While expressing their resentment against Hoover i by giving Roosevelt a majority of nearly fifty thousand .nation for r.n amicable diicuwijn of votes, they retained Steiwer, Republican senator, by giving j,hBlr '""tcuitie him a majority nearly as large.

Kan searched fever ishly for her own handkerchief, not to dry her own tears, but to wipe away the salt water that ran over Jervts' face as Ferdinand worked over him.

To this end a good deal of study has been devoted to determine at what age It Is best to immunize. It has been established that most Infants, at least thoae born to urban mothers, possess at birth a certain amount of natural rest stance to diph theria. This Immunity comes tn them from the blood of the mother. PORTLAND.

Sometimes the child takes literally lasts for about three months and then declines until about six months of age, when most Infants show a lous of their preventive Immunity. A few Infants hold on to their Im munity for as long as three years. It would appear, therefore, that . at about nine months of age the average child Is both ready for and requires immunization against diphtheria.

And she couldn't find her handkerchief. She com plained about it out loud. "I can't find -my handkercnlef." The last word was split in two by a choking sob. It was a devastating depth of misery to be sitting drying In. the dust, with Jervls scowling at her, and not to be able to find a handkerchief. "Is that why you're crylngf' said Jervls, " 1 If "''I thought you were dead!" eaid Nan: and as abe said It Ferdinand's hand came over her shoulder with a clean folded handkerchief. Jervls looked at her with gloomy dissatisfaction. What .was she get ting at? It would be a very good thing for her if he was dead, be cause sho would be free and quite well provided for. It was ridiculous to cry about it. But she had been crying. The wet on his cheek was blood, but the wet on his head wasn't. Had she been crying all over his hair?

I It is a far cry from that first oc 'caalon 144 years ago when the hand full of citizens of the original 13 states trudged through the mud. on foot, on -horseback, or rode on queer- looking vehicles drawn by horse or oxen, to cast their ballots for George j Washington for president of the (United States of America. . j - To them things seemed mightily , complicated. -Only a -few months be fore that" election their delegates to -ithe continental congress had sweat ;blood for days and days seeking: to i Iron out the conflicting Interests ; which stood In the way of agreement 'among the' confederated states upon 'a common constitution.

We have progressed, so to speak; but the prob lems of human relationships have re mained the same else that docu ment which we are pleaded to speak of as Immortal, the constitution these United States, would not be so adaptable to the nations every need today as when originated by that earnest, far-seeing group of statesmen who framed it.

Oregon City Enterprise, THE STRAW VOTE NUISANCE We agree with the Pacific Rural Press that the straw voting business has grown to be a pest. It Is not because the. results of the most am bitious poll, is adverse to the favor ite candidate of this paper; but be cause the straw vote takes away a lot of the glemoc of an election. It robs the election of its surprise ele ment. What fun can there be In a count If the result has 'already been predicted -with accuracy? If con tinued on big enough scale elec tions will ybe almost as empty of meaning-aa the session of the elec toral college. Sayr. the -Rural Press : Straw 'votes are getting to be a , nuisance,: "Wo suspect that 'me man with "sore teeth," both upper and lower, who always writes for the free samples of tooth paste, is the type of person who votes early and often in straw vote tests. If straw votes are an accurate Index -then elections are unneces sary duplication. If they are not a true reflec tion of sentiment then the straw votes are a fifth wheel on a wagon which needs only four wheels. ; . Besides which they are pestif erous. : ,v We do not know how to stop the nuisance. It will probably wear it self out.'i Meantime the public will have to -put up with it.

O., Nov. 10 (ffVut of the Democratic .sweep In Tues day's election, Ohio Republicans ap parently had salvaged three offices stato treasurer, auditor and attorney general. After trailing by several thousand votes In 'earlier returns, John W. Brlcker, the Republican candidate, or attorney-general was given a lead over his Democratic opponent, Her bert S. Duffy, when Cuyohga county completed Its tabulation last night. With only 27 precincts missing out of the state's 8678, Brlcker was ahead by 366 votes In the unofficial count. The re-election bf Joseph T. Tracy and Harry S. Day, Republicans, -as state auditor and state treasurer, re spectively, appeared certain. All other Democratic candidates for state offices were carried to victory with the landslide which gave Ohio's 26 electoral votes to Governor Frank lin D.
