miles; three of them were out
of the running. The next day Oil No.
failed to lubricate and, its motor wrecked,
stopped at 2,266.8 miles.
Two cars-two oils-still left in the test

3,318.8 miles, came to a shuddering stop,

by word and act demonstrate the faith
which made this Republic, and which
will preserve it.
In the midst of world turmoil,
Washington pinned his faith to con-
stitutional democracy. That stead
fast soul never wavered, never doubt
ed. In the midst of civil war Lincoln
declared that the government of the
people, for the people, and by the peo-
pie should not perish from the earth.
There is niche alongside of these
two immortal defenders of free gov
eminent for the brave American who
in his place of power accepts the
challenge of these apostles of terror,
avowed enemies of free government
and of personal liberty, and against
all Corners declares his faith in the
efficacy and the worth of the repub-
lican institutions and his determine
tion to maintain and preserve them in
all of their integrity at any cost and
at all hazards"
1t is to be noted that Senator Borah
made no reference to any individual
now entrusted with power. His chal-
lenge was to the New Deal in its en-
tirety, according to the opinions that
/ have heard expressed. From many
directions / have heard views that the
Borah speech probably would arouse
more fright among opponents of the
New Deal than anything that yet has
happened.

Smart Politics

President Roosevelt's determination
to advise congress at it leaves for
home after the current session, of
some of the things that he wishes to
present for its consideration next
January has injected new factor in
to the forthcoming political cam
paigns. Most of the careful observ-
ers here think his maneuver was polit-
ically smart. They take the view that
he actually has presented to the coun-
try and the voters the general out
line of his future legislative pro-
gram in order that he can have some
thing of mandate given the repre-
sentatives and senators who are
chosen in this falls elections.
/ haven't seen any signs yet that
will indicate how the Republicans and
other anti-Roosevelt forces will at
tempt to meet this new factor, but it
is quite apparent they will force de-
bate upon many of the projects of the
New Deal that have already been en-
acted into law, as well as the en-
bryo plans contained in his late mes
sages. Some leading thinkers around
Washington have suggested that Mr.
Roosevelt is taking advantage of the
natural attacks that will be promoted
by the opposition in order to ascer-
tain for himself whether he has gone

legislation affecting the more popu-
lous areas. But the silver bloc has
persisted in its efforts, has been re-
calcitrant in many ways, and it new
er was licked completely. As far as
am concerned, cannot see where it Is
going to be of any particular help
But the silver advocates tell me
am wrong, and whatever else may be
said, their vows forced Mr.. Roosevelt
into corner where he had to take q
small dose of silver medicine.
1t was easy to see a week or Sc
ago that if the President had been
able to stall off the silverites little
longer, he would have succeeded in
getting an adjournment before he was
compelled to agree that the country's
money should be backed by 25 per-
cent of silver coin or bullion. Finan-
cial sharps assure me that actually
the legislation on silver will do moth
ing more than raise the price temper
arily to those who have silver to sell.
Borah's Outbreak
Senator Borah's recent outbreak on
the Presidents proposal for author
ity to negotiate reciprocal tariff
agreements with foreign nations is
typical of the dangers confronting
the administration in session where
adjournment is too long delayed. Sen
ator Borah, though Republican and
a member of the minority in congress
has strong following in congress and
throughout the country. When he
arises in his place, therefore, and
challenges the administration, urges
the country to return to constitutions
al government and says there is ca
niche alongside of Washington and
Lincoln" for a brave leader to pre-
serve free government when Sen
ator Borah makes that challenge, a
good many persons are going to ask,
whittier are we going? The Borah
speech was such a ringing call for
clear thinking that believe his con-
Guiding paragraphs are worthy of re-
cording for further dissemination:

and efficient in all instances. And now

other time in our history, we should

POETIC SPRINGTIME
BRINGS HEADACHES
TO ROAD ENGINEERS

To some persons, spring means
blissful love, ira la, ira, la; to others
it means tender, rhapsodic poetry,
dor near-poetry). It spells new hats
for the ladies, if they're lucky. and
planting time for the farmers. To the
maintenance engineers of the state
highway department, however, spring
means that season when a certain
type of truck driver insists he can
haul ten tons over a highway which
has been restricted to three-ton lin
it.
Furthermore, this same type Of
truck or bus man, says highway de-
partment bulletin, is firmly convinced
that if his particular load isn't per-
mitted to go through without inter-
ference, goodly share of the states
population will starve or otherwise
perish within IL hours.
At this season numerous stretches
of road are restricted as to the load
limits which they can carry, says
the bulletin. "The highway depart
ment places these restrictions in force
because heavier loads will pound the
soft roads to pieces and cost the tax
payers thousands Of dollars in unnec-
essary expense A good gravel road or
light bituminous surface can be ruined
for a whole season by too heavy
loads during the spring breakup.
,.'The department is beseiged with
pleas to make special exceptions for
loads of groceries, loads of cattle feed,
school buses, timber loads and almost
every other commodity. The depart
ment cannot make exceptions. Either
the roads must be restricted to all r
they must be left open to all and in
the latter case this would mean that
they would shortly become impossible
to even light traffic. Two or three
small trucks can be used instead of
one overweight truck to get loads
through and passengers cars can re-
place school buses temporarily when
necessary to preserve the roads at
this season."
