For large groups of the fifty-seven '"different- varieties of forces behind the La Follette campaign have been .pointing to the MacDonald government as a convincing example of the successful functioning of a government such fas they pretend to desire to establish in, the United States ; j i . I And, just as they were waxing eloquent over, their pretend ed shining example, the MacDonald government collapsed in a single night, and an appeal to the country; has resulted in a complete discrediting of the principles ior whiclrit storru. The MacDonald government goes down unhonored and unsung j Because that government ( had not done a single thing its advocates hoped it would do when it was. formed, j ; I - There was more unemployment under the nine months of the MacDonald regime than during any similar period in almost a generation. The government had not been able to create more jobs, to reduce the cost of government, to lower the cost of the necessities of life, to bring about better; living and working con ditions for the masses. m 1 L I The cost of living was higher in England and Scotland in September this year than it was a year! ago under the Conserva tive government replaced by the Labor government. Not a single piece of legislation in improving the condition Of manual laborers was passed by the MacDonald government. In short, the experiment was a failure. j The radicals, of course claimed that the as too conservative j They would be satisfied with hothing short of ; the Russian monstrosity. : ; , . . , S ; f ' ' . h ': But the important point to this' country is that the very government to which the radicals in the La Follette following pointed as a 'model for this country to follow has collapsed in their hands and left them holding the sack, j j Happily there is no danger of their experiment being tried in this country; but if such a thing could be imagined, it is plain T ri QT TH A A WStll I f VADll IV " A A KTI I I vr0 O T A wa I O n -" 1 m T Va At (' This campaign should be the last! Americans have to hear from La Follette with any serious semblance of alarm. His can didacy is proving a false alarm. 1 Labor government .Concerning the tariff commission's proposed reduction of 1 123 eents in the duty on Cuban sugar. President Coolidge promptly and laconically inquired: ''What proportion of domes tic fsugar is produced at a cost of more than 1.23 cents per pound t' President Coolidge knows that the producers of sugar in the United States must have the protection they are getting. He knows they did not ask for a reduction,! He knows the Cuban sugar barons did. He knows why. He knows they want to curb I the larger production of domestic I sugar; the spread of beet sugar factories. He knows why they want to do this. Not for the benefit of the consumers, but for their own greater profit, and he knows that they have now, one of the most stupendous aggregations of wealth in this country It is very fortunate for the sugar consumers of the United States that the election of Mr. Coolidge next Tuesday is! a foregone conclusion. Among other things, it will mean more sugar fac tories in the United States using beets and cane grown by American farmers,' Ultimately it will mean) a lower range of prices to. the consumers. .... ;M j;'. . ; ; ?. . OLD LINES RE-ESTABLISHED must simply -be ah effort made to confuse the public and set them TBe conservatives won in .ng-mixed utras to what is banDen- Jand by one of those strange oc currences in politics that can not oe explained but which happens. The r conservative party has just been returned to , power with a lear majority so it can legislate. The labor government was not a juccess. It was, not a fair try ut, as MacDonald was not a great leader. He had back of him a 'ninority party at best, but Instead 3f placating the co-workers in the iberal party, to which he owed lis election, he offended them and fried to force them to join the abor party. It did not work. Vhen the appeal was made to the o'untry the ; conservatives seized the opportunity to ask England to e careful,; considerate and econo mical. The result was the con servatives came back into their wn.1 i . j The radical element everywhere las had its swing and it has gone ar, but the people have always ttrned , t!o the more conservative parties. There has been many ef orts made to establish a third arty in America, but every time Vhen the radicals have secured ontrol the people-have returned the old parties. I It is so in Eng and and it Is so in America. A NEW ANGLE : , Just what the object is in st acking the bonus administration, .hen Tom Kay was out of office averal years before the law was Z3cted is hard to understand. It ing In state affairs.) This I is an od trick and politicians of the new school haven't been indulg ing in it., Rather we have been trying to get our voters to under stand the issues under discussion. We have tried to make them as plain as possible, rather than to. msddy the waters, j This bonus proposition, which is entirely dif ferent from anything the state treasurer ever did can have only one possible effect, and that is to becloud the situation.! A XEW WRIXKLE Something new has been sprung in Portland politics. 7A committee has been formed and money raised to attack the records of the vari ous candidates. One such commit tee yesterday- morning attacked the record of Mayor Baker and an nounced that another candidate would be put on the operating table and grilled this morning. Heretofore advertising has been entirely in support of the candi dates and not to teahem down, but advertising Is a great thing. Righteously used it will further any good cause; wrongly used it is open to question. PREVENT ACCIDENTS for caref ul We need to We! need a school neas in this country. teach ithe people the value of hu man life and also the value of property. II a man runs Into his neighbor's automobile accidentally he doesn't: think much of the crime unless the damages, happen to be great, but there are men who find it quite a sacrifice to lose $10. These men are the ones to he considered. There is no use talking, we have all got to culti4 vate carefulness. We have gone wild in this country in letting thing.) take care of themselves. PEDDLERS Every once in a while there is agitation against peddlers, and some mighty good agitation. Bus iness is hurt by these people who prey upon it. A peddler is a louse upon legitimate ; business. He contributes nothing to his country. He only takes from. The legitimate merchants bear the brunt of all community enterpris es; and pay their share( of taxes. They are entitled to be protected from irresponsible dealers. There is an effort being made to have an anti-peddler law in Oregon. It. is good agitation and one that has a lot of merit in it. MASTERS OP THE STORM Of inventions there are many, and it is rather hard to say which are good and which aren't. So many inventions have brought im possible things to pass that it is hard to doubt any of them. Just now a man claims to have in vented a process of stilling the waves and mastering the storms. There is no use in saying it can't be done. We have said that thou sands of times in this country and yet every time somebody has done it. All we can say now is that there is a great need in that line and we wish the inventor well. trines of the socialistic group with which he is joined with the con ditions existing in Russia today under soviet rule. Thomas H. Kay of Salem, re publican candidate for state treas urer, continued his attack upon the governor and State Treasurer Myers for their use of school funds in carrying on their campaign agaiitdt .Mr. Kay. Mr. Kay's ex planation and criticism was stated f with great clearness and;-force'and apparently set at rest a doubt ex isting In the minds of at least part of the audience Mr. Kay will speak tonight ajt the Salem arm ory, appearing on the same plat form with Mis3 Eleanor Harker of Indianapolis, who will discuss na tional issues. . f A; -qJ Steelhammer,! local com mitteeman from Marion county', presided at the meeting; SIM if 1111 His Neighbors Join in Say ing Their Confidence in Him Is Well Merited , J. W. Sadler, the well known Aurora merchant, is one of the democratic candidates I for the legislature from Marion;; county. Zeno Schwab and a hundred others of Mr. Sadler's neighbors have joined in the following en dorsement of his candidacy: ,'An unqualified endorsenent and pledge of support; thia is the attitude of friends and acquaint ances of J. W. Sadler with refer ence to his candidacy for the state legislature. - j; "Mr. Sadler has been nominated SECRETARY AVALLACE Henry C. iWallace, secretary of agriculture, who just died, was not a great man, but he was a very useful one.' He served wher ever he was placed. The result was that "he was a great help to agriculture and did much: to en courage1 the farmers to continue when they were depressed. He devoted his life to agricultural in terests and became an expert in helping them to help themselves. The mayor of Seattle seems to be a pretty hard citizen, and yet he represents the majority in that city. The reports that come from Seattle are not encouraging. It is the most poorly governed city in the west.- V , Silverton Voters Hear Two Good Addresses At the mass meeting of Silver ton republicans B. G.
