Let the United Kingdom become a republic and the . empire's dominions be come autonomous states in a vast federated republic, and Ireland's republican aspirations would be measurably satis fied without a resort to separation and full independence, i " i This js a concession, however, which the British people apparently regard as beyond the bounds of political sanity. Abandon their monarchy, their throne, their king, their royal family with its princes .and princesses and all the parapher nalia of an ancient ceremonial in Parliament and govern ment? As well one might suggest turning Westminster ab bey into a motion-picture house! Yet the British people are far, better prepared" for a republic than the" Germans or the Austnans were, and, tne .British helped to iorce repuoiican forms of government on their great enemies in Central Eu rope. hThe monarchial tradition of the central powers had never been broken, while that of England had been tempor arily smashed by Cromwell. If Germany can get along with out the Hohenzollern family, what makes the present royal family of Great Britain so indispensable to a self-governing and democratic people? The empire, it is ordinarily urged, reauires the crown toehold it together, but France has a great colonial empire held together under a republic. ! Republics are in fashion. Only a few kings are left in the world. I xWhy should the people of Great Britain tax themselves i for the great expense of maintaining a royal house that does little PYcentinor rpt. the stvles of hats and coats and socks and ; neckties? We find the conservative Springfield Republican say ing: A -:v . ' v ''If the abolition of the throne could effectively promote the reconciliation between Great Britain and Ireland, its sac rifice Would be a very cheap price to pay for so necessary a consummation. The throne is nothing compared with the unity of the British isles." - i There' should be a pig club in every 'Community in the Salem district. . The local banks, mer chants and leading people should see to this. - ; More hogs, more corn, more cows, .more poultry, more money for the Salem district. The train of benefits will be a long one. ; Ambassador, liarvey shocked prim England by appearing on the golf course in his shirt sleeves. Editor Harvey has always fav ored thlrt-sleeve diplomacy. ! The three members of the new United States shipping board will draw a combined salary of $95, 000 a year. They come almost as high as the dollar-a-ycar men. A bill Introduced by. Represen tative Drane of Florida provides for a reconstruction of the cal endar to allow for 13 months, each with a Friday, the 13th, and a division of the year also into four periods of 13 weeks each. The bill is not likely to have any luck. 1 President Harcg says that if he had his life to live over again he would still . make newspaper work his profession. Under the circumstances It would seem un grateful for htm to repudiate it. ; It will be the duty of the Sa lem slogan editor to prove in The Statesman of next Thursday that this city is an educational cen ter. If you can "help, please do so. I Under the slogan "Never Again War!" a score of nation wide or ganizations i In Germany are to hold demonstrations this month. There are peculiar . reasen why the cause is popular In Germany but r nowhere In ; the world (are there lacking good and 'sufficient reasons. - , t ,'-'- Mrs. Catt is quoted as saying In effect that the senate won't change its mind about the League of Nations and that It is foolish to try to make it But the sen ate changed its- mind about jro man suffrage after many years of standing pat. HARD TO CONVICT. The only way to convict any of those German officers being tried in Germany tor offense against humane warfare Is to find that he has made fan : of the kaiser.

The Salem district is aa much the center of the ev ergreen blackberry industry as of the loganberry industry of the world. S Hurry up call: Listen! A man was looking for 300 broccoli plants yesterday in Sal?m. inquiry was made by phone of all who had announced 8urr-l: broc coli plants for sale and all were sold out. If there are any left, will those who have them pl?as send word to The Statesman. They will be advertised free or cost. The selling1 of the surplus plants shows that th?re will be a much larger acreage in the Salem district than has been estimated. Salem has In one year become the broccoli center of the United States, and if all goes well there will be a lot of money for distri bution here lor the broccoli crop in February and March. m Night before last there was an auto party at th? Salem auto camp grounds from Maine. Flori da, California and Washington- the four corners of the United states represented, and about 70 outfits besides, from all the coun try in between. Yesterday anoth er: family moved from me camy grounds to a West Salem home that had been purchased. JUBILATION STAGED i AFTER VOTE COUNTED I (Continued from page 1.) roll call was not demanded. A moment later, Chairman Fnrrinev trvincr to make him self heard above the din which prevailed during three hours of voting, announced that sentiment in the committee of the whole against attacK incr asnrmlt had been so over whelming that it wasn't worth while to go through tne iorm of calling the roll. More than 200 committee amendments, rushed through rlnrinff the last few days wen put up to be voted on in a block. Some merely correct ed spelling in the bill and some changed the rates, but the Democrats, still homing tneir forces in line compelled a rec ord vote. Ire-Var lays Recalled. Just before the time came to pass the bill, Representative Gar ner of Texas, ranking Democrat on the ways and means commit tee, stepped to the front with the expected motion to send the bill back to its framers with Instruc tions to strike out the American valuation and reciprocal provis ions. This Was where the Re publicans and Democrats divided squarely on the whole tariff Is sues, although they had split widely on some of the earlier votes. 'It probably was the first time since war-time days that the house found itself with each a quorum on the eve of a vote. Fordney Cheered. Oosine the lone wranele over the bill. Chairman Fordney then brought Republican members to their feet by declaring it would bring greater prosperity to the country man u now enjoyeu The veteran tariff maker, thrilled by the demonstration, smiled and bowed and then wheeled about to wave to the galleries. The Republicans voting against the bill were Beck, Wisconsin; Gahn, Ohio; Knight, Ohio; Lara nert, Wisconsin; John M. Nelson, Wisconsin; Sinclair, North Da kota, and Voigt, Wisconsin. j Southern Democrat for Rill Democrats voting for it were Campbell. Pennsylvania; Dupre, Afartin, Favrot and Lazaro, Lou isiana; Lea and Raker, Califor nia. ; .! Representative London, Social ist, New York, voted against it. After the house had passed the bill and adjourned until Monday, Chairman Fordney and Represen tative Garratt of Tennessee, the acting minority leader, issued statements defending and de nouncing it. 1 Declaring the measure a "mon strosity," Mr. Garrett declared that the Democrats were given "Just five opportunities to win. and they won all five." Amendments lew. "If the bill had been opened up for amendment under th? general rules of the house," he added, "there Js no telling what would have happened to it. When I say five opportunities. I mean In the house itself. Of course, we had a few chancer in the com mittAA nf the whol and there we defeated the increase of duties upon leather, boots and shoes and upon cotton manufactures. "ThAro worn nnlv 22 lines Of the bill out of 8630 lines, read for amendment. Not a member cf the house except tne majority members of the wajs ann means committee had an opportunity even to offer an aaiendment ex cept as it was an amendment to a committee amendment. 'By such methods was Wis monstrosity passed. The day of retribution will come." Ad Valorem lowered. Although no direct comparison was made with rates in the Tayne Aldrich bill which figured so largely In the political discussion.. Chairman Fordney declared tie average ad valorem rates in his bill were silgh'ly lower. - -The passage, ol tho tariff tit: by tho house-with a rubstaniifci majority," Mr. Fordney slu marks the conclusion of an im portant step' in the return f Am rtcato the sound poUfy of pro- fordine enconraeement to busi ness and irotecting American in stitutions and the American stan dard of living, will increase cus tonis receipts of the government, ft will yield 'when enacted close u4509,000,000 annualiy. and the r.verage ad valorem :ate of duly on total imports wU' probably be Filghtlv below the average of lnt 'ariff of lStOS."
