M For., they say the! La Follette-Soeialist platform proposes pnly the submission tif a constitutional amendment to nullify the fundamental function of the Supreme Court; and that the adoption of such an intendment would be a long and difficult process." :'! . ;v i;- ! - '' J . But the danger is not so remote as these people would like to-make it appear to he ordinary voter. i . , The position of Jj& Follette, Debs and other radicals is thai' in voiding any ajft of Congress on the ground that it is in violation of the Constitution, the Supreme Court exercises a USURPED POWER. M . I , w; It is their positior that the Supreme Court has no constitu tional right to declare an act of Congress unconstitutional M? And this being the case it would be the SWORN DUTY of La Follette, or any other President of his way of thinking, to challenge this alleged usurpation at the first opportunity. Now the Supreme Court has no power to enforce its man dates, and a President who held suoh a mandate unconstitu tional, aad therefore of no binding legal force, could, and under hi oath of office would be OBLIGED TO REFUSE to enforce it. -The President is commander in chief of the army and navy. He appoints, directly r indirectly, every federal law enforcing official. With the support of Congress which, provides the r toney with which to pay these forces, an executive order declar i 'z the decision of the Supreme Court to be in usurpation, and t erefore unconstitutional, WOULD NULLIFY THAT DECIS I )N AND PUT THE LAW WHICH THE COURT DECLARED I CONSTITUTIONAL INTO FULL FORCE AND EFFECT, i Chaotic conditions would result, it is true, but there would 1 i no method by which the power of the Supreme Court could be restored except through what Moscow calls counter, revolution.! I An administration ;which tookr "sucha position 'could never j 13 driven irom power; except, Dy. lis own yuiiuuu or oy urnieu I jrce, because unhampered by constitutional restraints it could take any steps necessary- to maintain permanent control of the government, regardless of public opinion legally expressed. ; Does any one familiar with the doctrines, the purposes and lis practices of the elements joined up with La Follette doubt for a moment that they would attempt just the action that is c.1 tuned above! - ? - s '' All this is a real, imminent danger. Ft I t - . a TWISTED EYE3' ' ''i -'-hP''': - (hob Angeles Times.) p: -': - - An eastern newspaper has an extended interview with a f jurist who expresses for publication his satisfaction at getting Lack into God's country after a trip to California and the Los Angeles desert.; Jn his case Odd 'a country consists of Red Wing, Ilinn.; which is in thej snowshoe belt. The natives put on their tarnuffs in October and leave them in place until May, when they take them off on, the chance that they can hear the ice go out.

There is r ot a blade of green grass to be seen in its whole length and 1 readth. Its fruit crops are completely ruined, although a few of those living in cities and having small gardens eke out life Tvjth a few vegetables. Business conditions are the worst ever Irnown. We met thousands of tourists, crowded four men to a car, all eager to get away from California.

It is admitted that a favorite sport cf the Ford tourist iri! an auto camp in swapping his mount for a better car, but there are few Rolls-Royce chariots going at $75. Vhile it is conceded that southern California has had very little rain this summer, it is harsh to conclude that business is ruined.

BO DISGUSTING It ought to be criminal for a man running for a high position to so discredit his government that it tends to discourage youth and cause them to lose their high ideals. Senator Wheeler In a pub lic address says he found the de partment of justice reeking with corruption. This is a common, everyday, deliberate lie, and Wheeler knows It. There wasn't a thing proved on even Daugherty. Goodness knows this paper has never defended Daugherty and is not going to do so now. He is a man who should never have been in the cabinet, and it is better for the administration to have him out, but it must beadmitted that nothing definite was proved on him and the perjured case built up against him is fast falling to pieces. ; - Si. That Investigation, cruel, re vengeful and malicious ought to forever damn any man who had anything to do with it. Senator Wheeler showed himself to be the most despicable man in America ia framing up against the public officials, and it ill becomes him now to talk of corruption. STARTING OYER LATE An eastern manufacturer at the age of 57 has turned his property over to his family and started life anew.. Most men are so tired at that age that" they want to quit. but this man is so full of pep that he wants to start all over again and have the zest of win ning his spurs. V: It can be done. We once knew a man who failed in business at the age of 66. Did he quit? Not much. He bought a piece of land on i time, planted an orchard on a a. . . . 1 " a i.i,. ana every ooay; laaxaea na said he never would eat an apple off the trees. He lived to make a small fortune out of that orca ard. and with judicious Investment small at first, but larger later- he made a success in the next ten years of his life. - l! It is possible for any man who has retained his pep, who con tinues to wear his fighting clothes, to start out at 57 and get into comfortable circumstances. Some men just naturally can't make money.. Those will be hard up al ways, which unfortunately - in cludes most of us. Some men have a faculty for accumulating money and these v.en can start at any age. ..ere, and make money. It Is largely the individual and his trend of mind, but fortunes are made every day by men over 57 years of age. BRIAN D AND WAR It la mighty good news that Mr. Briand, the great French states man, has pronounced against war. Prance has been reluctant to make this admission, and yet France could afford a war less than any nation on earth. Another war would ruin it, and when France is ruined it will be divided up. The world Is getting away from war. Men are learning that it doesn't pay, and when anything doesn't pay it is going to be dis couraged.- TOO BAD America loves the sport of base ball. It has thrown up its bat and hollered in every hamlet as well as city In the country. A few years ago it was proved that games were being thrown, and Judge Landis was Invited to be. the arbitrator. Unfortunately the trouble has not all. been cleared up yet. r " This past week two players were let out for bribery. It is a great pity that this game has become so commercialized that men use such depraved methods to make it pay. and evening, will be shown at the Grand. j In addition to Corinne Griffith and Milton Sills, the cast in "Sin gle Wives" boasts of Lou Tellegen, Henry II.

I j ICING RATES ARE ! ; STRONGLY OPPOSED i j (ContUnf4 from pm9 1 that the railroads are preparing to test' JLhe weight of lettuce crates with 'a view to'anbher Increase in revenues. The Idea, instead of i lowej-ing the rates, is to Increase the iiinimum in the cars. Experts agree that the railroads will be saved large sums on every car through the smaller quantities of ice required in the bumkers where there! is ice in the packages and oh t$e top. : ' I In filing a protest against the proposed action! in behalf of the Cbasi shippers, the committee wired tnat the total cars of veget ables! affected would be approxim ately 40,000, as thatc many cars werei shipped from California for the 18 months ending July, all requiring body icing. Thie wire which the committee sent gave details of the shipments of various vegetables at the firat half vol this year, which were ap proximately 18,000 cars. Of this qtianity, 6000 were i cauliflower and the balance mixed vegetables. The Jwire stated tha't practically ail these vegetables were handled with jj body icing. The proposed rules! would also affect 1.50O cars of Oifegon broccoli, 2,000 cars of Washlington lettuce, 500 cars of Idaho lettuce, 2,000 cars or Colo rado Jettoce, 3,000 cars of Arizona lettucue, 500 cars of New Mexico lettuce, as well as probably, 1,000 cars of mixed vegetables, peas and cauliflower from Colorado, all of whic are shipped under standard refrigeration with body icing. - T i i Last year California shlimod 10,000 cars of lettuce .under stan dard refrigeration, t another 3,400 ary and 1,600 with initial icing, all requiring body icing. . The first jhalf of this year California shipped 5,400 cars under standard refrigeration, 1,000 with initial Icing! and 7,000 dry, all requiring body j icing. The shipments of cauliflower and mixed vpc-Ptnhiea ' total beariy as much as lettuce.

In a communica tion to E. S. Briesrs. secretary of the American Fruit & Vegetable Shippers' association Chicasro. w are urging him to stress the fol lowing points in havlnir rule 241 canceled:. ' :,-.: "Tie broccoli or winter cauli flower industry attained no com mercial importance until icing in the body of the car on top of the load prevailed. This resulted In delivering broccoli in good con dition in eastern markets, bring ing about a reduction of railroad claims and constantly increasing the apreage of broccoli in Oregon. Broccoli is shipped under standard refrigeration, in addition to ton icing.; - - ,' "'We contend that ton iclne is equivalent to pre-cooling, and since a very small proportion of such dee" reaches destination, car riers fare not justified in charging freight. Inside Ice is always at shippers' expense and the cost of the Ice. provided a deterrent against shippers using more than is required to deliver' Derishables to destination in good condition. This inside ice also serves to les sen the refrigeration by the car riers (en route. !. "It! is obvious ; that the cooler the commodity within the car the less ice will be required In the bunkers en route, i Therefore we urge jthe carriers to take into con sideration the fact that broccoli has always been shipped under standard refrigeration; that Inside icing lis to the mutual advantage of both shippers and carriers, and Irk T FUTURE DATES I October 8 ta 15 YMCA campaign tdi $200,000 banding - . f October IO, Friday Reelta! at Wallet halt by Prof. Horace Rahakopf for bea efit of Salwra Wonien'a club home. .October 11-12.
