Pertinent THERE is no disposition on the part of the Statesman, intoT-patpH in thfi outcome, to reopen the case to argument now that the ballots have been counted. Nor do we wish challenge on the charge that victory gives an attitude of superiority. Yet, in facing the facts, it will be interesting to hear from the admirably ardent, if some times biased, supporters of Governor Smith certain explan ations that should be forthcoming. What for instance, will now be said about the Literary Digest straw ballots, which presaged the outcome of the election with fair accuracy? This nation-wide poll was branded as the warped decoction of a few minions of idle rich voters to whom the Digest had submitted ballots. It was charged that the results had been garbled to make more pleasant atmosphere for the lost cause of HerbertJIoover. Where is the enthusiastic who held it impossible to split the solid south and now sees it overwhelmingly divided? txn.f the nlihi nf the man who found "wet sentiment II link " -'- - , ,. dominant in the nation to such a degree that the national election was, in fact, a plebiscite on prohibition? Do-the people of this semi-arid nation want a restoration of the M-vwHIncr to this vote? Authors of the "religious bigotry" propaganda that de filed and befouled an otherwise decent campaign have much to answer for. Perhaps never in the history of the ballot m ' - the United States has there been a more clearly drawn line wrwin man anrf lens real weight on campaifim issues, re ligious or otherwise, than in the recent battle of ballots. Religion was injected into the campaign for the same ulter - lor motives that bring other products of propaganda into the limelight. - ' , , It will be interesting, if not somewhat amusing, to hear the defense of those who lost good money on the proposition Via Ralpm. Marion eountv and Oresron would line up with Smith interests. Where are j to roll up this majority? Tnrieer. the hallotinflr on interesting surveying, yet notwithstanding the desperate four nf .Vitterincr some sonhomoric finality, we are convinced that, except for purposes of campaign thunder, the result was never very seriously or sincerely in doubt in any reput- able quarter. V Shoes and Hats - TT was a bad break that Al X one of his early speeches that the farmer had his markets rigged against him; that he sold in a free trade market and kAnntif (n a vrrnfMtfd market That he was taxed on Yiof mi his bead to the shoes Smith did not know at that time that shoes any part ofl which are made from leather are free or duty, ana mat tne f N TiPonl workine in the shoe factories of the United States are feeling the effects of foreign competition, running into mounting millions of imported shoes annually. Our Congressman Hawley, when he comes to prepare the tariff bill which, aa chairman of the ways and' means i committee; will be his,task, will of course take this fact into consideration. There must . be a protective tariff on shoes, 4 for the benefit of American workmen-- And as to the "hat on his head," too, there is something Tftiiieallv wromr. esnecially the straw hat. The duties, on tiAf.o must he raised. Along with our Salem district farmers needing higher protective rates on their cherries, walnuts,, filberts, etc., etc., the truck farmers of Florida and the other southern states need protectionon what they And they will get it. - Hoover will be everrbodVa president. Without respect to creed or sect or section or race or political complexion, no man or woman will feel that he has not a sympathetic friend and, a listening ear and a powerful protector of his rights, in the White House. - God reigns and the government at Washington still lives, and it will be such a government as every American will be proud to call his own.

JARDINE Secretary of Agriculture (William M. Jardine was born in Oneida county. Idaho, January 16,1879. He was graduated from the Agricultural college 01 Utan and later studied in the gradu ate school of the University of Illinois. He is the holder of honorary degrees from several universities. Working on the ranches of Idaho as a youth. Jardine afterwards taught agri culture at Utah and later at Mich igan Agricultural college. From 1918 to 1925 he was president of Kansas State Agricultural college and in the later year was appoint ed secretary of agriculture. His home is in Washington, D. C.)

Although there has been a substantial improvement in re ducing the number of dollars lost per $100 Insured, statistic indi cate that' farm barns and rural dwellings are appearing in the lists of larger losses more fre quently than heretofore. Spontaneous ignition or nay and other agricultural products, lightning, defective chimneys' and flues, careless' use of matches and smoking, combustile roofs, careless use and storage of 'gaso line and kerosene, and faulty wiring installations and improper use of electrical appliances, are the seven principal causes of farm flres and., constitute hazards SB 6 : - -m High Pressure Pete j ; . ; , , - j j ' . i- .. - , : :-' fv W'f:,rY AlS!., ?Sttxii$&&X, ISSSAt yCHou .r? 1 swrasMe oi;rw I T . -1: 1 1 1 A v A V S ATjl -5350 I I JJ t i W,ff7Ti.

Through its work on farm fire prevention and protection, the department stands ready to be of every pos sible service In this important field. Farm fire losses are a direct challenge to everyone interested in the conservation of the na tion's wealth and resources, and it behooves' every individual con cerned to do his utmost, through out the entire year, in reducing this fire waste.

Crowds may not be as larsree at the games. Perhaps there is a little less talk in -the barber shoes. If it is true that the Interest In baseball has at all declined it Is, of coarse, not due to a real , lessening of the love of the American people for the came, but it Is due to the" im mensely increased competition of other entertaining interests. The bettering of automobiles and their good roads, the s Increase in ef ficiency in the making of motion pictures and all other vast in rrease In varieties of entertain ment have all had their effect on what still remains: the great Amer ican game. KELLOGO Mr. -Kellogg, secretary of state, may persist in his determination to retire from office at the end of President from office at the end of President Coolidge's term. But if he does he can not retire from public approval and public appre ciation of his great record in the premier position of the cabinet. The Kellogg treaties, which states men hope will be the basis of per manent peace among the nations of the earth, have provided a last ing name and a lasting honor. CANDIDATES There is complaint on all side over certain bitter aspects of the presidential campaign. There is whispering In all camps as there is In every .campaign. The fact re' malnsthat the two major candi dates are conducting themselves In an admirable manner. No mali cious charges are hurled by the candidates themselves. Their atti tude toward each other is one of courtesy. This is the sort or thing we have a right to expect in a re public at its best. Followers ought to be influenced by the example set by leaders.

S Now, . with the defeat of the the Dunne bills, there is to be a a Bpecial meeting of the highway commission, and a resumption of paving work throughout the state. Fine! But this does not mean that the legislature will shirk its responsi bility in revamping the auto li cense law. This must and' will be done, with respect to jutsice for the owners of the old cars, and in other matters that need correc tion. And Sam Kozer must be brought .into the Joint committee conferences; so that no mistakes can enter into the new legislation. b V The voters marked the odd numbers and did their duty in killing all the measures U And this leaves up to the legis lature the duty of finding a way to balance the state budget.

But Smith had remained lowly In his language, while Hoover had learned in the schools and by the polish of the univers ities of experience.
