Those possessed of a "heart and a dollar" will find need for both in the stories of the Florida hurricane disaster. The load Red Cross has been asked for relief funds. Those of us in Eastern Oregon who know nothing of the terror of hurricanes can well affoid to have a part in this niuch lieeded relief. The Literary Digest, leading straw vote organ, has under taken to conduct the most colossal straw vote in history. It is sending out 1!) ,(10(1,(100 ballots. It may be that the na tional will can be determined by this means. The Digest has been skilful, or lucky, in some of its past efforts. It may be questioned, though, whether the game is worth so much trouble. The very factors that make this an unusually in teresting campaign year make straw voting just now wither futile. There is a new spirit of independence peiceptiKo in the present campaign. There is an unprecedented a:r. -j-.'. of ohanging from one party to miolhor,'and of seething v. .': ;n the parties. Probably more voters than usual do not kivv.v yet how they are going to vote. Their decision turns Ux.:i a complicated set of circumstances and unpredictable de elopnienls. WHAT MOW YORK 1 ARMFRK HAVE SAID Worcester (Mass.) Telegram -The formidnhility of Governor Smith as a presidential candidate will be conceded by anybody who knows his attractive person ality and recognizes his proved ability as an adminis trator of the affairs of the state of New York. P.ut the attempt to picture him to the agricultural west as one in peculiar sympathy and understanding of the problems of the farmer approaches the ludicrous. Nothing in the democratic platform or in Governor Smith's speech of acceptance gives color to such effort. And certainly the governor's affiliation, of which he is frankly proud, with Tammany Hall is scarcely an omen of promise to the corn belt. It is rather interesting to note how warmly the farmers of his own state of New York have responded to Smith candidacies. Here are things to remember. In all his period of office holding Governor Smith has never carried one strictly agricultural county in New York. In no election has he carried more than 10 of the f)2 counties in New York. In 1018 he carried only two counties outside the Metropolitan district. In 1920 he carried none. In li)20 he carried only nine. In l'.)21 he carried only one. In l'.l'Jd he carried only three. The governor is peculiarly the representative, as he is the product, of urban environment, lie is essential ly the representative of those who throng the subways, crowd the market places, of those who dance in more or less happiness upon the sidewalks of New York. He stands for the aspirations of the clamorous cities, for the "liberalism," which these cosmopolitan centers desire. This editorial from the Worcester paper tells a story that is Interesting to western farmers. If Smith's record in the governor's job is such that he has never had the support of agricultural counties, it may be significant in estimating the farm altitude of the country as a whole. It's city vs. country again, though the metropolitan interests and train ing of Smith is not to his discredit, lie had made an en viable record of success. It is simply that the tilings he is familiar with and experienced in are foreign to our needs and interests, "lie cannot be all things to all men" and he admits it. NKW VtiKK.
