'Mr, Slemp's appointment calls attention to the fact of!
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,

inuch bigger and richer than all tho rost of the stato Port

in wealth and population. Its ono big city is determined to

in the studio and beard Angela speaking
to him.
She turned immediately and went bnclt.
She wns afraid to trust Angela alone
with Paul for fear of what she might
say. Though she dreaded facing Paul,
nnd esneciallv before his sister, still it
was better thnn having Angela telling
things she ought not to.
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?

IRRIGATION AND RECALL
(Oregon -Journal.)
Nine hundred and thirty thousand
dollars o. bonds certified by the state
of Oregon, on tne Teal irrigation proj
ect, work on the project abandoned in
11)20, nnd ithe project lying there with
out water; and without settlers!
And the secret recallers put in their
petition . that Governor Pierce "depre
ciated" irrigation bonds."
Nine hundred and thirty thousand
dollars in bonds certified by the state,
and the project abandoned!
Did Pierce do that? It .was three
years after the. project was abandoned
that he, became governor.. . 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.
In their official petitions, the recall
ers also say that Pierco "has throttled
irrigation ( in Oregon." Did Pierce
"throttle",, the Teal project? 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.

Farmers are slowly awakening to the

realizing that thev must invade the re

prices and end individual competition.
They know they must control one com-
