American political history that presidents havo divided j sharply into two classes. One type has seemed to subordin ate the presidency td the exigencies of party politics; the other type has subordinated politics and professional poli ticians to the presidency. ; . . A president wields a tremendous power through his ap pointments and influence. . Since the days of Andrew Jack son the spoils have turnished the , chiet executive with ready tools to establish a political organization. By manip ulation of this organization, the purely mechanical end of a political convention may sometimes be controlled. A presi dent who relies on , political intrigue thus may dictate his renomination. ',. . ' But there is a greater ;type of political power than that which patronago and machine-politics permits. It is the power" derived f rbm overwhelming support of the people, Theodore Ebosovclt and Grover Cleveland were notable ex amples of chief executives possessing such power. As presi dents tlloy found it f requbntly necessary to ride rough shod over the protessional politicians and their most im portant policies receiving divided party support, lioose velt's rocord ibeing later is more easily recalled. At the time of the 1904 convention, a majority of the machine po liticians were secrotly in favor of Mark Hanna's design to nominate another condidate for president. . ' ; I But tho attempt to get" rid of Roosevelt never had. a chance. Tho president with his Panama canal project, "nis settlement of the antliracito strike, his conservation policies and his trust-busting program, had established himself so strongly in tho hearts of tho people that attempts to defeat him wore stupid. Mr. Boosovolt playod tho finest politics. Ho admin istered the presidency in a most efficient fashion. In tho last analysis, tho greatest politics is sorvice. Purely pro fessional organization of job-holders is puny politics in comparison. A president who administers his great office for tho public interest can go down to defeat with a knowledgo that his record is written indelibly on the records of time. A president who uses his offico to lino up delegates for re nomination takes a groat chanco. Ho may lose the nomina tion in tho convention, and ho stakes his reputation in the scales of history. r Of CI ,837 federal income tax returns filed in Oregon, 37,G12 came from Multnomah county.

She turned immediately and went bnclt. She wns afraid to trust Angela alone with Paul for fear of what she might say.

But as eoon as Bhe went in and looked st Paul's face she knew some thing hnd happened. He wns standing with his back toward Angela and fin-rei-in? some. sheets of naner on his writ ing table. Tie still had his coat end hat on with the hat tipped back on his hlnck hair nnd a hollow, far-away look in his eyes.- It was that same pre-oc-eupied expression that she had faced 20 minutes before as he stdod on the curb of Fifth avenue. She faltered, then went slowly for ward. ' "Are you tired?" .she asked, sne touched the lapel of liis coat. "Here, let me- take your coat and hat." He let her take them, hut. be did not answer. Then slowly he turned and u-ent tnwnrri the hedroom. Lois fol lowed him with her eyes. Then immcd-' lately she turned to Angela. Hut An geln wns sitting looking at the evening paper which Paul had brought home and nnnarcntlv had no part in the little scene which had just transpired. But was she feigning, Lois wondered? Had she in those few minutes told iPiml something that had upset him? Iis walked toward her with hatred in her heart. She looked won on Angela with n fierce longing to break forth into a scathing tirade thajt would voice the long pent-up feelings in her heart. But she stopped short. Her arms were drawn tightly about Paul's cont and soft hat. What if Angeln had not said anything;! What if it was because he had seen her with Hastings in the taxi? Tomorrow Paul's Grief.

It wus near ly five ..years after the $030,000 of bondB .on , the Teal project was certified by the stato that Pierco entered office.

Did ho eawso the collapse of the bonds solemn ly certified by the state of Oregon? The recallers should recall tlieta ne. tltions aoo correct them. And : while they are at it, why not do something to breathe the breath of life into the Teal project with its certification of nearly a million bonds by the state ot Oregon? seeing that they are experts, in fi nancing irrigation projects. fequniiy blundering was their attempt to humbug the people into belief that the recall did not originate in I'ortlnnd.
